[HP] just lover

This is the first time Vanessa has used the Pensieve.

One after another memories that did not belong to her unfolded in front of her eyes, and Vanessa saw the true face of the Dark Lord for the first time.

His terrifying appearance made her tremble all over. Although Lucius was facing him, she seemed to feel the uncomfortable and terrifying fear. She struggled to get up, but Lucius pressed her, Force her to read everything.

After Voldemort's figure disappeared, the following content was not so difficult to accept. Vanessa gave up struggling a little bit. She heard the conversation between Parkinson and Lucius clearly, and also explained Lucius as Roxie. She had a thorough understanding of the safe haven she had prepared, and when all her memories were finally over and she could stand up straight, she actually didn't want to do that.

She held both ends of the Pensieve tightly as if avoiding, not wanting to raise her head to face Lucius, Lucius did not allow her to escape at all, grabbed her messy blond hair and pulled her up, Vanessa only felt a headache Very quickly, she looked at Lucius with red eyes, and Lucius whispered softly: "Have you finished watching? How do you feel now? Of course, if Miss Wilson still doesn't believe it, then take out your wand and take a picture Is it God's Mind? No, it doesn't matter, I'll teach you, I swear on the future of the Malfoy family, I will never hide my memories, I will show you all, all, all of them. Including those Unbearable plans, experiences, and feelings that I want to hide as much as possible."

Vanessa had never seen Lucius in such a desperate and dangerous manner. She didn't want to see the legendary Dark Lord again. Just the memory just now made her break out in a cold sweat. She didn't even know that Lu Xius How did Hughes face the other party calmly, lie while looking straight into his eyes, and endure that kind of intensity of Legilimency.

"It seems you believe it."

Lucius slowly loosened Vanessa's hair, staring at her flickering eyes, hesitant look, he suddenly frowned, then raised the corners of his mouth, raised his chin slightly, looked at her with lowered eyes, and said meaningfully : "I don't intend to shirk my responsibility. Mrs. Wilson's death is also due to my unfavorable care. I have been too busy recently to check the letters between you and her. If I read them in time, I can prevent her from leaving To prevent this tragedy from happening.” When he said this, he even showed a smile, pointed his wand at his own chest and said, “So, this is indeed my responsibility, isn’t it? Just hate me, I caused the death Mrs. Wilson, it's all my fault, I'll bear it."

Lucius wasn't speaking in anger.

He just suddenly realized that his insistence on explaining can clear up the grievances, but that probably made Vanessa think that Roxy died because of her.If she hadn't insisted on getting Roxie out of his house, Roxie would have been safe there and wouldn't have died at all.

When Lucius thought of this, he stopped explaining to himself, and said, "It's all because of me. I shouldn't have arranged for you to live in the house under Malfoy's name, and I shouldn't have tolerated Mrs. Wilson holding a banquet there." , to socialize. I guessed that she would announce something to the outside world, but she didn't eliminate the influence in time, so she got involved with me and was targeted by Parkinson. This is all my fault, and it was my carelessness that caused all this , think about how to punish me."

He took a step closer to Vanessa and said to her: "The Cruciatus Curse, can you use it? You can use that spell on me. I'm sorry I can't pay for Mrs. Wilson. I have a lot of things to do, so I can't." Die. But you can use the Cruciatus Curse an unlimited number of times, and I won't fight back, start now."

Vanessa was confused by Lucius' sudden change, she was not a fool, after reading those memories, combined with the words of Voldemort and Parkinson, she could know why Roxie died.

As for Lucius who changed the subject later and began to put the responsibility on him... well, he really can't stay out of the matter completely, as he said, if he hadn't arranged for Roxy to live with her under the name of the Malfoy family In his house, there will be no follow-up troubles, but his mistakes are nothing more than that. The banquet is organized by Roxie herself, the news is released by Roxie herself, and the words are said by herself. Responsibility requires her take responsibility.

If she keeps a low profile, doesn't hold banquets, doesn't socialize, doesn't talk nonsense, and just acts as a quiet tenant, just such a relationship with the Malfoy family won't attract Parkinson's attention at all.

After all, Roxie paid the bill for her actions. Vanessa stood there, ashamed of her recklessness. Holding her wand, she took a step back, looked at Lucius, and said after a long while: "This It has nothing to do with you. The Dark Lord sent someone to kill her, you never thought of harming her, you have been protecting her, even in the face of the Dark Lord, you are still fighting for a way out for the other surviving members of the Wilson family..." She Knowing that it was for her, she lowered her eyes and pursed her lips tightly, "Sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't be so irrational and put all the responsibility on you, the person who killed her in the end is myself, if I didn't try to distance myself from you, I didn't write her to move back, and it wouldn't happen."

