CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Draco only returned when he was sure that Glorfindel had gone hunting and would be absent for a while. He sat at the kitchen table a bottle Miruvor and a glass before him. With a steady hand he poured himself a large measure.

“Family honour” he downed the drink in one gulp.

“Arrogance, purity and the wizard way” another glassful was swallowed.

“Bloody Harry Potter” a third glass was emptied, there was now very little left in the bottle much to Draco’s disappointment.

“Daddy dearest may his bones rot” and those last few drops were gone as well.

The door opened letting in a draft, Draco didn’t even notice he was no longer alone. His two visitors looked at him in disbelief and ventured further into the room.

“Draco” the tone used was incredulous.

Draco looked blurrily in the direction of the voice and Harry Potter came into view “Why can’t I see pink elephants like everyone else” he moaned.

“He’s pissed as a newt” Harry declared gleefully.

Legolas picked up the empty bottle and sniffed it “Miruvor one of the stronger varieties.”

“God your really here have you come to rescue me?” Draco slurred hopefully.

“Only from the demon drink” Harry grinned.

“Where is Glorfindel?” Legolas enquired.

“Out slaughtering the wild life” Draco then continued pathetically “the room is spinning wanna die.”

“That can be arranged” Glorfindel was not amused at finding Draco in such a state.

“Oh Daddy are you going to spank me?” Draco fluttered his eyelashes.

“You deserve it” with a curt nod to Legolas and Harry he slung a squealing Draco over his shoulder.

“I’m going to be sick” Draco threatened.

Glorfindel ignored him and told his unexpected guests “I’ll be with you in a few minutes.”

Upstairs Glorfindel dumped Draco on his bed, then removed his clothes and tucked him in. He looked down at the pale youth and his anger drained away.

“Daddy” Draco was tearful.

“Go to sleep” Glorfindel said as he sat on the bed and took one of Draco’s hands in his.

Harry watched Legolas as he skinned and prepared the three rabbits. That Glorfindel had dropped in his rush to reach Draco and remove him from there sight.

“Pain, death and life, all bound to need, arrow and the knife” Legolas caught Harry’s eye.

“Yet all life is precious” Harry questioned.

“The Lord and his Lady fitted our world for the needs of all. Nothing will be wasted the flesh will be eaten, the fur will made into clothing and the bones turned into glue” Legolas said seriously.

“Death should never be wanton or needless, though never life at any price” Glorfindel was back and he looked stressed.

“He is not bound to you yet” Legolas stated.

“I will give Draco as much time as I am able” Glorfindel’s eyes flashed “my many faults do not include rape.”

“Haldir’s brothers will not be happy” Legolas commented.

“I’m not concerned with there happiness, they have got and will get there wishes that should be enough for them” Glorfindel retrieved a bottle from the cupboard pulled its cork out and took a swig.

“That will not help matters” Legolas cautioned.

“I didn’t think it would” Glorfindel took another mouthful and put the bottle away.

“Are you staying?” He asked.

“At least overnight if you have no objections” Legolas replied.

“Stay as long as you like, both of you” Glorfindel smiled.

While Harry was sitting with Darco, Glorfindel took the opportunity to speak privately with Legolas.

“All was not as it should have been between Draco and Lucius, I have grave concerns. The boy has been abused in the worse possible way” Glorfindel’s face was pale.

“He has told you this, you are certain” Legolas was shocked at such a disclosure.

“I am certain” Glorfindel then quickly explained about the night before and the following morning ending with “what Draco really needs is a father not a lover.”

“You know little of children and less of ones damaged like this” said Legolas.

“This task has fallen to me and I will not fail him” Glorfindel’s tone was determined.

“What are you going to do?” Legolas asked.

“I’ve no idea” Glorfindel sighed “he is totally helpless without magic, he can’t cook, clean, hunt or light a fire come to that.”

Legolas reached into his shirt and palmed the Evening Star his decision made he removed the necklace and held it out to Glorfindel.

“This will not help him with the practicalities of everyday living but it will sooth and help to heal his deeper pain.”

Glorfindel could not believe his eyes “It was lost” he murmured.

“And now it is found” Legolas dropped it into Glorfindel hand.

“Thank you, I will return it when its work is done” he curled his fingers around jewel.

