Chapter 2

Fear and Old Friends

Tom decided he need to see Ginny, He cast a disillusionment charm on himself and apperated outside the hogshead. Entering the dilapidated building he saw Ginny in the outfit Lucius described flirting with some random customer.

He took a seat at a table by the others she was serving.

" Can I get you a drink ?" She asked quickly and huffed when he didn't answer right away, she was obviously busy.

" Um yea butter beer please." He could not believe how much she had grown. When he knew her she was a short awkward little thing. Now she was tall, with long beautiful red hair, pale skin, and he couldn't stop himself from noticing how curvy she had become. She came back with the drink but she didn't try to flirt with him. She eyed him wearily, obviously having noticed him staring she quickly busied herself with other customers.

Tom couldn't bare to watch her throw herself at these men much longer so he dropped some money on the table and apperated home. He stormed into the manor and quickly summoned Lucius, Rabastan and Mucliber to his study.

" I'm giving you all a mission. I want you to bring Ginevra Weasley here."

" M 'Lord ?" Mucliber responded.

" Do not question me, Just do it. Do not hurt her, When her shift ends at the bar, which is in one hour she will head home alone. She has to walk outside the bar to apperate home that gives you a small window to take her. I will repeat do not hurt her. Bring her to the blue guest room and give her a sleeping potion."

The all looked quite confused. They didn't know why Tom would want Ginny here. They hesitated a moment.

"Go Now !" He yelled. They left in a hurry.

She will be safe with me and nobody else will ever touch her he thought to himself as he once again paced the room.

Ginny said goodnight to Helen and exited the pub. She stopped outside a moment to smoke a cigarette before she headed home. She started strolling down the empty street when suddenly everything went dark and she felt a pull behind her navel. Someone had accioed her, Lucius wrapped his arms around her tightly while Rabastan put a silencing charm on her and before she could even kick her legs she felt herself being apperated away from Diagon Alley.

With it being impossible to apperate into the manor they had to top on the front stoop allowing Ginny the opportunity to start kicking but they were to fast for her and she was stunned. They carried her to the blue guest room Tom mentioned and laid her on the bed. Ginny was like a prisoner in her own body, she could see but she couldn't speak or move. She watched in terror as they approached her and forced a potion down her throat. The last thing she saw before sleep took her was the death eaters from the bar laughing and exiting the room no doubt locking the door behind them.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"M' Lord" Lucius said wearily before bowing and approaching the desk he was sitting at.

" Did you get her ?"

" Yes, She is sleeping in the blue guest room."

" Good, Nobody is to enter that room but me, Do you understand ? tell the others nobody touches her." Lucius nodded.

" Good now go." His Ginny was here, so close to him he could almost feel her presence. He had to go see her.

Tom walked down the hall to the blue guest room, He unlocked the door and entered. He knew she wouldn't wake up until possibly late in the morning. She was laying on the bed perfectly still, Her red hair spread out on the blue silk pillow. He sat down next to her on the bed. He reached over and moved some hair away from her face and ran a hand down her cheek. He skin was so soft, He leaned over and placed a soft kiss on her lips, she whimpered and turned on her side.

" It's Ok princess, you'll never have to go back there. I'm going to make you mine." He whispered before leaving and going to bed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ginny woke up the next morning after the best sleep of her life. She turned over and stretched feeling the warm sun coming through the window. When she opened her eyes her smile disappeared. She shot up in the bed, looking down at herself realized she was still in her work clothes. She looked around the lavish room. The walls were a rich royal blue with mahogany furniture, gold fixtures and windows looking out onto unfamiliar grounds. She shot out of bed and ran to the door pulling at it franticly.

She noticed a door on the other side and went to try it, her hope being killed when she realized the only reason it was opened was because it was a full sized bathroom just as fancy as her room. Her breath became ragged and she was sure her heart would beat right through her chest. Next she tried the window but it wouldn't budge. She noticed her purse on the night stand and quickly checked for her wand, knowing it wouldn't be there anyway but her cigarettes where so she quickly took one out and lit it with the lighter she kept in her purse.

