The Key to a Riddle's Heart (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 33 - The Followers

Currently, I was in the Slytherin common room, relaxing with Tom's friends. Abraxas, Sebastian, and Arcturus had been keeping me company multiple times throughout the week. We had become quite close and it was interesting to see them act as if I were a Slytherin instead of a Gryffindor.

Abraxas and Dorea had split a few days ago because Dorea caught Abraxas sleeping with Sarah Waldorf. Dorea hadn't been too upset about it, in fact, she had already moved on. I had caught her and Charlus flirting on multiple occasions. When they noticed my presence, it would stop. Abraxas wasn't torn up about the split at all, he told me he only slept with her because she was a good lay.

"Dahl, meet the Carrows." Arcturus' voice snapped me out of my thoughts. My gaze followed his and I noticed a set of twins looking at me curiously. The girl scowled at me whereas the boy glanced up and down my body. Sebastian noticed and made a comment to the boy about not 'tapping' that.

"Dahlia Key. Pleasure," I said politely, holding my hand out for each of them to shake. The boy stepped forward immediately and grabbed my hand and brought it up to his lips, winking at me.

"Amycus Carrow. The pleasure is all mine." He held onto my hand for an awkwardly long period of time and eventually let go once his twin introduced herself.

"Alecto Carrow. What the hell is a Gryffindor doing in the Slytherin common room?" She scowled at me before asking the boys.

"You don't deserve an answer, Alecto." Tom's voice sounded from behind me, causing a smirk to appear on my face. Alecto looked at me with a confused glance but put her head down in shame.

"As for you, Amycus," Tom spoke with distaste clear in his voice, "Stop eyeing my girlfriend as if she's a piece of meat."

Amycus' and Alecto's eyes snapped to me with disbelief before looking at the other boys in the room.

"My Lord-" Alecto began to say but was cut off by Tom.

"Don't call me that inside these walls! How many times do I have to tell you?" Tom shouted at the group, excluding me. What was he on about? Why did she just call Tom 'her lord'?

"Sorry, Tom."

I shrugged off the fact that Alecto called Tom the strange name and turned around to face Tom. He was glaring at the group of Slytherins who were shrinking under his gaze. My hands wrapped around his neck as he glanced down at me. Tom's gaze softened and the corner of his mouth twitched as our eyes locked.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed the group dispersing as they felt awkward in the current situation. The Carrow's watched me the entire time as they left but I shook their gaze off and relocked eyes with Tom. Once he realized the entire common room was cleared, I felt myself being placed underneathe him on one of the couches. A smirk fell over his face as a shocked expression fell over mine.

"I've been waiting to do this all day," Tom spoke before lowering his head so his lips were on mine. I eagerly kissed him back and felt one of his hands slide up my shirt and the other was placed on my inner thigh.

"Tom," I moaned his name as he sucked on the base of my neck. He smirked and glanced up at me mischievously before continuing doing wonders with his mouth. I arched my back off of the couch to help decrease the space between us and wrapped one leg around his waist. A grunt escaped Tom and I brought his face back up to mine, pulling him into a kiss.

We snogged for quite a while before we were interrupted by some fourth years. The girls glared at me while the boys smirked. They knew what we were up to but I didn't care. Tom had parted from me and was working on fixing the buttons of his shirt that had popped open due to my wandering hands. I realized that my shirt was opened up as well and the buttons were gone. My bra was exposed and the cold air nipped at my bare skin. That's why the boys were smirking.
