THE SHADOWS IN THE LIGHT (A Draco Malfoy Fanfiction)

PROLOGUE

“ I wonder the efforts and sacrifices, we do, we never thought we would for someone when we're in love with them”

****

We received our Hogwarts letters today, and again I am so excited for it. It's my 3rd year to Hogwarts. I still remember my first year at Hogwarts, It was obvious to me to get a letter as I was born in a pure-blood family. And both my parents studied at Hogwarts from Ravenclaw house.

Well, my Father always wanted Me and my sister, Claire Willson to study in Beauxbatons academy of magic, But my mom refused to send us far away.

I Can't wait to leave this place, I call home where my dad hates me and the reason?

Well, I don't know and neither I am interested in. He behaves really different in front of outsiders, like he really loves me, and I'm his dear princess. Well, I am he never said no for anything I ever wanted, but he's quite rude to me.

This place is massive for just 4 people, and honestly, I feel really alone in this Mansion.

I have started my packing, it's almost done. My dad enters my room and asks if I have seen my elder sister Claire, I respond “No, maybe she's in her room”.

My dad throws a glare and shuts the door, and I have no idea why is he so rude to me but so nice to my sister, and I hate him for that.

Maybe because she was sorted in Ravenclaw. I feel she's the dumbest Ravenclaw I've seen.

The sorting hat said, “I see passion, bold and assertiveness, realistic, always prepared for what's going to be in her way, adaptable and wily can go any extent to get someone or something, better be SLYTHERIN”.

When I was sorted in Slytherin, it was a kind of shock to me, My dad was really disappointed.

My mom (Keelin Willson) and my
dad (Mark Willson) they both were from Ravenclaw house.

My sister and I are pure-blood witches,
I don't understand why, but she's really proud of that, while to me, it never really mattered.

My Mother says, “Muggles, half blood or pure blood they all should be respected because they're all humans and I agree with her.

I hear a knock at my door, it's my Mother she enters my room, “Are you done with your packing sweetie?” and honestly, she's the only person really nice to me in this house and I answer her saying, ”Yes I just need to get Dexter into his cage, and I am all set”.

“Oh! Great” she says wearing a soft close lips smile and further continues, “honestly you're the perfect daughter, your sister is still looking for her robes”.

I don't have any idea what to say, so I just smile, I love when someone appreciates me and I lock my trunk.

It's the time to leave, and my mother calls me aside and hands me my pendent, it's a small oval shaped emerald with a beautiful vintage design. She lovingly placed her arms around me and gave me a soft forehead kiss, “I'll miss you” she said, which made me cry.

“Oh I almost forgot it”, I say My voice is Brittle and I try to hide my watery eyes, “I'll miss you too mom”, I whisper in her ear.

After our arms released each other's, a smile is spread across her face, and she says, "It happens honey, don't you ever miss place it again”. While looking at me and a tear falls down my eyes, she wipes it.
“I'll be with you always until this is with you”, she whispered, making me grin.

I look at the pendent and swirl it around my neck, I don't know why she always makes me wear that pendent I love it though, but she never told me the reason, I guess it's not needed.

“You'll be 15 in a few months, Just remember you're just as old as you feel” My mother says looking at me.

We get to diagon alley to buy some things, It's packed as usual, I meet my cousins Ginny, Ron, George, and Fred Weasley. My aunt Molly asks me about My mom (her sister) with a damp smile on her face.

Claire interrupts, “She will meet us directly at the platform”.

To which Molly says, “Oh great dear”. She looks at her wristwatch and says, “Come on let's go or else we'll be late”.

We get in the Hogwarts express. I wave at my mom, and she waves back, my dad knows how to act good in front of people, so he gives me a weird fake smile and waves, I feel it would be better not to respond to him, so I act like I didn't see that.
