Dynamic Touch: l.b

Lorenzo

I wish I had a choice. But I don't, I had to get it. My father forced this on me, and it made me sick to the bone. Making me feel owned to the dark lord, I felt like his slave. My forearm stung as he demanded something, or if he was angry. I'd scratch at it as it burned my skin, leaving it all bloody and bruised up.

I got my dark mark two days ago, the worst days of my life.

Knock Knock

The two black doors to my bedroom opened, I saw my mother standing in the door way. Her hair was sleaked back into a bun, she had very little makeup on. But it made her look stunning, she had a black dress on, very plain. But it fitted her well.

"The lord wants you downstairs, dear." she struggled to say, as she gripped on the handle to my doors. "He has something... important to discuss with Draco and you."

I stood up from my desk and walked up to my mother "You look amazing."

She smiled weakly "Thank you... come along now." she patted my back as we both walked down the stairs to the dining room.

Once we both got down to the stairs I felt sick to my stomach, like someone was stabbing me with a knife. Then I felt a sting on my forearm, I quickly grabbed my arm and held it tightly. He wanted me- needed me.

"I can't come with you honey." my mother whispered in my ear "I wish I could.. but I can't."

I looked at my mother, she looked tired "I know, mother. It's alright, I'll go in now."

She sighed deeply "I'm so sorry."

"Its alright mother, I'll be fine... I promise." I intended to keep this promise, she was the only thing I had right now, she was holding me together.

I walked up to the two large black doors, I opened one of the doors slowly and walked inside. The first things my eyes caught were Draco, he had dark under eyes. He looked as if he cried himself to sleep last night. But I quickly took a seat next to my father.

The dark lord laughed as his snake twirled around the big chair he sat in. I could barely even look him in the eyes.

"We have great news!" he exclaimed. I flinched "I've found a way to kill Albus Dumbledore!"

Dumbledore? How is he going to be able to kill him... he can't get inside the castle, it's impossible.

"As you all know, I cannot get inside the castle alone." he explained with a smile "Lorenzo... Draco, this is were you'll come in handy."

My first instinct was to look at Draco, he was already staring at me. He looked confused and scared- so was I.

He continued speaking "There is a vanishing cabinet inside Borgin and Burkes, which leads to the Room of Requirements in Hogwarts, with another vanishing cabinet." he said "Once you've healed the cabinet we can get inside the castle and kill Dumbledore."

Bellatrix Lestrange raised her hand awkwardly "Which death eaters will be able to join, and watch his death?"

"I'll decide then, Bellatrix."

She bowed her head "Yes, your lord."

"So, Lorenzo and Draco... do you understand your orders?" he asked us

I looked at Draco then struggled to look back at the dark lord "Yes." we said in sync

"If you fail to complete your task...  you will be killed- understood?"

"Yes, your lord." we said again in sync, but with a head nod at the end

"You can go now." he demanded
