The Dark Lord grew too attached to Bellatrix Black, and to get rid of his feelings, ordered her to marry Rodolphus Lestrange. Now, a few years later, the couple is contentedly expecting their firstborn. That is, until Bellatrix throws herself in front of a curse in order to protect her Master. She loses her unborn child and her husband abandons her in the process. It falls on Voldemort to help her light the fire in her eyes again.
