Title: Never leave Characters: Deidre Greengrass & deranged-lestrange TW: abuse, rape, violence

Dei put her clothes in a bag as her husband raved from the living room about what she had done. He had caught her with muggleborns and one of his Death Eater cronies had almost caught her but he had stopped it. Not because he loved her but because being married to a bloodtraitor was not what was expected. He had assumed it was just a faze but tonight had just proved that it was not. This was now a problem./p>

Dei put her clothes in a bag as her husband raved from the living room about what she had done. He had caught her with muggleborns and one of his Death Eater cronies had almost caught her but her darling husband had stopped it. He had gone to fix himself a drink and sent her to her room like she was a child. Rabastan ranted and rave breaking things Dei decided she had to go. This was not the marriage that she had signed up for; this had not been the man she had married. Dei could hear his feet on the stairs his shouting coming closer to the door until it slammed opened. She didn’t turn to look at her husband but zipped up the bag. “You can stop that shit right now lady. I’m not in the mood for this today, now unpack and pick up the twins!” When he saw she wasn’t listening he pulled her around his nails dug into her pale flesh making her slap him hard around the face. Her anger had no words as she saw Rabastan’s fists clench she knew that this was going to be a fight in likes they had never had before. The first blow connected with her jaw sending her sprawling onto the bed. Lights flashed before her eyes blood dripped from her filling mouth down her clothes, focusing was what was needed right now but it was hard. Rabastan was on punching her again screaming that she would obey him and she shielded her face as he rained blows down on her. Scared now she just wanted to get out she dodged his blow her head moving as she took her fingers and pressed them to his eyeballs. Rabastan screamed out in pain and she pushed him and tried to make it to the door. His hand caught at her pulling at her hair and she attacked him like a wild animal scratching, hitting and punching any part of him she could get to. He soon got his barring and pinned her to the bed by her throat the madness inside him reflected in his eyes. “Time to teach you a lesson.” He said through gritted teeth. He removed his belt and kicked her legs apart his knees between them his face was bleeding but he was smiling so menacingly at Dei that her heart stopped. Each movement she tried to make made his grip on her throat tighter. The belt buckle connected with her skin breaking the flesh causing the scared young woman to cry out over and over again as he got pleasure from it. Soon she was on her stomach and the beating continued as he told her this was what she deserved. Rabastan moved closer to her beads of exertion dripped from his face his tongue darting out licking the side of face as he took her then. Riding her as he came calling a whore telling her she was worthless and only he would have her. No one else would want her. Tears spilled from her eyes as she caught her reflection in the full length mirror, she was too injured to fight him anymore. Rabastan breathed heavily on the back of her neck muttering his pleasure.  Dei felt the wetness on her thighs and prayed she wouldn’t get pregnant, she prayed for the death of her husband and most of all herself. She felt a wave of shame wash over her as tears slipped from her eyes.

“Another baby is what you need; keep you in the house and away from filth.”He zipped up his trousers and Dei could hear his footsteps as he walked away “I wish you wouldn’t make me do this to you Deidre, you know how you provoke me. I will tell your mum that the twins will be staying with her the week and send the house elf up to help your clean up and no more of this leaving talk."He opened the door and paused again "You know it only makes sense this way.”

He took something from me. He took little pieces of me, little pieces over time, so small I didn't even notice, you know? He wanted me to be something I wasn't, and I made myself into what he wanted.

Her fingers trembled when she heard the door opened letting in the frosty winter air into the big silent house. A place that was supposed to be beautiful full of love and laughter was now empty; echoes reverberated off the walls like a forgotten mausoleum

She looked at the smile she had once thought was so charming even a little cheek but all she saw now was malice, hate and an evil sneer of a man she had shared her life with. all caution dashed she flew at him fist clenched and hit every part of him she could her dreams fading like the embers of the fireplace "You couldn't just leave it! He was dead and we were free but you couldn't leave it! They have a child the same age as Liv and Daph and you destroyed them for nothing." her hands dropped as she felt the enormity of what he had done what she had allowed him to do because she had never said a word. 

