Trente huit

Avella and Victor had finally moved to Paris, where now they're child Noelle, was only one. And was destined to go to the Beauxbatons in fear Noelle would meet someone like Tom at Hogwarts.

Avella was working late one night when a shadowy figure followed her down a street. She got her wand and swiftly shone the light of her wand to see Tom's face there, stern as ever.

"How did you find me?" She replied

"You need to help me. This once!" He looked at her solemnly

"I have moved on! Understand that Tom, ask Lucretia. Oh wait, she's married now. You're too late. " Avella sharply replied

"Please. This once I will never bother you or your...Victor, again" he gulped

"Don't hurt them."  She gritted her teeth

"Who's them? I thought it was you and Victor?" He replied taken back

"I've had a child Tom, I have other priories than your stupid games!" She devilishly replied

He tried to use his Occulumency on her, she refrained it.

"Please, once." He stepped forward

"What do you want?" She sighed

"Albania. It's been my dream, I need help looking for that diadem!" He desperately answered

"I cant just take time off for you, Noelle is only one years old! I have to take care of her. I cant just leave France!" Avella retorted

"I Will kill your family if you do. Not to forget you precious Noelle." He warned

"You don't scare me! If you lay a finger on any of them I will murder you!" She pointed her wand at his sharp features.

"Join me. We leave tomorrow, you apparate to here." He pointed to a map

She sighed as his shadow disentergrated.

She ran to their apartment on the fifth floor.

"Victor, we have to leave. You along with Noelle, now!" Avella burst in, alarmed

"What's wrong, Chérie? What's happened?" Victor got up from his armchair and hugged her deeply

"It's Tom" she hyperventilated

He looked at her, a flicker of fear in his eyes.

"We have to move, he can't find us. Victor, I'm leading you to something horrible. I'm leading you to death!" Avella choked up tears

"What are you saying?" Victor remained calm, the fire lighting up their faces

"As long as I am alive he will continue to haunt me like a shadow. He has even threatened to kill you, I'm leading you and Noelle into danger. He is dangerous!" Avella held his hands

"I'm not here to run away, not as long as your in danger" Victor smiled

"No. You don't understand he's more powerful than you, or Noelle. You can't fend. He only wants me, it's best." Avella broke down

She couldn't get away. She couldn't be happy as long as he's alive.

"Don't let him do this you,
Chérie." He lead her to their room.

"I'll look after Noelle. You rest" he kissed her before going back to their child.

Avella, at midnight. Got up and wrote a note.

Dear mon cher,

I'm sorry I've had to do this so soon. I love You but this for your safety. I cant do this to you anymore it isn't fair in your or Noelle. Keep her safe, I know this is very cowardly. But it is for the best. You are first, I am second. This is what I'm doing. You'll have no trace, no postcode. Nothing. It pains me so to write this, my dear Victor. You deserve someone better than me. You deserve someone who dosent bring danger and death knocking at your door.

Please, let me go. For you and Noelle's sake. I love
You greatly. But i love you so much, i have to let
you go.

Avella Lestrange.

She put the pen down. Tears forming as she left it on the side. She walked out the door. With only a rucksack full of clothes and picture of them two.

She apparated, and found Tom's tent in a middle of a forest. She opened it, he was sitting at a table, the tent had an extendable charm, so it was a house basically.

"I didn't think you'd show up" he went to greet her

"Obliviate me" she asked putting her wand in his hands

He stared at her blankly.

"Why would I do that?" He answered

Her tears kept forming, she was too heartbroken.

"Erase my memory of them, Victor and Noelle" she hardly spoke drowning in the tears she had formed hereelf

He sighed. She could see what he had done. His heart ached her to see her so heartbroken

"Or I'll kill myself, what one would you prefer, Tom?" She rage-fully replied

"Obliviate." He cast the wand at her

She had stopped crying and her eyes went wide, like when she was in year 7.

"Tom? So are we going to look for that diadem then?" Avella replied

"Why am i crying" she tapped her face, her palms were wet.

"You just had one of your..breakdowns" he replied

Old Avella was back.

"We're married?" She looked at the ring on her finger.

She had forgotten it was Victor's ring.

"Yes, you are Mrs Riddle." He kissed her ring finger.

"Where's your ring?" She asked

"Here" he held his up. It was the Slytherin ring she had given him.

"I can't recall the past few years...what happened?" She asked oblivious

"You were in a coma. You had hit your head" he smirked

"Oh. Well I best be getting some sleep" she went over and set up on the sofa.

Oh what a ride this was going to be. This was Tom's plan. And it was falling into place, faster than he'd expected.

Avella was finally hid again.
