Warmth. That’s what you felt pressed against your back and across your middle as you slowly started to blink your eyes awake. You were confused at first, thinking maybe you were dreaming the sensations that you felt, but looking down at your waist and seeing the tattooed hand that was splayed across your stomach confirmed: Mattheo had stayed through the night. You stretched your arms out in front of you, stretching out your muscles from sleep and the other previous nights activity.
Mattheo must have thought you were trying to get up from the action, his arm that was wrapped around you instinctively pulling you closer to his chest. His face burrowed into your neck, breath fanning against your skin as his breathing stayed even. You allowed him to embrace you a little longer, getting lost in your thoughts, thinking about what everything in the last 12 hours meant. Were you and Mattheo together now, like officially together? Would he tell the others? Were you even allowed to talk about it? You tried your best to fall back asleep, if only until Mattheo woke up, but your mind wasn’t slowing down.
Reluctantly peeling his arm from you slowly, you slipped from the bed, putting on your slippers and heading down to the kitchen. You knew Gimball would make your morning tea for you if you asked, he often makes it for you before you even wake up, but he must have known not to do that this morning. You also didn’t have a house elf at your old place, and you liked the routine of doing some things for yourself still.
As if he expected the change in routine, you walked into the kitchen to see Gimball working on breakfast, but your favorite mug and tea bag sitting on the counter while a kettle was on the stove. “How did you know I’d be down here, Gimball?” You questioned the small elf playfully. Without ceasing his movements he replied to your question, “Gimball knows many things Miss Birdie, especially that Master Mattheo does not like to be disturbed in the mornings.” You smiled at this, cheeks tinting the slight pink at the realization that Gimball knew Mattheo was in your room. Ripping open the teabag and placing it in your mug, you tied the string to the handle before walking over to the whistling kettle.
“You’ve known Mattheo a long time, hmm?” You asked it as if you hadn’t seen into Mattheo’s memories, wanting to see what the elf might say. With a snap of his fingers an array of plates and kitchenware appeared on the large center island, “Gimball has been with the Riddle family for three generations, he remembers Master Mattheo’s birth, taught him his schooling. Master Mattheo is a good man, good man Miss Birdie.” You hummed in acknowledgement, smiling as you poured the hot water into your mug, “Was he good in school?”
You were just fishing for any knowledge about him now, anything you knew he probably wouldn’t tell you, at least not right now. Gimball nodded as he set up all the breakfast food and teas for everyone, “Oh yes, Master Mattheo is very smart, very smart indeed. Very observant, but I’m sure Miss Birdie has already come to knowledge of that.” You huffed out a laugh, nodding your head, “Oh yeah, almost too observant for his own good if you ask me.” Gimball let himself smile at your statement, something you didn’t see him do often. With another snap of his fingers, the food arrangement disappeared from the center island. You knew it was now on the large dinning room table, awaiting everyone in the house as they individually made their way down.
Gimball looked at you again, “Master cares very deeply about Miss Birdie.” You nodded your head, “I know Gimball, he really looks at us like a family. It’s a nice feeling.” Gimball shook his head, waving his small finger in the air, “No, Miss Birdie misunderstands Gimball. His care for her is different than the others. Master Mattheo is not always good with his words. Sometimes he cannot express how he feels properly. Master was not allowed to say his feelings when he was little.”
You opened your mouth to ask him to explain further, to tell you what he meant by his last few statements but the opening of the kitchen door caught your attention. You turned at the intrusion, only to see Mattheo standing in the doorway, now completely clothed for the day in a pair of black slacks and a white button up rolled to the elbows, displaying the veins and tattoos that decorated his forearms. You were clearly gawking and if Mattheo noticed (which he probably did) he was polite this morning and chose not to acknowledge the fact.
“What’re you doing in here?” was his question instead. You turned back around, only to see Gimball had apparated away. Turning back to Mattheo you held your mug up to your lips, taking a small sip, “Tea.” He quirked an eyebrow, “You know Gimball would’ve made that for you.” You nodded, “I know, but I like to do it myself sometimes.” Mattheo held the door open for you to exit, following close behind you as you did so. “You left me this morning, woke up to an empty bed and pillows that smelled like you,” he whispered in your ear, giving your hip a light squeeze. You smirked at this, not being able to help your quip back, “Mmm, what a bummer of a feeling. Thankfully I was still in the house and you didn’t wake up like that only to find me gone for days on end.”
Mattheo’s eyebrows shot up, his tongue running along the inside of his cheek as he suppressed a smirk. “We’ve got an attitude this morning I see,” he spoke as he sat down next to you at the table. You shook your head, “I would never get an attitude with you, Mattheo.” He huffed out a small laugh then, pilling food onto his plate and choosing not to respond. Soon the others started to trail in, thankfully most of them still in their sleepwear making you not feel like the only one.
Once finished with breakfast Mattheo placed a small kiss on your temple, stating he needed to go to the club early to take care of a few things before the night started. He took Pansy and Draco with him, leaving you at the table with Blaise, Theo and Enzo. The three wore devious smirks, Enzo’s eyes down at his plate avoiding yours. Theo, however, had no shame, pointing his fork at you while he talked, “So, sorella, have a good night?” You glared at him, “Fine, thanks.” Theo gave you a knowing look, “Enjoy it with anyone else?”
This question caused Enzo to choke slightly on his sip of orange juice, the other two men not holding back their laughter. “Serves your right, Enzo,” you stated harshly. The lanky man held up his arms, “Hey, I never said anything!” You rolled your eyes, “But you were smirking like you thought you knew something and obviously agree with Teddy.” Blaise tapped his fork on his glass, grabbing everyone’s attention, “Alright alright, lets stop teasing the poor girl. If anything did happen, which were not saying it did,-”
“or didn’t!” Theo pointed out. Blaise nodded, “Or didn’t,” you rolled your eyes, “can we all just agree that tonight is going to be interesting as hell. Well for us,” he gestured between himself and Theo and Enzo, “maybe not for you, Birdie.” You furrowed your brows in confusion, not understanding the implications of his statement. “Why is tonight going to be interesting for everyone but me, Blaise? What’s happening?” Theo couldn’t stop himself from laughing, clutching his stomach and rearing back in his seat. Enzo gave you a sad smile, “Because there’s a new dancer coming tonight. The one you covered for quit and Pansy said the new one is coming for her first shift this evening.”
You shrugged your shoulders, stuffing another piece of fruit in your mouth, “Okay, so? I don’t care about that. I only danced that one time because Mattheo said I couldn’t. I like bartending with you Enzo. Why would a new dancer make me upset?” Theo leaned both elbows on the table, clasping his hands in front of him as his tilted his head to the side, “Because this girl is proper fit, like, thank you fucking Salazar fit.” You rolled your eyes, “Again…so? All the dancers are fit, Teddy. You’re just a horndog.” Blaise jumped in, “Mattheo used to have a reputation…with dancers.” You stiffened slightly, but waved your hand telling him to continue, “It’s stopped since you came around, for some reason,” he raised his eyebrows slightly, “Everyone’s just curious to see how it will go.”
You placed your fork on your place, dabbing your lips with the napkin from your lap before standing, “Mattheo’s a big boy. I don’t control him, he can do what he wants. Like I said, there’s nothing going on between us, I’m just like the rest of you guys to him.” Theo snorted at this, while Enzo groaned. Blaise just shrugged his shoulders, “Whatever you say, Birdie. Just know if you feel like fighting, I’m on your side.” You couldn’t help but laugh at everyone’s dramatic reactions, “Thank you, Blaise, but I’m sure that wont be necessary. Everything’s going to be fine.”
And it appeared so for the first few hours you were at the club. You and Enzo worked together restocking the bar while Blaise and Theo sat on the stools, going over plans for different ‘business trips’ and other ordeals. You didn’t push it, but did try to sneak a glance or two at what they were working on. You had grown apparently too close to Theo those few days because he immediately caught you. Giving you a playful scolding for even trying.
Nothing seemed a bother until you went to put up two new bottles of rum and nearly slammed into the side of Enzo. “What are you-” you went to question but Enzo’s large hand palmed the top of your head like a basketball and turned it until your line of vision was the same as his. Immediately you felt like your body was on fire with rage.
Across the club Pansy was standing with Mattheo and a brunette woman. She was wearing what you would barely consider clothing in a skirt so short it was practically knickers and a top that was so small you figured there had to be a spell put on it for her breasts not to be spilling out. But that wasn’t even the bother as most of the dancers dressed in similar attire. What was bothering you was the way Mattheo was interacting with her.
It wasn’t like he was coming on to her, but it wasn’t like he was being her boss either. Though it was very apparent that she was coming on to him. Touching his arm, twirling her hair between her fingers, biting her lip. And Mattheo wasn’t helping, leaning slightly in to her touch, giving her a devilish grin. “What a fucking slag,” the words slipped from your mouth before you could stop them and Blaise nearly choked on his drink.
“Mattheo or Trixie?” Theo asked, knowing that using the girls name would probably instill more rage in you. Your eyebrows shot up, a scoff leaving your lips. Enzo groaned, “Cmon, Nott. Don’t rile her up more.” You opened your mouth to respond but it only dropped further in shock when you saw Mattheo tuck a stray hair behind Trixie’s ear. The three boys followed your gaze, all beginning to mumble amongst themselves about how everything was going to play out.
Jealousy is a sexy look on you, Princess, Mattheo’s voice rang between your ears as your eyes snapped to meet his. The fucker had the audacity to smirk at you before giving his attention back to the girl. You slammed a glass down on the counter, not breaking it but definitely causing a sound loud enough for all eyes to turn to you. “Oi, watch it, Birdie. Do you have any idea how much those glasses cost?” You hadn’t noticed Draco walk up to the bar before your actions, too focused on the growing grin Mattheo wore at your increased rage.
Then an idea popped into your head, a definitive way to get back at Mattheo being a right prick. You walked from behind the bar, coming now to stand in front of Draco who only eyed you suspiciously. “Hi Dray,” your voice sickly sweet, “Have any dinner plans?” Draco looked to the other three boys, obviously asking for an explanation of your question. Theo rolled his eyes but Blaise only chucked, “She’s plotting something to get back at Riddle. Seems like your her pawn, Malfoy.”
Draco raised his eyebrows as he looked down at you, “This true, Darling? You trying to use me to get back at cousin? What’d he do- ohh, I see now.” Draco glanced over top of you at Mattheo still talking with Trixie, his focus slightly less strict now that he noticed you grab hold of Draco’s bicep. Meeting your eyes again Draco shrugged, “You know what, fuck it. Matt’s been a dick to me lately, serves him right.”
You sealed happily, clasping your hands together, “Seriously? Oh, Merlin, thank you so much!” You wrapped your arms around Draco’s middle, smushing your face into his upper abdomen. “Easy, there. Don’t want him to kill me before we get to the main event,” Draco joked. You pulled back, smile still evident. Enzo just shook his head, “You sure bout this, Angel?”
Nodding, you walked back round the bar, “Oh I’m sure. Wanna go around 9, Dray? There’s no way he’d leave in the middle of busy hours. You can handle the bar yourself tonight, right Enzie?” You turned to your friend with pleading eyes. Enzo nodded, “Yeah, yeah, I’ll be fine. I’ll make Pansy help if needed.” You hugged Enzo now, who let out a low chuckle and patted your back.
“I’ll leave a dress for you in the dancers changing room, you’ll get dressed here and I’ll make sure he sees you before we leave,” Draco was looking down at his phone as he spoke. You nodded, “Okay, sounds good.” He sent you a wink before walking back towards the office. You looked at the clock, noting you had four hours to get through before you could implement your plan.
Those hours seemed to drag, Enzo constantly reminding you to not watch the clock and just work. When you saw it was 8:30 you gave Enzo’s arm a light squeeze to let him know you were going to get ready. In the changing rooms you saw a garment bag with your name etched on it. Always showing off money, huh, you thought in your head. Unzipping the bag your face was graced with a smirk. Inside hung a velvet ruched bodycon minidress in a deep emerald green. The chest a sweetheart neckline with a slightly deeper plunge.
Slipping it on you were delighted with the outcome. The dress contouring every curve of your body, hiding the insecure bits and accentuating your assets. Doing your hair in loose waves and applying some light makeup, you slipped on the black heels Draco had included and walked out of the changing room, nearly running into the one person you’d hoped would see you.
Grabbing hold of your waist, Mattheo eyed you questioningly, “Where do you think you’re going?” You rolled your eyes, which only irritated him further, “Don’t worry boss, I’m not dancing. I’m just going to dinner.” This didn’t make Mattheo stop worrying, if anything he worried further. “Dinner? With fucking who?”
“With me, cousin,” Draco walked into the hall, clad in a pair of sleek black trousers and a black button up, “My, my, you look ravishing, darling.” You peeled Mattheo’s hands from your hips, turning to the blonde boy now, “Thank you, Dray. You ready?” Draco nodded, holding out his arm for you to take. You looped your arm in his, glancing over to Mattheo once more to see his face in a deep scowl, jaw clenched. You smirked, flashing him a wink. Jealousy looks sexy on you, Teo, you thought to him just as Draco apparated to the restaurant.
As expected, dinner was wonderfully expensive and posh. Draco surprisingly keeping conversation with you quite well. You even complimented him on it, “I didn’t think I’d every see this side of you Draco. It’s…nice.” Draco snorted slightly, “Figured I’d give an effort since you’re going to be my family one day.” You smiled, “Awh, aren’t we already family Dray? All playing house in that big manor?” Draco shook his head, smirking now, “I meant with what’s going on between you and cousin.”
You rolled your eyes, “Why does everyone keep saying shit like that? I’m sure he doesn’t treat me any differently than any of the other girls he’s shagged.” Draco’s grin grew two sizes, “So you guys have fucked? More than once or…?” You glared at him, “You’re insufferable.” The blonde just smiled more, “You know I’ve known him my whole life, seen him with a lot of girls, and I mean a lot of girls-” You cut him off quickly, “Thank you Draco, move on please.” He snickered lightly, “I’m just saying, I’ve never seen him act like he does with any other girl he’s been around except you. He’s kind of always seen women as a means to an end, like they’re just there for him when he wants them to be, then he can throw them away when he doesn’t.”
A frown painted your face, not wanting to see Mattheo in that kind of light, but knowing Draco was likely telling the truth. Draco continued, “He’s protective over you, not like he is with the rest of us. It’s like…possessive. Obsessed. He used to be really off the wall wild with every trip we made with the business, but now he’s doing more strategic planning, like he doesn’t want anyone to get in to much danger, like he has something to look forward to when he gets back.”
Your chest warmed with this new information, “You’re really close with him.” Draco nodded, “We were best mates growing up. Mum’s are sisters, but his was always off with his dad, you know him,” you nodded with a grimace, “so he would stay with my family a lot. Even had his own room at mine. I know we call each other cousin but he was practically a brother to me growing up, until I went away to school. His dad didn’t let him go to Hogwarts, wanting to train him like some sort of secret weapon for the war.” You nodded your head, remembering the memories you intruded on with Mattheo.
“He used to beg me to teach him everything I learned during summer Holiday. He caught on so fast too. Used to keep my old textbooks and practice with Gimball while I was away. When the war came he was really conflicted. Hell, we all were. I’m surprised you even came to the club after everything that happened. Didn’t you know…about us?” His question caught you a little off guard. Sure, you had known of Draco in school, he made it practically hard for someone not to know him. And you knew slightly of the others, just that they were similar to Draco, purebloods with family members that were devoted Dark Lord followers, but it had been a few years, everyone kind of grew up, looked a little different. Everyone but Draco, sticking still to his signature looks.
You shrugged, “I knew of the club, knew it was wizard ran, but I didn’t know by who. I definitely didn’t know you guys worked there. Had no real clue about Mattheo at all until Pansy told me. Voldemort definitely kept that secret well.” Draco nodded. You looked up from your plate now, meeting his eyes, “If Mattheo really saw me in the way you imply he does, why was he flirting with a dancer earlier today.” Draco’s lip twitched like he was holding back a smile, “Sometimes old habits die hard. Sometimes we get scared of the feelings we have because they happen so deeply, like nothing we’ve ever had before. And sometimes, when we’re especially stubborn, we just need someone to put us in our place. Take charge, so to speak, to prove to us that they reciprocate what we’re feeling, even to the deepest of depths.”
You quirked an eyebrow at his words, questioning if you were really understanding what he was saying. Draco sighed slightly, “I know Mattheo. I’ve seen him in many stages of life, many emotions, good and bad. He’s never allowed himself to feel as deeply about a person as he does for you because he knows once he starts falling, he’s never going to stop. If you feel the same, you have to show him. If you want what he wants, prove it to him. But you have to play his game. Don’t be a pawn, be a gamekeeper. Show him who’s boss, I’m sure he’s tired of the title.”
Draco paid the bill before taking you both back to the manor. Like a gentleman he walked you to the steps leading up to the rooms. “Thank you for tonight, Draco. It was lovely.” Draco smiled down at you, placing a friendly hand on your shoulder. He leaned in close, giving you a peck on your cheek and whispering in your ear, “Anytime darling.” He gave you a curt wink before walking toward his office on the main floor. You turned round, heading up the steps and walking into your room.
He had probably hoped to startle you, but you had almost expected him to be there waiting for you. “Have fun tonight, Princess? Fuck my cousin? Was he good?” You huffed a laugh, taking off your jewelry and setting it atop your dresser before turning to face him. “Don’t be brash, Teo,” you looked him over, sitting in the chair in the corner of the room. His hair was disshelved like he’d been running his hands through it. Which he had been while waiting for you and Draco to come home. The thoughts in his mind spinning wildly about what could have happened.
You walked towards him across the room, him standing to meet you when you push him back down, crawling into his lap. “Draco and I just had dinner,” your fingers started to delicately undo the buttons of his shirt, all the way down before pushing it off his shoulders, “just like I said before we left.” He grunted, unconvinced, his hands going to your waist but you pushed them off, “I didn’t say you could touch me.” He tilted his head slightly, looking at you with a sly grin. You reached between your bodies, unbuttoning his trousers and sliding down the zipper.
You stood up then, Mattheo going to follow once more but you tsked at him, “Sit and take off your pants, briefs too,” you leaned down and whispered in his ear, “I want to see all of you, handsome.” Mattheo felt his cock twitch at your words, at your directions. He wasn’t sure what was happening but he knew he wanted to find out. You walked back towards the bed, just a few feet away, slipping your dress off your shoulders to reveal your bare breasts and black thong to the man across from you.
Mattheo couldn’t help but groan at the site, his cock standing at attention as you slid your panties down your legs before you climbed onto the foot of the bed before turning to face him, legs spread open wide so he got a full view of your glistening cunt. Mattheo groaned at the sight. “You can touch yourself, Teo. Go on,” you encouraged and he followed directions, instantly grabbing hold of his thick cock and pumping himself, “Show me what you wish you were doing to me,” you let your hands cup your breasts, squeezing them lightly causing Mattheo to groan at the view, his eyes rolling, “because tonight you don’t get to touch me at all.”
His eyes shot open then, hand stilling on his length. You pouted at him, mocking his frown, “Don’t stop now, baby. I was enjoying the view.” You lightly slid your hand up the insides of your thighs, giving yourself goosebumps. Mattheo watched with hungry eyes as you took two fingers and glided them through your folds, coating your fingers in your slick before rubbing your clit lightly. “Keep touching yourself, baby, let me see you,” you started applying more pressure on your bundle of nerves, slight whimpers leaving your mouth as Mattheo started slowly guiding his hand up and down his length once more.
When you slid two fingers inside of yourself, eliciting a gasp from your lips you didn’t miss Mattheo’s low, “Fucking hell”, glancing a look at his desperate eyes. Pumping your fingers you couldn’t help but tease him more, “You’re being such a good boy for me, Teo. Oh, fuck, my fingers stretch me so good, but not as good as when I’m stretched around you, Oh, god, Teo.” Hearing his name fall from your lips while he watched you pleasure yourself was his idea of torture. Your hips bucked against your hand, your clit hitting your palm with every grind and building the familiar heat in the pit of your stomach, “Fuck, Teo, I wish I was about to come on your cock, but you just had to misbehave this afternoon, didn’t you?”
His nostrils flared at your words, speech stuttering as his thumb swiped over his slit, eyes glued to your fingers pumping in and out of your cunt, “I-I’m sorry, Princess. I didn’t-”
“Shut up,” you moaned out, looking up to see himself pumping his cock faster. You could tell he was close by the amount of precum leaking from his tip. “Stop touching yourself,” you commanded. Mattheo groaned, but listened to instructions. When you saw he had stopped your bucked your hips faster, chasing your high until you were tumbling over the edge into your orgasm, “Fuck, oh fuck, yes.” Mattheo’s dick twitched at the sight of you coming undone, your thighs quaking, clamping shut on your hand as you rode out your high, still pumping your fingers in and out of yourself before you slowed down, catching your breath and making eye contact with him.
You slid your fingers from your cunt, your juices glistening to where Mattheo could see if across the room. “Come taste, baby,” you held your fingers out of him. Mattheo clambered over quickly, immediately latching his lips to your fingers, tongue swirling around your digits to get every last drop. His lips left your fingers with a pop, hands going to grab your thighs to spread them back open for himself. You slapped his hands away, scooting yourself backwards until you reached the head of the bed, leaning against the pillows.
