In the early morning, when the sky was just getting light, a gentle breeze blew, bringing the coolness of the summer night.
The two people on the bed were still sleeping soundly, but they would wake up soon. They had recently developed the habit of morning exercises.
Yin Zebeier suddenly opened her eyes and sat up from the bed. The thin blanket slipped off her fair and smooth skin. She didn't care about it at all. She just put her hand on her forehead and gasped, as if she had just had a nightmare.
"What's wrong?"
Albert was awakened by the noise around him. He opened his eyes dazedly and looked at Yin Zebel, who seemed to be having a nightmare. He put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean on him.
"Just had a nightmare."
Yin Zebel opened his eyes again, took a steady breath and said, "I dreamed that something happened to my mother, and those Death Eaters couldn't find us, so..."
Albert stretched out his hand and the metal book flew from the bedside table and landed in his palm. He spread it out in front of Yin Zebel, pointed at Mrs. McDougal's ink spot and said, "Don't worry, dear, Mrs. McDougal is safe now."
"I know it was just a nightmare, but a wizard's dreams are sometimes warnings." Yin Zebel had studied divination, and even though she herself could not predict the future like Albert, she knew very well what some things meant.
"We have a time converter, so don't worry." Albert said soothingly, "If you are still worried, why not invite her to stay here for a while?"
"I'm afraid Mom won't give up her work." Yin Zebel leaned her head on Albert's shoulder and sighed softly. She actually agreed with Albert's suggestion. It was not safe to let Mrs. McDougal stay outside alone.
Especially as their wedding date is approaching and Albert is on the mysterious man's blacklist, Mrs. MacDougal's situation has become quite delicate. Never try to gamble on the moral integrity of a dark wizard, as they may do anything.
"I think she will agree. If she doesn't, I have a way to convince her." Albert kissed Yin Zebel's cheek and said confidently, "So, don't worry."
"Will she really agree to this?"
Yin Zebel had just had a nightmare and felt that most of his strength had been drained from his body. He was very tired and collapsed in Albert's arms.
"Yes."
"What are you going to do?"
She wanted to stay in bed and take another nap, but she knew she had to cheer up now.
"The worst case scenario is that we temporarily modify part of her memory." Albert said without hesitation: "This kind of thing will happen sooner or later. When the Death Eaters suffer heavy losses at the hands of the Aurors, they will definitely lose their minds and want to retaliate against us. Just as you expected, after the Death Eaters can't find us, they will look for Mrs. MacDougal."
"Let's go and convince her this morning, and call Katrina along. It'd be best if we go before she goes to work." Yin Zebel turned her head to look at the mechanical clock on the wall, struggled to get up from Albert, and began to prepare to change clothes. It's better not to wait for such things, especially after having a nightmare. Yin Zebel realized that he should have followed Albert's advice and persuaded Mrs. McDougal to hide.
Although Albert had been prepared for this, the time converter was not a panacea, and she did not want to risk her family's lives.
"Calm down dear, you're panicking!"
Albert hugged Yin Zebel's waist from behind and reminded her softly, "Calm down, you just had a nightmare, and we will go over to convince Mrs. McDougal later. Before that, you need to calm down first."
"you're right."
Yin Zebel took a deep breath and gradually calmed himself down, and the deep fatigue surged into his heart again.
Nothing happened, it was just a nightmare. They just needed to take precautions in advance and they wouldn't encounter such trouble.
After a while, Katrina, who was sleeping soundly, was also awakened. She was surprised that Albert and Yin Zebel were planning to persuade Mrs. McDougal to give up her work temporarily.
However, she actually agreed with the proposal because it was really dangerous outside. Albert had a great hatred for the Death Eaters and the mysterious man, and if Mrs. Mac stayed outside alone, she might be targeted by the Death Eaters.
No, it’s not very likely, but it is certain that you will be targeted.
That is never a good thing.
The three of them hurried to the safe house where Mrs. Mike lived, intending to intercept her before she went to work.
"Why are you here?"
Mrs. McGonagall looked at the three people who appeared in the hall, and looked at her eldest daughter who came forward to hug her in surprise.
"Yin Zebel had a nightmare. He dreamed that something happened to you, so we rushed here." Albert glanced at the breakfast on the table. He was a little hungry.
"Nightmare?"
Mrs. McGonagall looked at Yin Zebel in confusion, obviously not understanding why she was so nervous.
"The entire wizarding world has been unsafe lately, so we thought it would be best to stay hidden," Albert explained.
"We think you should give up your job temporarily and move in with us," Katrina explained. "Besides, Yin Zebel is getting married, and you can't neglect your daughter's wedding because of work!"
Mrs. McGonagall opened her mouth, turned her gaze toward her future son-in-law, and asked, "Did you predict it?"
She didn't believe that the three of them would rush to find her just because Yin Zebeier had a nightmare.
"I'm very sorry about this. I've caused you trouble." Albert said apologetically, "I've offended the Death Eaters and the You-Know-Who quite a bit recently. Everyone is worried that they will take their anger out on you."
"When the Death Eaters can't find your residence, they will just break into St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries to arrest people."
"What would you have done if I hadn't agreed?"
"Knock you out and take you away." Albert said softly.
"Has it really gotten that bad?" Mrs. McDougal sighed softly. She knew she had no choice.
“It’s terrible,” Yinzebel said. “I don’t think we should take the risk.”
"Yin Zebeier may need your care after a while."
Mrs. McGonagall suddenly turned her gaze towards her daughter and looked her up and down, not knowing what she was looking at.
"What's wrong, Mom?" Yin Zebel asked puzzledly.
"You're pregnant?"
Katrina also suddenly turned her head to look at Yin Zebel, and her movement was so fast that she almost broke her neck.
"Not yet." Yin Zebel glared at Albert.
"If you want to have children, you must be prepared and aware of welcoming a new life." Mrs. McGonagall reminded softly.
"We know."
"I'm going to pack my things and send a letter to the headmaster of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries?"
Mrs. McDougal looked at her two daughters, then at her son-in-law, and sighed softly. She could see that no matter what she said, the three of them were going to take her away by force and protect her.
"No need, leave first, the house-elf will come to pack up." Albert had no intention of staying here, especially since Yin Zebel and others were still around. He went straight into the suitcase and let the house-elf take the suitcase home.
"Are you really not considering settling abroad?" Mrs. McDougal suddenly asked
"I don't have any plans for now." Albert shook his head. "Besides, it may not be safe abroad."
"You joined Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix?"
"No, his Order of the Phoenix is unreliable."
Mrs. McDougal was silent for a long time, and suddenly said to Yin Zebel, "After you get married, have a child first. I can help you take care of it."
After that, she looked at Albert again and reminded him, "Don't always do those dangerous things. Your life has just begun. Don't take risks with your life."
