All Hallow's Eve
Chapter 21
Antonin nodded and helped her stand up, as many of the club-goers fled to avoid being arrested by the aurors. They carefully manoeuvred the club to avoid being caught, when all of a sudden he dove out of the way off a Crucio curse being sent his way.
"DIE, YOU DEATH EATER MURDERER! THE WIZARDING WORLD WILL DEFEAT YOU AND YOUR MASTER!" Hestia screamed fuming, and started firing curses at him, plus the others.
"Split up!" Rodolphus shouted urgently, all of them broke up in pairs and went off in opposite directions to Disapparate to their homes.
Antonin grabbed Elara's hand, and she held it back tightly as they fled from the club. They arrived outside the manor, and Elara helped keep Antonin up as he suddenly grimaced in pain.
Bloody hell, that cutting curse hurt like hell.
"Come on, I'll get some Murtlap Essence and Cyrus to help heal your wounds." Elara said softly, and they hurried into the hallway of the manor.
Antonin was about to say something, when he sensed a dark energy around the room, and saw a figure turn around.
"Crucio!"
Elara watched in horror as Antonin was hit with the Unforgivable curse, she heard him shout in pain. She ran over, and casted a non-verbal Protego shield charm over the two of them.
"Expulso!" A furious voice shouted, and she saw to her shock that it was Ron who was hurling the curses at them.
His eyes were manic and deranged.
"You belong to me, Elara!" Ron said harshly, and she saw his eyes flash dark crimson red briefly.
Was he possessed?
Before she could cast a defensive charm, he pinned her to the wall and he began to speak again, but this time it wasn't Ron's voice. It was a seductive, yet cold voice and she watched in horror as a dark shadowy smoke began coming out of Ron's mouth.
"Who are you?" Elara asked in a surprisingly steady voice, trying not to show fear in front of this demon whose body was coming out from Ron's mouth.
"I think you know who I am, Elara Dorea Potter Black Gaunt Dolohov! Your husband is the one who discovered what I was, after his pathetic grandfather encountered me." The man said darkly, he kicked Antonin in the side harshly.
"Leave him alone!" She screamed protectively, not wanting to see Antonin get hurt by this terrifying demon.
Ron smirked at her.
"Or what Elara? Your father promised me that I could have you, after I killed your husband. James doesn't want a Death Eater for a son-in-law." Ron said smugly, he was inhaling her neck and Abaddon hadn't noticed that Antonin was stirring awake.
He slid his hand over her left breast, and she kicked him in the crutch. Ron yelled in pain while Abaddon looked up from where he had been tying up Antonin.
"You bitch!" Ron yelled furious, and backhanded her across the face, causing her to hit her head on the corner of the oak dining table.
Abaddon hungrily looked over the unconscious body of his enemy's granddaughter and sneered at the Weasley boy mentally. Did he really think that he'd let him claim the girl? He had another thing coming.
She was a perfect vessel, young and fertile for his future child to enter the world.
"It's a shame you're my enemy, Elara. You'd give me many healthy sons, and you're beautiful like your paternal grandmother Euphemia, she willingly took me." Abaddon explained smugly, he began placing light kisses on her face, and he could smell her magic.
"Get away from my wife, Weasley!" Antonin snarled viciously.
Before Ron could do anything, or before Antonin could pounce on him, Elara blasted at him by using wandless magic on the man. Her dress was pulled down, exposing her bra.
Taking advantage, Antonin lunged at Ron and began beating him viciously as Elara collapsed on the floor.
She felt dirty, used.
She quickly pulled up her dress, trying to ignore the humiliation she had just endured as she watched her husband beating the boy. She had never seen Antonin so vicious and she thought that she should be frightened by this show of violence, but she only felt protected as it was in her defence.
With one last punch, Antonin let go of the red headed boy, who was unconscious and covered in blood on the floor with no sign of possession any longer. He quickly bound him in conjured ropes and hurried to his wife's side.
