Chapter One
"So here we are."
Hermione bit her peach tinted lip and stared at the table. This was a terrible idea. She glanced back up at the man in front of her as he sipped his wine waiting for her response. Here they were indeed. But it would have come down to this eventually. They'd been texting each other for two weeks now. Why did she think she could do this stupid matching anyway? That's what brought her here after all. The Hidden Desires app that had been whispered around the Wizarding Community for the past year. She was still amazed by how quickly technology had grown in the last six years since the war ended. But life had been good to her. She'd worked for the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures for a few years until she realized that fighting for magical creatures' rights was more debating and politics than research. Then she found herself doing what she always did. Research for Harry and Ron. She was now the head researcher for the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. She did the research and Harry and Ron ran off and did the missions. She was worried about it at first until the numbers came back and death/injury rates decreased by over 60% for the Aurors thanks to her department's success.
So like she said. Her life was good, on the job front, and her lovely flat in Diagon Alley was just her size, and she saw her friends for lunch every day, unless they were on missions, and spent one night a week with friends at Three Broomsticks and every Sunday at the Wesley's for dinner. Life was… routine. And that's why she was here. She was so fucking bored.
While the rest of her life was great she missed having a special someone in her life. Things with Ron ended quickly after the war. They barely made it three months before they both agreed the adrenaline of the War is what kept them from noticing they had nothing in common, especially, in the bedroom. It turned out Ron was very vanilla and she was, well, not. She hadn't tried a lot of things due to Ron being extremely nervous but she realized how badly she wanted to. And after a few random hookups over the years she realized she needed a partner who she could explore with and not feel embarrassed. She needed to do what she did best and research. Which brought her to the Hidden Desires App and well to Adam. The App was simple and she had Luna and Dean to thank for that. Dean used Muggle dating apps and Luna being the brilliant witch she was can up with the questionnaire. Everyone she knew had been on it at least once. Some used it for hookups others used it for long-term relationships. All you had to do was create an account, fill out an extremely detailed and embarrassing questionnaire and send you a matching profile. That's how she met Adam. They'd talked the whole night on the site before he got frustrated on how slow the connection was and asked to text her. The conversation had been lovely and she knew she could block his number if she needed to so she agreed. One week later they were texting each other practically 24/7 and a week after that they were here at this fancy hotel bar and she couldn't get her lips to move.
"You ok over there? You're a bit more talkative on the phone then you are, well, now" He said with a chuckle as he finished his glass and pushed hers a bit closer to her.
She sighed and took a sip to try to calm her nerves.
"You know", He said softly causing her to glance up at him again, "I kinda figured that at this point of the night I'd already have you bent over the desk in a room with how our conversations go."
She turned crimson and sputtered before she hissed her response "tonight was supposed to be a discussion not a quickie in a hotel."
"There's My Mia"
She blushed at the name. Of course. He was goading her. And she honestly felt better now. Her shoulders relaxed and she laughed at him and rolled her eyes. Mia. When they first started talking she'd admitted to him she wouldn't use her real name and would use charms to hide her identity when they first met. She admitted she was nervous and he didn't mind. He said he'd do the same and called himself Adam. She said she'd call herself Aubrey to which he immediately rejected.
"If this goes the way I hope and you end up in my bed? There's no way I can groan out the name Aubrey with a straight face. How about Mia? "
She'd laughed and agreed. Aubrey really was a mouthful and Mia could basically be a nickname for her so it worked. Then they discussed when they would meet to discuss their terms. They'd both had a similar interest in BDSM and knew that before you begin anything you have to sit down and discuss how far and how much you'd like to do.
"Are you feeling better now?" He said with a smirk. Godric either he was great at charms or he truly was that attractive. It was his idea to charm their looks based on what they were hoping to see in their partner. He'd admitted to a slight obsession with curly brunettes with Chocolate eyes which caused her to blush. This app was clearly perfect to have her be his match. Tonight it took all of her strength not to drool when she first saw him. He had curly brown hair that stops right at the nape of his neck that seems to match his sharp cheekbones with just a smidge of a beard and mustache that made her heart melt. That and those chocolate eyes she could get lost in. If her eyes looked like that she'd probably had an easier time dating in school.
She admitted she didn't have an ideal partner so he told her to use an old fantasy. She was embarrassed to admit she was here now with a mid-back straight blonde with more of an oval face and sharper nose than usual. When she realized she was struggling to get that silver eyes color just right, she panicked and her eyes green and added a flush of freckles across her nose and cheeks for good measure. Everyone knew what the Malfoys looked like and she didn't want that deep dark fantasy to be obvious.
"Yes, thank you. So, how was your day?" She said with a soft smile. He smirked again and called the waitress for a refill before looking back at her while she finished her glass.
"Work was work. I have a pretty boring desk job honestly. I just move galleons back and forth."
" Clearly quite a bit of galleons according to your phone, and shoes, and watch-"
"Alright, I get paid well." He said with a laugh, "But that's not why we're here." He took a quick glance down at her from the top of her blonde head down her sweetheart neckline green satin dress that stopped right at her thigh and continued down to her Black fuck-me pumps.
" So I see you like blondes."
"Animinity Adam. And I told you it's just an old fantasy"
"Clearly strong enough in your mind for you to use it tonight Mia." He said with a chuckle. "But on to business. What do you want your safe words to be?"
She blushed again and looked down.
"C'mon Mia you were doing so well. Don't get shy on my now beautiful."
"I know I know sorry. I just never had to use them before."
He looked at her surprised "But you have-"
"Yes! Oh, I know how that sounds. I'm not a virgin, just still new at this." She mumbled before taking another sip.
