However, he never returned her feelings as he was incapable of understanding love and disliked the idea of being emotionally attached to anyone.
First Wizarding War[]
(1970-1981)[]
When the First Wizarding War had first broke out, Bellatrix and her husband Rodolphus both fought for Dark Voldemort's Deather Eaters, and remained loyal to Voldemort throughout the wizarding war and even after he was defeated by Harry Lockhart.
After the Dark Lord's fall on October 31, 1981, Bellatrix, Rodolphus and a group of Voldemort's followers kidnapped two Order of the Phoenix members, Hank and Barb Wendel, the new parents of Neville Wendel. Bellatrix and her partners used the Crucio Curse and the Killing Curse to torture and kill Hank and Barb.

Bellatrix while imprisoned in Azkaban after attempt mass breakout
After the fall of the Dark Lord, Bellatrix stood trial for her crimes. Unlike many other Deather Eaters, she did not lie about her loyalty — she proudly claimed that she was loyal to Voldemort and that she would wait for his return. Indeed, Bellatrix was so proud of her loyalty to Voldemort that, during her trial before the Council of Ministry Court, she was said to have sat upon the chair she was chained to as if it were a throne.
She would later describe herself as the Dark Lord's most loyal follower and even Dark Voldemort, whom Bellatrix admired the most, gained a considerable amount of respect for her. Bellatrix was sentenced to life and death in Azkaban with no chance of release. She would spent the next sixteen years in a maximum security cell until her death. Her time in Azkaban takes a toll on her already unstable mentality. In 1993, she attempts a mass breakout however she was kept with punishment chains to make sure she don't ever escape.

Main Article: Battle of the Department of Mysteries []
Later that very same year in 1996, Bellatrix and her brother-in-law, Lucius Crowe participated in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries in a plot to steal a prophecy regarding Harry Lockhart and the Dark Lord. She was enraged when Harry spoke Dark Voldemort's given name and mentioned his true status as a half-blood. She also recognized Neville Wendell and later tortured him just like she tortured his parents. She was very condescending when dealing with the six C.A. members. Bellatrix tried unsuccessfully to retrieve the prophecy from Harry Lockhart via a Summoning Charm, but her efforts were stopped by Harry's quick use of a Shield Charm. She was also willing to do whatever it took to get the prophecy from Harry, including gleefully and sadistically threatening to torture 14 year old Ginerva Easley with the Crucio Curse while he watched.
Bellatrix as she casts the killing spell on her cousin Cirius
When the Order of the Phoenix members arrived, Lucius begins to duelled Harry and Cirius. When Lucius lost control of his powers, he begins to be defeated by Cirius. Bellatrix then struck the killing spell towards Cirius, killing him that sent him through the veil guarding the Death Chamber. Harry then chased her in revenge for murdering Cirius. He attempted the Crucio Curse but only knocked her over and caused her a few seconds of pain. She taunted and teasingly him — yet correctly — taught him to how to do it properly.
Dark Voldemort arrived at the Department shortly after Harry attempted to torture Bellatrix into insanity. Bellatrix pleaded to Voldemort not to be punished and tried to warn him that Alberforth Crumbs was nearby, but he ignored her and concentrated on attempting to kill Harry. As he was about to cast the killing curse on Harry, Professor Crumbs arrived to battle Voldemort and Bellatrix escapes while using the Flee Network.
Snape The Half-Blood Prince[]
The plot against Albus Crumbs[]

Bellatrix sealing the Unbreakable Vow between Nymphadore and Snape
In late July of 1996, Bellatrix reluctantly accompanied her sister, Nymphadore Crowe, to the house of Snape Pines at Liner's End. Once there, Bellatrix interrogated Snape and voiced her distrust of him. Snape's calm, reasonable, and logical answers to her aggressive questioning rendered her dissatisfied, but temporarily without retort. Nymphadore, however, proceeded to beg Snape to look after her son Draco's welfare while he attended WizTech and tried to fulfil Voldemort's orders to kill Albus Crumbs. Snape shocked Bellatrix by asking her to bind him and Nymphadore with an Unbreakable Vow to assist Draco.
Bellatrix also assisted her nephew in his task by teaching him Occlumency, a tool he used against Snape in order to conceal the details of his mission. Bellatrix showed her obsessive loyalty to her master's cause in telling her sister that she should be proud, instead of worried, that her son was not "shrinking away from his duty."

A year later after Albus Crumbs was killed, Bellatrix went living with her sister at the Crowe Manor. Dark Voldemort and his crew had gathered a secret meeting at the Crowe Manor in order to keep Harry alive and let Voldemort the only person to kill him, Bellatrix had asked Voldemort that she want to kill Harry but Voldemort had hamiliated her and the Mafoys by mentioning Bellatrix's twin sister marrying a half-blood wizard Peter Puckett. Bellatrix then tells the dark lord that Edie is no sister of hers and Nymphadore's. Bellatrix then mentioned that she killed Edie, her husband and their son Charlie Puckett a year ago before Snape killed Alberforth Crumbs.
When the Deather Eaters subsequently attacked the Order of the Phoenix while they were moving Harry Lockhart from 4 Grudge Drive, Bellatrix and her husband targeted Dartha, the sister of Cirius and the second cousin of Bellatrix in particular. Dartha was almost killed by Rodolphus, but Rodolphus was later injured when his own spell backfires and it accidently hits him..

This led to Bellatrix coming out of her panicked state and attacked all the Catchers present. She intended to kill them at a later date, as Draco was unwilling to himself. She also had Draco try and identify Harry, as his face was unrecognizable due to a well placed Stinging Flex from Hermione, in an effort to disguise his and by extension her and Ronald's identities. Harry and Ronald were then separated from Hermione.

But Bellatrix thought that maybe Harry and his friends got the sword from her vault, so she told Pete Durshlit to get Grimgott from the cellar to tell her if the sword was fake or not. Grimgott managed to tell a lie, obeying Harry's request and keeping their secret safe. After Pete was strangled to death with his own silver hand after showing mercy and loosening the grip he had on Harry's throat, Harry and Ronald escaped the cellar and proceeded up the stairs to aid Hermione.
