By the time Lord and Lady Malfoy entered the room at the end of that day’s session, Martin had finished several detailed charcoal portraits of Lucio and laid them out on a table, presented them to the two of them. Lucio ran to his mother and wrapped his arms around her. She picked him up and kissed him on the cheek. The Malfoys pored over the drawings together, with Pansy standing beside Hermione. Martin caught a glimpse of the Lady and Pansy holding hands—a strange sense of relief touched his heart.