You spread your legs wide, patting the space between them. “C’mere, Teo. Come sit right here, back to me.” Mattheo crawled over to you, lips quickly attaching to yours in a feverish kiss. His palm against your cheek and fingers splayed on the back of your neck holding you steady as his tongue explored your mouth, groaning at the taste of you still on his tongue. With all the mental strength you could muster you push him away, slapping his face lightly.
Immediately Mattheo started apologizing, “I’m so sorry, Princess, I couldn’t, fuck, I just couldn’t help myself.” You shook your head at his ramblings, making a spinning motion with your finger indicating him to turn around and get in the position you instructed him to be in before. Mattheo turned around, lying against your chest. You delicately ran your nails along his thighs, his cock twitching at the action. “I was going to let you cum, maybe even help you, but you broke a rule.”
You grabbed Mattheo’s hand, guiding it back toward his aching cock. As he stroked himself again you ran your nails lightly up his sides, his muscles twitching in your wake. You continued to talk to him, tease him and get him further to the edge, “Last night you were so good to me, making me feel so full.” Mattheo let out a low groan as you trailed kisses along the side of his neck, his strokes becoming quicker, “Love it when you grip my thighs, spreading them open as you sink your big cock into my tight little cunt.”
Mattheo let out a shuddered breath as his thumb swiped over his tip. You grab his wrist then, stopping his movements. He let slip a pathetic whimper, begging you for release, “Fuck, please, Princess, I need to cum so bad.” His chest was heaving, head resting back against your shoulder. You ran your fingers through his hair, scratching at his scalp, “Do you deserve that, Teo? Do you deserve to cum after blatantly flirting with that fucking slag right in front of me, hmm?” Mattheo groaned, “Fucks sake, I said I was sorry, you went out with c-cousin I should be p-punishing you.”
He stuttered over his words as you raked your nails up his thighs again, massaging just near where he wanted your touch but not giving in. “We just had dinner, just talked. If you thought it was anything more you would’ve hurt him by now.” You released his wrist, allowing him to pleasure himself once more. “Go on, baby,” you wrapped one arm around his shoulders, the other grabbing hold of his hair, pulling his head back with force. “Tell me who you’re thinking about when you touch yourself, is it her or is it me?”
Mattheo let out a guttural moan, “Fuck, Princess, it’s you. O-only you.” You started kissing up his neck again, biting the taught skin before licking to soothe it, making sure to leave a few marks. “Every time I think of you, fuck, and now I have the image of your tight little cunt stretching around my cock so perfectly. I never want anything else, oh gods.” You could tell he was close now, hips bucking into his hand. You brought your lips close to his ear, breath ghosting over his skin, “Cum for me, baby. Be a good boy.”
At your command a deep grunt left his throat, hot ropes of white shooting from his tip and on to the duvet in front of him. Coming down from his high he relaxed into you further, chest heaving as his breathing slowly evened out. You ran your fingers through his hair, kissing his temple. “Fucking Salazar’s sake, Princess, you trying to kill me now, hmm?” You smiled into his skin, “You did this to yourself, sir.”
He smiled lightly, “I said I’m sorry, Princess. Merlin, if I'd known this is what would happen from some simple flirting I would’ve never started.” He turned round, resting his head on your chest now. You hummed lightly, “I think you more than liked what just happened.” Mattheo pinched the side of your bum lightly, causing you to squeal. He turned his head, resting his chin atop your chest before leaning up slightly and catching your lips in a chaste kiss one, two, three times before laying his head back down.
You stayed like that for a moment before he broke the silence, “The boys say I’m growing attached to you.” You smiled slightly, hands running through his messy curls, “Do you agree with them?” He nodded, “Scares me how much I care about you, Birdie.” You frowned slightly, though he couldn’t see it, “Why does it scare you?” His eyes fluttered shut, you playing with his hair soothing him. He slid his hands beneath the underside of your shoulders, holding you as close as possible, “Means I’ve got something to lose.”

Mean friend~ mattheo riddle
Includes: mentions of toxic relationship (kinda), innocent!reader, crybaby!reader, readers friend being mean, and tooth rotting fluff
Tumblr media
“Im just saying that he doesn’t treat you right y/n. I wouldn’t be in a relationship like that.” She said trying to get you to agree with her. You let out a whine of disagreement.
“But he does treat me right! He’s really sweet, it’s just, that you don’t see the good part in him” you said trying to reason with her.
She scoffed before cutting you off. “Y/n look, a guy who ignores you sometimes is not a good one, in a little while I guarantee he’ll get bored of and throw you to the side” she said making you let out a little gasp.
“You really think he’s gonna leave me? Just like that?” You asked her quietly as your eyes began to water at the thought. “I promise it.” She said confirming your worries.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
“Bunny? Where are you my love?” Mattheo called out for you. You were hiding under the bed curled up in a ball. “Go ‘way!” You yelled making him raise an eyebrow at your tone.
He crouched down folding up the large blanket covering your figure underneath the bed. “What’s the matter princess?” He asked you pulling you out form underneath the bed as you fought against his strength.
You huffed in defeat as he pulled you into his chest wrapping his arms around your waist tightly. “You wanna tell me what’s the matter angel?” He questioned you quietly trying to calm down your tiny sobs.
“Chu don’ want me anymore!” You said in between sobs. “What are talking about baby? Of course I want you.” He said pressing a kiss against your cheek.
You couldn’t help but melt into his arms at his comforting tone. “But f/n said that you were gonna leave me because-” you tried to explain but stopped once you heard him let out a scoff.
He mumbled something under his breath that you couldn’t figure out before gliding his hand over your hair. You furrowed you eyebrows on how his face turned into an angry stare once you brought up her name.
“Baby I promise I will never ever leave you. What she said was wrong.” He reassured you as your tears and sobs turned into sniffles.
“Love you so much my pretty girl” he whispered in your ear. “Love you too” you whispered back.
“Such a good girl for me” he praised you. Your heart fluttered as your eyes shut in contentment.
That’s all you wanted to be. His good girl

everything and everyone was on edge.
for the past two weeks the feds had been down your neck, jeopardizing your whole lifestyle and way of work.
everyone was in a pissy mood because of it—because when the feds were on your ass, that meant having to be careful, and your job was hard thing to be careful about when every move you made was highly incriminating. so when being careful, you barely got to work, and no work meant no profit.
it was hard to specify exactly what you did.
you were a mobster.
there it is, in the simplest form.
there was a lot of pressure in being one, especially when law enforcement was there to make things ten times harder.
and it wasn’t only affecting you, but entirety of your group;
“you’re a fuckin’ idiot, lorenzo, you realize that? take a fuckin’ look at yourself in the mirror and stare at something that isn’t just your face and realize you’re a fool,” mattheo’s voice erupts so suddenly through the air, startling all of you. “get your shit together.”
it was already starting. you, theodore, blaise, lorenzo, and mattheo had just barely taken a step into one of the many backrooms of the businesses mattheo’s father owned when the composure came fumbling down.
lorenzo had just barely sat his ass in one of the leather seats when the attention was pinned to him, “jesus, what’s up you’re ass m?” he laughs, but you can tell it’s a nervous one. “jesus.”
you glance to theodore who winces at the response like it was his own. that was the worst possible thing to say, especially to mattheo, especially right now where his anger and frustration was at an all time high.
you can see that anger pulse through his skin in a spike as he finally seems to processes lorenzo’s antagonizing words.
oh boy.
“fuckin’ saved your ass, enzo. you know what my fathers saying? that you’re a loose fucking cannon and i need to let you go,” he has his hand raised, shaking it in his face. “and you know what? we don’t let people go. there’s no such thing as letting someone go in our business. that’s a rare ever occurrence.”
letting someone go is disposing them. taking them out to the back and putting them down like a dog.
“get your head on straight and don’t you forget that you wouldn’t be here without me, because you’d be dead.”
“you act like you’re so fucking clear minded,” he huffs, leaning his head against the palm of hand.
that was enough.
mattheo swings himself around, throwing his fist into the face of enzo as hard as he can. you flinch at the sound of enzo’s nose cracking beneath the contact of mattheo's knuckles. you feel yourself tense up at the noise not letting up, but rather playing over and over, filling the room with ugly sounds of punches fill the room.
“mattheo-“
your call out is cut off as theodore takes your shoulder, pulling you back, “don’t.”
“he’s going to kill him.”
“he won’t,” he pulls you even closer and further away from the violent scene unfolding before you all, tightening his grip. “lorenzo’s too viable.”
he was right. even as enzo was a loose canon, he brought in a lot of profit and kept his end clean… for the most part.
lo was too salient for mattheo to kill, but his loud mouth was enough to tip mattheo over the edge.
it was a perfect way for him to blow off steam; beating in the face of his friend.
***
“don’t you look like a dime.”
it’s been a week since mattheo went on his little rampage, and you were now just seeing lorenzo in his healing state.
you’re smiling up at him, pinching his cheek as he rolls his eyes to your attention, “yeah, yeah, get off my back.”
he looked far from a dime; his nose was broken causing both his eyes to sport dark rings of bruising around them while the lining of his jaw was turning a dark purple and yellow.
“you and mattheo civil now?”
“define your idea of civil.”
“well, you’re not dead, so I assume you two are as civil as civil gets in mattheo’s terms.”
he scoffs, “yeah, well, let’s hope mattheo and his father are on the same page and I don’t end up dead in the next week.”
over a month ago, some of lorenzo’s boys hijacked a truck everyone was told specifically not to mess with despite the fair amount of profit that could come from it. and unfortunately, they dug themselves an already deep hole, deeper by obtaining the truck through a casualty.
lorenzo had received the blame, despite it having nothing to do with him other than the men being under his supervision and responsibility. he had to pay for it, and he did…
“you’re on the higher end of things, he won’t kill you.”
“that’d be the exact reason for him to kill me,” lorenzo corrects you. “I’m on the higher end for a reason, i can’t fuck up.”
you press your lips into a thin line at the thought of his words. mattheo’s beating must’ve really enlightened lorenzo because there was rarely ever a moment you caught him in such a grave mood where he was so in touch with reality.
his attitude on life was light and so unserious; you were unsure on how mattheo even recruited him when that was the exact opposite that this job sought out for. but then again, the boy recruited all of you.
“then don’t fuck up,” he laughs lightly, but it’s caught in the back of his throat. “again.”
“great advice, y/l/n,” he glances at you, “really got that one on the nose.”
“don’t be a douche,” you slap him lightly. “I don’t know what you want me to say, lo. you’re alive, you’ll stay that way too as long as you don’t press your luck.”
“hard to press my luck when I don’t have any in the first place.”
you gaze at the side of his face, attempting to gage the general emotion or even thought process going through his head, but there was nothing. not even his usual perma-smile could be found.
***
“someone approached me awhile ago-“
“who?”
“doesn’t matter who—a clients girlfriend,” lorenzo is anxious, pacing back and forth before all of you in the backyard of mattheo’s home. “i was offered a deal.”
you wince immediately.
lorenzo had collected the whole lot of you; everyone except mattheo. you all sat on his back deck, fixating between the full beautiful greenery backyard of the riddle home and lorenzo, who hadn't spoken till now.
a deal.
he should’ve stopped there.
“a deal?” blaise arched a brow, now leaning on his forearms that rest on his knees. “what kind of deal?”
you all knew exactly what type of deal it was.
enzo’s eyes don’t reach any yours, but he’s stopped pacing, wondering whether he should really speak it now.
don’t say it.
“immunity,” he says it flat out, bringing truth to all of your thoughts. but he doesn’t seem ashamed to this with the way he looks at each and every one of you in the eye finally. “she said once we all get impounded, there’s a way out for me.”
once. not if.
“i tell them everything. i rat every single one of you out and i’m given immunity.”
you all look up at him like he’s crazy. and he is; to be speaking like this to a bunch of mobsters—threatening the entirety of their life and business is crazy.
“we get thirty years plus. there’s no doubt. they get us and we’re already laid in our graves before trial because what we’ve done is absurd-“
“are you saying you’re a rat, berkshire?”
“no,” he shakes his head fast. “no, not at all.”
“that’s not what i’m hearing,” draco shakes his head. “i’m hearing you’re getting nervous with all this recent snooping of the feds and you’re fuckin’ rat.”
“fuck off, malfoy. i’m just telling you what i was told. i’m not a goddamn rat. i’d have to be mental to give up all we’ve done-“ his hand finds his forehead and he’s pacing again. “fuck if i even remember half of it.”
you’re all back to silence, thinking about this. rat or not, this did not look good for him.
your eyes suddenly settle on the light and distant bruising under enzo’s eyes; finally healing. you think about mattheo beating in his face over and over, and then you think about what he’d do if he ever found out about lorenzo’s offer.
“they have a lot of shit on mattheo.”
you all look back up to lorenzo now, a certain interest now crossing each of you again.
“what type of shit exactly?”
“type of shit you don’t get parole with… or out of jail for that matter,” he looks even more stressed than before. “she said the rest of you could have chances of a life after serving. not him.”
this wasn’t a surprise. mattheo always had a quality that none of you did when it came to getting things done; something sociopathic. he always took risk without question of consequence. he moved in silence, he didn’t hesitate, didn’t think, he always got things done faster than all of you combined.
so if mattheo did something beyond all of your usual tasks, you wouldn’t be surprised.
“i mean that makes sense, matty’s been at this longer than the rest of us,” you reasoned it out, only to be stopped immediately.
“no, you don’t understand,” enzo shook his head.
“what exactly are we not understanding here, enzo? you seem to know something, so why don’t you just spit it out,” theodore sits up, speaking for once. there’s obvious annoyance and distaste in his mouth as he stares at the boy before you with a narrowed look.
lorenzo pauses, looking back at him with the same look. you can tell there’s a thought process behind his eyes, and his anxiousness is slowly melting away.
“you know, where do you guys think this is all going? genuinely. you think we’re going to spend the next couple of months running clubs, collecting money, and beating up the occasional person that’s late on their payments for fun?” lorenzo has turned sour, looking at each of you almost as if he hates you all for your ignorance. “this is for life, and we’re only at the beginning point.”

Mattheo’s Gamble
Anguished by your tragic passing in the Second Wizarding War, Mattheo makes a bet with the Grim Reaper to get you back (features different AUs)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mattheo Riddle x Reader
Official entry for @thatdammchickennugget's Hogmarch challenge, prompt 3.
Author's note: Steering off the prompt a bit as I have no idea how to write sports so here's another 'game' I thought of. I usually prefer writing full fics but this idea is so complex, enjoy this bite sized version instead.
✿ Masterlist | 677 words
Tumblr media
♡ They had no right to take you away from him, Mattheo seethes as he strides into the Grim Reaper's lair.
♡ He had sacrificed way too much in the war only to lose what's most important to him in the end.
♡ Mattheo pleads his case, the Grim Reaper has to revive you. You are meant to be together in every single lifetime, losing you in this one is a mistake. It was never meant to happen.
♡ Mattheo doesn't actually know if it's true, but he is desperate.
♡ The Grim Reaper agrees to his request, if he wins a wager. He and Mattheo will visit three different lifetimes to test his theory. If proven correct that you always end up together across different lives, Grim Reaper is ready to correct the mistake and revive you fully, as if you never left at all.
♡ But if Mattheo is wrong, he would have to spend a hundred years in damnation. Mattheo believes he has nothing left to lose so he agrees to the wager with no hesitation.
Ancient Egypt AU
⛺︎ In the first lifetime Mattheo and the Grim Reaper visit, you are the pharaoh's daughter, beloved by all people.
⛺︎ Mattheo is the high court magician, highly favored by your father.
⛺︎ You and Mattheo grew up together and eventually become lovers. Your father would not approve if he found out so you keep it a secret.
⛺︎ Meanwhile, your father is arranging a strategic marriage for you.
1800s AU
☾ You and Mattheo meet while taking an extended vacation with your family. He’s staying in the same hotel as you and you become fast friends.
☾ It doesn't take long for the two of you to fall in love and promise to write each other letters to stay in touch.
☾ After your departure, you send him a letter but never hear from him again, thinking he has moved on.
☾ Forty years later, a mailman takes his last shift before retirement. While clearing an old pile of mail, he finds your letter wedged in between cabinets. Mattheo never received your letter.
☾ The mailman takes it upon himself to track down Mattheo to deliver your letter, his first adventure after retiring.
Mafia AU
⭐︎ The final life Mattheo and the Grim Reaper visit. You and Mattheo come from two warring gangs. He's one of the leaders of his gang, whereas your father is the leader in their rival gang.
⭐︎ To keep you safe, your father hid his world away from you and the mafia doesn’t know much about your existence either.
⭐︎ One day, your father disappears. To investigate his whereabouts, you go undercover in the rival gang to gather intel. They assign you to the subgroup that Mattheo leads.
Between the Grim Reaper and Mattheo
♡ The Grim Reaper reveals he chose the hardest timelines for you and Mattheo to end up together. During their journey across the different AUs, the Grim Reaper throws in more obstacles on your path.
♡ "Filthy cheater," Mattheo accuses the Grim Reaper.
♡ "Did you think I was going to go easy on you?" he replies with a cold smile. "I thought you were so sure about this little connection of yours.”
♡ Mattheo grits his teeth but says nothing further.
♡ In the end, you make your relationship work and end up together every single lifetime, against all odds. Thus proving that love is its own kind of magic. And oh, it is one of the most powerful.
♡ The Grim Reaper is amused by the whole wager and holds up his end of the bargain by reuniting you back with Mattheo.
♡ "How?" you ask, looking into Mattheo's eyes once you get a moment to catch your breath from all the happy tears and the vice grip of his embrace.
♡ "Would you believe me if I told you it was the power of love?" he asks.
♡ You laugh, "who are you and what have you done with my Mattheo?"
♡ "I'm right here love and you're here," he says, pulling you back into another hug, savoring the moment. Just as it was always meant to be, he thinks.
Cue Taylor Swift's Timeless: 'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this so, even in a different life, you still would've been mine, we would've been timeless.

Tumblr media
[Chapter 1]
Pairing: Mattheo Riddle x Reader
Word count: ~3.5k
Warning: slow burn, nothing too intense…yet
an: this is my main work right now, I’m super excited for it. I will not be doing a taglist for this story but I will be working on it consistently so updates will come when they come but I plan on being pretty consistent. Feedback is welcome and highly encouraged 🤗
Pulling the sleeves of your jumper over your fingers, you tucked your hands under your armpits as you made your walk from the diner to the club around the corner. You’d say you weren’t sure how you got here, but that would be a lie. You did your best to suppress a shiver that was creeping up your spine as the cool night air bit at the skin of your neck.
The red glow of the club sign lit up that portion of the street. Protego. It was a clever name for the club really. To any passing muggle it seemed like any other foreign fancy name for a stip club, but the owners knew what they were doing. Protego, in the wizarding world, was a protection spell, and that’s exactly what this club was for Mattheo and his cronies; a protected space, the home hub. Any wizard that had ill intentions wouldn’t be able to step foot on the premises, which was exactly what you were hoping for.
Standing at the edge of the parking lot you did your best to straighten your skirt before deciding to hike it up a bit higher. You pulled the strappy heels you had packed out of your bad and put them on before pulling your jumper off to reveal the low cut top you had put on. You did your best to appear confident as you walked up to the club door, but the ocean eyes of the bouncer giving you a once over made a chill run up your spine.
The bouncer was tall, broad shoulders with a mess of brown waves on his head. His tongue ran along his bottom lip as he did nothing to suppress his smirk, “You lost, dolcezza?” His tone mocking as his eyes roamed your form. Your body flushed under his gaze, him shamelessly taking in your appearance.
You pulled your shoulders back, ignoring every fiber in your being that told you to run, to change your mind, that coming here was a bad idea. “I was wondering if you guys were hiring any more dancers,” you kept your tone even despite the screaming between your ears.
The man in front of you scoffed, “You want to be a dancer?” You did your best to hold eye contact as you nodded, crossing your arms over your stomach with the sudden feeling of self consciousness. You averted your gaze as he smirked at you again, not saying anything.
The door opened suddenly behind him causing you to flinch and step back. A woman with neat black hair appeared in the doorway, a scowl on her face, “I swear to fuck, Nott, I told you to stop pulling that fucking legilimens bullshit on me when you’re too lazy to use your fucking phone.”
The man, Nott, finally broke his stoic facade, rolling his eyes at the woman, “Oh, per favore, Pansy, you know I hate that muggle bullshit.” Pansy peered around Nott, glancing at you up and down as he did before, “This the girl?”
He nodded, smirk annoying plastered on his face once more, “Said she wants to be a dancer.” Pansy furrowed her brows, coming fully outside of the club before taking you by the shoulders and forcibly turning you around so your back was facing her. “Hmm, it could work, should I bring her to Mattheo?”
You shook her hands off, turning yourself back to face them, “Erm, who is Mattheo?”
Nott flashed his teeth in a charming smile, “Mattheo, dolce mia, is the boss.”
xx
You did your best to follow Pansy towards the back of the club. It was much larger on the inside than it appeared, you were sure thanks to a charm that was placed on the building. You assumed the alcohol the muggles seemed to be guzzling down helped them ignore the clear disproportion.
You marveled at the girls on the different stages throughout the room, some two to a stage. How their bodies seemed to move, how they just narrowly seemed to sway away from the men’s touches but still appear desirable.
