Chapter Three

Dear Lucius,

I can't wait for you to get home.  Your son has learned a few new tricks I'm sure he can't wait to show you.  I hope you weren't emotionally attached to the dog, he's now a footstool and I certainly can't change him back.  Be safe my darling.

I love you,

Mari

Things quieted down for a while in the shop, Fred was working on improving an idea he had and George was researching where to find the ingredients they needed.  Mari worked on an advertising campaign they were considering.  Lucius lurked.  When she had reason to be near him for any reason Lucius took advantage by brushing against her, or if no one else was around he would caress her, stroking either her behind or a breast, whatever was close to him.  While she allowed him to touch her, she never acknowledged him.

Until the day they were alone in the shop, Mari was in the office early, catching up on paperwork when Lucius found her.  "Morning," he said.

Mari looked up from the file cabinet where she was looking for the paperwork she needed, "Yes, it is.  Something you need Mr. Malfoy?" she asked as she turned back to the contents of the file drawer.

Lucius stepped up close behind her, sliding his arms around her he grasped her breasts, squeezing.  "You know what I want," he slowly massaged her breasts, gently pinching her nipples to arousal. 

"Well, we don't always get what we want, now do we?" She slammed the drawer shut.

Lucius took advantage of the flat surface by pushing her against it, trapping her between his body and the filing cabinet, his hands never stopping their erotic massage.  "You want it as well, why fight it?"  He pulled her sweater up, quickly covering the bare skin of her breasts with his hands.

"I'm not here to service you," her breathing becoming uneven as she felt his arousal pressing against her bottom.

Lucius spun her around so she was facing him, his eyes focused on her bared breasts as he slowly rolled her nipples between his fingers. As Mari raised her hands to his shoulders to push him away from her he met her gaze and said, "You know you are going to give in, why fight me?"

Unable to budge him even an inch Mari sighed, "Because I don't want to do this."

Lucius looked into her eyes and finding the desire that he knew would be there, he smirked and lowered his lips to her straining nipple, licking around the point and sucking it into his mouth.  Mari moaned softly; his mouth felt so good on her.  She arched her back pushing her breast further into his mouth. 

Lucius pulled his lips away from her with a small popping sound, looking at her with lust clouded eyes he pushed down on her shoulders, hard, forcing her to her knees and pressed his groin into her face. Mari rubbed her face into his crotch, feeling him swelling against her cheek; she turned and bit him, hard enough for him to feel the edges of her teeth against him through the material of his clothes.  When he twitched up against her she bit harder, making him groan and grind against her mouth.  She reached up and unfastened his belt with shaking hands barely managing to free him, before he pushed deep into her throat.  Lucius grabbed her head and held on to her, thrusting into her eager mouth.  The harder she sucked the faster he thrust quickly bringing him to an orgasm that bent him double over her with its force.

Before she had even completely swallowed, he was straightening up and pulling out of her mouth.  He tucked himself away and readjusted his clothing before reaching down a hand to help Mari to her feet.  Speechless at the gesture, she grasped his hand allowing him to pull her up, and as he pushed her back against the file cabinet she slid her arms around him.  Lucius looked down seeing a rush of emotions flicker across her upturned face.  Mari was surprised when he gently kissed her, barely brushing his lips against hers.  She tried to deepen the kiss but he moved away from her and with a final caress to her breast he walked out of the room.

Though she was so aroused she was shaking, Mari would not give in and follow him.  She quietly closed the door and after pulling down her sweater and blotting the sweat from her face, she sat at the desk and pretended to be working.

Mari tried to continue working as if nothing had happened, but it was almost impossible to ignore the need for release.  As she went about her usual routine of stocking shelves and taking care of customers Lucius kept a discrete eye on her, never missing an opportunity to slide up next to her and caress whatever part of her body presented itself to him.  She was in the storage room on the ladder reaching for a box on the uppermost shelf when he came up behind her.  As her behind was at shoulder height it was very easy for him to slip his hand up under her skirt and stroke the bare skin of her upper thigh above her stockings.  As his fingers climbed higher he gently brushed against the material of her panties, and feeling the dampness there, he bent his head to bite the soft skin at the back of her knee.  Mari lost her balance and fell backwards from the ladder, if he hadn't caught her she surely would have broken something, as it was they ended up in a jumble of arms and legs on the floor.

"Jesus, Lucius," she gasped as she tried to untangle herself from him, "are you out of your mind?  You could have killed me!"  She stopped to catch her breath, "or was that the plan?   Make it look like an accident and get rid of the offensive little Muggle?"

Malfoy stood and straightened his clothing before replying, "Why would I want to kill you, I'm not finished with you yet."

Mari looked up at him towering over her and as she tried to pull her skirt back into place she muttered, "Well, I just might be finished with you." 

"I highly doubt that."

"I'm only giving so much with nothing in return before I write you off as a lost cause," she said as she regained her feet.

"Did I not just 'give' you something?"

"Sneaking up and groping me is not giving me something.  The way I see it you owe me two orgasms."

