[HP] Lost and Returning

Gryffindor girls are never ugly, they have fair skin and family blond hair, and Anastasia is a member of the Gryffindor collateral line, she is beautiful, in her mother's words , on the basis of her appearance, she has a bit of ethereal taste, which makes her look a little different.

Anastasia has never been a girl who pays attention to appearance. She would rather stay in the study and read books or go to the laboratory to see her father's research than spend time putting on makeup. Even so, she is also recognized as a beauty by the clan.And Anastasia has her talent. She is an excellent white magic item maker. With both appearance and strength, she is a natural candidate for the wife of the Gryffindor family.

Anastasia was 14 years old that year. She stood silently beside her parents and did not dare to raise her head. That day was the day when the real head of Gryffindor returned. Dealing with the elders in the audience and the envoys, there was no trace of nervousness or apprehension in his tone. He was obviously the same age as her, but he dealt with everything skillfully and seamlessly.

After leaving the hall, she heard her father sigh and say: "Although the patriarch is young, he is definitely not a thing in the pool."

"Is he very powerful?" As a girl in the clan, Anastasia basically didn't get involved in family affairs. The change of the patriarch was only a rough idea, and the disputes involved were only the tip of the iceberg.

The father didn't answer him, but just patted her head: "You just need to be quiet and obedient."

Duties are divided, husbands and children are the ultimate destination of Gryffindor girls.

Anastasia bit her lips and remained silent. She secretly went to the study to read a book at night. She had a dream. She hoped that one day she could get out of here, look at the outside world, see if the magical creatures in the book existed, and stroked slowly. That thin paper, she thought, was just a dream after all, her whole life was here, she had nowhere to go.

The next day, an elder stepped into the gate of her house and congratulated her on officially becoming the fiancée of the patriarch, and this title would soon become Mrs. Gryffindor. In the clan, only the wife of the patriarch could have such a title.

Her father was very happy, because it meant that their family would be reused, and her mother gently told her to think twice before doing anything, and her husband was the most important thing.

Anastasia nodded sensibly in response one by one, but something was slowly dying deep in her heart.

Now that the marriage has been decided, Anastasia can no longer live in her parents' house. She moved to Gryffindor Castle, where the arrangements have already been made. The gorgeous rooms and rare jewels are all due to the future Mrs. Gryffindor gift.

Anastasia lowered her eyelids and let the door be closed heavily. For a moment, she remembered the illustration in the book, a beautiful canary was locked in a golden cage, what happened to that canary up?Anastasia thought hard, but forgot the ending at the end of the book, forget it, it’s okay not to remember.

Anastasia's life is more limited than before, either in the bedroom or in the courtyard. She once walked into the corridor, but was immediately persuaded to go back by the new maid. She didn't want to spy on anything, but just wanted to read a book , Then, she understood that the study here belongs to the patriarch, not hers, she has to go back to her cage, she has not married him yet.

Godric?Gryffindor, her future husband, but she hadn't seen him since she'd been here, and her memory stuck with the timid glimpse of the day the Chieftain returned, and that memory faded with time.

The wedding was postponed repeatedly, Anastasia didn't know what happened, but she gradually adapted, or passively adapted to this unchanging life. One day two months later, the bored Anastasia left again. Going to the corridor, she was surprised to find that the door of the study room was open, and there was no one guarding it. She was so bored that she said to herself that all she needed was a book, and she needed to read it.

She approached the study lightly, but there was no one there. Anastasia looked at the books on the entire bookshelf and opened her eyes wide. She was ecstatic and carefully flipped through them. There were actually many books introducing magical creatures, and they were all She hadn't seen them before. She held one in her left hand and weighed one in her right. Anastasia didn't know which ones to take.

After an unknown amount of time, a cold, emotionless voice sounded in the room: "Who allowed you to come in?"

Snapped--

The book in Anastasia's hand fell, she turned her head in panic, and that heroic face came into her sight. The blond boy was only half a head taller than her, but he exuded a stern aura all over his body, written all over the words "Do Not Approach". typeface.

