The Devil's Daughter | D.M

42 - Epilogue

" After paying 7 years sentence in Azkaban for 6 charges of murder under spell, not willingly, robbery and alliance with the dark Lord. The ministry and I have decided to have you released. You will continue to be under daily supervision for a year. Your wand will also be confiscated for 5 months" The Minster read off his file as well as the rest of the file.

" Guards take off the chains" The Minister ordered and gone guards obeys. Finally the chains were removed my my legs and arms.

" Cassiopeia Riddle from this day forth you are free. We will still have a close watch on you, any movement you do that seems like a threat or is a threat will bring you back here. Be smart with your choices" He banged his gavel against the table finalizing the trail.

Over the last 7 years i've been locked up in the highest cell in Azkaban along with dangerous psychopaths and serial killers. I was still respected within the people, i was still a Riddle. Riddle would always stick with me but i was the one who would choose to keep the Riddle legacy of dark witches and wizards or change Riddle for the good.

I had lots of time to think- a lot of time actually. I was able to reflect a lot but also over think a lot. Having my humanity brought out a lot of emotions that i didn't know i would have. I was thinking of everything in another perspective.

Draco was the person i thought of the most. I spend most of my time wondering if he moved on. It hurt like hell thinking about him with another person but i never knew if i would be able to get out the hell hole. It would be selfish of me to make him wait. Did he wait, would he wait this long? I've been locked up for 7 years would be patient enough.

My belongings were given back to me expect my wand. I was able to shower and change into fresh clothes. I still looked like a walking corpse. The food we got was not enough for our body to function completely. My under eyes were darker then they ever been. Sleep was very rare in Azkaban when the person in the cell next to yours would scream bloody murder ever night.

Two guards led me to the exit. My anxiety was reaching the roof. Did anyone know i was being released today. The judge had told me they had informed my close friends since i didn't have family but none were at the trail. What if no one wanted to see me again.

Those thoughts faded from my mind when i saw the boy i loved at the front doors. He had waited.

He kept his promise.

He smiled lightly as he walked up to me. My eyes couldn't believe what i was seeing. I was standing in front of the boy i never thought i'd see again. The only person who kept me sane the whole time i was locked up.

" Draco ?" I whispered more to myself then anything.  He smiled at me nodding his head as he slowly lifted his hands to caress my cheek.

" You're really here ? you waited" My eyes filled with tears as i took in all of him. He was truly beautiful.

He looked more mature then the last time i saw him. He looked more healthy and full of life. For a 24 year old man he looked good. He looked more than good, really, he looked hot.

" I will wait for you until the end of time love. Because i love you, you are the only person i love" He told me looking at me in my eyes that were now dripping tears.

" I love you Draco, more than anything in this world" A smile broke onto his face as he embraced me with a hug and a kiss.

Our happy ending now seemed possible. Everything with him by my side seemed possible.

" M-mommy" Scorpius said as he reached his hands up for me to get him out his crib. My mouth gaped open as he called me mommy.
