Glass Houses

11🔴Phsyco Tommy

The three of them apparated to Malfoy Manor,Emerald being used to this didn't feel the effects at all, after their lengthy discussion at the train station it had caused them to be late,putting Magnus even more on edge than he already was
" I want you two to stay outside the room until you are called in" he instructed

Emerald and her grandfather father shared a glance before nodding simultaneously and taking a step back.

Magnus took a deep breath and knocked before entering the dining room closing the door behind him.
Emerald and Morfin listened intently on the other side

"Of course my lord" came her fathers voice

A look of rage covered Morfin's face "who in Merlin's name is he calling 'my lord, bowing down to a filthy half blood" he ranted on "I've got a good mind to..." he stopped mid sentence and shot Emerald a look ,a worryingly happy look in his eye before blasting the doors open and striding into the room, again locking the doors behind him

Emerald smirked deciding to let her grandfather have his fun, Morfin was stronger due to his excessive purebloodedness but also due to his lack of empathy ,it made him stronger and a lot more dangerous. She had heard stories about him when she was younger that would have had normal children waking in the night screaming, but not her, she felt a sense of pride that her grandfather was so feared, even the dreaded Bellatrix had been terrified of him.

She heard a lot of shouting and she smiled calmly putting her head against the wall and letting it rest there.

"Miss Gaunt?" a timid voice came from the shadows

She looked down to see a sickly looking house elf ,she was quite fond of the creatures, and they didn't seem to mind her, she never bullied or abused them like most family's did,

this one however looked familiar as she tried to remember its name

"Hello Miss Gaunt, it's Biddy miss, Biddy must say that Miss Gaunt has grown ever so much Miss." the little elf bowed her head.

"Why hello Biddy how've you been?" she asked warmly, if her grandfather saw her behaving like this to an elf she would be given the scolding of a lifetime.

"Biddy has been ok thank you Miss Emerald ,just a touch of the flu,Miss" she coughed hoarsely

"Oh Biddy why don't you have a break" Emerald offered

Biddy's eyes widened "oh no couldn't possibly do that Miss, Masters have many guests round,Biddy is needed to serve, you see Miss"

"Biddy, have a break, even if it is only 20 minutes or so" Emerald instructed lightly "that's an order" she winked at the elf "if you get told off tell Masters that Miss Emerald said it was okay" she finished

"Such kindness thank you Miss Gaunt!" the elf hugged her leg quickly before scampering off.

She smiled to herself before hearing a cough from the steps as she turned to see who it was.

"Draco? what the hell happened to you?!" She exclaimed taking a better look at him ,he was as pale as the Bloody Baron and was sweating profusely.

His blue orbs met her brown ones and for a second she thought he looked like he'd been crying,she pushed the thought aside walking further up to him

"Leave it Gaunt" he snapped half heartedly

She looked confused before her eyes darted down to his hand gripping his left forearm . She stood there, shocked ,so that's what this meeting was all about ,he was creating more death eaters and he'd now brought in a child into doing his dirty work. How desperate for followers was he? Her eyes flicked over to the dining room door as she felt her blood run cold.
