Draco had to wonder if this version of his mother cared. He supposed that she really shouldn't, at least not at this age. "He almost killed me. He marked me when I was sixteen and gave me an assignment to kill the headmaster of Hogwarts. You made an unbreakable vow with Severus Snape to protect me. He did that, although he might have anyway."
"The dark lord said that if I failed, he would have killed you and my father. The following year, he moved into our home. He used me to torture prisoners to practice my unforgivables. I was so happy when it was over, when he was dead." Draco looked up at his mother and put on a smile. That life was over and had been for years.
"Our reputation was badly damaged. I have tried to rebuild it as best I could. It hasn't been easy."
