She raised her palms to her temples as though about to perform a Jedi mind trick, but she rubbed her palms in circles, trying to calm the storm in her head. She was rather exposed at the moment- and not because her clothing had been ripped in several places. No, what choice did she have but to deliver the truth?
She covered her eyes with the heels of her palms before she said, "I left my husband." She dropped her hands heavily into her lap. "Actually, I promised to get him thrown in Azkaban. Y'know Felix Barker? Of course you do, everyone does. However, I go out every month and mutilate muggles, pillage here and there, eat some livestock, and he's the favorite. He's Ministry's Number One right now. You know where I am? Nine. NINE." She scoffed.
"Felix cheated on me with one of the girls he captured, and I'm sure she's not the first. See, he captured me. But he never laid a hand on me." She was now looking at one of the lanterns in the pub, staring intently at it. "I spurned him and though he kept me, he didn't lay a hand on me. He bought me things. He respected me. We spoke, we bantered, and I fell for him." Her reverie was broken and she looked down. "Stupid. I wasn't good enough for my father, making my pathetic, muggleborn-loving brother heir while I was doing his work... And I helped Felix and got all of the discomfort with no perks but his promises. He promised me we'd stop running one day. No torture, no murder, just us and our dog, somewhere secluded and nice. Maybe a kid. I dunno- the things that make a life."
She sighed. "But I f*cked it up," was her simple explanation. "I could've had that, but never with him. I trusted the man who kidnapped me. Don't muggles have a term for that? Stockholm Syndrome or something? I let myself murder, torture, and destroy... all to impress a man who never could have really loved me. And now what can I do? Chase him down until I'm thrown in Azkaban?" She shrugged. "That or until I'm dead, I suppose."
