Renn's Pov



"Can we talk ?" Draco asked while twirling his wand around. Clearly nervous that I was going to reject him.

"Yes. I was actually going to call for you at some point."

"You...you were ?" He stuttered out as a confused expression overcame his pointed features.

"Yes I was. There was a lot that was said last night and I wanted to clear the air. All of the bad energy between us isn't good for my stress levels." I stated trying to seem nonchalant.

"Right because of the baby." He spoke in a melancholy way as he looked around my room.

"Well yes but also because I care about you Draco. You're my best friend and I hate all the tension between us." I said as I moved over and patted the edge of the bed so he could come and sit.

He regarded the spot where I was patting but didn't make a movement that indicated he was going to come and sit. Instead he just stood there.

"Well you started all of this by running away with my father and apparently having a secret affair with Yaxley behind my back. How did you expect me to react with all of that information Renn ?" The question felt rhetorical but I answered it anyways.

"I didn't need your permission to sleep with someone Draco ! I've already told you it wasn't my intention to get pregnant. Your father was fuming when I told him about the dalliance I had with Yaxley. I was his responsibility to look after and he failed yet again. I put both him and I in danger with the Dark Lord."Anger was coursing through me but I still managed to be levelheaded enough to not incriminate Lucius.

"See that's one thing I still don't understand. Why was the Dark Lord so concerned with your well being in the first place ?"

The question took me back for a moment. Had I not told him that I was Voldemort's daughter ?

"Draco...once we got to the cottage your father told me some information that was pretty shocking and disturbing to me. Apparently the Dark Lord is my biological father." The statement set Draco's tight features into one's of pure shock. His mouth dropped open and eyes widened in a mix of terror and panic.

"What the fuck ?! How ?!" He cried out.

"I don't think I have to tell you how sex works Draco." I spoke skeptically not really sure what he was asking me.

"That's not what I mean Renn and you know it ! Did your father-I mean Matthew know about this ?" He questioned as he held onto my dresser for support.

"Your father told me that the Dark Lord said it was possible that Matthew suspected something but didn't ever know for certain. Or at least if he did he never mentioned it to anyone. Although I look exactly like how Tom Riddle looked before he turned into...well...before." Draco observed me in an analytic way for a moment before he nodded his head.

"I agree. You do look like a female version of the Dark Lord's younger self. I guess I never really paid attention to that because I didn't think he would ever want to reproduce or have an heir."

I took a deep breath at his words and started to prepare myself for the lies that were about to come out of my mouth. "That's the thing, he didn't want an heir. I don't think he was at all happy when he found out that my mother was pregnant with me, that's why he let her pass Matthew off as my father. Why he let him raise me."

"So why did he tell my father all of this then ?" Draco let go of the dresser and finally came to sit down as he pondered the question aloud.

I couldn't tell Draco about the blood sacrifice because he might figure out that I got pregnant on purpose and that Lucius knew about that and then he will wonder why we ran away and before you know it he'll figure out that Lucius is the father and no amount of lying will be able to get us out of that. There would always be the option of obliviating Draco again but that would only work for so long. Eventually he would figure it out again and if we continued to obliviate him there would be dire long term affects on his memory as a whole.