"I owe you nothing.  You chose to service me.  There was no bargaining involved," was his icy reply.

"Was I supposed to negotiate repayment before or after you pushed me to my knees and shoved yourself in my mouth?"

"I seem to recall that you were quite eager to get me into your mouth this morning.  I didn't do anything."

"That's the problem, you're not doing anything!"  She turned away from and walked to the door.  "Not that I really need you to, I can take care of myself if I have to."

"Really?"  He gave her an appraising look, "May I watch while you do?"

"Oh no, no watching unless you intend to help,  besides  knowing that you want to watch gives me an edge against you.  I can manage quite well on my own, we Muggles have very interesting toys to help us, thanks anyway," she threw back over her shoulder as she walked out.

'Toys,' he thought, 'this is getting good.'

After putting up with all the aggravation at work Mari only wanted to soak in a hot bath when she got home.  Unfortunately, the hot water sliding against her skin only further aroused her, so she got out of the tub went in search of the toy she had mentioned to Lucius.  When she finally found it buried in the bottom of her dresser, where she had put it months ago, she pleasured herself thinking of Lucius.  While it wasn't as good as having a warm body there with her, it served its purpose and she relaxed enough to sleep.

The next morning Lucius was awaiting her arrival at the shop, "My don't you look calm and relaxed this morning," he purred at her, "you must have gotten plenty of sleep last night."

"My sleeping habits are none of your business," Mari said as she attempted to pass him.

"I am only concerned about your welfare; we wouldn't want you getting sick now would we?" He stepped in front of her blocking the entrance to her office. Lowering his voice so only she could hear he added, "Tell me, did you think of me while you were playing with your toys?"

Mari felt her face redden and tried to turn away from him but Lucius put his hands on her shoulders and turned her to face him, "What's the matter?  Did you think I wouldn't notice how all yesterday's tension has disappeared?"

Mari looked into his smirking face and coldly replied, "Mr. Malfoy, whether I am tense or not is also none of your business.  Now please let me go."

Lucius slid his hands from her shoulders to her neck, squeezing gently before sliding them up under her hair to grasp her head, "It is my business when I am the cause of that tension," he murmured as he slowly bent to kiss her lips. 

Mari's arms slid around him almost of their own volition as she pressed up against him leaning into the kiss.  Lucius gently licked along her lower lip, probing with his tongue into the corners of her mouth until she relaxed her lips allowing him to softly stroke his tongue inside her mouth.  He moved her slightly so her back was resting against the door jam and slid his hands down the sides of her body until he could wrap his arms around her and pull her tight against him.  With his tongue thrusting gently into her mouth and his hands kneading her buttocks, he kissed her until she was breathless, as she broke away to catch her breath he whispered into her ear, "You were thinking of me, were you not?"

Mari rested her head against his shoulder so he could not see the blush spread up her face again, "What if I was?"

Lucius pulled her blouse out of the waistband of her skirt so he could get his hand on her bare breast, stroking her nipple to hardness as he replied, "As I was a part of it anyway I think it only fair that I get to watch the next time."

Mari tried to squirm out of his arms, but he held her in an iron grip, "Lucius, that is much too personal an activity for spectators."

She was so totally lost in the sensation of him holding her, stroking and caressing her that she almost didn't hear "Not spectators, only me," before he claimed her mouth again with his.  He continued to kiss and caress her until she was almost senseless, then he started kissing along her jaw to her neck and up where he ran his tongue around the delicate curve of her ear before he whispered, "So it's settled, I get to watch."

Mari leaned her head back against the door, looking at him through lust soaked eyes she shook her head saying, "What did you think you were doing?  Kissing me into submission?"

Lucius chuckled, "It worked didn't it?"

Still shaking her head Mari said, "Lucius I just don't think I could do it with someone watching me."

"Not even if you knew it was arousing me?"

"…I doubt it…it would be way too embarrassing to have someone watching."

"I like to watch, I might even help," he started kissing her again.  She combed her fingers through his hair before wrapping her arms around him, abandoning herself totally to his kiss.  It seemed that his hands were everywhere, stroking and squeezing.  Then he ran his hand down the outside of her thigh, lifting her leg and hooking it over his hip as he leaned in and ground against her.  The angle was perfect; his rock hard cock was pushing right against her clit.  Even with their clothes separating them she was close to orgasm.

"Ahhh…God…Lucius please…." She panted.

"Please what?" he asked grinding all the harder.

She was almost there, "Please……."

"Come for me," he demanded, "Now!" And she did, her whole body shaking with the force of it.  She clung to him as the spasms subsided, one leg still wrapped around him.

As she regained some control of her body she lowered her leg from around him until she was standing on her own.  Once she had steadied he released his hold on her and backed up a step. Mari looked at him, noting his disheveled hair and clothes.  Smiling slightly she kissed him, nuzzling his neck, biting gently at his earlobe.  She could feel how aroused he was, it was quite evident as he pulled her into his arms again.  She trailed her hand down his chest, over his tummy and lower to the swelling there.  She grasped him and squeezed.  She tried to move back out of his arms so she could kneel, but he held her tight.  Unable to break free she continued to stroke and squeeze until he climaxed, moaning into her mouth as he continued to kiss her.

