Delphinus Malfoy, Lucius Malfoy's younger twin sister by exactly 11 minutes and 47 seconds, portrayed herself as a very cheerful, happy, positive girl and for her first five years at Hogwarts it wasn't an act, but then summer of 1976 came and everything went downhill. Delphinus went through acts and feelings she would never wish on anyone, not even her worst enemy. Delphinus' pain only got worse by the days of the year until she finally had broke. As she thought no one could help her she was proven wrong by one singular person at Hogwarts who nagged, annoyed, and disrupted her everyday. But the main question was, was could he help her survive through all the trauma she went through?
Del began to feel the intense desire, need for peace, she felt dirty and used, alone and cold, as if nothing could warm her anymore, she felt numb and needed a release. She realized, that now the only thing that could warm her was her blood seeping from her wrists, it was like the thick crimson gave her that few moments of warmth and emotion, she always healed her cuts, only a few had left the thin pink scar, the other ones weren't deep enough which only encouraged her to push her limits and go deeper. But what Del didn't know was that the release she was craving, the infinite warmth she longed for, the peace that she truly desired, was the one thing she couldn't have, death.
BITTER ARE THE WARS BETWEEN BROTHERS, and damaged is the sister caught between them.
Cassiopeia Black was many things - the sister of boys who've forgotten her, a quidditch captain, a fierce fighter. But, above all, she was a Black and that came before everything else.
The infamous House of Black is intricate and dangerous - hate has always been more common than love. But that all changed between the Black kids. Sirius, Cassiopeia and Regulus broke the cycle of hostility in their family as they grew up. At least, that's what Cassy thought until her older brother Sirius and her twin Regulus started shutting her out.
On top of her family difficulties, Cassy is still a teenager and she must also manage the everyday pressures of being a student at Hogwarts: leading her Quidditch team to victory, maintaining her grades, and sifting through complicated emotions and friendships. However, for many years now a war has been brewing and as it reaches its peak, Cassy needs to decide between doing the right thing and doing the thing that keeps her brothers alive. Loyalty is a double-edged sword because, at the end of the day, the real side she's on is her own.
