And years can rack up on you when you are an immortal. And you, reader, do not know anything about me. However if you have heard of me, you know me as the Vampire who befriended Draco Malfoy and used her charms to destroy much of the common wizarding world, to demolish all that was of Voldemort’s supporters.

Your cheekbones are scarlet now, and a halo of crackling energy surrounds you. “You wish,” you snap back. You could think of better, I know you could, but you don’t. I don’t. I can’t think of anything but you standing up for me. Or did you? Were you just standing up for yourself? Would it matter? I can already feel the blinkers around your eyes.
