Summary
Going into her seventh year of Hogwarts, Bellatrix Black knows what to expect: she's going to finish school (top of her class, obviously), father is going to marry her off (she hopes not to Lucius, because she thinks she'd rather die), and she'll live a relatively unhappy life (not that she can complain about being unhappy if it means she doesn't have to live at home anymore, but that's another thing).
But once she gets there, all of her expectations are thrown out the window. One of father's acquaintances takes an interest to her, opening up opportunities she only could've dreamed of; one of her sisters is dating a mudblood, and the other is dating Lucius, for some reason; and, most importantly, Hogwarts has a new student- one Emma Green. She is an enigma. Someone interesting. And- Bellatrix might like her, just a little bit, not that she would admit that to anyone. As the two grow close, she can tell that Emma is not really who she seems- what is the girl hiding? And will she be able to break out of the path set down for herself, and choose to love instead?
