One of the biggest surprises of the night was the late arrival of the entire Malfoy family. Even Narcissa was out in a lavish robe looking every bit the same haughty, proud woman she had always been. Hermione had to admire that even in the face of known enemies she refused to be cowed. Inside she might have been quaking, but it certainly wasn't noticeable. Lucius made an effort to sober up long enough to speak to everyone with the least amount of power. That, unfortunately, extended even to Hermione. She listened to him prattle on about how pleased he was to see her again and how he hoped that her travels were both relaxing and productive. Every word he said was ignored as she tried not to make it obvious she was staring at his son.
