I was angry with Tom and he was well aware of my anger towards him at the moment.
"Oh come on baby it wasn't that deep" He said as he opened the marble doors for me. A ball was being hosted to celebrate the success of his deatheaters. It was being held at the Malfoy Manner. Lucius and Narcissa had insisted on hosting. Me and Tom didn't argue, we weren't going to be the ones responsible for the food, guest, music etc.
I scoffed annoyed at Tom. He let Bellatrix run her hands all over his body during a meeting. I thought he'd at least tell her off or politely remove herself off of him. But he didn't.
"you look very handsome my lord" Bellatrix said bowing reaching for his hand and curtsying like a fucking chicken.
"Oh my and your arms they're very muscular" Bellatrix says as she runs her dirty hands down Toms arms. I expected him to push her off but he does nothing but nod.
"Thank you Lestrange" Tom says calmly before his turns his gaze away from her. I was fuming with anger.
He was such a hypocrite. The one time Sirius hugged me Tom accused me of cheating on him. Claimed I hugged Sirius for too long meaning we were having an affair. But here he was letting another woman put herself all over him as if it meant nothing.
"Oh thank you lestrange" I mocked Tom annoyed. He chuckles before pulling me closer to him as we walk into the Malfoy Manor. Hundreds of his followers are present. I see many familiar faces from meetings I've been to and the faces of Deatheaters who've been to our home.
When they notice sight of Tom they begin bowing their heads. I see Tom smirk. He enjoys this. He enjoys the power he holds among everyone in this room. Narcissa and Lucius make their way to both me and Tom happily greeting us.
I use this as an opportunity to get away from Tom still angry with him. I slip out of Toms grip he shoots his head up feeling me slip away. Attempting to grab me Lucius and other deatheaters greet and start a conversation with Tom, leaving him no choice but to remain with them. I push my way through the crowd of Deatheaters hoping to find a quieter place.
I spot a balcony way in the back of the manor. It was less crowded in this area. I could hear the loud chatter of people along with the music playing. Waiters were walking around holding glasses of what looked like wine along with platters of snails and crackers.
Opening the glass door that leads to the balcony I'm hit with the sudden breeze of cool air. The moon shined beautifully tonight it was a full moon. I enjoyed the silence just staring off. The Malfoys were quite big fans of gardening. I never realized how neat and beautiful their garden was. It was quite obvious it was the work of Narcissa. A marble fountain stood in the middle of their garden. Many flowers and bushes formed a pathway with benches placed at ends of the flowers. It was quite calming.
I shivered. I was wearing a dark green silk dress that had thin straps around my shoulders. My heels were a clean white color. They were the shoes my mother had gifted me.
My thoughts were cut short as the glass doors open. I turn around to see who's came outside only to realize it was Draco, who I believed was the Malfoys oldest child.
"What are you doing out here?" Draco asked me.
"I could ask you the same thing" I replied turning around looking at him. He stood awkwardly with both his hands in his pockets.
"Fair point" He says. I turn around turning my gaze back out.
"Don't be shy Draco I won't bite" I said chuckling as I moved over making room for him to accompany me. I heard him walk over to the balcony before leaning over the stone marble railing.
