A cold dawn seeps through the heavy drapes of the townhouse on Grimmauld Place. Inside Bellatrix’s room, submerged in semi-darkness, silence reigns. On the wide, dark bed sleeps a younger sister, curled tightly against Bella. Suddenly the door cracks open. Andromeda and Narcissa slip inside, their silhouettes melting softly into the shadows. Cissy settles onto the bed, her pale blonde hair spilling across the pillow. Bellatrix, her eyes still shut, gives a low, quiet laugh, sensing the nightmare that grips her sister.
