For the rest of the day and night Aria and Lucius laid in each other's arms. They had eventually made their way back upstairs and into his bed, instead of laying down in the dungeons, but they both had no appetite for food or any energy after the whirlwind morning they had. There had been so many revelations to them both, that all they could comprehend and have the mental capacity for was just simply laying quietly and intimately together in bed.
Lucius had returned back to his usual gentle self when it came to Aria, and he casually stroked over her naked body with his fingers, light as feathers as they lay in each other's arms. Aria drifted in and out of sleep from the comforting touches of the man she loved. As for Lucius, although he laid peacefully in bed, his mind was a raging storm as he thought about all that happened that morning. Not only the turmoil and anger he had felt with his son, but also the extreme disappointment with how his son had turned out to be as an adult. Hateful and almost incapable of understanding or love. It made him angry at himself that he had raised his son to be that way. Lucius also couldn't help but wonder what Draco would do with the truth now that he knew it. Would he rat out his own Father to the Ministry? He couldn't be too sure.
Lucius then thought to what had transpired with Aria down in the dungeons. It had been insanely erotic. Lucius had not felt that dark power rise in him for so long. It was addictive yet dangerous to his soul, as it called out to him so tantalizingly. Aria had seemed to enjoy it as well, something which shocked and somewhat disturbed Lucius. She had always been the epitome of sunshine and innocence. Was he bringing out a dark side to her? He would embrace her in any form, but he couldn't help but take it upon himself that he wouldn't be the thing that would corrupt her. He loved being gentle with Aria and lavishing pleasure upon her, but he couldn't shake the feeling inside that he also greatly loved that dominant feeling he had gotten during their passionate coupling down in the dungeons. It made him feel so powerful as he held her roughly in his strong hands, her body so delicate and small under him. That is why he had felt so ashamed after their rough sex, as he would never want to do anything to hurt or scare her.
The day turned into night and the two of them had barely left bed all day. Aria had drifted in and out of sleep all day, but yet she was quite exhausted still. She was just about to fade off to sleep again when it suddenly struck her mind that she really didn't need to stay at the Manor anymore due to safety concerns. She had initially wanted to spend a few days there, because she was worried that there was someone after the new ambassadors at the Ministry, but now with the knowledge that it was Lucius, she had nothing to fear anymore about being attacked. However, she still really wanted to stay with him the next few days, if only to sort out her roller coaster of emotions from the day.
