The Black Widow spider is infamous for two, very well known, facts.
First, this arachnid is among the most poisonous to live. Quiet capable of making their unfortunate victims fatally ill.
Second, the female or dominant, devours their mate after courtship. Rips them apart, slowly eating them from inside out.
Draco Malfoy was a black Widow.
After the war, Harry Potter had attempted to have a relationship with the Ex-death eater. It had worked, involved loads of screaming and nights on the couch but it worked.
Four years later, Draco had spun complex spider webs in his love's head. Then left him dazed and thoroughly poisoned.
Every day, many times a day, Harry's best friends tried to reach him.
Firecalls never picked up.
Owls always came back with their letters, and no response.
Desperate to hear his voice, Hermione Weasely picked up her Muggle telephone and dialed an old number. Harry's cell rang half a dozen times before voicemail set in.
Hermione let loose an exasperated sigh as her broken friend's tired and animated voice filled her ears.
"Sorry, I'm not home right now, I'm walkin' through spider webs so leave a message and I'll call you back."
