Light and Dark | Part 22
Summary: Your sweetheart boyfriend, James Potter, can’t seem to hide his feelings for a certain beautiful redhead - who’s not you. Meanwhile, there’s a strange Slytherin boy, Cyrille Lestrange, famed even among purebloods for his lineage and inheritance, whose silver eyes somehow seem to always find you. [Multi-Post Story] [James Potter x Reader] [Cyrille Lestrange x Reader] [Warning: Story Contains Explicit Smut.] [Warning: Rough Sex.] [Warning: Cheating; Voyeurism.] [Warning: Prostitution.] [Warning: Dom-Sub Dynamic.] [Warning: Degradation.] [Warning: Choking.] I want to say explicitly that this is fantasy. Any harassing and/or non-consensual behavior is totally unacceptable in reality. Illegal behavior (such as prostitution) is also totally unacceptable in reality. And of course, in reality, loving someone should not translate into taking unpleasurable/unwanted pain from that person, or anyone else. *Finally, please do not repost or copy my work without my permission. Thank You!

Chapter-Specific Note: The warning above states “Cheating.” Specifically, this chapter contains cheating on you, the Reader. (Though, it could arguably be dependent on your definition of cheating, but that’s a different conversation.) As with all warnings (including the additional warning for “Prostitution” in this very chapter), if this will upset you / is not your thing, please skip this chapter. I am posting two chapters (Chapters 22 & 23) immediately so that you can skip ahead if you need to. There is reference to things that happen in this chapter in the following chapters (including the cheating), but it’s not strictly essential plot-wise.
“And what would you require in return for your sponsorship?” Rodolphus Lestrange asked the woman standing before him. “What would secure your commitment?”
The woman, dressed in the most luxurious silk and wearing delicate lace gloves, gave a mysterious smile. Her eyes wandered around the room as she murmured, “What indeed? What would secure the commitment of one of the richest women in the world?”
Your dead husbands’ money, everyone thought, but no one dared to say it aloud, for she was none other than Alina Zabini, famously beautiful, and now, one of the richest women in the world. Finally, her eyes landed on Cyrille, who was standing at the very back of the room. His posture was impeccable, head held up high, shoulders back, but his eyes were downcast. Hm, Alina thought to herself.
Finally, she said, “Fortunately, your youngest has caught my attention. Some time spent with him might… fortify my dedication to the Dark Lord.”
Rodolphus looked over at Cyrille. Cyrille had looked up, surprised to hear his name in this discussion. But he instantly understood. Cyrille merely sighed and looked away again, his jaw now clenched in anger.
Rodolphus nodded. “Fine,” he said callously. “That can be arranged.”

You snuck into the Lestrange estate, right behind Moody. Following you were Dorcas and Remus.
“All right,” Moody whispered to the three of you. “We’re in and out in eighteen minutes, got it? That fancy little spellwork I did back there tricked the defense and alarm system, but it��ll only do so for about twenty minutes, after which we will be detected, and we haven’t much of a chance of defeating the Lestranges on their own grounds.”
You pulled out your watch and checked the time. “So, we gather back here at 19:18?”
Moody nodded. Then, he said gruffly, “Right, normally, we’d partner up for safety, but because of the limit time, we’re all on our own. Good luck. Remember – we’re here for the roster, nothing more. Don’t be seen.”
Just then, a voice sounded out from nearby. “… with her sponsorship, we’ll be able to take down the Ministry, I wager.”
“Yes, but we must be careful…”
The four of you froze. The voices were coming closer.
Moody stared at all of you. Then, he whispered, “Constant vigilance. Let’s go!”
With that, the four of you all scurried off in your own directions. Your heart was thudding. Not just because of how risky the mission was, but because of where you were – the Lestrange estate. The thought that you might run into and possibly have to fight Cyrille made you so incredibly nervous. And then there was a thought that made you even more nervous than fighting Cyrille, a thought that literally made your heart stutter with anxiety, and that was the thought of telling Cyrille what had happened… what had happened that night after the two of you had made such desperate and wanting love in the boathouse, devouring each other so feverishly as to mark your love for one another on each other’s bodies for the years to come… You swallowed hard.
Actually, you weren’t supposed to be on this mission at all. But after Marlene got hurt last week in battle, and both Lily and Alice were nearing their final stages of pregnancy, there weren’t enough members for anyone to be picky about missions.
Keeping your head down and your black cloak (which had a Camouflage Charm on it) wrapped around you, you quickly made your way through the garden, taking a path that only those familiar with the garden would know about.
You knew that there was a guest bedroom that was rarely used towards the end of the hallway on the West Wing. You thought you’d creep in there and then look for the document – a roster of Death Eater targets of Ministry members.
However, as you neared the guest bedroom, you noticed that there was a dim light on. Furthermore, the window was open, though the tulle and silk curtains were still covering the window. The curtains fluttered back and forth in the thin breeze.
The light is very dim. Is someone actually in there? you wondered. I can’t just barge in if someone’s in there. I should try to hear what’s going on first, I suppose. After glancing all around you to make sure no one else was out in the gardens, you carefully stepped close enough to listen for any sounds coming from the room.
As you stepped closer, you heard a woman’s voice murmuring quite seductively, “Take off your shirt for me, won’t you? There’s a sweetheart.” A moment later, she breathed out, “Mm, you are a proper pureblood prince, aren’t you? Look at you.”
Then, an incredibly familiar voice said dully, almost murmuring, “Let’s not play around. You have me. What is it you want now?”
Your eyes widened. Barely stifling a gasp, you quickly stepped to the side of the open window and pressed your back against the wall, facing away from the room, so that you couldn’t see into the room nor could anyone inside the room see you.
“Hm…” the woman said playfully. Though you couldn’t see her, she was slowly running her hands, still covered in little lace gloves and adorned with glittering diamond rings, over Cyrille’s abs. She traced the line running down the middle with the nail of her pinky finger before she looked up at him and said clearly, “I would like to be dominated tonight. You see, all of my prior husbands, as much as I loved them, caved to me so very quickly. All I had to do was give them a look, and they’d be on their knees, fawning over me. As wonderful as that all is, I would like, for once, to experience a different kind of passion. To be roughly taken by a man.”
It was nothing more than Cyrille expected. “All right,” he said quietly.
But Alina was not quite finished with her monologue yet. Now running her hands slowly over the front of Cyrille’s pants, she told him, “You see, I’ve had almost all of the world’s experience already. When you’re young, rich, and famous, nothing is denied to you. But I have yet to be ravaged by a man. And that, my darling, is where you come into the picture.”
Your heart leapt into your throat as you caught snatches of their conversation through the open window. Oh God, please don’t let this be what I think it is.
