A night to remember.

(Permission to completely godmode Jaiden has been given to Signe.)

It was a perfect night for going out. The weather was warm and there was a vibe in the air that gave Signe a buzz of excitement. A new club had opened up in town and Si had heard it was the hottest place to be. Of course, to get in though, you had to be well connected and thanks to Jaiden, she was. Her best friend, who was currently going through Signe’s wardrobe for something to wear, knew the right people to drag in. So as a favour for her friend, Si had owled Nathaniel Evens and whoever he wanted, to join her with a few friends who would accompany her alongside a date she was bringing, so that it was more of a party.

Although, date wasn’t really the right word – it was more her current distraction from Nate and the weird relationship between Jai and Seth. She still had some strong feelings for Seth, yet now new feelings had grown and all she could think about in bed at night was the touch of Nate’s hands and mouth all over her body. For the past week, she had been busying herself as much as she could with her new boy toy, Carter. Although it hadn’t really work, she was determined to keep going until she could forget Nate’s touches and Seth’s hold over her heart. Really, she could almost see how hard it was for Jaiden to come to terms with her feelings.

The two girls had been giggling over the past hour over different crazy outfits they could wear to the club and didn’t become serious about their choices until ten minutes ago. They were timing it so that they had enough time to do hair and makeup before Signe’s ‘date’ was arriving to escort them to the club. They were going to meet Nathaniel and whoever he brought at the club.

Jaiden eventually decided on a dress that matched the same colour as Signe's dress. They finished their makeup and hair and walked down to the door just as the bell rang.

Carter was standing at the door looking impeccable in his white suit and in his hand was a bouquet of flowers for Signe. As sexy as he was and .. average in bed as he was, Signe had to hold back a laugh at how cheesy he was being. Jaiden, who was standing to the side of Signe could see the slight shake of her friend’s body and elbowed her in the side. She thought it was sweet that Carter was going through the effort of being nice to Signe even though from what she knew, he was her latest boy toy. Signe had to stop herself from rolling her eyes and smiling sweetly she accepted the flowers and gave them to her butler standing off to the side. “Thank you Carter,” Signe said lightly and stepped up to kiss him on the cheek.

Carter grinned down lazily at Signe and marvelled at how gorgeous she was. Not wanting to appear rude, he waved at Jaiden and said a quick hello before asking if they were ready to leave. Signe nodded and stepped away from Carter to apparate to the club. “See you all there?”

Before she knew it, the trio were standing outside the club waiting for the rest of the group to arrive. Carter had his arm around Signe’s shoulders and she leaned in to rest her head against his chest whilst Jaiden was leaning against the wall, twirling her wand around in her fingers.

The club was across the alley from them and Signe could hear the beat of music pumping through the three storey building. It was latest rage running through the society at the moment. Some smart wizard had decided to create a place to transport witches and wizards alike back to a time where they could forget all their troubles; a time where burlesque was as common as rats running around the street. For sure, it was definitely going to be an experience like no other, Signe had been told and she could believe them just from the design of the place. It looked dark and hazy and even though she was a Ravenclaw, the darkness inside her appreciated how inviting the place looked. There was a hint of danger as if the moment you stepped in, you would be transformed into another person.

Tonight was going to be a night she wasn’t going to forget. But it couldn’t start until the Nate and his possey got here.

Nate was sitting at the edge of his bed, the black silk sheets were crumpled and two twenty-something woman were tangled in the sheets. Nate had a cigaret between his lips sucking in deeply. He’d recently been spending all his time fucking every willing pureblood witch he could get his greedy hands on. Still he couldn’t find the release he was seeking. Just one witch was prominent in his thoughts; Signe.

She was beyond anything he had ever experienced and he was frustrated beyond all hell that he couldn’t get her out of his thoughts. “Fuck!” he yelled as he stood up; the two woman in his bed stirred but didn’t awaken. Taking a long drag from his cigaret he went and lent up against the floor length window that over looked the Evens Estate’s front garden. He was only clothes in a pair of grey sweat pants and his chest bored the scratches of his latest bedding. Nate touched his shoulder and the pressure made him flinch as the memory of Signe bitting down on his shoulder marking him and hers. “Fuck,” he swore again before he spotted a dark looking owl flying into the Evens Estate. Standing up straight he waited patiently as the owl landed gracefully on his balcony. Extracting the small message from the birds leg Nate ripped open the note and read a small smile growing on his face.

“Well, Signe, I’d love too,” he said to no-one in particular. He looked outside for a few seconds before dropping the note on the floor and walking over to the two women in his bed. “Ladies,” he crooned, “it’s time to get up, we have a party to go to,” he kissed one of the women hard as the other draped herself over his body.

Thirty minutes later Nate had dressed casually in a white shirt, black pants, casual shoes and his trench coat and hat.
Paige and Christy, the woman Nate had been shagging all day were equally well dressed. He admired them for less than thirty seconds before he decided they looked acceptable.

“Let’s go ladies, we have a party to crash,” and crash they would, Nate was well known for his disruptive behaviour; not disruptive because he was a crude drunk or violent but because just his appearance and all the woman in the club were totally sucked in.

The party apparated a few feet from the door to the club; Nate had his arms wrapped around Paige and Christy and without loosing a beat they walked straight into the club. The pumping music was heavy and Nate planned, yet again to enjoy himself. He and the girls walked over to a prime seating spot and sat down, they ordered drinks and Paige lit Nate another cigaret before draping herself over his shoulder. Christy glared jealously at her before leaning into Nate and pressing her body up against his. Nate took a drag of his cigaret before expelling it out in a slow breath.

