Prologue
I pushed the door open careful and stepped inside. Lately my home had become my hell.
The smell of blood hit me the second I shut the door behind me. I felt a flutter of panic in my chest and I ran into the living room. There was blood everywhere, smeared on the walls and staining the hardwood floors. My eyes darted around the room trying to take in every detail and then I saw it, the pitiful shape lying in the corner. My heart pounded as I walked towards it, praying that what I thought was true was just my imagination.
I turned the shape over and I let out a strangled scream.
"My little girl, my baby oh my god!" I heard a voice say and then I realised that it was my own.
I bent down to cradle her in my arms. Her face was still and she looked like she was sleeping yet she wasn't breathing. It was the killing curse that did it and mercifully the blood that was everywhere was not hers.
I heard footsteps behind me and I turned. I could vauguely make out my husband as he made his way towards me. His image was distorted by the tears that were in my eyes.
"Call it my revenge," He whispered in my ear and I let out a howl of pain.
"Revenge for what Rodolphus? What did I do that could warant this?" I asked, my voice weaker than I had intended it to be.
"For stopping me from marrying Melody," He said and I sobbed harder. He had to bring her up now didn't he?
"The Dark Lord is coming," He said and I nodded solemnly. I knew what he meant. Tidy up the mess and pull yourself together Bella or else we'll both get it. Only I didn't care anymore. My baby girl was dead, whatever happened next didn't matter.
