What monster is this? What creature, what beast, to burn the heart of Black further than it has burned so far?
The rest of the family might go to Hell but she will not stand by and allow this wound to weep and scab. Andromeda has thrown the gauntlet down once too many times and the traitorous whore will pay with the blood of her diseased child.
Bellatrix was not born a boy: more's the pity for the House of Black, but more, so much more, is the pity for her. If she cannot produce heirs with the Black name, let her stay barren. "Bless me with murderous intent," she whispers before she sleeps. Her atrophied pillow is tired of her deedless words.
When the cold sun blows blue through the drapes, Bellatrix rises from corrugated dreams to kill.