When Draco opened his eyes and saw Harry sitting by his bedside everything came rushing back and he groaned. Since the breaking of his silence about Lucius, he had discovered a burning need to talk to someone who would understand. He couldn’t decide if it was good or bad luck that the arrival of Harry had given him that one person who just might understand what he had gone through.

Reluctantly Draco asked “Is it true were you abused by your relatives?”

Harry became wary “Why do you want to know?”

“I just do” Draco said stubbornly.

“I would say lets have a drink and talk about it but I don’t think Glorfindel would approve” Harry tried to relax “I was beaten, starved and locked away. My aunt and uncle weren’t fit to look after dogs never mind children.”

“How can you say that so calmly” Draco asked.

“Years of practise and the fact I’m now free of them” Harry nibbled the tip of his finger.

“Have you forgiven them?” Questioned Draco.

“Hell no, I’m not a saint” Harry paused “I did manage to forgive Dudley we get on a lot better now.”

“Why him and not the other two” Draco asked with interest.

“He was a product of his upbringing, Dudley is a different person now, he thinks for himself” Harry smiled.

“Dumbledore knew how they treated you” for all its phrasing it was not a question.

“Yep, the rose coloured spectacles were smashed pretty quickly where he was concerned” Harry replied bluntly.

“So why did you follow his lead” Draco was curious.

“Because whatever troubles the magical world dropped in my lap, I was better off with magic in my life and friends at my side” Harry sighed “why are you so interested anyway?”

Draco ignored the question “Did your uncle ever touch you?”

“You mean apart from breaking bones, what is it you’re really asking Draco?” Harry’s heart was sinking.

“Did your uncle walk into your bedroom one night tell you that you looked sweet enough to fuck and do exactly that” Draco seemed to shrink into himself.

Careful to keep his pity concealed Harry replied “No I was to strange and dirty for his tastes.”

“You know nothing about dirt” Draco said quietly.

“Perhaps” Harry conceded “when did it start?”

“The touching began when I was about three, the first time he raped me was on my seventh birthday” Draco had always been pale but now his skin was white.

“I should have killed the bastard when I had the chance” Harry gritted out.

“I wouldn’t have thanked you” Draco mumbled.

“I don’t know what to say except that it will never completely go away but in time you will learn to cope with it” Harry’s voice was calm.

“Thank you for your honesty” Draco attempted to smile and failed.

“Have you told Glorfindel?” Harry asked.

Draco plucked at a bed sheet “He said it’s not my fault.”

“He’s right but it doesn’t help much does it?” Harry’s tone was weary.

“No” Draco bit his lip “I’m not going to let Lucius ruin what’s left of my life.”

“Good” Harry smiled.

The rest of the day went pretty quickly and by early evening it was mutually decided all would have an early night. Legolas and Harry went upstairs first; in there bedroom an oil lamp flickered giving the room a cosy glow. Legolas was clad in only his leggings and looked beautiful in the mellow lighting.

“Where is the Evening Star?” Harry asked.

“I have loaned it to Glorfindel, Draco is in great need of it” Legolas replied earnestly.

“I hope it brings some ease to him” Harry said truthfully.

“You know then?” Legolas wasn’t surprised.

“We talked Draco has suffered something I don’t think I would have recovered from” Harry shuddered.

“You would have my love, you are strong” Legolas took Harry in comforting embrace.

Harry kissed Legolas sweetly.

Draco left Glorfindel to take care of the fire, in the safety of his room he stared out of the window his emotions still raw and tender. He turned as the door opened to find Glorfindel watching him.

“Why are you in my room” he asked for want of something better to say.

“We both need rest and if I leave you to your nightmares neither of us will get any” Draco made no comment to that or Glorfindel closing the door behind him.

“I have something that will help you” Glorfindel spoke quietly.

Draco looked at the necklace hanging from the elf’s hand and turned back to the window dismiss fully. Moments later he sensed Glorfindel standing behind him but stubbornly ignored him. With a great deal of gentleness the Evening star was placed around his neck.

Draco turned to face Glorfindel “How is this bit of tat supposed to help me?”

“Call it charmed or spelled if you like but it will help to heal you and give you peace if you let it” Glorfindel moved towards the bed.

Draco had no idea why he was starting to trust this elf but he was, so he followed him to the bed and slept peacefully through the night in his arms.
