The large space radiated bewitching hysteria as Hermione cautiously admired the seductively dark bedroom.


With a similar forlorn colour scheme throughout the elaborate building, Hermione brushed her hand against the glamorous black velvet patterned, crimson wallpaper as the wall rippled on her electric touch,


"What was that?" She gasped as she quickly whipped her hand back, witnessing the white static sparks that followed her touch before the wall returned to its solid state.


Draco smiled at the evolving witch as he walked up behind her and caressed her back with desire,