In this matter, each of them was at fault, Roxie was at fault, Vanessa was at fault, Lucius was at fault, but the one who made the biggest mistake was definitely not Lucius.Taking a step back, even if Lucius let them live in the house under the name of the Malfoy family in the first place, it was Vanessa who provoked him at school first. If she didn't send the bottle of Felicia, if six Nothing happened in that abandoned classroom in the first grade, so everything today will be completely rewritten.

The instigator was Vanessa herself.

She miscalculated the situation and directly led to the tragic death of her biological mother. She still had the face to ask Lucius for his punishment. She was crazy.

"It's all because of me."

Vanessa finished speaking tremblingly, turned around and wanted to leave, but Lucius directly grabbed her, stared at her and said, "Where are you going?"

Vanessa took a breath and said softly, "Leave here, go home, and prepare for the funeral."

Very well, this sounded calm, but Lucius knew that she didn't think that way at all.

"You want revenge." Lucius said firmly, "I understand you, Vanessa, don't try to lie to me, you want revenge, although you didn't show it at all, but don't forget, we are all Slater Forest."

Vanessa looked at Lucius in surprise, and subconsciously denied, "I didn't..."

"You have." Lucius said sharply, "You want to take revenge on the Duke of Darkness, stop denying it."

Vanessa fell silent.

Yes, her mistake killed her mother, but the person who killed her mother was sent by the Dark Lord, and the culprit was that lunatic. Even if she wanted to feel guilty for the rest of her life, she didn't intend to let that lunatic go.

"Don't be silly, Vanessa, who do you think you are." Lucius said disdainfully, "Even I can't compete with him, what do you think you can do to him?"

Vanessa pursed her lips and said, "I can wait. I'm only a teenager, and I have a lot of time. I can wait for a suitable opportunity, or wait until the day he self-destructs."

Lucius fell silent, he stood there without saying a word, but Vanessa didn't leave in a hurry.

She was quiet for a while, hundreds of thoughts flashed through her mind.

It's all about how to successfully take revenge and defeat the Dark Lord.

She looked at Lucius suddenly, she couldn't do many things, but he could.

"What about you?" Soon, she said, "Now, do you still think that following him will have good results? He has no humanity at all. Even if you give everything for him, he will only take it for granted." She grabbed Lucius' hand, and Lucius tried to pull it back, but failed.

"You can't help the evil one anymore, Lucius." Vanessa said calmly, "I met Dumbledore in St. Mungo's a few days ago. He has never given up on dealing with the Dark Lord. He will succeed sooner or later. Dumbledore. What will you do when the Dark Lord falls? You must make a choice."

What Vanessa said is also the question that Lucius has been thinking about recently.

But joining the Death Eaters is not the same as taking a job somewhere, you can't just hand the Dark Lord a letter of resignation.

The Duke of Darkness is becoming more radical every year. He used to be rational and powerful, and made all the pure-blood nobles see hope for the future, enough to compete with Dumbledore.But now he has changed beyond recognition, it is impossible for Lucius not to think of a way out for himself.

Lucius knew it without Vanessa saying it.

This matter was like a stone, and he was always pressed in his heart. He was so stressed that he couldn't breathe, but there was no one to talk about.

Vanessa emphasized again and again, which made Lucius vent all the entanglement and anger in recent days.

He struggled to free her hand, and said excitedly, "Let the Dark Lord go to hell!"

He ripped off the sleeves of his shirt roughly, and the cuff buttons fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Vanessa didn't have time to take care of that, her eyes were full of the hideous and terrifying Dark Mark on Lucius' right arm.

"Do you think this mark is worth much to me?" Lucius called the lord by name, "Voldemort has become a complete lunatic, he can no longer bring any benefits to the Malfoy family, All it can bring is boundless and endless fear." He paused every word, "Voldemort is with me now, and he is worthless at all!"

Vanessa was stunned. Although he said the answer she wanted, she didn't expect him to be so excited and express it in such extreme words.

She immediately went up to cover Lucius' mouth and said, "Enough! Stop talking! Do you want to die!"