“Don’t fall behind, pretty witch like you would get swallowed alive out here without direction,” Pansy continued to maneuver around tables, ignoring the eyes of patrons with ease while you felt like bugs were crawling on your skin from the men peering at you with every step.
You quickened your pace slightly to catch up with her, holding your bag tight to your side until you both came to a large black door. Pansy lifted her fist, rapping once with her knuckles, then twice quickly, then a singular time once more.
The door seemed to open on its own, as the only people in the room were a tall brooding blonde leaning on the edge of a large black desk, while the other was a man sitting back in a large chair. The man in the chair, while sitting, still emanated a large presence. It was obvious this was Mattheo, the boss. He had dark chestnut curls that seemed to have one or two fall flawlessly over his forehead. His eyes were onyx and they were roaming your figure not dissimilar to Notts earlier in the night.
However unlike Nott you didn’t necessarily feel objectified when Mattheo looked you over, more like he was observing, watching you take in everything around you. The blonde man broke the silence, voice low and almost teasing with his question, “This the bird Theo wanted us to see?”
Pansy put on a tight lipped smile, pushing you further toward the two men, “This is her, tell them your name.” You stumbled forward slightly, stuttering over your name as you did so, internally cursing yourself. The blonde smirked, “Not much confidence, this one, yeah?” He turned to Mattheo, “Gonna need more of that if you wanna be a dancer, Darling.”
You straightened your spine, doing your best to stand straight, “I have confidence.” The blonde scoffed, “Could’ve fooled me, little bird.” You rolled your eyes, not appreciating being talked down to after everything you’d been through in the last few months.
“Please, I’m not going to take insults from someone who looks like they stepped out of the bloody Children of the Corn films.” The blonde’s brows furrowed at your comeback, his grey eyes clouded in confusion as Pansy did her best to hide her laughter. Nonetheless, she helped him out, “It’s a muggle movie, Draco.”
Draco scoffed again, “You bring a bloody muggle in here Pan-” his words were cut off as his necktie tightened around his throat with a twist of your fingers by your side, causing him to choke and cough as he tried to pull it down.
“Not a muggle, but I know enough to be around them and not cause suspicion,” you loosened his tie with another twirl of your hand and Draco gasped for breath. His grey eyes turned to storm as he went to take a step toward you. Mattheo’s hand shot out, grabbing Draco’s arm, “Leave us, cousin.” Draco shook his head, “Fuck, no. You saw what she did she-”
“Malfoy. Now. And take Parkinson with you,” Mattheo’s voice was low and authoritative, causing Draco to merely scowl in your direction. He threw open the office door, Pansy following quickly behind him and shutting it on her way.
You never turned your back, staying facing Mattheo at his desk. “Sit,” he pointed to the chair directly in front of him. Like a scared pup, you obeyed. Any confidence you had towards Draco vanished with Mattheo’s strong and commanding tone. You took careful steps, dropping your bag on the floor next to the chair. You tugged slightly at your skirt as you sat.
“Don’t cover up now, Princess. If a dancer is what you’re seeking to be, you’re going to have to be comfortable showing a lot more than upper thigh,” Mattheo’s face was unreadable, blankness in both his eyes and his expressions. You couldn’t help but shift in your chair opening your mouth to respond before Mattheo cut you off.
“You can be a bartender, but not a dancer,” he started writing something down, ignoring your expressions in response. “But I came here for…why not a dancer?” Mattheo sat his pen down, finally making direct eye contact with you. It seemed his eyes changed with his mood, and from what you saw he clearly wasn’t used to being questioned.
You did your best to hold eye contact, despite the erratic beating of your heart that you were sure he could hear. “You’re not fit to be a dancer, you’d do better as a bartender,” reading the look on your face, Mattheo did his best to restrict rolling his eyes before he continued, “You said it yourself earlier, you know enough about muggles to be around them but not cause suspicion. A third of our clientele are muggles, much to my cousin's dismay. Enzo does well managing them, but he could use another strong witch to help him out when they get too far gone.”
You perked up slightly at his compliment, “You think I’m a strong witch?” Mattheo stood from his seat, standing up to round the desk and lean back on it in front of you. Merlin, you figured he could be intimidating before, but seeing all of him in front of you; long legs stretched out and crossed at the ankles, arms crossed over his broad chest, you could see how others were quick to listen. Or quick to fall for him.
“Not many people would’ve pulled a stunt like you did on Malfoy, wandless no less,” Mattheo leaned forward, leveling his face with yours. His eyes pierced yours and you did your best to steady your breathing, but it was as if he was peering straight into your soul, into your past with how he was looking at you, “You’ve been through something. I won’t make you tell it to me now, but know if you work here, there’s no secrets. We can’t afford them in this business, on the surface and especially below it.”
He leaned back, allowing you to let go of a breath you weren’t aware you were holding. “How’s your legilimens ability,” he leaned back on his hands, as if the question was the same as ‘how’s the weather today.’
“I, erm, s’okay I guess? S’that something I needed to know if I were to work here? I-I wasn’t aware that-”
Mattheo held his hand up to stop your rambling, “Lets see what Enzo thinks of your abilities first, then we’ll see if it’s necessary. If it is, you'll do lessons with me. Twice a week until I feel like I can trust it.”
You went to ask what he meant when a quick singular rapt at the door caught your attention. With a wave of his hand Mattheo opened the door, “Enzo, this is your new trainee. Teach her the ropes tonight then report back to me. You know what I’m looking for.”
“Yes, boss.” Enzo’s voice behind you seemed calmer than all the others before. Mattheo motioned for you to stand, you did. You turned to face the man that was to be training you the rest of the night. What you didn’t expect was Mattheo’s voice in a whisper next to your ear, “Enzo is charming. Seems the sweetest of all of us, but don’t get fooled, Princess. If I needed it, he’s also the deadliest.”
An uncontrollable chill ran up your spine as Enzo greeted you with a kind smile, motioning for you to follow him. Enzo was the tallest man you’ve interacted with tonight, not as thin as Theo, but just as broad in the shoulders. He had a mop of brown hair and amber eyes that you were sure any girl fell easy for.
His black vest displayed the muscles in his shoulders and arms, one of which was covered in an array of tattoos down to his fingers. With a large hand splayed across the middle of your back he guided you to the side of the club where the bar resided. Immediately upon his return a slew of men were waving cards at him and shouting drinks.
He bent down to whisper in your ear, “Okay, Angel, let’s see how you do. If you don’t know how to make a drink, just mumble a spell into a class with your back turned, the boss said you’re pretty decent with wandless magic.”
You blushed slightly, whether it was the proximity he was to you or another compliment from Mattheo you were unsure, but now you were determined to show how well you could do. At the site of fresh meat, men at the bar were crowding your side, shouting various drinks along with cat calls your way.
They didn’t bother you much, nothing compared to how you’d been talked to before. Enzo’s eyes seemed to be always checking you, even between mixing drinks and grabbing pints it seemed like he was able to watch you. You did your best, grabbing drinks, swiping cards, pouring cocktails.
At last call the men seemed to get more frenzied, more desperate for your attention to drain their minds of their pathetic reality before they had to rejoin it after closing. One man in particular seemed to think he could control you, demand you give him more simply because you appeared weaker, smaller.
When you refused to get him another pint, as he was clearly loaded, he got handsy, grabbing your forearm and attempting to command your attention. Before Enzo got a chance to react you already twisted your arm in the man’s grip, grasping the collar of his shirt and pulling his face down to the bar, “Touch me again and you’re paying with a body part instead of a card, understand?”
The man nodded, a slight whimper leaving his throat. You let him up, him stumbling backwards before running off. You smiled sweetly at the slew of other men standing in front of you, silently asking if anyone else was going to be a problem for you.
Within thirty minutes you had everyone else’s tabs closed and were assisting Enzo with closing up the bar. As you were stacking cocktail glasses Enzo leaned on the bar beside you, “Quite impressive earlier, Angel. Thought I was gonna have to swoop in and save you from that drunk bastard.”
Your suppressed snort, “Despite appearances I can handle my own.” Enzo hummed in agreement, “Boss will like that. Where’d you learn to do that anyway?” You paused your actions, trying to control any color from rushing to your face at the memories of what you went through that caused you to want to be stronger, to learn how to better protect yourself.
“Taught myself, a necessary skill if you will,” you tried to play it off with a sweet smile but Enzo’s eyes told you he wasn’t buying it, only being polite and not pushing. You tried to distract you both, turning instead towards the man carrying a patron towards the door, “He work for the club too or is he just a good samaritan?”
Enzo followed your gaze, a grin spreading across his face, “That’s Blaise. He runs security with Theo, but he does more of the inside while Theo does more of the out. I’ll introduce you when he’s not as busy, real sweetheart if he likes you.” You picked another glass to dry as you kept conversation, “And the others, I know Mattheo’s the boss,” you emphasized the phrase with a playful tone, “but what about Pansy and Draco?”
“Draco’s in charge of finances, amongst other things. While Pansy…well she’s kind of like Mattheo’s assistant,” Enzo’s tone told you there was more to both statements. “What other things? You lot are always saying things that double as another; s’giving me a headache. And assistant like…an actual assistant or like an assistant assistant?”
Enzo couldn’t help but laugh at your questions, “Godric, no, nothing like that. Like she’s his actual assistant, appointments, helping with hiring, the likes. Really keeps the rest of us in order when he’s off doing other business. As for the former question, if you need to know, Angel. You’ll know. Speaking of,”
Enzo titled his head behind you, causing you to turn and see Malfoy walking your way. “Cmon, little bird. Time to take you home.” You walked from behind the bar, “I can apparate home myself thanks, no need for the sitter.”
Draco rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed that he was the one tasked with this, “You don’t have permission to apparate in the building. C’mon, I’m taking you home. It’s not my choice either, a’right?”
“Then I can just leave the building and apparate home. I don’t understand the problem,” you crossed your arms in defiance, which only made Draco more irritated. He held his hand out towards Enzo in a will you please explain motion.
Enzo cleared his throat, “Listen, Angel. Mattheo’s rule is that if you work for him, he knows everything. That includes where you live, it’s gonna be easier just to go with Malfoy then fight it. Although I would love to see that fight, heard she gave you quite the run earlier.” Enzo smirked at the blonde.
“Watch your mouth, Berkshire,” Draco turned to you, holding out his arm, “C’mon little bird, I don’t wanna be at your place all morning.” Resisting further argument, you walked over toward him, grabbing his arm. The familiar feeling of twisting and pulling occurred before landing on your feet in front of your flat.
Draco’s sneer was evident as you grabbed your bag from his other hand and dug around for your keys, “This is where you live?” You scoffed, “Not everyone can live in a manor. Thanks for taking me back. Now you’ve seen it, you can go now.”
A small chuckle left Draco’s throat, “Sorry, birdie, Mattheo wants me to check out the entire flat. So I’m coming inside…unfortunately.” Draco followed you up the steps to the door, his tall figure looming over you as you undid all three locks on your door before mumbling undoing charms as well.
“Quite the security you have, birdie. What’re you afraid of?” Draco’s tone was dripping with curiosity that you weren’t about to entertain, “I’ll tell you my secrets if you tell me yours, Blondie.”
You turned the knob, walking through the door with Draco following. You did your normal routine, kicking off your shoes and hanging up your jumper by the door as Draco walked around your home. You walked into your kitchen, putting on the kettle for a cuppa.
When the kettle whistled you took down two mugs and filled them. Surprisingly Draco took one as he entered the room, taking a sip and making a satisfied humming noise. “Find anything interesting worth reporting back to your boss, Draco?”
He set his mug down, putting his hands in his trouser pockets, “Your boss too now. Enzo made a good report about you, said you held your own pretty well, kept up with orders, were strict when you needed to be and, as you phrased it earlier, blended in.”
A grin started to appear on your face, but quickly dropped at his next sentence, “But Mattheo won’t let you live here.” You leaned against your counter, crossing your arms over your chest, “What the bloody hell does that mean?”
The smile that formed on Draco’s lips was anything but settling, sending a chill to your bones no cup tea could warm, “Enjoy the night here little bird, but it’s gonna be the last in this flat. What you showed tonight has Mattheo thinking he can use you for…real work. I’d get good sleep tonight, birdie. Your legilimency lessons start tomorrow, and Mattheo is ruthless.”
Before you could even open your mouth to respond, Draco disappeared from your kitchen with a pop, leaving you standing there with his words swirling in your mind. As intimidating as the situation sounded, you needed this job. You needed the protection this job provided. You just hoped the cost didn’t outweigh the benefit.

[Chapter 2]
Word count: ~3.5k
Warnings: domestic violence, mentions of blood, mentions of parental death
Small giggles are eventually what give away your location, the doors to the closet bursting open, “I found you, princepesa!” Your mothers voice causing more laughter to erupt from your young throat as she picked you up. She brought you to the bed, fingers ticking your side before pausing, pushing a hair behind your ear, “I’ll always find you, Princepesa. I’ll be there for you no matter what”
A whirring occurred before your eyes, the early memory spinning and swirling until you were thrust into another moment
You left your dolls on the table as your mother called out for you, “Princepesa, look! A letter for you!” You took the envelope from your mother, seeing a crest H on the back with a wax stamp. Your mother came up behind you, wrapping her arms around your shoulders, “Open it, tesoro, your future is in there.”
Another whirring of the memory occurs before your thrust back into the chair in Mattheo’s office. You gasped for breath, using the back of your hand you wiped a few rogue tears that fell across your cheeks.
“I must say, Princess, while I’m bored of all these happy memories you do seem to show strength in protecting your painful ones,” Mattheo used his wand to tilt your chin up, forcing eye contact, “The love you hold for your mother can be used against you, princepesa. Especially in this line of work.”
You scoffed, sniffling slightly, “Don’t worry, she’s dead. Nothing to hold against me anymore.” Mattheo slid his wand up your face, along your cheek and up to your temple, “Now that you’re emotionally drained, maybe I can get to the good stuff…legilimens.”
Immediately you were thrust back into your apartment six months ago, hiding again in a closet but for an entirely different reason. You gathered the bottom of your shirt to hold to your bleeding mouth. Footsteps coming up the stairs caused all your motions to still, the bottom of your shirt now stuffed in your mouth to help conceal any other noises you could make.
“I know you’re up here, sunshine. I just wanna talk, s’no reason to hide. I just lost my temper, you know how I get when you run that pretty mouth of yours.” You squeezed your eyes shut hugging your knees closer to your body. You heard a lamp smash in the room, making you jump slightly. The next moment the closet doors were flung open, him standing over you with a malicious grin, “Found you, sunshine.”
Your head twisted, shaking yourself from the memory, “No…no! I am not reliving that memory for your own selfish gain or understanding or whatever the bloody hell you’re wanting to do.”
Mattheo lowered his wand, setting it on the desk behind him. You flinched slightly when his large palm cupped your cheek, “Who was he, Princess? Where is he now?” You shook your head, lip quivering. Mattheo swiped his thumb over the apple of your cheek, catching the stray tears as they fell.
“I-I don’t know where he is,” you managed to whisper out, “that’s w-why…” Mattheo dragged his thumb over your bottom lip, silencing your next sentence and finishing it himself. “That’s why your flat was so protected.” You nodded, leaning away from his palm.
Mattheo gripped your chin, forcing you to look at him, “You’re safe here, you know that don’t you?” You nodded, peering up at him. “What was his name, Princess?” You tried to shake your head, but Mattheo’s grip on your chin only tightened, “Tell me now or I can find out myself. You don’t want it to be the latter.”
Your bottom lip quivered, “D-Damniano…Damniano Lombardi.” Then Mattheo did something you didn’t expect, still holding your chin but leaning forward, pressing a firm kiss to your forehead. “Go get changed, Princess. Enzo will be waiting for you at the bar.”
He let go of your face, walking round his desk to sit at his chair. You wiped your face with the sleeves of your jumper before standing, “Erm, when d-do you want me to have another lesson?” Mattheo leaned back in his chair grabbing his wand and spinning it between his tattooed fingers, “We’ll take the day off tomorrow, then we’ll get to it again.”
You nodded turning towards the door. “Oh, and Princess,” your looked over your shoulder at his calling, “don’t be afraid to hurt someone if they touch you again. Enzo told me what happened last night.” You gave a tired smirk, nodding before exiting his office and heading towards the dancers dressing rooms.
Sitting down at one of the vanities you stared at yourself in the mirror, taking in your blotchy cheeks. Dry tears stained your skin and your eyes were rimmed red. You looked over the makeup on the counter, trying to decide what would be your best match and how to make yourself look the most presentable.
One of the dancers came to stand behind you, reaching over your shoulder and grabbing a concealer and holding it in front of you, “I’d choose this one, hun. Maybe do a little gold on your eyes, it’d really make them pop.” You smiled at her through the mirror, “Thank you. I’m-”
“I know who you are,” she cut you off with a sweet smile, “I’m Roxy. The boss seems to have taken a liking to you.” You scoffed, “I don’t think that’s true. Seems to be harder on me than anyone else.”
Roxy nodded, grabbing hold of both your shoulders, “That’s how you know he likes you.” She gave your shoulder a quick squeeze before sauntering off further into the dressing rooms. You looked back into the mirror, applying the makeup she picked out and adorning your eyelids with the gold shimmer she suggested. You finished it off with some black mascara before taking a deep breath and changing into your work clothes.
As you came up to the bar you heard a low whistle. Looking up you were met with a smile from Enzo that you couldn’t help but mirror, “Hello to you too, Enz.” You were thankful you’ve only seen the sweet side of Enzo thus far. He made you feel calm in the presence of what seemed like so much chaos.
“How was your first lesson? Was he tough?” Enzo spoke as he filled the ice bins for the night, anticipating a similar crowd as last night. You let out a long sigh, rubbing your temples before meeting Enzo’s eyes again. “That bad huh?” He let out an exasperated laugh.
“Emotionally draining for sure. More than I expected.” Enzo nodded along, “It gets easier the less secrets you try to keep.” You rolled your eyes, “Secrets have been the only thing keeping me safe, Enz. It’s kind of hard to just give them up because some attractive, intimidating man asks me to.”
Enzo’s eyebrows shot up, “Don’t go falling for the boss now, Angel.” You laughed at this, “Merlin, no. I can acknowledge someone’s attractiveness objectively. You’re very attractive too, Enzie.” You threw him a wink and patted his chest as you walked by him, setting up on your side of the bar.
Thankfully the night didn’t have any mishaps like the one before. Beyond most of the men trying to hit on you, the night went smoothly. You and Enzo were finishing cleaning glasses when Blaise sat at the bar, extending his hand to you, “Haven’t had the pleasure of formally meeting yet, love. I’m Blaise. I’d offer you my security services but from what I hear you can hold your own pretty well.”
He sent a wink to punctuate his statement and you couldn’t help the tint of pink that flushed your cheeks, “It was just a drunk muggle, they’re easy to handle.” Blaise didn’t hide the smirk that etched onto his face, “While that’s all fine and dandy, I was more so talking about what you did to shut Malfoy up. Would’ve loved to see that.”
“That’s what I said!” Enzo exclaimed, “Think a little dueling match between them would be fun to watch, eh?” You rolled your eyes at the pair, setting your final glass down and grabbing your bag from beneath the bar.
Blaise looked you over, a playful glint in his eye, “Where d’ya think you’re going, love?” You crossed your arms over your chest, “I’m about to go home. I’m assuming that I can apparate in and out of the building now that I work here officially.”
Enzo and Blaise made eye contact, exchanging looks that suddenly gave you jitters. Enzo set down the glass he was polishing, turning his body fully towards you, “Didn’t Malfoy tell you? You don’t live there anymore.”
Your jaw dropped, “I thought that was a joke.” Blaise shook his head, looking down towards the ground as he chuckled before meeting your eyes, “You started legilimens lessons today right?” You nodded, confirming. “A’right then, that means Mattheo thinks you’re valuable. Usable. Also means he probably wants you to live with us now.”
You shook your head, hands held up in protest, “Woah, woah…live with you guys? Like all you boys live together and now I’m stuck there too?” Enzo held a hand to his chest in mock offense, “I’ll have you know I’m a fantastic house mate. Also Pans lives there too so you’re not the only girl.”
You pushed passed him, walking from behind the bar into the main room, “No way. No. How is he just allowed to dictate that? What about all my stuff? My things that were in my flat, I’m just supposed to leave them?”
“Anything that was important to you was taken to the house, your necessities were placed in your room. Other items that were deemed important to you were placed in two boxes. You can go through them and place them in the house where you’d like,” Mattheo’s voice cut through all other conversation, striking through the air with commanding force.
Defiant as you were, you pushed back, “And who decided what was important and what wasn’t?” Your stance held confidence your voice seemed to waiver in, your weight on one leg while your hip jutted out to the side. Mattheo rolled his tongue against his cheek as he eyed you up and down, “Forget I got a little tour of your mind earlier, Princess? I sent Malfoy and Pansy to your old place earlier to gather everything. Now c’mon, I’ll take you home and give you a tour.”
Mattheo stood with his arm out, elbow bent awaiting your grasp. You looked over to Blaise and Enzo for help but both men had their heads facing the floor. You scowled at them, stomping over to Mattheo with as much attitude as you could muster.
“Let that attitude reach your eyes and I might be able to do something with it,” Mattheo playfully whispered before you grabbed his arm and were being apparated to Merlin knows where.
