Chapter 61: AMELIA NIGHT

Severus Prince and Amelia Bones danced for a while in front of the eyes of many people, but neither of them paid any attention to this.

After a while, they both decided to go and sit down where Xeno and Pandora were...

Once they arrived the two introduced themselves to the two vampires and the wizard, they talked for a while all together and so a few minutes passed until Pandora started yawning.

"This feast is getting boring already...like, a lot. What do you say we get out of here?" said Amelia to Severus.

"So you want to get out of here?" Severus asked.

"Well, I was planning on leaving and taking Pandora back to her dorm. Do you want to come too?" she offered.

"Sure, seems like a good idea to get to know your common room, but Xeno?"

"He still seems to be very entertaining, but Pandora is already tired and she'll probably pretend to go back on her own so she won't interrupt him, but I don't want her to go back alone" Amelia replied.

"Not that I have any problem with that, but I'm sure she knows the corridors of Hogwarts better than both of us" Severus knew that Pandora loved walking around Hogwarts alone, so he didn't think it was anything new for her.

"Yes..., but there are some students who are not kind to her and seek to take advantage of her. Pandora doesn't really care too much about this, so I check on her from time to time and at night mostly" Amelia shrugged and sighed.

"She never talked to me about it..." commented Severus.

"As I said, she doesn't care about those things" Amelia clarified.

"I see..., well, I can say that you're a good friend."

"It's Pandora," Amelia said simply.

"She's always been a good person and a good friend to me," she added, her eyes sparkling with honesty.

Severus just nodded.

" Alright then come on, you still have to show me a few books" he smiled.

"I know, I haven't forgotten, I will tell Pandora then," she said smiling back at him.

Soon after the three greeted Xeno, the two vampires and the wizard present, they made their way friendly to the Ravenclaw tower.

Xeno insisted on joining them, but Pandora convinced him to continue finishing the notebook with the questions he had yet to ask.

"You two..., know, there's a nice broom cupboard just down the hall," Pandora said cheerfully, as she walked in the direction of the Ravenclaw dormitories.

Severus and Amelia stared at her, then looked at each other, both raising an eyebrow curious and a little amused by her comment.

"What do you mean?" began Amelia.

"Why would we want to know that?" continued Severus.

Both knowing what she was implying.

"Well, I thought you would want to leave the feast early to spend some time there, many do," commented Pandora truthfully.

Severus laughed lightly at hearing that, she was too honest for her own good.

"We're here to escort you back to your dormitory, Pandora," Amelia said in a rush.

"Oh that's good, how was your dinner?" asked Pandora changing the subject as if she had never commented on anything improper.

"The vampires seemed upset, apparently the professor didn't think to buy anything that was of interest to them, poor them, they hadn't brought anything either," she added.

Severus and Amelia exchanged amused glances as they smiled at Pandora's attitude.

"Er, well that's a pity, I enjoyed the meal and I think the Ministry members did too," Amelia said.

The three continued walking together, chatting about various things, until they reached the Ravenclaw common room.

The three of them made their way to the knocker on the large dark door.

Amelia stood in front of to talk to the eagle knocking on the door.

"I'd like a riddle," Amelia said lightly, and instantly the eagle opened his big eyes.

"Very well, I have a tricky one for you today... Rowena and Salazar are playing magic chess. They've played five games, but they've both won three. How is that possible?" the caller replied.

Severus already knew that the riddle given by the caller had to be answered in order to enter the Ravenclaw common room, and it can be answered in pairs, groups, as a single whole.

It is said that the knocker knows the limits of the Ravenclaw students and tends to make the riddles easier for some of them, that's why the riddles tend to change and varies every day and not everyone will get the same thing.

"Hmm.. good one. Because they play with more people, not with each other" Amelia answered quickly and confidently as she was used to the riddles.

The eagle-shaped caller closed his eyes for a few seconds and opened them again: "Welcome, you answered a riddle, you can come in".

The dark door opened slowly, revealing a room that was sparkling clean, shelves lined the walls, some full, some labelled, some filled with trinkets, on these were articles on all manner of studies.

Various paintings and instruments hung on the walls.

Blue sofas with bronze cushions were everywhere.

A giant calendar was on the wall of the common room that was filled with Ravenclaw students' plans and group organisations.

All around were doors everywhere and staircases lined upwards.

Severus finally entered along with Amelia and Pandora.

"Thank you for coming with me, sorry to have interrupted your time together. I had a great time tonight, thank you," said Pandora

"Me too, actually, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," Severus joked.

Amelia rolled her eyes and Pandora laughed a little.

" I had a good time as well, I managed to do a lot of things I needed to do for the future, so I'm quite satisfied," said Amelia.

"That's good..., so, good night," said Pandora happily but exhausted, turning around and heading to her bedroom.

Amelia turned to look at Severus, a question in her eyes.

"So..., what do you think at first glance of our house?" Amelia had taken him to the Ravenclaw tower after the feast because she knew about Severus' curiosity about his house and also partly because she wanted to share some time alone with him as well.

She may not have given it a thought, but she felt all those eyes on them when the two of them were dancing.

" It has its own interesting thing," Severus smiled.

The two continued talking for a while as Amelia showed him some things in the common room, then she offered to go to his room to talk more quietly and also take the opportunity to show him the books he wanted from the Ravenclaw private library, along with the books that only prefects had access to.

The two of them had been doing a lot of things at the feast and now they both wanted to relax in the Ravenclaw tower, which was the perfect place to do this as no one would bother them.

Ravenclaw had individual rooms for all the prefects.

The prefects' dormitories have many comforts and advantages, the beds are ideal for resting, they have individualised desks, the carpets, and flooring, everything is personalised.

