Nox Celebrationis - A Slytherin Party

Chapter 2

Theo offered both girls his arm and grinned at the pair, "shall we enter this hell, ladies?". Hermione rolled her eyes but her slight smirk showed the exitement of what is to come, "lead the way, Nott".

The room was full of students, all eager to move to the dark rhythm that was playing. The trio was moving through the crowd, that seemed to magically open for them as soon as Theo looked at them.

Ginny moved her eyebrows and winked, "It seems like he really is one of the Slytherin Princes". Hermione laughted.

"So Theo pray tell.. How long does this potion of yours take until it comes into effect?" Hermione drawled.

Theo looked at her mischiviously, his blue eyes deeply skimming over her body before he locked their eyes to answer.
"Can't wait to dive into your desired prey, little lion ?"

"Don't flatter yourself, Nott. " she sighed.
"I just dont feel anything yet so I was interested when the effect will set in. What is the desired effect anyway? I mean desire is just so open.. it can be so many things. So how does it present itself with your potion?", she asked.

"The ever-curious Granger", he laughed.
"Well I shall enlighten you so you can be the know it all you are. The potion is already in effect.. it just.. well it reacts just differently with every individual on how and when you can feel it... sometimes it is something unconcious like drinks, certain innocent acts or even the rhythm of the music that makes you want to dance but more often its someone you desire and something you want to do with them", Theo smirked at her, still checking her out.

"But until you meet said desired person, you would often not know that it is your deepest desire to be with them in some form or another...", a deep voice coming from behind chimed in.

"Theo, I didn't know you're friends with these two beautiful Gryffindor witches.", said the man.

Theo grinned,"Well.. it rather was a faithful encounter that made us companions for the night.. but I have the feeling we will be close pals very soon." He winked at Ginny while saying the last part. Ginny blushed and threw him a wicked glance, " Oh, I'd say we're pals already, Nott.. can't wait to explore that new found.. friendship." Ginny now looked to the handsome Slytherin that joined them "I'm Ginny, I don't think we've been introduced in person, Zabini".

Blaise Zabini took her hand and kissed it, all while deeply looking in her eyes, "I'm sad to say we haven't yet but I'm glad that just changed. I find your presence very enchanting. Care to join me for a drink, Ginevra ? I'm sure Theo can find you at a later time.. if you still want to then."

Ginny grinned but looked back at Hermione clearly unsure if the witch can leave her alone. Hermione, who saw the glint of curiousness for both man in the eyes of her friend, quickly said "I would like to dance with Theo anyway, so why don't you two go and let us enjoy ourselves. I'm sure we can find us later Ginny." Theo looked a bit grim for a second but lightened up as soon as Hermione mentioned their dance. "I'll find you later red, don't think I'll miss my chance to explore this.. friendship deeper later on, so don't be away with Zabini too long I found you first", he whispered into Ginny's ear. She shuddered visibly and smiled agreeing at the Nott heir before the two made their way to the bar.

"So Granger, it seems like you couldn't escape my charms in the end..is the potion already working for you ?". She laughed, "Don't be ridiculous Nott, even though you're indeed charming and not bad to look at, I've to say I can't feel anything other than friendly feelings for you so far. Nevertheless I'm here to have fun and you seem like a good dance partner so let's go." He laughed, "Alright lioness.. whatever you say. Though I'll be available if you change your mind." Theo took her hand to lead her to the dancefloor. The pair started dancing, his hands on her hips, hers around his neck. Even though Hermione didn't see him as a romantic possibility, the deep music pulsed dangerously in her core which made her want to sway her hips sensually with whomever it feels best... and right now the best was Theo.

The two danced for a few songs, delusional of the two icy blue eyes that followed every move. He sat in a dark corner of one of the nook's, almost obsessively tracking each movement Theo's hands made over Hermiones body. His breath quickened and he angrily took a sip of his expensive whisky. He wanted her, how dare another touch what he desires. He will get the little witch to be his at the end of the night, no one will get in the way.

Just before he was consumed by the desire the potion put him under, a hand slid over his knee and Astoria purred, "Come on Draco, let's play with me tonight. I'll make it worthwhile...", she started kissing her way down from his neck over his naked chest to his pants while he sat still, watching Granger sway to the beat. Just when Astoria reached his button he growled at her to stop, " Don't make a fool out of you Greengrass. I don't feel the desire to have you in my presence today. So go off to fuck someone who truly wants you tonight."

She gasps, "But Drake we always hang out at our party's, what's gotten into you.. you know how much fun we've together. Let's just do the usual.. I want you and you know you love when I make you feel good." The Slytherin prince sneered, "don't be delusional, I don't love anything about, it was just some fun during these party's. Now, be on your way Tori, before I'm not as nice anymore.. I'm sure someone will be happy about your services tonight. I've more important matter to attend to."
He glanced back at the desired matter, she was laughing about something Nott was saying while they downed another shot. His hands on her lower back, something that made him so livid he didn't even register when Astoria left angrily.

Hermione will be his tonight, whatever it takes.