When your feet found grounding you took in your surroundings. From what you could see you were standing in the middle of a Forrest, not dissimilar to that on your old school grounds. “What do we all get our own tents, boss?” You let go of Mattheo’s arm, going to walk slightly in front of him when he gripped the back of your neck, thumb pressing just behind your ear.
His breath was hot against the shell of your ear, “Don’t you trust me, Princess?” A shudder ran down your spine, but you nodded nonetheless. “Use your words, pretty girl,” you could almost hear the smirk in his tone as he spoke.
“Yes, sir. I t-trust you,” you stuttered out in a whisper. Mattheo’s thumb rubbed on the skin behind your ear, “Good girl. Now in order for you to see and enter the manor, I’m gonna have to mark you.”
Your spine stiffened, “M-mark me how? W-where?” His grip tightened slightly around your neck, thumb pressing a little harder behind your ear, “Right there, Princess. I promise it won’t hurt, but your agreeance means you’ll learn all our secrets, and once you know them there’s only one way out.”
You turned your head slightly, catching his dark eyes, “And what way is that?” Mattheo shook his head, “Don’t worry, Princess. I won’t let it ever happen to you. Are you ready?” You nodded, closing your eyes and bracing yourself. Mattheo rubbed his thumb behind your ear three times in a circular motion.
Once he was finished, you opened your eyes, the breath knocking from your lungs with what was now displayed before you. A large black manor stood where a thick of trees once were, an heir of darkness and secrecy surrounding the grounds. Mattheo started walking towards the front doors, causing you to move quickly to catch up with him.
As soon as his foot hit the first step the doors began to open. Stepping over the threshold you walked in to a giant foyer, a grand staircase running along one side up to a balcony. A house elf attempted to take your bag, promising to bring it to your room. “Thank you, Gimball. Bring her a cuppa as well.”
“Yes, Master Riddle,” Gimball bowed to the best of his ability before shuffling off. Mattheo turned towards you then, motioning toward the stairs, “I’ll show you to your room. You can explore the rest of the house tomorrow, Pansy will show you around, tell you the rules.”
You huffed, following him up the stairs, “Rules?” Mattheo stopped in his tracks causing you to slam into his back. He turned quickly, grabbing hold of your waist before you had the chance to fall backwards, “You said you trust me, you agreed to the mark. That means you follow the rules, do you understand?”
A head nod was all you could manage, but it seemed good enough for Mattheo as he turned back around and ascended the rest of the staircase. The doors in the hall were all black, a slightly darker shade than the hall walls. “This room is mine,” he pointed to the only room that held double doors. “And this one is yours,” he stopped at the door next to his, “if you need anything you can call for Gimball.”
You nodded in understanding, turning the knob and walking in. On the bed was your comforter and pillows from your flat, though they didn’t quite fit on the now king bed that you were to sleep on. You took in the room around you, noticing the antique dresser against the back wall, and a large sitting chair in the front corner.
You opened a door to the side to reveal a walk in closet that led to an en suite bathroom. You stared at the minimal clothing that took up not even half of the closet, sighing to yourself.
“Anything missing?” You turned to see Mattheo leaning against the doorframe. His arms crossed over his chest accentuated the strong muscles in his biceps. You didn’t let your stare wonder for too long before answering, “It seems all here, I’ll check the boxes in the morning. Actually, I’m really tired now that I think about it. Do you mind if I go to sleep?”
Mattheo watched as you opened the different drawers to the dresser until you found your nightgowns and shorts sets, “I’ll be just next door if you need anything.” You nodded in acknowledgment as Mattheo closed your door. You let out a deep breath, grabbing a shorts and tank set and going to run a shower.
As you undressed, you looked at yourself in the mirror. You turned your head to the side, pulling your ear down to reveal a small snake. You closed your eyes, a mixture of emotion swirling inside your chest. You knew you were safe now. You weren’t exactly sure what Mattheo and the others were capable of but from what you’ve seen, heard and experienced over the last two days, you could put two and two together.
You let the heat of the water run over your muscles, doing your best to relax for the first night in two months. You went through your nightly routine, getting dressed and climbing in to the large bed. You grabbed the cup of tea from the nightstand, Gimball somehow knowing exactly how you take it.
You settled into the duvet, pulling it tight against your chin. You inhaled deeply, relishing in the only thing that felt like home right now. Relaxing against the pillows you did your best to find sleep. However when sleep finally came it was anything but peaceful.
The force of Damiano’s hand had you slamming into the wall behind you. You squeezed your eyes shut, feeling the warmth of blood down the side of your lip. “Damniano, please. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean-”
“Merlin, sunshine, are you really that stupid? Do you ever shut your fucking mouth and just listen for once?” You groaned in pain as Damniano grasped on to your hair, pulling you up and throwing you toward the bed. “You never learn, do you sunshine?”
You tried to get up, tried to run only to be pulled back by your hair, Damniano throwing you to the ground and jabbing his heel into your side. You let out a whimper, clutching your side. As you tried to crawl away from Damiano, he climbed on top of you, grabbing your wrists and pinning you down. You thrashed underneath him, shouting at him to let go.
“Wake up, Princess. Cmon, eyes open, look at me,” Mattheo was lightly shaking your shoulders, trying to control the thrashing you were doing in your sleep. You gasped awake, clutching on to the man in front of you, fingers digging in to the skin of his back as you let out ragged breaths.
Mattheo wrapped his arms around you, holding you close to his chest, “Let it out, Princess. It’s okay. You’re safe now, he can’t hurt you.” You clutched on to him tighter, burying your face deeper into his chest as you let a sob wrack your body, tears flowing and dampening his bare skin.
Soothing circles were rubbed into your back as you finally were able to steady your breathing. You released your hold on him, pulling back slightly and wiping the backs of your hands on your face. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you, I didn’t realize how loud my nightmare made me.”
“You weren’t loud, and I told you, I’ll always be here for you,” Mattheo swiped his thumb under your cheek, catching a stray tear. “Right, well, I’m sorry I woke you,” you rubbed your hands up and down your arms, staring down at your bare legs.
Mattheo shook his head again, “I was already awake. But I’ll let you try to sleep again.” He stood from the bed, giving you one last look before he started towards the door. You gnawed at your bottom lip, playing with your fingers. You didn’t want to be alone. You knew if you were you probably weren’t going to get any more sleep the rest of the night.
“Mattheo, wait…” he stopped with a hand on the door knob. “Will you…stay, just until I fall asleep again. I…don’t want to be alone.” Mattheo walked back towards your bed, gently getting in on the other side. You watched as the muscles in his chest moved, the tattoos on his chest rippling as he climbed into the bed.
The size of your old duvet caused him to settle in closer to you than you originally anticipated, being able to feel the heat radiate off his body as you also sank back into the covers. You laid on your back, staring at the ceiling as you got used to Mattheo in the bed next to you. You then shuffled to your side, facing away from Mattheo. You then laid on your back again, squeezing your eyes shut trying to will yourself to sleep.
Mattheo let out a long sigh, sliding an arm under your shoulders and pulling you into his side. You let out a small yelp, catching yourself with a hand on his stomach, fingers fitting in the divers of his abdomen. He patted your head, encouraging you to lay down on his chest, “Close your eyes, Princess. Nothing can hurt you now. He can’t get to you.”
Mattheo grasped the meat of your outer thigh, pulling your leg over his waist. He trailed his fingertips up and down your thigh, the motion more soothing than you expected. Your breathing steadied out, your eyes feeling heavier with each passing of Mattheo’s fingers.
As you felt the pull of sleep begin to grasp you, you swore you felt Mattheo’s lips against the crown of your head.

Word count: 5.5k
An: sorry this chapter took so long to come out. There’s probably going to be a week between each chapter moving forward. Feedback and constructive criticism is always welcome. Also no Enzo this chapter sozz:(
Crawling on the floor you tried to gasp for breath only to start choking on the blood that kept filling your mouth from the split in your lip. You saw your wand in the corner of the room, trying to quicken your pace only to be flipped to your back by a heel kicked into your ribs, the little wind you had left knocked out of you.
You peered up at the looming figure above you. The smirk on Damiano’s face showing he was not anywhere near done with torturing you. “Godric you’re so bloody pathetic, Sunshine. I don’t know why I give you so many chances when all you do is disappoint and betray me. I really should just put you out of your misery shouldn’t I?”
He pointed his wand directly towards you. Your breaths were shallow, a sheen of sweat covering your skin from fighting and trying to defend yourself. You outstretched your hand toward the corner, Damiano’s gaze flicking towards where your vision strayed from him. “Oh sunshine, there’s no use, it’s out of reach. I’ve won.”
You mustered the deepest breath you could, mumbling a faint ‘accio Acacia wand’. Damiano went to laugh at your efforts until your wand started vibrating against the ground before shooting straight into your open palm. His eyes widened as you pointed your wand towards his feet, a small mumbled “bombarda” leaving your lips and causing him to launch into the air and into the wall behind him.
Damiano fell to the ground, body limp and seemingly knocked out, dead if you were lucky. You crawled to your feet. Doing your best to get out of the house as quickly as possible with the injuries you’d sustained. You tried to run, tried to get as far away as possible when you heard him calling your name. You tried to hide but he was faster it seemed, you couldn’t see him but you felt his grasp on your shoulders, shaking you, calling your name over and over.
“Uccellina! Wake up, love!” Your eyes shot open, grabbing hold of the person in front of you as your chest rose and fell, trying to slow down your pulse and gain your normal rhythm of breath back. “Gesù Christo, are you okay? You’re fucking drenched in sweat, c’mere.” You were pulled against his chest and immediately you held on, closing your eyes and breathing deeply. But the scent was not Mattheo’s, it was cigarette smoke and…patchouli?
You pulled back immediately, looking into the eyes of a raging ocean of concern. “Theo..?” His name came out as a question, you were genuinely confused by his presence, “W-what are you doing here?” Theo looked behind himself sheepishly, scratching the back of his neck, “I was told to, erm, keep an eye on you.” Following his gaze you saw a blanket on the floor next to the sitting chair in the corner.
Realization of what Theo was implying hit you & you shoved his chest harshly before scooting back toward your headboard, hugging your knees to your chest. “You were fucking watching me sleep?” Theo reached a hand out to you but decided to immediately retract it, letting out a long sigh. “Technically, no. I was also sleeping. But Mattheo told me you get nightmares and that it’d probably be better if I slept in here.”
“And where is Mattheo? If he’s so concerned why is he not the one ‘watching’ me?” Your mind was reeling, trying to understand each bit of information you were consuming. Theo stood up now, reaching his arms above his head to stretch, his voice straining slightly as he spoke, “Gone for a few days, gave me strict instructions to watch you and keep you out of trouble, so,” his mouth upturned to the most shit eating grin, “we’re attached at the hip until boss man comes back.”
You groaned, flopping down on your side and covering your head with your pillow. Theo only laughed at your reaction, “C’mon, uncellina, time to get up anyway. Gimball’s made us a fruit breakfast, thought we could eat by the garden.” You sat up on your elbows then, giving him a curious look, “Taking me on a breakfast date, Teddy?” Theo scrunched his nose up at the nickname you gave him, shaking his head, “Merlin, no. Mattheo would have my head if he thought I would even look at you with more intention than protection.”
Sitting up fully, you slid off your bed with a huff, “I’m getting tired of people acting like Mattheo has some sort of shield over me that no one else is allowed to penetrate.” You walked toward your closet, rummaging through your clothes. Theo made a noise behind you that sounded like a mix between a laugh and a grunt. You turned to him, slipping on a jumper as you walked towards your dresser drawers, “Something to say, Teddy?” Theo shoved his hands in his pockets, “If you can’t see it, love, I’m not enlightening you.” You held up your middle finger as you grabbed a pair of leggings from your drawer, Theo leaving the room so you could finish getting changed in peace.
The sound of your boots echoed off the marble floor as you walked through the foyer towards the back of the house. You stood, looking out the back sliding windows, taking in the vastness of the manor. “Ready?” Theo’s voice caused you to nearly jump from your skin, turning around and slapping his shoulder, “Fanculo! Do not sneak up on me, Theordore!” Theo wore a rather amused smirk, “Pali italiano?” (You speak italian?) You crossed your arms, mirroring his facial expression, “Sì, un po’. (Yes, a little) Impressed?”
Theo opened the door, motioning for you to lead the way to the garden, “I am actually, where did you learn?” You and Theo fell in step easily and you both made the walk along the path, “Ehm, my mother. She grew up in Rome, met my father in school. Then they moved to London afterwards, had me.” You shrugged your shoulders like it was any other information being shared. “What’re they up to now?” Theo asked curiously. You stiffened slightly, approaching the table by the garden and sitting quickly, “They, erm, died…in the war.”
You glanced down at your plate, a gorgeous array of colorful fruits that Gimball arranged along with flutes of what looked like orange juice with a pitcher between them. “I…I’m sorry, uncellina, I didn’t mean-” You shook your head, cutting him off, “S’okay, Teddy.” You looked up, meeting his eyes. He was chewing on his lower lip, looking like he was holding back words, “Don’t fret, Tesoro. It’s over, done and forgotten. S’not even my biggest trauma,” you let out a small laugh, trying to make light, but you caught Theo looking at you still, now adorning pity eyes.
“Do you want to talk about it?” Theo was doing his best to sound comforting, which you could tell was foreign to him. You smiled softly, shaking your head, “We’re not quite there yet, maybe nearer the end of your babysitting duties, hmm?” Theo nodded, chucking softly and smiling along with you. You picked up a flute of juice, spinning it slowly in your fingertips and holding it up to the sun, “Do you think Gimball was kind enough to make these in to mimosas for us?”
The two of you spend the next three mornings like that, having breakfast at the garden. You were slowly breaking down Theo’s walls with each conversation, allowing yourself to grow fond and build a bond with him. You learned of how awful his father was, a devoted follower of the Dark Lord to the point of nearly ignoring Theo’s existence if it wasn’t beneficial for him. You learned that Theo’s mother passed when he was young, early on in his Hogwarts years, but that Theo’s knowledge of plants and gardens came from her as she used to show him how things that looked so small and un-intimidating could be so powerful and useful.
Theo learned how your father taught you potions work and that your mother was a healer, which made sense to him after what you did to save Enzo. Theo found that you were actually quite funny, very witty, and probably too smart for your own good. He would joke that ‘you could be the boss instead of Mattheo’. You laughed, assuring him that you did not want the responsibility and you were glad to be whatever it was you were to them, of which you admitted you weren’t quite sure.
When you said that on the third morning, Theo couldn’t help but look at you endearingly, “Do you really not see your purpose here yet, uncellina?” You cheeks flushed red as you avoided eye contact, shaking your head. Theo clicked his tongue at you, a small smile forming on his lips, “Darling…you are the glue. You keep us together, never let us get too big of heads, certainly reminding us when we do.” This earned a small smile from you and Theo continued, “There’s been something missing from our dynamic as a family for a while. I won’t lie, when you first showed up I was skeptical.”
“I could tell,” you huffed a small laugh. Theo continued, “I know, I know, I wasn’t the kindest. But I’m protective. Hex me over it,” he shrugged his shoulders, “but you came and it’s like whatever we were missing was fulfilled with you.”
You were smiling, but your eyes were brimming with tears, “How can I be the glue when I’m still so broken inside, Teddy?” Theo got up from his chair, sitting down on the bench beside you. He wrapped his arms around your shoulders, pulling your head to his chest, “Darling, we’re all a little broken inside, that’s why we're a family. A bunch of misfit witches and wizards, yeah?” He held you back by your shoulders, giving you the goofiest grin. You choked out a small laugh, wiping your face with the back of your hand.
“There she is, there’s our little badass, can’t let Malfoy see you cry now, he’ll never let you hear the end of it.” You couldn’t stop the laugh that tumbled from your lips again at Theo’s words. You’d grown so close to him over the last couple of days you couldn’t stop the next words from falling out of your mouth. “Fuck, he just… he hurt me so bad, Theo. I dunno how to get over it. I relive it nearly every time I close my eyes and try to sleep, I don’t know what to do, how to get better form it.”
Theo looked back towards the manor, “Who hurt you? Malfoy? I’ll hex him, I swear it, he’s just in his office, I can probably do it from here.” He took his wand from his pocket, pointing it towards a set of windows. You grabbed his wrist quickly, “No, Teddy, not Draco. That’s not what I mean….it was…” you trailed off, but Theo was able to finish your sentence for you. “Damiano.” You tensed at the name, facial features wincing and eyes shutting like just the mere mention of him would cause him to appear in front of you, despite knowing of all the protective features of the manor.
“Wait…,” you looked up at him now, “how do you-”
“Mattheo asked all of us if we knew who he was after that first session, when you told him,” Theo cut you off, giving you your explanation. “I’ve heard of him before,” Theo was looking just past you now, into the flowerbed on the outskirts of the garden, “comes from a very prominent Italian wizarding family, very very dangerous.” Theo looked you in the eyes now, “How did you manage to even get caught up in that, love? I thought you said your family left Italy.”
You shrugged, looking away from his stare, “After my parents died, I wanted to feel close to them again. I went to both places that they came from, my father’s first, then my mothers. When I was in Italy he…he came up to me. I was in a pub, by myself, stupid now that I look back on it. He approached me, told me I was beautiful,” you shook your head, “Actually, the little manipulator said to me ‘Eyes like yours belong to the most beautiful of Greek goddesses, so what is a goddess doing in Italy all alone’. Sounds cheesy in English but in italian…”
Theo let out a low whistle, “Quite the charming sentence I’m sure.” You nodded. “So what happened? How did it turn in to…” Theo trailed off, not even really knowing how to ask as he didn’t really know how bad it had gotten before you left. You sighed, closing your eyes as you responded, “Maybe a month later it turned into chaos. He must have known about my mother, or someone in his family knew of my mother’s side or something? I knew I came from a long line of healers, but I guess I just didn’t know how prominent they were in Italy. But he did, his family did.”
You opened your eyes, Theo frowning at the gloss over them, knowing tears were about to come and he had no power to stop them, “I lied when I was healing Enzo.” Theo’s head titled in confusion, his mouth opening to ask what you meant but you continued too quickly, “I didn’t get practice in removing dark spells from the war. Nearly anyone hit with that kind of magic during that died instantly and I was too shell shocked from my own parents death I barely healed anyone that day.”
Taking a deep breath, you let it all flow out of you, “He used me Theo. D-Damiano and his family. He enticed me that first month, making me feel like he was falling for me, I was certainly falling for him…so stupid,” you chasiszed yourself, “I was the healer for their family. They kept me in the house, I was essentially on their beck and call twenty four seven. I don’t know exactly what they were doing but they would come back with deep, horrific wounds, edges caked in black, dark magic. Just like Enzo’s. That’s how…”
“That’s how you knew what it was, how to handle it,” Theo finished for you. You nodded, “I couldn’t mess up, not ever. Godric, Damiano would beat me if I did. Grant it he kind of beat me anyway. I tried to leave once, tried to tell them I was done. That was the first time Damiano really beat me. Took me two weeks to fully heal myself.” The tears were falling freely now as you bore your soul to Theo, “What Mattheo saw was near the end, when I kept getting fed up and finally started speaking up for myself. That’s what the dreams are, what you woke me up from before.”
Theo looked at you, his own ocean eyes glossing over hearing your story, “You’re safe now, you know that right?” You nodded, resting your forehead on his shoulder. Theo rubbed up and down your back, not wanting to disturb your moment of peace for a while. After a few beats, he pushed you up by your shoulders, “C’mon, uncellina, let go back. Boss should be back soon, I’m sure you wanna freshen up for him.” He gave you a playful wink before you slapped his chest, “Teddy! How many times do I have to tell you, there’s nothing going on. He’s my boss too, you know.”
You stood up with Theo, hooking your elbow in his as you both began to walk back towards the manor. “All I’m saying is Mattheo has never looked at any of us the way he looks at you. I’ve never had to watch over someone while he’s been gone before either.” You shook your head, letting out a laugh, “Well I hate to break it to you, Theo, but I think I just have a nicer ass than you, that’s probably the difference. And as for watching over me, he’s probably just still being protective since that one night with that fucking slime ball, Monti.”
Theo tensed slightly at the mention of that night, “Don’t remind me. And don’t mock my ass, darling. I get plenty of my own compliments from many a ladies, thank you very much.” You threw your head back in laughter and Theo smiled at you enjoying yourself. As you approached the back doors to the manor, they swung open on their own. Theo led you all the way to the stairwell. You took two steps up before turning back, grabbing hold of this shoulder. At this angle you were nearly the same height as him. You leaned forward, placing a chaste kiss to his cheek, “Thanks for listening this week, Theo. I really needed it.”
Theo smiled at you, “Anytime, sorella,” he tapped his temple, “Just give me a shout and I’ll be there for you.” You nodded before turning around and heading up the stairs to your room. Once inside you went to your top drawer of your dresser, digging deep into the bottom. You may have fibbed a little to Theo when stating there was nothing between you and Mattheo.
Honestly you didn’t know what was happening between you and Mattheo but his words still rang in your ear, crystal clear if you concentrated too hard on them. “I own you.” Merlin, you wanted to know what he meant, and to what extent. You rummaged through your drawer, picking out a black set. You were going to find out just how far Mattheo would let you go, and just how much control he’d let you have.
