The revelation of Cassiopeia's allegiance to the Dark Lord came as a devastating blow to Harry. He had suspected that something was wrong, but hearing the truth from Cassiopeia herself was almost too much to bear.

One evening, as they sat together in the Room of Requirement, Cassiopeia took a deep breath and began to speak.

"Harry, there's something I need to tell you," she said, her voice trembling.

Harry's heart pounded. "What is it?"

Cassiopeia looked down, unable to meet his gaze. "My family... they've been pressuring me to join Voldemort. I've tried to resist, but the pressure has been too much. I... I've been given tasks by the Dark Lord."

Harry felt a wave of shock and betrayal. "What kind of tasks?"

Cassiopeia's eyes filled with tears. "Draco and I have been ordered to find a way to let Death Eaters into Hogwarts. We're supposed to kill Dumbledore."

Harry's mind raced, the gravity of the situation sinking in. "Cassiopeia, this is serious. We have to tell someone. We have to stop this."

Cassiopeia shook her head, her tears falling freely. "I know, Harry. But if we do, my family will be in danger. Draco and I are trapped."

Harry pulled her into a tight embrace, his heart breaking for her. "We'll find a way, Cassiopeia. We'll protect your family and stop Voldemort. I promise."

As they held each other, Harry felt a renewed sense of determination. He knew that their love would be tested like never before, but he was willing to fight for Cassiopeia and for the future they both wanted.
