[HP] Dark Lord's pet

Voldemort sat on the only chair in the hall, with a circle of shivering Death Eaters in black robes kneeling at his feet.

"Lucius?"

Lucius Malfoy, who was named, trembled all over his body, and he lowered his knees even lower: "Master... master... the prophecy ball was broken, and when Potter went up the steps..."

It was Bellatrix who spoke out first, and she stared at Lucius in horror: "You're lying! Master! Malfoy is lying, he lied to you! It was still in Potter's hand when I left Li! That's his excuse..."

Lucius froze for a moment, straightened up and looked at her coldly, with disgust flashing in his eyes, he said quickly: "It was broken, when you were dueling with Sirius, a spell missed..."

Bellatrix lost all blood on her face, she was trembling all over, and kept shaking her head: "It's not true, it's not true...Master, master! I did my best, I did my best—don't punish me -"

She crawled towards Voldemort on her knees - she was the closest to Voldemort, she kept begging for mercy, kissing his robes, thinking he would forgive her.

The imaginary punishment did not come down, Voldemort asked coldly: "Where's Sirius?"

No one dared to speak, Bellatrix's body seemed to be petrified.

"Bella, where's Sirius?"

Bellatrix was crying, her tears had flowed all over her face, and everyone could see her panic and anxiety: "He... fell into the curtain, master..."

"Master, Bella's Killing Curse hit him before he fell into the veil!" Antonin Dolohov suddenly yelled: "And that spell that made Harry Potter fall The curse that fell, was fired by Malfoy, I saw it!"

"He's lying! Master, I swear I didn't cast the spell!" Lucius retorted angrily, "This is Dolohov's frame!"

Lucius glared at Dolohov fiercely, did he want to take this opportunity to tear Malfoy and Lestrange off the horse together?Stop dreaming!

"Enough!" Voldemort stood up, looked at the Death Eaters gnawing at his feet, and narrowed his eyes cruelly: "... so many months of preparation, so many months of hard work... my food Dead Apostles, another failure...you have deprived me of a clue to something precious, which I may have lost forever..."

Furious, he punished them one by one, listening to them scream and watching them writhe.

Finally, when Bellatrix arrived, he pinched her jaw, stared into her eyes, and whispered: "Bella, how much Lord Voldemort trusts you, and he entrusts the most precious thing to you for safekeeping." , you used to never let him down, you always completed every task excellently, but now..."

"Master!" Bellatrix was ashamed with tears streaming down her face, she blamed herself very much: "You punish me, I didn't fulfill your entrustment, I failed, you punish me, but please don't Give up on me, don't lose your trust in me..."

"How else should I trust you? I have told you to bring Sirius alive to me. I have been discussing a plan for several months, just to lure him out of his kennel. But you—— Cousin, you have left your master behind—"

Voldemort swung his arm, and Bellatrix fell limply on the ground, weeping uncontrollably.As if losing his trust hurt her more than getting a hundred Cruciatus.

Lucius was almost stuck to the ground, and only then did he understand why the Dark Lord didn't punish him extra.The prophecy ball was nothing compared to the task he gave to Bellatrix, and he panicked. Did the Dark Lord think less of Malfoy because of that diary?

"Bella, go—bring it to me, I need to find a suitable place for it," said Voldemort, looking at Bella.

The meaning of these words made Bellatrix feel as if she had been struck by lightning. Her face was wet, and she threw herself at Voldemort's feet unwillingly and desperately: "Master...Master, I beg you, give me one more chance, I will do it." Good everything you ordered, don't treat me like this!"

Voldemort kicked her away and gave her Cruciatus, but she felt it was a reward and enjoyed it painfully.

"I don't want to repeat it a second time, Bella," said Voldemort grimly.

Bella lost all hope and fell limp on the ground again.

Voldemort sat back in his chair again: "The idiots of the Ministry of Magic already know that I am resurrected, and our advantage hidden in the shadows is about to disappear. But it doesn't matter, it's time, tell our friends, the war is about to begin-we will win! "

"Yes! Master!" The kneeling Death Eaters said excitedly in unison.

The Death Eaters disappeared in a blink of an eye. Voldemort sat on the chair, his eyes flickering: the small piece of soul in the ring has not yet been fused, and he already feels that his reason is gradually returning, his emotions are under some control, and his strength is also improving. promote.So what if it is the first diary made?How much will that piece of soul allow him to recover?

Voldemort turned the black stone ring of invisible material in his hand, and thought about it.