You heard Cyrille’s voice again, inflectionless as he replied, “Fine. Tell me your safe word, then.”
She thought about it. Then, she whispered in a tantalizing voice, “Pureblood.” Arching her eyebrow at him, her red lips quirked up into a most pleased smile as she murmured, “Don’t you think it’s perfect?”
“Fine,” Cyrille said again. He looked down at her, for he was standing at the end of the bed, and she was sitting at the edge of the mattress, looking back up at him through her thick lashes as she ran her hands over him. Her hands slipped up onto his lower stomach before sliding downwards, just starting to slip underneath the waistband of his pants.
Cyrille suddenly snatched her hands by her wrists and threw them back, away from him. Then, he roughly pushed her back on the bed, hard enough that she fell back completely.
Alina stared up at him, wide-eyed at how suddenly Cyrille had turned into such an aggressive man.
“You asked for dominant,” Cyrille reminded her. “And if you want this experience to stand out, I’ll give it to you hard.”
At this, Alina smiled again. “Perfect,” she purred. “I’m glad to hear that you understand. It would have been a pity if you didn’t, as you’re a very expensive toy.”
“Shut up and listen to me,” Cyrille snapped at her. “From now on, you’ll do exactly as I say.”
“Anything,” she promised, already being lured in by Cyrille’s overwhelming charisma. She knew what it was – she had it herself, the ability to change to fit any lover, and she saw it in Cyrille. What was more, she willingly gave herself to it, relieved that, for once, she was the one receiving and not giving, as she had always been to her prior seven husbands.
“Touch yourself. Make yourself wet,” Cyrille told her coldly. “As you do, I’ll tell you my rules. They’re simple rules. After I tell you these rules, you’re going to take my cock. So, if you’re not wet by the time I’m done, that’s on you.”
Alina’s eyes widened. Then, pulling up the long skirt of her silk dress, she reached into her lace panties and furiously began to touch herself. Cyrille saw that she was wearing a complete garter set of white lace. She had a very pretty pussy, and as she pressed her fingers against herself, her little lace gloves and diamond rings pushing needily against her pretty cunt made for quite a sight.
Cyrille reached into his own pants and began to stroke himself as he continued his little lecture. “You’ll call me ‘sir.’ If I ask something, you answer out loud, even if I’m covering your mouth. If I can’t hear you, it’s your fault. You cum when – and only when – I say so. And of course, use your safeword if you can’t handle it. But, if you use your safeword, you’ll have paid for nothing.”
Cyrille reached up and licked his long fingers before reaching back down, now pumping his cock in his hand. He looked over at Alina and asked her, “Do you understand me?”
Alina merely smirked up at the young man. “You really are just as they say, you know.”
Cyrille lifted his eyebrow at her, unamused.
“All work, no play,” Alina said. “That was how Cella Thorne described you, and I see now that she was right.” She started to laugh when Cyrille reached down and grasped her by the neck, though he was careful not to apply too much pressure just yet. He did squeeze, however, with his long fingers flexed around her neck. Then, kneeling down and leaning forward, Cyrille whispered harshly in her ear, “You’ve already disobeyed me. You’re supposed to say ‘yes, sir.’”
“Y-Yes, sir,” she gasped, startled. She struggled a little against his grasp.
Cyrille choked her harder now. “Again.”
“…Y-Yes, s-sir,” she gasped out. Her hands flew up to his wrist and tugged, for she felt that she couldn’t breathe. “Uhn…”
Cyrille let go of her. She collapsed back on the bed, eyes wide and pussy very, very wet. She’d never had a man treat her this way, and she found it absolutely enthralling.
But before she could ponder it any further, Cyrille impatiently grabbed her arm and yanked her up from the bed.
“You don’t deserve the bed yet,” he told her, and he cruelly slammed her down against the small table in the guest room. The pitcher of water and bowl of fruit, laid out on top of the table for a guest, went tumbling onto the floor. Water splashed everywhere. Alina gasped when she felt the cold water splatter against her shins. Then, she gasped again as her hips and upper thighs slammed into the edge of the table. She was promptly folded and bent over the table, so that her breasts were pushed up against the tabletop, as was her face.
Cyrille reached down and with one hard yank with both his hands, he ripped open the front of her dress quite cleanly.
Alina shrieked, “This is an expensive dress!”
Cyrille muttered ironically, “Is it as expensive as me?”
As the ripped silk was suddenly tugged out from underneath her, Alina shivered, as she found her bare breasts pressed down against a very cold and unforgivingly hard marble tabletop.
She instinctively started to push herself up, coiling from the cold marble, when Cyrille hissed at her, “Don’t you dare get up. If you get up now, I will fuck your mouth until you can’t see through your tears.”
Alina swallowed hard and slowly laid back down.
“That’s a good girl,” Cyrille murmured. He stepped forward and pinned her hips down with his, keeping her against the table. He leaned over and while quickly pushing up the back of her dress and ripping her lace panties off of her carelessly, he murmured in her ear threateningly, “You don’t get to run away. You’ll take me. It’s what you asked for, isn’t it?”
With that, he suddenly rammed his cock inside her.
“Uhn! F-Fuck!” Alina screamed out loudly. “Ow! Fuck, that hurts!” Her thighs shivered deliciously, with her white lace garters shivering around her thighs and the garter straps stretched tight over her plush, thick ass.
“If it hurts, use your safe word,” he replied shortly. He paused, waiting to see if she would.
Still standing outside of the window, you jolted, shocked at how desperate her scream was. Your hands were twisting at the hem of your cloak in pent-up frustration and hurt. You couldn’t believe what you were overhearing.
But having grown up with Cyrille, you had already put two and two together. You remembered what you had overheard in the garden just before the four of you broke. You’d heard about a woman sponsoring the Death Eaters and enabling them to go about Ministry of Magic targets. This woman, you guessed, was the sponsor. You couldn’t tell who she was, or what she looked like, but from the sounds of it, it was so painfully obvious that what she had asked for in exchange for this sponsorship was none other than Cyrille.
You swallowed hard. But he’s mine, you thought, hurt, even though you knew this didn’t mean anything to Cyrille, that she was simply a “client” as many others must have been before her. Still, a part of you wanted to jump inside the room, grab Cyrille’s hand, and take him far, far away.
Alina hadn’t used her safeword. So, Cyrille kept her pressed down underneath him as he forced his cock all the way inside of her.
“I-I’m tight, aren’t I?” she asked him, trying to retain at least a little of her usual alluring demeanor. “Don’t you feel my pussy wrapping all around your cock? You know, you’re the first man who I’m letting fuck me before marriage.”
