Tom POV
I watched as Abraxas brought in a witch from Philip Livingston's group, my group of loyal death eaters sneering at her. "So this is the woman that's been staring at my wife in such a way. I remember you from our Hogwarts days."
Serena Lestrange couldn't get a word out, probably due to the long hours of torture.
"You're still jealous of my wife, despite having been married to Adolfus Lestrange and having a son?" I looked at her with disgust. "You're a disgrace to the name of magic. You dare join Philip's group as your family and husband devote themselves to my cause?"
"I apologize, my lord-" Adolfus started.
"SILENCE!" I pointed my wand at him. "You will be the one to kill her, not me. Show me your loyalty, Adolfus. Your wife is a traitor."
Cygnus Malfoy-Livintston stared at the man with hatred. "We trusted you, Adolfus. Your negligence almost killed my daughter, you knew Serena hated her. Unrequited love is a sad thing, until it drives someone to kill another. But everyone knows not to mess with the dark lord's wife, my own daughter." Cygnus looked at me. "My lord, please. Let me kill her."
I looked at my mother-in-law with approval. "I admire your bloodlust, Cygnus, but your son leads our enemies. Your task is to kill him. But with Adolfus, you two may punish Serena until I give word to kill her. I might just kill her myself."
Nagini hissed at my side and I noticed a shadow in the doorway of the basement where we held the meeting. I gave Abraxas a look and he vanished.
I pointed my wand to Serena who was floating and turned her. "Speak."
She must've sensed the danger in the situation. "She is weak! Your wife has done nothing for your cause, my lord! I only joined Philip Livingston's group to kill her so you'd have the chance to be with me! I've loved you since I saw you, all she does is bitch."
"So you married Adolfus without loving him?" I gave Adolfus a look of pity. "And even sired a child with him. Yet your heart wavers to me, your true love?"
"Yes!" She looked relieved when I let her down and got on her knees, pleading her case. "When she's gone, I'll be your perfect wife, or I don't even have to kill her! I know she makes you annoyed, please use me as you see fit!"
Cygnus looked as if she was about to murder Serena but was held back by her brother who was watching in amusement but with disgust towards Serena.
"Then you should see how much I love my wife and family," I waved my wand. "Watch through my memories as I fuck her. How I love her, how I gave her our two boys. My thoughts about her."
I knew the quickest way to kill someone without killing them is to show them their worst fears, which was evident in this case. No one but Serena saw my memories, but they saw her screaming and thrashing around. I nodded to Adolfus and he placed the crucitus curse on her, inflicting more pain and her screams.
