"The Slytherin Dynasty's"

The sun gleamed down on my dark pigmented skin. Relaxation setting in as my eyes closed under my sunglasses.

That was until a large figure fell on top of me his wet sand covered skin on mine. "Kieran I'm gonna kill you!" I threatened pushing him off of me.

"Don't blame me! Blame Scorpius." He advised. "What? That's complete bullshit Em, I would never let that disgusting creature touch you." Scorpius declared. I let out a loud huff wiping my skin to get the sand off from it.

The boys crowded around me offering to help in an instant. "Can you guys not be so pervy?" I rolled my eyes at them both.

They were the idiotic duo.

Kieran Riddle, the younger Riddle twin. His father being the infamous Mattheo Riddle and his mother the tragic Dabria Weasley. She has portraits all around the school of her.

Then there's Scorpius Malfoy, he's the carbon copy of his father except he's way more fun and Lives life to the fullest. He's sorta a manwhore but that's only because Kieran rubbed off on him. Pure Angle turned into a Satan spawn. Kieran being Satan himself.

"Don't act like you didn't enjoy me on top of you." Kieran winked at me with his signature grin. "As if, I have standards." I told him standing up from my now sandy towel.
"Hey sexy mama." Athalia called out to me.

Athalia Riddle, the older Riddle twin. Raging lesbian but she isn't out of the closet yet. She's the wild one of the group. She's walks around like she own the whole world and if she wanted to I bet she could. Her smile could light the whole galaxy on fire.

"Hey Lia, what happened to Liliah and Bella?" I looked around the almost empty beach searching for my other bestfriend. I spotted her by the water three guys standing around her as she batted her long eyelashes.

This is just what Lilah does.

Her real name being Delilah Nott. Delilah's dad is Theodore Nott and her mothers well, gone. As in she packed her things and left so we just act like she never existed. She toyed with guys for fun and even if they did know she wasn't serious about them they stayed. All she had to do is put her hand on her hip and giggle and boom their trapped.

"Lilah! Come on!" I hollered to her as we began to pack our things. "Oh come on Em, let her have her fun." Lia grinned. "It's getting cloudy and late." I observed the sky pointing to the clouds covering the sun. Bella came jogging in from the water.

Arabella was Scorpius's younger sister by a year. She was a ray of sunshine. A little shy at times but as feisty as it gets. She has wavy blonde hair and these gorgeous blue eyes. Kinda a hippy and a party girl at the same time if that makes sense.

Well last but definitely not least, me.

Ember Zabini, daughter of Blaise Zabini and Amelia Jenkins. My mother, Amelia, got cancer about 4 years ago and passed away a year later. So it's just my dad and I. I'm a little quiet at times but I have a terrible temper.

With our parents being friends we all grew up with eachother. So that's my friend group, the Slytherins Last Dynasty's.

"Sorry guys they wouldn't let me leave." Lilah said out of breath. "Mhm like all the last 78 guys." I joked with her. She scoffed playfully shoving me and grabbing her things.

It began to downpour in mere minutes so we all made a run for the van. Yes, the van. We may all be super rich superior Slytherin kids but how the hell are we supposed to fit 6 teenagers in a Mercedes?

Kieran owns it so he drives mostly. While Scorpius, Athalia, Delilah, and Arabella sit in the back. Then I'm forced to sit in the front so Kieran doesn't get lonely. Mostly we just argue so I don't know why they don't let me sit in the back with them.

"My apologies for getting some sand on you, princess." He muttered to me. He obviously didn't mean it. "My apologies for telling Heather that you cheated on her last month." I remarked. I settled into my seat my arms crossing over my chest.

"I fucking knew it was you." He groaned. "What the fuck Ember?" His voice heightened. "You don't get to be mad at me now!" I countered back at him. "You're just fucking jealous!" He accuses.

"Of what? That she had to deal with your carrot dick for 3 months?" See? It always turns into an argument. "Guys not again." Scorpius wined.

It was raining harder now and we had to go to Riddle manor where our parents were "chatting". We knew that was their cover up for getting high and drinking too much.

The van pulled into the driveway, all the lights were on. The group and I hopped out of the car shielding ourselves from the rain. When we opened the doors our parents were at the dining table playing never have I ever.

"Hey kids!" Astoria Malfoy announced. "Hi mum." Bella gave her a quick hug standing beside her. "How was the beach?" Mister Riddle asked.

"Great, got some rays." I told him as I pulled out a seat next to my father. "How was the water?" My father asked. "I don't know ask Kieran." I rolled my eyes at him. "It was warm today." Of course as soon as the parents are around he's civilized.

"Well continue on with the game, don't let us ruin the party." I told them. "Oh this isn't a party..." Mister Malfoy quickly said. "It's not?" Mister Nott whispered to Mister Riddle.

"Actually your dad was just about to tell us about his new girlfriend, you like her?" Mrs. Astoria smiled at me. My smile dropped as I look at my dad confused.

"What?" I questioned him. "She didn't know I was dating yet guys..." he mumbled rubbing his temple. "No uhm, it's fine. You deserve to be happy." I gave him a fake supporting smile before excusing myself from the table. I wondered if he was ever going to tell me.

I walked up the long steps looking at the pictures put up on the walls. And there she was. Dabria Weasley, my godmother.

She was in almost every picture that was framed. Usually the most pictures up would be of your kids but not in Riddle Manor.

In Riddle Manor there were only dark and sad reminders of what had happened to her. Including the locked door at the end of the hall where she used to sleep in.

Nobody was ever allowed to enter that room and nobody has.

I don't think anyone ever will either.