Elara was still huddled on the floor, her hands tightly holding onto the top of her dress, blood was slowly trickling down the side of her face and her cheek was starting to bruise. Antonin gathered her into his arms, calling for Cyrus to watch the unconscious boy on the floor, and quickly carried her out of the room.
Elara clutched tightly to his neck and he couldn't tell if she was shaking from the cruciatus still, or the shock of what had just happened. Perhaps it was both. He just held her tighter as he made his way to their bedroom.
He sat her down on the bed and carefully examined the bleeding gash on her temple where she had hit the table. He kept his face calm as he gently cleaned the wound before healing it, not wanting to scare the still shaking girl, but inside he was furious. How had the boy gotten into his manner? It should have been impossible. Not to mention her own father torturing her again! And this time he had been right there beside her and still couldn't protect her. This couldn't keep happening.
"I need to call the Aurors about this." He spoke softly.
"But what about the club? The Aurors were there and trying to arrest everyone. Wouldn't they just arrest you if you called?" Her voice was a bit shaky, but she managed to speak clearly as she looked up at him worriedly.
"That could not have possibly been a ministry sanctioned raid. Only Dumbledore's lackeys had been involved, for one, and two, they were using Unforgivables in the open. The ministry would never give anyone, not even an auror, leave to use those curses." He reassured her. "If it will make you more comfortable, I can call for Sirius to be here first." He suggested, knowing that she would feel safer with her adopted father being there.
Elara gave him a watery smile and nodded, a grateful look on her face.
Antonin kissed her forehead gently, and sent his patronus to Sirius, asking him to come here with the aurors. He sat by Elara and wrapped an arm around her protectively, as she leaned into him.
Sirius was furious, he rushed to Dolohov manor with Remus, Dorea, Amelia Bones, Lily and Kingsley. Antonin let them in, he looked bruised and he had a bandage wrapped around his upper left forearm while Elara had a blanket wrapped around herself, and there was a recently healed gash on the left side of her forehead.
She also had a bruised cheek.
"What happened, Ellie and Antonin?" Lily asked horrified, she saw Ron lying unconscious on the floor and looking battered.
"Ron broke into the manor, he was waiting for us and used the Crucio curse on Antonin. He tried to force himself on me, but I used wandless magic to push him away." Elara said quietly.
A healer quietly came over, while Antonin was taken to be questioned by Kingsley and Sirius.
"Lady Potter Black Dolohov, I need to do a physical exam to make sure you're alright." The woman said gently, Elara nodded and followed her with her mother and grandmother.
Elara had put on a hospital gown and sat on the medical table as she looked nervously at the healer who smiled reassuringly.
"He didn't rape me, he just touched my breasts and licked at my neck here." Elara said quietly, still feeling humiliated about what had happened.
No doubt, Molly Weasley would blame her.
She wiped her eyes, wishing that her mother and grandmother were here but they couldn't come in yet.
Anna nodded in understanding.
"Did he do anything else, touch you anywhere else?" She asked gently, Elara shook her head. Anna nodded, and took swabs, she was gentle and allowed her two female relatives to be in the room.
Abaddon was furious, he'd been so close to taking Elara but that husband of hers, Dolohov had interfered with his plan.
She'd been ripe for the taking.
He went to visit Ginny and found her in the bedroom that she shared with her husband, Harry who was meeting with Dumbledore. He entered the house, and Ginny looked up at his approach.
He took a moment to appreciate the nightgown she wore, it was black with light silver lace in the front.
"You know what I want, Ginevra." He said seductively, trailing his hand over her face, her neck and then her chest.
"My body?"
Abaddon grinned at her, and started kissing her, feeling her wrap her slim arms around him. Soon, he'd bring down the wizards and witches who'd imprisoned him.
Antonin hated being away from Elara, but he had to give his statement to Kingsley and Sirius. The Lord Black looked visibly angered, and only calmed down when Caroline squeezed his hand.
