Chapter 57: 'Gaining' an Ally!

{Rigel's room, Slytherin Dorm, Hogwarts}

{4th Sep 1991}

{3rd Person POV}

"The Dark Lord is alive?" Rita blurted as she walked out of the wardrobe. Her earlier dissatisfaction at not seeing Narcissa treated a bit more roughly was pushed aside because of the conversation she had heard just now.

'The Dark Lord's Diary, his Locket, the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets...' The mention of any one of these events or items could become a blockbuster story in itself, but the way these secrets were casually mentioned by Rigel boggled her mind.

The thought that Rigel knew a lot more than he should once again popped into her mind as she waited for his response. 

"Of course he's alive, he's in a state of half-dead spirit state, but he hasn't departed from our world yet, and if my guess is right, he won't be dying anytime soon..." Rigel responded, unlike his usual casual way of going through conversation, Rita noticed he was absolutely serious about this topic. From as far as she could tell, he had been very serious since Narcissa threatened him.

'Though he does not seem to be worried about her threat...' Rita guessed.

"So he can come back alive?" Rita asked her voice a mixture of fear and revulsion. 

Rigel looked at her a little confused, he knew she was a Slytherin and mixed well with the socialites of the Wizarding World. Even her bio said she was a batchmate of Bellatrix Lestrange and was influenced by arguments of pureblood supremacy. 

"It's not a question of an 'if' but rather 'when'," Rigel replied. He looked back at his door and then continued, "Don't mention anything about him for now, there is still time to delay his return, and if his faithful don't know that he's alive it would go a long way."

Rigel sighed and sat down, for now, he needed a new plan and he still needed to make do with an old one. The escape of Pettigrew was something that he could not allow to happen, so first of all he needed to deal with that.

"Alright, I need your help with something," Rigel spoke as he stood up and walked over to his desk, he pulled out a roll of parchment from his backpack and a self-inking quill.

"I need you to find anything that can trap an animagus," Rigel started, "...It's not for you, there is another animagus hiding in Hogwarts, don't mention anything about it for now, I have a juicy story for you later." Rigel continued as he scribbled the basic requirement on a piece of paper. 

"Also I need a larger trunk, I should have bought the 7-compartment one earlier but I decided to cheap out..." Rigel muttered as he looked at the list, and then he decided to add the diagram of a simple rat cage.

"There is an animagus hiding in Hogwarts? Why would someone hide here, is it because of the school library?" Rita asked, being an animagus herself she could understand how difficult it was to stay as one for an extended duration of time. 

"No he's a dark wizard from Voldemort's side," Rigel replied as he gave her the list. It was a small errand but he needed this as soon as possible. Rigel wanted to capture crabbers as soon as possible and considering he hadn't even begun on the threshold of runes, creating a new runic scheme to trap scabbers like his original plan doesn't seem likely.

He looked as if Rita was still hesitating so he further elaborated, "Trust me we are more helpful to each other as allies rather than enemies. Plus I could get you an exclusive interview with a death eater and a man who is currently believed to be dead, think about the headlines..." Rigel enticed getting a glare from Rita.

"Fine," Rita agreed as she sighed, for better or for worse she knew that she was stuck with him for now. At least this gave her a unique opportunity to bargain for more information on how Rigel was able to sniff her out.

"Thanks, was there anything else?" Rigel asked and Rita blushed slightly, she was hoping that like last time Narcissa would end up on her knees and she could enjoy herself again but she was too embarrassed to actually ask to be fucked. She shook her head and immediately transformed into her animagus form.

Rigel chuckled slightly as he grabbed his bag, meanwhile, Rita once again slipped into his robe pocket. He was heading for the Library and since Daphne would still be there he could ask some questions about Potions. He walked out of his room and went toward the entrance of the common room.

{4rd Sep 1991} 

{3rd Person POV}

Through a whirl of flames, Narcissa walked out, she had hurried out of Rigel's room and slipped into Draco's room. After that, she used Severus's fireplace to floo back home all the while she stewed on what Rigel had said.

'He was pretty confident in the Dark Lord being alive...' Narcissa thought and a grimace made its way onto her face. The time when Lucuis served as a circus crew with other masked crusaders was the worst time she could remember. She didn't have any freedom and even the financials of House Malfoy were under the Dark Lord's control.

The Death Eater raids were also the start of Lucius's promiscuous days. Before then he was entirely wrapped around in her grasp but even years after his 'death' Lucius and the rest of the Purebloods Lords have gotten used to their sadistic sides. Narcissa barely recognized this Lucius, the man she married was far different from what he is today. He is still smart and cunning but his main focus is not on the ascension of House Malfoy anymore.

'Though maybe it is, with Rigel's allegations he is slowly edging me out from the decisions while thinking about swallowing the fortunes and political power of House Black.' The thought popped into Narcissa's head as she walked toward Lucius's office.

She walked through the door without a knock and immediately noticed that something was off. Lucious was working on the document like always but his face was flushed, from the distracted look in her eyes she could tell that the muggle-born whore was down there underneath his table.

'You've got to be kidding me...'