His eyes had been trained on the door and Signe and her party had just entered. Nate smirked at her obvious ‘date’. “Show time ladies,” he whispered to them without taking his eyes off Signe’s body. She was dressed to kill and he was clearly effected by her. He took another drag of his cigaret before making sure that Signe was watching and expelled his breath provocatively over Christy’s face before kissing her slowly and passionately. Paige then turned his face towards her and kissed him with fervor. Nate didn’t feel a thing, all he could think of was that he hoped it was driving Signe up the wall because her being with that idiot in white was certainly driving him crazy. The heavy beat was thrumming through the seats and Nate leaned back as Paige and Christy began to attack his neck. His head resting against the back wall he smirked in Signe’s direction before taking another drag on his cigaret. He was already aroused by her entrance and he couldn’t help thinking that taking her up against one of these walls with the beat of the music thumping through her body to his was something he just had to try.

When Signe saw the familiar head of a certain blonde, she raised an eyebrow. And froze when she saw two pretty women by his side. “Fuck me,” she thought and was glad that she brought Carter after all. Behind her, Jaiden, who had been casually twirling her wand whilst sharply observed the surroundings as she normally, did noticed that Nate had arrived and saw how her friend reacted. Interesting, the Slytherin thought and pushed herself off the wall. Signe was still standing there and as Jaiden walked around she could see a hint of jealousy in her friend’s eyes. A little pan of something sliced through Jaiden, but she tried to ignore it. Whatever it was between Jaiden and Nate, Jai didn’t want to voice any of it to Signe because it might get back to Seth.

Thankfully Carter was so oblivious to what happened that he kept chattering on away about some sort of nonsense. Honestly, Jaiden thought, Couldn’t Signe have picked someone who could at least make decent conversation. After listening to his chatter for the past five minutes, Jaiden no longer felt that Carter was sweet.. he was just plain annoying.

Nudging her best friend, Jaiden interrupted Carter and pointed at the door. “Our other half of the party has arrived, Carter. Although why they didn’t meet us properly out here is something I don’t know and intend to grill our friend about. Why don’t we go in??” Signe blinked and turned her head to a very observant Jaiden. Shit, she thought internally, it looks like she’d have to be careful around Nate tonight with Jaiden there. Although, Si felt it wouldn’t be so bad if Jaiden figured it out – she’d then have an outlet for all the things that had been bottling up inside her the past week.

Carter nodded in response to Jaiden and, with his arm around Signe, put an arm forward for Jaiden to lead them through the club doors. The bouncers recognised the Edwards heir and let her and her friends through without even stopping them for identification.

Once inside, Jaiden immediately located Nathaniel and his two escorts and started leading the way over to him. Behind her, Signe was feeling a growing sense of excitement and fear that she was going to be hunted tonight by a certain blonde. The whole place was thrumming with music and Signe found Nate as fast as Jai, which wasn’t too difficult. She caught his smirk and Signe looked coolly at Nate, although her heart was pounding a thousand beats a minute. She could feel his eyes rake over her body and without meaning to, her body started heating up. Slowing down and completely forgetting that Carter still had her arms around her, Signe kept her eyes on Nate as he took a drag of his cigarette before he kissed one of his girls passionately.

As the trio got closer, Signe watched as the dark skinned girl turned her face to kiss him and it was all she could do to restrain herself from growling at Nate in annoyance. It seemed, somehow, that a game was on between them even before she entered the club and she was determined to give as good as she got. She kept a cool facade on and kept watching him as the girls moved down and attacked his neck. His arms were around them and he looked like he owned the place. Fuck, he looks good Si thought. Her heart was still pounding and she realised that Carter next to her was completely oblivious to it all. It seemed he was looking around the place in awe.

Signe caught his smirk and by the time the three of them reached Nate, the girls were still attacking his neck. Jaiden, due to walking faster than the pair, had already seated herself down and Signe’s eyes flickered briefly over to her friend noticing that something was bothering her best friend. She’d find out what her problem was later and flicked her eyes back to Nate.

By then, Carter had noticed they finally stopped and found himself looking down at the fearsome sight of a man that was currently staring down his date as if she was his prey. A slight chill spread through his body and he found he was slightly afraid of this powerful man in front of him.

Signe on the other hand smiled down sweetly at the trio, however a darkness lurked under the surface of the smile. She was out to play and anyone who got in the way would be taken down harshly. Breaking free of Carter, Signe leaned down and pulled Nate’s cigarette out of his mouth and took a drag of it before blowing it into the direction of one of the girls who by then had stopped kissing Nate. Signe’s red lipstick left a ring around the base of the ciggie, but she didn’t notice. Still smiling her dangerous smile, Signe placed one hand on Nate’s shoulder and bent down to kiss him on the edge of his mouth, feeling pleased as her lipstick left a mark on it. “Hello Nathaniel,” Signe said softly but loud enough for his companions to hear the danger lurking under her skin. “It’s a pleasure to see you again,” and finished by placing the cigarette back into his mouth, with her fingers lingering against his lips.

All the while, she stared into his eyes, a challenge lurking amongst them. She was out to play a game and he better be ready.

Satisfied, she pulled back and pulled Carter next to her. “Nathaniel, this is Carter, my date for tonight. Carter, Nathaniel,” she introduced. During it, she played with Carter’s hair with her right hand, whilst her left held onto his strong arms. She noticed he seemed a bit fearful and wondered what it was that was making him so. “Nice to meet you,” Carter said as manly but cautiously as he could. The display he saw between Nate and Signe left no doubt that he was just a pawn in the game. He didn’t mind, so long as he didn’t get physically hurt in the process. It was the least he could do after Signe spent a week pleasuring him and vice versa.