“An honor,” Cyrille said dryly, barely keeping from rolling his eyes. He pulled out of her just a little, only to thrust rough and hard inside of her. “I don’t care how tight you are, you just need to take me,” he told her. Growling, he repeated, “Fucking take me” as he pushed himself all the way inside of her again. When he was balls-deep inside of her, he bent over her slightly and putting his hands on either side of her on the by gripping the edges of the table, he pressed himself into her harder, truly making her take every inch of his cock.
“Oh – Oh my God,” she whispered pathetically, and then she shivered all over. A moment later, she breathed out, “Fuck me. Fuck my pussy. Make me cum. Please.”
Cyrille wasted no time in setting a hard, rough rhythm in fucking her cunt. He growled lowly as he immediately set to pounding inside of her. A harsh grating sound rang out as Cyrille drove his cock into Alina hard enough to force the table forward centimeter by centimeter, until Alina’s head was up against the wall. Alina tried to lift her head, but Cyrille harshly pushed her head back down. Alina then tried to lift her leg up to put her knee of the table, which would open up her pussy just a bit more, but Cyrille growled and pushed her leg back down. “You keep those legs together. I want your little hole tight for me,” he growled at her.
Alina whimpered. She was burning between her thighs. She couldn’t think straight. She tried to moan as she usually did – seductively and womanly, but instead, all that came out of her mouth was a loud wailing. “Uhnnn! Uh, Uh, Uh – Fuck! Fuck me!” she cried out loudly. She was pressing her palms against the table for all she was worth. Unfortunately, the marble tabletop was slippery, and what was more, the lace gloves she had on were not helping her at all to hold on. Furthermore, the water that had spilled onto the floor from the water jug was making her feet slip forward as she was positively pounded into. She nearly slipped as she tried to find her footing, which was impossible with how hard her body was being ravaged, with the back of her thighs being slammed into, and her pussy taking a very, very rough pounding.
Cyrille impatiently pushed her back up, now pinning her down against the table hard enough that the table edge left a red mark on her stomach the following day. Alina gasped and her hands flew out and hit the wall just above the table with a loud thud. Then, hard slapping sounds sounded out between them, even though they had only just started fucking. Alina had a gorgeous, thick ass, that was very shapely and womanly, and it bounced with every thrust that Cyrille gave her, making quite lewd sounds ring out almost immediately. Her hands were starting to slide down the wall and her head bowed forward as she felt her body being absolutely dominated.
“I can’t s-stay up. Hold me,” Alina whimpered to Cyrille, as she reached back with one arm towards him. Cyrille instinctively responded, reaching out and grasping her toned upper arm, right below her shoulder, and he yanked her back rhythmically, so that she was pushing back and sitting on him as he fucked his cock into her.
“Uhnnn,” Alina moaned loudly, panting desperately. “You’re taking me so hard…” She stared back at him with wide eyes, shocked at how rough and punishing this young man could be. Her mouth fell open and she stared at him dumbly as Cyrille fucked her pussy hard and deep.
“You can go tell Cella Thorne all about it when we’re done,” Cyrille hissed softly at her. “How it took me all of one minute to fuck you until you couldn’t stand.”
Alina blinked, taken aback. Then, her eyes shut and her mouth opened in a large “O” shape as she moaned wantonly as Cyrille slammed himself into her hard enough to make pain spurt up along with the pleasure, deep inside of her body. “Oh! Fuck!” she cried out. “F-Fuck, mmm, fuck!”
Cyrille’s hand slipped off of her arm. Now, he was nearly lifting her off her feet as he had grasped her hips in his large hands and was rocking her back and forth in rough, hard yanks at her body, making her fuck herself hard on his cock.
Alina was already trembling all over. Cyrille could feel her quivering underneath him, and internally, he let out a sigh of relief. All right, I can make her cum fast, he thought. Because Cyrille had only one mission – to make her cum as quickly as possible and to get the hell out of here. Cyrille also knew, however, as experience had taught him, exactly what she was looking for – She wanted him to cave. She’d made that remark about him being “all work, no play” and Cyrille was certain that a woman of her level of riches and status and beauty would want to feel herself be the “first woman” to make him cave. So, he knew that he’d have to put on a bit of a show for her to satisfy her. Internally, he sighed. Alina was a gorgeous woman, there was no doubt about it. After all, this was the woman was had managed to marry seven of the wealthiest men in society. But Cyrille didn’t care. He didn’t care for her, or for this situation, whatsoever. He just wanted… you. He wanted his angel.
Cyrille shut his eyes tightly. Thinking of Angel, he let himself moan a little.
“Oh, Lestrange,” Alina breathed out, thinking it was for her. “Does m-my pussy feel that good? For you to l-lose restraint like this? S-so quickly…”
Alina’s voice broke Cyrille’s imagining you. “Shut up,” he growled at her. His hand inched towards the back of her neck, wanting to choke her.
But then, Alina begged, “Spank me. Please, spank me! I’ll cum if you spank me!”
Cyrille paused for just a moment.
Outside of the window, you still had your back pressed against the wall. At hearing her request, you froze, eyes wide, as your mind flashed back to a memory from dear Hogwarts, back when you and Cyrille had given yourselves to each other one last time, in the boathouse in the dead of night and all through the night, before graduation.
“You can’t forget that you’re mine,” you told him softly. “You can’t let anyone else be with you this way. No one else gets to make you cum like I do. Only me. Only I get you this way. You can only cum in me. Please. Promise me.”
“Angel, of course,” Cyrille whispered adoringly.
“I mean it, Cy,” you told him, a bit embarrassed to be so demanding, but meaning it all the same. “Only I get to be fucked and spanked by you.”
“I promise you, princess,” Cyrille said sincerely. “I’m yours. I thought that was obvious. And yes, I’ll only cum in you.”
Cyrille’s cold voice suddenly interrupted your memory. “You don’t decide what I do to you. Get on the bed. Now.”
You heard the woman scrambling onto the bed, eager to please Cyrille. When he joined her on the bed, she was all fours. Turning her head over her shoulder to look back at him, she told him, “Kiss me.”
But he refused her, saying, instead “Lie back. Now. Spread your thighs. Show me your pussy.”
In fact, Cyrille had not given her a single kiss, not once, through all of this intense fucking. You were more than a little taken aback by his utter harshness, for he’d always given you as many kisses as you wanted, not just interspersing your rounds of fucking with sweet kisses, but treating you to long, romantic, and passionate kisses both before and after sex. But there was none of that here. You found yourself wondering if he took his time with you because he loved you, as you loved him. I hope so, you thought, even though right now, that love was making you utterly miserable as you had to hear him be with another woman.
