"Why?"'

Silence echoed throughout the room, the rows of books listening to Pandora Ivy Potter Malfoy and Tom Marvolo Riddle in interest and curiosity.
"You don't have to know that."
He looked away, his hazel eyes turning into a deep dark tint of red.
"I do if I'm getting involved."
Tom Riddle glared at her, his harsh facial features glowering at her. "Things would be easier if you listened to me."
"I am, I just want to know the reason."
He walked towards the leather settee, pouring himself a glass of fire whiskey and gulping it down fiercely.
Pandora walked towards him and grabbed the bottle, clutching onto it. "Pandora don't."
She grinned as she poured herself a cup and chugged it down, not reacting to the burning sensation one bit.
His eyes widened as realization morphed on his face.
"Pandora-"
He walked across and grabbed the fire whiskey bottle of her hands and placed it on her desk.
"Go to your room, I'll get some house elve to bring you dinner."

"Fine then."
She smirked smugly as she walked off, slamming the door behind her and walking to the room opposite his.

The room had an essence of books and cigarettes, something she loved that deeply gave her comfort. She walked to the dresser and grabbed herself a towel before sauntering off towards the bathroom, humming to herself.

She opened the faucet and water spewed and splattered onto the surface of the bathtub, smoke dancing around it.
She walked towards the cabinet and took out this luxurious-looking bath gel and mercilessly poured all of it inside.

A sudden knock echoed throughout the two rooms.
Pandora walked towards the door and opened it.

"Miss Malfoy, The Dark Lord divulged us to ask you what you want for dinner."

Pandora groaned in annoyance.

"What is there?."

The house elf lightened up.
"Shrimp Scampi Pasta..uh Smothered Pork chops with Broccoli and Mushrooms, strip stake with lemon mashed potatoes and I think French onion soup."

"Bring the French onion soup."

"Right away!"

Pandora slammed the door and walked into the bathroom, striping her dress off and taking the uncomfortable heels off. The hot water had bubbles to the brim and Pandora decided it was best if she turned the tap off before entering.
Steam gathered around her, her verdant lush eyes shutting in ecstasy as her muscles relaxed, all the tension and mystery from today disappearing. Pandora thought about how she had been betrayed by the others, how Lucius treated her like a bag of dirt, and how Draco betrayed her at every opportunity. It was better if she stayed alone, by herself...maybe with Tom, if he wanted to be with her. Her mind drifted to when he had asked her about Dumbledore. What was he planning, and why did he need her for it?!
Her eyes sparkled in realization.

Was he using her?

She stood up, water dripping from her body, and got out of the bathtub, wearing a robe as she heard the stupid house elve knocking on her door.

"Miss Malfoy- Miss?"
Dobby's squeaky voice echoed throughout the corridors.

"Yes?!"

"I've got your French onion soup!"

Pandora glared at the house elve before grabbing the tray full of food and placing it on her desk.

"Right, go now."

Her previous thoughts wandered back to her mind as she wore a silk swarthy blue gown and walked to the old-fashioned balcony, the wind blowing her hair in all orientations as she looked at the dead, lifeless countryside.
Her hair had gone back to it's original brunette rendition as the stupid muggle couldn't use a hair dye box correctly.

Waste of money.

She walked inside and sat down at her desk, consuming the French onion soup in silence, her heart fastly beating.

Tomorrow she had to go back to Hogwarts as she missed a whole day without any type of permission, well Lucius must have done something, probably.

She barely attended class anyway.

Pandora took a sip of her water before walking towards the double bed and slept on the silk green sheets.

-----------------------------------------------

I've decided on making minimum 650 words as the other chapters are ridiculously short.

Btw the other chapters in the beginning of the book are heavily edited, Voldemort isn't there anymore bc I just realised how weird he was.

Thank you for all the comments on chapter 81, Really appreciate it❤️

Melissa.