As you threw on your robe, folding and tying the strings around your waist you heard a pop behind you. This time it didn’t phase you, you fully expected who it was. You turned to see Mattheo standing at the foot of your bed, white dress shirt slightly splattered with a painting of red. He saw your eyes roam his face, taking in the small cut on his cheekbone before taking in the rest of his appearance.
“Bloods not mine,” Mattheo started walking toward you but stopped when you held up your hand. “Take it off,” you words were sharp, precise. Mattheo tilted his head down slightly, smirk adorning his face. You repeat yourself with more instruction, “Take off the shirt, keep on the trousers, sit in the chair.”
You watched at Mattheo slowly raised his hands, starting at the top button of his shirt. Your eyes were glued to his fingers pulling and pushing the buttons from each hole, the veins in his hands and forearms prominent with the movement. He slowly slid the shirt off his shoulders and down his strong biceps once the last button was undone. You bit the inside of your cheek as you drank in his strong chest and the array of scars littered there and down the ridges of his abdomen.
Once he was free of his shirt he followed your instructions, walking over to the chair in the corner of the room. He eased himself down, a hand on each of the armrests. Once he was fully seated he spread his legs open, pushing his crotch up slightly as he did so. You sauntered over to him, eyes raking over his body once more and Mattheo sat in anticipation.
“I just thought I should show you some appreciation,” you twirled your wand, a slow and seductive song now playing lowly in the room. Mattheo’s eyebrows shot up slightly, “Appreciation?” You nodded, dragging your fingers up your thighs, your silk robe pulling up slightly, giving Mattheo a peak of the thick of your thighs. His jaw clenched ever so slightly, but you noticed, and it only encouraged you further.
Your hands came up to the bow you had tied early, Mattheo found it fitting, wrapped up like a present just for him. You placed a hand on each arm rest, leaning close to whisper in his ear, “If I’m going to be a slut, it can only be for you, right boss?” His jaw clenched again, a low growl emitting from his throat. “So let me show you just how good of a slut I can be for you.” Mattheo’s only response was a grunt, his hands flying up to untie your robe. Your hands were quicker, grabbing hold of his wrists and halting his movements, “Ah, ah, no touching until I say so, can you handle that, boss?”
Mattheo’s mouth upturned ever so slightly, “Usually I’m the one giving instructions.” You mirrored his smirk, “Well let’s see how good you are at listening, then maybe you’ll get a reward.” You stood up slowly, allowing him a view down the front of your robe before you stood up fully. You swayed your hips back and forth as your hands came to the knot at the front of your waist. You pulled at the drawstring slowly, Mattheo’s eyes intensely watching every movement your hands made.
As the knot became undone you turned your back to Mattheo, relishing in the low growl that left his lips as you opened your robe yet still denied him visual access to what he wanted. You let the silk slide down your shoulders, revealing the black straps along your shoulders and across your back. You let the robe fall down to the floor, giving Mattheo a full view of the lace that barely covered your arse. You placed a hand on each arm rest, swiveling your hips just over his crotch, hovering just where you knew he’d like you, but not giving it to him fully.
“You’re playing with fire, Princess,” it was a warning, one that you chose to ignore. Instead you turned around, settling a knee on either side of his strong thighs, now straddling his lap. Mattheo’s eyes ravaged the front of your outfit, how the lace delicately hugged your breasts, the intricate design of the straps crossing over your ribs. His hands were fists on the arm rests, making you only smile more at his torture. “What’s wrong, Teo? Having trouble controlling yourself?”
He let out a huff of air through his nose, not trusting his voice in this moment. Your slowly trailed your hands up your sides, tracing the criss cross pattern of lace across your ribcage before cupping your breasts, giving them a light and playful squeeze as your threw your head back, sinking slightly lower on his lap, but not quite making contact with him.
Your hands ran up your chest, into your hair as you pressed your body closer to his, sitting up on your knees and allowing your chest to be at his eye level. You could feel his breath fan over your collarbones in short bursts, a sign that he was losing his patience. You sat back on his thighs, painting on the most innocent face you could muster.
You let your hands roam his bare chest, fingers dancing over scars before lacing them behind his neck. You toyed with the curls at the nape of his neck, his eyes fluttering shut at the sensation. What you did next Mattheo wasn’t expecting, especially not from you. Flattening your tongue, you licked along the cut on his cheekbone, cleaning the blood from his cheek. You felt Mattheo’s thighs stiffen beneath you and the excitement you got from this reaction only spurred you further.
The copper metallic taste was new on your tastebuds, Mattheo’s eyes flying open the moment you grabbed hold of his chin, sticking out your tongue to display the scarlet red painted across it. In that moment his eyes flashed darker than you’d ever seen. You brought your tongue back into your mouth, then brought your lips to his. You were soft at first, nearly ghosting your lips across his before grinding your hips down. You could feel his hardness against your barely clothed core, the roughness of his trousers providing the perfect amount of friction on your swollen clit.
You could feel him tense more with every roll of your hips, lips never quite touching his again, lips feather light over the skin of his cheek, along his jaw. You nipped at his ear, teasing him further now, “You’re being such a good boy for me, fuck, letting me use you like this.” You rolled your hips again, feeling his hardness strain against his trousers and seeing his jaw clench made you feel powerful and you were getting drunk on the feeling. You knew the next sentence was pushing it a little too far, you knew he’d likely snap from it, but it was exactly what you wanted to happen. A low moan left your lips as you dragged your pussy along his length before you whispered in his ear, “Who owns who now?”
A growl and a low, “Fuck this,” was all that left Mattheo’s mouth before his hands roughly grabbed hold of your arse, his lips attaching themselves to your neck as he began harshly sucking and biting at the sensitive skin there. You gasped, clutching onto his shoulders as he stood up, walking you both over towards the bed before throwing you down. You bounced against the mattress, sitting up on your elbows as Mattheo stood at the edge of the bed.
Your eyes watched as Mattheo’s fingers slowly undid the buttons of his trousers, teasingly sliding down his zipper as he spoke, “Seems like I wasn’t clear enough the last time.” He slid his pants down until they pooled at his feet. He ran his thumb along the waistband of his briefs, “But I promise you Princess,” he pushed his briefs down his legs, his length slapping the underside of his stomach, the head of his dick red and leaking, “after tonight you are never going to forget who you belong to.”
He kneeled on the bed, tracing his fingertips along the outsides of your calves, slowly trailing up to your thighs where he began kneading the flesh. His hands roamed towards the inside of your thighs, goosebumps rising on your skin in his wake. He slowly pushed your legs open wider, gripping the underside of your knees and yanking your body towards him.
Hooking your knees over his elbows he leaned down to capture your lips in his, a moan leaving his lips and he rutted his hips into yours. You could feel his length slide along your folds, the tip of his dick catching your clit and making you gasp. Mattheo took the opportunity to slide his tongue into your mouth, exploring and deepening the kiss as he slid one of his hands between your bodies.
You were so encaptured by his mouth that the feeling of his two fingers slipping inside your hole caught you off guard, your breath leaving your lungs as he curled his fingers, hitting deep inside you and making your legs twitch. “So fucking tight, Princess, not sure if I’m gonna fit,” he moaning against your neck, nipping and bitting your skin, sure to leave a trail of bruises for the others to see.
“Merlin, I’m going to wreck this tight little cunt,” Mattheo’s lips trailed down your neck, over the swells of your breast before he took his other hand to rip down your top. Mattheo wrapped his lips around one of your taut nipples, one hand palming and massaging the other as his fingers continued to work your cunt, scissoring and pumping inside you to open you up.
You felt the familiar build up in your stomach, heat pooling at your core as Mattheo continued his ministrations. “Please, Teo, fuck-” His thumb swiped over your clit, a smirk pulling at his lips, “Yeah, you like that Princess? C’mon, give me one before I fill this cunt. Show me how much of a slut you are, just f’me, just like ya said.”
His fingers continued their assault, thumb circling your clit in perfect rhythm. His words were the last encouragement you needed before you were falling over the edge, hand grasping his forearm and nails digging into his skin as you saw white. Mattheo continued to pump his fingers into you as you rode of your high, hips bucking into his palm as you became sensitive.
He slid his fingers from you slowly, a whimper leaving your lips at the empty feeling he left. He brought his fingers up to your mouth, sliding them past your lips. You sucked his fingers eagerly, holding eye contact as you swirled your tongue around his digits. He slipped his fingers from your mouth, capturing your lips with his as he slid your panties down your legs and tossing them aside.
He rut his hips against yours again, his cock easily sliding through your slick folds from your previous orgasm. He sat back on his hunches, grabbing hold of your knees and keeping your legs spread wide. He bucked his hips slightly, teasingly knocking his length against your clit sloppily just to earn pathetic whimpers and begging from your lips.
Lining himself up, he teased you further, pressing just the head of his cock inside your hole. You whined, trying to buck your hips and feel more of him. “Patience, Princess,” Mattheo growled before pressing your knees to your chest and sinking fully into you.
You moaned in unison, Mattheo stilling momentarily to allow you to adjust to his size. He filled you completely, more than anyone before him. You could feel all of him, his length, his thickness, every vein against your walls. He pulled back slightly before slamming his hips back to yours, “Oh, fuck, Matty.” You could feel his cock pulsing inside you as he repeated the motion, pulling out father and slamming into you harder each time.
Mattheo placed a hand on your lower stomach, applying pressure as he continues to rut his hips into yours. The new sensation had your eyes rolling, but Mattheo didn’t like that, his free hand now gripping your throat at the sides, “Eyes on me, Princess. I wanna see you fall apart all over this cock.” You comply, struggling with hooded eyes as his hips pound into you. Snap into you harder. Faster. Your jaw slacks and it’s all the encouragement he needs to keep going.
Your hips meet his thrusts, chasing your second high. His stubble catching your clit at just the right angle as your hips meet. You’re practically drooling as Mattheo babbles praises against your skin, telling you how well your taking him, how pretty your pussy looks filled with him and each word tightens the coil in your stomach as you’re chanting his name. Your nails rake down his back as he hits that particular spot deep inside and your walls clench around him like a vice.
His moans are deep as he grabs hold of your leg, hiking it over his shoulder. The new angle sending you over the edge, babbling his name as you release all over his cock. He doesn’t stop though, continuing to pound into you, chasing his own high. Your chest is heaving, rising up and down as you try to catch your breath to no avail as Mattheo doesn’t slow down.
“You can take it Princess-fuck-bloody hell you feel so good-you’ve got one more in you, know you can do it for me,” he growls, pulling your hips to his. He captures your lips with his own as your fingers dig into his shoulders. You can feel his hips stuttering, his thrusts becoming more sloppy as he chases his own high. His thumb finds your swollen clit, rubbing tight circles as me mumbled against your lips, “Who owns you, huh, Princess? Who owns you and this tight fucking pussy? -Gods- Who is it?”
Your thoughts were a white hot blindness of bliss, head shaking back and forth as you were unable to form words. Mattheo slapped the outside of your thigh, “Answer me, slut, who owns you?” You moaned at the lewdness of it all, stuttering dumb over the pleasure, “Y-you, Mattheo, you own me. Fuck-I b-belong to you.”
“Good fucking girl.” With a few more swirls of his thumb your legs were quaking as you cried out his name, cumming hard before you felt Mattheo spill his seed deep inside your walls. His hips still, chest rising and falling with panting breaths before slowly pulling out of you. He leaned back on his heels, watching as the mix of both your juices seeped from your hole.
Mattheo swiped his fingers through your folds, gathering the mixture before pumping his fingers back into you a few times. Your body jerked at the motion, Mattheo only laughing before pulling his fingers back out and pushing them past your lips, “Taste that Princess? That’s what I do to you.” You moaned around his fingers, making obscene noises as you sucked them clean. “Mmm, you really were a slut for me, Princess,” he kissed sloppily along your neck, “next time I’m gonna taste you.” You moaned at the thought, wishing you weren’t so sensitive so he could cash in that promise right now.
You watched with half hooded eyes as Mattheo climbed down from the bed, digging in to his discarded trousers. He grabbed his wand, waving it quickly over both of you and cleaning you up. You pouted slightly, having quite enjoyed the feeling of both your messes on you. You half expected Mattheo to leave as it seemed he was headed toward the door. Instead he opened one of your draws, grabbing shorts and a shirt and tossing them on the bed in front of you before pulling his own briefs back on.
Pulling back the covers, you nestled into the bed, Mattheo climbing back in and pulling you close to his chest. You intertwined your legs with his, relishing in his body heat. Your head rested against his chest as his fingers danced over your shoulder and up and down your arm. Your eyes were heavy, lids falling shut as the rise and fall of his chest gave you calmness.
Mattheo pressed his lips to the crown of your head, words tumbling from his mouth in a whisper, “You’re so important to me, Birdie. One day I’ll tell you how much.” You heard his words, ever so faintly. Not being able to fully register them before the chasms of sleep overtook you.

[Chapter 5]
word count: 4.3k
warning: smut, fingering 18+ content MDNI
an: Theo is not mentioned in this chapter and I’m so very sorry but chapter 6 is very Theo heavy so I hope that makes up for it 🫶🏻
You and Enzo had made a routine of apparating to the club together. You had been doing this for about a week before the incident with Monti, but ever since that night Enzo was very firm that you arrive together. The first few days after it happened, he carried a lot of guilt with him for letting you go to the alley by yourself. It took heavy convincing, but you were pretty sure that you were able to convey how much it wasn’t his fault, and that you were glad he was there to help protect you.
Since that night, Mattheo had barely been around the manor. You could count on one hand the amount of times you actually saw him at the manor over the last two and a half weeks. It was more like you heard him more often than you saw him, and most of the time he was yelling. All of the other boys were being yelled at regularly, but Draco seemed to be taking the brunt of it. You weren’t sure if it was because they were family, but it made you feel kind of bad for him.
It really made you upset not seeing Mattheo that long, not really interacting with him. Maybe upset was not the right word, but if you thought too long about it you felt queasy. There was something about the dynamic between you and Mattheo that made you feel one of two ways, either incredibly, seething, fire burning, hell raging mad - or - light headed and butterfly stomach and warm and yearning and pining and wanting so much of him you thought you might physically implode.
You were thinking about all these things as you were doing mindless work getting the bar ready for the night when Pansy walked into the room, mouth running a hundred miles a minute as you heard her pleading with whoever was on the other end of the cell phone pressed to her ear. When her conversation finally ceased, Pansy set the phone down on the table in front of her. Her head was hung low, like she was trying to recenter herself. You looked over at Enzo, who simply shrugged his shoulders.
In the next moment Pansy was screaming with rage as she pointed her want towards the stage nearest her, deep red exiting her wand and the stage effectively exploding in front of all of your eyes. Your mouth was agape, not expecting to ever see this side of Pansy. Enzo only shook his head in annoyance, taking out his own wand and giving it a swift flick, causing the once exploded stage pieces to slowly float back to their original position until it was like Pansy didn’t have an outburst whatsoever.
“What’s the problem, Pans?” Enzo broke the silence, clearly having dealt with this side of Pansy plenty of times before. Pansy let out a deep sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose. “One of the main stage dancers is not coming in tonight and I have no one to replace her. You know how particular Mattheo is, he’s going to have a fucking aneurysm over this. Roxy is good, but she can’t do the whole stage by herself.” Pansy leaned her head back, closing her eyes and letting out a few more expletives.
Enzo couldn’t contain his amused smirk, “This is why I’m glad I don’t have your position, Pansy. It is far more easy being me than it is being you.” You scoffed, quickly quipping back, “Yeah until you’re basically dying and whining like a toddler when someone is trying to save your life.” Enzo gasped at you, fake hurt in his eyes. But the interaction managed to put a smile on Pansy’s face, if only for a brief moment. “Really, you guys, I’m not sure what I’m gonna do, I really don’t want to deal with an angry Mattheo tonight.”
You gnawed at your bottom lip, wondering if what you were about to say would be helpful or just start another argument. You really wanted it to be helpful, you wanted to show everyone how valuable you could be in a crisis, prove yourself of sorts. Especially after the last time you were given a task you basically caused them to all have to show their darkest sides of themselves in order to save you. You glanced over at Enzo, knowing that immediately after you spoke your thoughts he would protest.
Enzo’s eyes widened before you could even speak, shaking his head as if he already read your mind; which in fairness was highly possible. Regardless, you turned back towards Pansy, the words flowing from your mouth before Enzo could protest for real, “I could do it.” Pansy’s head snapped up at your words, you quickly reasoning as to why it was a good idea, “I wanted to be a dancer when I first came to the club anyway, I know I can do it. Not to mention I watch the stage every bloody night, I could probably do Roxy’s routine in my sleep. And Roxy and I already have a good relationship so there would be like…chemistry or whatever.”
Once again you managed to make Pansy smile. “That’s brilliant!” She exclaimed at the same time that Enzo barked out, “Like bloody fucking hell you are.” Both you and Pansy turned to Enzo glaring. “Okay, remind me to never be in the same room as the both of you when you’re upset, because this is fucking scary,” he took a step back from both of you, “but I’m serious, Angel, no way. Mattheo would fucking kill you if you went up on that stage.”
You rolled your eyes so hard you head went along with it, “Oh, please Enz, Mattheo would never hurt me, let alone kill me.” Enzo scoffed, “Right right, I forget, you guys have that special relationship.” He emphasized the last two words with air quotes. You narrowed your eyes up at the sandy haired boy, “What are you insinuating?” Enzo doubled down, not breaking eye contact with you, “I’m saying that your relationship is different with Mattheo than any of us. He lets you get away with a hell of a lot more than any other person in this family.”
“Oh, bullocks,” you spat back at him. You were irritated beyond belief, Enzo never spoke to you this way. “Fine,” Enzo held his hands up in surrender, “how bout you just go tell him about your little plan then, hmm? I know he’s here.” You looked over at Pansy who just shrugged her shoulders. Turning back to Enzo you crossed your arms stubbornly, “Fine, I’ll go ask him.” Enzo huffed, “Well fine!” You shouldered past him, “Fine!” He called back at you again, “Fine!” For good measure you threw one more over your shoulder, “Fine!” Pansy covered her face with her hands, shaking her head, “You guys are worse than having bloody children, I swear it.”
You walked with determination back towards Mattheo’s office. With each step the air felt like it was getting thicker, but you urged yourself to keep moving, to prove to Enzo (and everyone else) that while you now worked for Mattheo it didn’t mean that he controlled you. With a flick of your wand his office door swung open to reveal an irritated Malfoy and Mattheo with a satisfied smirk on his face that was less than comforting.
“Can we help you?” Draco sneered, clearly annoyed by the boldness of your intrusion. You stood just inside the doorway, arms crossed. You gave Draco an irritated look before turning to Mattheo, “Pansy said one of the main stage dancers isn’t showing up today, so I’m going to replace her. I know the routine and have a good rapport with Roxy so-”
“No.” Mattheo cut you off with a firm statement. You huffed in annoyance, “Yeah that’s not really an option here, boss, if we don’t find someone to go up there then the club will lose money and I know that you don’t really like that and it’s bad for bus-”
“I said no,” Mattheo’s voice boomed again, “I’ve told you before, Birdie, you are not a dancer. You are a bartender. You are not going to be a dancer, will never be a dancer, under any circumstance. Is that clear?” You glared at him, holding his gaze as your lips formed a thin line. You opened your mouth to protest again but Mattheo flicked his wand, mumbling a quick depulso and pushing you back through the doorway before slamming it shut.
You’re a right git, Mattheo, you said to him. No means no, Princess. Don’t play with fucking fire, Mattheo thought back. You stood outside the office trying to weigh out your options. You were about to lean towards just giving up, when you heard Draco’s voice, “C’mon, what’s the harm, really. It’s just one night, and you know she’s right fit, she’d bring in so much money. She’s right about us losing out with just Roxy up there.” You smiled at a bit at Draco actually being on your side, maybe he wasn’t such a tosser after all.
“Absolutely fucking not, she’s not doing it. I swear to fucking Salazar if she goes on that bloody stage it’s your head, Cousin.” You didn’t have to see his face to know Mattheo was seething and poor Malfoy was on the receiving end of it. The fiery anger in his tone only fueled your own further.How dare he think he can decide what you can and cannot do? You didn’t care if he was the owner of the club, he had no right to tell you what decisions you could make. You were tired of him acting like he owned you.
With a deep breath you walked away from the office door, heart pounding as you made your way back to the bar. You felt like your heart beat was in your head with every step you took, the bass of the music in the club not helping ease this. When you got back behind the bar you closed your eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath to try and center yourself. In the time you were in Mattheo’s office a large amount of clientele had appeared, the current dancers working hard to milk them for all their money as Enzo bounced back and forth behind the bar.
As you got to the bar you turned around toward the booze, grabbing the most expensive tequila the club had as you slammed four shots down in front of you.“Y’alright, Angel?” Enzo’s eyes grew wide as you picked up one glass at a time and quickly threw them each back, the alcohol burning your throat in the most calming way. Picking up the last shot Enzo’s large hand enveloped your wrist, “Slow the fuck down, what are you doing? Trying to blackout on the job?”
Your eyes pierced his, a storm of determination brewing behind your pupils, “Enzo, let go of my wrist or I’ll hex your fucking cock off.” He shook his head, stubbornness higher than ever, “No way, Mattheo will have my throat if I let you get fucking sloshed.” You groaned in frustration, rolling your eyes and stomping your foot on the ground like a toddler having a tantrum.