They held each other for a moment, and then Lucius shook himself slightly, as if realizing that he was still holding her, and backed up turning away from her to smooth his hair and adjust his clothes.

"What just happened here?" She sounded confused, "Why are you being so nice all of a sudden?  What are you planning?"

Still turned away from her, "I'm not planning anything," he replied softly.  "You complained I gave you nothing and yet when I do you still complain.  Does nothing please you?"

Mari slipped her arms around him, resting her cheek on his back, "You just pleased me.  Very much."

Lucius removed her arms from around him, "Then shall we leave it at that?" He said as he walked out the door.

For the first time since his arrival Lucius totally avoided Mari for the next few days.  She was hurt and confused, things had progressed so nicely and now there was no contact at all.  After a week of being snubbed by Malfoy, she decided to confront him.  Cornering him in the storeroom she locked the door and strode to the desk where he was sitting.  "Okay Lucius, just what is your problem?"

Never lifting his eyes from the Daily Prophet he was pretending to read he replied, "I have no problem."

"You certainly do, why are you avoiding me all of a sudden?"

"I'm not avoiding you, I'm right here where I am forced to be," still not looking at her.

She walked around the desk and pushed his chair against the wall.  Pulling the paper out of his hands and tossing it on the desk behind her, she leaned over him and braced her arms on his chair as she got right in his face, "You most certainly are avoiding me, and I want to know why?"

Still not looking into her eyes he hooked a finger in the scooped neckline of her blouse pulling it out to allow an unobstructed view of her breasts, "I am not avoiding you."

"Lucius, look at me."

Eyes never leaving her breasts, "I am looking at you," he smirked.

Mari straddled him plopping herself in his lap, "My eyes, Lucius, look into my eyes."

"I like this view much better," he slipped his hands into the neckline of her blouse to caress her.

Mari grasped his wrists removing his hands from her, "If you won't look at me you can't touch me."

Lucius sighed and finally made eye contact with her, "What do you want?"

"I want…" she hesitated a moment,"…quite frankly I want a lot but right now I'll settle for you telling me why you've been avoiding me."

"I've had no need for you."

"Lucius, that's bullshit and you know it.  I've barely touched you and you're already half hard.  Don't tell me you don't need me."

"I may want you, but  I most definitely do not need you."  He yanked his wrists out of her grasp and placing his hands on her hips he settled her directly over his erection.  "You've proven yourself to be quite an interesting distraction."

"Distraction, my ass, you need me."

Lucius chuckled, "Your ass is a distraction as well, but right now…" he adjusted her blouse so that her breasts were free and buried his face between them.

"Lucius, will you stop," she pulled gently on his hair until he looked at her again, "Talk to me, what is the problem?"

"There is no problem," he lowered his head back to her breast, "and I don't want to talk!" He punctuated each word with a flick of his tongue across her nipple.

Mari knew she wouldn't get any information out of him so she gave into the sensations his mouth was sending through her whole body.  She could feel him growing harder against her thigh and reached between their bodies to unbuckle his belt, Lucius helped by lifting her slightly so she could completely open his trousers and free him.  Once she had her hand around him, he settled her back on his lap freeing his hands to slide her skirt up around her waist. Mari continued stroking and squeezing, bringing him to full arousal, while he pulled the small strip of fabric from her panties to the side and slipped his fingers inside her.

Mari threw her head back and moaned, "Lucius…I…want you now!"  His response was to lift her again allowing her to guide his throbbing cock inside her.  "Oh yes…yes!" She raised and lowered herself on him, sliding him almost all the way out before slipping back down.  She put her hand between their straining bodies intending to rub her clit but Lucius' hand got there before her and he stroked her in rhythm with their thrusting.  That was all it took and she came hard, her muscles clenching around him so tightly he couldn't hold back and exploded inside her.

She shifted her weight back on his thighs as he slid out of her, but stayed straddling him.  Mari wrapped her arms around his shoulders and leaned against him, "I knew you'd be fantastic," she whispered.

"You're not so bad yourself," he murmured before kissing her.

Mari pulled back from his persistent lips, leaning arms length away to look at him, "Why are you being so nice?  What is going on in that devious mind of yours?"

"I am not incapable of being nice," he retorted, "when I choose to be."

"Now you really are scaring me."

"I've decided you do serve a purpose, a limited one, but one that I can use to my advantage."

"I see, now that you know I'm worthy of your…time, you can treat me like I'm human at least."

"I have never walked away from someone who offered the diversion that you do.  If I must stay here for another 19 months I might as well enjoy myself."

"So I'm just a diversion…an interesting way to kill an afternoon. Is that it?"

"Uh hmm," his reply was muffled as he kissed her again.

Mari let herself be quieted by his kisses, kisses that were soft and gentle, yet insistent. As she pulled away to catch her breath she mumbled, "Okay I can live with this."
