"Bring my consort back to me Severus and you will be a free man. "

"You are dismissed. "

Snapes POV.

It had been more than a week already and I had yet to decide what I had to do . I had to confess to myself that I was still in a bit of shock. I never knew that Lord Voldemort could feel any kind of emotions such as love,affection or worry for anything let alone someone else .

I did not know what to do .Hadrian is my Godson . Lucius had made me Godfather to all three of the triplets ,and remembering the Day that Lucius told me that Hadrian had died of Dragonpox was one of the worst days I remember experiencing . I would sometimes sit alone in my chambers and think about those big curious green eyes that would look at everything in wonder and awe . The little boy who could not hurt a fly even if he was forced .

I do no know what I would have done if i knew that Hadrian was still alive , I probably would not have gone on the mission in the first place and taken him from Voldemort .

Another concerning matter , Voldemort and Hadrian were in a ......physical and intimate relationship . I did not know how to feel about that ,he is after all the same age as Draco and many of my other students , he should not have to be forced into something like that,then again what if he was not forced .

If Lucius said that Hadrian had died i do not want to know how he was treated while living with the Malfoys . Sighing i shot my glass of Whiskey back and stood up from my chair ,making my way towards the fireplace . Quickly stepping through the Floo I stepped out through the other side into Grimmuld place .

Looking around I was thankful that no one was around and made my way upstairs . The house was quite so I assumed that everyone was either out or asleep ,a stupid thing to do if you are holding someone hostage .  

Locating Hadrian's room was easy and i gently knocked onto the door . No response , I raised my hand to knock again still no response , raising my hand again I was about to knock again but instead I opened the door peering inside to see that no one was inside .

Trying not  to panic i walked down the hall towards the kitchen but it was empty as well , the attic and dueling rooms as well ad the potions room was empty as well . The only other option was the library but surely Black would have locked the room instead of leaving it open for a teenager who is from the dark side to research forbidden things .

Peering into the library. The thought that Black really was an idiot ran through my head . From he door i could see a pair of small bare feet hanging over the edge of the armchair he was occupied in .

Making my way inside I opened my mouth to talk but stopped when i realised that Hadrian was asleep . A book , Fantastic beast and where to find them  was laying across his chest . His hair partly covered his face and he just looked so ...young and innocent .

I sat down in the armchair opposite his and started at him . How could something so innocent capture the interest of the Dark Lord , it didn't make sense . But remembering Voldemorts reaction to when Hadrian went missing I couldn't deny that Hadrian was someone important to the Dark Lord .

One thing was sure though , if I did not get Hadrian back to The Dark Lord soon ,War would come .