She started pacing the room begging herself not to cry but tears were quickly welling up in her eyes. Her parents are going to be so worried, they don't even know where she really works so they won't know where to look. Although she was sure they apperated very far away from Diagon Alley.

After a few minutes she was crying, she sat down on the window seat looking out onto the grounds and tried to see if she could recognize something, anything out there. She heard footsteps in the hall and was paralyzed with fear. She quickly jumped up from her seat when someone entered the room.

" Ginevra" A cold hard voice said, she nearly fainted with shock and fear when she looked up at who entered the room.

" Tom ?" She whispered. He walked into the room and locked the door behind him. He slowly started walking towards her, with every step he made towards her she moved away until she was backed into the corner of the room. Tom approached her and reached out to take the cigarette she was holding, she was to scared to stop him.

" You will quit this filthy muggle habit." He said coldly making it disappear. He reached out and ran a hand down her cheek causing her to flinch.

" Don't be scared, Come we need to talk" He took her hand and led her to the bed , where he sat down. She didn't sit next to him.

" Sit" She sat at the very edge of the bed, as far away from him as she could get without falling off.

" Wh...why do you look like him ?" She finally asked in barely a whisper.

" I am him, Ginevra. Through some very complicated magic I was able to be restored to my young self."

" Why am I here ?"

" Because I want you here Ginevra. How could you do this to yourself ?"

" Do what ?"

" Look at you !" He yelled making her jump.

" You are dressed like a slut Ginevra, Lucius told me you were selling yourself. I couldn't believe my Ginny would stoop so low."

"I don't sell myself." She said through her tears. He put a hand on her thigh which she quickly pushed away.

" What ? You let strangers touch you but not an old friend"

" I needed the money." She sobbed.

" I should have known your muggle loving father wouldn't be able to take care of you."

" Don't speak ill of my father, Its your fault that he can't work anymore."

" It doesn't matter anymore, You won't ever have to do that again."

"Wh...What do you mean ?" She asked very scared to hear the answer.

" Because I'm going to be taking care of you now"

" What ? I want to go home."

" They do not appreciate you. Your father makes you work at a sleazy bar and your friends abandoned you."

" My father doesn't know I work there. And I have friends. I want to go home" She yelled running over to the door and pulling at it with all her might.

Tom went over and took hold of her wrists.

" You are not leaving here ! Now get changed I can't stand to see you dressed in clothes other men have grouped you in !"

" I...I don't have any other clothes" She cried.

" The dresser and closet are filled with an entire wardrobe for you. Get dressed. I'll be back in 15 minutes to take you to breakfast. If you are not dressed I'll pick the outfit" He racked his eyes over her body. " And I don't think you want that." He pushed her back onto the bed and left the room.

Ginny tried to compose herself as she made her way to the dresser. Opening each of the drawers she saw that contained casual clothes, nightgowns and underthings. She pulled out a few things and realized there were no pants. She went to the closet that was also filled with dresses ranging from casual sun dresses to full length ball gowns.

She found a simple black three quarter length sleeve dress and put it on with matching pumps. She then went to the bathroom to wash up. She looked through the medicine cabinet and under the sink and was terrified to find it stocked for her to live there for quite some time. There was shampoo and body wash in the shower, bubble bath set on the tub, hair supplies on one shelf and female products under the sink. Ginny started shaking with fear when it became clear that he fully expected her to live there.

She made her way back to the bedroom and cried until Tom came barging in again.

" Good you're ready. Why are you crying ?"

" Why am I crying ! are you serious ! I've been kidnapped, I want to go home !" She yelled.

Tom reached over and pulled her off the bed holding her by her upper arms.

" You are home now, You better accept that little girl. And never ever yell at me again." He growled.

"Now come, you are far to thin." He took her hand and lead her to the dining room where the large table the sat 16 people was set for two. He pulled a chair out for her just to the right of the head where he sat.

The table was then laid with every type of breakfast food one could imagine. Tom started to fill his plate but Ginny didn't.

" Help yourself Ginevra"

"I'm not hungary"

" You look sickly thin. Now eat" She folded her arms across her chest stubbornly.

" Ginevra I am trying to be nice here, Is there something else you would like ? Well you are not leaving until you eat something." Ginny sighed heavily and a spoonful of eggs on her plate.

