Visiting the Dark Lord
Alexia p.o.v. (Flashback)
"Mum, I don't want to see him again. He scares me." says a five year old me. I try to grab my mother's hand but she swats my hand away. She was never one for that kind of thing, but being five I didn't know that quite yet.
"Come. Now." My mother says firmly. I follow her into a large manor. "Who is there?" A snakelike voice hisses at my mother. "It is I my lord. Your most loyal follower, Bellatrix and my daughter Alexia."
"Daughter?" The Dark Lord asks curiously walking toward us eyeing me carefully. I scoot closer to my mother but she pushes me toward him. "Don't disappoint me." She breathes so only I can hear. "What is your name, child?"
"Alexia LeStrange my lord."
He looks me over once then turns away. "Leave us." He says to me.
I exit the large room and close the door behind me. I hear them talking but I can't catch what they're saying.
No one's p.o.v.
"Would you ever consider giving her the honor of serving you my lord? I assure you she will be of the utmost assistance." Bellatrix says quickly. "She could be quite helpful and I see promise in her eyes. She will be going to Hogwarts I presume?" Voldemort asks.
"Yes, of course my lord." Bellatrix answers nodding.
"Good. She will receive the mark on her sixteenth birthday. No later. Is this understood Bellatrix?"
"Yes my lord."
I didn't know it yet but this was the day my life had been laid out for me by my mother and the Dark Lord. The day it was all decided...