"I want you out." She said it so quietly that she wasn’t sure if he had heard her. What she had said hung around her and were ringing in her ears, she was tired. At 21 she felt ancient because of the man before her, because she had always hoped he would return to her, that the Rabastan she had known for most of her life would snap out of whatever this was and revert back to what he had been before this war had tainted their world, the one they had hidden in.

"I want you gone Rabastan and if i see your bastard face around here again i will disappear out of this poxy manor I take a oath on my kids you will never see us again." his movement were so fast that she didn't have time to prepare herself, her back slammed against the wall as his hands squeezed her face hard cold blue eyes boring into her own a malice she never thought she would see almost stabbing at her. 

"If you leave I will find you. They are my kids to, if you take them i will kill you Deidre."

Ice slid down her back as she swallowed hard, he let go of her and walked back toward the door. "Well if they are your kid start acting like it!" She picked a framed picture of their wedding day and threw it at him just missing his head, he paused then continued to walk slamming the door behind him, sinking to the floor she caressed her stomach and wondered what would happen to this baby with a father who was so far gone he couldn't see it himself. She was trapped.

The slapped sounded around the room as did the colour of crimson that stained the pales girl’s lips the gasp of her pain and surprise echoed almost quietly but it was deafening to the mother who glared at her daughter. Dark eyes burned holes into her face as she fled from the room dark chocolate curls following her as the door slammed closed her shouts of abuse travelling back knowing she would be heard but it was as if the young girl had stopped caring.

Staggering to the cabinet Deidre pulled out a bottle of Blishen’s Firewhisky and poured into the glass that still held remnants of wine that she had been drinking earlier. Filling the glass she could barely stop her hands from shaking she drank it back a look of hatred marring her once beautiful features.

"She wants to know, she demands to know, she knows nothing little stupid brat just like him, always like him with those eyes and that face just like his, has the bastard name he wanted he to have only to fuck off when he wants. She thinks she has a right? What right does she have? She had no right, the little bitch knows NOTHING!" the glass shattered in her hand blood traced its way down her palm but she didn’t notice, these days unless you were something to drink she didn’t notice you. Taking the bottle she drank staggering onto the chair as the elf came to clean the mess attempted to help her. She didn’t want help, she didn’t need help what she needed was a time turner to go back years so she could have said no to the biggest mistake of her life. Him! her face always darkened when his name was mentioned or when he came to her mind. That man who had destroyed her and the life of his family for some obsession for power. It was all his fault and she wished him dead all the days she still had breath left in her body. She had been young and so stupid thinking that this war would not encompass their lives and when he had begun to change she believed that the man she had fallen in love with, the man she had married was still there instead he had been replaced with a stranger someone she did not know or like and had begun to resent. 

Dei walked out of the door heading outside to the mausoleum that was her home, the cold air hit her bare skin but she didn’t care nothing could hurt her now, she felt like her soul dead crushed beneath the boot of the cursed lord that had left then returned as if telling her daughters of a father they had never had was any good. He just wanted more minions, more young people as shields to die for him just for a cause that was utterly useless. 

Falling to her knees she began to claw at the earth, years of neglect had made this place like a jungle, her hands bled but still she searched until she saw the headstone. The white marble that held the person who would have been seventeen in a few days time, that thought only added to her pain at thirty she had experienced more pain than most and her ever slipping sanity reminded her daily of it.  She slumped to the ground the alcohol sloshing out of the bottle as she laid on her back watching the sky passed her by. 

She had married a Death Eater and survived, he had left her and been imprisoned and she had survived raising three children fingers being pointed at her back and gossip being slung at her family, she had picked up the pieces because what else could she have done. But her boy, her beautiful baby boy losing the spark to her life had driven her over edge. She hadn’t spent one day sober since he had died she didn’t want to be sober because then she wouldn’t be able to remember him and the anguish she felt at forgetting his scent and the exact shade of his eyes.

“Don’t worry Livi, you aren’t alone. Mummy is here to keep the bad things away.”