With red eyes, Lucius pulled away her hand covering his mouth, stared at her and said, "Don't you just want me to die? You can do what you want after I die, and you can talk to Sirius Blake is together without burden!"

Lucius was really out of anger.

After all the suppressed emotions erupted, he was at a loss for a moment.

He stood by the desk and needed to hold the desk to stabilize his body.

He leaned there, his platinum-blond hair tied behind his shoulders with a silver-green headband, his gray-blue eyes slowly looked at Vanessa, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "If you go to see the Duke of Darkness now, stand In front of him, let him see your memory, then I will die."

...This is almost a joke.

But Vanessa couldn't laugh.

She stood there with a complicated expression and said: "I can't go, and I can't go. I'm afraid I'll be killed by his men before I see him."

Lucius turned his head and remained silent. Vanessa knew that he basically had no secrets with her. He put all the emotions that could lead to death and family destruction in front of her, which was equivalent to sending his throat to her. At hand, if she wanted to, she could strangle him.

But she won't do that.

Vanessa thought for a while, and finally said to him: "Forget about me, otherwise, if I get caught one day, you will really be finished. I don't have your kind of ability, I can bear it." Hold the Legilimency of the Dark Lord."

Lucius said with a pale face, "I won't use that kind of magic on you, and there's no need for it." He gradually regained his composure, regained his former nobility, and whispered, "You can keep those memories, I I also want to watch it occasionally, to remind myself."

Vanessa smiled and said, "Are you using my brain as your back garden? Do you still want to look at it anytime, anywhere?"

Lucius said without emotion: "To me, your brain is no different from the back garden."

Vanessa pursed her lips and said, "I'm not the heir of a big family, and I don't understand your spells to resist Legilimency. I'm just an ordinary person. You'd better be cautious and do what I say. I don't want one day, Then kill anyone because of yourself."

One Roxy is enough, if there is another one, if that person is Lucius, Vanessa can't guarantee whether she can stay awake.

A long silence spread, and when she felt that Lucius had made a decision and would forget about her, Lucius turned around, walked to her side, and said to her: "It is used to resist the camera. What the gods read is Occlumency."

Vanessa frowned, looking at him inexplicably.

"You're not a stupid student, I think you should be able to learn it soon." Lucius spoke calmly, without any signs of being so excited that he lost his mind just now. He was glad that he was in his own study in Malfoy Manor He also knew that if he was not here, he would not have lost control just now. He said to Vanessa in a restrained tone, "I can't go out too much recently, and I need to avoid suspicion. You can only come here to study. I will give Your door key can go directly to my study, and no one can enter here except me. I believe you will not refuse, even if it is not for me, you should have other secrets that you don't want others to know. "

Vanessa was silent for a long time before she said: "This is too troublesome and a waste of time, a matter that can be solved by forgetting everything, I can even extract that memory and give it to you for preservation, that's fine..."

Vanessa was interrupted by Lucius before she finished speaking.

"You remember." Lucius stared at her, and said in an uncompromising tone, "I will never use harmful spells on you, even if it is to forget everything, and memory extraction. That part Memory, I need you to keep it, you can't forget it, I don't want what I'm going to do in the future to look weird to you."

Vanessa was inexplicably silent for a while: "What are you going to do?"

Lucius turned around, went to the bookshelf and found a very inconspicuous black diary.

"This is something that the Duke of Darkness gave me to keep." Lucius stared at the diary and said, "When he trusted me the most."

Vanessa looked at the diary: "Diary? Why did he give you this kind of thing?"

Lucius walked up to her and handed her the diary. Vanessa took it and just held it in her hand. Before she opened it, she felt a strong black magic aura.

She quickly threw the diary to Lucius, and Lucius snorted slightly with her frightened look.

"You are so timid and want to seek revenge from the Duke of Darkness, what should I say about you."

Vanessa ignored this sentence and said directly: "That thing is evil, I have never felt such a powerful black magic breath, and the books about black magic in the restricted section of the Hogwarts library are not as scary as it looks. "

Lucius sneered: "That's natural. It's even scarier than all the dark magic books in the Malfoy family's collection." He put the diary on the table and just threw it away, more carelessly than Vanessa just now. It made her a little uncomfortable.

"What are you going to do with it?" she asked a little anxiously.

Lucius let out a thunder in a calm tone: "I'm going to give it to Dumbledore."

Vanessa opened her eyes wide, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.

It was as if she expected him to make such a choice at this moment, but she still asked in disbelief: "Give it to Dumbledore?"

