A New Life

<Narcissa Malfoy POV>

She glanced at the clock on the wall. It was time for the meeting. Lucius had been very invested in this case. If Heir Peverell refused to help him, the Malfoys would lose a lot of money and power to the dark families. They had already suffered enough under the Dark Lord's reign, and they couldn't afford to lose more.

She had been sitting in an empty meeting cabin alone, waiting for Lucius to bring Heir Peverell.

Lucius, on the other hand, was talking to a man with a charming smile in the bar. She recognized him as one of Lucius bed warmers.

She sighed and looked away from the window. She silently thought about her life and what she should have done instead of obeying her family.

It had been hard years for her. She graduated from Hogwarts, got married to a man who loved another man and never touched her after having Draco, as he only wanted an heir from her. Then the Dark Lord, whom her husband supported in the first wizarding war lost to a newborn baby.

She pitied herself and smiled sadly at her fate. She now understood Andromeda, her sister who had married a Muggle-born. She had a loving family. Loving family? She didn't know anything about that.

Her childhood was wasted on fake pretenses of noble houses. Love was something she never had, even her sisters didn't like her. Her own son Draco had become more and more like Lucius and started disrespecting her. He mirrored his father's etiquette, mannerisms, and ideals.

She wished to be born again, she wished to have love.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Lucius then entered the cabin with a handsome boy whom she guessed was Heir Peverell.

She stood up and greeted him warmly, to which Heir Peverell froze a little, but then continued greeting her. She didn't mind his hesitation. She knew he was probably wary of her, as lady malfoy.

The meeting was about to begin, but she didn't know why, she was having thoughts about Heir Peverell. He had striking blue eyes and blonde hair, and a confident posture. She felt her heart beat.

'I am a married woman, having thoughts about a thirteen year old boy. I have fallen a lot, haven't I?' she thought to herself, but her exterior demeanor didn't change.

Lucius kept talking to Heir Peverell, who was just absent-mindedly nodding to his requests. Then he again looked at her with those blue eyes, and a single tear fell from her eyes. She quickly wiped it away, hoping no one noticed. She was strong, she could handle anything. She kept telling herself that.

Heir Peverell then looked at Lucius who was talking about the Nott family's deals and said, "Can I say something, Lord Malfoy?" It was not a request or a question, it was an order for him to stop. She understood that quickly.

Lucius then stopped and looked at Heir Peverell questioningly, wondering what he had to say.

Heir Peverell looked me in the eyes, with an expression I didn't quite understand. It was something that made my heart ache, as if he cared about me. He said, "Are you happy with a man like him? I want you to be mine." I was shocked after hearing him. He was thirteen and he wanted me? Why? An old woman? I couldn't understand anything. Lucius was also dumbfounded, I was sure He had not expected that Heir Peverell would ignore him and ask his wife to be his. I couldn't answer that, could I? STOP, DAMN IT, THESE TEARS. why am I crying? I just met this boy. I couldn't believe what was happening, it was like my soul longed for him?

They didn't stop. I used my occlumency at full power, to not break down crying. I had not expected to receive a proposal, by him.

Heir Peverell walked over to me and patted my head. He used magic, and my tears disappeared. His hand was still on my head. It felt really nice, but wasn't I twice his age? Why was he treating me like this? He leaned closer and whispered in my left ear, "Just nod and you'll be mine forever." I couldn't stop myself this time and nodded. I wanted to be his? Why? Did I crave for love so much that a pat on the head won me over?

Lucius wanted to stop me, but then he shuddered in fear, looking at Heir Peverell. Weird. But Heir Peverell spoke again, this time to Lucius. "I will let go of all the debt, three million galleons to the Ashwood family, and help you out of this ordeal, if you give me Narcissa." He said my name, and it sounded so nice.

Lucius was stunned at that, and I couldn't believe what I heard. Was a woman like me worth it? I wanted to stop him from making such a losing deal for me. "Heir Peverell..."

"It's Agustus, just Agustus for you." He didn't let me finish and said that with a smile. My heart. His eyes were again focused on me, and I couldn't say anything.

Lucius then spoke up. "It's my wife you are talking about, Heir Peverell."

