Hey guys welcome to my new story 'The Rings Choose The One For You'! I hope you enjoy it!
Warnings: This is a Fem!Harry story so it's gonna be a bit off-canon. Also this is a HarryxDraco story too so no like no read. Oh and Lucius Malfoy is not part of this story. Lucius was sentenced to Azkaban for being a Death Eater even though Harry vouched for the Malfoy family and he died there too after a month or so. Yeah I know not the best way to deal with Lucius but I don't like his character and I felt that he was unneeded for this story.
Also, for Harry's name in this story it's either Hariah, Harrah, or Harriet. Personally I want to keep Harry's name as close as possible to Harry. I'm leaning towards Hariah because I kind of hate Harriet and Harrah reminds me of Hera from Percy Jackson and I hate the Hera character so Hariah it is! If you think I should change it please put it in a review or PM me please?
Disclaimer: I, sadly, do not own Harry Potter. That honor belongs to J.K. Rowling.
Dream:
Draco was standing in a sunny, large field that he knew was right by the Manor. He was barefoot and wearing white dress pants with a white button up dress shirt. He looked around trying to figure out why he was in the field. As far as he knew no one had been in this field since he was a small child which greatly added to his confusion as to why he was in the field.
"Dragon! There you are?" Draco felt an unfamiliar weight tackling him from the side making them both land on the soft grass. A musical laughter filled his ears as he fell slowly to the ground; his arm wrapping around the weight protecting it from getting hurt from the fall.
"Honey," He said a laugh filled mocking tone. "Aren't you supposed to be staying off your feet like the doctor said you should? I don't want anything to happen to you." His tone had turned slightly serious at his last sentence but it was full of caring.
Suddenly a face that was so achingly familiar it cut him like a knife appeared right in front of his face pouting.
"But Dragon I just missed you!" the black haired beauty said poutingly (Is that even a word? IDK). Draco smiled and leaned his face closer to hers so that their lips brushed together. His lips then pushed against hers in a passionate kiss. He felt such an odd over-powering emotion pushing him to keep kissing her.
And with this unknown emotion controlling him, the kiss quickly turned heated
Draco, suddenly, shot up awake breathing mind was completely befuddled because of his dream. The dream had more than a little freaked him out. Who was that girl and why was she so familiar? He gasped in air as he struggled to understand his dream.
He sat up in his bed and shook his head to try and clear out the rest of the dream. He didn't need this, especially not today. He sighed and rubbed his face with his left hand to wake himself up.
"Draco." He started when his mother knocked tentatively on his door and entered his room. He had noticed her footsteps walking down the hall or even her starting to open his door. "Draco we need to talk."
"What about mother?" Draco said. He was still not used to his mother being so quiet and caring. He was used to her being meaner and more un-nurturing. Apparently she had used the such emotions as a front when Voldemort had been alive so no one would mess with her or her family.
"We need to talk about your eighteenth birthday and your engagement." She said in a soft tone.
Draco's eyes widened. "What are you talking about mother?"
"Draco, would you come with me for a minute?" Narcissa Malfoy reached out her hand for Draco to hold as he nodded and allowed her to lead him from his room and to a tower long abandoned in the Malfoy Manor that Draco had been forbidden from entering until his eighteenth birthday.
"Mother what were you talking about when that we needed to talk about 'my engagement'? I'm not engaged. Wait. You didn't?" He gave his mother a small accusatory look but when she laughed merrily his look turned from an accusatory one to a confused one.
"Oh Draco no! You're not in an arranged engagement!" She said still laughing. "I wanted to talk about you getting engaged before your eighteenth birthday." She smiled at him but his mind was still as confused as it was when he woke up, and he did not like it at all.
"But mother. My eighteenth birthday is tomorrow. How am I supposed to get engaged in less than twenty-four hours?" Draco said to his mother. His eyes roamed the room that they were standing in.
It was round with only a small pedestal in the middle of the room. It had huge windows on each wall. He looked out of the east wall and he could see the field from his dream. It was overridden with wild grasses since no one had taken care of it in years.
"Draco, did your father ever tell you about the family rings?" His mother said stirring him from his thoughts as he looked at the field.
Draco shook his head and looked at his mother and said "Do you mean the family signet ring that father used to wear?" He glanced at his mother left hand and saw the family signet ring. His mother had become the head of the family when his father had died seeing as Draco was not of age yet.
His mother shook her head. "No Draco I do not mean the signet rings. I meant did your father ever tell you about the family engagement rings?" Draco shook his head; his eyes wide. Narcissa sighed. "Draco the family engagement rings were crafted long ago at the beginning of the Malfoy family by Orion Malfoy. He wanted to find his perfect bride so he commissioned for the rings to be made by the master goldsmith of the era. He placed several heavy duty charms on the ring so that all you had to do was hold the rings in your hand and say what you wish for your bride to be like. Like her personality, her morals, everything you can think of. You can even say a specific girl if you believe she is your perfect bride, but ultimately if the rings do not believe she is perfect for you it will find another that is better for you. Do you understand Draco?" Draco nodded and his mother handed him the box from the pedestal still speaking. "I need you to take the rings from the box and do exactly what I've told you. Tell the rings what you want in a wife and then the ring will disappear. Now I'm going to wait outside the room and in the staircase. Come out when you're finished, ok?"
Draco nodded and gently opened the box as his mother quietly left the room. He wanted her to stay, but he knew she would decline because it was a violation to his privacy. He looked into the box and saw the two rings. They were both slightly plain. They looked as if they were made of a metal that was a mixture of titanium and a whitish gold. He carefully picked them up and set the box back on the pedestal. He sighed, better get it over with.
I wish….. I wish for a girl I can be myself with. One that won't want me for my money or power or judge me for my past mistakes. One that I could always be happy with and never bore me. One that could see me for everything I am, not a Death Eater or a Slytherin. Someone I could talk with for hours on end and never get bored with ever. She could understand me and I could understand her. There could be no secrets between us. Someone I could have a loving family with. And finally I want someone who completes me and I complete her. All throughout his wish he had been thinking of the girl from his dream last night. He knew that in the dream he was happy and whoever it was he was with she was who completed him. And… whether it was a dream or vision or whatever it was I wish that whoever I was with in that dream please if she's real help me find her, please.
He looked down at his hand just in time to see both rings disappear from his palm. He started when he felt a cold presence around his left hand ring finger. He gasped as he looked down at his finger as the bulkier of the two rings appeared on his left hand ring finger.
The ring that used to have no gems on it at all before he made his wish. Now they're was a line of small emeralds and small jade stones that appeared to be immersed inside the metal with only the top of the gems being shown. The metal had also darkened slightly so that it didn't really the bright white gold from before; it was more like titanium.
Suddenly Draco felt a sharp pain rush to his forehead and he collapsed from the pain. As he collapsed he could faintly hear the voice from his dream whisper frantically 'Dragon!' as he hit the ground. His eyes closed and darkness over took him and he was lost to the world.