This was Lucius' deliberate decision.

He was hesitant at first, not sure whether to do it or not, and had even decided to give up the idea.

However, Roxy's death and Vanessa's words gave him the final blow, and he picked up this idea again. He was very afraid that the next time he would get news of Vanessa's death at the Riddle Mansion, he possessed her and demanded her. Everything, but can't give her a legitimate identity, which is already very unfair to her, if he makes her die because of him, he will really go crazy.

Vanessa once thought that Lucius had protected her from suffering by removing her and her mother's names from the death list, but the relationship between her and Lucius was itself a reminder Fu, it's okay if others don't find out, but if they find her, there will be no good results.Of course Lucius would do everything in his power to hide the relationship and protect her, but the Parkinson incident reminded him.

There is still a sparseness in a hundred secrets.

If he can't be on high alert 24 hours a day and stares at her all the time, he has to think of other ways.

"Don't worry." Lucius didn't know whether he was comforting himself or others, "Do you know what I'm best at, Vanessa?"

Vanessa shook her head blankly.

"Business." Lucius said softly, "I will do business with Dumbledore, and I believe he will be happy to cooperate with me. He needs a partner like me, and I will get it from him Something I want."

In the end, his voice became lower and lower, "This may be a road full of thorns, and it will be very difficult, but I will persist. I didn't tell anyone about it, except you."

He looked at Vanessa and asked her, "Are you going to refuse to learn Occlumency now?"

Vanessa: "..." If she lost all her memories of arriving at Malfoy Manor today, then she would not be able to connect the subsequent events in series. She would be suspicious and worried all day long like a fool.

She couldn't and didn't want to lose this memory.

"I promise you."

In the end, Vanessa and Lucius continued to be entangled.

After Roxy died.

When leaving the Malfoy Manor, Lucius finally told her not to hold a funeral for Roxy, that would be too ostentatious, what she died for they know best, the matter has come to an end, there is no need to put Fanny away because of a funeral Sha was also exposed.

Vanessa knew what he said was right, so when she went back, she didn't inform anyone of Roxie's death, and no one could notify her. She quietly tidied up Roxie's body and found a cemetery in the Muggle world. buried her there.

the other side.

Lucius still has a lot of finishing touches to do.

For example, Parkinson, and the guy who was sent by the Dark Lord to kill Roxy.

Lucius always kept his word, especially when he promised Parkinson.

He said that he would pay the price. Parkinson didn't expect the price to come so quickly. He really didn't want Lucius to fulfill his promise so quickly in this matter.

"I didn't, I didn't do it, Your Highness the Dark Duke, it really has nothing to do with me!"

Parkinson's chubby body fell to the ground, tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, he was in a mess, and he didn't look as proud as before.

Lucius stood aside and looked contemptuously, clasped his hands and supported his cane, and said indifferently: "But there are so many people who have proved that you leaked this plan, which caused three of our people to be killed by Aurors. A dozen or so witches ran away—Parkinson, how do you explain this?"

Parkinson looked at Lucius in fear: "It's you! You must have framed me! You hold a grudge, you, you revenge me!"

Lucius said without changing his face: "This happened before you smeared me, Parkinson, are you stupid? How can you not even have a logic when you shirk responsibility? If you want me to say, it must be all because of you. Just think of the plan, you first sabotaged our actions, and then you slandered me in front of His Highness the Dark Duke, and provoked the relationship among the Death Eaters, I have to praise you for this, you almost succeeded, old friend."

Parkinson panicked and looked at several other people who were struggling and screaming on the ground. Their memories and testimony proved that he was the one who leaked the plan, but he never did it. He knew very well that this was Lucius' revenge. .He wanted to give the Dark Lord the memory of Lucius threatening him at the door of the Riddle Mansion, but the Dark Lord looked at the stupid man, frowned, and with a wave of his wand, several Cruciatus Curses were dropped, and Parkinson screamed , Struggling, his consciousness collapsed in an instant, and soon passed out under such a powerful Cruciatus Curse.

Lucius walked over, fiddled with Parkinson's body with his cane, and respectfully said, "My lord, he is unconscious, but even if he wakes up, he will only be a fool. Your magic power is as strong as ever."

Voldemort looked at Lucius meaningfully. He didn't fully believe everything in front of him, but he didn't ask any further questions. He chose the latter between Parkinson and Lucius. Lucius could tell from his eyes Li understands.

