48: VOLDEMORT SUMMONS HARRY TO THE FORBIDDEN FOREST⏃

A/N: I think this song fits well with the chapter. If you think otherwise, well, that's fine, no worries (?). It brought back memories of 'Stranger Things' :')

Ángeles' POV

I was starting to get scared when I noticed that, even when trying with all my strength, I couldn't move. The last time Snape had used a spell like this on me, I had been able to break it, but that wasn't happening now. Watching Draco slowly walk away, his face pale and scared, didn't help at all. It was strange; I couldn't feel the aura of this person. In fact, I couldn't feel anything that told me who it was.

"Well, if it isn't the little one playing hero," said the voice, growing closer. "It's a shame you can't move, don't you think?"

Suddenly, I felt his presence kneeling next to me, and a cold wand pressed against my neck. Fenrir Greyback, with that terrifying grin, seemed to be enjoying every second of my discomfort. I figured he wanted to bite me and turn me into something like him, but I wasn't going to allow it—at least not without trying to fight first. However, his cold stare at me was making me incredibly uncomfortable.

"Look at you, so helpless..." he said, standing next to me, whispering directly in my ear, keeping his wand at my neck. "Very different from that witch who brought the Dark Lord to the mansion... And you, Malfoy?" he said, looking at Draco, who looked horrified. "Aren't you going to save your little girlfriend?"

Draco swallowed hard, pulling his wand out of his pocket, trembling as he pointed it at Fenrir. His mouth moved, but no words seemed to come out. I couldn't blame him; Fenrir was truly terrifying. I'd probably cry out of fear if I could, and wasn't paralyzed.

"L-Let her go," Draco said, pointing his wand more decisively at Fenrir.

"And why would I do that?" Fenrir replied, smiling and caressing my face. "Your little girlfriend is something else... Maybe you wouldn't mind if I had a little fun with her..."

Draco's POV

The way Greyback was referring to her made me nauseous, while at the same time filling me with terror. I wasn't sure if my spell would be enough to stop him, but after hearing what he said and seeing the tears falling from Ángeles' face despite being immobilized, something inside me snapped, and I cast a disarming charm, followed by another to send him crashing into the wall a few meters away.

"Son of a bitch!" I shouted as I watched him slam into that wall.

I rushed to Ángeles and undid the immobilization spell, allowing her to breathe normally again. She looked scared, and rightfully so. I kneeled next to her and hugged her tightly, closing my eyes. However, we were interrupted by sounds from behind us. Greyback was getting up again, albeit with some difficulty.

Ángeles stood up, opening her eyes with surprise and fury, and they had something I hadn't seen up close but knew could happen if she lost control.

Her eyes were black again.

"Do you think that was enough, Malfoy?" Greyback yelled, approaching quickly. "Do you think you can take me down just by throwing me against a wall?"

Fenrir was behind us in the air after taking a big leap when Ángeles turned to face him with a serious expression, enveloping both herself and Fenrir in a red cloud, a cloud that, I don't know how, immobilized Fenrir mid-air just as he was about to pounce on us.
