Deception

" May I have a dance lady Potter,"

Turning around she saw ruby eyes piercing her soul. She stared right at him. Just stood there. He stood there wondering why she wasn't answering. She just looked at him.

" No, you may not, excuse me," saying that she brushed past him only to be pulled back to his well-built chest.

" Just one dance lady potter," he whispered in her ear. Reaching down to her he twirled her around and led her towards the dance floor. He put an arm around her waist, and the other held her arm. Sparks flew from just being touched. He stared at her face.

Cute, he thought.

She didn't look at him, just avoided his gaze. How could she be with the man who killed her parents? This thought was killing her from the inside.

"I know what you are thinking, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness, but just hear me out" he pleaded. The Dark Lord pleaded, what a sight, before he could start again she cut him off

"I don't want to hear anything, Lord Slytherin, you are nothing to me and there is nothing between us," she said harshly. She side-stepped him and walked over to Draco. Every step taken broke something in her. He stared at her as she walked away, finally realizing he couldn't have her.

She really is the Light's little weapon, he thought. He will never forgive her. Dark Lords don't beg and they don't offer twice.

Little did he know that she said that so he was protected.

"What was that about?" Draco asked her, she just gave him a blank look and ordered a martini.

"Just breaking hearts," she gave him a small sad smile. She felt the pain, she also felt the furious rage coming from the other end of the soul connection.

Albus Dumbledore saw a chance to sweep into the conversation, to interrogate her.

"My dear girl, you could have asked me if you wanted to know of your heritage I would have gladly - he couldn't finish his sentence, and she walked away avoiding him. He gritted his teeth in annoyance.

"Professor Dumbledore, I got to say this, she's no longer in control," saying that Draco winked at him and walked towards Astoria Greengrass.

He was still pissed at her, he saw her leave. There was a sad look on her face. He could feel her feeling defeated, he saw her use the common flu screaming one of old London's busiest road names. He followed her through flu calls, he regretted thinking that his soulmate could hurt him.

She landed gracefully and started walking into the crowded alley going to no destination, she just wandered around.

A hand caught her elbow and twirled her around, she almost lost balance but was supported. She looked right into his ruby eyes.

"I don't have the patience, and I can feel the remorse in you, so please for fucks sake talk to me," huffed Tom. She looked at him with wide eyes, confusion swirling in her eyes.

" Riddle there is nothing.." before she could start he dragged her into a dark alley and slammed her against the wall. Glaring at her he said

" If you take me to be dumb then you are highly mistaken sweetheart," he snarled at her, his eyes softening when he saw tears in her eyes, "It fucking hurts, I know I messed up long ago but, I was insane I can't do this anymore I ..." he stumbled on his words when he was pulled into a hug.

She just heard him pour out his feelings. She knew they couldn't avoid this anymore. Tears fell out of both their eyes. He buried his head into her neck inhaling her sweet vanilla scent. She kept whispering sweet words into his ear.

"I am sorry, I am so fucking sorry I didn't, I didn't mean to hurt you," she whispered.

He raised his head and stared into her eyes. He saw honesty and care in her eyes. Taking her hand he appareted out of the alley.

Caleb walked towards the guy. The guy was strikingly handsome. His eyes bore into Caleb's amber.

"Theodore" he whispered, "May I have a dance" he took his hand out for him to hold it. Theodore absent mindlessly took his hand and nodded.

Swiftly he took his hand and led him to the dance floor. He took him by his waist and started to dance.

Neither said a word just stared into each other's eyes. Emotion swirling in their eyes.

"Sufletul Pereche" Caleb whispered into his ear. Theodore froze.

"I am sorry, I am so sorry, I had to follow through with our plan, I am sorry, we had to get out of Dumbledore's nose," Theodore led him out of the ballroom.

Theodore was the heir of the house of Nott. Being on the dark side, they couldn't have direct contact.

"You listen to me and listen to me well, I know that you, Atlas, Neville, and Harriet had a plan, but we could have been discreet, but no you went on and ignored me for months, so forgive me for thinking that we are not together.." He roared at Caleb. Caleb froze, he knew he fucked big time, but he didn't know Theo was this mad.

"Love, I know.." he was cut off when lips slammed onto his. Frustration, Guilt, Betrayal, Passion, Lust, Care, Love, Anger, every emotion built up in the past months was poured out into the kiss. Both moved synchronized. Caleb bit his lip receiving a gasp from him, he shoved his tongue in. He turned over and showed that he was in charge and not anybody else. Gasping for oxygen they broke it off and stared at each other.

"Theo, You Are My Mate, MINE, " Caleb growled at each word out."And I cannot live without you, I need you, Darling, I had to protect you, I had to ignore you, every time I saw your pleading eyes, I screamed internally to come and hold you and reassure you, but I couldn't,"
Theo buried his face in his chest. Caleb felt his shirt getting wet and realized that his mate was crying.

"Oh, Darling I am sorry, I am so sorry," Gliding down the wall, he held his mate, it felt as if he was at peace. Theo held him by his toned torso and they cried for lost time. Just cried.

Apparating out of the alley. Marvolo led her to the Slytherin Castle, hidden somewhere in Scotland. He carried her bridal style towards his bedroom and slowly put her on the bed. He found himself lying next to her and caging her in between his arms. She buried her face into his chest.
He made her face him and just stated

"Start Talking".
