The slytherin queen

Chapter 22: My Story

-" My story begins with a little ginger girl who got lost in that hallway while I was looking for the bathroom, That was in my first year, I was found by some teacher, he actually disguised because he kidnapped me and took me with him.

"I woke up in a cell and it was dark, I was crying so hard, my eyes were burning, As I started screaming, he came and proposed to work with him. I declined and he tortured me. He had this knife carved out of a fire dragon. It was a knife that couldn't be broken or something, he stabbed me in the neck with it while he hit me with the crucio spell. It went on with this unbearable torture for months before I gave up to him. Don't judge me because of that, I was just eleven years old and I really didn't know anything. For months, my only friends were the shadows in the dark, they helped me survive, they healed me when I was hurt, and they took the pain away when I was in torture. I learned to master them, and they became my friends in my darkest times. They were there for me. But be careful as they can kill a man by eating him from his head with all the regrets, the sorrow, and every bad emotion he can have. That's what they did to Blaise, but I stopped them before they could kill him. They kill with what I suffered. They're my only real friends.

"I spent two years with him, he trained me, helped me master my power, taught me how to kill, how to turn off my emotions. He had this kind of hard teaching, every time I made one simple mistake, he would just punish me for it. Sometimes, he would stab me, maybe beat me almost to death. He would heal me with herbs or a spell just so he could do it again.

" I learned to gain his trust, I did everything he wanted. I became his favorite. On my twelfth birthday, he confessed that I am his daughter. I wasn't very surprised by it because I knew somehow I was like him. I am evil too, I killed people for my sake too.

"It wasn't until the end of the second year that I planned my escape, I learned everything that needed to be known, I learned who the guards were, and where he kept any spare wands or brooms in case I needed one. I went out at night and surpassed every obstacle keeping me from my freedom. But just as I touched it, he found me and captured me once more. At that moment, I lost all hope, I was going to die that night, I knew it. Even if I was only twelve, I was a bit smart and responsible for my age. Pain and suffering will do that to you. I never felt like a kid.

"Strapped to a chair, he asked if I had any last words, he said that I was going to be a wasted death but that he couldn't risk me going anywhere without his supervision. I looked around me, All the death eaters were there, your parents were there, Draco. I remember their white hair and your mother's feared expression. She gave me courage, that expression helped me save myself. I launched my power right then and there. My eyes became green and my hair was dancing with the wind I created. He shot his killing curse but I absorbed it like I did with Blaise's spells. He was astonished as he didn't know I could do that. By then, I was invincible. Yes, I killed a group of men but they weren't innocent, they were holding me when he was going to kill me. My shadows took good care of them, they still brag about their taste. But I didn't kill everyone, some I let escape, including your parents. They still came home to you, did they? He rode a dragon, I didn't know which type of dragon it was but I fought against it. My power was full on, and it was weakening it. He fell to the ground and I held on to the knife with the dragon carving and slayed it so that he wouldn't attack someone else. My father was my last deal, I opted to give him mercy and leave because he had nothing left anymore, but he didn't give up and tried to murder me over and over, and I would show him he couldn't over and over. Until I got tired and my power was growing weaker, I made a spell on him and bound him to that place, he couldn't get out at all. I thought that was the perfect punishment. I was young, I thought my father could have his redemption if he stayed alone but he chose not to. And I see that he broke my spell. He's waiting for my third task, he's going to kill me then and finish his task. Then he would do whatever the hell he wanted with Harry.

"He hates failed tasks, and Harry and I? We are his most crucial failed tasks. I know what you'll think of me now, that I was weak that I gave up, that I teamed up with him, or that I was mean and evil and a monster for killing an innocent dragon and a bunch of people, but they deserved it, Draco. They deserved it, they deserved it"

He held her in his arms while she kept repeating it over and over again.

"They deserved death, they deserved it"

His hands went through her hair, his lips neared her ears.

"You are not weak, Amalia, you're brave, you're bold and you did things no one would be able to ever do in their life. You're not a monster, you're an angel, you're the one who would stand up for what is right and stand against what is wrong. Your methods may be mean, they may be evil but that doesn't define who you are. You are the best fighter I've ever met, you never lost a fight, and you won't lose now"

She looked up at him with tears in her eyes, but quickly buried her face in his chest.

"Thank you" She mumbled it so low that he wouldn't hear the words if he didn't lay his chin on her head holding her while she sobbed against her chest.

They kept still for a while, she let it loose. Everything that was building up inside her was loosening slowly.

He finally pulled her away and lifted her chin, he kissed her tears away and kept staring at her for some long seconds.

"You're beautiful"

He cupped her cheeks and kissed her.

She kissed him back, gripping his hair.

He pulled back.

She did too.

He held her hand, she looked down at their hands.

"Marry me"

Her head shot upwards. She looked at him with disbelief.

"Aren't we too young for that?"

He shrugged.

"What do you have in mind, Draco?"

He gave her one of his most famous feral grins. He went to one of the drawers while speaking.

"It's actually why I went to my parent's house in the first place, to get you this."

He was holding an emerald ring in his hand. It was simple but still the most gorgeous one ever. His band was made of silver, she could tell. And the stones above were green with little shades of black.

He went down on one knee in front of her.

"Amalia Lily Elizabeth Potter Snape Riddle, will you marry me? "

She gasped with every word, and her hand went to cover her mouth.

At first, she started nodding slowly, then it became rushed. She couldn't stop it.

"Yes, yes, yes, A million times yes."

With a smile, he slowly put the ring on her finger. She eyed it up, tried to touch it but restrained herself out of fear of breaking it. She hugged him with all her power. He didn't complain and hugged her back.

When she kissed him, he kissed her back.

It was joy, it was happiness she was feeling.

It was a feeling she could only feel with Draco.

He always brings up this addictive feeling when she's with him.

They pulled back to breathe, and he looked at her with a smile.

"I love you, Slytherin Queen"

"I love you too, Slytherin King"
