Title: What the Night Reveals Pairing: Bellatrix/Rodolphus Rating: R Warnings: none Summary: Rodolphus has a secret. Notes: I hope you like it.
Dark clouds gathered high in the night sky, shifting restlessly as though sensing the coming events but not wanting to bare witness. Beneath, the landscape stretched out in darkness forever, lush grass danced in the wind and the trees creaked and swayed.
But the soft calm was soon interrupted by a willowy form of a witch making her way across to a wizard who had stood unseen in the shadows till now. She knew the shadow that was in fact a man; he was Rodolphus Lestrange, her husband-to-be.
“Bellatrix,” he spoke smoothly as she approached.
Her eyes were wide when she looked up at him; he was so tall, so broad, so dangerous. “Rodolphus, you asked me to come,” she replied. “What did you want to show me?”
He grinned widely but there was no humor or joy in it. Instead it held a wicked, dark edge that sent excited shivers down her spine.
“Wait, my love.” He looked up at the sky and grinned again when the clouds began to part. “Soon we will be together in more ways then our upcoming nuptials could ever bring.”
The wind picked up and blew her long black hair around her face.
The clouds parted further and the light of the full moon broke through.
A cry of pain. A howl in the night. Bellatrix’s scream was lost in the wind. And they were together."