Alina put her face down on the sheets, but she stayed on her knees, lifting her gorgeous, thick ass in the air for Cyrille, Reaching back, she opened herself up for Cyrille with her hands, still in those delicate lace gloves, gripping her ass and spreading herself apart to make herself look inviting to Cyrille. Cyrille positioned himself behind her.
A moment later, you heard Cyrille grunt and thrust, forcing a sharp gasp out of the woman. You took a deep, shuddering breath. Your hands were shaking. The sun was setting on the gardens now, and the light inside the room seemed brighter. You knew that if you were to peek inside, you might be able to make out silhouettes on the curtains. But you didn’t want to look. Just the sounds alone were slowly breaking your heart. Even now, you heard the woman’s deep, passionate moans transform into breathy little pleas.
“Harder, harder,” she whimpered. “I’m w-wet now. Oh, I’m so wet. Fuck my pussy. Just like that!”
As she was fucked mindless, her hands slipped off of her ass, and her knees slipped wider and wider apart on bed, so that she was falling lower and lower onto the bed.
Cyrille reached under her and grasping her thighs in his large hands, he impatiently pushed her back up as he ordered her, “Get up. Now.”
Trembling, Alina managed to get herself back up on all fours, with her knees close together again to keep herself high enough to take a good fucking from Cyrille. This time, Cyrille spread her pretty little ass open before pushing himself back inside her. He fucked her pussy roughly, watching her ass bounce against him as he violated her little hole over and over again.
“Oh my God,” Alina whispered tightly, and her head dropped forward. “U-Uhn, G-God, s-so h-hard...” She couldn’t even get any words out properly, she was stuttering so much because of how roughly Cyrille was slamming his cock into her. He groaned a little as he felt himself rutting into her fast and hard.
Only a minute later, Alina was screaming again, crying out, “Yes, yes, yes, ye -!” Her voice cut off. A high-pitched whimper rang out in the room.
Immediately, you heard Cyrille growl in displeasure. “You fucking disobedient slut,” he snarled at her. He grabbed her by the back of the neck and yanked her over, forcing her to fall back on her bed. “I told you you could only cum with my permission.”
“B-But I f-forgot,” she whined, looking up at him with her legs folded up on either side of her and her thighs and pussy quivering as she was still finishing cumming. “Uhn, you – you were fucking me so hard. I needed to cum. J-Just look at my little pussy, all q-quivering from your c-cock. Because you were pounding me, e-enjoying me. It’s y-your fault, not mi -”
She was cut off as Cyrille slapped her in the face before gripping her chin hard in his hand. “My fault?” he hissed at her.
“No,” she backtracked quickly. “No, I didn’t mean it like that.”
“Are you sorry?” Cyrille asked her demandingly.
She nodded.
“Out loud,” he snarled. He slapped her wet pussy hard, leaving her red and stinging.
“Y-Yes, sir,” she whimpered. “I’m sorry, sir.”
“Fine,” Cyrille said icily. “I’ll give you one more chance.”
“Yes, sir!” she replied excitedly, spreading open her thighs for Cyrille at once.
Cyrille kneeled down on the bed and positioning himself between her legs, he suddenly yanked her to him, pulling her thighs up on top of his until her pussy lips were flush against his cock. She shivered all over in anticipation of being roughly taken again.
But Cyrille wasn’t going to fuck her just yet. Instead, he leaned back and grabbed his belt, as it was hanging off the edge of the bed. Then, he reached down and tied it down around Alina’s pretty neck and tightened it.
“Oh...” she breathed out. “Sir...”
“You’re enjoying this quite a bit,” Cyrille realized, as he felt her pussy already throbbing and gushing even though she was only pressed up against the length of his cock right now, without him being inside her.
“I am,” she agreed, panting a little when Cyrille gave the makeshift leash a little tug to check that it was firmly around her neck. “As it turns out, your young, fit body is quite suitable for fucking.”
“And you’re so moody,” she told him, and laughed lightly. “It’s adorable, but it turns into quite a different atmosphere when we’re like this.”
“When we’re like what? When I’m fucking you?” Cyrille said crudely, wrapping the other end of the belt around his hand.
“Yes,” she said, totally unashamed. “Exactly - uhn!”
Her voice was cut off suddenly as Cyrille gave a little yank on the belt. For a moment, Alina’s head came up off the pillow. "Uhnnn,” she moaned a little more as her neck was pulled forward. Her head fell back a little, and her chest and breasts came up as she arched her back a little before Cyrille. Cyrille reached down and slowly ran his hand possessively from her throat down between her breasts, down her stomach, and then down between her thighs, as she was still pressed up against him with her thighs split open for him. Cyrille pushed his thumb against her clit for a moment and rubbed her, making sure she was wet.
Feeling his thumb on her pussy, Alina looked up at Cyrille and fluttering her eyelashes ever so slightly, she whispered to him, while reaching up to run her hands up and down his arms as far as she could reach, “You know, I find you rather charming. You have the gift that I have – the gift of reading and pleasing people. I’m not stupid – I know you’re not really like this and that you’re putting on a show. See, I’ve done that too, my whole life. I think you’ll find that we can understand each other quite well, not just sexually. So, how about after this you come with me, and you spend some more time with me? I can pay you handsomely, if that’s what you want. And of course, you can make love to me whenever you want - if you extend me the same opportunity.”
Cyrille paused, recognizing that he was in dangerous territory. To refuse her too obviously was to risk her wrath, and by extension, the wrath of Rodolphus, Rabastan, and Bellatrix, if not the Dark Lord himself. To give any indication of affirmation, though, was likewise foolish, as Cyrille could tell that here was a woman who knew exactly what she wanted, knew how to get people to commit to giving her what she wanted, and then used any means possible to enchant people into following through on their promises.
You waited outside with bated breath, knowing that Cyrille would refuse her, but there was still that tiny, tiny part of your brain that doubted and wondered and feared he would take her up on her offer.
However, avoiding the minefield altogether, Cyrille simply guided his cock to her cunt, and then, grasping her left hip tightly with his left hand, and grasping the leash hard for his right hand, he took her again, pushing his hard cock back into her tight cunt.
Alina moaned long and loud. Her hips quivered, then rolled sensually, as she grinded on Cyrille’s cock. Reaching up, she touched her breasts for Cyrille, giving him a bit of a show to look at as he fucked her.
