You had finally managed to somehow pry yourself off of Lucius and head home. As you walked along the quiet streets of London back towards your home in South Kensington, you couldn't help but feel flushed and somewhat buzzed, as if you were on some sort of drug or alcohol.

You knew the high feeling was because of everything that had happened that night. Not only being reunited emotionally and physically with Lucius, the lost love of your life, but because of everything he had told you. Everything you had thought up until that point had been shattered, and for the better. Your once dark and broken heart now finally had the stitches and love it needed to heal, and for once in seven years, you were so incredibly happy and in love.

Making love to him had been incredible. You hadn't been with anyone since him all those years ago, and you didn't realize how badly your body had craved love and passion from a man, and specifically one man…Lucius of course.

You had been so happy in your thoughts you had barely noticed you were already home. You were so at peace and in the clouds that you didn't realize how fast time was going and you smiled as you unlocked your front door and made your way inside.

Emily was of course waiting for you right by the door. She gave you an angry little mewl as you had walked in, chastising you for being late for her dinner.

"I know I know kitty!" You said as you walked over to the kitchen and pulled out her bowl and a can of wet food. "But you don't realize how important it was. I swear I had a good reason for being late," you said to her, as if she could understand you.

Emily meowed at you again a bit annoyed, not caring for your excuses for why you were late and pawed at your leg as you scooped her dinner out.

You laughed and rolled your eyes at your little cat as you placed her food down where she normally ate, and then made your way upstairs to your bedroom to take off your still somewhat damp clothes and take a shower.

It pained you to have to remove your clothes and shower, as you could still strongly smell the scent of Lucius all over your clothes and your body. You never wanted to wash him off, and if it were up to you, you would have his scent all over you forever as it deeply comforted your soul. However, you knew you had to shower, you had been damp from the cold rain from earlier for several hours now and you knew you were mostly likely already going to get sick, but you didn't care. Everything was perfect in that moment.

You shed your clothes and put them in the laundry basket and then went to your small yet cozy fireplace in your room and lit a warming fire so that when you got out of the shower you'd still be nice and warm.

Putting on your robe, you stepped into your bathroom and turned on the shower, waiting for it to heat up. After about a minute or two you were about to step in, when all of a sudden you thought you heard a few knocks at your door downstairs. You whipped your head around, clutching your robe tighter against your body. It was rather late, about around 11 o'clock at night, and you suddenly became a bit nervous. Maybe you were hearing things.

You stepped out of your bathroom, your shower still running and peaked your head into the hallway that led to the staircase. You didn't hear anything, and you were about to go back to take that shower when you heard the three knocks again. So you hadn't been imagining it. Someone was definitely at your door.

Making your way slowly and nervously downstairs, clad in nothing but your thin white robe, you tiptoed to the front entrance of your home and briefly looked out the curtains that overlooked the front porch.

Immediately you saw that lovely head of platinum hair and that tall body. Your heart fluttered in your chest and goosebumps of pleasure rose on your skin. Lucius had found your home and had come to see you.

You immediately unlocked the door and stared up into Lucius' gorgeous grey eyes, as bright as the stars in the night sky above, and looked at him with your own wide surprised ones.

"Lucius," you said breathily, as your body instantly heated up again at seeing him.

Lucius leaned sexily against your doorframe and stared into your eyes passionately and urgently. "I couldn't not be with you for the rest of the night. I couldn't wait until tomorrow," he said with his gorgeous deep voice.

You swallowed hard a bit, your stomach fluttering with butterflies. You adored how much he needed you now that he had you back. You felt much the same of course.

"Come in," you smiled as you moved to the side to let him in.

As Lucius stepped into your home you saw his eyes dart around taking it in, clearly interested in your world and life. It was dark downstairs, but you could tell he was still impressed with what he saw. You had made a nice life for yourself and you were proud that he seemed impressed.

After a brief moment, you took his hand in yours and looked up again at him with a nervous smile. "I was just about to take a shower," you said softly, almost as if an invitation.

Lucius smirked one of his stunning classic smirks and squeezed your hand a bit. "May I join you Kitten?" He asked, causing another wave of butterflies to flutter in your stomach.

You smiled and led him up the staircase and into your bedroom where the fire was still crackling away causing a romantic and cozy feel throughout the room.

Your shower had still been running and steam was now flowing out of the bathroom door and you knew it was about to be the best shower you had ever experienced.

