"My dear Alice," I glanced up in horror. "We've been expecting you."

My eyes widened in unmasked fear as a group of death eaters stood before me. I recognized the same wolf man from before who's name I still don't know, another scary looking man, Bellatrix Lestrange, Lucius Malfoy and my mouth hung open in shock when I saw Draco's mother Narcissa Malfoy.

"You weren't kidding Lucius, this one's practically a mute." The scary looking man spoke first.

"I know Yaxley. She's not worthy enough to be a pureblood. Now let's just get this over with," Lucius ordered and Bellatrix raised her wand at my father.

"No! Please don't! He's all I have left!" I pleaded desperately but she just laughed cynically at my pain. "Please!" I turned to Narcissa. "Narcissa, make them stop. Please!" I begged and she turned her face, tears brimming to come out.

"Oh please!" Bellatrix laughed. "She doesn't care about you. No one cares about you. Not even your precious little Draco."

My eyes looked up at her defiantly. "You're wrong! Draco loves me."

Bellatrix laughed along with the wolf man. "Oh Fenrir," I finally learned his name. "This girl must be demented. Young Draco doesn't love you, he never did." My heart began to throb painfully at her words. "It was all a ploy in order for us to get to your powerful father."

"W-What?" I shook my head in disbelief. "You're lying."

"Why would I lie to someone on their death bed? Draco was ordered by the dark lord to find out where your father's safe house was. Why do you think he was so reluctant to go out with you?" I shook my head. No! She's lying. "Believe me when I tell you that you were just a pawn. Now you'll suffer the same fate as your dead mother and soon to be dead father."

"NO!" I yelled. "You're lying to me! Stop it!" 

Bellatrix smirked evilly, "Cissy? Tell our dear friend over there the truth."

My eyes snapped up toward Narcissa. Her face was distressed and tears streamed down her beautiful face. "Is it true Narcissa?" I begged for answers. "Was I nothing but a pawn? Did Draco truly even love me?"

 "...No, I'm sorry but he didn't," Narcissa sighed, before she dissapparated out of the house. 

My heart sunk to the deepest possible depth it could find. Narcissa wouldn't lie to me. So that means...Oh god! Draco never loved me. That coward! He didn't have the guts to say it to my face. I began to sobbed waiting for it to be a dream, a horrifying nightmare. Bellatrix seemed to enjoy my pain because she continued happily.

“You probably feel stupid right now for showing Draco the safe house. Now you and your father will meet your untimely death," she shrugged. "Oh well. Fenrir, hold her!"

Fenrir, the wolf man detached me from my father and lead to the side. I watched as Lucius muttered a spell 'Rennevrate' and my father's eyes flew open and his eyes tried desperately to focus on the situation at hand. When they found mine, he leaped up with great difficulty and tried to free me from this hairy man's clutches. 

"Let her go Fenrir!" My father shouted but was soon distracted when Bellatrix, Yaxley and Lucius began to fight him. My father was a very powerful man but three against one was highly unfair. 

I kicked and screamed against Fenrir grip as my father's body began to tire out. My dressed ripped on the sides and my hair became wild and untamed. I tried using my wand but Fenrir wouldn't let me.

So I watched helplessly as spells flew back and forth between the two parties and after a long and endlessly struggle, Yaxley uttered the words that sucked the life out of my father's eyes. The bright green light, the same one that hit Dumbledore's chest in the Astronomy Tower, collided with my father's unguarded back. He fell, sprawled out on the living room floor and my body froze when our eyes met for the final time.
