Weakness For Temptation
He is weak. It is the only conclusion he can come to as she writhes in pleasure beneath him, wild hair only matched by wild eyes as she rakes her nails down his back. He shouldn't be doing this he knows, and yet, he cannon resist her allure, no matter how hard he tries.
She is everything he shouldn't want.
She is everything his wife is not.
Wild. Passionate. Undisciplined. Exciting.
He watches her when he shouldn't. She knows and she loves the power she wields over him. She knows and he knows that she is his weakness and she has no problem exploiting the knowledge.
And then she is gone. In Azkaban, because she was stupid enough to wear her heart and her loyalty on her sleeve like a bloody Gryffindor.
If he feels like there is something missing in his life, he ignores it, replacing it with the enjoyment of the freedom he could have easily been denied.
And if, when the time comes, he is more excited about the Azkaban raid than he should be, he tells himself it is not about her. One glance, and his pretence, no matter that it was only in his own head, is over.
His eyes met hers and he knew that despite the insanity that had clearly grown since the last time he saw her, she still knows the power she holds and it has not diminished in the slightest. The look she gives him tells him that she will once more enjoy proving her dominance over him.
He barely lasts a month.
She demands his presence, and he gives in to her because she is a temptation he cannot deny himself.
Lucius will never be bested by anything but his own weakness and her name is Bellatrix.
