Falling Masks
Recap
•••
"Repeat after me." Theo said agian as he handed Draco's wedding ring to Clara. Clara smiled, taking the ring, ready to say the words. "I Clara Smith, take Draco Lucius Malfoy to be my husband, for richer, or for poorer..." Theo said pausing and gesturing at Clara to repeat. Clara smiled "I Clara Smithe take Draco Lucius Malfoy to be my husband for richer or for poo... for richer or for po... richer..." Clara said. Draco glared at her. Why couldn't Clara say poorer.
"What Smith you wouldn't stay with Draco in sickness or poverty?" Theo questioned little to amused.
Clara glared at him. "Of course not! Why would I want a poor husband.!?" Clara screamed. Everyone gasped and Draco dropped his hands from Clara's.
•••
Draco just glared at her. While Clara looked confused, upset, and angry. It didn't help that the murmuring had gotten louder. "Zabini have your men make sure the guest leave. Their gifts will be owl back to them." Draco told Balise. Who's security company had been hired to secure the wedding.
As soon as everyone was off the Malfoy property. Leaving behind only the bride and groom. As well as Clara's family, Narcissa, Theo, Pansy and Hermione. Clara was trying to get Draco to listen to her but he was not having it.
"So let me get this straight. If I was to loose all my families money. You would what? Leave me and take my child away. Because you couldn't be married to a poor man? Is that it." Draco asked. His grey eyes looked like a wild storm. That only wanted to drown Clara in its waves.
Clara huffed in amusement. "Oh Draco be serious. You are so rich that can't happen. Plus you are about to married a pureblood witch. So your mother isn't going to disown you. That is why I picked you..." Clara froze as everyone just glared at her.
"What am I saying?" Clara asked herself. "Looks like the truth." Pansy said dropping her flowers and going to stand near Hermione.
Clara just followed the raven haired witch all the way to Hermione. Clara's eyes went black and she charged forward and before anyone could stop her. She slapped Hermione in the face. So hard that Hermione fell on the grass.
"This is all your fault. You fucken mudblood! I thought I had gotten rid of your tilfy little hands!" Clara screamed.
Hermione was on the ground with a dump. Everyone held frozen for a second. While Draco was by Hermione's side. Helping her up and making sure she wasn't hurt.
Narcissa was the one who had her wand out first. "Don't you think because you are carring my son's child. That I won't try to hex you. How dare you insult and hurt Hermione. She is more of a woman and a daughter. Then you will ever be." Narcissa said voice as cold as ice.
"You dare insult her. After she gave you a job. Do you have any respect?" Draco asked. Clara rolled her eyes. "Respect for her. Do you know what a nightmare it was to work for her. For a mudblood. But I told myself. It would be all worth it. Because I would have you. Draco Lucius Malfoy near me. Do you really think I would come to London for another reason." Clara told everyone.
Theo huffed "So you plan on getting a job with Hermione. To then get near Draco?" Theo asked. Clara clapped. "Finaly someone has some kind of brains. I saw a picture of them both during my last year at Ilvermorny. It was during Draco's first game... Huh what did you all do to me? It was you wasn't mudblod." Clara said starting to get confused again.
"We didnt do anything. Hermione didn't do anything. She is not like you. She is a true lady. And if you want keep all your teeth. I would stop calling our Hermione that word." Narcissa told Clara.
Clara started to laugh. "Oh please, a lady. That thing is just like all of us. Looking who is the best wizard to marry. First she dates Viktor Krum, then Ronald Weasley but since he was poor, she dropped him for Oliver Wood. Now she is ruining my wedding. To try to get Draco Malfoy. The slut loves to ride her brooms. But he would never marry a tilfy little mudbloood slut!" Clara said screaming her pale skin fully red.
Clara's mother come to her side and pull her back. In fear that her daughter would get hexed till the next century for her big mouth. "Clara be quiet and calm down. This is not good for the babe." Mrs. Smith said in concern.
But all this just made Clara laugh even more. "What babe? Do you really think I would loose my body for a fucken child. Fuck no! But it was the only way to get Draco to marry me. I knew he would do the right thing." Clara said pulling out her wand. And pointing it to her belly. Taking out the fake pregnancy charm. Everyone just glared at her. Who even was this woman.
Hermione kept holding Draco back. He was ready to charge at Clara. But the person Hermione didnt hold back was Pansy. Who slap Clara twice in the face. "How dare you lie to Draco. How could you? And Narcissa told you to stop calling Hermione the m word." Pansy said indignant. Pansy was ready to slap the witch again. But Narcissa was the one to stop her. "Enough Pansy show your class unlike her. Now tell us how did you make our family three grow a branch?" Narcissa demanded.
Clara just rolled her eyes and looked amuused at the question. "You Malfoy's aren't the only once. Who know a thing or two of the dark arts. My grandfather was one of Grindelwald followers. He thought me a thing or two." Clara said annoyed and throwing the ring off her finger. Finally noticing what was making her tell the truth.
"Get out! You and your family get the fuck out of Malfoy Manor and all of our lives! Now!" Draco screamed. Harry, and Blaise made sure everyone of the Smith family left the Malfoy estate.
All while Theo took Draco inside the Manor. Surely to get him a drink. As Hermione was been held by Narcissa. Who was more worried for Draco and Hermione's poor face that was starting to turn red. Then for her own nerves.
"Hermione send Bill Weasley a patronus. I want him to check out my family tapestry this moment. If that bitch did something to it. I want it removed." Draco informed. His orders were not rude but she could hear the anger in his voice.
Hermione send off the patronus to Bill Weasley. Bill was there in five minuets. After telling him where to go. Her attention turned to Theo. What had Theo done? What had even happened today. This is not how things were suppose to go.
