She turned around and her gaze immediately fell on her uncle and a young blond man. The last one was looking at her with a look that made her uncomfortable.
"Uncle Tom" responded Elena in an equally cold voice.
"I don't like to be disobeyed Elena. I am sure that you remember that." scolded her uncle. "What happened to you Lucius?" he added after hearing a painful cry and giving his niece a disapproving look.
"A curse hit me in the chest and nothing can make it stops my… Tom" remember Lucius.
Voldemort sighed and gave his niece a dark look. "You actually dared to curse him?" he questioned Elena. "Well I strongly suggest that you take the curse off him for I am sure that the last thing you want is to have your future father-in-law mad at you." He added at his niece's nod.
Elena's eyes opened wide and with a small gesture of her hand she took the curse off the man before narrowing her eyes at her uncle. "I don't care if you want me to marry. I simply won't. You can't control my life. I won't let you. I already have plans and I intend to carry them out." she said with determination.
"You can forget about being a member of that stupid duelist team. I definitively won't let you enter that team and I am sure that you future husband will do the same." he informed his niece. "Yes I am aware of that. I even saw that duel. I'm not happy about that but we will talk about it later." added Voldemort when he saw the surprised look on his niece's face. "Where's Tylla?"
A "pop" was heard and the skinny house elf appeared. "I'm here master Tom. I'm here with mistress Elena's luggage." she said immediately.
"Good. You will give me a complete report on Elena's actions later. For now just stay in a corner and makes sure that my niece isn't lying to us."
"It will be my pleasure master Tom." responded the elf while going to a corner right beside Elena.
Not a word was exchanged for a few minutes. Elena was looking harshly at her uncle while he was silently daring her to disobey him again. The two blond men just kept looking at them, wondering who was going to win the staring contest. Elena sighed and lowered her eyes in defeat although it didn't mean that she was going to obey her uncle.
"As I was saying you will marry as soon as possible. I want you to act as a proper lady should for I am making you marry someone ranked very high in the England pureblood society. Now I do believe that you need to apologize to your future father-in-law, Lucius Malfoy, for having cursed him." said Voldemort with a voice that clearly means that apologies were expect.
"No. I won't apologize." replied Elena defiantly. "I won't do it since I don't mean it. He deserved what he got."
"I asked you to apologize now. I won't take no for an answer." yelled her uncle while sending her a very angry look.
Knowing that the last thing she needed now was an angry uncle on her back, Elena sighed and muttered an apology. Lucius simply looked at her well aware that she didn't mean it but kept quiet.
"Well that's a start. Next time I ask you to do something do it without complaining. It will save you from a lot of trouble. Now is the time for you to meet your future husband since you already have met his father. Elena I present to you Draco Malfoy, heir of the Malfoy family fortune and if you have not guessed yet, your future husband."
The younger blond man came forward and took Elena's hand and kissed it. Elena simply looked at him with an impassive expression while he stood there grinning at her. She then glanced back at her uncle.
"That's all you could find uncle Tom? Sorry but I am not interested. There is no way that I'm spending the rest of my life with him." smirked Elena knowing full well that it would displease her uncle. Draco simply looked at her offended.
"Elena" he said warningly. "Don't you even dare to criticize my choice. You will marry him and that's it. You don't have a say in it."
"You're not interested? Well let me tell you that a lot of women will give anything to change place with you. You should be honored. Anyway it's not like you have the choice. It is after all our fate to marry." he replied while glaring at her.
"Yeah right! As if I would believe that."
"He is right Elena." said Lucius. "No matter if you want it or not you will have to marry my son."
Elena looked at them in confusion. "And why is that?" she questioned.
Voldemort grinned. "You see my dear niece it seems that Draco here is part veela. I'm sure that you are aware that part veela have a mate that is chosen for them."
"Everybody knows that. But I don't see what it has to do with me. I can't be his mate. I don't even find him attractive!" she said in a bored voice.
"That is normal. Every woman is at my feet. Everyone but you. Everyone but my mate." replied Draco Malfoy with an air of triumph.
"And we know it's you because he saw you in a dream." said Voldemort. "I have even been able to see the image he saw in his dream and let me tell you that it's you that he saw." He added when he saw the unbelieving look that his niece was sending the younger blond haired man. "You do are aware that a veela tends to get overprotective of their mate until he marks her?" Elena nodded. "Well then you don't really have a choice. You belong to him and that's final."
The three men looked at her with a winning smile. They knew that now she would have to accept everything.
"After I marked you tonight you will officially be mine." added Draco seeing her sight in defeat.
"No!" The three men looked at her in surprised before quickly looking at her in anger. "I won't let you mark me tonight. We don't even know each other. Anyway I won't let you mark me before we are married. You will have to wait for I want a marriage first. Don't you even try to make me change my mind, it won't work. I deserve it for being forced into this." she said in a firm voice.
The men looked at her with the intention to refuse her request. Seeing their looks Elena quickly added that she wouldn't make any trouble if they agree to her request.
"You are marrying Draco in exactly a week. I suggest that you used that time to get to know him for he will probably mark you as soon as you two are married." decided her uncle therefore agreeing to her request.
A soft knock was here. "Come in Narcissa. It is time for you to meet our future daughter-in-law." softly said Lucius. The door opened and a beautiful middle aged woman came in.