Cyrille had to admit that Alina Zabini was gorgeous. Many girls would kill to have the womanly aspects of her body – her wide hips, large tits, shapely ass, and beautiful hourglass shape; and many women would kill to have the still girlish features of her figure – her slim thighs, her delicate waist, and pretty, pert lips. Plus, her dark skin was so beautiful, all smooth and creamy in texture and color, and especially stunning because it was sensually paired with her long raven-black hair, and her thick, fluttering eyelashes. There was something about her legs, too, that was stunning. Perhaps it was how fine and toned her calves were, or how slender and inviting her thighs looked, or just the sultry way in which she walked, strutted, swaying her hips and crossing her long legs. It was hard to say exactly what about her it was that was so incredibly enticing, but it was impossible to deny her overwhelming charm and appeal.
Alina also glowed and glittered with all of the signs of someone who was well taken care of, not only in the tightness and svelteness of her own body, but also in how she dressed and adorned herself. On her chest, there bounced a necklace made completely out of gold and diamonds, given to her by her previous husband, and on her ears, there were long dangling earrings of silver and emeralds, a gift from her husband before that. Those jewels were worth a fortune, probably worth more money than most people would ever see in their entire lives. It wasn’t simply what she wore, either, but how she wore it. She glowed with confidence and charisma - the charisma, Cyrille had, but not the confidence, and to be honest, he envied and admired her for it.
And there was this fragrant musk to her, something sultry but also sweet, and though Cyrille didn’t know it, it was magically enchanted perfume, splashed through with the Love Potion, Amortentia, to act as a trigger for sexual hormones. It was a perfume specifically made for her, and only her, and it wafted over Cyrille as he thrust into her again.
Yes, Cyrille thought, she was the kind of woman that truly, no man or woman would say no to. In an incredible way, she fit all ideal types in some way or another, so that men and women, young or old, or those who preferred their lovers to be of a certain shape or who dressed a particular style or who held themselves up a distinct manner, etc., etc. would all find her flawless, and find many things to love about her. It was how she managed to marry husband after husband. It wasn’t like her husbands were ignorant or that she hid the fact that she had prior husbands - not at all. Rather, she somehow always managed to reach the man before her, make him feel wanted, make him feel like a man, and make him realize that only she could give that majestic feeling to him, until it didn’t matter that she had been previously married, once, twice, or even a hundred times. The man in front of her wanted her more than anything, and thus simply married her. That was the incredible appeal she had and naturally, some of it was tied to her aura and her svelte, yet incredibly shapely body, which Cyrille was experiencing for himself now.
Cyrille also realized that though he was clearly the one giving, it was impossible to deny that Alina was good at sex, mixing foreplay with fucking all of the time. She rolled her hips back at him in just the right way, pushing back just as he bottomed out, so that she made sure he was inside of her all the way and fucking her good and hard. She knew how to spread her legs and touch herself while sensually looking into a man’s eyes. And she knew how to give him that sultry look to keep him going, to have him rut up inside of her and push her closer and closer to climax. Cyrille recognized and even appreciated all of this now. But he just didn’t care. She was not who he wanted. That was the end of the story for him. He had been with too many women and men to care to feel remotely any novelty in this situation at this point, no matter how beautiful his patron was.
Still, Cyrille diligently fucked her good and hard, holding onto the leash hard enough that he inadvertently tugged at it each time he thrust, and Alina’s body arched and buckled in all the right ways for him as she was fucked. Alina’s eyes rolled back in her head. She was gasping as her pussy was weeping with pleasure. In a matter of minutes, her thighs turned bright crimson from being slammed into. Alina loved it, wanting more and more of him inside her, especially as she got wetter and wetter. Putting her hands just under her knees, she kept lifting her legs higher and higher in the air, as she tried to make more room for him so that he could fuck her deeper. Eventually, Cyrille held up her legs for her by letting her drape her legs over his arms, folding at the knees, and then her long legs jerked in the air, almost flopping up and down, as Cyrille rammed his cock into her quite roughly, making her take his entire length over and over again.
“Oh, God, you fuck me so g-good,” Alina whimpered needily. her voice breaking as Cyrille yanked at the leash a little, “You f-fuck like an animal. Uhn, I love it. I want you to use my pussy and cum in it.”
“It would have made my husbands s-so jealous,” she whispered to him, confessing. “I never used to let them c-cum in me, you know... To let a lover do it on the f-first night, oh God, they would h-have gone mad with jealously... Mmm, just the thought of it makes me so tight. Oh, please, sir, g-give it to me... I want it. Your c-cum.”
She looked up at him alluringly, her dark brown, almond-shaped eyes sparkling under her thick black lashes. She whispered breathlessly, “Cum in m-me. Fill my little pussy with y-you. Let me have it. Please, sir.”
Cyrille looked away from her. He was having the effect he wanted on her, but he knew he was not going to cum in her, no matter what. Because he’d promised angel that he wouldn’t cum in anyone but her, and he wanted to keep his promise to her, not only because he wanted to keep his promise to her, but because he only wanted to cum in her. If he hadn’t met angel when he was younger, if he hadn’t fallen in love with her at such an impressionable age, Cyrille really might have fallen for Alina, might have felt lucky to be able to fuck such a beautiful woman tonight, and might have accepted her invitation to be with her going forward. But because of his experiences with you and because of his feelings for you, Cyrille wasn’t drawn in by any of these superficial promises. He knew that what he had with you was something real, and he was determined to protect it. What he didn’t know, however, was that you were standing just outside the window.
You had still kept your self-restraint and decided not to look, but you couldn’t seem to tear yourself from the window as you overheard the sounds of rough, frantic fucking, punctuated by the woman’s high-pitched whimpers and sultry moans or by your boyfriend’s low growls and groans. You stared up at the sky, wide-eyed and feeling terribly, terribly numb.
Oh, Cy, you thought to yourself. I know you don’t want to be in this situation either, but this is too much. You’re supposed to be mine. You’re supposed to be with me. You don’t even know, do you? How I searched for you when I found out that – Without any warning, you suddenly let out a choked sob. Shocked at yourself, you quickly clapped your hand over your mouth.
Fortunately, Alina had chosen that moment to repeat, “Cum in me! Cum in this tight, waiting pussy. Please! I’ll take it all. I won’t waste one drop, I promise you. P-Please…”
Cyrille said nothing to what was meant to be an irresistible invite. Wanting him to respond and not understanding why he wouldn’t just say yes, Alina impatiently pulled Cyrille down and put her hands possessively on his back and neck. She dug her nails into his shoulders, making Cyrille hiss as little red crescents appeared on his back, as she tried to have him kiss her, but Cyrille turned his head away, though he kept pounding into her, wanting to make her cum quickly and trying to disguise his rejection of her.
Alina then tried to kiss him, at which point Cyrille finally let go of the leash and instead, he lifted himself up while keeping her pinned down against the bed to avoid her. She began to protest, but just then, Cyrille grasped her ankles and yanking her legs up, he pushed her roughly into a demeaning position, with her legs all the way up over her head, so that all Cyrille could see when he looked down was her little hole, flushed bright red and throbbing already.
