"Smart move." I smirk.

I resist the urge to say something, and just sink to the ground, breathing heavily.

I look at her a moment, thinking, now? Or later?
Now.
"MarilynMadeline, I have something to show you." I grin.

"No, it's very important. I have two things for you to know actually, but one of them I'll keep to myself for later use." I smirk, then sit cross-legged on the floor, waving my wand over the grass in front of me, producing five or six photo's face down then motion for her to sit down opposite me.

I look at him wearily, then sit down opposite him, against my better judement."What?"

I hand her the first photo face up. A little girl, burnt and cut up, with her throat slit, "That is your cousin's daughter." I tell her, "And we know who did that."
"I'm not sure if you're aware," I say after a pause, "But killers, tend to stick to a pattern when they kill. Always in the same way."
I turn the other photo's so they're face up, all people burnt and cut up, with their throats slit, "I'm not sure if you're aware of this either, but your boyfriend and I struck a deal so that you, and your kid there, would remain okay. I just wanted to let you know how far he's willing to go to do that." I smirk.

I feel my face drain as I look onto Jennie's photo. A hand rushes to my mouth before a small gasp escaped my lips. My eyes scan the other photo's that sick feeling rushing up in my stomach as I look over all them. I could hear the screaming in my head...the blood everywhere...the shouts of pain...

The memories were flooded back, I could feel myself start to tremble at the thought.
The scream ringing in my head...I could still remember the day I'd found my mother's body..

"Your mother was in a condition like that," I nod at the photo, "Wonder why that might be."

"Fine, I won't. I was just wondering, how much do you really know? I mean, you know that he's done some bad things, you know he used to be just like me, worse than me, but do you know who suffered? Who the victim's were? Blood traitors. He had a thing about blood traitors. Your cousin's kid, your parents...lot's more besides." I shrug, "I know a lot of things about him. Things he wants to keep from you. Like just who he's tortured and killed, and I know lot's of trivial secrets too. Like he's planning on leaving you here. Him and my useless brother are going off again as soon as possible. He's still cheating on you as well."

I felt as if I had been stabbed in the heart. I could honestly feel it breaking, I look down blinking rapidly to stop the tears from coming,"What..? No...he wouldn't do that..."
How do you know? Wouldn't put it past him..

I don't say anything, just watch her.
For once, everything I'd said had been true.
I almost felt bad for her.
Almost.

I look back up at him after a moment,trying to stop my hands from shaking."Tell me everything you know Logan." I say quietly after a moment,"I want to know what's so fucking important he needs to keep it from me."

"Fine. We were travelling, there was about six of us. All death eaters, all just like me, just like him. All on the run, but still taking rders. The both of us had just turned 16, rest of them were all a year younger, so we took the order that came through to eliminate all the blood traitors we possibly could in the area. It went out to other groups as well so more would get done that way. Rowan and Will, did our research, got us a list. So we followed it, getting rid of them as we were instructed. Michael and Liam took half the list. Me and Ian took the other half. The Speares were on ours. It was just an order, so we did it. We were gonna go after you, too, but I think it might have been him that stopped me. Said you were just a kid, there was no point. So we left you alone, carried on our way, went down to the coast I think." I shrug, smirk absent for once, "That's what happened. It was an order, we did it."

"It was you?" I whisper tears pricking my eyes again,"You..he...my mum..."
MUM!!
I could still hear the screaming in my head.
"My da? What....they never found his body...did you..."

"I don't know about him. It took more than us two to take him down. Another group from the area came to our aid, we left them with the body."

"Oh god.." I brought my legs up to my chest."You..and him...you were the ones who killed my mum?" I ask, my voice trembling."But...why? Why leave me?! Couldn't you killed me?! I rather have died with them then live without them!"

I shrug, "I was all for killing you too. He was the one that spared you. 'No Logan, she's just a kid. Leave her alone. Order wasn't for her.'" I lie back down on the ground, "Couple of months later, he started going odd. It was Row, I think. Made him go odd. Put weird idea's into his head. So we got rid of her too. Started paying her visits. But she was hard to break, stuck with him the whole time, had to force her to fake her death in the end. He stayed away from us for a couple of days, but he came back. Started taking orders with us again. Wasn't the same though. He was never quite the same. Started trying to talk us out of shit, managed to talk my useless brother out of it, and he left us in the middle of the night. Never found him til he turned up here. Ian stayed though, trying to talk the rest of us out of it. Then it's the middle of the night, wake up and the whole place is on fire, Liam and Michael both dead, I've got a massive curse scar where he obviously tried to do me in as well, Rowan's scarpered, Ian's long gone. That's what happened."

"I was fifteen! That's not a kid!" I yell,"Fucking...so he kills my family, then decided to fall in love with me?!" I run a hand through my hair,"He doesn't love me, does he?"

"I don't know." I answer.
I knew it would hurt her more to say no, but I wasn't sure, and so far I'd been honest. Why break that now?
"I've seen what he'll do, how far he'll go to protect you. I know that he would sacrifice himself in a heartbeat to save you, because I nearly did kill him when he offered and he didn't run or tell me to stop. I stopped of my own accord because I thought of a better deal we could make and he did it. He sold his soul for you." I say, "But on the other hand, he lies. He lies to you, he's cheated on you at least three times, and as far as I can gather him and my useless brother are planning 'mission apocalypse' and then they're going to run."

"If I was you I'd would have just said no." I say looking back down,"It's an act, that's all it's been. He doesn't love me, and if he does..I don't. I don't love him, not anymore." I say keeping my voice from tremble,"He can run, I don't give a flying fuck, not anymore."

It became very hard not to smirk now, but I managed.
"His loss." I shrug.
I was going to enjoy what this was going to do to him.

"Yeah." I mutter getting up and walking away, not caring if Logan saw me cry anymore.
Not caring about anything.
"We're done here." I say, and continue back to the castle, not once turning around.
