    Summary

    Sequel to the movie Pride and Prejudice from 2005. This is what I imagine happened next...

    The title is a twist to an old Irish Blessing to St Patrick. Harks from pagans who evoked earth, wind, water and fire in their Celtic ceremonies. It is often recited in weddings, funerals and christenings. I thought it fitted my story who as a sequel to the 2005 Pride and Prejudice movie, a family saga and a mash-up of several of Jane Austen’s other works. Can you spot which ones? It started with the thought: What if Mr and Mrs Bennet had blue eyes and Elizabeth had brown... Picks up at the most romantic scene I have ever watched in a movie, during the sunrise in the fields of Longbourn.

    Summary

    Draco was a troubled boy growing up. He was the ultimate menace to Wizarding society. It left his parents no choice but to send him to Durmstrang, hoping that the cold institution would shape him up. Unfortunately, he came back even worse than before.

    After barely graduating from Durmstrang and returning to London, Lucius forces Draco to start from the bottom of the Malfoy family business. Upon his first day on the job, he meets the sweet and innocent Hermione Granger. She becomes his entire world and he'd stop at nothing to keep it that way, even if it means killing anyone that gets in his way.

    Or a morally bankrupt Draco meets a sweet baby angel Hermione.
