Bellatrix didn’t know why the idiots thought it was smart to gather there or to gather at all after learning the Dark Lord was dead. She would have gone underground right away. Taken the first port key she could out of the country. Then she would live in the safe house she set up for herself. Setting up safe houses being something they all should have done as soon as they joined the cause. That was if they were smart but based on the fact the room was full it proved they were not smart at all. Even not being a member of either of the causes Bellatrix and her sisters had many safe houses all over world. That way if they had to hide Hermione they would be able to.
“Black is right. We need to leave.”Alecto Carrow agreed.
“Where do we go though?”A random man asked.
“We should gather all our recourses and distribute them evenly so we each can get away.”Greyback said.
“Black and her sister still have access to their husband’s vaults. They should empty them and give us the gold to live off of.”Macnair suggested.
Bellatrix laughed.”I’m not going to empty Rod’s vault and give you lot the contents.”
“We deserve the gold as a reward for being members of the Dark Lord’s army.”A woman argued.
“Then Alecto should empty her vault as well.”Bellatrix knew the woman would never give anyone her family’s gold. Something she was proven right about when the woman spoke.
“I am not giving away my family’s hard earned gold. The rest of you morons are on your own. As it is I’m getting out of here.”Alecto didn’t wait for a reply as she made her way out the room with a few people following after her.
“If Black isn’t going help then Narcissa should. It is well known Lucius is the biggest financial supporter of the cause. He would definitely volunteer his gold if it helped us.”Macnair said.
“If you think I’m going to let you drain my baby sister’s coffers you are insane.”Bellatrix wasn’t going to let anyone touch her or her sister’s husband’s vaults. They belonged to Hermione.
“You don’t have a say in this Black.”Another man said.
Bellatrix pulled out her wand and twirled it between her fingers.”As matter of fact I have the only say in this.”
“You can’t stop us from taking the gold.”Harriet Parkinson told her. Bellatrix wondered why the woman would need any gold. Then again her husband probably didn’t give her access to the Parkinson family vault.
“Anyone who thinks they can force me or my sister to give them anything will meet the end of my wand.”Bellatrix wouldn’t hesitate to hurt anyone who attacked her or Narcissa.
“Black think of what the Dark Lord would want. He would want us all safe so that we can regroup and continue the fight. To do that we need to be able to support ourselves. We can’t survive without the gold from those two vaults.”This time it was a man that Bellatrix had seen receive more than one beating from the Dark Lord who spoke.
Bellatrix was not moved by his words.”It’s not happening. Now that that’s settled the group of you need to leave. The Order will be here soon and I don’t want you damaging the Manor trying to fight your way out of here.”
“Black give us the gold.”Greyback bared his teeth trying to intimidate her.
Bellatrix laughed.”Is that supposed to make me scared of you?”
“You will be scared of all us if you don’t comply with our demands.”Macnair told her.
“You have five minutes to leave this room before I trap all of you in here and hand you over to the Order.”Bellatrix was sick of dealing with the idiots.
“You wouldn’t.”Harriet said.
“Oh I would and I bet they would be very interested in hearing what I have to say about everything.”Bellatrix was planning on singing like a bird against every single person in the room. So was Narcissa.
“I always knew you were a traitor.”Greyback growled out as he made his way out of the room. The majority of the others following him.
Bellatrix raised her eyebrow at the remaining handful.”Are you really going to take the chance?”
“This isn’t over Black. I’ll get you for this.”Macnair threatened before he left along with the rest of them. Each giving her dirty looks.
Bellatrix followed after them making sure they actually left. When the last one was gone she smiled.”Alright Cissa you can change the wards now.”
“With pleasure.”Narcissa pulled out her wand and began altering the wards that resided on the manor. Once done she smiled.”That will give a few of them some nasty surprises when they try to come back here.”
“Something they definitely will do. Especially because they want our gold.”Bellatrix didn’t know how they expected to get it but it was obvious more than one person in that meeting had their sights set on the Lestrange and the Malfoy family vaults. It made Bellatrix curse their husbands for letting others know they had access. Rodolphus liked to brag about how good he treated Bellatrix by giving her access and Lucius liked to brag about how obedient Narcissa was that she never spent anything without his permission even though she could. If they kept their mouths shut Bellatrix and Narcissa wouldn’t be targeted for their access.
