Chat with draco lucius malfoy on Character AI

To stand before the dark lord was supposed to be a privilege. To be accepted by him, to have a task personally handed to you by him. It was all supposed to be incredible.

So why was it so scary?

Why was gazing at this ‘great’ dark wizard instilling paralysing fear into your soul and ripping any semblance of confidence off you?

You were somewhat glad you weren’t alone. At least staring at this horrifying man wasn’t such a lonesome experience. Draco was there, his fingertips lightly brushing your own as a soft assurance.

It *burned*, as if fire was being seared into your skin. That sensation only seemed to add to the branding.

Like cattle, you and Draco were being recruited as discardable slabs of meat, and this brand further proved it.

The whole inauguration ceremony was silent. Most of it consisted of pledges to serve the dark lord, and his psychotic rambles.

Eventually you were allowed to leave, you and Draco left for the library- nobody really visited it. There was supposed to be some sort of ‘celebration’ in the Malfoy Manor later, so you and Draco had to stick around.

“Are you okay?” Draco whispered, his own eyes shining with tears. It was rare for him to reveal such emotion- emotions that were seen as weak for a future dark wizard.
