Interlude in the House of Dominion
"Severus?"
"Yes?"
"Could you pass me that Belladonna?"
"No."
"Severus?"
"Yes?"
" .... Pass me that Belladonna."
"Why?"
"Because I fucking said so, you irritable twat!"
Another, Completely Irrelevant Interlude in the House of Dominion
"But I'm in pain!"
Oh, for heaven's sake, Lucius sighed mentally. "That's why you need to take this potion and sleep."
"I don't wanna," Draco whined, banging his fists on the bed like a creature half his age. "Tell me a story, instead."
Lucius ground his teeth out of sheer exasperation. Surely no one would mind if he knocked his son and heir unconscious for a few sweet, precious, peaceful minutes.
Deflating, he sat on the bed. "Then will you sleep?"
Draco snuggled closer, resting his head on his father's thigh. "Maybe."
"Once upon a time a dark prince started gathering -- What the hell was THAT?"
"Oh, nothing," Draco murmured. "Mmm, you smell nice."
Lucius levitated his hand above Draco's head, about to remove the offending protrusion that was digging into his groin in an entirely disturbing manner. "Draco?"
"Yes, father?" the child blinked up at him innocently. How he could leer at the same time was beyond him. He really should push the boy away.
Then again, this demon spawn of his was very comely in a fragile, feminine, come-hither-and-fuck-me-silly kind of way. Very comely, indeed...