Agustus then cut him off and said, "I might let you live, Lucius, because right now I really want to kill you for not accepting my deal. You know I could marry her as Lady Malfoy." Marry me? No, no, no. I didn't hear that correctly. Why would he? I was sure noble girls were lining up for him. Why would he marry me?

Lucius didn't think twice about this and said, "I apologize, Heir Peverell. It's a deal."

I was useless for him anyway, infact he gained a lot making this deal with Agustus. But why does he appeared so scared?

I was speechless. Why was Lucius afraid of Agustus?

After that, goblins brought the contract of my marriage divorce with Lucius, and now he had no control over me. Now I was back to being Narcissa Black. The day couldn't get any better. I was so happy, tears appeared in my eyes again.

<Narcissa Black POV>

Agustus looked at me with a gentle smile. I rushed up and hugged him. "Thank you," I said, as he ran his fingers through my hair and I closed my eyes.

He pushed me back and kissed me passionately on my lips. A boy about the same age as my son was kissing me, and I returned his kiss with the same passion.

We stopped and separated after a few minutes, and he gently kissed my forehead. He had already given me so much affection. I buried my head in his chest again, he was taller than me. Weren't we going too fast? Honestly, I didn't care.

He then apparated me to Drakul House, where we talked a lot about each other. He told me that I could see Draco, but I denied him. He would be okay without me. I now wanted to live my life with Agustus. He might not marry me and keep me as his mistress, but I was still so happy.

After that, he wrote a letter to Lord Black, my grandfather, requesting a meeting. I didn't know about the contents of the letter, but it had been a long time since I last saw my grandfather, Arcturus Black, and I was kind of nervous meeting him after the divorce. But Agustus would be with me. I spent a few days at the Drakul Manor with Agustus. We spent time together. He was so amazing with a sword. Alfred, his butler, taught him every day.

Suddenly, a week passed and we met with my grandfather, who looked really unwell. Lucius had hidden my grandfather's illness from me. He was dying, but Agustus then proposed something that I couldn't believe I would hear in my life.

He looked at my grandfather and said, "I want to marry Narcissa Black and make her Lady Ashwood."

My head went blank. He wanted to marry me, give me a house. "No, I refuse, Augustus. You have done so much for me and loved me so much. I don't want a noble house."

I was hugging him. He ran his fingers through my hair as always and I felt loved as always when I was with him. Suddenly, some magic covered us and I felt as if I had deaged. I felt reborn.

Agustus summoned a mirror and I saw myself. I looked younger, like I had deaged ten years. I looked like when I was twenty. He could do anything, couldn't he? He was a miracle that happened to me.(upload img here)

He then pecked my nose and said, "I am going to marry you, Narcissa, whether you like it or not. Though there may be more." He looked uncomfortable, but I didn't let him go. How could I?

I was trapped with him forever and I didn't want to go out. Never.

He healed my grandfather and signed a marriage contract with the Black family. The Black family couldn't break our marriage and had no authority over me. I was now his.

We were still not married as we hadn't signed the contract and taken the vows, as he wanted to marry Dora first, his girlfriend.

And I was not in a hurry. He was thirteen years old. I was already his. We shared the same bed in Drakul manner after that. Nothing happened, just a few kisses and cuddles, but it was more than anything that had ever happened to me. I had a new home and a loving husband.

I was very happy. I would have to share him with his girlfriend Dora, but I didn't mind. My lost life had returned to me. God had sent Agustus to save me from my fate.

________________________________________

I know Agustus was out of character, I know some of you hated the chapter but it's my book, and I'm a 17 year old boy who thinks with his dick and I'm sure I warned you guys a lot about the quality of this fic. So Narcissa is in. Romance is really tough to write as I always make it cringe. And trust me when I say this, I nearly dropped this fic after reading this chapter due to the amount of cringe it had, but the lemons kept me going and I would see this fic to the end however bad it goes. Share your thoughts about this chapter and how can I improve writing romance.

Question:

Will you forgive your soul mate if (he/she) cheats on you? But if you break up with (him/her ), you'll have to remain single for the rest of your life. ( Personally I wouldn't forgive)