“Offering yourself to be fucked like this…” Cyrille let out a disapproving tsk. “When I’m not even your husband. Shouldn’t you be ashamed?” He played off of what she had told him before, that he was supposedly the first man who she fucked without marrying. Regardless of whether that was true or not (and Cyrille did not care to know), Cyrille had realized that her telling him that was an indicator that she got off on that, and he now used that fact to his advantage, to make her feel wanted, even though he just rejected her invitations to spend more time with her, to cum in her, and even to kiss her.
He tried to cover up for himself by saying things he knew would turn her on. He ran his hands over her pussy, teasing her, as he said, in mock grimness, “If your husbands saw you in this manner, being taken by some random lover, in the guest room of another’s estate, what would they say? If they knew you were offering their fortunes and wearing the jewels they bought you, only to please another man, don’t you think they would fuck you just as hard as I’m fucking you now? I don’t think they’d wait on you hand and foot anymore, I think they’d do what I’m doing, and just treat you as a wet little hole, waiting to be fucked. Nothing more.”
“Yes, yes!” Alina cried out loud, playing into it. “I’m just a hole, a hole for you to use, a hole for you to fill with your cock. Oh, take me how you please. Just fuck me, fuck me now!”
Cyrille sighed. But he acquiesced. Holding her thighs down over her head with one hand, he fell to his knees, positioning the tip of his cock right at her pussy hole. Then, reaching out, Cyrille gripped the top of the headboard with one hand, and then, he thrust hard inside of Alina.
“Uhn!” she groaned. “Fuck, that feels so good! Yes! Pound me! Pound my little pussy! Take it as yours!” Her voice became higher and higher, as her need to be pounded by Cyrille grew and grew. No longer did she see him as a funny young man, who was “all work, no play,” for if this is what “all work, no play” meant, she wanted him to work her all night. She loved the way he talked about her prior husbands, humiliating them through words by humiliating her, because, while they had all been loving husbands and she knew that she had used them, they had also all used her, objectified her, until she was more an image of beauty than anything remotely human, remotely feeling, remotely woman. But Cyrille was different. By giving her what she wanted, by performing the role she had always performed for others but never had anyone play for her, Alina finally felt like herself a little bit more, finally felt like she, too, was a woman, who was allowed to be passionate, and not just so “perfect” all the time. Yes, all of the other men she’d been with before had worshipped her and waited on her hand and foot. And there was nothing wrong with that, but even when she asked for something different and tried to make her needs known, no one ever listened, no one ever cared. So, Cyrille’s domination of her, just as she had asked for, was making her feel so intensely. Naturally, releasing all of this emotional baggage within herself, she found it so easy and natural to moan for Cyrille and let him take her little hole and pound it, pound it for his pleasure, which was also hers. Her cunt was absolutely soaking now from taking such a relentless pounding, and Alina loved it.
Clutching onto the headboard tight with his left hand, Cyrille snapped his hips forward hard and fast, fucking Alina as she’d never been fucked before.
“Ah! Ah! Ah! Oh, God!” Her cries ripped through the room. Her own cum was now dripping down onto her breasts, because of the position Cyrille had folded her up into, and because of how hard Cyrille was fucking her. His balls slapped against her, and his cock rutting into her pussy repeatedly was making her cum spread everywhere. She was so incredibly wet. Cyrille grimaced a little bit, but he continued to drive his cock into her. His right hand, too, slipped from her thighs up and he fingered her asshole as he fucked her.
The bed was creaking quite loudly, and the rough fucking motion made the pillows slowly fall off the sides of the bed. Alina moaned loudly underneath him. “Fuck my ass!” she cried out. “Please, put your cock in my ass!”
Cyrille didn’t wish to do that. But, reaching up, he licked his fingers before inserting his forefinger inside of her asshole to give her the sensation she wanted.
“Oh, God,” Alina groaned. “Mmm…”
Cyrille slowly worked his finger inside of her asshole. Then, he finger fucked her as he fucked her pussy with his cock.
Alina was letting out a stream of endless moans, just moaning and moaning. She’d completely blanked out. Her pussy had never hurt so badly, but it hurt so good, pounding right into the deepest core of her pussy, making her shiver, and that tension kept rising inside of her as Cyrille’s hard cock slammed inside of her repeatedly.
“Look,” he growled down at her. “Turn your head. Look at the mirror.”
Alina, trembling all over, barely managed to turn her head. She did, in fact, see a mirror on the wall parallel to the bed, which meant that she had a full view of herself, folded over completely on the bed, ass up, offering herself like a slut to Cyrille, whose long and elegant body was curved up possessively over hers, and who was holding onto the headboard with one hand as he brutally fucked her in her pussy. Cum was already dripping down her thighs, glistening in the late evening sunlight coming in through the window. Her diamonds, too, flashed on her chest, appearing and disappearing, as Cyrille repeatedly thrust inside her, pushing her legs down hard enough to cover her chest, then pulling back, when her legs would spring up slightly again, only to be pushed back down by his forceful thrust. The boy certainly has hips, and he certainly knows how to use them, Alina thought, watching Cyrille snap his hips forward to give her his cock. And the result was that the friction he created in her pussy was just beautiful, absolutely perfect, and pushing her to cum for her young lover.
“Are you watching yourself?” Cyrille asked her, panting a little as he kept pushing his cock deep inside her. “You like seeing yourself get fucked?”
“Y-Yes, sir,” Alina moaned. “Ah, yes, I love it s-so much. S-Seeing myself get p-pounded by you, sir - uhn, fuck!”
“You like my cock in your pussy?”
“Yes!” Alina was nearly weeping.
“Yes, sir,” Cyrille growled at her.
“Y-Yes, s-sir,” Alina sobbed loudly. “I’m s-sorry, sir!”
“And keep your fucking eyes open!” Cyrille snapped at her, seeing her starting to fade into complete ecstasy and unconsciously fluttering her eyes shut. “You have to watch yourself get fucked by me. I want you to see yourself get ruined by your lover tonight. Watch yourself taking cock like the good little slut that you are for me.”
“Oh G-God... Sir, p-please,” Alina whimpered, her pussy clenching hard at Cyrille’s words. She could not be more turned on by him.
