Secret Meeting

Chapter 75 Secret Meeting

It had been five months since Harry was born. The young parents enjoyed walking out around the little town to show off their new son.

Another man was very busy and had been wondering about Lily and her new baby constantly. He had not been able to see her and worried endlessly about her. Snape was of course busy working for Voldermort and was hoping that at some time he would be able to see Lily soon. What he was not expecting was the announcement about Lord Voldermort’s plan.

“Severus, I have a job for you. I am going to need to know all I can about the child belonging to Lily Potter and information on her!”

Snape looked at him in surprise, “Information on her?”

“Yes, if I am to put a stop to this prophecy I must take care of the child and his parents, before he is able to grow old enough to be a problem to me. I shall put an end to the life of the child and his parents.”

Snape felt as though the blood in his veins had turned to ice. He couldn’t breathe properly.

“They have as you know, stopped my plans three times so far, and are a part of the Order of the Phoenix. I shall need to know where they live.” Voldermort looked at Snape a spy for him that was as valuable as any, and more so than others. He was mystified by the way Snape was looking at him.

“Is there a problem, with your orders?”

“No my Lord, I ….” Snape closed his eyes for a moment, “If I may ask a favor?” Snape knew he was taking a big risk here.

Voldermort looked at him speculatively. “Proceed Severus.” The Dark Lord finally said as he watched him warily. He was the first to ever ask a favor of him he knew his followers were too scared to do anything as daring as to ask a favor of him.

“The woman, Lily I have a….. a personal interest in her.” Snape gulped and went on. “She has been a…. pleasant…. diversion at times. If possible, could you spare her life? I am not at all concern for her husband and child, they you can kill, but please, spare the woman?” Snape didn’t want him to see any emotions in him for Lily; it could all go horrible wrong.

“The Mudblood is a diversion for you?” Voldermort seemed to find this amusing.

“Yes My Lord.” Snape said quickly.

“If I am able, I shall spare her life for you, since you have been a very faithful and accomplished spy for me.”

Snape felt as though he might be able to breathe properly now. Not completely right but a little easier.

“Although, if I am not able to spare her life. I will not hesitate; to kill her.” The icy coldness in his voice left Snape shaking with fear.

“I…… understand My Lord.” Snape said softly the feeling as though he could no longer breathe returned and a thousand arrows had now pierced his heart. Kill my Lily, oh please no. he thought desperately.

“I would not worry too much Severus; there are much better women out there of purer stock and more worthy of your time and interest.” Voldermort informed him coldly.

“Yes My Lord. You are correct on that.” Snape replied. Other women out there, there is no other women I could ever love. How could he even suggest I look for some other woman, I only want will always want my Lily, my little Muggle girl. I could never love another woman, never.

Snape thought bitterly about the words tossed at him so coldly by the man he was supposed to support and worship in all things, the man who was planning on killing his beloved Lily.
