Morning sunlight crept into the room, casting a warm glow on the entwined figures. Alastor's antlers, once a symbol of darkness, returned to their normal size.

Their bodies, still wrapped in each other's embrace, slowly stirred. Soft sighs and gentle stretches filled the air as they awakened from their passion-filled slumber.

Alastor's eyes, burning with love, gazed into y/n's.

"Forever mine," he whispered, his voice husky with emotion.

"Forever yours," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper.

Their lips met in a tender kiss, a soft caress that spoke volumes of their love.

Just as they were about to bask in the warmth of their love, a knock at the door broke the silence.

"Alastor, have you seen y/n?" Charlie's voice echoed from outside.

Alastor's gaze never left hers, his expression neutral.

"Not recently," he replied, his voice low.

Charlie's eyes narrowed slightly, suspicion flickering across his face. "Strange. She was last seen heading towards your chambers."

Y/n's presence was evident, nestled in Alastor's embrace, but he remained silent.

Charlie's gaze lingered, then he nodded. "Very well. If you see her, please let me know."

With that, he departed, leaving the entwined couple to their secrets.

Alastor's beloved smiled mischievously.

"You're quite the mysterious one," she whispered.

Alastor's lips curved into a sly smile. "Some secrets are worth keeping."