“I thought Greyback was going to put up more of a fight than he did.”Narcissa said.
“I did to but I think the fact that he knows that the Order will be showing up stopped him. I do predict he along with a few others are going to regroup and work out a plan to kill me and force you into giving them the Malfoy gold.”Bellatrix being dead was the only way anyone could target her sister because everyone knew that Bellatrix would do anything she had to do to protect Narcissa.
“I find it funny that everyone thinks I’m so weak when in reality I have beaten you numerous times while dueling.”Narcissa was just as deadly as Bellatrix with a wand.
“It’s good they underestimate you. Then they won’t actually strike you with anything that will hurt you.”Bellatrix said.
“Speaking of striking when do you think the Order will show up?”Narcissa asked as she made her way towards Lucius’ study. That’s where he kept the best alcohol.
“Tomorrow afternoon or the next day. They have to question enough people to actually confirm this was the Dark Lord’s headquarters.”Bellatrix entered the room wasting no time sitting in Lucius’ desk chair and putting her feet on his desk.
Narcissa went to the bar in the corner of the room and poured herself some scotch.”You want one?”
“I think I’ll have some whiskey.”Bellatrix told her.
Narcissa poured a glass and handed it to Bellatrix before she took a seat on one of the visitor’s chairs across the desk from her. She took a sip from her glass and sighed.”We are so close.”
“I think you and I should make a toast.”Bellatrix held up her glass.”To the Dark Lord being dead and us being one step closer to being with Hermione full time.”
“That I will happily drink to.”Narcissa thought those things were definitely something to celebrate.
“What do you think is going on on the other side?”Bellatrix asked.
“They are probably overwhelmed with cleaning up the mess that the events of tonight caused. Andy I assume will be up most of the night dealing with the injured. I personally am most curious to know who on both sides died tonight.”Narcissa wanted to know what threats had been eliminated.
“We know for sure Lily and James are dead.”Bellatrix had been very pleased to hear it.
“I hope it was painful.”Narcissa would never forgive Lily or her husband for what they did to Severus. The man had been a good friend to Narcissa and he didn’t deserve the constant abuse he received from the couple and their friends.
“Even though we are going to make sure Hermione stays away from him I think we should keep an eye on Harry. He’s obviously who the Dark Lord’s prophesy was talking about but we don’t know if he will be important in the future as well.”Bellatrix said.
“I agree.”Narcissa to thought he may play a role in the future.
“I wish it weren’t so late because this is the perfect time for us to visit Hermione. No one is here to question where we are going and any visitors we are going to get won’t come until at least tomorrow afternoon.”Bellatrix hated not living with Hermione and was planning on talking to the Grangers about it once everything settled down. Something she knew her sisters were going to speak to them about as well.
“Soon we won’t have to be away from her.”Narcissa just like her sister was going to talk to the Grangers about everyone’s living arrangements. It would be silly to live away from Hermione once it was safe to be linked to her in public.
“I need to get a couple outfits made for her so she can wear them in her pictures.”Bellatrix was going to get a quidditch uniform complete with robes made for the baby. The one she already had was for when Hermione was older but Bellatrix figured if Hermione was only wearing it for a short amount of time then she wouldn’t be uncomfortable in the outfit.
“I’ve already been researching magical photographers to set up a photoshoot with her when it’s safe.”Narcissa was planning on getting regular photoshoots done of Hermione while she was growing up.
“I need to get my own camera so I can take pictures whenever I want.”Bellatrix would have to look into that soon.
“We need to ask Jean and Denis if they have a muggle one.”Narcissa wouldn’t mind some muggle photos of Hermione.
“They likely do based on the pictures they have hanging up in their house.”Bellatrix figured they had already taken pictures of Hermione. She made a mental note to ask next time she visited.
“I still can’t believe all they told us about grandmother Sofia.”Narcissa said.
“A lot of her actions towards us make sense now.”Bellatrix had never understood why their surly grandmother who hated everyone and everything was so kind to her and her sisters. The old woman always went out of her way to make sure they got gifts for their birthdays and holidays and would visit regularly while they were growing up. It drove their mother insane not being able to stop her grandmother from giving them things or not being able to take the gifts away.
