Just yesterday, I was up late, totally obsessed with Tom Andrew Felton's (the actor behind Draco Malfoy) stunning looks, scrolling through videos until I lost track of time.
Today, I woke up to a whole new reality. Did I somehow travel through time or something? You know how they say you dream about what's on your mind? Something's definitely off.
In my usual style of never being far from my phone, I tried to get up but everything was a blur. I couldn't see a thing!
“Luke! Aurora's awake!” a clear and melodious female voice called out, grabbing all of my attention.
I felt myself held gently in someone's arms, and even though my vision was fuzzy, the scent of flowers enveloped me, instinctively drawing me toward the source of the voice.
“She's probably hungry; you've got your work cut out for you, Cissy,” a voice deep and magnetic as a cello spoke, and though I couldn’t make out his face, I could tell a long-haired man was approaching.
He took me into his arms, his grey eyes locking intently onto mine.
I felt like the most precious jewel in the world.
Without thinking, I reached out and touched his flowing, silky, platinum blonde hair.
“Luke! Both Aurora and Draco like you better!”
This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.
The woman named “Cissy” teased, her voice carrying a hint of envy.
The man smiled indulgently. “I'm just trying to make things easier for you, ready, Cissy?”
“Mm…”
It finally clicked—I had turned into a baby.
As a “Harry Potter” series fan, the names Cissy and Luke couldn’t be more familiar...
Cissy—Narcissa Malfoy, formerly Narcissa Black.
Luke—Lucius Malfoy, the current head of the Malfoy family, father to Draco Malfoy.
Connecting the dots with some basic reading comprehension, I realized I had somehow become the little lady of the Malfoy family!
Having read countless fanfics, I’d always fantasized about being connected to the Malfoys.
Their iconic platinum blonde beauty in the films is undeniably striking.
I’ve lost count of how many times I've watched “Harry Potter: I am Mrs. Malfoy.”
The woman held my hand, and for the first time, I touched…
It was like an electric spark; the previously sleeping boy opened his eyes, grey like Lucius’s.
Our eyes met.
He didn’t cry; instead, he smiled sweetly at me.
“Cissy, let Draco be the big brother; he can protect her better that way.”
“But isn’t Aurora older?”
“It’ll be our little secret. Just don't tell them,” Lucius coaxed, his cunning nobility evident. It didn't take long for Narcissa to agree to his plan.
“That prophecy, that person...
“And Aurora, like me, is a magical creation meant to change the Malfoys' dwindling fortunes. If anyone finds out…”
“Aurora hasn’t been recognized by the family tree…” Narcissa looked across the room, visibly upset.
As a baby with far vision, I clearly saw my name was not on the family tree.
“Aurora wasn’t born from a mother, and she has no blood relation to either of us…but I will treat Aurora as my own, just like my father did with me,” Lucius reassured her, holding the woman close.
Lucius faced the wall, muttering something.
“It's the Confundus Charm…” Suddenly, my name appeared on the wall.
“From now on, Aurora will be the adopted daughter of the Malfoy family, and I will protect you all, no matter the cost…”
Though I couldn’t see his face, I could feel the weight of the moment.
Babies are sensitive to their surroundings, and Draco suddenly started crying.
The two new parents scrambled to soothe him.
The wizarding world at this moment was far from as serene as it seemed.
