Hermione nodded her eyes locked with Dracos. Her kissing him was counted as cheating and cheating broke the marriage contract and breaking the marriage contract meant loss of powers. Hermione didn't think it was entirely fair though. The marriage law was meant to have brought soul-mates together not break them up. She knew that Dean was not her soul-mate, she was not attracted to him at all and felt only friendship to the man. However she loved Draco with all her heart and the Ministry was not going to keep them apart if she had anything to do with it. She really didn't care about her powers as long as she had her Prince.

Draco looked confused as he lifted his wand and said "Accio Pillow." Sure enough his pillow came whizzing into his hand.

"What? How? Why? You shouldn't be able to do that!" Hermione exclaimed in utter confusion. There was a loud 'CRACK' and Tabitha appeared before them.

"This just arrived for you Master" She said quickly, handing him a envelope and disappearing again. Draco opened it in haste after seeing it was from the Minister of Magic.

Dear Mr Malfoy,

Your presence along with Mrs. Malfoy and Mrs. Thomas is requested immediately at the Ministry of Magic.

Signed,

Minister of Magic

Cornelius Fudge

Draco passed the letter to Hermione and went of in search of Astoria. Hermione met the pair in the main foyer and preformed sidelong appiration with Draco and Astoria as she was not strong enough to preform Magic after Astoria's attack.

When the three arrived at the Ministry's main office's they were greeted by the Minister of Magic and two burley men in dark suits. The Minister shook Draco and Hermione's hands and lead the three into an office. He sat behind a desk and stared back at them gesturing for them to sit, a look of thought upon his face.

The Minister sighed as he began. "Well," He whispered "This has been an... Eventful night. Firstly I would like to begin with Yourself," He nodded at Draco "And Mrs. Thomas here. We were informed that at approximately ten-twenty-three this evening you and Mrs. Thomas kissed. Thus breaking your contracts under the Marriage Law."

Astoria jumped to her feet bending down into Hermione's face and shrieked "Hah! I knew it! You were after my Husband the whole time weren't you Bitch?! I knew it! I could just tell!" She then turned to Draco and continued in her high pitch voice "And you! You cheated on me! I am your WIFE! Your loyalty is to me, not to this Whore!"

"Mrs. Malfoy!" The Minister yelled "Please control your behavior. This is incredibly inappropriate." Astoria took a deep breath and smoothed her hands over her clothes as she sat back down. Her lips pursed.

"Now," The Minister continued from where he left off " Under normal circumstances this blatant disrespect for you contract and your partners would result in the loss of you powers. However around about six months ago it was brought to the attention of the Ministry that there had been a small mistake when pairing couples up. You see when you were paired you were meant to be paired with the love of your life, essentially your soul-mate. The small mistake that was brought to our attention was that there was two couples who had been wrongly paired, essentially mixed up. These two couples are Mr. Draco Malfoy, Mrs. Astoria Malfoy, Mrs. Hermione Thomas and Mr. Dean Thomas. We never brought this to your attention as we did not want to disrupt your lives further."

Hermione nodded. "So we can keep our powers?" She asked slowly.

Fudge smiled at her. "Yes, you can keep your powers because technically you two are made for each other. I will inform Mr. Thomas of this in the morning and also something else." The Minister then turned to Astoria. "Mrs. Malfoy." He said grimly "I was also informed of some disturbing news. At nine-seventeen this evening you preformed the Cruciatus Curse on Ms. Granger. As you are aware this is an Unforgivable Curse and for it you will be sent straight to Azkaban. Tonight."

Astoria whimpered at the sound of the prison. The two men stepped forward and took an arm each walking her out of the office. All Hermione could hear was the sounds of her screaming and begging as she was dragged through the main foyer. All she thought was how that Bitch got what she deserved. But she pitied Dean, his soul-mate was going to rot away in Azkaban and he would be alone.

The Minister wished the couple a good night and the best of luck. He walked them out to the Main Foyer where Draco preformed sidelong appiration with Hermione back to Malfoy Manor. Hermione was exhausted. She had had it. She excused herself and walked towards the stairs to go rest.

Draco looked at her, he couldn't let her go. Not again! He grabbed her hand as she walked away and pulled her in for a heart melting kiss. When they came up for air he pulled her into a hug and whispered in her ear "Mya, Baby. Will you marry me?"
