Firstly, Happy New Year!! :D I hope you've been enjoying your holidays as much as I have. :)
I'd like to thank everyone for their patience - as you know I've been away and haven't been able to update - and also reward it: Chapter 12 of "Innocent" is up! :D
Here's an excerpt:
“Yes, Father,” Draco muttered and fled. He walked quickly - not daring to run but Father was in a bad mood - out of the drawing room, down the corridor to the foyer and then up the large staircase, down another long hallway and into his bedroom. He crossed the room, ignoring Roquefort’s squeaks from inside his cage, and ducked into his bathroom.
His reflection stared back; a thin face with a pointed chin and his father’s grey eyes. His father’s face, just like Aunt Bella had said during their last visit, though not quite as blank. I’m getting better at it, though, he thought proudly. Better than Hydrus, anyway.
He reached for the little silver pot on the marble bench-top and scooped up a lump of gel. “Bit much, isn’t it?” his mirror asked.
“No,” Draco snapped, sleeking a loose hair into place. When he was finished, he looked just like the photographs he’d seen of his father at a young age. Even his expression matched; calm and content, if a little bored. Good, now- CRACK! “Dobby!” Draco gasped, jumping away from the little elf. “Don’t do that!”
I'll put Chapter 13 up a little earlier than usual - in a few days, instead of the usual week, and then the updates will be weekly after that. :)
Thanks again for your patience!
