Chapter 4

Prince Manor

Notes: I apologize if the story is not good enough for the reader but I am trying my best. Thank you.

Bloody hell! I know that based on one of the fanfiction that I read about Prince manor, it has been described as one of the best. But, I never knew that this manor is so great and beautiful. Is that swimming pool? I can't wait to jump into the pool. Hehe. The garden is full of beautiful flowers. I only know some of its name. At the right manor, I can see the small forest. I wonder why he prefer to live at Hogwarts? Dude, if I were you, I rather live in here. It's look calm and full of peace.

"Welcome to the Prince Manor, Ethan. I hope you will be able to enjoy living in here." said Snape. I nodded, showing my excitement. He give me a tour and tell me which room I cannot enter without his supervision such as his Potion Laboratory or permission, his office room. I cannot deny that inside the manor also look beautiful. After the tour, he tell me to go to living room. I wonder why. It is something matter? Huh. I sigh.

I sit up straight after seeing him coming towards me before sitting in front of me. He called the house elf to bring some tea and biscuits. He just look at me. I really hope that I do not show him how nervous I am when he do that.

"I hope this manor is up to your standard." He stated, breaking the silence. I replied sincerely that this manor is lovely and beautiful. He seems satisfied with my answer.

"Very well. Right now, I want to discuss about the rules and consequences. First rules, always respect your elders. Second, if you have any problem please come to see me. I will help you as best as I can. Third, do not lie to me when I asked you the question. You can say that you do not want to answer but do not lie. Understand? Four, if I asked you to do something, I want you to obey it. Do not worry. I am not going put you in dangerous situation. Five, always clean up your room. A few mess is acceptable." He listed the rules.

"Ok, uncle sev." I replied.

"The consequences if you disobey me is writing lines, scrubbing the flask and cauldron, standing at corner, grounded and lastly, you will get spanking if you put yourself in dangerous situation. Do you understand?" He asked me while looking at me. I am not sure why but I feel like he is trying to see whether I am afraid of him or if I will protest about it.

"I understand, uncle sev. I am not planning to disobey you." I said confidently. He just smirking at me. I know it is hard to believe. Come on, I know that kids or teenagers always try to find a reason to disobey but hey I am trying to be a good boy. Hehe.

"I hope so." He said. He told me that I can do whatever I want as long as it is not dangerous. Before I go to my room, I told him that I am grateful for taking care of me. I left without letting him saying anything. So, I do not saw that he looked at me with loving eyes. I guess it is time for me to increase my training because I want to protect and prevent him from dying by Voldemort's hands.
