    Summary

    ‘You were there when she collapsed. I remember your faces when I carried her to her room, how terrible it was. Holding Mary in my arms, looking down at her, she was so fragile and – ’ Suddenly, Tom took off his spectacles and wiped his hand furiously across his eyes. ‘Forgive me.’ More quietly, he repeated in an altered tone. ‘Forgive me, please.’

    There had been times in the past two months when Tom’s inexplicable disappearance had disappointed her. But her heart ached for him now, for all he had said and what he had not, the suffering which was so palpable and the diffidence which had been so grotesquely exploited.

    Summary

    Summary

    It's commonly understood that every respectable lady should know the basics of marital intimacy; men, on the other hand, are understood to have every right to explore these responsibilities even before marriage. Mary has educated herself on such intimacy, but she's still certain that Thomas knows exactly what to do on their honeymoon.

    Right?

    Summary

    “And they’re calling him ‘The Boy Who Lived’? Mycroft asked.
    “It’s quite a legacy,” Fudge defended.
    Mycroft scoffed. “It’s quite a mouthful.” He watched as Potter’s eyes crinkled.

    Mycroft prided himself on his intelligence and his control. Right now he knew more than both British ministers and had control over two Harry Potters.
    It was like Christmas, his birthday, and Easter combined.
