The Lovegood Vampire [HP Fanfiction] [EDITING]

Chapter 69- Recruitment

I found myself on the edge of a large lake, north of Scotland. I'd just finished reading an article on the daily prophet and I know instantly that it was time to recruit myself. I took out a piece of parchment mad a quill, writing down a letter to the dark lord.
Dark Lord,
I thank you bitterly for the Christmas gift you gave me. I wish to make a proposition. I will take my grandmother's place by your side but I do not wish to make too much of appearances. I will, however tell you all you need to know and follow your every command. That is my proposition .
Regards,
Head Vampire; Cassentina-Rose Lovegood
I scribbled down my last initials and attached the letter to a raven and watched it fly off, standing up and walking to the nearest muggle village to hunt.

I spotted a stray drunk muggle and followed him until I clasped him from behind, wiping his memory and watching his life flash before his eyes. I burnt the body in a nearby bonfire and aparated to a quiet place in the country. There were a murder of crows near the embers of a bushfire and I walked over, seeing what was there. I saw the corpse of a brumby with flesh being rotted with crows eating away its decayed body. I smiled and walked away to where I saw a graveyard for muggles. I smiled and looked down the rows for someone who I could identify, but what I found shocked me.

On the south side of the gravestones was the initials Pandora Lovegood. Mother of two girls; Luna and Cassentina-Rose Lovegood. Wife of Xenophilius Lovegood and daughter of Pandora Lovegood. Rest in Peace.
I let a tear fall down my face as I crouched down to where she was buried and sniffled wet tears.
"I'm sorry mother" I sobbed, crying on her grave. "I couldn't control it. Please forgive me" I finished. I took out my wand and spoke orchideous, making a wreath of roses appear at the grave. I stood up and wiped away my tears with water from a nearby well. I aparated to another place closer to London.

I sat down under an oak tree and opened the daily prophet once more and saw the new minister of magic; Rufus Scrimgeour. I smirked, knowing his little secret. He was a vampire. I recognised it as his eyes were a pale yellow and he had a sour face. I watched as a raven with a piece of parchment flew towards me. I closed my magazine and unattached the letter off the crow, rolling it open.
Cassentina-Rose Lovegood. What a pretty name for such a dark person. It's a shame your grandmother isn't here to congratulate you. You remind me of her, you know. Pure evil and a desire to torture others fading happiness. I would proudly accept your proposition and I wish you to be recruited on October 20th at Malfoy Manor. Your recruitment won't be a big appearance as you asked but a few people who you should recognise will be attending some including; Bellatrix Lestrange, Yaxley, Severus Snape, Fenir Grayback and the Malfoys. Draco will be recruited as of the same time as of you. I know of your extraordinary abilities and I hope you will please me in working for the dark side,
Dark Lord.
I smiled and burnt the letter in my hand, walking away.

For the last few weeks, I was happy about my decision but had thought about what Draco would think of me. He wa the only person who I could relate to, well not really but I felt something for him, but his future was already taken by another girl.

The day finally came and I found myself on the doorstep of Malfoy Manor. I knocked on the door and it opened to reveal Bellatrix Leastrange. She looked at me and smiled.
"I could see this day coming" she spoke, smiling. I nodded and followed her down the deep, dark corridor.
"I like you better without your glamour on. You look more torturous" She spoke. I smiled.
"Torturous?" I spoke. "I wouldn't of ever thought" I finished and she knocked in the door, letting me walk into the room. I saw lord Voldemort in the centre of the table and a few faces in which I recognised. I smiled and took off my hood, smiling.
"Welcome. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance" He spoke, looking at me. "Everyone. This is one of our newest members to the dark side. I'd please you to meet Cassentina-Rose, the Head Vampire" he spoke. I smiled and walked forward, seeing the shocked faces of some death eaters, pleased of the others. I glanced at Snape and he smirked at me. Voldemort took out his wand and I pulled up the sleeve of my left arm, watching the dark mark appear. I was seated next to Bellatrix and beside Lord Voldemort on the far left side of the table afterwards, admiring the magnificent print of the skull and the snake. I placed my hoody back on my head and pulled my sleeve back down, watching as Draco walked in. I could see fear in his eyes. I knew this was the decision he didn't want to make. He walked down the rows of chairs opposite me and he looked fearfully at Lord Voldemort. He laid eyes on me and I could see the pain in his eyes as the dark Mark was created on his left forearm. He was seated in between to Bellatrix and I, pulling down his sleeve. Bellatrix smiled.
"I'm soo proud of you, Draco" she spoke. He nodded and looked at me.
"Why didn't you tell me?" He spoke. I glanced at him.
"I tried to, I really did. But I didn't truly trust you to keep it a secret" I spoke. He nodded.
"And you knew all along about this day." He spoke. I nodded.
"It's one of my abilities. I have every power to do with the mind. As well as the usual vampire abilities and the ability to heal immediately." I spoke. He nodded and I found Draco and I alone in the room once the meeting was adjured with Lord Voldemort.

"Cassentina, Draco. I have an mission for you to do to prove your allegiance. Will you accept?"
Draco nodded. I looked at him.
"I wish to remain away from Hogwarts. My allegiance is in high standard and I look almost two years younger than I'm suppose to be. I will though inform you in another job perhaps?" I spoke. He nodded.
"Draco. I will explain it to you later after I talk to Cassentina." Just Tina. I spoke into his mind. He grimaced.
"You speak to me formally." He snapped. I smirked.
"You envy my ability?" I asked. He looked at me, horrified.
"Do not mistaken the power of the dark lord" he spat, horrified. I smiled.
"Powerful? Ok." I spoke.
"Would you perhaps show me your abilities? May I ask" he asked. I smiled.
"Yes, my lord" I spoke. "But I'll need someone to test it on" I spoke. He nodded.
"Wormtail?" He yelled. A chubby scared looking man walked in.
"Yes, my lord?" He spoke.
"Come here!" Voldemort ordered. Wormtail walked over and looked at me, fearfully.
"I'm waiting?" He spoke, ushering me to show him. I looked into wormtail's mind, seeing that he was friends with Harry Potter's father and Reamus, but betrayed them due to fear. I projected the memories into lord Voldemort's mind. I stopped and stared at him, controlling his mind, making him bow to the dark lord. Then I wiped his memory blank and returned it back again. Next I looked at lord Voldemort.
"All powers of the mind." I spoke. He nodded and I summoned a book, looking him in his eyes. I made us appear at a dark room painted in blood.
"What extraordinary talent." He spoke. I smiled and returned everything back to normal, dismissing Wormtail. He smirked. I took out a dagger from my cape and pierced my hand, watching it heal up before blood could ooze out of it. I placed the dagger back into my pocket and looked at him.
"Now you know. Are you impressed?" I sneered. He nodded. I smiled.
"What do you wish me to do?" I asked. He smiled.
"I wish for you to tell me what you know about Harry Potter's travels?"
"Yes, my lord" I spoke.