" There are a few things we need to go over." She raised an eyebrow at him.

" You need to understand that you belong to me now, I will provide for you. You are not let any other man touch you. "

"I belong to nobody Tom and I don't even want you touching me." She said.

" I do not wish to be harsh with you Ginevra but if you disobey me you will be punished. You are never to lie to me, ever. The other death eaters have been instructed not to bother you. Do not be stupid enough to try and leave the grounds. You are allowed outside and in the library but never enter the west wing of the second floor. Your room is charmed not to admit anyone who has not been given permission by me."

" Are you finished ?" She asked after she had finished the small amount of eggs she had placed on her plate.

" No" He waved his wand and her plate refilled with larger portions of food. " You will eat that before you leave this room. I will not tolerate you looking sickly. Now where was I ? Ah yes. We eat dinner every night at 7:30 you will dress for dinner each night, appropriate attire has been provided in your closet. You may take your lunch where ever you wish, Litty is your house elf."

He reached out a hand to touch her cheek, this time she was to afraid stop him.

"Have you missed me Ginny ?"

"No" She replied instinctively but the truth was she did, she missed who he used to be to her, not who he was now.

" I think thats a lie Ginny."

"You tried to kill me" She said flatly.

" Thats was a mistake and it's in the past. We can be together now."

" I don't want to be with you"

" You love me."

" I do not love you ! How could I love a murderer ?" She yelled.

" I think you are asking yourself the same question, because you know its true." Tears were again spilling from her eyes and she cried harder when she realized she was probably going to be crying allot now.

Tom cupped her face. " My Ginny don't cry, You will be my queen here."

" I'd like to go back to my room please." She managed to say. Tom rose from his seat and helped her up.

" I'd like to show you around first" He said linking her arm with his.

He showed her the library, the ballroom, His study, and the grounds. She wish he would stop acting like they were a real couple. Tom spoke to her as if she was there by choice. Finally after what seemed like an eternity he returned her to her room.

"I have some work to do but I will see you at Dinner." She just nodded and made to walk into her room but her pulled her back to him and kissed her softly on the lips before turning and walking away.

Ginny flung herself down on the bed and cried for an hour before realizing she hadn't showered since before work the night before. She decided that since she had all day she would take a nice long bath and try to calm down. She filled the jacuzzi tub with vanilla bubble bath and turned on the jets before lighting a cigarette and sinking into the warm water. She took a long drag of the cigarette and leaned her head back expelling the the smoke from her lungs.

" Damn if this jacuzzi were anywhere else I'd be ecstatic" She said out loud to herself. She took another drag and closed her eyes.

" I thought I told you I would not tolerate this filthy habit." Ginny screamed when she heard Tom's voice. She opened her eyes to see him towering over her.

" What the hell !" She screamed thankful that the bubble were keeping her covered. He snatched the cigarette from her hand and disposed of it.

"Can you please leave "

" No I don't think I will." He said sitting on the edge of the tub. He ran his fingers through the the water skimming the soft skin of her arm, Ginny was glad she instinctive folded her arms over her chest or he would have touched her breasts.

" I thought this was supposed to be my room."

" It is, I do want you to feel safe here but you were trying to harm yourself so I came to stop you."

" I was not trying to harm myself ! "

" You were smoking, Its bad for you." He said in an obvious tone.

" Why do you even care ?" She asked angrily.

" I do care, or I would not have brought you here."

" You don't care about me, If you did you would not have taken me from my family."

" I took you from a family that could not take care of you. Ginevra you are to young to be having to take care of them."

" I don't care and it's not your place to make that judgement. They are my parents I would do anything for them"

" Well thats good because if you do not cooperate with me I will let my death eaters have free reign on your family." Ginny looked terrified.

" Thats right Ginny I know where they are and they are only safe because I keep them safe, I suggest you do not test me." He got up to leave but hesitated at the door .

"You know Ginevra you really are beautiful. You never believed me then when I said you would be. That should prove to you that I know what I'm talking about." He said glancing in her direction but without actually meeting her eyes. Ginny stared at the spot he was standing in before he left trying to figure out if that was an actual compliment or another way to remind her how much control he had over her.
