Lucius was of course struggling without his soulbond living on the same plain. Whilst Draco was held captive in the dungeons beneath Malfoy Manor he had uncovered the fact that his chest ached a little less for his missing bond when he was in dragon form and so Lucius built his new bedroom to be the size of the manor's old ballroom and slept every night beneath scales, wings, and puffs of smoke. It helped him somewhat to cling to his sanity but Draco knew that eventually he would succumb to the pain. They all hoped there were a few good years left in him and considering Luna’s father managed to hold down a job years after the passing of his own soulbond, there was hope. Theo had vowed that his next potion would be one that dulled the ache in soul bonds that were left behind and secretly Draco thought Lucius was relieved to hear it. Although he was too proud to admit it, life without Narcissa was not something he ever thought he would live through and if it wasn't for Draco and Theo, he would of lay down and never gotten up ever again.