Lucius, still smirking, removed his cloak and placed it on one of your nice upholstered chairs that you had. Ever so slowly, he then undid the buttons of his shirt and then his slacks. He hadn't bothered to have worn underwear you had noticed, and you bit your lip instinctually, wanting him again so bad as you took in his perfect, God-like body that seemed to be carved from beautiful alabaster stone. His manhood was already slightly hard, and it only seemed to enhance his God-like status of perfection. You couldn't imagine a more beautiful person.

Seeing you take him in so intensely, he chuckled a bit and then sauntered over to you and took the tie of your robe in his hands and pulled it so that the tie fell to the ground and your robe opened up revealing your body to him, your nipples already hardened with arousal and delight. His warm, large hands came up to your breasts and cupped them tenderly as he rubbed his thumbs over your excited nipples. It felt so incredibly good and a moan escaped your lips.

Wasting no more time, Lucius moved his hands to remove your robe the rest of the way off of you, and then took you by the hand this time and led you to your bathroom, where the steam engulfed you both as you two stepped into your large walk-in shower.

For a moment you closed your eyes in bliss as the warm water cascaded down your body. You hadn't realized how cold you had really been, and the warmth felt so amazing.

Your eyes were still closed but suddenly you felt Lucius' hands come back and cup your breasts, but this time he started rubbing and massaging, and then his hands came up to your shoulders and massaged a bit too. You realized he had put some of your rose and vanilla smelling soap into his hands and was now washing you sensually as his strong hands massaged the soap all over your body. He then brought you close against him as his hands roved over your back and your bum, cleansing you and massaging you in all the right places. You couldn't help but moan with delight at his touch and you rested your head against his chest and closed your eyes in sublime pleasure from his touch and the water that was heating both of your bodies, making you both slippery and warm.

He held you tight against him in such a romantic embrace you felt so peaceful, as if you had gone to heaven. You were intensely aware though of Lucius' hard manhood between you as your bodies were pressed up against each other. You felt it twitch in longing for you, now fully erect. Rubbing and massaging your wet and naked body seemed to have aroused him to incredible heights.

Kissing his chest sweetly you pulled back from the embrace and lathered some soap into your hands, as you began to repeat the same ministrations he had done to you, to his glorious body. Rubbing his gorgeous muscled chest, his strong shoulders and arms and the hard contours of his abs. He seemed to be in absolute nirvana as you cleansed his body and you couldn't help but stare at his face and his expressions as you rubbed him. You could stare at him forever and never get over how handsome he was.
Your hand slowly reached down then to his hard member and you wrapped your fingers around him, holding his girth firmly as you gave it a few slow pumps, lathering it and pleasuring it.

Lucius' jaw clenched and you heard him hiss through his teeth slightly, his brow furrowing in pleasure as you pumped his cock more in your hand, the slippery feeling of it exciting you and causing your womanhood to tingle with longing for him. Although you had already made love a few times this night back at his place, you needed more of him.

With a manly groan, Lucius pressed you up against the tiled wall of the shower, causing your hand to fall away from his cock, so you then wrapped your hands around his neck, holding him close as he kissed you deeply and a bit forcefully as his hips and cock ground against your tingling core.

You moaned out into the tiled bathroom as he kissed you fiercely, both of your bodies writhing against the others' as the warm water continued to fall on you both, washing away the soap you had both applied to each other.

Soon the heat was growing higher and higher, from the steam from the shower and the heat from your bodies, you felt so warm inside and out. "I need you Lucius," you moaned into his neck as you still had your hands clinging to him as he practically held you up against the tiled wall.

Without saying anything he reached for the faucet of the shower with one hand and turned it off, and then reached both of his hands to cup your bottom and lift you up so that your legs wrapped around his waist. He then carried both of you out of the shower and back into your bedroom and placed you on the bed.

Wasting no time at all, he immediately entered your warm core, both of your bodies still wet and slick and warm; the feeling was divine.

He moved within you with purpose and your eyes were fighting between wanting to stare at his gorgeous self making love to you and also closing tightly as the pleasure was already incredibly intense.

He stayed in a rhythm for a while, as he kissed you tenderly as he continued thrusting in and out of you, your hips moving in rhythm with his as you met his thrusts with equal fervor.

Soon though, you felt your pleasure mounting, but you didn't want it to end quite yet. With a smirk, you whispered into his ear, "I have an idea."

Lucius stopped but smirked back, allowing you to take the lead. You slowly moved out from under him and then got on all fours. You had a tall standing mirror to the right side of your room and you knew if he entered you from behind you would both be able to get an extremely hot view of you both as you made love.