"I should have killed him when the All Hallow's Eve Ritual was being held. He tried to hurt Elara then, and he's tried to force himself on her before." he said bitterly, feeling responsible.
He should have killed Ron when he had the chance.
"Don't blame yourself. There were other things going on at the time, and I doubt you wanted Elara's first real meeting with you to be shadowed by you killing someone, in her defence or not." Sirius sighed, running a hand over his face, fighting back the urge to go on a rampage. Why did these things keep happening to his daughter? It wasn't fair.
"True." Antonin sighed. "If we are done here, I'd really like to get back to my wife. I need to see that she is safe for myself. I'll invite you back tomorrow to see her, Lord Black, but I can't imagine she wants to be crowded right now."
Sirius conceded the point, though it was clear that he did not like it.
Antonin just wanted everyone out of his manor, so he could activate the emergency wards. They usually didn't get activated unless the manor was under attack, but with Weasley managing to break in he wasn't taking any chances. Once activated, the emergency wards would kill anyone that managed to get into the manor that wasn't keyed into them, which he had made sure Elara was when they had first gotten there.
After saying goodbye to the auror's, Antonin made his way up to the master bedroom where Elara was huddled on the bed, wrapped tightly in the blankets, and firmly in the arms of her mother and grandmother. Her eyes were red-rimmed and her face pale as she stared rather blankly at the wall. It was a worrying site.
"The others are getting ready to leave. Once everyone is gone, I will be activating the emergency wards, so we can get some sleep without having to worry. You are more than welcome to come back in the morning. I will floo to let you know when we are ready for you." he spoke quietly, barely glancing at the older women, unable to look away from Elara's still slightly bruised face.
"Of course." Dorea spoke softly, "We will let you both get some rest."
Lily hugged her daughter tightly, "We will be back in the morning, sweetie. Antonin will look after you." The look in her poisonous green eyes had a very clear 'Or else' in them.
Antonin nodded to acknowledge the silent threat and moved to take their place as they vacated the large bed.
The two women left quietly, shutting the door behind them, and Antonin pulled the unresponsive witch into his arms. He held her tightly to him as she buried her face into his firm chest. Neither of them spoke, and as soon as Antonin felt the last magical signature leave the manor, he activated the emergency wards, relaxing slightly once they were firmly up.
"It's alright, I've got you. I'm not going to let Ron or anyone else hurt you, Elara." He whispered comfortingly, Elara said nothing, but her grip tightened on him slightly.
"I'm tired of being a victim, Antonin. I want to learn how to protect myself, and not be so weak." Elara said finally, her green eyes determined.
Antonin nodded and squeezed her hand tightly, he would teach her Martial and defensive magic. He was proud of her, and he held her tightly against his chest.
"We'll begin in the morning. I won't let him hurt you." He said fiercely, holding her snug against him.
If there was truly a crime that the wizards and witches despised, it was sexual assault. Such a crime could see the guilty party immediately pushed through the veil or given the Dementor's Kiss. Ron Weasley had been taken to an interview room, Molly Weasley had insisted on being in the room with her son. Ron's face was badly bruised, and he had cuts on his left jaw.
"Ronald Billius Weasley, you are being interviewed by Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt and Nymphadora Druella Lupin." Kingsley stated, his voice hard.
Ron glared at him angrily, his blue eyes flashing red with anger. Didn't any of these people realise that Elara was being seduced by Dolohov?
"My son is the victim here, Kingsley. Antonin Dolohov nearly killed him!" Molly said outraged, her face turning dark red with anger.
"Miss Prewett please be quiet, you are allowed to be in the room but not permitted to speak." Tonks reprimanded harshly, Molly turning practically red in the face but quietened.
"Lord Weasley, why did you break into the Dolohov Manor tonight?" Kingsley asked calmly, his eyes never leaving the young man's face. Ron glowered in return.
