Dark Blood // D.M.

THE TRAP

Draco Malfoy 

"My name is Lestrange" Armena snaps.

"That's my girl" I say under my breath.

My teeth bite down hard onto my cheeks to keep myself from smiling. I would give anything to go stand beside her right now. To apparate us out of here and take us back to our home at Hogwarts. I would do anything for her at this point in time.

"I fucking knew it" Armena hisses from the end of the table.

I snap out of my thoughts and look up at her, curious as to what she was talking about. Her eyes are glued forward looking past my father. I turn my head carefully, slightly frightened about what I might see. I feel my jaw drop slightly by the sight of the tall boy. His hands slowly clap together.

Theo fucking Nott. 

"Oh come on now Armena, is that anyway to talk to someone who is going to help bring daddy back and make you his rightful heir?" He says smugly.

Red starts to flood my eyes and I can feel the heat pushing through my veins. I throw my hand down onto the old table and latch onto the wood. grip the table hard. My eyes watch Theo through narrowed slits, as he looks smugly at Armena. I glance back over to her quickly, she is fuming at the ears. 

Theo yanks forward a chair and sits right now at the table, kicking his legs up and making himself at home.

"What is he doing here?" I said through clenched teeth.

Theo and my father ignore my remarks. How did this happen right under my nose? How did Theo get involved with my father? And where in the world is my mum? 

I glance over to Blaise, who is staring at Oliver. Pansy looks like she is about to shrivel up and run, she meets my eyes and I watch as they go wide with fear. Everyone could feel it in that room. It was swimming with pure fear. I turned to my father, who just sat back in his chair, with his typical smirk plastered on his smug little face. I wanted to bash it in.

"Have you had any nice dreams lately?" Theo smirked towards Armena.

He reached forward and plopped a grape in his mouth, chewing obnoxiously. I watched as Armena gripped the table with all of her might, the veins in her hands pulsing with rage. 

"I particularly enjoyed the one with me and—" Theo started.

Armena slammed her hands on the table, standing up abruptly.

"I will fucking kill you" she warned through her teeth.

"Not if I do it first" I hissed, loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Lucius" my mum called from the doors to our dining room. 

My head turns to my mum, she steps to the side and reveals four Death Eaters, all dressed in their usual uniform. The all invade our dining room, moving quickly. My eyes darted to Blaise, who stared back at me with his mouth hanging open. 

I felt bile rise up in my throat knowing exactly what was about to happen. I had just led Armena into a trap. No, not just Armena, I lead my friends into a bloody trap.

"Fenrir, Mulciber, Selwyn, and Goyle— welcome back to our home" my father called, "I would like to formally introduce you to Armena Riddle. Let's all give her a proper greeting."

I watched as my father and the other Death Eaters pull up their sleeves, revealing their dark mark. I felt my skin burn with vengeance. The pain from the mark started shooting down my arm and radiating through my whole body.
