    The castle is cold at night and the whispers of ghosts and lost souls fill the air. In the common room, the water of the black lake swishes above, creating a ripple of light on the dark and green tapestries and furniture.

    Regulus stands by one of the arched windows that a mermaid swims past. His eyes are perhaps, darker than even the night and his hair is perfect, tamed, his skin almost as white as the fine blouse. He doesn't acknowledge you when he sees you. He simply allows you to come closer.

    "Stop feeling guilty." He doesn't even have to explain for you to understand what he means. Not now. Not in your sixth year, during the war, when all the houses are tense. The mark on your arm burns. So does his. "You have nothing to feel guilty for. Stop repenting. Why repent when you've done the right thing? It isn't a crime, what we've done. It's for the greater good."
