The echo bounced off the damp stonewalls of the dungeons.
The murderous look on his face should have sent her running but her Gryffindor pride anchored her to the ground.
The silence was deafening. She just wished he would do something, anything. After what seemed like a lifetime he slowly advanced on her, his grey eyes narrowing and the corner of his lip curled into his signature smirk. Not wanting to submit she remained rooted to her spot, folding her arms and lifting her chin to hide the fear that was slowly bubbling inside.
He didn't stop and continued towards her until he walked right into her pushing her up against the cold wall behind. She quickly unfolded her arms to make a grab for her wand but he was too quick and had them pinned above her using a single hand. As the panic started to set in she tried pushing him off using her lower body but he easily stopped her by thrusting his hips into hers. She could feel the cold wall scratching at the exposed skin below her skirt. She wanted to tell him to let her go or shout for help but she couldn't breathe. She expected a reaction when she had hit him moments before but this, this she was not expecting. With his body pressed up tight against hers she was reminded that this was not the spineless little boy she had punched back in 3rd year. No this was a man, a very dangerous man.
He slid his free hand up her body starting at her exposed leg, over the dip at her waist then up to the curve of her breast. He continued to her face where he cupped her cheek in his palm. No longer able to hide her emotions her eyes glistened with tears that were yet to fall and her mouth parted letting go of the breath she had been holding. His thumb slowly slid over her bottom lip then up to her cheek where it stilled. Just as she was about to demand her freedom he leant in further so his lips were grazing her ear.
"Be careful Granger, I like it rough…" his voice heavy and the warmth of his breath had her leaning back into him. He grazed his teeth over her ear lobe then placed a quick firm kiss against her jaw before releasing her and disappearing off into the Dungeons.
With his body no longer against hers she slumped against the wall as her knees gave way. She told herself it was down to the fear and shock of what had happened but even she couldn't deny the rush she felt as his body pressed against her.
Looking back she would realise that this was the moment her life changed.
