Third Person Pov:
It's been one day since Alora got that letter. The letter that ripped away any sign of emotion. She sat at her desk with no movement nor any noises. When she read the newest letter it made her heart drop. He was dead. She killed him. That greengrass bitch killed him. Her right hand clutched the letter while tears streamed down her face.

Dear Miss Rosewood,
I am so sorry to tell you this over a letter but it has just been announced that Mattheo Riddle was pronounced dead this morning. There was a letter located near his body telling us to contact you. He said you were the only person that cared for him. It is with great sadness to see a young wonderful man leave this place. I hope you are doing okay.

Sincerely,
Dumbledore

Almost everything in her office was destroyed. Glass was broken, blood was everywhere, papers were thrown, ripped and burned, books were scattered all over the floor, furniture was thrown across the room. She was a mess.

Alora's bed looked as if it were never touched. Which it wasn't. She didn't sleep and the times she did it would be on the floor in her office clutching his letters.

At first she blamed herself, she cursed herself and she harmed herself. She mentally abused herself.

The manor was filled with sound of glass shattering or furniture breaking. When there was nothing else breaking her screams filled the manor. It echoed through the entire manor. Her screams could be heard for miles.

The smallest amount of light that was in the manor vanished. The manor was dark. No laughing, no smiling, no communication, no music. It was heart breaking to see a once loving person who cared turn into a deadly person.

Even if she "hated" his guts, there was no doubt that her love for him ruled over that "hatred". If she had to think she hated him to try and be happy then that's what she did but reading those letters made that love that she hid come up again. And she couldn't do anything to stop it.

She wanted more information on his death. She wanted to know what exactly happened.

She walked up the wooden stairs into her office and began writing.

Dear Alexander,
I am not sure if you have heard the news yet or not but Mattheo is dead. Now I don't have time for pity so I need you to find out what exactly happened. Once you have the information come to my manor and share it with me please. I hope to see you soon.

Love,
Alora Rosewood.

She gave the letter to her owl and sent it away.

Small footsteps were approaching her office. The door slowly opened causing a small creak to be heard. Out pops Pea's head.

"Oh um miss I made lunch for you. It is outside facing the pond." Pea backed away from the door and walked away.

Alora hated how Pea has became afraid of her. She never wanted Pea to fear her.

She stood up from her desk and made her way to the pond

She stood up from her desk and made her way to the pond. Pea stood next to a small table with Alora's lunch. Once Alora approached the table Pea went to leave.

"Oh Pea, will you join me for lunch?" Pea turned around to face alora with a small smile.

"I would love to miss."

"Pea please call me alora."

Pea nodded her head and sat down with alora.

Alora shared her food with Pea and they just talked. Pea tried to make alora smile most of the time but it never worked.

Alora enjoyed Pea's company. It was relaxing talking to someone.

They talked and ate their food. About an hour later they were done and now cleaning up.

"You can go back to the house mis- I mean Alora." Pea smiled shyly.

"It's alright pea. I'll help you clean up."

They cleaned up their mess and made their way back to the manor. Once they were inside a knock echoed through the manor. Pea went into the kitchen to clean the plates and alora made her way to the door.

She opened the door rather roughly and there stood Alexander with papers.

"Oh merlin! I missed you alo. I am so glad you are okay." He rushed in the door and wrapped his arms around alora trapping her in his embrace.

"Can't breathe xander."

"Oh right sorry. But I have some information for you." He said clutching the papers in his fist.

"Alright then follow me. Pea I will be in my office." She yelled so pea could hear from the kitchen and then headed towards the stairs.

No one said a word. They walked in silence until they reached the top of the stairs. Once they walked into her office Alexander's face dropped. She had forgotten about the mess in her office but ignored it and picked up two chairs for them.

"So what do you have xander?"

Alexander didn't respond, he was to busy examining the room. He looked carefully around the whole room. The broken glasses, the ripped papers, drops of blood on the floor, pieces of broken furniture all over the place. Alexander feared for his best friend.

"Hello? Xander?"

"Sorry alo, I was just a bit distracted." He turned his gaze to his once loving best friend. "I was snooping around when I heard astoria talking to someone. At first I didn't know who exactly it was but when I poked my head out to get a better look, well it was Ivy. They were talking about getting paid for what they did." He stopped talking to examine his best friends face. It was not going to be a good day for Greengrass or Pierce.

Alora thought Ivy was still her friend. She considered her as her best friend but she was wrong.

"Okay. Continue please." Alora spoke very softly.

"Well, I wanted to find out what they did so I spied on them more. But alora you have to promise me something okay."

"Yah okay I promise xander."

He sighed before talking again. "They wanted a way to hurt you I assume so they went after the one person you adored. They went after Ruth."

Alora's fist were already clenched and her face dropped.

"What? Well is she okay? Is she hurt in any way?"

"No but let me finish." She nodded her head and he continued. "They didn't get to her since most people were scared to touch a hair on her head because they knew how much she meant to you so most people protected her even if they didn't really know her. Luna lovegood had brought ruth to me right after they tried taking her. She wasn't harmed in any way and she is safe with Luna. Obviously when they knew nobody would let them hurt Ruth they went after Mattheo. Astoria told mattheo to meet in his dorm. I guess he didn't have time to get out when people from outside of hogwarts arrived and well did their work. The next day he was found with a letter. Astoria put on a show but no one believed her. That's all the information that I got."

Alexander feared for what alora was about to do but she just sat there not saying a word.

"So you are telling me it was greengrass and pierce that did this, is that correct?"

"Yes alo but just think befo-"

"Relax xander I won't do anything. Well anything to bad at least." And a smile appeared on her face and alexander knew that one of them would end up dead.

"Alo please just don't do anything. Im sorry but he's dead there isn't anything you could do. He isn't coming back."

And then there was a knock.