Signe smiled up at carter and pulled him down to place a longing kiss on his lips. Carter responded in kind and unconsciously moved one of his hands to Signe’s delightful arse. Satisfied, Si pulled back and smiled wickedly up at Carter before turning back to Nate and smirked at him. She lead the way to the seat opposite him and pushed Carter down onto it before sitting down on his lap so that her back leaned against his. His arms wrapped around her and she made sure she felt comfortable in it before looking back to Nate. “So, Nathaniel, are you going to introduced me to your girls?” She said, loud enough for him to hear her. Her cool gaze turned to the girl on the left before turning to the girl on the right and she stared them down before looking back at Nate.

All the while, Jaiden had withdrawn more and more into herself feeling a slight headache coming to the forefront of her mind. She was confused about something but it was so hard to think with all the pounding noise in the bar that she barely noticed the encounter in front of her.

Nate had been staring directly at Signe as Paige and Christy kissed his neck, he couldn’t help but feel poisonous jealous boiling under his skin. The idiot Si was with had his arm slung around her and was looking far more familiar and comfortably with Signe’s body than Nate liked. Nate glared hard at the boy and he felt immense satisfaction to know that he’d affected him; he looked scared and Nate noted that he was at least smart.

Jaiden had made her way over to his party sooner than Signe had and Nate felt a small pull towards her before it was smothered by the sight of Signe. Up close she looked far more edible than he had imagined. Her body was wrapped in a pretty blue dress, her feet with blue heals that shoed off her legs and arse. Nate sucked in a breath.

He watched Signe’s cool facade and felt irritated that she wasn’t effected by his actions. He gave her a dark look and decided that this was war; he’d have her begging by the end of the night, that he promised himself and as she was probably aware Slytherin’s always got what they wanted, he had her panties to prove it.

“Signe,” he said gravely as he eyed her up and down, “glad you could join us,” he said before taking a drag of his cigaret. He could see her date quaking in his shoes beside her and he eyed him like he was scum on his overpriced shoes. He also noticed with a hint of pride at Signe that his two dates were affronted and clearly afraid of Signe, if he’d been paying more attention to Jaiden he would have noticed that Paige had been effected by her arrival as well; she knew what kind of power Jaiden could wield and Paige wasn’t stupid, even if Christy was.

Signe leaned down slowly and pulled out Nate’s cigarette, it gave him a glorious view of her breasts and Nate didn’t mind half as much as he usually did when she took a provocative drag, he let out his breath just as she did right in Christy’s face. “Bitch,” Christy said under her breath totally pissed off. Signe leaned in and kissed Nate on the edge of his lips, Nate didn’t move except to lift his hands to gently graze his fingers down her chest before leaning back in his seat.

“Hello Nathaniel, it’s a pleasure to see you again,” she said softly, Nate detected the dark tone to her voice and grinned back. “Si,” he said suggestively. She handed back his cigarette which was stained with her lipstick and Nate made sure to race his tongue along the length of it before dragging on it again. Even her lipstick had the ability to turn him on. He recognised the glint in her eyes as a challenge, oh she’d be playing tonight and he was ready for it, bring it on his eyes seemed to say.

Paige passed Nate his drink before whispering something in his ear and kissing his jaw, Nate smiled indulgently at her before she rose and went to the dance floor. She began dancing keeping her eyes trained on Nate who was watching her move her body temptingly; many men came up ready to dance with her but she brushed them off. Christy was back to kissing Nate’s neck once again while he watched Paige dance sipping his drink. His attention was drawn back by Signe’s voice, “Nathaniel, this is Carter, my date for tonight. Carter, Nathaniel,” she said, Nate’s face took on a disgusted look before he nodded at Carter. “Carter,” he said in a low voice before taking a sip of his drink. He looked totally in control and more than anything, dangerous. His eyes snapped to Signe’s fingers which were playing with his hair. His eyes flashed dangerously, he couldn’t tell if she was enjoying Carter’s company but he’d be fucked if she would for the rest of the night.

“Nice to meet you,” Carter said cautiously, Nate ignored him and slammed the rest of his drink down his throat. He watched with growing anger as Signe kissed Carter long and deep he nearly whipped out his wand when he noticed Carter’s hands roaming over Signe’s arse. Fuck Nate thought, if this is how you want to play Si. Signe turned back and smirked at Nate, he glowered at her.
Nate decided he’d had enough so he turned his face away, missing her little play with Carter. He knew that if he saw anymore he’d be dueling Carter within a few seconds. Instead he slid his hand over Christy’s thigh and kissed her intensely, her short black dress was perfect for easy access; Paige not to be out done by Christy came back to sit down next to Nate, she was glaring at Signe; she could see that there was something going on between Nate and the ‘new girl’ she had the smug thought of knowing that she was higher up the food chain. She pushed her body against Nate’s before tugging on his shirt to glimpse his hard chest. She turned glazed eyes towards Signe as she questioned Nate, he turned towards Signe as well extracting his lips from Christy’s to answer her question. “This is Christy Hartly,” he said indicating to the pale beauty beside him, taking a drag on his cigarette he took out his trump card that was sure to get Signe’s blood boiling just like his was; “and this is Paige Devon... my betrothed,” he said in a deep voice, raking a hand down Paige’s chest, “Paige doesn’t mind having a bit of fun, do you babe?” he asked before slamming his lips to hers, Paige’s eyes were wearily trained on Signe’s unsure.