"O.k Let's keep it simple then. Yellow tells me you're ok just slow down a bit and red tell me to stop yeah?"
"And what about nonverbal?"
The dark chuckle he responded with caused a shiver to ripple through her and settle right at her core.
"I don't think we're there yet love. We'll talk about it next time. For now, ``he said, slipping the total for their drinks and a rather large tip on the table, "Let's go somewhere more private to continue hm?" He held her hand out to her and she could do nothing but grasped it as he pulled her closer and guided her to the elevator.
"You really did get a room," She said looking around the Business-class room. He may have gone a bit overboard for a meet and greet but he always gets the best even if it would only be for an hour. The room was nice but he'd stayed in better. It was decorated in greys and creams with a large queen size bed right in the middle. Off to the side was a balcony that overlooked muggle London with a little breakfast table. He really got the room for the view and when he did finally have this witch in a bed it would be a king-size with a much higher sheet count.
"Just to talk Mia I promise. I wanted us to have some privacy that's all." He said with a chuckle. He knew it was all charms but there was no denying that figure of hers and damn she was perfect. Perfect height, she stopped right below his chin. Perfect fit, when he was guiding her to the elevator he was able to slide his arm around her and she fit next to him like she was made to be there. And that laugh of hers? Fuck. Every time she did it he felt it go straight to his-
"Do you want to sit outside?" She said looking at him with a smile.
"That was the plan. Maybe room service. You hungry?" He said with a smirk. Get it together Malfoy you'll have her soon.
"I already ate. Wanted to stay focused" She chuckled again and opened up the balcony waving him over.
He watched her start scribbling on a legal notepad that came from who knows where and a pen as he went to take the seat across from her.
"So, as from our previous discussions-"
"Sexting"
"What?" She looked startled and blushed scarlet. He loved doing that to her.
"Sexting Mia. For the past two weeks, you and I have been sexting and role-playing via our phones of all the filthy things we want to do with each other. You and I are here to solidify that" He said reaching over and stroking her arm. She was so damn nervous. He needed her to relax for this to work. For him to ask for what he wanted.
"Right." She took a deep breath and started scribbling again which gave him a chance to really think.
Life had finally calmed down for him after the War. He was honestly just grateful not to be in Azkaban and that really was all thanks to the Granger and Potter. They vouched for him and his mom and after good ol' Dad was locked away for life, He got his inheritance, burned the manor to the ground. He'd rebuilt it and his mother was living happily in a new wing made just for her. Then he took his time and completely redid the family business. It was all legal now and confirmed multiple times, through his request, by the MLE. He knew no one really trusted him and the world needed time but after a few donations, the Ministry seemed surprisingly lenient. It probably helped that he was so cooperative and had somehow become… acquaintances with Potter.
He wouldn't call it a friendship but since he was the only one willing to come by twice a year and inspect Malfoy industries, it was difficult to just ignore him and the boy who lived didn't "do" ignore. After two years of having a drink after he was done just made sense. Then it kind of became a monthly thing. Occasionally a Weasley or two would show up and Longbottom once or twice. Then his own friends started coming and now hear they were six years after the War. Acquaintances. And now after everything had finally calmed down he decided he needed to do more than the occasional hook up in a muggle bar but he needed a witch who wouldn't mind his one vice. And who over time would see him for him instead of a Death Eater. He'd been on Hidden Desires for a few months now just searching for a woman who he could connect with because there was no way in Merlin he could do Vanilla sex for the rest of his life. He wasn't even sure at first if a woman would be ok with using charms until they got to know each other better until he met Mia. So far she had been perfect and the sexting had been incredible for getting him through quite a few lonely nights. Now he just needed it to physically be compatible before he asked her. He looked at her when he saw her sigh and put down the pen. She had a long list. Of course, she did. Talking to her the past two weeks made him realize that she was a bit controlling and in need of order. It explained why she loved it when he controlled her in return.
"That's quite a list Mia."
"I know," She said with a blush, " I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything."
He grabbed the notepad from her and glanced through it. They'd tried quite a few of these through their texting and phone roleplays. Spanking, Dirty talk (she seemed to love that), choking, hair pulling, role-playing (of course it's what he was really hoping for), the list went on down the page.
"This is a bit ambitious, don't you think? I mean I wouldn't mind but it's quite a marathon you're going for." He said with a laugh.
"What do you mean?"
"You want to do this all in one night?" He said with a raised eyebrow. He had to stifle his laugh when he watched her face flush and the blush go down her next and across her chest. He was curious about how far that blush went.
"Oh no I thought-"
"I know what you thought baby and that's a bit of the problem right? You need someone else to do the thinking. You overthink. Just relax. I'm fine with everything on this list. Let's start slow yeah? You're quite a fan of dirty talk and I'm very curious to try the spanking aspect on you. Maybe later we'll go into handcuffs?" He looked up and he saw her nod.
"Alright looks like we got a plan"
"What about you?" she asked, biting her lip.
"Hm?"
"What do you want to try Adam?"
Adam. Sometimes he forgot they used fake names. It's why he tried to use pet names with her. He couldn't use his name without it being obvious.
"I've been doing the BDSM thing for a bit so I've tried pretty much all of it", He said with a shrug, "there's one thing I do want to try but not yet."
"Why not?"
"I just don't think we're there yet. But when I think we're ready, I'll let you know and you just tell me if you're uncomfortable alright?"
"Yellow or Red," She said with a smirk and he chuckled and in his mind, he hoped this would work. She just seemed so perfect. He just hoped he was right.
