I truely enjoyed this chapter. I truley enjoy this story! lol. I've been asking myself for the past 3 or 4 chapter's when she was going to figure out that she was pregnant! Jeez, it didn't even take me that long. Well actually, it did. One of my friends at the last place I worked asked me if I was and I told her no, there was no way and she told me I better take a test because supposidly I was having major mood swings so I did and, I was! hehe, nevermind. Some women are just clueless to what their bodies are telling them! lol. Great job! Keep those chapters a comin!

Now, this chapter really drives home what kind of person your Draco actually is, and makes Ginny's plans to destory him much more understandable. Sentences like THIS:
"So?" Draco said. "He's her husband, isn't he? What happened to right of life and death over one's woman?"
made me want Ginny to open a nice big can of whoop-ass on him. ARGH! You've done a great job of leading us to understand what really divides this Draco and this Ginny; so often it's a dumb misunderstanding that could be easily cleared up in a couple of sentences, but not here. It will be fascinating to see how this gets developed.

What a way for Draco to break the news to Ginny! I can't wait to see how she reacts. I have to admit that I am completely at sea amid all of Draco's relatives. I'm having trouble keeping straight who is who. On the other hand, it will be interesting to see what effect such a large, colorful group will have on Draco and Ginny's story. Thanks for the update!

The thought of Tom Riddle having a daughter is creepy. I'm glad, though, that she's turned out to be such a genuinely kind person, although she bears the scars of her father's wrongdoings.
Cyrus is still an ass, but it's nice to see that most of Draco's other family members aren't so bad.
As the chapters come, I get more and more nervous about what Draco will do when he finds out what Ginny's done to him...
Thanks for the update!

WOW - that was some chapter...
Every time u kinda guess how things are gonna go u throw in some more twists and characters. Again, your attention to detail is just astounding… I can't even imagine how much time and effort you must have put into researching this.
On a different note, i feel really sorry for Blaise... think it would have been easier for him to get Shehzin himself, rather than get stuck in a debt like this... wonder if he would still offer to do this, had he known what he was in store for... or did he already know....
All the best for college by the way…
Author's Response: Thanks :) Yes, I may be adding TOO many twists... Hopefully I can tie the threads by the time the end of the story rolls by 0:) Blaise didn't have the presence and notability required to get Shehzin himself. Though you were spared the discussion between DM and Shehzin's family, think of it as having been intellectually bloody. "If looks could kill" and stuff like that. Thanks for all your reviews!

This chapter was very visual. It's odd how Ginerva is slowly letting her mask become revealved, I know it was very emotional looking in the face of Tom's daughter and understanding the meaning behind her freckles/spots but to disclose that about her family to her put her at great risk. Hopefully no one was lurking, of course Cyrus knows so he's looking for the best time to strike out against her, I'm kinda feeling for the girl too, because when Draco finds out about her deception hell he's anticipating she'll have to suffer whatever faith he bestows upon her, and from the sounds of it he believes he'll be well within his right to do whatever he chooses, what a tangled web she's woven. GJ as usual, and GL on class I know how you feel being overwhelmed with classes. :)
Author's Response: We saw with Riddle's diary that Ginny trusts her instincts, sometimes bestowing her trust upon undeserving people. Let us hope that Izha is a better person than her father was. You are absolutely right in thinking that Draco will believe himself entitled to doing whatever he wishes to Ginny, and that certainly isn't good news. Thanks a lot for reviewing!!!

I am confused. How old are they supposed to be, cause you say Ginny only just got out of Durmstrang.....
Author's Response: She's seventeen--I randomly decided decided that Durmstrang would take six years rather than the Hogwarts seven, since I believe in GoF Fleur comments on how French and British systems are different, so why not British and Bulgarian/Romanian/wherever Durmstrang is. Ginny turned 17 in April, and Draco 18 at some point.