Breaking off his kiss he turned back to Carter and directed a questions at the clearly aroused boy, “where are you from Carter?” Nate leveled a hard stare at the boy; he was trying to be nice but it wasn’t really working for him. Not waiting for a reply he stood up Paige and Christy still draped on his arms. “I feel like a dance, ladies,” he said to Jaiden and Signe before guiding Paige and Christy onto the dance floor.

Their bodies moved in sink, Christy behind and Paige in front; Nate’s hands roamed over Paige’s body pulling her hips close to his and rolling in a clockwise rhythm. Christy had her hands gripping Nate’s belt grinding her hips into his her hair falling sexily over her shoulders and face. Many couples were dancing similarly, the beat was hypnotic and Nate found himself enjoying the music even if his company wasn’t as mind blowing as Carter’s was. Nate purposefully bit his lip as if he was trying to conceal some kind of great pleasure, grinding his hips against Paige’s once more before turning and doing the same to Christy who now had her back to Nate, she instantly arched her back showing off her impressive chest. Nate’s hands slid from under her breast down to the apex of her thighs. All the while Paige was sliding her body all over his back. Nate turned his gaze from Christy towards Signe and kissed the air lifting his hands from Christy’s body he pointed his finger at Signe, curling it slowly indicated to her to join him. He hoped she’d leave Carter behind, he had something to show her that she would not soon forget.

“Signe, glad you could join us,” she heard Nate say and she nodded curtly in reply. Signe ignored the fact that Carter was feeling uncomfortable and nervous besides her; if he couldn’t deal with Nathaniel, then he’d just have to learn to be a man. Her gaze swept over his two escorts and she felt powerful as she saw they were clearly afraid of her. Her dark mood under her facade was definitely working its magic. Tonight was a night for games between two strong people and clearly, they were going to wreak havoc.

When Signe heard the light skinned girl say she was a bitch, Signe’s eyes snapped to hers and she coolly looked at her, eyes cold and with a taunting smile on her face. But she didn’t say anything, as she was beginning to learn a look was a thousand times more powerful than words. When she leant over to give him a kiss, she could feel Nate’s hands lightly grazing down her chest and she shuddered lightly. Dear Merlin, that one touch was already leaving her wanting for more.

His suggestive tone only caused a rush of pleasure and thoughts of him throwing her against a wall and ravishing her took over her mind. She tried as hard as she could to push it away so she could play the game that he seemed to be accepting. He was going to bring it on, she knew and a thrill of excitement rushed through her.

As she was standing up, with her hands shaking slightly, she noticed the dark skinned girl going to the dance floor and the other girl kissing Nate’s neck again. Her eyes narrowed and she almost ripped the girl off him as she felt a streak of possessiveness take over her. However, after a few deep breaths she gained controlled again as she knew acting rashly would only mean she would lose the game.

Carter was frightened almost of Nate’s look, but he stayed where he was feeling that Signe’s presence would protect him. Nate’s eyes were dangerous and Carter wondered if he was now willing to be a pawn in the game that it seemed his date and Nathaniel were playing. Maybe he would spend the rest of the night in Jaiden’s company, where he was sure he would be safe from any collateral damage. But when Signe kissed him, he felt pleased that it was him she was choosing to kiss and not Nate and felt like he won this round as moved his hand to her arse. When Signe turned back, she felt a thrill that Nate was reacting to her kiss. The glare didn’t scare her, but rather empowered her knowing that if they ever came to blows, there would be some pretty powerful sex afterwards.

When Signe turned back to watch Nate, she narrowed her eyes. Both girls were sitting there devouring Nate and she felt like if she didn’t hold onto Carter’s hand and kept playing with his hair that her wand would be out in an instant, ready to cast a spell to knock them far away from Nate so she could be the one devouring him. She noticed the dark skinned girl glaring at her and Signe stared her back in the eye, not blinking. Her mouth was pressed into a fine line and her eyes flashed dangerously as that girl kept fondling Nate.

When she heard that the pale ‘beauty’ was Christy, she nodded her head tartly at the Hartly before turning to the other girl. Upon hearing that Paige Devon was his betrothed, her eyes snapped to his and her mouth opened slightly in shock. Betrothed? she thought stupidly. What the fuck? Signe’s face turned dark as Nate was decided then was the best time to kiss Paige. Behind her, Carter was warily watching the whole situation and hoped for the two girl’s sake that they were wary of Signe. She was shaking slightly in anger and he could feel that she was ready to do something stupid. Carefully, he placed a hand on hers and squeezed them. At Carter’s touch, Signe calmed down only a little glad that someone had her back. Her glare switched from Nate and onto Paige. Even though she was his betrothed, it seemed that she was fine with the other tart making out with Nate. Maybe they weren’t serious and if they were, Si felt an urge to break them up.

When Carter heard Nate ask him a question, he blinked in surprise, but had no time to answer as Nate stood up suddenly. Jaiden was still lost in thought and by then her head was in her arms as she tried to rub the pain out of them. Something was wrong with her and she was starting to wish she never came.

Signe meanwhile, watched Nate head to the dance floor with narrowed eyes, clearly unimpressed with him. He had a lot of explaining to do, but she knew she would get out of them another day when they weren’t playing these mind games with each other. Signe couldn’t help but watch the trio dance on the floor and her control was starting to slip. All three, she had to admit looked beautiful, like they were having sex on the dance floor, whilst not having sex at all. It made her crazy just from looking at Nate’s face which looked like he was enjoying himself. Christy’s chest was impressive, but Si was unimpressed as Nate’s hands went wandering over his two escorts. By then, Carter wasn’t even looking at the trio but rather looking worriedly at Jaiden. It seemed her best friend was too far drawn into a mind game so it was up to him to look out for Jaiden. He didn’t care if Si went off and did Merlin knows what; they had their fun for the week already and he wasn’t going to regret anything.

