Severe Beauty ~ Discontinued :(

So. . . Here's Half Of Chapter 3

You know, looking back in this, it is so cringy. I wrote this?! Yeah so I decided to post my unfinished Chapter 3, because it looked so sad by itself unpublished. I am not continuing though.

"Rodolphus?" Bellatrix trailed off. She studied her former husband and sighed. He had chosen the path she almost had. Finally, she broke the silence, "What are you doing down here?" He stepped closer and sighed,

"stupid punishment."

"He didn't." Bella realized. He was the one screaming, he had betrayed the dark lord once more. She looked back at him sorrowfully, "he can't have. He wouldn't dare-" She stopped abruptly, slightly shivering as he tucked a stray raven curl behind her ear. At that moment, she realized this wasn't getting anywhere, and thrust herself at him, pressing her lips against his. He responded so quickly, rapping his arms around her waist and aggressively kissing back.

Bellatrix moaned with pleasure as a sharp pain came to her lip. "Dolph.." She murmured against his lips causing him to chuckle. He took this moment of weakness to slip his tongue into her mouth, cleaning the blood.

She moaned again, moving her hands to his neck.

Snape stood outside malfoy manor. He had been called to discuss the death of Dumbledore for the thousandth time. Bellatrix knew he was a spy but she never liked to think that he spent so much time with the dark lord. Snape wanted to see her badly, so the first thing he said when Lucius opened the door was,

"Where's Bellatrix?"

A cool smile spread across Lucius's face, and Snape noticed a tearful Narcissa sitting in an armchair near them.
Snape, pretending there was nothing wrong with that, glanced back at Narcissa.

"Where is she?"

"Th- the cellar."

Without another word, he swept out of the room.

As he walked down the stairs, he could here movement, he stopped to listen, but his ears were met with silence. He unlocked the door and in the dim light, saw Bellatrix slumped against the stone wall. He rushed to her, not noticing Rodolphus standing behind them.

"Severus..."

"Bella, what happened?"

"Why are you here?" She looked pained by his presence,

"Dark lords orders. But what happened to you Bella?"

"Cissy betrayed me. She said he would kill Draco if she and Lucius didn't listen."

"What happened to you?"

She looked up at him, tears in her eyes,

"I can't."

"What?"

And this is when Snape spotted Rodolphus. He stepped away from Bellatrix, who sighed and looked back at Rodolphus.

"I- I..." She trailed off. She had no idea what to say.

"She is my wife." Rodolphus started,

"was," Snape corrected. He turned back to her and quietly said, "Your choice Lestrange."

The lack of her nickname made tears fill her eyes. Watching him turn and walk out of the dungeon, locking the door behind him.

"Bella?" A confused Rodolphus sat down beside the sobbing Bellatrix, and rapped his arms around her. She berried her face in his cloak, taking in the scent of fresh wood, leather, and almonds.

"Nothing Dolph."

Around midnight Bellatrix woke up, laying on the cold stone floor, shivering. She tossed and turned, trying to find a comfortable position. This woke Rodolphus, who pulled of his cloak and tucked it around her, brushing his lips against hers.

"Dolph..." She murmured, as he lay back down next to her,

"Yes?"

"He loves me."

"Snape?"

She was silent, and he sighed,

"Bella, if you-"

"No." She interrupted him. "I love you Dolph."

"I love you to Bella."

A/N: This is practically killing me not having her love Voldy... Sorry for the interruption.

Footsteps could be heard on the stairs and Bellatrix immediately tensed up again. Trying and failing to stand up, she lay on the floor, panting. The door opened slowly,

"My, my, what's the matter?" The cold voice of the man she hated so, sent chills down her spine. A bang, thud, and a muffled whimper could be heard and Bellatrix sat up to see Rodolphus crumpled in a corner, blood in his hair.

DUN DUN DUN. . . THE END! No more story! 😁😬
