Tom Riddles Princess -Book 1-

Nine

" What?! " " You heard me Odette" " Tom please for once can't we have a romantic night together without you ruining it!" I shouted, tears pricking my eyes. " You say you love me for who I am yet you still wish to ignore my goals?" " You said you love me for me, yet your trying to turn me into a murderer while you dream of killing people to be a great wizard!". Tom grabbed my arms tightly " You have a dark side in you Odette, I can feel it" " Let me go" " I will bring that dark side out of you my love, only then can we truly be together as one" " Tom your hurting me!". Tom grabbed my face in his hands " You may not believe it now, you may be scared of me now but you will darken that pure heart of yours. You will be by my side when I become the greatest wizard in the world, I know you'll come back to me because you love me, you belong with me", Tom let me go after giving me a long sweet kiss " Tell no one of this, if you wish to be apart I understand, but I will have you back".

I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, finally collapsing on the top steps of the  last set of stairs. I took my shoes off and threw them aside as I finally let the tears roll down my face as I sobbed. Sirius and Remus came out of the great hall laughing, they looked up at me and stopped. Sirius was the first person by my side as he grabbed my face " Odette what happened? Why are you crying?" He asked me with a worried expression across his face. " She'll come around, was just a scare" Tom said as he stood behind me, I put my head in Sirius' neck as I cried harder. " What did you do to her you prick?" " I simply tried to move our relationship to the next level when she wasn't ready, I didn't do anything but she got scared and began crying". Sirius wrapped his arms around me tight, protectively " Your lucky she needs me right now, next time I see you your dead!" He threatened as Tom touched the top of my head " Don't be stupid, she'll come back to me, she always does" Tom smirked before walking away.

I spent the night with Sirius in his bed, I was too scared to sleep by myself. I know it sounds stupid that I'm crying over such a thing, but Tom has begun to truly scare me. It feels like he's trying to dark me down a dark path, one my mother and father went down when Grindlewal was still around. The next morning I sat on the train next to Sirius and Lily, thankfully the two boys didn't tell the rest under my request but they both swore to me that night that they would protect me in any way they could. After hugging my friends goodbye I met up with my brothers and made our way home. Upon arriving home we washed and dressed into our normal home clothes, my brothers wearing black suits while I wore a black dress. As we sat at the dinner table my father couldn't stop smiling, " It's been seen, by a witch who can see into the future" dad began as we all sat down.

" What has father?" I asked " A new dark lord, one who will be better than the last. He'll be the greatest dark wizard in the world. We will have a new Lord soon". Father always listened to people who could see into the future, but hearing about a new dark lord brought my thoughts to him....could he possibly be the new dark lord? Or was he destined to fail?

Christmas came and went by too quickly, I sat in the great hall picking at my food. " You haven't eaten a thing, even take a bite of that burger" Sirius begged but I put my fork down. " I'm not hungry" I sighed before standing up " I'm going to bed, goodnight guys" I said quickly before leaving. I slowly made my way through the empty halls only to be grabbed and pulled into an empty room, I turned to see Tom and sighed " Leave me alone". " Have you thought about my offer?" " Are you serious? Why would I want to join a dark cult?" " Because together we will be able to rule this world, we will be able to rule all". " Tom please, I can't deal with this right now" " Fine" he said as he grabbed my face " But don't think for a second and this is over, you will be my devoted girl sooner or later" he grinned before letting me go.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thankfully fifth year had ended and it was now time for summer, I sat with my friends in our compartment joking and laughing. Tom had left me alone for the rest of the year but I always caught me looking at me, waiting for my answer to join him. I had met up with my friends a lot over the summer, we had gone camping, sleepovers, trips to the beach it was an amazing summer.
~~~~~~

I sat in the great hall of my sixth year, I had a strong feeling that this would be my year. My friends and I were closer than ever and I was a straight A student, nothing could possibly ruin this year. The first class of the year was potions, Professor Slughorn smiled at Lily and I before guiding us to our table, soon we were joined by Snape and Riddle, both of whom we haven't spoken to since last year. The day had flew by and I sat on my bed, opening my potions book to start the homework when a note slipped out. It read
Meet me in the courtyard at six
We need to talk
Tom.

I sighed before excusing myself and going to the courtyard, I sighed before walking over to Tom. " What did you want to see me for?" I asked. Tom stood up and smashed his lips against mine before pulling away " I've missed that feeling" he smiled as he rested his forehead against mine. " What is it you needed to talk to me about Riddle?" " Riddle?" He smirked " Can't a man miss his girlfriend?" " We aren't together anymore Tom, you made sure of that last year" " Did I now? I don't remember breaking up with you, nor you with me" " We broke up the moment you told me about your plan, and wanting me to kill for you". Riddle laughed " That's because you will, I've seen it. I was told of a phropecy that involved myself and of you" " What? What phropecy?" " Don't worry darling you weren't named but it stated that a young pureblood from a dark family of Grindlewal supporters would be my bride and help me bring chaos and misery on the world. And that my dear, is you".