Si watched as Nate’s gaze turned towards her and she locked eyes with him as he kissed the air and lifted his fingers at her to join him. It was like he was the hunter, hypnotising his prey and she was his prey. She couldn’t resist him and slowly, Signe got up before slowly, but sensually started walking to the door. The music was sliding over her body and she started to move to the beat, moving her hands all over her body and swaying her hips to the music; all the while never letting go of her gaze from Nate. All around her, she could feel the men’s eyes on her as she made a sensual walk towards Nate. She had forgotten all about Carter.

When she reached Nathaniel, Signe ignored the two girls on either side of him, Signe started dancing in tune with his body but rather than touching him, her hands ran all over his body without once touching him. The lack of touching him drove her up the wall and she brought her lips close to his but before she touched them, she blew onto them and pulled away, continuing her sensual non-touching dance. She would go crazy if he didn’t touch her soon.

Watching Signe watching him, Nate felt he had the upper hand in their little game; she was watching him with dark and narrowed eyes the kind that screamed ‘what the fuck are you doing?’ Nate continued to dance hopping to entice her enough to come over. The smooth movements of the girls he was with to any outsider was spectacular, they looked like they’d been dancing for centuries. Nate beckoned Signe to join them, he would hunter her like he’d never hunted anyone before; he didn’t know if it would take a week or a decade to win her over but he was planning on waiting it out, however long it took.

Slowly Signe raised her body from her seat and moved in tandem with the beat towards Nate; he slowed his own dancing so as to fully take her in. Absently he noticed that every man in the room had their eyes trained on Signe and his eyes flashed with admiration and possessiveness. He felt proud that she could illicit responses like that with total strangers; she was in fact very similar to himself in that respect. Her hips were swaying to the music while her hands slid over her body; she was purposefully keeping her distance and Nate was getting frustrated. He was usually all for patience but generally it was him who was in control. Drinking in her gaze he forgot about Paige and Christy and just concentrated on Signe as she reached him. Paige and Christy unconsciously backed off and continued dancing, Nate hardly noticed because Signe had started to dance in tune with him and he couldn’t help but feel pleasure that their bodies could easily keep up with each other. In a slow and torturous way Signe began to run her hands over his body without actually touching, he could feel the pressure of the warm air as it moved over his body though and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up. Bringing her lips close to his she blew out a sweet breath before pulling away. Paige by this time had realised that her and Christy would probably have to divert themselves for a couple of minutes while Nate and Signe danced with each other; it frustrated her but she wasn’t about to pick a fight with Signe, she was too intimidating.

Nate was literally going crazy in his mind, nothing seemed to connect in his brain, he couldn’t think about anything except Signe’s nonexistent touches. Suddenly his mind came back to reality and he grabbed Signe by the hips and slammed her body to his. She meshed perfectly to his and he began a slow movement of his hips, his arousal killing him be damned. Sliding his fingertips down her arm with feather light touches he breathed his hot breath over her exposed skin. He dearly wanted to do to her what he’d done a week previous but he didn’t like the idea of all the men in the room enjoying him divest Signe’s dress from her oh so responsive body. His touches were soft and light, not demanding or impatient, he had her just where he wanted her and he was going to take his time. Slowly he let his fingertips slid from her arms to rest on her back before moving them to her arse, he squeezed gently and drew her closer. The music was doing just as he expected, sound waves moved from the speakers through the floor up Signe’s body and into his. The feeling was erotic to say the least. Slowly without stopping their dancing he moved his free hand to grasp her small neck; Nate gazed into her eyes, his glazed over in lust before he lowered his lips tenderly to hers. The graze was momentary but it ignited his body, he didn’t care if he’d been the first one to break their no-hands policy, he just needed to feel her pressed up against him.

Signe thought about nothing but the sole pleasure she was getting from dancing with Nate and the feeling of the beat coursing through her veins. Suddenly, he grabbed her by the waist and slammed her body into his. She could feel that he fit so perfectly against her and wondered if she would go insane at the closeness. The thought that he fit so perfectly didn’t even bother her at that moment as she was so lost in the sensation of dancing with Nate. Her hips began moving sensually against his and the beat from the music was trembling through their bodies.

She felt the familiar arousal his rubbing against her hips and Signe smirked up at Nate through hooded eyes. His fingers sliding down her arm were leaving goose bumps and she moved her hands up to his neck but let herself barely rest her hands on them.

His breath over her skin left a trail of burning fire and she shuddered at how delightful it felt. He had to know just how much he was affecting her, because she felt like she could never say no to him where it truly mattered. And oddly, she found she was okay with that.

As Nate slowly slid his fingers down her body, her breathing sped up and her heat felt like it was doing a dance on its own when he pulled her even closer. Si felt like he would consume her with his glazed gaze and as he pulled her neck closer with his free hand, she never looked away from his gaze. His kiss was light at first and followed the pattern of their dance and Si closed her eyes momentarily before the heat ignited inside of her – a different type, only brought out of her when he kissed her.