You looked behind you with a sensual smile and you saw Lucius looking at your backside with an even bigger smirk, his cock twitching in anticipation. "Ohhh you good girl," he cooed as he firmly grabbed your hips and tugged you back, bringing you a bit forcefully back and then sliding his cock into you, as his head fell back in pleasure. "Good, good girl," he moaned as he brought his head back up.

As his head came back up, your eyes both met in the mirror as you began to watch yourselves as Lucius began fucking you from behind. You both smiled at each other in the mirror, absolutely loving the situation you both found yourselves in.

Lucius looked absolutely stunning as the glow of the fire reflected off of his shining, wet skin, and his muscles were tensed as he pounded into you from behind, causing him to again appear God-like in your mind. He seemed to love looking at you as well, taking in your expressions of pleasure as he made you feel good and you felt him getting harder and harder inside of you as you both received visual and physical pleasure from one another.

After a bit though, both of you were getting so caught up in the sensations that you could both feel that you were getting close. Too caught up to continue looking at one another in the mirror, Lucius leaned his upper body down so that his warm chest was pressed against your back as his hips continued to move, still thrusting inside of you. He kissed your shoulder sweetly and his right hand came around to your front to circle your clit; he could sense you were close.

"Lucius," you moaned out as your eyes shut tight, all of the pleasure he was giving you building up, reaching your precipice.

"Yes my love…come for me," he said with a strained, deep voice. He was so close as well.

With a few last thrusts inside of you and circles on your clit with his fingers, your arms and legs shook and your inside walls spasmed and you cried out as your upper body collapsed onto the bed, your screams getting muffled by the sheets where your face was now slightly buried.

Lucius thrust into you hardly, his own moaning becoming more and more pronounced as he had adored feeling you come all over his manhood. Having him fuck you so hard after you had just come was almost a better feeling then the orgasm itself and you raised your head up at the perfect moment to see Lucius in the mirror right as his own orgasm hit him. He threw his head back again, his hands gripping your hips with bruising tightness as he thrust hard one, two and three times into you as his seed left him at last.

The aftermath was intense. You both seemed to be frozen in place as he had rested his upper body against your back again. You could feel his warm breath on your neck as he calmed down from his exertions, and his cock remained inside of you, still slightly hard. Soon though you both collapsed onto your sides, Lucius spooning you from behind. You were so happy and relaxed you felt as if you could fall asleep right in that moment, however Lucius was sweetly kissing your shoulders again, his warm lips leaving a trail of love wherever they touched and you mewled out in contentment at his sweet ministrations on you post-coitus.

"How did you find me?" You asked with a pleased and somewhat scratchy voice from all of the moaning you had been doing.

"You mean how did I find out where you lived?" Lucius asked. You could tell he was smirking even without looking at him.

You nodded your head.

"Well you are my employee after all. Don't all employers have their employee's information?" He laughed.

You laughed a bit. It was true. His elf had hired you and had known where to send owls to deliver you letters. Of course Lucius would have known or at least asked the elf how to find out.

"Well I'm technically not your employee anymore," you sighed, knowing that your gardening job had finished. "And I hope I can be more than just that…" you said a bit more seriously as you turned over onto your other side so you could look him in the eyes.

Lucius furrowed his brow slightly, this time seeming almost surprised you would think that. "You are more to me than anything or anyone Kitten…please know that," he implored you.

You smiled brightly hearing him say the words. "I do know that," you said, "but I love hearing it," you admitted.

Lucius smiled and brushed some of your damp hair behind your ear.

All of a sudden both of you felt the bed move slightly and then something, or someone, soft and small brush up against your feet. Lucius looked with curious eyes at the edge of the bed and sure enough your cat Emily was sitting at the edge, staring back at Lucius with equal curiosity.

"And this must be Emily?" Lucius said as he looked at your cat with a sense of amusement.

Emily, as if knowing she had just been mentioned, made a small meow at Lucius, causing the both of you to chuckle.

"Yes, this is Emily. She was rather cross with me that I was late for feeding her dinner."

"I apologize Emily, it was entirely my fault," Lucius said as he held out his hand to Emily, inviting her to come and sniff his hand and to introduce himself.

Emily stared at his hand for a brief moment before her curiosity got to her. She made her way over and sniffed Lucius, and then almost within an instant, rubbed up against his hand in warm greeting. Soon enough she had wedged herself between you two and had curled up against Lucius' warm chest, as if she had known him for ages.

"Wow," you said actually shocked at how quickly she had taken to him. "Emily doesn't meet many people, but she seems to really like you!"