They even have personal bathrooms and the this dorms are also gender-neutral.

These dormitories are noiseless which means they eliminate noise and you can stay up late doing whatever you want.

And Amelia being the 6th-year prefect, has her own personalised dormitory.

So it was around midnight that the two of them slipped into Amelia's room.

Her dormitory was far from modest.

Severus noticed that the bed was large enough to hold at least three people, and was decorated with large paintings and expensive-looking objects.

It had a huge wardrobe, with an ornate bedside table and a mirror.

Severus was sure that absolutely no student at Hogwarts would be too pleased that such an extravagant room was being used only by the Ravenclaw prefects when the others had to share a room with other students.

Of course, Severus wasn't that bothered by this, in Slytherin the prefects also had their private dormitories, though he still doubted they were as extravagant as these...

Perhaps he would ask Olivia Greengrass about it another time.

The two chatted for a few moments, Amelia showing him some very interesting books she had grabbed to read from the Ravenclaw private library.

Severus already knew that these books were not available in the Hogwarts common library as he had never seen them before and was interested in some of them.

A few minutes later Amelia apologised to Severus and told him that she was going to take a few moments to freshen up a bit as the night had been quite stressful and she wanted to be clean.

Severus just nodded without much trouble and entertained himself by reading a few things while she went to her personal bathroom in her room.

While he waited patiently for her to come out of the bathroom, he went to the desk and started reading some books that were only accessible to Ravenclaw prefects.

When Amelia finished showering, she opened the bathroom door and stepped out, currently, she was wrapped in a light blue dressing gown with silver decorations that had the Ravenclaw crest emblazoned on the front of the right side of her chest.

Closing the bathroom door, she took a few steps into the room when her eyes fell on Severus' back who was still reading quietly at the desk.

When Severus realised that Amelia had already finished her shower, he began to slowly turn around...

What he saw left him quite stunned.

Standing in front of him, was Amelia with her body only wrapped in an elegant but delicate dressing gown, the young woman with whom he had been with tonight, the one who said she was going to take a simple shower to freshen up and wipe off the sweat.

Severus didn't want to assume anything, but he wasn't an idiot and her intentions seemed obvious to him.

Tightening his grip on the book in his right hand and swallowing a little slyly Severus spoke to her in a relaxed manner as if he wasn't really affected by the current situation.

Amelia sat down on the bed comfortably and they began to converse again as before, without any substantial change...

Only that Severus' eyes lowered occasionally during the conversation to Amelia's cleavage and to her white, long, beautifully exposed legs.

Amelia knew immediately that his eyes were on her, yet it seemed that Severus was unaware of it.

This made Amelia laugh slightly, it was almost as if he was a child, but something told her that he was no stranger to women...

Yes..., Severus was indeed an interesting man.

'Are you going to sit and watch all day?' thought Amelia amused as her fingers curled in the soft folds of her dressing gown, she really wanted to tell him her thoughts.

Several minutes later after chatting about all sorts of things, during which Severus was surprised at the heat that had completely filled his body, his heart beating a thousand miles an hour every time his gaze strayed to Amelia's body.

He couldn't believe that his attention could be so easily distracted by a woman's body and make him react in such an embarrassing way...

Such a feeling had only happened with Padme and Lily...

He had no memory of ever feeling such an attraction to another woman's body other than theirs, in his two lives as Snape and Vader he had always completely ignored this, he didn't desire anyone else's body.

But now he knew that something had happened to his body and mind, something had changed.

What else could explain how his attention could be so easily distracted by the body of a woman that he did not love?

Such a feeling was beyond him as Vader or as Snape, since it was unlike them to think of other women.

But Severus wasn't an idiot, he understood that this was a normal reaction in any other human, he just didn't expect him to be like any other human...

Well..., Vader and Snape were definitely not like any other human...

But now Severus seemed to be like any other human and he wasn't going to lie, that made him a little satisfied...

He might have understood that it was the merging of two different people into one, but knowing that he now felt something completely new to what Snape or Vader once felt made him a little excited.

Though he had to admit that it was also a troublesome thing too.

A few moments passed and Amelia finally took the initiative to offer Severus a relaxing bath before he returned to Slytherin.

Severus considered refusing, but it didn't seem like a bad idea to take advantage of the fact that she had a personal bathroom so that he could shower and then return to his room in Slytherin to sleep clean...

Well..., he also wanted to see what else she had planned, so far she was only being provocative to look at but she didn't do anything else.

That was how Severus made his way to the personal bathroom in Amelia's room, after a brief explanation from her on how it all worked, he began the process of taking a shower.

Only moments later, Amelia stood in front of the bathroom door, and placing her hand on the doorknob, she slowly turned it to open the bathroom door.

Amelia had been waiting for this moment for quite some time, so much that she couldn't be bothered to think about how Severus would react.

Her mind went back to how Severus looked at her with his dark, black, deep, penetrating eyes, it was almost too much to handle, so much desire in his eyes, as if he had never set his eyes on another woman's body, she supposed that before he only had eyes for Lily and now he wasn't like that anymore.

All of this along with his good looks, his intelligence, and his refined, confident gaze that was hard to find in most people made her desire him, and want him.

And tonight would be hers.

Well my dear readers, finally I was able to correct and upload the chapter.

I warn you now that the next chapter will be with R-18 content, but for those of you who don't want to read this kind of stuff, you can skip it because I won't talk about anything important that will affect the story.

So you can relax.

By the way, it's hard to write R-18 scenes so I hope you have constructive critics and not just annoying complaints.

Thank you all and I hope you enjoy the chapter.