Gasping, she pulled away and whispered into his lips. “You consume me like a fire consumes would consume the world if we never stopped it.” She didn’t know why she said that, but somehow it felt like the right thing to say. Raking her hands through his hair, Signe desperately pulled his head towards hers and slammed her lips onto his, the earlier softness gone. She needed to feel him surround her it felt like nothing else mattered. It had been a week since she had kissed him but it felt like an eternity of torturous desire and longing for his touch instead.

Moving her mouth down, she started kissing along his jaw line and down his neck to the now very faded spot on his collarbone. Sucking on it hard, she re bit the same spot and licked it softly afterwards. He was hers and she made sure he would never forget it. She barely knew him that well, but after seeing him at school for seven years and having the little encounter with him a week before, there was some undeniable pull that brought her to him and she wondered if he had bothered to get to know her and vice versa in Hogwarts, if they’d have this same pull. Or whether it was only happening because they were ready to handle each other.

Her right hand left his hair and as she started kissing her way back up to his lips, her hand dipped under his shirt and started scratching his stomach; but this time harder than ever. Her hips were still moving along with his to the beat and his smell was invading her senses and the beat was pumping through her veins.

Suddenly, Nate spun her around and she found him grabbing her hands and wrapping them around her body, whilst moving to the sensual beat. Signe turned her head up and rested it in his neck, briefly shutting her eyes and letting the beat of the music guide her. When the song reached a feverish pitch, she opened her eyes and let go of Nate’s hands, choosing to wrap them around his neck as she started sliding down as low as she could and back up, letting her hands stay in contact the whole way. She hoped, for one moment, that she was driving him as crazy as he was driving her crazy.

(Hope it’s okay I godmoded Nate a little bit to get things moving)

Each time Signe made a sound of pleasure or shivered in gratification Nate crumpled her dress in an effort to restrain his sudden and powerful reaction. He didn’t know how long he could hold out for but however long it was it was slowly shortening at every movement of Signe’s body.

Nate didn’t know what he was feeling for Signe but he did know that he couldn’t let her go, they had to part tonight with an understanding; before he could properly think of what that understanding would be Signe had put her free arm around his neck her gaze trained on his. For all he knew they were alone and that was partly true, Paige and Christy had wisely chosen to dance with a few eager guys.

Kissing Signe was like kissing pure sex, she was warm and moist and Nate released a low moan at their contact. Nothing compared to her kisses and Nate didn’t know how was going to live without her if she decided to discard him like last nights dinner. For the first time in his life he was tasting just a small portion of what his brother was feeling for Scarlet Brice; Nate berated himself for all the teasing he’d participated when it came to his brother’s obsession to his ex-Charms Professor.

“You consume me like a fire consumes would consume the world if we never stopped it,” Signe whispered over his lips, Nate didn’t know what to think, all he could do was feel a glorious sensation that was beginning to fill the pit of his stomach. He aloud himself to be pulled closer to Signe’s lips; crashing his on hers Nate plunged his tongue deep into the folds of her mouth reveling on the hot sensation. He groaned and slowed his hips to grind hard against hers, imitating what he hoped to do to her later. The feel of her beneath his hands was burning his flesh, he couldn’t help but think that if they continued they’d combust. A week had been far to long to have Signe beneath him and he intended to rectify that for as long as she’d have him.

Soft kisses were pressed into his jawline, neck and finally to his collarbone where her mark was now fading. Before he knew what was happening she was remarking him he threw his head back in euphoria as thousands of nerves in his shoulder were suddenly stimulated. He kept his head back as she kissed her way back up to his lips, as she scratched his stomach hard he snapped his head back to her face and bit her lip as he kissed her with force.

Knowing that kissing her for much longer would send him over the edge Nate turned Signe around before grabbing her hands and wrapping them around her body, the music still pumping hard through their shared body contact. As Signe’s head leaned back to rest on his shoulder Nate began to slowly kiss her neck being sure to be gentle; the music seemed to transport them out of the night club and into their own little world, he smiled at the thought.

As the music climaxed so did Nate’s hearts as Signe turned around to face him; her arms wrapped around his neck she slid down his body and then back up. Nate closed his eyes, attempting to control the urge to grip her hair to control her movements. His breath came out hard and fast, “Fuck,” he breathed before dragging her up to kiss her his tongue moving savagely as he claimed her lips just as the song ended. While the DJ started to put a new disk in Nate grabbed Signe’s hand and dragged her back to their table. He sat her down next to him being sure to grip her close and keep her far away from Carter; he handed her his second drink which was half empty and lit a new cigarette. He took a drag before kissing her full on the lips breathing his drag into her mouth. He leaned back and smirked knowing that he was getting to her just like she was getting to him.

Finally he turned his attention to Carter and Jaiden, he frowned only slightly as he noticed Jaiden’s pale appearance and Carter’s interest. “What’s up with Jaiden?” Nate whispered in Signe’s ear being sure to let his lips linger.

OOC it’s okay, I don’t think I’ve moved it on very much but hopefully you can work something out with what I’ve posted.

The music was surrounding them and Si felt like they were the only two people in the room. His kisses were addictive as was his touch. When the DJ picked a new disk, Signe was pulled along in a daze by Nate back to the seats and and she sat down next to him, slowly coming out of it as he pulled her close.

She thanked him quietly and drank deeply feeling thirsty all of a sudden. She leaned into his embrace and looked up him. Watching him take a drag of his cigarette she marvelled at how he had such strong lips that wrapped around the base and Si had flashes of her putting her fingers in chocolate and having Nate lick them off. Before she got too carried away, Nate started kissing her full on the lips and she sucked in his drag. Her fingers clenched his shirt as she tried not to get lost again in the sensations he brought out in her. When he pulled back, she raised her eyes slowly to his and glared whilst he smirked down at her.

