"I love you..."
It was like a repeating mantra inside Tom's head as he was filled with shock. He never had anybody that had told him that they loved him before. Sure, there were those teenage girls back when he was at Hogwarts looking at him with admiration and love, but that didn't mean anything to Tom. They had only liked him because of his looks, and his charming personality.
But all of that was facade he had to put up for Dumbledore so he couldn't figure out his real plans. This boy, his precious boy, in front of him, sitting in his lap, loved him for who he was.
Harry knew all of his plans, he was a part of Tom himself. Had his soul stuck inside of him, and if Tom wanted to, despite what Harry said, he could easily make the other submit to him. He could easily make it so that the part of his soul inside of Harry was always in control, and Harry would be powerless, forced to watch as his body disobeyed his commands.
"Master?" He heard a voice call out to him, and realized that he had been thinking for far too long. He looked down to see Harry's worried face looking up at him.
"Was there something I said that upset you? I'm sorry Master, I won't do it again" Harry lowered his eyes, and moved to get off Tom's lap, however Tom quickly wrapped an arm around Harry's waist, and Harry looked up at him with confused red eyes.
Tom wished that they were green.
He cupped his horcrux's face in his hands tenderly, loving how his eyes widened innocently, head tilted to the side in confusion.
"Mast- mmph!" Harry got interrupted as Tom crashed his lips onto Harry's.
Tom was certain that he had never loved anyone more than he loved Harry at that moment. The kiss was gentle, sweet, tender, and passionate all at the same time. It lasted for several moments before they had to come up for air, much to Tom's annoyance, only to crash his lips back onto Harry's in the next second.
After they had pulled apart after several minutes, Tom looked at Harry.
He definitely wanted to see this again.
Harry was panting, eyes wide, and his lips were swollen and plumped and looked like they would bruise. His already messy hair was stuck up in all directions, and he was looking at Tom with lust in his eyes. Tom smirked at him.
"Come now, my little serpent, I must show you something."
Curiously, Harry followed Tom, and noticed that they were descending down the spiral staircase more and more until they reached a torch-lit room.
There were cells in the room, Percy noticed, they must be in the dungeons, but why would Tom bring him here?
Tom led him to a cell that was at the very end, and Harry saw the figure of a male with chains around his wrist and legs, head down, panting. When they stopped in front of his cell, the male looked up with a sneer forming on his face as he saw Tom, however that quickly changed when he saw Harry.
The look turned to one of curiosity "What do we have here? Is this another person for me to feed on?" He asked, still eyeing Harry, and Harry found that he could not look away from those enchanting eyes that seemed to lure him in.
Without realizing it, while he was admiring the beauty of the creature before him, he had slowly started to walk towards the cell, as if in a trance. Harry jerked as he realized he was so close to the lock and unlocking the cell.
Tom chuckled "I see that my serpent can indeed resist the temptations"
"Let me have one bite. One drop of his blood. Please" The man took a deep breath in "His scent is so pure, the power levels are unimaginable in a mere teenage boy... He is precious"
Tom narrowed his eyes "Yes, he is precious, but he is mine. You will do well to remember that Princeton. You will only get a small pint of his blood because we have run out of potions for you to take. You are to take great care of him, and if he is unharmed I will see to it that you get little servings as a reward every once in a while. However, if you serve me... that will be a different story." Tom said, and felt bad for using his precious serpent as bait for the vampire, but what other choice did he have?
His horcrux would surely understand.
"Master? What's going on?" Harry asked, confused, and Tom placed a hand on his cheek tenderly.
"Don't worry, my little serpent, I won't let any harm come to you. He's just going to have a quick bite out of you. It shouldn't hurt for more than a second. If you feel faint, alert me immediately through our connection if you can't speak" He said gently, and lightly shoved Harry inside with the vampire, who was in just enough range to grab a hold of Harry.
"Calm down precious..." The vampire whispered in his ear in a soothing voice, and Harry's body responded to the man, much like it does around Tom.
"I'm just going to have a quick snack" He said, and before Harry could react, the man had sunk his fangs into Harry's neck deeply, and Harry gasped.
Yeah, sure it hurt at first as he put his fangs in, but afterwards it was amazing. Harry had never felt such pleasure before. As the man drank greedily, taking in large mouthfuls and gulping it down, Harry's eyes had rolled into the back of his head and he tilted his neck to give the man more access.
The man removed himself from Harry's neck and quickly slashed his own wrist with his long fingernail and put it to Harry's mouth.
"Drink" He commanded quickly, and watched with delight as Harry put his mouth over his wrist and started sucking on it, moaning at the taste.
"NO!" Shouted a furious voice, and the vampire turned to see Tom at the doorway, Harry still sucking his wrist, and Tom pointed his wand at the man.
"Harry, get back." Tom commanded, and was even more furious when Harry refused to listen to him.
But the thing was, Harry couldn't stop. The man's blood was the best thing that he had ever tasted, and with each gulp he felt more and more powerful. It was like he could do anything.
"He's mine now, Voldemort, you're too late." He smirked, and saw Voldemort clench his fists.
"CRUCIO!" Tom shouted, and watched in horror as Harry immediately detached himself from the vampire's wrist to stand in front of him protectively, taking the full impact of the curse himself...
