I ashamedly met the cold, piercing gray eyes above me, quickly bowing my head once I realized he was staring down his nose at me.

“How did someone such as yourself, once end up in such a noble house? You’re far worse than any that were in my own.”

With a swish of his cloak he was gone, leaving me alone in the corridor of the rundown manor. The door behind me opened. Relieved, I entered and knelt on the ground before the Dark Lord.

“Ah, Wormtail, you know where the Potter’s live?”

Without looking up, I nodded.

“Godric’s Hollow.”
