Harry finally exited the shower, now dressed in a great set of dress robes and with a new cologne he had procured from France to surprise Elaine with for their night in… but she wasn't in their bedroom any longer.

He looked around, first in the direction of their large, walk-in closet and then around the room as a whole. At first, he thought she could have been playing with him, she enjoyed surprising him or jumping out at him and getting a quick snog, she loved it, really, but truth be told she simply wasn't in their bedroom any longer. He looked under the bed in the event that she had gone crazy… crazier, but she hadn't. Obviously, the next step was their bed with the dozen pillows it had on it, and finally, he found himself a clue; a letter.

Typically, he would be cautious when coming across a random sealed letter, especially if it were randomly placed on the side of the bed that he slept on. Still, considering they were well-established in their relationship by now, he decided against that. Harry simply opened the letter and saw what Elaine had written for him.

'Hi'

"Boo!"

He jumped and dove across the bed, his feet being grabbed at by two hands but narrowly avoiding them, and when he was safely across, he turned to see the mysterious assailant. It was Elaine, and she was dressed very strangely and not at all fashionable as was usual of her even on her worst days.

"What… are you wearing a costume?" Harry asked, blinking as he took in her tall, pointed hat and the large, flowing robes she was wearing. For some reason, she even had a Quidditch broom in her left hand and a wand in her right, though neither seemed real, strangely enough.

Elaine smiled and gestured down her body, doing a little wiggling when his eyes fell on her rear in the midst of a twirl. "I've gone shopping, as you can see. I'm what the Muggles assume we witches look like — it's very curious, isn't it?"

Harry blinked at her, unimpressed with her choice of costume. "You're going as a witch for Halloween?"

"You would be correct, I'd be worried if you weren't," Elaine responded, her hands falling to her hips and that confident near-cocky smile still on her face.

"That's a bit on the nose do— actually, you know what, sure, you're a witch for Halloween," Harry clapped his hands together and motioned to the door that would eventually lead them down to their parlour room, where the two had decided to Floo out of and to a very special hybrid inn; the first of its kind. "We should get going, don't you think?"

"No need, I've pushed our reservation back a day and decided on something very unusual for you," Elaine grinned, her eyes practically as dark as the night sky as she stalked towards him. "I thought a game was in order to keep with the 'spooky' setting the Muggles like to give this season, and as such, I saw it fit to invite a couple of our friends over to aid me in seeing to this. Would you like to know the rules, or should I send you out unprepared? I dare say that you'll lose either way, it simply depends on how much fun you'd like to have with my monstrous pets, I'm being very generous tonight."

I don't like the sound of any of this… but what the hell, I'll play along. She's already moved the reservations back anyhow.

He shrugged. "Sure, let's play your game. What do we have and what are the monsters that I have to deal with?"

Elaine grinned at him and walked closer, running one hand down his side until she pinched his rear with a giggle. "I'm going to give you ten minutes to hide away from me, I'll not cheat either, so don't you worry your handsome little self," she moved closer and, in typically crazy fashion, licked his neck before pulling back to continue speaking as if nothing had happened. "If I find you before midnight — that's two hours and twenty-six minutes from now, darling — then I get any one single wish from you that I might like, and should you win, the same will be offered by me. Magic is fine, and I won't use the obvious and instant victory spells. That wouldn't be very sporting."

"Alright. I basically do whatever you want and you do most of what I want anyhow, but let's play… you still haven't said what the monsters are though," Harry looked closely at Elaine in the hopes of her giving herself up, but really, he should have known better.

"There's only two, and you'll know them when you see them," Elaine stood up, and kissed him roughly, her teeth biting and pulling incessantly at his lower lip as a breathy moan graced his ears, and then she pushed him towards the door with a dark, dark smile. "Better run, my love. I'll have you soon."

Run, he did.


As Harry ran through the darkened home of theirs, he noticed that a great many of the rooms seemed to have been tampered with to some degree. Now, he wasn't saying that she had stolen anything, but rather, that she had moved the furniture or items around strategically. Where once there had been a plethora of hiding places, now, the vast majority were obvious and if he moved the objects, she would know; Elaine had cheated.

He should have known better with it being her.

Squeak.

Harry put a hand on his heart as if that would do anything at the sudden noise, and then he looked up, seeing a small bat that almost looked to be grinning at him… if it hadn't been for those two sharp teeth. When it saw that it noticed him, it squeaked again and flew at a near imperceivable speed towards an open hatch in the ceiling. The third floor was never opened for them, it was an attic filled with far too many old belongings… but he was tempted. Elaine's game didn't matter, but a potential bat infestation, well that could be damaging and dangerous if they all had teeth as large as that one did. So, he followed up after the thing, squinting his eyes at the darkness and nearly tripping when he saw it resting on a window ledge, the moonlight illuminating the bat and him when he drew closer to it.

All too suddenly, when his eyes looked into the bats' eyes and nought but a second passed, the creature was no longer there. In its place was a slender, pale, dark-haired and very familiar, beautiful woman.

"Hi, Harry," Corene greeted in that soft voice of hers, the corners of her lips raised ever-so-slightly, indicating that she was happy. "You're looking to hide from Elaine, aren't you?"

"Yeah. She's got it in her that we should play a Halloween game, and Merlin only knows where she came up with it, but I guess here I am, allowing it to happen. What about you? What're you doing here?" Harry asked as he moved closer, his stealth and nervousness about the bat now gone… wait. "Where'd the bat go? I feel like I blinked and it vanished."

Corene cocked her head at him. "Inattentive," she remarked before she practically appeared right before him, her lithe figure covering the ten or so feet in the time it took him to blink. "Elaine explained that monsters were present within your home. Correct?"

