Bellatrix's daughter in love with Neville Longbottom.

Chapter 10-Unexpected punishment

~Nevilles POV~
I could tell by her expression I wouldn't be getting a slap on the wrist for that remark. A million thoughts ran through my head as she raised her wand, the first was, Im going to die. Well, what was the point of fighting anyway? Almost all of us were already dead...there was no hope...I thought bitterly. That's when I glanced to Coraline who had retreated backwards. No. Maybe there was no hope, but there sure as hell were people worth protecting and worth fighting for. Innocent people subjected to the cruelty of voldemort and his followers.

That's when I realised I had felt no pain. What was she waiting for? I thought and studied her expression which had turned into a cruel smirk as she slowly stalked forwards. This menacing stance scared me more than her wand. I refused to step back however as she stopped right in front of me and made a point to look at Coraline. I frowned, scowling down at Thorne darkly, waiting for the yelling. She turned back up to me and suddenly her arms were around my neck pulling me down and her lips crashed to mine. I froze in absolute horror and disgust, it took a moment to register what the hell was happening and I immediately shoved her backwards.

~Thornes POV~
I smirked wickedly as I was pushed backwards, it did not matter, the damage was done. I looked to Coraline whose face was filled with hurt, I grinned innocently and winked "Sweetheart next time you cuddle up to a man I suggest you pick one who isn't taken" I purred. Her cheeks turned dark and her eyes welled with tears as she bolted away.

I laughed darkly and turned to smirk at Neville who looked dumbfounded and pissed. "Oh don't flatter yourself sweetheart, that was disgusting, Bloodtraitor filth" I scoffed and wiped my mouth "now, go and scrub the ballroom floors" I ordered firmly. "You got off easy pet" Neville ignored me "why would you do that!?" Neville exclaimed at me, I snickered in response "You couldn't tell she cared for you?" I mocked and smirked shaking my head "your blind pet, I was merely showing my dominance" I purred and he scowled darkly "She trusts you. I thought you might of been the fucking tiniest bit better than your mother, but your just like her! Messing with people's emotions just for fun!? Your sick!" Neville growled.

I blew him a kiss "why thank you" I cooed and tried to ignore the pang that shook my body at his words, a sick feeling of bile rose in my stomach and up my throat...what the hell was this?....guilt...."get to work before I glue your lips shut!" I said quickly and harshly to hide the emotions. What the hell was wrong with me?

It was now only an hour until the ball and I was getting nervous as I paced in my room. The dark lord would be here...I would have to complete my initiation task. Perhaps it would not be to difficult, after all, all cousin Draco had to do was kill a ruddy teacher. I let out a shaky breath as I looked in my full length mirror and studied myself. I wore a unzipped dark green dress that was tight and fell around my ankles elegantly. I had on black lace up heels and a black choker. My wild black hair was exactly that; wild. No use trying to tame it...I knew it would not bare successful. I looked at the clock as there was a knock on my door.

"Come in" I called examining the back of my attire with a soft frown. Coraline shuffled in her head hung low, she was wearing the short black dress all of mothers female slaves wore.
"Mistress?" She said softly.
"speak up Coraline" I demanded.
"Mistress?" She repeated a little louder.
"Yes Coraline?" I said looking at her in the mirror.
"N...Neville is downstairs, he has finished his tasks" she said quietly looking down to hide her face which I knew was covered with hurt feelings and a vulnerable whimper.
"Bring him to me" I said firmly and glanced at her with a soft sigh "thank you...Coraline" I added and she looked up at me with a soft nod and quickly scampered out. I softly cursed in my head and went back to examining myself.