“I just hate that we never got the chance to thank her for all she did for us.”Narcissa would have liked to have shown her gratitude for all the woman’s help.
“I’m happy she had such a great relationship with the Grangers. In all the pictures I saw she was happy and smiling.”Bellatrix liked that Sofia had at least some joy in her life.
“It’s to bad she didn’t get to meet Hermione.”Narcissa thought her grandmother would have fallen just as in love as the sisters and the Grangers did with Hermione.
Bellatrix took a sip of her drink.”Our soulmate would have had Sofia wrapped around her chubby little finger.”
“She does have chubby fingers doesn’t she.”Narcissa thought they were adorable.
“Her whole body is chubby. Every time I see her I just want pinch her cheeks.”Bellatrix only refrained out of fear of hurting Hermione.
“I want to send Andy a message but it’s not safe right now. It’s just killing me to know that it’s finally coming to an end and we don’t know what the Order is planning to do now.”Narcissa wanted to have an exact timeline on how things would play out. It frustrated her that she wouldn’t get one.
“She will reach out when she can.”Bellatrix knew without a doubt that the first chance she got Andromeda would send them a message.
“I’m looking forward to going through this house and ridding it of all Lucius’ belongings.”Narcissa said.
“Let’s start with this room.”Bellatrix knocked back the rest of her drink and set the glass on the desk. Pushing her seat back she opened one of the desk drawers. In it she found a muggle picture and held it up for Narcissa to see.”I think this is his whore holding his bastard.”
Narcissa took the picture from her and looked at the smiling face of a brown haired woman holding a baby.”She isn’t that pretty is she?”
“Even though I would always say she was hideous in this case I wouldn’t be lying. Lucius did not pick that woman for her looks.”Bellatrix rummaged through the rest of the drawer before closing it and moving on to the next one.
“I figured he picked muggle women as his mistresses because of it being such a taboo thing to have sex with a muggle. I just thought he would pick attractive ones.”Narcissa wasn’t upset that Lucius cheated on her she just thought that he would choose someone as good looking as she was.
“Most pureblood men keep muggle women as mistresses. Rod had at least half a dozen. It actually boggles my mind that he has no children by them.”Bellatrix pulled a folder out of the drawer and laid it on the table. Going through the documents she smiled.”It looks like the Dark Lord did us a big favor by picking tonight to go on his mission.”
Narcissa took the documents Bellatrix held out for her. Reading them over Narcissa smiled as well.”The man was actually going to gift one of the Malfoy family homes to the woman and set his son up with access to the Malfoy family vault.”
“He didn’t get a chance to file any of the paperwork though. That means it’s not legal.”Bellatrix was very happy that Lucius didn’t get a chance to follow through on filing the paperwork.
“We should still get the contents out of the Malfoy vault though.”Narcissa didn’t want there to be even a small chance of the boy getting access to it.
“We need the Grangers to set up a vault for Hermione first.”Bellatrix like Narcissa didn’t want the boy to benefit from the Malfoy estate.
“As soon as Lucius is in Azkaban we will do it.”Narcissa told her.
“I wish I could be there to see both our husbands’ reactions when they find out they are no longer the Head of Household to either of their families.”Bellatrix wanted to rub it in their faces.
“They are going to be extremely upset when they get the news.”Narcissa expected both men to throw big tantrums when they found out.
“They are going to be pissed.”Bellatrix moved on to the last drawer finding some kind of catalog. Opening it she laughed.”Did Lucius ever bring up sex toys to you?”
Narcissa shook her head.”No the sex I made him believe we had was basic, missionary position, very boring sex.”
“Well this is a catalog for all kinds of sex toys and devices to enhance the experience.”Bellatrix flipped through the book stopping every few pages when something caught her eye.
“I don’t want to know.”Narcissa shivered in disgust at the thought of Lucius having sex with anyone.”We won’t have to worry about that stuff for a decade and half if not more.”
“It’s weird but I’ve never even been tempted to have sex with anyone. No one male or female has ever made me feel any urge to kiss them let alone have sex with them.”Bellatrix hadn’t even cared about sex.
“Me neither but I think it’s likely because we have known about our soulmate since we were children.”Narcissa like Bellatrix didn’t care about sex.
