The Slytherin Princess

Chapter 82

DRACO'S POV

I hate myself. I just crucioed Jayne. I tortured her. I will never be able to get her screams out of my head. I will never be able to get the look of Theo falling unconscious in the chair as his head went limp. After we all left them in the cellar, my father dragged me to the dining room. The death eaters were all sitting at a table. Voldemort sat down at the head of the table. My mother was sent away. Voldemort no longer uses her as much. My father dragged me over and sat me at a chair in between him and Bellatrix. I kept my shaking hands under the table. Voldemort began to talk about his plans. He talked about how we may use Jayne to lure Harry here. I couldn't focus. I just kept hearing Jayne's screams in my head. Eventually the meeting ended. My father sent me to my room and when I walked in my mother was pacing in the room. I shut the door my father had just put in. It had charmed locks. "Mother, are you ok?" I asked. "Yes dear, I'm fine" she said, taking my hands. She sat me down. "Jayne and Theo are fine too," she said. "My eyes widened. "How do you-" I started. "I went down there. During the meeting. Theo is unconscious but he'll be fine. Jayne is ok too." she said. I sighed in relief. "I have to see her" I said standing up and heading for the door. "Draco, wait," my mother said, grabbing my hand. "Not when your fathers awake. We can't risk it. I'm going to put a sleeping draught in his drink tonight. Then I will come get you when he's asleep." she said. I hugged her tightly. "Thank you!" I said. She smiled at me. "I'm so sorry you had to do that" she whispered. I nodded.

JAYNE'S POV

It's been a while in this cellar. Theo and I are sitting next to each other silent. I'm pretty sure neither of us know what to say. I'm still in the pajamas I was wearing the night we got taken and it's freezing down here. Theo has his arms around me but it doesn't help much. I was still shaking. Theo was too. "Are you scared Theo?" I asked. He looked at me and gave me a small smile. "Yeah, a little." he said. I nodded. "Are you?" he asked. "A little." I said. He nodded too. Then we heard the gate click open. We both stood up and Theo stood in front of me. We were sitting at the very back of the cellar and it was dark. "Who's there?" Theo called out. "Lumos" a voice said. The room lit up and there stood Draco and Narcissa. I ran forward and jumped into Draco's arms. He held me tight and I pressed my lips onto his. "I'm so so so sorry Jayne. I never wanted to do that to you. I just thought if-" he started. "Draco, it's ok. I understand." I said. I hugged him again. Narcissa was talking to Theo and making sure he was ok. "I'm going to get you out of here." Draco said. I looked up at him. "No, no you can't. They'll know it was you. They'll kill you. I'm not going to let you die for me. No way." I said. "Jayne if you stay here, they might kill both of you." he said. My stomach churned. "We don't trade lives mate." Theo said. "Jayne, your innocent. I've done things. Bad things." he started. "None of us are innocent." I said. He smiled and kissed me. "If I go, you have to come with me." I said. He shook his head. "I can't, I'm sorry. It's the dark mark. He can find me." he said. My eyes watered. "We can get it off" I started, a tear fell. He wiped it and tried to smile. "I'm sorry Jayne." he said lifting his sleeve. The ink had red marks and scars and burns. "What did you do?" I choked out. "I've tried to get it off, I can't." he said. "No. I'm not leaving. Not without you" I cried. I gripped his shoulders, holding his tightly. He rubbed my back. "Please Jayne. Let me do this. Let me get you out." he said. I cried and shook my head. "We were supposed to be together. You and me. I thought we would end up together. I love you Draco." I choked back sobs. He stroked my hair. "I know princess. I love you too." he was crying as well. "Draco, we have to get back." Narcissa said. I held him tighter. "It's ok. I'll come back when I have a plan and I'll get you guys out." he said. I cried and hugged him. "Thank you mate," Theo said. "No. Please don't leave me." I said. I can't lose him again. "Jayne, you have to let go. You'll be ok. I'll be back with a plan." he said. I felt Theo's arms wrap around me. He pulled me off but I held Draco's hand. "I love you" he whispered and he pulled away. His mother took his shoulder and they walked away disappearing. I fell to my knees and cried. He couldn't come with us. What if I never see him again? Theo pulled me into his chest and I cried. "Shhhh" he whispered, stroking my hair. "You're alright." he said. "I love him Theo," I said. "I know. I know you do. It's going to be ok." he said.
