At work I pay Alastor Moody a visit. He works for Orion, works with the dead.
“Ms. Black, you should be in here” he says when he sees me.
“Moody, you are spending too much time with the dead. It’s ruining your manners”
“What do you want”
“Money, power, the perfect little black dress. I hear you have a body”
“It is a morgue” I look at him “I assume you mean the Meadowes girl” I reach out for a binder I assume is Regulus first kills binder with pictures and information, Moody stops me.
“Relax, I work for the district attorney's office, remember?”
“As a paid intern”
“Who works for her uncle”
I flip through the papers “Dorcas Meadowes, seventeen. So much sadder when they die young, too much of a good time?”
“Her liver was excised. Sound like a good time to you?”
“Show me the body.”
“You gotta be kidding me”
“I’m not squeamish, promise. I’ve seen more dead bodies than most” I turn to a more flirty tone.
He sighs and leads me over to the bodies and pulls one out. I pull the thing there to cover the body and see a gray looking corpse covered in cuts. This is definitely a monsters doing.
I simply say “she still has blood in her veins”
“I swear it’s happening again, I saw bodies like this when I first started. Corpses ripped open, organs missing. You’re too young to remember that Savannah. Have you seen enough? I gotta get this written up and-”
“Moody” I say, using my power that I’m the only in the family who has. With it I can make them believe anything “It was a head injury, there’s no sign of anything monstrous, all her organs are intact. She had a blood alcohol level of 0.08. She fell, hit her head. Very tragic accident”
“Yes, clearly” Moody replies in a trance “an accident”
“Maybe you shouldn't drink bourbon out of a thermos and pretend it’s ice tea. It’s making you sloppy” Moody looks kind of worried “don’t worry, I won't tell a soul.”
I walk back to Moody’s desk and grab Meadowes binder, then walk out. I go to Orions office and knock on the door and walk in.
“Hey Orion”
“Hi. How is the file organizing going?”
“Finished two days ago. I payed a visit to Moody down at county, not that he’ll remember”
“No one asked you to do that. I was taking care of it”
“He was about to start blabbering about monsters being back in Savannah. I was trying to help” I know I shouldn’t have but I did but really its hard to help anyone in this family.
“Well the problem with your ‘help’, Bellatrix, is that your talent is uncharted territory”
“Your mother don't have it, your father don’t have it, and until we understand why you have it and your sisters and cousins don't, we have asked you not to use it. Return the file now.”
“I can’t believe you would compare anything about me to Andromeda and Sirius. You don’t see me collecting dead squirrels just so I have something to play with. Besides you should be thanking me. Our Regina did quite the number on poor Dorcas”
“Head wound, I head”
“Did you hear she ripped out the girl's liver? Maybe your baby girl doesn’t take after you as much as you thought”
“Thank you, Bellatrix, you can go.”
“Great, I’m sure I can find something else to file, copy or erase”
I’m bored and eavesdropping on my aunt Walburga and my uncle Orion.
“...Regina left it at the party” Orion said, Regs left his phone at the party? That doesn’t sound like Regulus “a head wound. Why would Regina do that?”
“It was her first kill. So she probably got a little carried away” Walburga replied.
“This was more than carried away, Walburga. We don’t slaughter, we feed, so yeah. I’m scared”
“Well yeah”
“I’m scared because I don’t want Regina to turn out like him”
“Regina is nothing like him. Orion” Walburgas tone is sharp. Orion is an idiot for bringing Sirius up.
“Walburga I was just thinking-”
“NO. MY REGGIE IS NOTHING LIKE HIM OKAY?!”
Later I go to my favorite spot in town, the bar.
There he is a guy alone at the bar, my guy.
I make eye contact with him, he’s kinda cute. I ask the bartender to give the guy a Margarita and put it on my tab.
I watch the guy get it. I know I’m hot so this will work, it always works.
The guy slowly but surely makes his way to me.
“Hey, hottie” he then says. God not one of these again.
“Have you ever made out in the women's restroom?” I ask, making sure to put on a flirtatious tone.
“No, you” he replies, he’s about to go in for a kiss.
“Yea and would love to do it again, with you this time” I say and pull him into the bars women's restroom.
The second we get in there the guy pushes me against the wall. He doesn’t even ask. Way to get yourself killed my guy.
We make out for a bit, I start gaining the upper hand and push him into a stall.
I sit myself on top of him and we go at it again.
After a bit he starts pulling my top off.
I usually don’t let my victims get this far but this time is different. I know he’s gonna go for the whole thing now, I’ll just have to stop him before it’s too late.
I’m now sitting on him without my top on making out with him.
His kisses are wet and sloppy. He’s a really bad kisser, I wonder if he’s better in bed.
“You like that don’t you?” He then asks, what kind of question is that?
“Do you want me to be gentle?” I simply say.
“No, I want you to make it hurt, baby girl” I hate when people call me that so I’m not holding back.
I raise my head letting my fangs come out. Then go down aiming for his neck.
I bite down hard and slowly start drinking his blood as he says something along the lines of “ow”, “No”, “Wait”
I quickly cover his mouth with my hand.
When I’m done I pull back a tiny bit and lick the two deep holes my fangs created in his skin.
Then pull back and grab his head turning my powers on once again.
“This never happened.” I say and leave his side stepping out of the stall and reapply my lipstick.
I walk back into the bar.