“Even now my feelings for Hermione aren’t romantic. I just want to take care of her, make her happy and keep her safe.”Bellatrix figured the romantic feelings would come when Hermione was a lot older. Something she didn’t mind in the least because it would be weird to have romantic feelings for a baby.
“I know what you mean. There is no doubt that I love her but that love is more in regards to a person loving someone they are protecting. It’s not romantic at all.”Narcissa wouldn’t want it to be romantic.
“What are you thinking about Andy’s idea to get jobs at Hogwarts?”Bellatrix asked.
“I think it’s a good one because Hermione is going to need the extra protection. That and I want to be there to run off any would be suitors.”Narcissa wouldn’t put up with any hormone riddled teenagers sniffing around Hermione.
“She is going to be the best catch on the market when she comes of age. Why I bet people older than us will try and court her.”Bellatrix would of course never let Hermione date anyone except she and her sisters but Bellatrix knew many would try.
“That’s why it’s so important for us to be there to intercept anyone who approaches her.”Narcissa knew that Hermione would choose her and her sisters over others she just didn’t want anyone tempting Hermione.
“I just need to find a job I am eligible for.”Bellatrix might have to get a masters in something to help her convince Dumbledore to give her a job.
“I’m thinking of going after the potions professor job.”Narcissa knew she would be a good professor.
“That would be perfect for you.”Bellatrix said.
Before Narcissa could reply an elf appeared in the room holding a letter.”What can I do for you Harty?”
“Harty has a letter for you misses.”Harty handed the letter to Narcissa.
“That will be all thank you Harty.”Narcissa waited until the elf disappeared to open the letter. Reading it over she smiled.”It seems Andromeda has exciting news for us and wishes to meet at the Granger’s in the morning.”
“Does she say what the news is?”Bellatrix asked.
Narcissa shook her head.”No she just said she has exciting news for us. What that news is and what classifies it as exciting I don’t know.”
“I hate having to wait.”Bellatrix wanted to know what Andromeda would consider exciting news. The middle Black sister wasn’t one to blow things out of proportion so if Andromeda said it was exciting news then Bellatrix knew it really was exciting news.
“Well we have to and after such an eventual day and night I’m going to go take a bath then go to bed.”Narcissa wanted to use a few hours of peace they had before the world descended on them to relax. Relaxing being something that she was sure she wasn’t going to be doing much of in the coming months.
Bellatrix stood from her seat.“I’m going to go rummage around the library. I want to see if there is any good children’s books for Hermione.”
“It’s to bad we couldn’t get into Black manor to get the ones we liked as children.”Narcissa would have loved to read Hermione her favorite books.
“That’s what I’m checking the library for and if they don’t have the ones I want I’m going to order them.”Bellatrix wanted Hermione to grow up hearing the same stories she and her sisters heard.
“Don’t stay up to late. You will need to get your sleep to have enough energy to get through what’s to come.”Narcissa told her.
“I don’t plan on staying up late. I don’t want to be tired while we are visiting Hermione.”Bellatrix wanted to be at her best when she was around her soulmate.
“See you tomorrow.”Narcissa gave Bellatrix a hug and a kiss on the cheek then made her way out of the room towards her private wing.
“Good night.”Bellatrix called after her as she went in the opposite direction towards the library. Hopefully the books Bellatrix was looking for would be there. She had a dream of Hermione asking her to read the stories to her before she went to bed. Bellatrix would then lay next to the girl and use magic to make the illustrations come to life all the while Hermione would fight to keep her eyes open. That dream wouldn’t come true unless she found the books. Books she wasn’t sure the Malfoy family would have. They weren’t known for their books smarts and Bellatrix had never seen Lucius ever reading anything other than the newspaper. She had actually never seen him use the library more than a handful of times in all the years living with him. Hermione wasn’t going to be like that though. Not if Bellatrix had her way. She wanted Hermione to love books just as much as she did so they could bond over it. That and they could travel the world visiting interesting libraries together. Opening the door to the library Bellatrix sighed. It was so hard having to wait to start living her life now that Hermione was born. It was a struggle every minute of every day not to run to her side. The only thing that stopped Bellatrix was it wasn’t safe yet. Hermione’s safety being her number priority after all.