“Why does everyone act like Mattheo is my fucking keeper?” You leaned your head toward the shot, tipping it in to your mouth while Enzo still gripped your wrist. He rolled his eyes at your actions, finally letting go, “Why’re you doing this, Angel? Was I right about the meeting with the good ol’ boss?” You looked toward the stage as the dancer finished up her routine, crawling on her knees and swaying her hips as she picked up the large bills from the stage floor and stuffing them into her bikini top and barely there bottoms.
Enzo followed your gaze, laughing nervously, “Oh no fucking way, hell no. You’re not…no, Angel.” You turned to face him again, pulling off your tank top to reveal your rhinestone bikini top, “Who’s gonna stop me?” You shoved your tank top into Enzo’s chest, walking toward Blaise at the Dj booth to tell him what song you wanted and what stage name to announce. Enzo glanced around the club nervously, praying to Merlin that Mattheo wouldn’t notice, or that at least whatever stage name or song you played didn’t alert him to your little rendezvous.
Enzo stared at you as you walked towards the dancers changing rooms, trying to get you to change your mind, He’s gonna have your ass if you go through with this Angel, you know that don’t you? Entering where the rest of the dancers were you just shook your head, answering Enzo, Let him! You quickly found Roxy, walking up to her and telling her your plan. She gave you a questioning look, but after assuring her that Mattheo would only be upset with you and not her, she helped you get ready, hair, makeup, the works before going towards the main stage entrance.
As Mattheo left his office to find Pansy and talk solutions, Blaise began introducing the next entertainers to come on. Being none the wiser to your plan, he did everything you asked. Flicking a few switches on his sound board the main stage began to illuminate, catching the attention from most of the patrons and earning some whoops and hollers from those that were excited for the main event.
Blaise held his wand to his throat in the booth, doing his introductions, “Please welcome to the main stage your favorite girl R-R-R-R-Rooooxxxxyy,” he drawled out. “And accompanying her tonight is someone new to the stage,” at this Mattheo stopped dead in his tracks. He looked over towards the bar only to find Enzo looking towards the ceiling and avoiding his eye contact. He looked across the club at Pansy, who was holding her hands up in surrender. Blaise’s voice continued, “Let’s give a very warm and wallet generous welcome to…” Blaise paused for dramatic effect, lowering the lights around the stage and putting a small spotlight at where you were about to walk out, “Cherrí.”
The amount of whistles and cheers that occurred when you stepped out into the light was almost deafening. You tried to give your most sultry smirk as you walked toward the pole opposite Roxy. You grabbed hold of the cool steel as you began walking in a slow circle, Blaise putting on the song you requested; Cherry Pie.
You grabbed hold as high at your height would allow as the lyrics began, following Roxy’s typical routine and pulling the bottom half of your body up the pole, hooking your knee around the bar and leaning backwards as it spun, now hanging upside down while you grabbed the pole above you
She's my cherry pie
Cool drink of water, such a sweet surprise
Tastes so good, makes a grown man cry
Sweet cherry pie, yeah
Maneuvering your body around the pole proved to be a lot easier than you anticipated. Following Roxy’s lead you would stay on the pole while she walked and danced around the stage, shedding a layer of clothing here and there and crawling seductively towards the bills that were being thrown on stage. When she walked back toward the other pole, you took a deep breath, knowing it was your turn to do what she called crowd work. You took one last spin on the pole, the whistles from the men directly in front of you fueling your adrenaline along with the song you chose.
Swingin' to the drums
Swingin' to guitar
Swingin' with the bass
In the back of my car
Ain't got money
And I got no gas
But we'll get where we're goin'
If we swing real fast
I scream, you scream
We all scream for her
Well, don't even try 'cause
You can't ignore her
You slowly slid the skirt you wore down your thighs, the man in front of you’s eyes roaming your body like you were his last meal. You shimmied your hips, pulling your skirt down teasingly slow and bending over in front of the men to give them a full view of your arse. Bills flew to the stage as you finally stepped out of your skirt, sinking to your knees and spreading them wide to sit back on your heels. You let your hands roam up your body, over your breasts causing the hanging rhinestones to shake and glimmer in the light, then dragged your hands up and into your hair, throwing your head back as you bounced slightly on your knees.
Crawling on your hands and knees across the stage you were sure to arch your back, swinging your hair back and forth in time with the song, throwing winks at men that looked like they wanted to tear you apart like an animal but instead threw money on the stage. Walking back over to you, Roxy held out her hand, helping you up slowly so your body’s slowly dragged against each other as you stood up, giving the whole audience a show.
The song ended and Blaise turned on an interlude as you and Roxy maneuvered around the stage to grab the bills that were left. As you were picking up some bills while still trying to look sexy and sultry on your hands and knees a man held out a large bill in front of your face. You reached out your hand, but he quickly grabbed your wrist. You were about to protest or even hex whoever it was. But as soon as you saw the tattoos on the fingers that held you all your nerve endings tingled.
Slowly, you looked up. Taking in the sharp black suit jacket, crisp black dress shirt, all to go along with the onyx eyes that belong to Mattheo Riddle. To any average onlooker it would seem like there was a glint of playfulness in his eyes. But you’d seen that look before, many times during your lessons. If this look told you anything, it was that you were going to regret your last few decisions.
His voice was low when he spoke, you almost had to lean closer to even hear him as he grit his words through his teeth, “Office. Now.” It was a command and not one you were going to ignore. You sat on your bum, swinging your legs over the edge of the stage. Despite his rage Mattheo still assisted you. Grabbing your hips, albeit harshly, and lifting you off the stage and setting you down on your feet.
Once standing he gripped your wrist again, leading you to his office like a child about to be scolded. You looked toward the bar, Enzo meeting your gaze and miming locking his lips as if to assure you he didn’t tell the boss on you. Once in his office Mattheo released his hold on you, “Sit.” You walked toward the chair in front of his desk before his voice cut through the silence once more, “Not there. On the desk. Facing my chair.”
You gulped, trying your best to keep your face stoic despite the rising heartbeat in your chest. You walked slowly around his desk, slowly lifting and perching yourself atop. The wood was cool against your bare thighs, Mattheo not even giving you a chance to put more clothes on before dragging you through the club. So there you sat, clad in only your bikini top and thin panties. You tried your best to control your breathing as Mattheo came to stand in front of you.
He gripped each one of your thighs just above the knee, his touch setting your skin aflame. You couldn’t tear your eyes away from his hands splayed across your legs, squeezing the flesh as he spoke to you, “Are you proud of yourself?” You tore your eyes from his hands and looked up at him, confusion clearly written on your face. “Oh, don’t play innocent now, Princess. Not after that fantastic performance you gave,” he wore a shit eating grin as your face fell. Mattheo’s grip on your thighs tightened slightly as he spread your legs wide enough to step between them.
“I was just-” Mattheo gripped your throat, effectively silencing you before you could begin. “Ah, ah. It’s my turn to talk, you just get to sit there and listen.” A shiver ran up your spine as his hand that was still on your thigh slid up higher. “You really pissed me off just now, Birdie. Blatantly defying me after I told you no. I told you from the beginning, no dancing, and yet what did you fucking do?” He hung his head, letting out a light chuckle as his thumb kneaded the inside of your thigh, “Do you know why I won’t let you dance, Princess?”
You shook your head the best you could with the grip he had on you. His smirk grew in to a devilish grin as he leaned in close, whispering in your ear, “Because if you’re going to be a slut for anyone, it’s going to be me, and only me, do you understand, Princess?” You nodded, squirming on the desk at his words. Mattheo met your gaze, taking in your current state of desperation, “Do you like that, Princess? The idea that you only get to be the perfect little slut for me?” He slid his hand between your thighs, dragging two fingers along your folds over your panties. He smirked at the dark wet spot that was already forming, pressing his thumb lightly against your clit. You jolted at the contant, a pathetic whimper leaving your throat.
“All this for me, Princess? Or is some of this for all those men throwing dirty bills at you being a whore?” You groaned at the degrading words, shaking your head, “N-no, it’s all for you, Teo. I swear, just for you.” Mattheo growled at the nickname, eyes darting down quickly to your parted lips before meeting your gaze again, “Good, because it’s about time for everyone to know who you fucking belong to.” With the grip he had on your throat he finally brought your lips to his. The kiss was anything but gentle, lips harshly pressed against one another as his thumb started circling your clit again. You whimpered at the action, Mattheo taking the opportunity to allow his tongue to explore your mouth.
As his lips trailed lower, along your jaw and to your neck, his fingers gripped the top of your panties before tugging harshly and ripping the thin material off your body. You gasped and could feel Mattheo smirk against your skin. When he found a particular spot to suck and bite near your collarbone he ran his finger up your folds, coating them in your slick before circling two fingers over your clit. “Fuck…” you moaned out, trying your best to take in all the pleasure you were receiving.
Mattheo’s lips found yours again as he circled his fingers around your hole teasingly, swallowing the whimpers as they left your lips. Without warning he slipped a finger deep inside your cunt, your back arching and bringing your chest flush to his. “Fuck, Princess, you’re so fucking tight, don’t know how you’re ever gonna take my cock when you can barely take a finger,” Mattheo groaned against your lips. You mewled against him, hands gripping the edge of the desk like a vice, unsure if you were able to touch him or not, but too lost in the pleasure you were feeling to try.
He added a second finger, thumb finding purchase on your swollen clit, slowly finger fucking you on his desk. He broke his lips from yours to watch your cunt swallow his fingers over and over as he pumped them into you. “Fuck, Princess, you’re taking my fingers so well. Those other men would die to be in my position right now, but that’s not who you want, is it, pretty girl?” You shook your head vigorously, chest heaving. “Words, gorgeous, let me hear them. Let me hear what I’m doing to you.”
You tried to keep your eyes from rolling in the back of your head and answer him, “N-no, fucking hell-” Mattheo curled his two fingers now with every outward thrust, pushing against your g-spot in the most delicious way no one else every had. The blissful stretch created an overwhelming feeling of pleasure, “Don’t want them, j-just want you.”
You could feel the pressure building inside you, the waves of pleasure clouding your vision. He quickened his pace, his long fingers hitting places you have never been able to reach and sending jolts of electricity through your entire body. His thumb made tight circles over your clit and you clenched around his fingers. “I can feel you clenching around me, Princess. Come on, be a good girl and let go f’me.” It was like his permission was all your body was waiting for as you fell over the edge into your orgasm.
Your vision blurred as you let out a pornagraphic moan, Mattheo continuing to finger you through your high, your legs shaking with pleasure. As your breathing calmed Mattheo slowly slid his fingers from your cunt. He stuck out his tongue, bringing the glistening digits to his mouth before lewdly sucking them clean causing you to clench around nothing.
“I swear to Salazar I can’t wait to fucking devour that cunt of yours,” he grabbed hold of your thighs, gripping them tightly as he captured your lips in another searing kiss. You couldn’t help but moan at the taste of yourself on his tongue. Mattheo rested his forehead on yours, his own chest rising and falling along with yours to catch your breath. “Never forget that you’re mine, Princess.” He leaned back slightly, grabbing hold of your chin. His eyes held an intensity to them as they locked with yours, your breath hitching in your throat as he spoke three final words.
“I own you.”

[Chapter 4]
word count: 6.9k
warnings: mentions of blood, mentions of violence, mentions of gore, mentions of attempted sexual assault (no assault occurs)
an: it’s a long one, children, I hope you enjoy. Feed back is always welcome, there’s a lot going on in this chapter and I would love to hear what you guys think of it all.
The light, or lack thereof, in Mattheo’s office at the club seemed more ominous than usual as he mentally beat you down in today’s legilimens lessons. Since the incident with Enzo almost two weeks ago, Mattheo’s lessons have become more grueling, more intense, like he was trying to break you into a perfect puppet and get you wrapped around his fingers like he seemed to have the others.
You had no real issue following orders, but you did have issues with going into situations blindly. What you dealt with in your past created a sense of hyper-self awareness for you. It left you with this need to constantly feel prepared, constantly look over your shoulder, and never lead yourself into a situation where you couldn’t weigh the outcomes.
Gasping for breath, you slowly lifted your head so that your eyes met Mattheo’s across from you. He was tall on his own, but with you sitting he seemed to loom over you like a dark shadow, which is probably what he was hoping for with how torturous he was being this morning. After another failed attempt at trying to reach the darkest depths of your mind Mattheo was seething with rage.
He couldn’t comprehend how a seemingly unthreatening woman had so much self-control, so much ability to protect what he was able to extract from the others within the first session. You, however, were doing your best to protect the last bit of secrecy you had since moving into the manor. Maybe it was your irritation with how hard he was pushing you, or maybe, deep down, you liked how he would get when you pissed him off, but you couldn’t stop the sneering tone of your voice as you taunted him. “What’s wrong, boss? Angry that your newest little pet is stronger than you thought?”
The air left your lungs as Mattheo’s large hand now covered the expanse of your neck. He wasn’t choking per se, but definitely showing you that he had more dominance in the situation. “Like I said that night, I really underestimated you, Princess. But don’t for a second do the same with me. You have no idea who you’re truly dealing with, what I’m capable of. These lessons have been some of the easiest things you’ll deal with in this business.”
You stared at him, glared at him, not responding with words, not daring to break eye contact first. You refused to look weak in front of him, not right now, not when he was acting like this. A smirk graced his face, his fingers digging into the sides of your throat now, “What's wrong, Princess? Cat’s got your tongue? You know I can feel when your heart rate quickens,” he leaned in close to your ear, “and you know what? I think you like this grip I’ve got on you.”
“Fuck you,” you huffed out the insult the best you could with the pressure his fingers had around your neck. Mattheo only laughed at your response, letting go and leaning back against his desk now, “I’m sure you’d love that, sweetheart, but we’re not there yet.” You scowled at him, but he only raised his eyebrows in return, “Now are you ready for more?” You gave a weak nod as Mattheo raised his wand. You could see that he was winding up to mutter the spell again when you whipped your own wand from your pocket, pointing it at him instead.
“Legilimens!” You barely had time to register the surprise in Mattheo’s features as you spoke the spell towards him before you were thrust into what you could only assume was the depths of one of Mattheo’s personal memories.
You watched as a small boy, no more than ten, did his best to crawl away from a looming figure of a man that was following him. You didn’t need to hear any names to know that the boy was Mattheo. He had the same dark curls, only a little longer in his youth, and the same earth shattering cheekbones. But the real tell tale sign were his eyes; they were they same onyx color, only now they were brimmed with tears.
“Father, please. I swear I tried my best. I’ll do better, I’ll be better, I promise,” young Mattheo was pleading with the figure, with his father. Voldemort. True to form, Voldemort showed no mercy, not even for his own offspring. Your heart nearly shattered as he pointed his wand at Mattheo, uttering an unforgivable, “Curcio.” Mattheo writhed on the ground in pain, trying, and failing, to muffle screams and not appear as weak as his father viewed him. After a moment the torment ceased, Voldemort leaning over Mattheo, “Promises are futile, son. What I want to see are results.”
There was a rush of swirling images flying by you. You tried to take in as much as you could as they flew by but they were all moving so quickly. Soon you were thrust back in to a new memory of Mattheo’s.
You were back at the same manor as the previous memory, only it was a few years later. Or at least that’s what you were assuming. It felt colder, the furniture in the sitting room looked less used, like the the house itself was slowly dying. The same looming figure, Voldemort, appeared to float into the room. Another version of Mattheo, an older verson than before but still quite young, was following his father into the room.
The innocence of youngness was gone from this Mattheo’s features. This Mattheo showed similar expressions to the one you knew now; stoic, blank, cold. “Father, I don’t understand, why am I not attending school like Draco, I thought you wanted me to be able to infiltrate groups for those my age, would it not be easier for me to do that there?” You were thankful you couldn’t see Voldemort’s face, because the flash in Mattheo’s eyes showed you it was anything but inviting.
“My dear boy, there is nothing at that school that Gimball cannot show you here. The Malfoy’s are holding a winter ball at their manor next month, you will attend and begin building bonds with the other’s Draco will bring, that is the beginning,” Voldemort’s tone, while soft, was still threatening, warning Mattheo not to challenge his father further on the subject.
But true to form, Mattheo did the opposite of what was expected of him, instead raising his voice, cursing his father for his decisions and telling him that he wanted more of a say in the plans for his life. The Dark Lord clearly did not like being talked to this way, extending his arm and flicking it over the right side of Mattheo’s face. Mattheo hissed, reeling back and holding both hands near his right eye.
When he pulled his hands back, you saw a thin clean cut from the front of Mattheo’s right cheek bone, straight through his eyebrow. “Defying me will not get you want you want boy, go back to your studies, do not bother me again.” Mattheo covered his face again, turning around and retreating from the room.
You were pulled from these memories by the booming of Mattheo’s voice, “ENOUGH!” Your head dropped, eyes staring at the ground, too afraid to meet Mattheo’s gaze after what you had just seen. He dug his wand into the underside of your chin, forcing you to look at him. When you met his gaze his eyes were like a black hole, complete darkness and void. “Are you proud of yourself for that little trick just now?”
You grit your teeth, trying to keep your composure, “I figured you’d be, isn’t this why you’re training me with all of this? I’ve been paying attention, sir.” The last of your sentence dripped with defiance, causing Mattheo’s frown to only deepen. Then he smiled, which almost made you fearful to see in this setting, “I am proud, Princess. Because you know what this means?” Your expression blanked, staring back into his penetrating gaze and shaking your head, “while I still plan on getting to the bottom of all your secrets, today’s little stunt means we can move on to next stage.”
You swallowed hard, trying to not sound as intimidated as you felt, “What’s the next stage?” Mattheo’s grin grew wider, eye’s gleaming with a hint of something you couldn’t quite read, but you weren’t even sure you wanted to. Then you heard it. A voice that was not your own inside your head, Internal communication, Princess. Your eyes widened and Mattheo let out a low chuckle before speaking to you again, C’mon, pretty girl. You can do it. Talk back to me. I know you pay attention.
Squeezing your eyes shut you tried to concentrate, but Mattheo’s hand grabbed your face, giving your cheeks a light squeeze, “Eyes open, Princess. Look at me.” You opened your eyes, your faces were so close you could see the freckles across the bridge of his nose. You could also see the light lines from magical healing on the scar by his right eye. “Focus,” his voice cutting through your internal breakdown of his features. You stared at him, concentrating as hard as you could, thinking of what you wanted to say to him right now, but not knowing if he’d hear you or not.
You’re a fucking prick, you thought. Mattheo wore a devilish grin as he released your face, “Oh, but darling, I’m your prick now.” You rolled your eyes, much to Mattheo’s amusement. “You did good today, Princess. I’m proud of you.” You looked down at your hands in your lap, trying to hide the rush of color that spread across your cheeks at his praise. You weren’t even sure why you wanted it with how infuriating he was most of the time.
Mattheo walked round his desk, sitting down in the chair across from you, “I have your first task for you today.” You looked up at this, brows furrowed with both confusion and worry, “W-what is it?” Mattheo twirled his wand between his fingers like a drum stick, your eyes focused to it, entranced by the way his fingers seemed to move around the object. He flattened his palm quickly, his wand making a sharp sound against the wood of his desk causing you to jump slightly in your seat.
“There’s a group of men coming to the club today. Wizards that are important to what I’m trying to build. But I’m skeptical of their loyalty. They’ve ordered a table, bottle service of course. I want you to tend to them,” you raised an eyebrow at this, “We’ve had this discussion before, Princess. You seem very non-threatening. Beyond that, you’re the newest addition. Besides those of us at the club, no one knows how important you really are.”
“So what are you wanting me to do, seduce them in to spilling their secrets? Offer them a lap dance for every skeevy detail they tell me?” You were half joking at the suggestion. Regardless, Mattheo’s jaw clenched, “You are not a dancer. You will never be a dancer.” You opened your mouth to argue but the raise of Mattheo’s palm quickly silenced you, “I want you to tend to them, bring them any drinks they want, make sure their glasses are never empty, and I want you to listen to them. What they’re saying, how they’re saying it. Then I want you to use your new skill we practiced today to tell me anything that you think might be useful. Understood?”
You crossed your arms, eyebrows raised and eyes wide. Mattheo pinched the bridge of his nose briefly before making hard eye contact with you, “Remember you came to me, Princess. I wasn’t lying when I said I’d protect you. And I also wasn’t lying when I said you’d be useful, and that you were mine now. So…do you understand what I want you to do.”
Nodding your head, you stood up from your seat, never breaking eye contact and answering just as he taught you, Yes, sir. I understand. He smirked, and you returned the gesture before turning and leaving his office towards the dancers dressing room to get ready for your shift, your task. As you entered the changing rooms, hands on the hem of your shirt Mattheo answered you, Good girl.
A shiver ran up your spine before you shook it off. Trying to clear your mind and get ready properly. You walked to the station that you usually got ready at, sitting down and starting on your hair, you usually wore it in an updo as it got hot behind the bar, moving around so quickly and interacting with so many people. “You’re gonna wear it down, tonight,” Draco’s voice was abrupt, causing you to turn towards him.
“That sounded like a command,” you quipped, eyebrows raised. Draco huffed in annoyance, “It was, but not from me. I’m merely relaying the message. You’re also going to be wearing this,” Draco dropped a garment bag on your lap, “shoe’s are in the bag too. If you weren’t so fucking annoying you’d probably look hot tonight.” Draco eyed you up and down, “Pity.” You sneered at the blonde, “Oh go fuck yourself, Malfoy. I’m sure that’s the only action you ever get anyway.”
