48. Unbreakable Vow

“You sound just like Bella and your father.” She shot back icily. It stung to think that I was acting like two of the people I hated both, I was acting like them within the same night, same minute, even seconds.

“Mother, you should know better then to make an Unbreakable Vow with Severus Snape, of all people!” I threw my hands up in frustration, how could she do this to me? How could she not think that I was ready to do the Dark Lord's bidding, I was prepared for this, I wanted revenge.

“You should know better as well, I am in charge of the Manor now.” Narcissa's mouth thinned.

“I am in charge here, I am the man of the house now.” I spat at her. “Get out of this room, now.”