He was really starting to pick out just what drew her crazy and she wondered if it was wise for her to stay near him anymore. She was afraid that if she really let him in, then she’d get hurt again just like her very first love destroyed her heart. She shuddered slightly and looked away feeling confliction rise in her about the situation. Clearly, though, sitting right next to Nate and having these thoughts meant she wouldn’t be able to figure them out anytime soon.

When Nate voiced his question about Jaiden, she could feel his lingering lips and her eyes fluttered shut briefly. Opening them, Si looked at her friend and saw her to be resting her head in Carter’s arms. She looked very pale and Si could see she was shaking slightly, which was very strange. Jaiden seemed fine today with no signs of an incoming sickness. Si frowned and shrugged. “I don’t know,” she whispered back, “But I better go and check on her. She looks like she’s about to faint.” Turning her head, she placed her hands on either side of Nate’s faced and kissed him softly. It seemed their earlier game had been won by him, although Si felt like she herself had won it instead. “I’ll be right back.” Leaning into his ear, she whispered “And don’t let that Paige girl touch you or I’ll have her head.” Pulling back, she stared at Nate before walking over to Jaiden and sliding into the space on the either side of her best friend.

Touching her friend’s shoulder, Signe leant in and swept the hair off Jaiden’s face. “Hey,” she said quietly, “You don’t look very well. Do you want me to take you home?” Jaiden’s eyes, looking very dazed flickered to Signe’s own and she nodded weakly. She didn’t know how it happened but from the moment she stepped into the club, she started feeling more and more ill. A pounding headache had hit her and she felt like her body was on fire. Her hands were shaking and she couldn’t stand the pounding beat of the music any longer.

When Carter came over, Jaiden welcomed his arms around her and she tried to shut her eyes and try to will it away but it only got worse. She didn’t want to ruin her friend’s night by leaving early but it seemed her sickness had caught the concern of Signe; and once it caught on, Jai knew she couldn’t lie about not wanting to go home early anymore. She was too ill to pass it off as a passing headache.

Signe felt the forehead of Jaiden and swore under her breath. “Fuck me, you’re burning up Jaiden.” Si started feeling the side of Jaiden’s face and neck and then chest and knew that if her friend didn’t get out of her soon, they’d have a massive crisis on their hands.

A light bead of sweat was appearing on Jaiden’s face and her shaking was getting worse and Signe told Carter to hold her whilst she went and told Nate what was going on. Quickly moving back to Nate, she leaned down to him and started talking quickly into his ear so he could hear her clearly. “Nate, I’m so sorry but I have to take Jaiden home. She’s fallen ill and if I don’t do something about it soon, I have a feeling she might faint and will have to go to St. Mungos which I think is the last thing she wants.” Si started feeling dread brewing at the bottom of her stomach. She had never seen Jaiden like this before. “Carter will help me take her home because I can’t carry her. I hope you understand,” Si said and kissed his cheek softly, “And I hope you enjoy the rest of your night with those girls...” she trailed off and spun on her heels so he couldn’t see how much it pained her to say that.

Nate watched Signe closely as she drank from his drink, he felt perverse pleasure knowing that he’d been drinking from that drink no more than a few minutes before. She thanked him and he thought his world would crash around his head, everything that evening had been building up and just two simple words seem to tip him over the edge; he felt his heart contract and he kissed her before turning away from her looking for something to say to distract himself.


“What’s up with Jaiden?” he whispered in Signe’s ear letting his lips linger. Signe’s eyes fluttered before she registered his question, she frowned and shrugged.

“I don’t know. But I better go and check on her. She looks like she’s about to faint.” The tug Nate had felt before when he’d looked at Jaiden tugged again, stronger this time. He frowned, something was seriously wrong with him, he needed to stop this weakness before it totally consumed him. “I’ll be right back. And don’t let that Paige girl touch you or I’ll have her head.” Nate smirked up at Signe glad at her change of subject.

“I’ll try to keep my hands off her but I can’t promise you that she won’t,” he gave her a deep look that clearly told her he wouldn’t be letting anyone touch him other than her.

Turning his face away from Signe as she went to attend to her friend Nate concentrated on the unusual tugging that was occurring in his heart strings. He didn’t understand it at all, it seemed to intensify whenever Jaiden was around or when she was with Seth. There was something dark though that was lurking throughout the feeling, he couldn’t put his finger on it but it felt familiar like he’d felt it before when he jolly well knew he hadn’t. Pushing his musings aside he took a long drag of his cigarette before he noticed Signe making her way over to him. He started to smile until he saw her face, it was worried.

“What is it?” he said, his voice holding layers of concern, confusion and more prominent was the sound of possession; he wouldn’t let anything happen to Signe or Jaiden for that matter if he could help it, that was just the kind of guy he was.

“Nate, I’m so sorry but I have to take Jaiden home. She’s fallen ill and if I don’t do something about it soon, I have a feeling she might faint and will have to go to St. Mungos which I think is the last thing she wants,” Signe said. “Carter will help me take her home because I can’t carry her. I hope you understand,” she said and kissed his cheek softly. “And I hope you enjoy the rest of your night with those girls...” Nate frowned as she turned around, he knew what she said was serious and it wasn’t just an excuse to leave his company. He stood up instantly and spun Signe around before she could walk away.

“I’ll take you and Jaiden home,” he said as he took a final drag of his cigarette and snuffed it out on the table, downing his drink he guided her over towards Jaiden and Carter. He wouldn’t brook any refusals. “You can go now,” he said to Carter, not giving him a chance to reply he lifted Jaiden off her feet and headed for the door. Paige and Christy nodded to Nate who nodded back, they understood that they’d have to find their own way home.

