Chapter 53 :
At Granger's residence:
"Who brought me to your place?" Narissca asked.
"Albus Dumbeldore" Elizabeth replied.
"Why?"
"Because we trust him, Miss Narissca" Dr William said.
Narissca could not buy that explaination, "Why do you trust him? And why would you keep a complete stranger at your place and provide medication?"
"We are doctors, it's in our nature to save patients. And our daughter is in Hogwarts, we trust Albus Dumbeldore and The Weasley's in the magic world, we owe them for taking care of our beloved daughter." Elizabeth said.
Narissca was confused, Weasely's? And their daughter in Hogwarts, a muggleborn?
"Your daughter is a witch?" she asked
"Yes, she is a witch. " Both the doctor's said in unison and shared a smile remembering their little princess.
"Who is she? And what's her age?" She asked
"Hermione Jean Granger" they said, with pride.
Seconds passed by, Narissca could not speak, her mind was racing rapidly..... Hermione Granger, was the Mudblood her son always talked about, her husband always hated her and her kind. And now, she is at their home, a sick patient.... She was feeling something heavy in her heart..... It was GUILT......
She remembered, how Lucius always beat Draco in his first year, for scoring less than the Mudblood student. How he taught him to despise their kind. How the girl was petrified in the second year, by that evil diary.....
Yes, she felt guilty, if only she had destroyed the diary or kept it away from Lucius.... No muggleborns would have been petrified....
If only she would have taught Draco to respect every kind...
There were children after all, it was magic that chose them, they were capable wizard and witches....The Muggles blood and that of the purebloods are same- All RED, there is no mud in the Muggles blood, if anything that is tainted is the purebloods, who have irrationally tortured muggles and have tainted their blood by murders of innocent beings....
Even though, she never killed anyone, she feels guilty for she neither stopped the torture of muggleborns in her home. How the death eaters killed them slowly by Crucio, and how the dead body was fed to Nagini.....
She is The Lady Malfoy, it's her mansion, but still she couldn't stop that evil monster torturing and ruling her home. She even feels shame to be called a Malfoy now......
Everything has changed, her husband who was once sweet, caring, gentlemen was long gone, in the thirst of power and rank... He not only sold himself, but her soul and body too, to that deadly creature- Voldemort...
How her innocent child, was now a puppet in the hands of the death eaters and the Dark Lord....
Unknowingly, tears were rolling down her cheeks with her heart burning in hot flames...
"Miss Narissca, are you okay?" Elizabeth asked.
"Dear, we should give her a pain killer....Too much talking is not good for her in this condition" Dr.William suggested.
She nodded and turned towards Narissca, "This pain killer will let you relax for a while. We can continue later.."
"I'm so sorry" Narissca whimpered again and again.
Both the Granger's shared a confused look.
"It's my fault... I'm so sorry..." Narissca cried.
"It's not your fault, neither your family's fault, Miss Narissca. Times are tough now, but believe me your family is fighting for a good cause, everything will be fine..." Elizabeth comforted her.
"You don't know my family, they despise your kind Mr and Mrs Granger. Do you know, your daughter was petrified in the second year?? It was because of that stupid evil diary that the chamber's of secret was opened, and all muggleborns were petrified. Do you know, that diary was in my husband's possession? And he sneaked that diary into Ginny Weasely's bag... And that he always hated your daughter for always being the class topper. It's all my husband's fault, that today me and my son are just a puppet in hands of a cruel mad man... You should hate me, for indirectly making your daughter's life miserable all these years...." she ranted..
Hearing her confession, Elizabeth and William were shocked. They only knew that their child was petrified by a giant snake, because she is a Muggleborn. But now knowing that Narissca's husband was involved they felt a pang of hurt and betrayal...
Narissca went into deep slumber, after the pain killer started showing its effect.
Elizabeth and William quietly left the room.
There were many things to be discussed now..____________________________________________
At Malfoy Manor :
All the death eaters were sitter in the drawing room. Voldemort eyed each one of them suspiciously. His eyes landed on the dull and sunken Lucius Malfoy.
His servant, was quiet and dull these days after he killed Narissca Malfoy.
He was quiet suspicious about him, for stealing the Hufflepuff's Cup, but looking at his present condition, he hardly thinks he will be capable of doing such a crime. The man was simply lost in his wife's death. Grief and sadness occupied him. He was as good as a dead man.
His eyes than caught the sight of the ugly wentch Bellatrix who was sitting to his left and fluttering her eyelashes at him. Bellatrix was important to him, she was the most loyal follower and a powerful and manipulative death eater. But her constant flirtation, irritated the Dark Lord to the extent, enough to Crucio her nonstop.
"Now, somebody stole my previous cup from Bellatrix's vault. Only the people at this table know about where my cup was.... So come forward and accept your mistake, I promise the punishment won't be severe." he hissed.
Shock and murmurs errupted around the table. Voldemort watched each one of them curiously... He then saw something strange towards his left...