I just finished all 14 chapters, and I must say that all the praise that this story has garnered is *well* deserved. Ginerva is playing with fire in regards to the Malfoys, how long can she keep up this facade is beyond me. I understand her motivation and wants driving her to do this, but I fear for the girl. Not only from Draco's wrath but Pansy's which may be ten times as worst, you've done great with the push/pull story not knowing and fearing when the truth comes out on all ends. Did he intentionally sentence her family to death or was it accidental since he felt guilt when seeing them on Halloween.
I know folks loathe Cyrus because he is a dastardly character, but I *love* him. This man right now is holding all of the cards and Ginny's faith in his hands, who would she rather have tell Draco the truth Cyrus or her at this point because it's coming to a head. Or will she as he said willingly give herself to him so the secret can be kept either way Draco will be in for the shock of his life. I see hurt, suffering and possibly a bit of understanding on his part when the truth comes out. Great story, I look forward to your next update. :)

Cyrus is an intriguing character. I'm looking forward to finding out what else he ends up doing to Ginny. And I particularly like the jealousy he inspires in Draco. I think it is finally occurring to Ginny just how dangerous a game she is playing. Now if she would only notice what her symptoms mean! Anyway, I really enjoy the way you keep building the tension in this story. It keeps me on my toes! Thanks for the update.
Author's Response: The problem with Cyrus is that he's so similar to Draco, except he didn't have Draco's maturing experience with a harrowing year at Hogwarts, months as a DE (can't give out more, now, can I?), and burrying his father. She won't get what's going on with her, but someone is going to be kind enought to tell her (at last). Thanks a lot for all the reviews!

Why would Draco take Ginny to a place where she and his unborn child would be in danger? I don't get that part. Sorry. I do love your story though, and I'll be anxiously awaiting the next chapter.
Author's Response: Well they aren't really, technically in danger. Besides, Narcissa wants a family for them, and Proserpina IS Lucius' sister. I suppose one could also assume that Draco feels he'd be strong enough to prevent any harm from happening? I'm glad you're enjoying the fic regardless of my inaccuracies. Next chapter, next week! Thanks for reviewing :D

I absolutely adore this story. I love the historical references (it's always exciting to see original characters with names that have been given with a specific intent in mind. ie= Belial, indeed), and the ones you've chosen are great.
I can picture Cyrus in my head perfectly, and I have to say that I hate him. He's ridiculously disgusting, but very interesting. Voldemort was a huge deal in England moreso than any other place, but even so, Cyrus doesn't seem to care much about Ginny's past.
Well, I mean, it's as if the fact that she came from a family diametrically opposed to Draco's in every respect is only secondary to him having his way with her. Arrghh. I hate him.
And I'm really nervous for Ginny. She left England where Blaise was spying (very effectively) on her to come to this place, where her true identity was found out in about 5 seconds flat.
Ah. Lovely chapter - very exciting.
Author's Response: I'm glad you like the historical references (more coming, mwahaaa!), and that you hate Cyrus. I'm considering using him in later chapters, given the response he triggered... He's dangerous, but the fact that he has his own agenda might delay his revealing to Draco Ginny's identity. All in all, thanks for reviewing for so many chapters!

WOW! I have to say that this chapter is so great. I loved the conflict that rages inside Ginny to tell Draco the truth and also expose her secrets to him. I also love how you have Draco muscle his cousin and declare what is his, Ginny. I so can't wait to see what happens in the next chapter! Thank you, it is a pleasure to read this story. When will Ginny realize she is having a baby?

Oh god I really, truly loathe Cyrus. The whole bloody family!!! I can't believe he figured it out within 2 seconds of her arriving there! Okay maybe not 2 seconds but it was still awfully fast! And Ginny should have just acted dumb. But I really fear for her. I rather Draco know that she's a Weasley than Cyrus having his way with her. What with him being stronger and everything. I don't even want to think rape and adultery!!!!
Oh please, pretty please, couldn't you send them back to the safety of Malfoy Manor? PLEASE! I'm just afraid to go on now. Urgh! And a shoutout to Ginny.
Wake up and smell the vomit! YOU'RE PREGNANT!