Chapter 58: Narcissa's plight! ~Light NSFW~

{Main Office, Malfoy Manor, Unplottable}

{4rd Sep 1991} 

{3rd Person POV}

"What happened hun, did you go somewhere, I didn't know there was supposed to be a party today," Lucius spoke as he tried to maintain a straight face. His hand reached down and grabbed a fistful of Cindy's hair, his cock throbbed, and it pulsed in her throat as he looked at Narcissa. 

"I went to talk to Rita regarding the articles that she had published, did you talk to her yet?" Narcissa asked as she maintained her stoic face. Anger was slowly building up in her, but she kept on pushing it down for now. Still, her hand trembled.

"Don't worry about those rumors dear, I talked to the manager at Daily Prophet, she won't be publishing any more of those articles," Lucius replied as he slowly pushed Cindy back. The tightness of her throat was enthralling right now, and Lucius wanted to ignore Narcissa and focus on his own orgasm.

"Alright, I did get some info from Rita though, Rigel Black is the one who has something on her, so for the time being she won't be able to help us." Narcissa continued the conversation, and even though she wanted to storm out or curse her bastard husband, she needed the name right now if she wanted to make a deal with Rigel.

Lucius frowned, her attention shifted from Cindy's tight throat as he stopped pulling the muggle-born by her hair, pushing his cock deeper into her mouth. This conversation was a lot more important, he didn't know how Rigel got any information about Father's plan but at least it seems Narcissa believes it was all a hoax.

He shifted in his chair slightly and spoke, "It seems like he is as smart as you described, though how he was able to push Rita to push those false stories is a bit beyond me." 

Lucius spoke, he patted Cindy's head indicating for her to stay hidden, "For now our plan remains unchanged, I'm pretty sure the Dark Lord said that the Diary could bring destruction and cleanse Hogwart of mud blood filth..." He tightened his grip on Cindy's hair causing the brown-haired teen to gulp. The sensations of pleasure overwhelmed him a little as he sat there in a daze for a moment before his eyes fell on Narcissa's stoic face.

Lucius let go of Cindy's hair as he shifted in his chair and continued, "...With Rigel now revealed as a Parselmouth it would be easy to blame him for this, I need to talk to Fudge at an appropriate time. Plus with the escape of Sirius, he's already stretched thin so some donation to the Auror department should do the job."

Lucius smiled at Narcissa and the blond nodded. Narcissa half turned away, seemingly about to go away when she paused and spoke, "Who did you ultimately plant the Diary on, If he's in Slytherin I could supplement the confundus you placed on him to target and frame Rigel whenever I go to Hogwarts. I need to go there to gather a bunch of stuff Draco left behind."

Lucius gave Narcissa a searching look before he shook his head, "He's not in Slytherin, it doesn't matter if he targets Rigel, as long as a couple of Muggle-borns are harmed you could entice the other governors to expel Rigel, and I'll do the rest." 

Lucius gave Narcissa a smile at which she nodded and walked out of the room, she closed the door behind her and her stoic facade broke down. She looked back at the door in anger and frustration. It had been a bad day for her and now she was stuck. What should she do, Lucius was shutting her out of the process so it looked like the articles were true, and from the looks of things, there was nothing to be gained by confronting him. He would just turtle up and make things difficult for her. She needed an escape plan.

At least this way she could play both sides until she gets something she wants. Narcissa walked away, the thought of getting Draco on her side didn't even cross her mind as with years of manipulation, Lucius had managed to shut her off from his life completely. Though with Rigel's dressing down, Draco had calmed down so maybe there was a chance, but not enough that she would want to bank her luck on it.

At least her next option was quite clear, Lucius had lied just now when he said that the carrier of the Diary wasn't in Slytherin, so she had some information to bargain with Rigel. A seed of resentment and hatred began to bloom in her heart at the thought of Lucius blatantly making a mockery of their wedding.

'I better be prepared this time, he had taken the initiative too many times...'

{Library, Hogwarts}

{4rd Sep 1991} 

{3rd Person POV}

Rigel walked through the doors of the Library after Rita left, the reveal that the Diary of Tom Riddle was with someone made him focus all his mana sense on the students that he passed on the way there. Until now he had no luck though and other than getting an idea of the mana reserves of the school his search was futile. 

'Scanning like this won't work though, I don't know how the Diary feels like to my senses, it should be similar to Harry's horcrux...' Rigel thought as he found Daphne. She was sitting with a massive tome that looked rather old though what was interesting was the name that was hovering behind her.

...

[Hermione Granger lv-2]

...

"What are you studying?" Rigel whispered and watched in amusement as Daphne jumped up in surprise and then turned to glare at him. Rigel put his index finger on his lips as he sat down in front of her.

"I'm just catching up on some potion ingredients and their reaction with each other," Daphne replied.

Rigel looked at the small notebook beside her that was full of notes. He looked at her curiously and asked, "How far ahead are you really?" 

"I can brew most potions in Hogwarts curriculum," Daphne replied, her attention had now shifted to Rigel as he placed his backpack on the table.

"And I noticed you didn't follow the exact same instructions as described by the book," Rigel pointed out. 

During the whole lecture Rigel had maintained his distance as he watched Daphne work, Potion making was a lot more interesting than he was expecting with his mana senses pinging from overload as each ingredient had in store a large amount of mana in them. With Daphne being so proficient in the subject he knew he would get more clear answers from her.
