                        “Narcissa?”

Lucius speaks very quietly as he approaches the youngest (and by far the most beautiful) Black sister, tone sweet and expression, as it ALWAYS is, relatively arrogant.

He has an especially IMPORTANT idea in mind, after all, and so when he slides gracefully into one seat to regard her with his ice-coloured eyes, he does his best not to make his presence overpowering. He doesn’t want to be as  unpleasant or as provocative as he is with dear Bella when he sees her out of school these days.

Narcissa is in the year below him, dainty and sweet and, for Lucius’ purposes, utterly perfect. And he will be perfect for HER as well.

It has been decided, by now, that between the Blacks and the Malfoys, a marriage would be positively ideal. After all, the Blacks are both Noble and Ancient, and although the Malfoys are a Pureblood family, they are so terribly young in comparison.

And Narcissa Malfoy, too - she is a beautiful woman, capable, intelligent, eloquent and charming. Their children will be strong and no doubt accomplished, later in  life. 

She's not precisely Lucius' type, of course - she seems  lovely enough, but hardly submissive at all, and moreover, she is very... 

                                                  Womanly. 

Still, homosexual endeavours, enjoyable as they may be  for play, can hardly be considered in terms of the marriage bed, and he will simply have to leave his taste for a submissive partner, preferably a male one, until after they are married. 

His father would murder him if he were to waste his seed where it would not be viable. 

Speaking of waste, however, Lucius now needs to dispense some time in meeting with the standards and affections of  Narcissa's family members - Alessia is the obvious choice. She is the least likely to attempt his murder simply for greeting her politely, after all. 

He slides into the seat across from her in the library, and, with a neat movement, he sets an apple from the kitchens beside her.
