the hissing reptile

"You wanna know something, Malfoy? You're such a fucking, pathetic freak. Let me guess. Daddy never showed you any love? Mommy never complimented your drawings? How does it feel to be a fucking disappointment? You are not good enough. Whatever you do, you do it wrong. You can't even be evil and make your parents proud. And you can't be good either. You're gonna die alone, knowing that no one likes you. Knowing that you never had anyone to love you. Knowing that you were a mistake." - I do not own the rights of the images used and the characters mentioned. All credits go to the owner and J.K. Rowling.

Chloe Finch was the aspiring actress I'd sponsored for five years. From a small town to the fringes of Hollywood, I paid for every cent of her acting classes and living expenses. I had treated her like a sister. When she was diagnosed with a rare hereditary progeria syndrome, I even begged my husband, Jorge Thorne—Emerald Hills' most celebrated plastic surgeon—to get her a spot in a top gene therapy trial. But on the day she signed with a small-budget independent film… I went to his downtown penthouse early, wanting to give him a surprise. Instead, I found Jorge pressing her against an Italian leather sofa, gently kissing her slightly swollen belly. "Jorge, if Rhiannon finds out about our baby, will she take away my spot in the trial?" Jorge pulled her into his arms, his voice smooth with its practiced, magnetic charm. "Don't worry. A woman like Rhiannon is so rational she’s practically a reptile. She could never understand the kind of soul-deep connection we have—the passion of two true artists." "Besides, she’ll behave. She knows I’m up for the cover of Apex magazine and won't do anything to jeopardize my chances." "Once I secure that one-of-a-kind clinical trial spot for the gene therapy, I'll divorce her and give you and our child a real future." I stood frozen outside the door, the biological key chip I’d just picked up from the lab growing cold in my hand. I didn't push the door open. I didn't cause a scene. I just calmly snapped it in two and tossed it into a decorative vase in the hallway. Jorge Thorne. You had no idea, did you? And the final approval for that trial? It comes from me. The very wife you just called cold-blooded.

"The way you behave...behave around me, with me it's highly inappropriate. I don't want you think I'll be your little assistant that you fuck on top of your desk or in the break room, if that's your intention I think it's best if you fire me or atleast send me back to work for Mr Caine," I told him after a couple seconds of silence I turned to face him to be greeted with a hard look on his face. "Amelia....I'm sorry if you thought that was my intention, I can see where you would get that idea.. and I apologize for my lack of communication, in what I want," "So what do you want?" I asked my voice sounding strange I cleared my throat, he reached forward taking my ice-cream placing it on the bench his hand moving to my chin making sure I held eye contact. "You..I want you Amelia," he answered his voice soft but held a level of firmness. I sat there looking at him, his eyes filled with emotions and unspoken words that had me melting under his gaze. "What do you mean y-" "Please don't make me repeat myself, I find it quite annoying," he replied his other hand moving from my knee to thigh the grip firm. "Well you're my boss telling me that you...want me, I think I'm going to need some clarification Xavier," I said frustrated and he swallowed hard, his Adams apple moving and I wish I could know what he was thinking. Before another thought can pass through my mind, his lips are on mine. Shakespeare The course of true love never did run smooth