After a while, Voldemort smiled softly and said, "Of course, Lucius, of course I must be strong enough. Only in this way can I gain your loyalty, isn't it?"

Without even thinking about it, Lucius said: "I am your most loyal believer, my lord, I will solve all your troubles, it has nothing to do with your magic power, nothing to do with you, my loyalty to you is unconditional."

Voldemort was pleased by his rigorous and sincere speech, he took a last look at the several people who fell on the ground, and disappeared into the room with Nagini in disgust.

Lucius' nostrils were filled with the smell of blood. In the past, he would always feel disgust from the bottom of his heart for such scenes, but not today.

He cleaned up the mess himself, and then left the Riddle Mansion for another place.

He found the person who dragged Roxie to Knockturn Alley at that time, and he read the other party with Legilimency, and got some good news from the other party's mind.

After hesitating for a long time, he still pulled that memory out of the murderer's mind, and then modified his memory, making him foolishly clash with people in Knockturn Alley, and then died as a matter of course in the conflict.

As for the Duke of Darkness, a young man died in a fight, and it was not worth reporting to him at all.

Entering September, after Hogwarts started school, the horror condensed in the wizarding world was slightly diluted.

Vanessa worked peacefully at St. Mungo's. After thinking about it for a long time, she changed her surname according to Lucius's later proposal.

Since she was born, she has never received any help from the Wilson family. The two old people in the Wilson family who have not died don't even know that there is such a granddaughter as her.

Now that Roxy is dead, there is no need for her to use that surname, and it will cause trouble.

With the invisible help of Lucius, Vanessa changed her surname smoothly without leaving any traces, just like she did when she changed her surname to Wilson for the first time.

Lucius is the honorary minister of the Ministry of Magic, this trivial matter is simply not worth mentioning to him, if he can't even do this, the Dark Lord will not value him so much.

However, those classmates who used to study together, who knew her identity, were not so easy to deal with.

But it doesn't matter, the classmates after graduation are scattered all over the world, and most of them are Slytherins. Those who received the news secretly and didn't want to be loyal to the Dark Lord, probably hid abroad long ago. How could they be found so easily?

Besides, now that Parkinson is already stupid, no one will hold on to that funny-sounding rumor about Lucius, and they dare not.Look at what happened to Parkinson, that was the result of challenging Lucius Malfoy's status. The Dark Lord trusted him, stood by him, and those who witnessed all this, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks to him? Woolen cloth?

Not to mention, in that rumor, there was only Roxy, not Vanessa.

At the appointed time on the weekend, Vanessa went to the study in Malfoy Manor through the portkey.

Lucius was not there, so she walked to the sofa and sat down, glanced at the tall bookshelves in the study, and wanted to see what kind of books were in the old pure-blood noble's house, but without the owner's consent, she was honest in the end , did not touch anything.

Lucius soon appeared.

She waited only 5 minutes.

He pushed the door open, saw Vanessa, and subconsciously frowned.

Vanessa stood up and said, "We made an appointment about Occlumency, haven't you forgotten?"

Of course he didn't forget, he just thought of what he saw in the killer's mind.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he walked in, tapped the floor with his cane, and Yeda appeared, offering them black tea and dessert.

"Eat something first, I have something to show you later."

Lucius lifted his chin at her, motioning for her to do the same.

Vanessa blinked and said, "You can show me first, and then eat after reading. I'm not hungry yet."

After watching her, I'm afraid she won't be in the mood to eat.

"It's dinner time now, you should have just got off work and haven't eaten yet. Do as I say, and I'll show you after eating."

Unmoved, Lucius went to the hanger and unbuttoned the gold button of his robe. Vanessa immediately looked away, hesitated a little, and did as he said.

Lucius slowly took off the wizard robe, followed by the black overcoat.

He was only wearing a shirt and black trousers, and the shirt was tucked into the trousers, which made him look taller, thinner, and noble and charming.

He looked at the girl who was eating with her head down by the sofa, and sighed inaudibly.

Reason told him that he should hide everything so that she would not be so sad.

But feelings told him that she had a right to know those things, even though she might be sad.

The author has something to say: In this chapter, I buried a foreshadowing about Vanessa's Slytherin nature!

In addition, some babies said that the heroine is too weak. In fact, she is alone and has no one to rely on. She is not very safe. She is young and has survived until now. I don't plan to end QAQ right away. Probably in chapter 21, the heroine will have a new choice. Believe me, she will grow into a good woman who is independent!
