Willow read the ministry letter announcing her bethrol to one Draco Malfoy.

Would Spike’s claim count as a superseding event? She thought as she read the fine print. She grabbed the phone and quickly dialed Angel’s number.

“Angel, can you claim right of sire? I need out of a prearranged marriage and only a prior claim will supersede it.”

There was silence on the other end. Finally a familiar British voice spoke. “What the bloody hell did you say to send Paingel into brood mode?”

“Spike!?!” Willow exclaimed in shock.

“Yeah it’s me. I’m a bloody ghost.” He sighed. “So what’d you tell Peaches?”

“I asked him to claim right of sire on your just-chipped promise so I can get out of the stupid marriage the Ministry of Magic’s arranged for me to a Draco Malfoy.”

“I’ll stand by my word Red, although I’m even more neutered than before.” Spike said. “’sides, my claims stronger especially since he’s family-Malfoy was me mum’s maiden name-I probably can use a variation of droid du seigneur if needed.”

“Thanks.”

Several days later Willow received another letter. Due to William the Bloody’s prior claim your bethrol to Draco Malfoy has been revoked.
