Him - A Harry Potter Love Story

Chapter Thirty-One

A/N I realized while editing this chapter that there seemed to be a lot of typos, and although I fixed the ones I saw, I'm sure there are more😂Please just ignore them

I woke up, my entire body aching. Without opening my eyes, I let out a small groan, only moving my arm so I could rest a hand against my throbbing head.

"Master! She's awake!"

My eyes shot open. I found myself temporarily paralyzed with fear as I stared into the eyes of Voldemort himself.

Despite the pain I was in, I stood up, whipping my wand out of my back pocket.

"Cassandra Winters. We meet at last," he sighed, an eerie smile on his face.

"Wh-why-where-" I stuttered, failing at trying to sound confident as I had planned. A few of the death eaters standing around us snickered. My face burned as I pointed my wand at him.

"Tell me, Cassandra, would you want to hear about your parents?" he asked. I narrowed my eyes.

"I already know what happened. You forced them to abandon me."

"Oh, Sirius Black did not tell you everything," he chuckled, starting to circle around me slowly. I didn't move, lowering my wand.

"What do you mean?"

"And neither did Potter."

I gulped.

"He wouldn't keep anything from me," I whispered.

"Well, he did," Voldemort said. "Last year. You never would recall being possessed on your own, after all."

I didn't answer.

"And Dumbledore. He knows everything, but he never told you," he murmured, leaning in close to my ear. I tensed up, squeezing my eyes shut.

"What? What do you know about my parents?"

He chuckled, moving away to stand in front of me again.

"I know where they are."

I finally exploded.

"Expelliarmus!" I screamed, his hand immediately flying up to block the spell. He obviously used the rebound jinx, for my wand slipped from my hand, landing in his.

"Immobulous!" a death eater hissed, and I felt my limbs become useless; I was frozen.

Voldemort, laughed, stepping up close to me.

"So predictable," he tutted, pocketing my wand. "It's a shame your dearest Harry is as well."

I stared at him, fear now coursing through me. What was he going to do to Harry?!

"When he sees his poor little Cassie being tortured, he's going to come running," he explained, smirking evilly. "Although, I'm sure he won't be mad at you anymore when you're dead."

The immobilization was suddenly replaced with the pain of the cruciatus curse.

Harry's POV

It had all been okay for once. I was watching as the twins made their grand exit from Hogwarts, when my vision was taken over by a dark room.