He stood up and prepared to go back to Star Manor, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it, there were more important things...

"The situation in England is getting worse." Joe looked at the foggy sky and frowned. "I can't even count how many dementors there are. They are constantly multiplying."

Dementors, Olivia frowned in disgust thinking of them.

"We are going back to China tomorrow, Olivia. If you want, you can go back with me. The environment in England is really not conducive to your recovery." Qiao looked worriedly at Olivia's still white face, the most dangerous time has passed , but the magic power in her body is barely balanced, and if she is a little sloppy, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Olivia shook her head and touched Thea's hair sitting next to her: "Whether it's for the potion supplement or for Al, I can't get away, I'm deeply involved, Joe."

She sighed, and then thought of something: "You didn't even see Al this time, he knows, it must be very regrettable——"

"I want to stay."

"Huh?" Olivia's eyes widened in surprise. It was Thea, she said she wanted to stay?Did she hear correctly?

"I want to stay," she repeated.

With complex eyes, Qiao asked her gently: "Are you sure? Thea?"

Thea glanced at Olivia and nodded.

Olivia and Joe looked at each other with moist eyes. Thea was slowly coming out, wasn't she?She hugged Thea and solemnly promised Joe: "I will protect her with all my strength, Joe, I will never let Joe suffer any harm, I swear."

Joe nodded: "Of course I believe you, Olivia, it's just Thea, can you keep in touch often? Don't forget Dad."

Thea nodded obediently, Olivia's excited face was a little rosy, and she said happily: "I'll install a phone for Star Manor later, we can make international calls and chat every day!"

They were discussing the rise, when Abby suddenly appeared with a snap and bowed deeply to Olivia: "Master, the Ministry of Magic is visiting."

Olivia raised her eyebrows in surprise, Ministry of Magic?

"Please." Olivia motioned to Abi, and after a while, a team of five people appeared in the living room.

Olivia only knew two of them, Arthur Weasley with the red hair, and Alastor Moody with a blue eye circling wildly in the living room.Olivia remembered him, former... Ministry of Magic Auror, she stared at Moody and raised her voice: "Ministry of Magic?"

Arthur Weasley, who was clearly the leader, knew what she meant and blushed and wanted to say something, but Olivia cut him off.

"Which law have I broken that requires the Ministry of Magic to search Star Manor?"

Moody said in a vicious voice: "Because of your special relationship with the mysterious man, we have reason to suspect that he is hiding in Star Manor—"

Olivia almost laughed, and she did: "I'm not mistaken, is the Order of the Phoenix so naive? Do you think the Dark Lord will stay here for you to search?"

The redness that had just subsided on Arthur Weasley's face spread again, as did the others, he cleared his throat, and bowed politely: "Miss Sta, Dumbledore asked me to tell him greeting."

Olivia restrained her smile, and she snorted: "You have also seen that I am in poor health, so I can only let the house elf take you there. Also, don't mess with things, my experimental data is very precious, so don't offend me." My guests, you don't want to see me throw a fit over this, do you?"

The search lasted for a long time - from this we can see how carefully they searched.

But Olivia knew that their efforts would be in vain, unless Dumbledore personally searched so carefully, it would be possible to find the black magic books in her hidden space that were evil enough to scare Aurors, let alone the traces of Voldemort No, he never had any trace at Star Manor.

"Did you expect the Dark Lord to turn into some kind of dark magic item that you could search out?" Olivia asked Arthur Weasley, who was sitting beside him anxiously.

He blushed again—part of his job in the past had been searching for dark magic items in pure-blood families, and he wasn't sure if Olivia was mocking him.

"About Dumbledore's greeting, he hopes to get your reply." He coughed twice, glanced at Joe and Thea who had been silent, and said in a low voice.

Olivia gave him a strange look, what did she say, as if she and Dumbledore were on the same team?

She raised her eyebrows: "I'm sick, and I have to entertain guests again. I haven't seen other people for a long time. I don't know anything. If he wants to hear this, tell him."

Arthur nodded. After a while, several other people came to the living room one after another. When Arthur looked over, they all shook their heads.

He turned to Olivia and said politely, "Sorry for the trouble, Miss Sta, I wish you a speedy recovery."

"Thank you." Olivia said coldly, motioning for Abby to send them out.

"What do you mean by Dumbledore? He confused me." Olivia looked at Joe in confusion.

"Perhaps this is the wisdom of the elders." Joe said otherwise.

Olivia thought about it.