“Don’t talk,” he whispered to a feverish Jaiden as they finally made it out the door and into the fresh air. His heart strings were doing that pulling thing again and he wasn’t very happy about it, his face was hard and determined. He didn’t look at Jaiden once.

“Signe,” he said turning to face her, “hold on to my arm, I’ll apparate you both,” his eyes had closed off suddenly, everything was shut down tight. Nate didn’t bother with asking for directions he wouldn’t be apparating to Jaiden or Signe’s house, he decided that he’d take both girls back to his house where he could check on them himself. Waiting until Signe had put her hand on his arm he twisted his leg and suddenly they’d apparated, directly into Nate’s room. Ignoring Signe, Nate gently laid Jaiden on his rumpled sheets. Women’s lingerie hung from his bed posts and across the floor, almost every available space was covered by empty drinks and finished cigarettes. Nate tugged at a silk cord by his bed before taking off his coat and throwing it on the floor. Fixing a drink and pouring in a bright red liquid from a miniature crystal bottle that had come from his side table, he sat down beside Jaiden and lifted her head gently before feeding her the drink. Her face took on a little more colour, once Nate was happy with her colour he turned to face the servant that had just entered the room.

“Owl Miss Edwards’ Aunt and let her know that Jaiden will be home within the hour.”

“Yes Master Evens,” the servant bowed before closing the door behind him. Nate raked a hand through his hand before getting up from the bed and kissing Signe quickly. “Watch her, I’m going to get changed,” he said as he walked passed her into the large walk in wardrobe.

He pealed off his shirt as he walked through the door and unbuckled his pants before he disappeared.

OOC I hope my GM is okay, let me know if you want me to change anything.

“I’ll try to keep my hands off her but I can’t promise you that she won’t,” Nate said and Signe could only sigh in acknowledgement. That girl was going to be a pain in the arse and the fact that she was betrothed to him only made it worse.

His voice held concern when she explained the situation and Signe dearly wished she could stay with him, more so after hearing his voice. The possession underlying it gave her a thrill of excitement amongst all the concern and Si felt slightly guilty that she was feeling like this whilst her friend was falling more and more ill.

She didn’t expect Nate to spin her back around to him and she questioned him with her eyes. When he said he’d take them home, she couldn’t help but feel it was in part to do with Carter. And she was right. Carter could see that Nate wouldn’t take his refusal well, so he let Nate take Jaiden who was, by now falling in and out of consciousness and decided he’d call it a night and head home. Signe smiled gently down at him and kissed his cheek. “Thanks for looking after Jaiden and I’m sorry about earlier.” Carter only smiled at her and picking up his jacket he headed out.

Jaiden herself was starting to feel like she was falling away into a dark hole with no way out, but felt slightly better when Nate picked her up, which was strange. The fresh air outside helped her regain a bit of control but she still felt very weak.

Signe followed closely behind, concern etched on her face for Jaiden. When Nate commanded that she held his arm, she obliged wanting to find a bed for Jaiden as fast as possible. When arriving at the location, she noticed it was the Evens Estate and blinked in surprise. “Why are we here?” She said dumbly. “Actually, never mind.” She muttered following Nate. She was oblivious to their surroundings as she was only concerned now for her friend. Si watched Nate gently lay Jaiden onto a bed and watched, worried, as he poured red liquid down her throat. She sighed in relief as some colour returned and Jaiden herself felt her shivers go away.

Jaiden felt tired and exhausted, but the potion had done something to make her feel slightly better than before. She started to fall asleep, feeling like she couldn’t stay awake but before she passed out, Jaiden softly issued a ‘Thank you’ to Nate.

Signe was happy her best friend looked better. When Nate kissed her quickly, she kissed him back and watched him as he walked into a large wardrobe. Feeling unsure as to what she could do now that it was just her and Nate, pretty much alone with a sleeping Jaiden, Signe decided to take her shoes off and climb onto the large bed. She curled up against the back of the bed and placed Jaiden’s head gently into her lap. She stroked her hair away which was all ruined as it had been sticking to her face for the past twenty minutes and started humming a soft tune. She was grateful that things ended up well and not in a disaster.

Once Nate had changed into a comfortably pair of slacks he walked back into his bedroom a fresh drink in his hand. His hand froze as he began to take a drink, Signe was curled around Jaiden in his bed, the rumpled sheets now slightly put to rights. One things was wrong though Nate thought and he grimaced at the feminine lingerie hanging around his room; shrugging his shoulders he downed his drink and headed over to his black ivory desk.

Sitting down he penned a short note to both Theodore, Jaiden’s Aunt and the servants informing them that there would be two more for breakfast in the morning and that Jaiden wouldn’t be going home that night. He pulled the bell to summon a servant who instantly appeared.

“Deal with this,” he said handing over the three notes, “I presume you haven’t contacted Jaiden’s Aunt?” he asked, a small smile playing on his lips; the servants generally waited before sending missives out when it came to Nate’s dates.

Turning back to the two girls on his bed Nate looked down at his half naked body, “best not,” he said to himself before he made himself comfortably on the plush couch opposite his bed. Closing his eyes he dreamed of mostly of Signe until early into the morning when a strange a familiar vision floated through his mind of a blonde beauty leaning over a desk in a small and cramped office. Nate frowned in his dream as the strange dark undertone that he’d felt tugging on his heart was felt again.

His dream far from actually being a dream was a...

vision.