Forcing her eyes open, she looked once more at herself in the mirror, and just as Cyrille said, she saw herself getting ruined by him, and it was beautiful to her. Alina thought she looked like a perfect little doll, dressed in the world’s most expensive jewels, as she was being fucked like a whore, and she loved it. She loved seeing herself this way - loved seeing the way her creamy thighs were turning crimson from slapping against her lover’s thighs, loved seeing her delicate lace gloves grip onto the silk sheets on either side of her for all she was worth, loved to see her pussy lips gripping onto the young man’s cock as he pulled back after every thrust, making him groan, and loved seeing her toned and womanly body being fucked hard into the mattress over and over again. It was such a release for her. She wondered what society would say if they saw her - Alina Zabini, the most prim and proper and expensive-looking woman in the world, like this, flipped up and having her pussy devoured by young, hard cock thrusting unforgivingly inside of her and forcing out all kinds of lewd sounds from her mouth and pussy, more lewd than all the other ladies in society could ever imagine. The makeshift collar on her neck, made from another man’s belt and not even a proper collar, and tightened around her neck enough to leave red notches against her throat, was proof of her secret fantasies.
“That’s what your husbands would see,” he told her crudely, knowing it would turn her on even more. “You being used like a fucking slut for me. Legs over your head, pussy all red and weeping. A little cumslut for me, huh? Uhn, fuck, you’re such a bad girl, aren’t you?”
“B-Bad girl,” Alina mumbled out, nodding. “Bad girl f-for you, sir, y-yes...” Yes, that thought turned her on so much - to be a bad girl to her husbands, to let them see that she wasn’t always the picture-perfect wife... Mmm, she thought, fuck, yes, that’s what I am with Cyrille. A very, very bad girl...
“Yes, sir,” she moaned, so turned on by the thought of it. “T-They never f-fucked me like this - uhn! They were j-just pleased if I let them e-eat out my pussy. They c-could never imagine having m-me like this, using me like I’m a s-slut - uhn, uhhhh, uhn!”
The sight of her being fucked like that and the thought of her being bad was so sensual to Alina that it made her want it even more, want Cyrille to fuck her even harder. And she asked for it unashamedly, moaning, “Oh, please, fuck me harder!”
Cyrille gritted his teeth, his jawline coming out sharp and clear, as were his abs as he worked his body to please Alina. And she felt it, and she loved to receive it.
“Mmm, fuck,” she growled, “your cock feels so good in me!”
“You were hungry for cock, weren’t you?” Cyrille taunted her. “You wanted nothing more than to take a hard pounding. You wanted to be put in your place - It’s what you craved. None of your husbands dared to do it, but it’s what you secretly wanted - to be taken like this, isn’t it?”
“Y-yes, feels so g-good, ah!” she cried out, her lacy white garters shivering deliciously on her pretty thighs. “Oh God, keep going! Keep fucking me! Ah, yes, I’m getting s-so close!”
Alina squeezed her eyes shut. It was such a strange feeling to have her head uncomfortably wedged between the bed and headframe like this, while her legs were neatly folded over so that Cyrille could pound into her little pussy – and oh God, his finger was delving in and out of her tight little asshole while his cock kept on slamming into her poor little pussy. He was absolutely merciless in fucking her, and it made her entire body heat up for him. “Oh, fuck!” she finally whimpered. “I need to – I’m gonna – cum! Ah! Sir!”
“Shut up. Shut up and cum,” Cyrille ordered her. “Fucking cum.”
Yes, please, he thought wearily. Cum now.
He shoved another finger into her ass, stretching her out more. Alina gasped and choked out another moan. Her hips trembled intensely in the air.
Then, with a soft “uhn,” her back caved in gently, folding over even more, offering herself to Cyrille even more. Cyrille couldn’t even see her face anymore; all he could see her was her ass and pussy in the air. Cyrille slapped her pussy hard again, and it triggered something in Alina.
“Daddy!” she cried out loudly, her voice wrenching through the air. “Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!” She was sobbing, with tears streaming down her cheeks. “Oh, Daddy! I’m gonna cum!” As she cried out in a choked, little voice that she had never heard herself use before, she squirted hard, spraying her cum everywhere.
Cyrille immediately leaned back, avoiding her cum. But as she finally finished cumming, Cyrille found the end of her belt leash again and yanked it forward, effectively pulling her clean off the bed.
Alina gasped loudly as she jolted forward, straight off the mattress. The sides of her neck burned from where the leather chaffed hard at her soft skin. But Cyrille did catch her. With one arm around her waist, he led her over to the mirror.
“Look at how fucking ruined you are,” he whispered in her ear. “You were used today, used for pleasure, used as my little slut, and here’s the evidence.”
Alina looked. Her makeup was smeared, and her thighs were quivering, and her white lace garters were drenched with cum. Her hair was messy and her cheeks were red - one was redder than the other from when Cyrille had slapped her, and her neck was starting to show signs of becoming red, too. Alina spotted her dress, too, ripped open and lying in a mess of silk a few feet behind her, sitting in a puddle of spilled water. She breathed out softly. My image is totally smashed. And yet, he’s still here with me. I could really love him. He’s so wonderful at making love, and at making me feel free... I even squirted for him. If he even knew how rare that way, how I never did that for any of my husbands... Mmm, I want him. I want this young man as mine.
Alina turned away from the mirror and she tried to hug Cyrille, tried to push herself against his side and bury her head against his chest as she murmured pitifully and yet enticingly, “Daddy...”
Cyrille backed away at once, dropping the end of his belt. As he moved away from her, Cyrille muttered coldly, “Hardly. I’m far younger than you.”
“Daddy!” she cried out again, ignoring his remark. “It’s your turn. Cum in me now. Give it to me. Please, my pussy needs your cum!”
“No. You’ve cummed twice,” Cyrille said unfeelingly. “That should be enough to ‘secure your commitment.’”
“N-No! Wait! Stay with me.” Alina scrambled towards Cyrille again, trying to coax him to stay with her longer.
Cyrille pulled up his pants and buckled them. Then, he grabbed his shirt and pulled that on, too.
“Oh, don’t go yet. That was so much fun,” Alina whined. “Fine, I won’t call you Daddy. But what about my offer? You haven’t cum in me yet, you know. Don’t you want to cum in my pussy? I promise I won’t do the spells right away. I’ll let you see the creampie, and I can even give you a little show. Dance for you a little and all that jazz.” She tried to hug Cyrille, pressing her breasts up against him, for she had an incredibly stunning figure, and she knew it. “Please,” she said to him, putting her hand on his face, “you’re an incredible person, and I want you with me. Give me a chance. I can teach you things, make you happy, make you feel like a man...”
Cyrille reached around her neck, and for a moment, Alina thought Cyrille would acquiesce to her, but he merely retrieved his belt from her neck before he quickly pulled away again. “No, thank you,” he said, as neutrally as he could manage, while he slung his belt over his shoulder. “You can go home if you wish, or if you wish to stay here, I’m sure my brother can figure out an arrangement for you. Good night.” He left her, closing the door behind him.
