"Ahh Draco, took you long enough. I thought you had changed your mind", his low, cold voice could send shivers down anyone's spine.

"My Lord, I shall never be one of the traitors. You have my word", Draco Malfoy bowed.

"Such a proud moment it would have been for Lucius"

Anger bubbled inside Draco's chest at the mention of his father's name, but he knew that Voldemort was just trying to test him so he kept his mind clear and bowed once more and said,

"Perhaps, my Lord"

His snake-like eyes bore into Draco's and it took him every bit of himself to keep his mind clear.

He was skilled at occulmency as he was taught by his Aunt Bellatrix Lestrange.

"So Draco, tell me where have you been all this time?"

"My Lord, as Zabini, Parkinson, Greengrass and Nott may have already told you, I was looking for something to prove myself to you. Something with which I could erase my mistake and make it up to you", he said indifferently.

"AH yes they mentioned. So tell me young Malfoy, did you find something interesting? "

"Yes, my Lord. Potter is on the run. He's currently in hiding and is too much of a coward to face you"

"And may I ask, where did you get this information from?"

"Of course, my Lord, I have an old friend who went to Hogwarts for 7th year. He informed me that Potter and his cronies-" Draco quickly glanced around to see if anyone's facial expression gave away but found none. "-did not go back to Hogwarts or the Order for that matter. And nobody is in contact with him. This is what they all are saying my Lord, Potter is a coward and has run away"

"Very well, Draco. You may join us once again"

Draco felt like spitting on his face. He was standing in Malfoy Manor, his house, and welcoming him like as if he was the guest. Hate shot through every inch of his body and he quietly made his way towards his bedroom.

When he was about to enter, Fenrir Greyback, the werewolf came and told him that this room was out of bounds and that nobody, nobody was allowed to enter except for a house elf and a very few death eaters.

Draco then went to his parents room and sighed with relief seeing it empty.

The room smelled like his mother. Draco closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. "I will avenge your deaths, mother, father"

And with that, he lay on the bed thinking about what he'd gotten himself into.

"So mum what you're trying to say is that he talked to you last night about leaving ?"

"I'm afraid he did, Tonks. I just didn't take him seriously. He's just a boy. What will Cissa think of me", she cried.

"Andy, it wasn't your fault. He'll be fine. Draco is one of the most powerful wizards I've ever met", Remus Lupin said.

"We're leaving", said Harry, motioning towards Ron and himself.

"What do you mean boy?", Moody asked.

"Listen I know you're all trying to protect me but trust me, it won't be over until and unless I finish the task that Dumbledore gave me. He asked me not to tell anyone so please don't even bother asking. I can't risk anymore lives for me. First Hermione and now Draco. ", he sighed. "Please don't stop me now", he pleaded.

Andromeda got up and hugged Harry and Ron. "Stay safe you both", she whispered through her tears.