"Master Patriarch, this is Miss Anastasia." A wizard following the boy said respectfully.

It's Godric!Anastasia's breathing stopped.

"Just do as I said, you can go down." After the blond boy gave orders, the latter bowed and left knowingly.

Anastasia couldn't speak, her voice was stuck in her throat, she found it difficult to even salute, so she had to bow her head, she didn't dare to look at this person.

"No next time." The boy walked over her to the table and chair in front of him and sat down gracefully, waving his hand to signal her not to make an exception.

Anastasia immediately bowed her knees and backed out. When she returned to the bedroom, her entire back was cold. This man was going to be her husband. He was so indifferent and alienated. The little bit in Anastasia's heart Illusions about love are also shattered.

Three days later, the wedding was finally held in the castle. After the complicated etiquette, she was thrown into the new house alone. The dazzling interior decoration stabbed her heart in disguise. She felt that her life seemed to have come to an end.

On the wedding night, her husband did not show up.

At noon the next day, her husband finally came, without any joy on his face or even looking at her, the ice-cold boy said to her: "I need a wife, that's why you're here .”

Anastasia bowed her head, trying to cover all her expressions with her long hair, she told herself not to be sad, the girls of the Gryffindor family were pawns.

"Restrain your words and deeds, don't cause trouble for me." Her husband walked to a certain cabinet and waved his hand, and the cabinet door opened: "These are for you, all you have to do is to be safe."

Anastasia's eyes lit up, the cabinet was full of books!

From that day on, Anastasia lived in Gryffindor Castle in semi-confinement, and for a while she wondered why her husband never touched him. He needed a wife, didn't he just want to leave blood?Soon, she understood that another purpose of a wife is to win over power.

Anastasia is no longer a child. She listens to everything happening around her with her ears upright. The main family living in Gryffindor Territory is naturally better informed than the collateral. His husband builds up authority step by step to eliminate dissidents, and his methods are extremely decisive and ruthless In the beginning, she could occasionally hear discordant voices in the family, but gradually, they disappeared, and even those people disappeared without a trace.

Time flies, and it has been three years in a blink of an eye.

Anastasia saw Godric not too many times, but she never saw her husband with any other expression. He only had one face, a face that looked at all beings coldly, and he never spoke. Feelings, only the temperature below absolute zero, is so cold.This person has no heart at all.

Suddenly one day, his husband walked into the room and said bluntly: "I don't need a wife now." With the power in hand, the wife's decoration naturally seemed dispensable.

Anastasia was unusually calm at this moment, could this person no longer tolerate her?

"You can leave, I'll treat you as dead." Flat tone.

leave?Anastasia's eyes widened in disbelief, Gryffindor girls are strictly forbidden to go out, this is the family rule.

"Leave, or really die." He said it again lightly, and the blond boy left behind: "No one will guard the gate and the road tonight, you only have this one chance."

Did he really let himself go, or did he wait until he left before killing him?Anastasia thought quickly, then smiled wryly, if he really wanted her dead, it would be faster to kill her directly.

That night, Anastasia successfully escaped from the Gryffindor territory. When she stood on a brand new land, she was overjoyed. She actually had a chance to get out of the cage, and she had a chance to be free!

Anastasia changed her surname, and embarked on a journey to search for various magical creatures with longing. She wanted to see them with her own eyes, and she wanted to keep these truths in her heart.Fortunately, she had received some basic education in the clan. Anastasia tried to avoid dark creatures as much as possible. They were not her longing target.

Four years later, she heard that there was an additional school in the wizarding world, which seemed to be jointly opened by four wizards. She shrugged indifferently. This kind of thing has nothing to do with her. journey.

Anastasia has always traveled alone. After leaving her family, she doesn't have to hide her preferences and interests, which makes her look a little weird, so even if she is a wizard, few people travel with her, and she doesn't like .

Nine years later, Anastasia is 32 years old. She has been able to distinguish various plants and animals proficiently, acts decisively and quickly, is independent and beautiful.
