I'm a bit late to the party here, but oooooh, this is fantastic! You set the tone perfectly right from the start. That opening paragraph is just so very Voldemort! He would loathe having any sort of weakness and would never want to let anyone know what it was.

He would tell her, perhaps, one day. He would love to watch the anger flash in her eyes, igniting that spark of madness, when she found out the real reasons why he sought her out.
