Tom's pov
It's six in the morning, I'm staring out of the window of the train Malfoy sitting in front of me knocked out I'm on my way to murder Cordelia's parents... yeah I know this doesn't sound lovely killing my "girlfriends" parents but this is the only way she will obey me I have to put that little brat in her place she thinks she has a say so in my bloody cult she's a death eater she's supposed to do as I say yet she says "no" to my face just because we're dating so pathetic I hate women they're so dramatic and think they have any say in a mans life they're just a distraction I don't need distractions I need power, not a woman just the thought makes me roll my eyes I can't believe she thinks I love her what a foolish girl I cannot love nor do I intend to such a waste of time the train comes to a stop I stand and shake Malfoy awake "we're here." I say and grab my bag walking out of the train soon Malfoy runs after me "where are we going?" He asks rubbing his eyes
"To a hotel, I have to do some research first," I say and walk to the nearest hotel we can find
Once we got to the hotel I open my bag and grab my folders and start to do my research I already know all the basic things about Cordelia her parents are privileged purebloods and her brother was an Auror who died from a dark wizard.. what a pathetic Auror Malfoy is out like a light how much can he sleep I roll my eyes and put on my coat walking out of the hotel I find an alley I grab Salazar's locket and mutter the location where I will apparate to I soon appear in front of the large gates of the black manor I push the gate open and make my way towards the mansion
I put on my hood and pull my wand out knocking on the door a house-elf opens the door
"Hello sir" he speaks slightly afraid
I kick him he flies into a wall I walk in Cordelia's mother runs down the staircase "who are you!" She yells pointing her wand at me I laugh and mutter crucio and she falls to her knees in pain and cries out for me to stop I laugh at her pain her husband runs down the stairs he looks at me in shock
"GEN!" He yells pulling out his wand muttering a healing charm trying to help her pain it doesn't work.
"You see Arcturus your daughter won't obey the great Lord Voldemort so you will pay instead of her" I say and walk close to him
"Where is Cordelia what have you done to her!" He yells pointing his wand at me I look at the wand and it flys into my hand I smirk at the terrified man
"She's fine. I can't say the same for you" I strug
"What do you want? Money? Jewels?" He says I shake my head stupid humans
"I don't want bloody money!" I'm getting frustrated
"I'll do anything please don't do this" he begs
"I don't like when people tell me what to do" I take off my hood revealing my face
"Tom?!" His eyes widen "why are you doing this"
"To teach Cordelia a lesson."
"Avada Kedavra" I point the wand to the man red sparks fly out of my wand into the man his screams echo through the house his lifeless body lays on the floor I look at his wife tears cover her face she's shaking with fear I bend down to her and touch her face with a frown "sorry Genevieve," I say and take away her memory I can't have her tell the authorities I did it obviously after I'm done with my mission I go back to the hotel and smirk satisfied with my day
Cordelia's pov
I wake up and rub my eyes and look at the clock it's 8 o'clock I rush to get ready for my day I miss breakfast so I head to potions and sit next to aurora Lovegood mixing a vibrant green potion
"What's that?" I ask opening my book
"The draught of peace" aurora smiles
"Oh that's a very difficult potion" I frown because I know I'm going to fail it
"Not really," she says in her very calm voice she's always so calm does she normally drink the draught of peace I laugh at my joke and chop up the ingredients for my potion
"So where's tom?" She askes
"He went with abraxas back to his home" I reply she nods
My eyes flicker to Walburga giggling to something Lestrange said I shake my head and pay attention to this potion
After an hour of perfecting it I actually didn't do as bad as I thought but auroras was perfect I envy her in a good way after classes I head to dinner I barely touch my food I'm so stressed out I don't even sleep from my nightmares and Tom has been so distant and weird after dinner I sneak into the library Mrs. Clearwater is knocked out at her desk snoring and all. I grab any book that looks interesting and sit and read
~~~~~~~~
I'm awake by Walburga at six in the morning "Cora" she sobs I open my eyes in shock at a crying Walburga
"What's wrong?" I sit up looking around the dark room Edith and Penelope are sleeping peacefully.
"Yo-your father" she sobs louder my eyes widen
"What happened!" I stand up pacing
"He's... dead I'm sorry" she hands me a newspaper with a picture of my father reading "Arcturus Black has been murdered by Grindelwald he strikes once again!" My mouth falls open and my eyes widen this can't be real there is no way this is possible not my father no the anxiety increases tears fall down my eyes I drop the paper to the floor and run out of the room down the stairs I bump into Tom he looks at me
"Cora I heard what happened i-" I don't want to hear his pity I run out of the common room to the owlery I grab a paper and ink and quill and write a letter as fast and messy as i can
"Mother, please tell me this isn't true and this is fake news" I tie the letter on an Owl and send him away I rub my eyes and sit on the floor an owl sits next to me and hoots my eyes blur from all the tears I cannot see anything my heart hurts I don't want to believe this
I rush out of the owlery I decided to go home I won't rely on an owl I go back to my dorm and pack clothes rushing out of the castle to the Hogwarts express I get on it in 2 hours I'll be home I open my bag and light up a cigarette to calm my nerves after of me overthinking everything I'm in front of my house I run into the house
"Mother!" I yell the house-elf appears with a bandage around his arm
"Ms. Cordelia madam Genevieve is in her bedroom mourning," he says wiping a tear from his wrinkled face I choke
"Mourning?" The tears fall it's really true then he's dead
"Your father is dead ms" he walks back into the kitchen I run upstairs to my mother's room I twist the handle open too a empty room i look towards the balcony and see her leaning over the rail
"Mom!" I rush to her she looks at me mascara running all over her face from crying
"Cordelia" she whispers
I can't help but cry
She looks at me and walks back into her room sitting on her bed
"Leave I don't want to see you" she wipes her tears away
"Mom I need you" I cry harder
"No you don't get out" she says harshly
She takes a drink from a bottle of whiskey I stare at her
I walk out of her room and run to my old room slamming the door shut and crying until I can't anymore until I feel empty inside hours past days past I just sit on floor of my bedroom and stare at the dark walls tears dried on my face I pull the bottle of wine next to me and drink What's left of it I miss my father I will get revenge on Grindelwald I will kill him.. someone knocks at my door
"GO AWAY!" I yell my voice is raspy
The door opens and I see a sad looking walburga she rushes next to be on the floor and wraps her arms around me crying
"I'm so sorry Cora" she sobs so do I