"I was going to make Elara see reason, she was being unfair to Ginny. It was an accident, Ginny didn't mean to hurt her. She caused my sister to be expelled!" Ron yelled angrily, finally fed up.
"Lord Weasley, you attempted to sexually assault Lady Potter Black Dolohov." Tonks said calmly, but inwardly she was seething with anger at what he had tried to do to her cousin.
Ron shrugged, and Molly interrupted once again. She'd clearly not listened to the warning, about talking.
"Elara is a temptress, she seduced my son! She's just like her mother, a whore who'll spread her legs for any Dark Wizard that pays her attention. Dumbledore was right about her, she's evil!" Molly ranted infuriated.
"Miss Prewett, one more outburst from you and you will be expelled from the room! You are to remain silent throughout this process." Kingsley snapped, tired of the woman already.
Molly seethed in anger, but quieted down, even as Ron's face flushed red.
"Don't speak to my Mum that way!" The red head snapped.
Tonks' eyes narrowed at the boy in warning, "You are being interrogated at the moment, Lord Weasley. You do not get the luxury of demanding anything of us."
"Now, let's try this again. You attempted to sexually assault Lady Potter Black Dolohov. Do you deny this?" Kingsley spoke in a barely contained tone.
Now if it was nearly anyone else but Ronald Weasley, they most likely would have denied the claim and demanded a lawyer. But Ron had never paid much attention when being taught the laws and rights of a citizen of Wizarding Britain. He never thought he would need to know it since he was best friends with the Potter Heir and had Dumbledore on his side. He was under the belief that Dumbledore was above the law and that the Potters, being famous, could get him out of any type of trouble without issue. He was clearly deluded.
Ron snorted, half amused, half derisive. "She was supposed to be mine. She had been promised to me since we were children. I was just taking what rightfully belonged to me. She's a dark witch, no better than a feral beast. She's lucky that I even showed such interest in her and should be grovelling at my feet, where she belongs."
The room was dead silent after that left his mouth. Tonks had to lock her entire body down to prevent herself from leaping across the table to strangle the boy with her bare hands. How dare this deluded, evil, crazy child call her cousin a feral beast! He acted like Elara should have just rolled over and let him have her just because he thought she was dark. He made it seem like dark witches and wizards shouldn't have any rights in the magical world so that "Good Light wizards" could do as they pleased with them.
"We will take that as a confession." Kingsley's face was like stone as he spoke with a tightly controlled voice. This kid needed a mind healer. No normal wizard thought the way he did.
"Ronald Billius Weasley, you are under arrest for the attempted rape of Lady Elara Dorea Potter Black Dolohov. You are also under arrest for the attempted murder of Lord Antonin Dolohov," Tonks declared coldly, seeing Molly pale in horror.
"Now wait just a minute, you can't arrest my son! He was just upset about Elara not being kind to Ginny!" Molly said desperately, as Moody and Dawlish grabbed Ron.
"Your son will be taken to the cells, to await his trial." Kingsley said sternly to Molly, who blanched.
Elara couldn't sleep and turned around to see that Antonin was gone, she frowned and got up. She quickly got her kimono dressing gown and went in search of her husband.
"Antonin?" She asked quietly, and that was when she heard something in the study. She cautiously entered and saw Antonin shirtless with a glass of fire whisky. He looked lost in thought, and she wordlessly sat down beside him.
"You should be sleeping, Elara." He said quietly. He set his glass down and wrapped an around her protectively. She sighed and leaned into him.
"I couldn't sleep, and I wanted to tell you something," She replied, Antonin looked at her curiously.
"What is it?" He asked wearily, not sure if he liked the tone of her voice and held her closely to him.
"When Ron was touching me, his eyes flashed red. And he felt different, like I sensed darkness around him." She explained quietly, Antonin felt his blood go cold.
"Fuck." He said darkly, knowing what she was implying.
Ron had bonded with Abaddon.
Enjoy, and review :)
