Post Mortem

Chapter 17

A/N: *parseltongue*

HENRDIX’S POV

I was lounging in the library, enjoying a quiet morning for once. Tom was off doing who knows what and Sirius was right there with him. I hummed to myself as I read my book, smiling to myself all too happy with my day of quiet, I couldn’t help but to hope that it would stay that way.

I wasn’t that lucky however, all my hopes and dreams for the day were smashed when Tom came banging into the room, “Hello my dearest, get up and get ready we are going to a ball tonight, we were cordially invited by our fellow purebloods,” he said as he floated me off the sofa and dropped me onto the ground, I glared at him, “Technically neither of us are purebloods,” I grumbled as I hoisted myself up and onto my feet, “True. Now Nifty is waiting for you in your chambers, I’ve already picked out your robe and we’ve agreed on a hairstyle that would look marvelous on you. We were debating if we should go with a little bit of makeup considering that you are the submissive one in this relationship,” he shrugged.

I raised my brow at him, I flicked my finger at him, sending him flying across the room, landing him on his knees in front of me, “Submissive my ass,” I smiled. He stared up at me for a moment before standing up, he towered over me, “Doesn’t feel good to be accoid across the damn room does it,” and with that I went to leave the room, I didn’t get far however. For the second time in my life I was accoid across the goddamn room, I landed firmly in his arms. He glared down at me and I felt something in me stir, I pushed it down and swallowed, he leaned in close to my ear and whispered, “Be a good little imp and behave. Now let’s go get ready *dear*.”

I felt the same stirring, this time it was much too difficult to push down, I still didn’t act on it. Instead I shoved myself out of his arms and practically ran away. I heard laughter from behind me as I frantically walked towards my room to get ready for the damn ball.

THORSTAN’S POV

I watched as he left, I tried to calm myself. I felt a feeling, it was mixed with rage and something foreign that I wasn’t quite familiar with. I swallowed trying to keep down my urges, the urge to summon Hendrix back to me, the urge to do unspeakable things to him, things that I haven’t done in a long while. I felt my breathing become ragged, and I couldn’t help it. I went storming after him, I knew exactly where I was going. I stopped in front of his room, I had to force myself to calm down a bit more before I opened the door.

I took a deep breath and opened the door. When I looked in I felt all my self restraint snap. I clenched my jaw to stop myself from doing anything irrational. Hendrix was only wearing his trousers, his body was glorious, though something disturbed me, something that filled me with rage, on his glorious body was all sorts of scars. I felt my breath become ragged again. “What do you want Tom,” he practically growled. “Call me what I prefer please,” I breathed.

I was trying my damn hardest not to do anything stupid. “Master Thorstan needs to be leaving. Master Hendrix needs to be getting ready withouts you,” Nifty said as she popped up in front of me, she shoved at my knees removing me from the room. I sent a silent thank you to the gods for saving me from myself.

I sat in the library waiting with Sirius, “You look frustrated… sexually frustrated,” he waggled his eyebrows at me suggestively. “I don’t know what you mean,” I sighed as I rested my chin on my hands, “Holy shit you’re actually sexually frustrated,” he laughed. I glared at him, “Mind your own damn business dog,” I practically growled. This only made him laugh more, “Oh Merlin this is hilarious, you’re not shagging Hendrix,” he cackled.

I blasted him off the couch which only made him laugh harder, “Merlin this is now my favorite day,” he wheezed. I clenched my jaw as I stood, “I’m going to go get my husband,” I growled as I stormed out of the room. I made my way back to Hendrix’s room, I gently knocked before walking in, and there he was. I felt that urge again.

He looked magnificent, he was wearing the wonderful dress robes I had picked up for him, they were a deep emerald green, so dark in color that it was almost black, it made his eyes glisten. He wore the Peverell crest proudly upon his chest and the LeFay ring was on his finger. I swallowed as he walked towards me, seemingly holding all of the grace in the world. He was absolutely beautiful. I swallowed as I held my arm out to him, he took it with a glance and a roll of his eyes.

“You look marvelous,” I breathed as I led him down stairs to the library, “You have good taste,” he sighed as he gently smiled. We walked into the library where Sirius was waiting with a wolfish smile, “I thought you would take a bit longer… really Hendrix abstaining from your own husband is just cruel,” he cackled as he apparated away. Hendrix tightened his grip on my arm, “Let’s go,” he grunted. I nodded right before we apparated. I gently turned his head to look up at me and gently kissed him chastely, I promptly apparated away.

When we arrived Hendrix looked shocked, I greeted the lady and lord of the house, introducing Hendrix and I. I then promptly led us to the dance floor with a large grin upon my face.

A/N: Sorry for the short chapter I'll be making it up in the next one don't worry, I just felt like everything that I wanted to happen couldn't fit into one chapter.
