A Game of Lies & Seduction

Hurricane

Ariella

She stretched her black paws as she woke from the small bed Viktor had for her in his room, one of the many ways he liked to demonstrate his dominance over her. She demonstrated her own defiance by remaining in her animagus form anytime he had forced her to stay with him. They had a deal, he helped to cure Astoria and then she was his, fully committed. She agreed she wouldn't touch anyone else so long as he didn't touch her, this way it held them both accountable for their promises since he had become quite possessive of her. It was how she had ended up sleeping with her bestfriend, in her refusal to let Viktor touch her, she hadn't accounted for still having needs and Viktor hadn't minded the loophole as long as he could watch them together. She loved Astoria, she had quite literally given up her own life to save hers, out of guilt Astoria had refused to leave her side, thus sharing her fate of being alone, of being Viktors.

“Here kitty-” One of Viktor's women called gently while rubbing her fingers together, Ariella hissed, loudly, making the girl retract her arm quickly and hide under the blankets, Viktor chuckled as she curled up again. A knock on the door had her leaping towards it and pacing until Viktor called out in answer, the door was opened a crack and she slipped out, bolting for her own room. She changed out of her animagus form as she hit the bathroom and threw the shower on, like a ritual she had needed to scrub her body raw after being stuck in the room with Viktor while he entertained. He liked to lock her up when he felt she was getting to personal with anyone, he had grown jealous of Mattheo this last week, probably because he had actually had her before. He would kill her if he ever found out about Enzo, she had hated herself for turning to him, everytime they were together it was a risk to Astoria. He wouldn't help find a cure for her if he had nothing to gain from it, Tori had pushed them together even more once Ari had confessed to Tori that she had slept with Enzo. It was how the three of them had started sharing eachother, a sense of security had formed between the three of them. He had been tasked to ensure her fidelity, funny how he was the one to break it. Once Enzo had started sleeping with both of them, the girls didn't find themselves needing each other as often. She hadn't missed the way Tori had lit up in her weakened state when Blaise had shown up for her, she smiled, she wanted that for Tori, wanted her to find happiness.

She stepped out of the shower wrapping a towel around herself, she went to the closet pulling on a black sweater and matching sweat pants, she pulled a pair of white socks on ran a brush through her wet hair. She walked to the dinning room where Astoria was waiting with a buffet of breakfast foods “I could kiss you” Ari muttered affectionately digging into breakfast. “Your okay?” She asked softly, Ari nodded “Fine, are you? Did you take your potion?” She nodded “I'm sorry Ari, I should have told you I was running out” Ariella put her breakfast down and walked over to her friend, “Why didn't you?” She asked gently, Tori shrugged “I hate what you have to do for me” She whispered regretfully. Ariella smiled and squeezed her shoulder “Literally haven't had to do anything yet-” she teased playfully making Tori laugh quietly. Enzo walked into the room, all business as usual, she hated that it bothered her, she couldn't afford to have feelings for anyone. “You have work tonight, were going to a club, be ready for ten-” Ari rolled her eyes and returned to breakfast, nice to see you too Enzo.

She had Tori triple barrel her hair while she did her makeup, contour, smokey eye and long thick lashes. She was standing in her bathroom in a black lingerie body suit, something about showing off her skin after being stuck in Viktors room got her excited. The bodysuit was a tank top, lace apart from the cups, she pulled a high waisted leather skirt with a slit up the thigh over top and paired the outfit with some black knee-high heeled boots. Having missed a week's worth of work Viktor was letting her go without him, the place was public enough and it wasn't The Marauders, Enzo would shoot to kill if anyone touched her. She pulled a black fur coat over the outfit, it swallowed her and made her feel like she was in her animagus form, powerful. She also didn't mind making a few jaws drop when she finally slipped out of it, Astoria had rallied Daphne and her friends to meet them, fuck working she was drinking tonight.
