You can quote, disagree with, glorify or vilify me But about the only thing you can't do is ignore me I could feel those eyes boring into me, feeling me with fear. What was he going to do?
'Now, come home, and you won't feel the pain as much.' said Uncle.
'And what if I don't?' I asked, my stomach doing flips.
'Well, I don't want to say in front of my son.' drawled Uncle, his voice sending shivers down my spine.
'Well, don't. I'm wasting my time here.' I replied with a shaking voice, Remus's hand slipping out of mine as I stepped towards Uncle.
He circled me, like a lion circling his prey.
'Is that fear, I can hear?' he hissed.
'No.' I said bravely, though my heart was pumping like crazy.
'It is. You sound like you when you've been a bad girl and I am punishing you.' said Uncle.
'By punishing her, do mean beating her until she scrams in pain?' said Remus quietly.
'Stay outta this.' said Uncle.
'No. She's my God-Daughter, and I'm going to protect her. I promised.' said Remus, stepping in.
