Chapter Twenty One: Music of the Night

Severus and Evelyn slept most of the day away. It was four in the afternoon before either of them stirred. Evelyn woke first and enjoyed sometime in her husband's embrace. Her husband. She was married. Severus loved her. She let these thoughts was hover her putting her on cloud nine. Slowly she untangled herself from his and found her way to the kitchen. As quietly as she could she set about making some form of food. Shortly after she began cooking two strong arms wound their way around her waist and a face came to nuzzle her neck.

"Whoa. There's and angel in my kitchen." Severus said against her.

"Hello Professor Snape." She said.

"And hello to you too Madam Snape." He replied. Severus helped in the kitchen. Being the potions master made him quite handy cooking as well. They ate on their balcony over looking one of the many water ways or Venice.

The dishes were cleared away and a bottle of red wine was empty. Inside the villa Evelyn was getting ready fro bed. Sitting at the ornate vanity she combed her hair. She didn't hear Severus come into the room but saw him in the mirror. He cam to her and took the brush from her hand. He combed her hair gently. Mesmerized she closed her eyes and sighed softly. Severus after satisfying his need to stroke her hair turned his attention to satisfying another need. He pushed her hair aside and kissed alone the pale Coolum of her neck, she moaned. Her moan made him moan. Together they stood still kissing. Amazingly they didn't run into anything as they made their way to bed. They kissed leisurely for a while before Severus began exploring. He kissed along her jaw and down her neck. With one shaking hand he slid the strap of her night gown down. He explored the now exposed collar bone going from one side to the other. He lipped the other strap down. This exposed a good deal of her breasts. He pushed the top down and for a moment just stared at the coral tipped ivory mounds in front of him. He leaned forward and too one tiny taught tit in his mouth. Evelyn moaned and arched her back filling his mouth and holding his head there. He could spend all day just with her breast but he was tenting his boxers with an erection so hard it hurt. When he pulled away from her breast he was pushed back on the bed.

"Severus." She moaned as she tore off his shirt. She kissed him hard as she ran her cool hands over his torso. He was on fire. Reluctantly he released her mouth, but was glad he did. She kissed along his neck, hard. She bit him causing him to go into orbit and amazingly he got harder. When her lips grazed his nipple he snapped. He flipped her under him in one fluid motion. Almost as fluidly he got her naked. She was beautiful but he was a slave to his lust. But it was okay, so was she. He shoved himself out of his boxers and Evelyn thanked her lucky stars that she was looking at him, it would be terrible to miss such a magnificent piece of art. All of his egocentric and large nose allusions were absolutely right. He returned to her quickly and she spread her legs wanting to be his. Everything went smoothly once they were joined they found a pace that worked for them both and in no time at all the air was filled with the baritone bellows of the man and an unheard of soprano from the lady. It was a sound you would never expect to hear from her. The climax was as earth shattering as the duet coming from the wedded couple.