Harry shrugged and eventually nodded. "Yeah, she did. I don't think they're dangerous, she's probably just playing tricks on me or one of them was that bat, small as it was, those fangs looked brutal — seriously, where'd it go? You had to have seen it."

"Cute," Corene remarked with a more genuine smile as she leaned in and stood on the tips of her toes, her nose, pale as the rest of her, sniffed the base of his neck and in doing so, she did this small, happy wiggle with a mewling-like noise coming out of her. "Hungry."

"I can get sna— Woah now, you know Elaine wouldn't like this, Corene," Harry had started with mentions of the kitchen being made, but he stopped and tried to de-escalate the situation when Corene climbed him, her legs settling around his waist as she began to lick and nibble at the right side of his neck.

Harry tried to pry her off him gently, but he couldn't so much as make her budge, and at that, he heard a small, girlish giggle from her. "Hungry," she said again, this time in a tone that sounded deeper and legitimately hungry. "Your bat is in the mirror behind you, Harry, but your monster won't show."

With one hand holding onto her, the other went for his wand as he turned to look at the mirror, but it was broken. All he saw in it was himself. No bat, and no… no…

"Corene!" Harry exclaimed, and it was at that point, he felt her kisses and nibbles give way to a bite.

He tried to shake her off; he failed.

He pried at her, but with one hand, she stopped all of those efforts, and she drank from him.

Finally, she pulled back to look at him, her lips covered in his blood and that same 'gentle' smile on her face. "Tasty. You're very pleasant — kiss me."

Harry tried to say no, he truly did, but he leaned in and pressed his lips against Corene's. There was a coppery taste, his blood, and those lips of hers were as soft as they were cold, but before he could contemplate his issue any longer, he was wrenched away from her by two very large, strong hands, and then his vision went dark as Corene let loose a hiss.


When Harry woke up, he found himself with great pressure on his lower body. It felt as if it were a person sitting on him, but one that was wearing a great and large fur-covered suit. Truly, it felt indescribably soft… but also very jarring, and as he mentioned before, heavy.

"Elaine?" He asked into the darkness, his eyes finally opening to reveal a room the likes of which he couldn't see into.

"Try again!" Came the voice of a person he hadn't seen in quite some time, but one that he would never forget on account of the constant ribbing; Druella, Aster's big sister.

He blinked with a forced blank expression on his face, the feeling of pleasure still vaguely coursing through him from when… wait, Corene really had bitten him. Then she had told him to kiss her, and he had just about been ready to do that. Merlin, today had been strange. Elaine would be very cross when she found out.

"Druella," he started after hoping that she had somehow seen his expression. "First — let me up and light a torch, please. After you do that, could you please get your dog or fifty-kilo jacket off of me? I don't know what in Merlin's name it is, but it's starting to make me sweat and I'd like to get the usage of my legs back."

"Oh~," Druella's voice sang to him as he felt the pressure increase and a heavy, wet tongue swipe across his neck on the opposite side in which Corene had kissed; it felt canine, heavy with saliva and none too pleasant in comparison. "She was right. Tasty. Your sweat is really salty! I had to steal you away from her before she could have all of the fun though, that wouldn't be fair, and besides, it's not like I eat you like she does."

Harry blinked, and he made to speak, but he paused when the torches started burning and he saw what was now seated on his lower body and stretched across his upper body. It was Druella, alright, but not the version of her that he had ever known. This 'Druella' was taller, more muscular, and covered in fine fur. Her face was human-like, but she had these large canine ears, that same fur on the top of her head, larger eyes and a huge tongue sitting out of the corner of her mouth and… Merlin, she had canine teeth.

"I don't know what Elaine gave me today, but I'll be having words with her for it. I'm seeing things, aren't I?" He asked, his eyes widening almost comically when he looked further down to see what had caught his attention.

It was a tail. Druella had somehow grown a large, dog-like tail that was swaying back and forth rapidly. In all fairness, it seemed to match her playful and friendly attitude. Well, it would if she were really a dog and this was really Druella. He doubted either option rang true.

"Nope!" Druella responded jovially, her tongue sweeping downwards and hitting a similar spot. "Morgana, you're really really sweet. I dunno what you eat, but I think I'm just about ready to gobble you up. That's fine, right? Please? I bet Elaine wouldn't mind if I cleaned you up nice and good for her."

Before Harry could say anything, Druella's face was on his and she was snogging him harder than he had ever been snogged before. Each of her arms pinned down one of his, preventing him from moving and her weight atop of him felt ten times greater than it had any right to. That long tongue of hers quickly broke through his lips too, and try as he might, he actually found himself getting as into this kiss as he had with Corene.

There was a quick and sudden tug at the bottom of his pants too, alerting him to the control that she had over her tail. It was moving so quickly that it felt as if it were vibrating, and that wasn't to mention the greatest detail of all. Druella was letting out these whine-like noises since their kiss had started, and when his hands found purchase on her hips, they turned lou—

Harry was summoned through the air and out from under the dog, wolf or whatever Druella was. There were two hands on his left arm, and one on his right.

"Found you, darling," Elaine said with a grin on her face.

When he turned from Elaine on his right and with her wand out, she looked directly into the most captivating pair of eyes he had ever seen even if they weren't remotely new to him. Corene smiled when she saw him look at her, it was as wide a smile as she would ever give, but it made her look as beautiful as any Goddess ever could.

"Hungry," Corene said to him, swiping her delicate tongue across her pink lips.

Merlin, Harry thought as he swallowed the saliva that had begun to pool in his mouth. Please, see me through this night.

Unfortunately for him, it hadn't even started yet.
