Marilyn Monroe once said "I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love. "I don't normally go around comparing myself to Muggle movie stars, but in this case, I've never known word to be truer about me.

I have done so many good things, fighting for the ideal of love. But I have also done many bad things, in the name of love, for the man I love.

I have tortured, killed, deceived those who care most about me. And for what? For a man who will never love me, as much as I lead myself to believe. He may try (and maybe in his own twisted mind he thinks he does love me) but he will not – there is not a bone in his body capable of love.

I often wonder how his life would have turned out, had his mother lived. Maybe he would have grown up in a caring, loving environment and known affection. Or maybe the evilness within him is ingrained upon his soul.

My name is Hermione Granger, and I am telling you my story, to show how easy it was to fall in love with the most evil man to walk this planet.

After all "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
