Chapter 14.

Daniel's Pov
After the meeting I went upstairs because my mum told me so. I was waiting in a some kind of bedroom. I stared at the objects that was hanged on the wall and the table. A snow globe caught my attention and I grabbed it. "It was my father's gift on my 14th birthday. When you stare at it while a music is playing, it can show you your memories." Celeste enters the room and I put the globe down. "I'm sorry about your parents, I can't even imagine your pain." I apologise and her face drops. "Do I look like a person that would care about death! I am death." she yells with her strong voice. I look away awkwardly. She definitely has a soft spot for her parents. She sits next to me on the bed and her black hair spreads around the pillow.

I let myself and fall to the bed next to her. She has chestnut eyes and a few freckles. "My sister will die and I can do nothing to stop it." I say and she stays silent. I turn to the other side of the bed "What she has is a gift not a sacrifice exactly. She is a prt of the big plan and she is the key. I would appreciate it if I was her." she says proudly. What kind of a freak would want to die like that. Of course she doesn't realise everyone doesn't worship Voldemort. "I saw you a couple of times at the common room. You are weird. You never had friends, or anyone that you hang out." I explained to her with curiosity.

"No one is as good as me so I never hang out with anyone. Those pricks don't deserve to befriend me." She answers as she stares at my eyes. "You got nice eyes coward." she says. I guess this is Celeste's way to say something nice. I just can't think of anything else except Elora. She is my goddamn sister and I really kinda care about her but mum loves her. I wonder how she is feeling. "Why was there an awkward tension at the table between each other families?" I asked her and a little giggle escaped from her mouth.

"Years years ago Phoenus Mentynn and Bellatrix Black was dating then, suddenly your father cheats on Bellatrix so she accepts the marriage that her parents offer. Later Bella learns that Phoenus cheated on her with a girl named Isolde Greengrass, she was so angry that she wanted to kill that bitch that second but she was a warrior. She tried to have Phoenus back but his heart already belonged to Isolde. Bellatrix Black married Rodolphus Lestrange who is my uncle but, of course it was just a business deal." she explains while she stares at the ceiling. Her dark brown eyes glowed when the spread of light came through the room. She paced her hands on her straight brown hair and continued staring at the ceiling as I watch her.

"Why are you here? You must be successful and your life is probably perfect. Why?" I ask her and she giggled but it wasn't because what I said was funny, it was because she thought it was stupid. "Do you know how my parents died? One day Rabastan Lestrange and his precious wife Emmeline Lestrange went on a trip. They were good people, Rabastan was working at the ministry and the reason why they didn't take their daughter to that trip was because they were going after a muggle case. Their daughter was 3 then but she could remember every detail. She woke up with the news of her parents death because a muggle born casted a few dangerous spells and accidentelly killed the Lestranges. They were just trying to talk with that mudblood, but he killed them both making their 3 year old daughter an orphan. Then at that time Rabastan's brother Rodolphus was married to Bellatrix Lestrange. Rodolphus felt so bad for his dear brother and his wife so he took the daughter and raised her like its his own.

Later he died because of an unforgivable curse. His wife Bellatrix was never truly sad of course but at least she tried to be. She took the orphan and acted like she's her mother. They both joined the dark side. No Daniel my life isn't perfect, its quite miserable actually. But its alright, my faith put me in this messed up life so I can't complain. For my whole life I was treated as a weight that they owed to one another. Thats why love is weak and power is power. You can lose love or worse, but you can never lose power when you hold its strings." she says as a few tears dropped from her beautiful chesnut eyes. She took a deep breath and corrected her red lipstick. "I don't want Elora to die. Even we're not really getting along, she's still my family. She can't die." I whisper with sadness and Celeste rolls her eyes. She got closer to my ear and whispered "Let go of your feelings, thats the only way you'll hold your own strings."

She looks deeply on my eyes then stand up as I watch her. "See you around." she says and walkes away slowly. I just stare at her. The malfoy manor is really nice to be honest. It has a dark vibe and its huge. I still don't understand why Elora is the sacrifice. She has nothing special and why her? I have so many questions. I walked down and saw my mother staring at the fireplace. As soon as she saw me down she looks away and I walk to her. "Mum why is Elora so important. I need fucking answers!" I yell at her. She stares at me and she closes her ocean blue eyes. "She is marked after all." she explains but I don't believe her. There's something she's not telling me "Mum I know you well enough to understand if you're lying or not." I answer her and she ties her arms at her chest.

"Look Daniel, years ago before you were born Phoenus and I couldn't have kids, but wanted so bad. He offered to take the help of the wizard known as Voldemort. Voldemort accepted it and you were born. When you were born you were his child too but he thought you were useless so then your sister was born by Voldemort's help again. As soon as she was born Phoenus understood that she wasn't fully his child like you. Voldemort helped with you but Elora, my god she was truly a miracle. She has two fathers and she only inherited Phoenus's pure blood. Somehow Voldemort's blood mixed with Phoenus's and Voldemort's halfblood turned into pure. She took most of her talents and appearance from the dark lord." my mother speaks. I simply couldn't believe what I just heard. Then if she's so special why does she have to die. Nothing makes sense to be honest.