Lucius smiled and rubbed his fingers on the top of Emily's head and then her ears, causing her to start purring extremely loudly.

You looked at the two of them, your heart feeling like it was going to burst at the cuteness of it all.

"I'm honored," he said as he continued petting her, and then stared back into your eyes.

"She's been my one true companion over the years," you admitted, looking down almost embarrassed.

"There hasn't been…anyone?" Lucius asked. Clearly meaning if you had been with anyone else since him.

You shook your head no. "No…I was afraid…depressed…broken…all of these years," you admitted again.

Lucius' face slightly contorted with pain and regret. "I am so sorry…you can't begin to know how sorry I am…"

You cupped his cheek to keep him from apologizing anymore. "I understand why now…I was lonely…but at least I have you again."

Lucius looked down at where he was petting Emily still, not able to meet your eye directly for a bit longer; clearly still ashamed.

"And what about you? Did you have any…companions?" You asked delicately.

Lucius looked back into your eyes, and then shrugged his shoulders slightly. "Not really no…I'm afraid I've been rather lonely these years as well. Not that I minded it though, I felt it was…well..what I deserved. And it was better than being forced into something."

Your heart broke hearing Lucius say that he felt he deserved to be lonely, but you were confused on what he meant about being forced into something.

"Forced into something?" You asked.

Lucius' eyes grew dark, clearly not enjoying the subject but he opened up more. "Yes…about a year after graduation, my parents arranged a match for me…an arranged marriage of sorts…"

You breathed in a sharp breath. Arranged marriage. Was he married?!

Seeing your fear Lucius continued. "I never married the girl," Lucius assured you, causing you to breath out a bit. "My father was insistent. She came from another noble Wizarding family, the Blacks, she was young and meek and no matter how much they put us together, we never bonded…at least not on my end. She was always more intrigued with the idea then I was. You see…I loved someone else and my heart could never open up. I didn't want to open up to anyone else and I knew I never could…" he said with a slight smile. You knew he meant you.

"No matter how hard my parents pushed, I refused…locked myself away in work…barely ever came home…and then my Father died, and so the arrangement had been broken off after that," he finished.

After a bit of silence you asked your next question. "How did your father die?" Although you had despised the man for what he put Lucius through (and you), you were still curious. You knew he had been a monumental part of Lucius' life.

"It's been almost two years now…it was his heart. One day it simply gave out," Lucius said his eyes looking even more dark and far away now. "I'm not surprised though. All of the hate that filled him towards the end…the hate and the fear that consumed him. It destroyed him. Killed him," Lucius said grimly. He then looked at the Dark Mark that was forever imprinted onto his arm. "Another horrific reminder of how this mark is a sign of pure evil. It kills not only people who went against its meaning, but also the person who wears it on their arm like a badge of pride. It's not something to be proud of. It's a curse."

You took a hold of Lucius hand and stroked it comfortingly. "I'm so sorry," you said empathetically.

Lucius softly smiled and brought your hand up to his lips and placed a sweet kiss on it.

"What about your mother?" You asked, curious. She had always been a pleasant woman to you, but you could never forgive her for standing by and doing nothing as Lucius had been tortured.

Lucius shrugged as if he didn't quite care. "She was at the Malfoy Manor for a while, but the vastness and the loneliness of the place makes her depressed, so she mostly spends time in France now, back with her side of the family."

"Oh," was all you could think to say about his mother. "Then why don't you stay at the Manor? You bought this new place in London. Why?"

"That place…holds too many horrible memories for me. Perhaps one day I would move back, but for now it's nice to have a place all my own."

You smiled, understanding what he meant.

"I'm glad I could be apart of your new place," you smiled.

"I am too Kitten," he smiled, some brightness returning to his eyes.

"If it was up to me, you'd be there with me every day," he said. "What am I going to do without seeing my gardener every day?" He winked.

"Gardens need upkeep," you smiled back, playing along as well, promising him you'd be back.

"Now that I have you back…I can't let you go…It's why I had to see you once again tonight after you left. I already felt the hole in my heart forming," he said.

"Me too," you replied as you snuggled in closer to him, Emily still wedged between you both. You both didn't say more, and soon you felt your eyes getting heavy, the comforting warmth of Lucius and Emily next to you causing you so much peace, you knew nothing bad could ever happen in that moment.

Lucius kissed you once more, before you fell off into dreams. "Don't worry my love. I'm not going anywhere. Not ever again," he promised. "Now get some rest. I'll be here in the morning. I promise."