Draco leaned in close, not fearful of getting right in your face, “Trust me, darling. If cousin hadn’t already claimed you, I’d shut that pretty mouth up and show you just how wrong you are.” Satisfied with leaving you speechless, Draco sauntered out of the changing rooms. You stood from the vanity, hanging the garment bag on a nearby hook to unzip and examine the contents. Inside was a rich, emerald colored dress. Barely a dress, really. You felt like a better descriptions was two pieces of cloth held together with a few strings of diamonds.
There is no way in hell I’m wearing this, you thought to yourself. You nearly jumped out of your skin at the sound of Mattheo’s voice inside your head. You’re wearing the dress, the heels, and your hair is down tonight. It’s all for the task. You rolled your eyes, grumbling as you fit yourself into the slinky attire, struggling to secure the heels properly then trying to figure out a way to get your hair to cooperate while down.
“Here, doll. Let me help you,” Roxy came up behind you, hands moving and arranging your hair this way and that. After a short moment she declared she was finished, insisting you look for yourself. You gaped at the image in the mirror, not knowing what to say, “Roxy I…I look…” Roxy leaned down over your shoulder, meeting your gaze in the mirror, “You look like Mattheo is going to give you one hell of a night tonight.” You looked down at your lap bashfully, “No, you’ve got it all wrong. We’re not…It’s not like that between us.” Roxy hummed in response, “Don’t worry, it will be.”
She walked off to continue to get ready for her shift, leaving you a mess of your thoughts. You shook your head, trying to get everything straight in your mind before finishing your makeup and heading over toward the bar. As you made your way over, you could feel many pairs of eyes on you from all directions. The attention started to make you feel self-conscious, tugging at the back of the dress, trying to conceal what you could.
As you walked up to the bar you tried to ignore Enzo’s smirk, “Don’t say a word or I swear I’ll mame you.” Enzo did a zip and locking motion on his lips, but that meant nothing for the two men who were walking up behind you. “Maldetto inferno, bella ragazza,” Theo’s deep voice was accompanied by a low whistle.
You turned around, glaring. Blaise was quick to add on, “He’s right, love. You look bloody magnificent. The boss pick that out?” You rolled your eyes, effectively giving him his answer, “I’ve been given my first task tonight, boys,” you did an exaggerated curtsy, “So get your looks in while you can, but this is not the attire I will be sporting regularly.”
Blaise raised his eyebrows in slight shock, “You’ve got a task? Seems a bit early, no?” He gave the other two boys a glance, “What made him think you were ready?” It was your turn to smirk, concentrating hard as you looked at him, allowing your thoughts to invade his, Because I learned a new trick. Blaise laughed out loud, causing both Theo and Enzo to look at you both questioningly.
“Go on, show them then,” He gestured towards Theo. You turned towards the tall man, concentrating, You’re a twat. Theo held his hand to his chest, “You wound me, uccellina.” You turned around, facing Enzo now. He held a wide smile, “Be easy on me now, Angel.”
You looked at him with a kind smile, not even needing to think hard before conveying your message into his mind, I’m so sorry about a few weeks ago, I’m sorry if I hurt you. Enzo shook his head, holding his arms open wide for you. You embraced him without question, squeezing him tight around his middle. He mumbled into your hair, “You saved me, like a true angel. Nothing to be sorry about.”
“Oi, what the fuck?” Theo pointed at the interaction, “I get told I’m a twat and Enzo’s hugging her. She’s playing favorites.” Blaise’s shook his head, taking his friend by the arm and leading him away. You stepped back from Enzo, him dabbing beneath your eyes, “Can’t have your pretty face all blotchy for the plan now, hmm?” You let out a soft laugh, then at the sound of Mattheo’s voice, your spine stiffened. They’re here.
Your task was proving to be seemingly easy. For the majority of the night you brought three gentleman drinks, again and again. None of which were saying much beyond disgusting conversation about different dancers that were appearing on stage. It wasn’t until about their fourth scotch that any relevant information seemed to pass their lips.
As you were handing out the current round of drinks, your ears perked at what they were saying. “Mattheo has no idea, I’m sure of it,” a rather stout man was shaking his head, eyes lingering a little too long down the front of your dress as you bent down to hand him his drink. Your stomach churned at the way he was looking at you, but the feeling quickly dissipated at the next man's sentence.
“That’s the problem, he’s still just a boy. A boy who’s trying to conquer his father’s footsteps, but in reality he’s just following right in them, straight to his death if you ask me.” His sentence startled you, causing you to spill the drink slightly in his lap, “Oh, sir, I’m so sorry! How stupid of me.”
The thinner man only gave you a smile that gave you the feeling of being covered in slime, “Oh, no worries, poppet, you can just go get me another.” You nodded, doing your best to look bashful instead of worried. As you turned to leave the man gave your arse a firm slap, causing a slight yelp to leave your lips. “Hurry back,” the man chided as you walked quickly to the bar.
When you got there Enzo gave you a concerned look, “S’everything alright over there, Angel?” You nodded, still looking slightly annoyed and caught off guard, “Yes, relatively speaking. I just got fucking groped but I guess that’s custom of playing the part, hmm?”
Enzo’s once calm demeanor immediately turned sour, his eyes darkening to a shade you’ve never seen them before, “Which one?” You looked at him, tilting your head. Enzo spoke again, deeper, stronger, “Which one of those fucking gits touched you inappropriately?” You shook your head, placing a hand on his shoulder, “S’okay, Enzo, nothing I can’t handle. Take a deep breath. Look, Mattheo’s walking over there now, just, make this drink again and once I’ve told Mattheo what he needs to know I’ll be back here for the rest of the night.” Enzo nodded, reluctantly, placing a new drink in your hand as well as Mattheo’s usual.
As you walked back towards the group of men, your eyes locked with Mattheo’s. You handed the thinner man his drink, smiling sickeningly sweet at him before handing Mattheo his. With a quizzical eye Mattheo’s voice rang between your ears, Any useful intel? You bid the other men goodbye, nodding at Mattheo acknowledging you heard what he had asked.
Walking back towards the bar you gave Mattheo your report, They’re planning on backing out of your deal, they think you’re no better than your father. That you’re going to fail just like he did. They said that your ego is getting in the way of reality and you’ve lost sight of the true vision. You glanced back at the meeting, seeing Mattheo’s jaw visibly clench before glancing back towards you, letting you know he heard what you had said.
You were too nosy, needed to know what was still happening. When you saw the conversation seemingly finishing up, you walked back over with the cover that you were collecting glasses. You looked over at Mattheo, but he avoided your gaze. He told the men to enjoy the rest of the night, handing them a stack of muggle cash for the dancers before leading you away.
“What happened, did you tell them to fuck off? Threaten them for what they’re planning?” Mattheo continued to look forward, leading you toward the bar, “I made the deal.” You scoffed, nearly dropping the tray in your hands in the process, “Are you crazy? Did you not hear me before, they’re screwing you over, Mattheo.” The man only huffed out a slight laugh, “Princess, you have so much to learn. Those men will learn their lesson, but I have to let them think they have the upper hand. The boys and I will sort the rest out later.”
You wanted to ask him what he meant by that. How they were going to sort it out. If that meant that one of them were going to end up hurt like Enzo before. But Mattheo walked away, holing himself up in his office for the rest of the night.
In the end you were thankful as working behind the bar proved far less stressful than the two hours you were tasked with maintaining calmness with people that were clearly hoping for Mattheo’s and essentially the rest of yours downfall. You found yourself glad that Mattheo stuck you with this job versus a dancer right now, Enzo proving very lively company most nights. You cared for him like a brother, feeling protective over him, especially after the last incident a few weeks ago.
As the night was wrapping up, Mattheo came out of his office to bid the slimey wizards goodbye. Promising again to make good on his end of the deal and walking them towards the exit doors. You assisted Enzo with cleanup of the bar, washing glasses and collecting trash that the muggle patrons seemed to always leave behind. You were tying up the bag when Enzo walked over, offering to take it to the bin out back.
You stared at him incredulously, “I think I can manage taking out some rubbish, Enz. Just don’t apparate home without me, mkay?” Enzo held up his hands in defeat, nodding and promising not to leave you behind. You made your way towards the back side exit, walking outside into the alleyway and tossing the bag in the large bin. You shivered slightly at the drop in temperature compared to inside the club, intensely remembering how little clothing you actually had on tonight.
Making your way back towards the door, a low and dangerous voice met your ears, “Funny finding you out here, poppet. But then again, I was hoping you’d come.” You stopped in your tracks, turning slowly to see that the thin man was not alone, but also accompanied by his two friends from earlier.
You did your best to put on a polite smile, “Yes, well. End of the night duties call. I drew the rubbish straw.” You let out a nervous laugh, trying to subtly walk backwards towards the door again. The thinner man was tall, his long strides bringing him close to you far too quickly, “Pretty thing like you shouldn’t be handling the rubbish. She should be worshiped.”
He continued to walk closer to you until he somehow managed to back you against the side of the building. You yelped slightly when your back hit the wall, almost knocking the breath out of yourself. The man simply smiled, reaching his hand up to caress your cheek slightly. You flinched at the contact, causing a low rumble of a laugh to emit from him, “Don’t be afraid, poppet. I’m gonna take good care of you, just like you took care of me and my boys all night.”
You shook your head, “Thank you for the offer sir, but I’m really not interested. If I could just,” you went to push him back, make your way back towards the door when he gripped your wrist. His hold was harsh, surely to leave a bruise and he slammed your back up against the brick wall again. The stones of your dress dug into your back, causing a whimper to leave your throat.
“Such a pretty sound,” he cupped your cheek now. You turned away from him, pleading, “Please, no. I don’t want to.” He gripped your chin, the action having the complete opposite effect on you than when Mattheo does it. Mattheo. You needed Mattheo.
You squirmed in the man’s hold, trying desperately to avoid his touches, avoid his lips as he tried to place them on yours. Trying to focus on only Mattheo as you screamed for him in your thought, Mattheo, please. Merlin, please help.
You looked back towards the man, a dangerous hunger in his eyes. He leaned in, trying to capture your lips with his but you pulled away again. Instead his mouth and tongue trailing down the side of your neck. Princess, where are you, what’s wrong?
You almost cried out in relief hearing Mattheo’s voice in your head. You tried again to push the man off, but this only made him angry. He gripped your wrist tighter, turning you around and pushing you face first into the bricks. His body was flush to yours, his breath hot in your ear, “You’re fighting me so much, poppet, if you wanted it rough, you should’ve just said so to begin with.”
Eyes closed, you tried to hold your composure. Back alley. You managed to get out to Mattheo as you felt the mans fingertips trailing down your spine, tracing the cross-crosses of the diamond straps. You shifted once more, only for the man to push you harder against the wall, you felt the brick dig into your cheek, whimpering as you felt the warmth of blood on your face.
The pop of an apparition alerted the man and the others to company. The man finally released you to turn towards the intrusion, giving you the opportunity to turn around and see Mattheo and the other boys all surrounding the men. You slid down the wall, hugging your knees to yourself as you watched the impending chaos ensue.
Without warning Mattheo cast a spell at the man, who deflected it with a laugh, “What’s wrong, Riddle? Didn’t daddy ever teach you to share your toys?” Mattheo bore his teeth to the man, throwing several more spells his way. Behind him, Theo and Blaise had a hold of the man’s two cronies while Enzo and Malfoy held a wand to each of their throats. You hugged your knees to yourself tighter, taking your wand from your thigh strap and gripping it with all your might.
“Was it not you, Monti, who said I would be stupid to follow in my father’s footsteps, why would I listen to anything he had to say, especially sharing?” Mattheo taunted. The man, Monti, turned to you with an evil glare in his eyes, “So you’re more than just a pretty face with a tight ass, hmm, poppet? And here I thought you were just a daft fucking bimbo.” Monti pointed his wand towards you, raising it high as he prepared to cast whatever spell he had in mind.
“You’re a waste of existence, Monti. And it’s going to give me so much pleasure to fucking kill you,” Mattheo flicked his wand, barely even perceptible to someone who wasn’t paying attention. Monti’s wand flew from his hands, him turning around to face Mattheo again, “Wha-” Monti’s sentence was cut short by the red light that emitted from Mattheo’s wand, causing the thin man to fall onto the pavement in pain.
Mattheo released the man from the spell, Monti gasping for breath as Mattheo spoke once more, “If there’s one thing my father taught me, it’s how to effectively torture.” Mattheo mumbled the cruciatus curse once more, red light hitting the man, causing him to scream out in pain. “What’s wrong, Monti. I thought you liked it rough,” Mattheo grit through his teeth. “What you fail to realize, Monti, is that I did learn something from my father’s mistakes. You see,” he intensified his curse, the man losing breath from the amount of pain he was in, “my father used to take his enemies and make them into slaves, torturing them until they were basically puppets for his own use. But me. Oh I prefer loyalty. Which means you,” Mattheo halted his torture for a moment, leaning down towards Monti’s face, “you are now completely useless to me.” Mattheo stood tall, his wand pointed down towards the man who was looking at him with pleading eyes. “Avada Kedavra.”
The green light from Mattheo’s wand hit Monti square in the chest and instantly he was motionless. You covered your mouth to conceal your gasp, tears streaming down your face. “Boss,” Enzo’s voice rang out over the silence. Mattheo turned to the others, still holding Monti’s people hostage. Mattheo gave the most subtle of nods and you saw Enzo’s eyes darken, the most sinister grin you’ve ever seen slowly appear on his face.
Enzo turned towards the man Theo was holding. The man began pleading for his life, screaming that he’d be loyal to Mattheo, do anything he wanted. But his words were cut short, soon turning to a gurgling mess as Enzo swiftly dragged his wand across the man’s throat, whatever spell he used making a clean line across his jugular. For good measure Enzo slowly dragged his wand from the man’s pubic bone up to his sternum, effectively splitting the man wide open. Theo released the man then, allowing his dead carcass to sink to the pavement as the contents of his body slowly spilled from the wounds.
Malfoy took a different approach to his torture and kill, casting a spell that essentially made the man Blaise was holding start choking on water. So while Enzo was carving his kill, Malfoy’s was slowly drowning without any hope of recovery. When both of Monti’s cronies were dead, laying lifeless on the pavement you couldn’t stop yourself from letting out a choked sobbing noise from what you had just witnessed. At the sound, all five men then turned in your direction, seemingly forgetting you were still there and just witnessed them in their most sinister forms.
Immediately Mattheo rushed to your side, wrapping his arms around you and burying your face into his chest, a hand behind your head to hold you close. You couldn’t stop the tears from coming now, sobs overtaking your body, making your whole form shake. “Malfoy call for Pansy. Now,” Mattheo ordered. Malfoy nodded, face stoic. In less than a minute Pansy was exiting the back door, taking in the scene around her. “For fucks sake, guys,” she ran a hand through her hair, quickly throwing it up into a ponytail.
Mattheo turned to her, still holding on to you, “Pansy, call for Gimball so he can help you and the other’s clean this up. I’m going to take her back to the manor.” You couldn’t see it with your head burried in Mattheo’s chest, but the others all looked at you with concern. Pansy nodded at the order, calling for Gimball who immediately appeared in the alley way. “Miss Parkinson,” Gimball nodded towards her. Gimball took in the scene around him, turning towards Mattheo now, “Quite a mess, Master Riddle, quite a mess indeed.” Mattheo huffed, “I don’t have time for a lecture now, Gimball. You can do it later.” The house elf walked off towards Enzo’s victim, grumbling.
Mattheo turned towards the others, “I can trust you to handle this, yes?” Everyone nodded. “We’ll take care of it, boss,” Blaise assured him. Mattheo stood then, bringing you to stand with him. You wrapped your arms around his neck, face buried between his collar and jaw. Mattheo held the back of your head, keeping you pressed close to him with the other wrapped around your waist to hold you tight. He leaned down close to your ear, “Ready, Princess?” You nodded your head, and in an instant you both were standing in your room.
Once you realized that you were in the safety of the manor and the initial adrenaline wore off it was like your body weighed two tons, your legs giving out and you nearly collapsing. Mattheo could feel it, your muscles relaxing, almost too much. He caught you quickly, leaning down to hook your knees over his elbow and lift you up, carrying you over to your bed. As he set you down you curled back into yourself, pulling your knees back to your chest and laying on your side.
Mattheo placed a gentle kiss on your temple, causing you to flinch slightly. “I’ll be right back, Princess.” You wanted to protest, open your mouth and ask him not to leave you alone, but you watched as he walked to the en suite towards your bathroom. You heard the sound of water before Mattheo came walking towards you again. “C’mon, love,” he slid one arm under your shoulders, the other under your knees again. You wrapped your arms around his neck to allievate some of your weight, which was entirely unnecessary because he carried you to the bathroom as if you weighed nothing.
Once in the bathroom he sat you down on the counter. Mattheo knelt down, undoing the buckles of your heels, sliding them off your feet. His hands trailed up your calves, along the sides of your thighs, when he reached the bottom hem of your dressed he met your eyes, silently asking if it was okay. You gave him a small nod. He wrapped one arm under your thighs, lifting you up slightly to continue lifting your dress up your form before setting you back down on the counter.
“Arms up,” you did as told, Mattheo pulling the dress up and over your head before placing it on the counter beside you. You wrapped your arms around your chest, more so from the slight cold than from being fully exposed to him. At the moment you couldn’t really bring yourself to care. Mattheo grabbed a washcloth from the counter, running it under hot water. He gently held your chin between his forefinger and thumb, lightly dabbing the washcloth over the cut on your cheek and cleaning the blood from your face.
When he was finished he took out his wand, mumbling a simple healing spell over the small wound. He gently ghosted his fingers over the bruise forming on your wrist, you not being able to help but flinch slightly. He turned the water off from the tub before picking you up once more to place you in the water. Once he did, he went to stand; you grabbed hold of his hand, halting his movement, “Will you…sit with me?” He nodded, “Course, Princess. I won’t leave you.” He went to stand up again but you shook your head, “No, like will you sit with me…here,” you nodded toward the water around you, “in the tub.”
Mattheo gave you a look, one that clearly read, are you sure? You nodded again, a soft, “Please,” leaving your lips. He nodded and you let him stand up fully. You watched as his hands undid each button of his dress shirt before letting it fall from his shoulders. You let your eyes wander over his skin again, taking in the different shades of black and greys of the tattoos that were scattered over his chest and stomach, down his arms to his hands and fingers. You didn’t miss the dark mark on his left forearm as he undid the buttons of his trousers. There were deep scars over it, like he had tried to remove it from himself and failed every time.
He took steps back toward the tub and you slid forward slightly to allow him some room. He kept his briefs on, wanting to make sure not only you were comfortable but also that he had no other ill intentions despite you being fully exposed. When he was fully seated in the tub you slid backwards again until your back hit his chest. You leaned back against him and he wrapped his arms around your shoulders. You wrapped your hands around his forearm, burying your face in the crook of his elbow.
You felt Mattheo’s lips press gently at your hairline behind your ear before he rested his chin on your shoulder. “I’m so sorry,” he spoke gently after a moment, “Tonight was all my fault, I shouldn’t have…maybe you weren’t ready.” You gave his forearm a light squeeze, lifting your head up to rest your cheek on his arm. “S’not your fault. And I felt ready…still feel ready, guess I just didn’t realize what all the business really entailed.”
Mattheo let out a long sigh, “I dunno, love. Maybe wait a couple week-” You shook your head, “No. Don’t do that, I’ll be okay. I just…didn’t realize how vicious everyone could really be, I mean Enzo..” You could feel Mattheo smirk slightly, “I told you he was my most dangerous, Princess.” You scoffed, “Yeah but you didn’t tell me he was basically Sammy the Bull.” Mattheo turned his face toward yours, eyebrows furrowed so fiercely they were nearly touching. You rolled your eyes, “Sammy the Bull…Salvatore Gravano,” you paused again but Mattheo only widened his eyes for further explanation. “He’s a very notorious hitman for the muggle mafia, Teo. You should know this, you work with muggles sometimes don’t you.”
You turned your head to fully meet his eyes, only to see them sparking slightly, him holding a mischievous grin. “What?” You asked curiously. Mattheo held his smile, “Did you just call me Teo?” A blush crept up your neck and over your cheeks, “I, erm, yes. I don’t know why, it just, slipped I’m sorry.” He laughed then, a light chuckle that rumbled his chest and vibrated against your back, “S’okay, Princess. I don’t mind. S’cute.”
This only made you blush harder, burying your face into the crook of his elbow again. He let out another small laugh before fitting his face in the crook of your neck. You both stayed like that, wrapped in each other until the water began to run cold. Mattheo then helped you out of the tub, insisting that he dry you and taking a little to much time drying your thighs and bum. When you scolded him he only smirked, “I’m a man, Princess, you can’t blame me.”
He followed you back into the bedroom, insisting on helping you get dressed in your sleep shirt and tank before grabbing his sweats from the bed and pulling them on. “When did those get there?” You questioned as you pulled back the duvet. You had finally gotten one that fit the bed, a beautiful lindworm green color that you felt matched not only the aesthetic of the room but the house as well. “I asked Pansy to put them there when I brought you to the bath,” he said simply as he rounded the bed, preparing to get in as well.
