Bellatrix’s lips twisted into a thin smile. “Tired?” She chuckled darkly, her voice hoarse from the strain of the night. “I’ve never felt more alive.”

Bellatrix’s gaze sharpened as she approached her sister, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Lucius and Draco are away, then?” Narcissa nodded. “Yes. They’ll be gone for some time.

She stepped closer, her voice dropping to a low whisper. “I’ve bound someone, Cissy. Someone important. Someone who will change everything.” Narcissa’s eyes flickered with confusion, then widened as realization began to dawn on her. “What do you mean, Bella?” Bellatrix leaned in closer, her breath hot against her sister’s ear. “Hermione Granger... is mine.”