You slowly let out a long, low breath.
* * * * * * * * * *
You were simply staring at the watch in your hand. In just seven minutes, he had fulfilled all of the woman’s fantasies, and left her fabulously ruined.
Only, you had noticed that Cyrille had refused to spank her and to cum in her… It might have seemed strange to the woman as to why he refused, but you knew perfectly well why. You reached up and slowly wiped your eyes. You didn’t know when you had started crying, but you found your eyes quite wet. After wiping your eyes, you put your watch away, too, and holding your breath, you began to walk away, back through the gardens. But then, when you were just a little further away from the back wall of the house, you realized that you could see up onto the second floor of the house.
You paused. That’s Cyrille’s room… The light had just flickered on. Once more, you checked your surroundings. Seeing no one, you rather clumsily, but successfully, climbed up the nearest tree. You made sure to gather your cloak around you, so that you wouldn’t be spotted.
Sure enough, Cyrille had walked into his bedroom. He closed his bedroom door behind him. Then, he slumped back against the door. Though he was looking down, if he looked up, he would be looking right out of the window. You quickly hid yourself behind the biggest branch, so that he wouldn’t catch you. (You had on your cloak, of course, but it wasn’t always the most reliable thing, what with there being wind and all that.) Then, you saw Cyrille reach into his pants and pull out his still hard cock, glistening all over with that woman’s cum.
But as Cyrille stroked himself and his head fell back against his door, revealing his sharp cheekbones and jawline and beautiful throat, the name he moaned wasn’t the name of the woman he had just been with, but it was yours.
“Angel,” he groaned, rather loudly, “I missed you, my love.”
He thrust against his hand, which was wrapped firmly around his cock.
And as he growled, “Fuck, angel, yes, let me cum inside your mouth…” it left no mistake as to what he was imagining.
Your mouth dropped open. Then, you blushed intensely. Oh, a little part of your head realized, so this is what it’s like to see someone else cumming to the thought of you.
“Mmm… Ah, fuck, angel, that’s perfect. Yes, you’re so fucking perfect, my love.”
You watched with wide eyes, gazing out from between your fingers (as you’d put your hands up to your face and pressed them against your cheeks instinctively when you felt yourself start to blush) as Cyrille pleasured himself intently now to the thought of you.
Then, letting out a high, soft moan, a stream of white, thick cum spurted out from the tip of his cock.
He groaned lowly. “Oh, angel…” he murmured. Opening his eyes, he sighed, feeling more than a little pathetic. Pushing back his long silver hair from his face, he whispered numbly, “I miss you.”
It took everything you had not to attempt the leap between the tree and the second floor balcony. Even though you were feeling very hurt, taken aback, and honestly, more than a little disgusted, at seeing him fuck another woman to tears, you still wanted nothing more than to race into his room, throw your arms around him, and cover his face with kisses.
But looking discretely at your watch, you realized you had to get back at once, or risk setting off the alarm and putting everyone’s lives in danger.
When Cyrille turned around to grab a towel (meaning his back was to the window), you dropped out of the tree. Your hood fell down, revealing your head. But you figured that at this point, it was better to just book it back into the garden than to stop and pull your hood back up. So, once back on the ground, you began to scamper back through the garden.
However, you realized that you were standing amongst the summer roses. Cyrille and I had our second kiss close to here, you realized. Oh, we were so innocent then, weren’t we? Lost in memory, you couldn’t help except pause to look back over your shoulder at Cyrille’s window one last time.
You suddenly gasped softly and you held your breath as you realized Cyrille had come out to the balcony. For a moment, you swore your eyes met. Then, you yanked your hood down over your face, and making sure the Camouflage Cloak was tucked in securely around you, you dashed off, ducking behind the hedges to make sure you weren’t spotted as you raced back to the secret meeting point.
* * * * * * * * * *
Up atop the second floor balcony, Cyrille passed his hand over his eyes tiredly. For a second, he swore he’d seen you, his angel, standing in the rose gardens, looking up at him through the window. But the next moment, he’d blinked, and nothing was there except the usual roses and the large oak tree.
I must be losing my mind, he thought. He blew out a long, low sigh, and then, turning away, he went back into his bedroom, praying that sleep would be coming quickly tonight.
* * * * * * * * * *
You united again with Moody, Dorcas, and Remus.
“I found the document,” Dorcas said, holding up a sheet of parchment. “Anyone else find anything useful?”
Moody nodded. “Yeah, but I’d like to discuss it was Dumbledore first.”
Remus shook his head. “No,” he replied. “I avoided Bellatrix.” A bit sheepishly, he said, “That took up about all of my time.”
“At least you kept her off our tails,” Dorcas said, nodding appreciatively.
“Some woman sponsored the Death Eaters,” you offered.
“Do you know who she is?” Moody asked.
Slowly, you shook her head. Maybe I should have looked, you thought. But no, that would have destroyed me. I’d never have been able to get that image out of my mind…
“All right, good work,” Moody said curtly. “Now, let’s get the hell out of here!”
* * * * * * * * * *
Cyrille fought his insomnia for three long hours before he started to properly fall asleep. However, he was then woken up by a faint knocking at his window.
“What in hell -?” he muttered, as he forced himself to get up. He opened the window. Out on the balcony, there was none other than Regulus Black, perched atop on a broomstick.
Cyrille’s mouth fell open. “Regulus? What are you doing here in the dead of night?”
“Cyrille, I’m sorry to bother you. It’s just that I had to come and see you. I figured that, out of everybody, I owe you a good-bye,” Regulus murmured quietly. Cyrille noticed that his normally bright eyes had gone dark, almost dull, and yet, there was a steely fire burning in his irises that hadn’t been there before. “After all,” Regulus continued to murmur, “I know full well that I never would have made it this far without you. You always were protecting me, and the others, too.”
Cyrille at once noted the seriousness of Regulus’ misdemeanor.
“Are you hurt?” Cyrille asked at once. “Or has somebody threatened you?”
“No.” Regulus shook his head. “It’s nothing like that. It’s just that I’ve come to tell you… that I’ve made up my mind.”
“Made up your mind? About what?”
“I’m going to take a stand, Cyrille.”
“What do you mean, Reg?”
But Regulus only shook his head again. “Cyrille, I can’t tell you how grateful I am for your friendship.” Swinging his leg back over his broomstick, he murmured, “If I don’t come back, don’t mourn me.”
“Regulus?” Cyrille said, now starting to get seriously worried for his friend.
Regulus kicked off into the air.
“Regulus!” Cyrille called. But Regulus was gone.