“You’re staying?” There was more hopeful surprise in your tone than you really wanted to reveal to him, but the flutter in your stomach at the prospect was undeniable. “Of course, Princess. I told you,” he settled further in to the bed, slipping his arm under your waist and pulling your chest flush to his side, “I’m not leaving you.” He grabbed the crook of your knee like he did before, hiking your leg up and over his waist.
He rested his hand over the expanse of your thigh, the arm that was wrapped around you bent so his hand could run his fingers through your hair, “Close your eyes, Princess. I’ve got ya.” The heat radiating off Mattheo along with him just fully enveloping you lulled you into a deep sleep. Again, you slept with no nightmares. Again, you woke up alone.

Warnings: mentions of blood and violence
You grasped at the object your arm was slung around, expecting the warmth and hardness of Mattheo’s chest. Instead you grasped onto the silk of a pillowcase. Your eyes slowly fluttered opened, your mind trying to organize your thoughts and figure out if last night really happened or not.
Laying your head on the pillow in your grasp, you were hit with the unmistakable scent of Mattheo. The mix of sandalwood and amber mixed with fire whiskey and smoke flooded your senses. You tried to remember the feeling of his arms wrapped around you as you drifted off into your first peaceful sleep in months, but all you could remember was the light ghosting of his fingertips on your skin.
You sat up in bed, taking in the room around you again. Beyond his scent on your pillow, there was no trace of Mattheo in your room whatsoever. Climbing down from the bed you walked over to your barren closet, choosing something simple for the day before you decided to explore the manor. Grabbing your tea from Gimball from the nightstand, you slid your feet into your slippers and headed towards the door. You’d have to ask Gimball for his tea recipe, it was perfect.
Stepping in to the hall you take notice of how much more elegant the hall looks with the sunlight peeking in. You stared at the double doors next to yours, wondering if Mattheo was inside, wondering what time he left you alone in your bed. Did he wait until you were just asleep? Did he stay there and hold you for hours before finally retreating to his own room, or did he leave in the morning just before you woke? Your hand hovered above the door knob, contemplating the risks and rewards of trying to enter Mattheo’s room.
“He’s not here,” Pansy’s voice cut through your internal thoughts, making you whip around and grab your mug with both hands. “Oh, erm, yeah, that’s fine. I was just, ehm, where is he, do you know?” Pansy narrowed her eyes, walking towards you with her arms crossed, “He and Enzo left pretty early this morning on…business.” You sipped your tea, responding with a short hum, “Mattheo said you would give me a tour of the manor today?”
Pansy nodded, turning towards the stairs, “Yes, and we’ve got a lot of ground to cover, so do try and keep up.” She started quickly down the stairs, you hustling behind her. Pansy led you down the stair case and through a set of double doors, “This is the kitchen, I don’t really know why you’d need to come down here as Gimball will bring you anything and everything you need with just a simple call and ask.” You nodded, setting your mug in the sink as you passed by.
Passing through the same doors Pansy turned down a new hall, similarly looking to the one upstairs with all of the bedrooms, “Down this hall is the security room, if you’re ever looking for Blaise or Theo they’ll likely be holed up in here doing work. This door is Draco’s office, don’t go in there unless you want a fight,” Pansy eyed you over her shoulder, “which you might want, but just be careful. Remember he’s on the team for a reason, not just because he and Mattheo are family.”
Pansy stopped at a set of double doors at the end of the hall, “These doors-” You cut her off, finishing her sentence, “lead to Mattheo’s office. The man really loves french doors, doesn’t he?” Pansy shrugged her shoulders, “What can I say, the man loves a grand entrance.” You laughed, easily agreeing with the statement.
You were led further to the outside of the house, presented with a larger in ground pool the size of a tennis court. Beyond the pool Pansy showed you the vineyard, thanks to Theo’s family, and the large and expansive garden. She led you to the front entrance of the garden, telling you of all the different flowers and plants that were growing inside, “We basically have the garden enchanted like a greenhouse, allowing us access to essentially any ingredients we would need for any potion we would need. Would you believe me if I told you the one we make the most are healing concoctions.”
A light laugh escaped your lips, “Surprisingly yes, I do believe that.” You walked side by side back towards the manor, you gnawing at your lip deciding if you should ask the question that was beating at your brain. You couldn’t see it but Pansy was smirking, “Ask your question, I can tell you’re dying to.” You let out a huff, “Am I that easy to read? Mattheo certainly won’t like that.”
Pansy’s eyes sparkled with something you couldn’t quite read, “I’m sure he likes you just fine.” You opened your mouth to protest when she cut you off, “Question, Birdie, what was it?” You frowned slightly, “Everyone just going to call me Birdie now instead of my real name? You know what, whatever. Right, so this morning you said Mattheo and Enzo left on business.” Pansy nodded, confirming she was on track with you so far, “I was just wondering…what exactly is the business. Unless they’re doing club business early in the morning.”
The smirk on Pansy’s face was telling, but you weren’t exactly sure what it was telling you. “You’re a smart witch, I’m sure you’ve gathered that there’s more than just the club when it comes to business with these boys.” You nodded, following Pansy back into the manner and towards the foyer. “Grab my arm, Birdie.” You did as told, then were instantly transported to what looked like a muggle artillery room.
“Wha-Where are we?” Pansy simply smirked, walking towards the glass door in front of you, “Believe it or not were right below the foyer. Only way to get here is through apparition and only the six of us- well I guess seven now - have the ability to do so. Theo looks daft but he’s actually fantastic as protection spells.”
Reaching her hand as far as it would go, then dragging her finger all the way down the glass. As she did so, you noticed a series of different light charges shift within the door frame before hearing a clicking sound, signifying an unlocking. “This,” Pansy opened the door, signaling for you to follow her, “is your first glimpse into the business.”
You marveled at the room around you, never seeing muggle weapons in person. They were shinier than you expected, in an array of grays, silvers and blacks. You were surprised at all the different shapes and sizes they seemed to come in, confused further why a band of wizards would see a purpose in them. “Muggle weapons are the business? That doesn’t make any sense, Pans.”
The black haired girl simply shook her head, “Weapons are the way in to the bigger picture, Birdie.” You walked up to a wall fingers dancing over what looked like a long black gun with an attached barrel to the end, “Which is what?” Pansy walked up behind you, “Power. Mattheo is building an empire, love. Not just in the wizarding world, but the muggle one as well. If there’s ever another war, he doesn’t want to make the same mistakes that his father did.”
The last sentence gave you the little bit of detail to connect the dots that you needed to better understand Mattheo and his ways, his demeanor. You felt stupid for not making the connection earlier, but you blamed Mattheo and his charm for distracting you from thinking clearly. “Mattheo is Voldemort’s son,” it left your lips in almost a whisper. Pansy nodded, “I wouldn’t bring it up, though. He’s got quite a distaste for his father. But you can’t blame him. Not after how he grew up, everything he had to deal with.”
You turned to Pansy, “How does no one know that Voldemort had a son?” Pansy held out her arm, you took it without hesitation. In a whirl you were back in the foyer, following Pansy to the sitting room watching as she collapsed on one of the couches by the fireplace. You gave her an incredulous look. She huffed, sitting up straighter and rolling her eyes, “If you sit, Birdie, I’ll tell you, but not everything. That’s for Mattheo to do. If he wants to.”
You sat on the couch across from her, not being able to help but sink into the plush cushions and relaxing slightly. Pansy let out a long sigh before starting, “Mattheo hides his past very well, better than you even and you seem like almost an expert at it. Mattheo didn’t attend school with the rest of us, his mother choosing to homeschool him, teaching him what she thought was important and what he would need to be a real leader. Guess she was right about that part.”
“How are he and Draco related? I know that the Malfoy’s were loyal death eaters but I didn’t think they were related to the Dark Lord himself.” Pansy shook her head, “You’re right there, they’re not related through him. Their mother’s are sisters, Draco’s actually almost a year older than Mattheo but you couldn’t tell by how timid and scared he acts around him.” You both laughed at this, even in the few days you had been around the group you recognize everyone cowering away from Mattheo if his voice was raised even slightly.
A popping sound signaled the arrival of someone near the foyer. “Must be the boys,” Pansy stood from the sofa, you following quickly behind her. You gasped at the sight before you. Mattheo’s white dress shirt was ripped like someone has pressed him against a shredder, cuts and new bruising evident behind the tears. He had blood splattered across his cheek, though it did not seem to be of his own. His knuckles were dripping, from what you were sure was a mix of his own blood and whoever he had seemed to beat.
Enzo was leaning most of his weight on his slightly shorter friend, eyes fluttering between awareness and close to losing consciousness. His arm that was not slung over Mattheo’s shoulders was pressed against his side where he was bleeding…badly. The gash in his side did not seem to be from anything muggle or an object, but from magic as you could see the black rim of the edges of his skin. “What the fuck happened?” You voice was the first to break the silence beyond Enzo’s moaning.
“Pansy grab the others, and some healing potions,” Matteo barked the order out like he’d said it a hundred times, which at his calmness of this situation made you think he had. You quickly conjured a table and helped Mattheo place Enzo on it. You looked over Enzo completely, seeing a few more cuts on his legs, the gash on his stomach, going up further he had a few defensive wounds on his forearms and a couple of cuts on his face.
When your face was level with Enzo’s eyesight, he smiled slightly, “Well, hey there, Angel.” You ran your thumb along his cheek bone, “Hey, Enzie. I’m gonna fix you up, but it’s gonna hurt. Try not to move, and try not to be mad at me after, okay?” Enzo did his best to nod before his eyes fluttered closed again. You grabbed your wand from your pocket, knowing where you’d have to start first when Mattheo seized your wrist, “What do you think you’re doing?”
“What does it look like? I’m trying to help now if you would just let…go of me,” Mattheo’s grip only tightened as you tried to pull away. “Do you even know what you’re doing, Princess? You don’t even know what happened or what he was hit with. Pansy’s getting the healing potions, I don’t need you fucking up my best defense.”
You scoffed at his skepticism, “Well by the discoloration around his wound I can tell you he was hit with dark magic. And those healing potions, I looked at them today when Pansy gave me my little grand tour, it’ll take your best defense a week to heal with those, while if you would just let me get to work he’ll be mostly healed by the morning. Now, if you excuse me,” you yanked your wrist again, harder this time. You know the only reason you were able to was because Mattheo let go, but you got straight to work anyway.
Placing your wand between your teeth briefly you used both hands to rip Enzo’s shirt open, fully exposing the depths of what you were dealing with. The open wound went diagonally from his right hip to almost the center of his abdomen. You waved your wand over the length of his body, mending all of the small cuts quickly. Mattheo watched as you worked, standing across from you in a worried stance, one hand over his mouth while his elbow rested on the arm over his chest.
Pansy and the others came barreling down the hall, several different healing potions in hand, “What does she think she’s doing?” Malfoy shouted, your previous impression still leaving a bitter taste in his mouth. “Leave her, cousin, we’re going to see how truly valuable she is to us.” Mattheo’s instruction left everyone standing, watching as you worked.
You mumbled an incantation under your breath, beginning to pull the darkness from around the edges of Enzo’s wound. But the pain was too much for him, his eyes shooting open and back immediately arching off the table, “BLOODY FUCKING HELL!” Your frown deepened, “I know, Enz, I’m so sorry, but you’ve got to stay still.” He shook his head, “C-can’t…can’t do it, hurts t-to much, Angel.”
You looked at Mattheo, eyes pleading. He understood what you were thinking immediately, turning towards the others, eyebrows raised. You turned back towards Enzo, leaning close to his face, “The boys are gonna help, okay? They’re gonna hold you down. I need to get it out of you before you can heal properly, okay, Enz? It’s gonna hurt, but you gotta try and stay still. Just try, the boys will help.”
You made eye contact with Mattheo, nodding. He glanced over at the rest of the boys, who each grabbed hold of a limb on Enzo. “I’m so sorry, Enz,” you whispered before hovering your hands over the gash. “Just do it Angel, m’bout to pass out, I can feel it.” You nodded, circling your wand and mumbling the same incantation from before. Your twirled the tip of your wand, pulling up slowly as what looked like shimmering black liquid began to lift from Enzo’s wound.
“What the fuck is that…” Theo gasped as he watched as the string got thicker and longer. When the tail end of the black liquid flicked out you grabbed hold of it with your free hand, holding your wand high above your head to keep as much distance between Enzo and the liquid as you could. “Pansy, a vial, please,” you looked over at her. Pansy stood frozen, eyes stuck on the struggling presence in your hand. “PANSY!” Mattheo’s booming voice snapped her out of whatever trance she was in.
Pansy rushed to your side, empty vial in hand as you guided the contents of your wand and palm inside. As she clogged the top Theo tried to get someone to pay attention to him again, “Is no one going to tell me what that fucking thing was that she just pulled out of Enzo? Was that his fucking soul?”
Blaise rolled his eyes, “You’re a fucking moron, Nott, you know that?” You elbowed Blaise in the side, causing a low grain to emit from the man, “It was dark magic. It gets attached to you when you’re hit with certain spells. It makes it harder for you to heal and is extremely difficult to remove. But once you do you can usually heal the person like normal.”
You held your wand hand over Enzo’s abdomen again, mumbling another healing spell and watching as ribbons of white began connecting the opposite edges of his wound. “Do you have any gauze?” You looked up at Mattheo. He flipped his hand around, summoning a first aid kid and digging around until he found what you had asked for. You wrapped the gauze around Enzo’s middle, the rest of the boys helping lift him in order to wrap it all the way around and secure it properly.
When you were finished, you let out an exasperated sigh, “He’s gonna be out of it for the rest of the night, but he should be basically back to his old self by morning, maybe a little sore but nothing like if he’d only taken the potion. You could probably give him that as well, help with the pain.” You looked over at Blaise and Theo, “You can take him to his room, just dont push on his side. Have Gimball give him something to drink in an hour, I’d watch him for the next three just to make sure he doesn’t get any worse.”
The two boys nodded, hauling Enzo up under his shoulders and walking up the stairs. You shoved your wand back in your pocket with intentions of heading back toward the sitting room when you felt a strong grip on your arm. You turned to see Mattheo, expression unreadable. Before you could protest he was dragging you down the hall, “Mattheo, what the fuck? Let go!” Mattheo said nothing in response and he dragged you further down the hall until you were standing in front of his office doors.
He mumbled reverse protection spells before opening the doors and throwing you inside. You luckily had the wherewithal to catch yourself on his large desk before turning around to face him. “What the hell is wrong with you?” You were practically screaming in his face yet he stood stoic. Except for his eyes. When you looked into his eyes they were darker than you’d ever seen them, like you were staring into an abyss and you were about to be sucked in. You wanted to challenge him, push him into showing you some emotion. You took a step closer, your chest nearly flush to his while you shoved a finger against one of his pecs, “Are you gonna answer me, boss?”
“Are you finished?” Mattheo peered down at you. You scowled at him, taking a step back and leaning against his desk, crossing your arms, “For now.” Mattheo rolled his eyes, “I knew you were going to be difficult but I didn’t expect you to be a brat.” You scoffed, rolling your eyes. He grabbed hold of your chin, fingers squeezing your face, “Just like that. You gonna tell me how you pulled that little stunt in the foyer just now? How you managed to pull that shite from Berkshire?”
You pushed his hand from your face, “My mother taught me. I never had to use it growing up. But after the war I got more practice.” Mattheo closed his eyes at the mention of his father’s previous doings. “He’s going to be fine, you know,” your voice was soft, assuming Mattheo was worried about Enzo. Mattheo shook his head, “I know,” a small smile appeared on his face, “I just can’t believe how much I underestimated how useful you would be to us.”
Your eyebrows furrowed in confusion, “What?” Mattheo opened his eyes, a low laugh emitting from his throat, “Oh, Princess.” He reached out, cupping your cheek, “I knew you were special that first time you walked into my office. I know Pansy told you what we do, what I’m working towards.” You nodded, still not understanding what he was getting at. He leaned in close, nose nearly touching yours, “Then you know it can get dangerous, hell today was a perfect example.”
“Mattheo I still don’t unders-” Mattheo pressed his thumb to your lips, “You’re mine now, Princess.” Your heart was thundering in your chest, it felt like he had a hold of it and was squeezing. You were sure he could feel your pulse beneath his fingertips as he leaned in closer, lips ghosting against your ear as he whispered, “And you’re never going to leave.”

Lost~ the slytherins
Tumblr media
“Angel!? Come on out please baby!? I’ll give you a lot of candy!” Pansy said profusely looking around the common room for you.
She had lost you in a game of hide and seak about 5 minutes ago but her being the person she is, was already worried.
Little did she know you were tucked away in the gryffindor common room with your stuffed animal giggling with your hand over you mouth so she couldn’t hear you.
“Hey tiny, what are you doing here all alone?” Hermione asked worriedly looking around trying to find at least one of your caregivers. “Relax hermione. She’s obviously playing aren’t you?” The twins chimed in looking at your huddled figure tucked in the extra gryffindor broom closet.
You nodded giggling making hermione look at you with sympathy. “Have you told your mommy your here?” She asked you. You shook your head oblivious to her concern.
“Why would she tell her hermione that would obviously ruin the point of hide and seak” Ron replied matter of factly. She rolled her eyes before returning her gaze back to you.
“You wanna come with me and Harry? Your mommy is probably looking you for you” she suggested making you nod. You were getting a bit uncomfortable in the position you were in anyway.
“Hey hermione, hey tiny! Just got back from extra quidditch lessons!” Harry said panting giving you a hug. “Hi Harry!” You greeted him. “She said she was playing hide and seek with Pansy but she never told her she was going into the gryffindor common room.” Hermione explained to Harry making him furrow his eyesbrows.
“I don’t want Pansy to get worried or anything you know?” She finished making Harry nod in understanding. “We could take her to the slytherin common room and see if Pansy or one of the boys is there or not” Harry suggested making hermione nod.
“Make sure you cover our tracks. If they don’t know we’re killing their men we’ll have the upper hand.” Mattheo said sternly looking at the men in the meeting.
“We’ll see all of you guys on Tuesday. Your dismissed” Theodore finished as they all began apperating home. With a pop they were met with a empty dorm room beside Pansy frantically looking through everything.
“What wrong Pansy? Where’s tiny?” Blaise spoke first studying the girls behavior. “I lost her!” She exclaimed making their eyes widened.
“What the fuck do you mean you lost her?!?” Mattheo shouted. “I don’t know ok?!? We were playing hide and seek and now I can’t find her!” Pansy explained in a rush trying to explain herself.
“How do you lose her in just two hours all we did was go to a godamn meeting!?” Draco replied before running his hands through his hair in frustration.
“Daddies!” You shouted running towards mattheo. They all whipped there heads to the door being met with the golden trio with smirk on there faces. “Be careful with this one, she seams to escape a lot.” Ron chimed in before they all walked away.
Mattheo effortlessly hoisted you up to hsi waist before looking at you with a smirk. “Sneak little one aren’t cha?” He teased.
Not proofread so sorry if it’s sloppy :(

Thought I’d give you guys a little snippet of what’s to come
“Absolutely fucking not, she’s not doing it. I swear to fucking Salazar if she goes on that bloody stage it’s your head, Cousin.” You didn’t have to see his face to know Mattheo was seething and poor Malfoy was on the receiving end of it. The fiery anger in his tone only fueled your own further.
How dare he think he can decide what you can and cannot do? You didn’t care if he was the owner of the club, he had no right to tell you what decisions you could make. You were tired of him acting like he owned you when he barely even knew you.
With a deep breath you walked away from the office door, heart pounding as you made your way back to the bar. You felt like your heart beat was in your head with every step you took, the bass of the music in the club not helping ease this.
When you got back behind the bar you closed your eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath to try and center yourself. Your turned around toward the booze, grabbing the most expensive tequila the club had as you slammed four shots down in front of you.
“Y’alright, Angel?” Enzo’s eyes grew wide as you picked up one glass at a time and quickly threw them each back, the alcohol burning your throat in the most calming way. Picking up the last shot Enzo’s large hand enveloped your wrist, “Slow the fuck down, what are you doing? Trying to blackout on the job?”
Your eyes pierced his, a storm of determination brewing behind your pupils, “Enzo, let go of my wrist or I’ll hex your fucking cock off.” He shook his head, stubbornness higher than ever, “No way, Mattheo will have my throat if I let you get fucking sloshed.”
“Why does everyone act like Mattheo is my fucking keeper?” You leaned your head toward the shot, tipping it in to your mouth while Enzo still gripped your wrist. He rolled his eyes at your actions, finally letting go, “Why’re you doing this, Angel?”
You looked toward the stage as the dancer finished up her routine, crawling on her knees and swaying her hips and she picked up the large bills from the stage floor and stuffing them in to her bikini top and barely there bottoms.
Enzo followed your gaze, laughing nervously, “Oh no fucking way, hell no. You’re not…no, Angel.” You turned to face him again, pulling off your tank top to reveal your rineshtone bikini top, “Who’s gonna stop me?”
You shoved your tank top into Enzo’s chest, walking toward Blaise at the Dj booth to tell him what song you wanted and what stage name to announce. Enzo glanced around the club nervously, praying to Merlin that Mattheo was gone from the club for the night.
Enzo called after you, trying to get you to change your mind, “He’s gonna have your ass if you go through with this Angel, you know that don’t you?”
Without turning back, glancing over your shoulder you shouted back, “Let him!”
