"𝓥ela," He stated, a wicked grin plastered on his rotten skin. "Give me Vela Malfoy."
Narcissa Malfoy physically gulped.
No. Not my little girl, please.
The temporary head of the Malfoy house cast her eyes to the table, unable to do anything about it. The Death Eater nodded to his master and walked away, going to fetch the girl.
"M-My Lo-lord, I must ask you to recon-"
"Hush, Narcissa," the Dark Lord cut off the stuttering female from speaking any further. Out of fear, the black-haired woman with silver highlights shut her mouth and lowered her head. "I've made my decision. Vela Malfoy will become a Death Eater, she will join me just as her father and her brother did. I'll have you know that this is Lucius' punishment for failing me."
Vela knew this day would come.
It hadn't been a full week since her twin brother Draco was given the Dark Mark and she knew she wouldn't be far from getting it too. It's not like she didn't expect it, you get one twin, you must get the other.
It was sad, really.
Their whole family was on Voldemort's side. Lucius had been a Death Eater far before the twins were born, once their elder brother Xayvion comes home he will surely get the mark, Draco had gotten it recently, and Vela was following up right behind her twin.
She only wished they wouldn't include her youngest brother, Daemon, for he was too innocent and pure, he was not fit for the dark side. And in addition to that, he was only twelve—a child.
Unlike her brother Draco, who had gotten his Dark Mark with a smile, Vela was not particularly excited to join Voldemort's ranks.
It didn't matter what side she preferred, she was practically born into this as she was a Malfoy. Fourteen years of peace were taken away from her family in an instant when the Dark Lord returned.
Vela fought back tears when the Death Eater gripped her wrist too tightly, she knew it was going to bruise. On the way to the meeting room, they passed through multiple rooms and as Vela looked at one particular locked wooden door, she wondered if the person who resided inside was going to be in today's meeting.
She hoped so. She's never seen him ever since he moved in along with his father months ago — it got her curious about him; what he looked like, what his voice sounded like, if he was noseless like his father or not. Many questions though never answered.
