Carmen was in the library. It was late and the fire was close to going out. Carmen would head to bed when it finally died. As it was, she sat in one of the old wore leather high back chairs and and read. When she had arrived here, there really was not much that interested her in this room though she did love to read. Carmen had all the lights in this room dimmed except for the lamp on the table to her left.
She sat with her legs tucked under her and leaning to the side. She was dressed in a white sleeveless summer dress. It was just warm enough in the manor for her to be comfortable. There was movement in the house and Carmen assumed it was her leader. He had not wanted to bother with her much now unless it was to teach her something.
That thought did hurt her but really, what could she expect? There were more important matters on his mind. She sighed now and tried to go back to her book. She was reading a new novel by a upcoming witch in the wizarding world. She had bought quite a few books in Diagon Alley when she was able to get out. She had agreed to give him quite a bit of control over her when all this had started. But she followed his rules for the most part. Carmen sighed once more and then stood.
She stretched with book still in hand and then placed the book on the table and headed out of the room. From a hallway table, she took up her pack of cigarettes and took one from the package. Carmen headed for the front door. Smoking was not permitted in the house. That was fine. She needed some fresh air anyways. Her hair had been down and now Carmen took her wand and with a few words, her hair was up out of her face and piled on the back of her head.
Carmen opened the door and gasped to see someone standing on the porch before her. Carmen regained her posture and then looked up at him. Another Deatheater she assumed. She excused herself and then stepped past him and onto the porch. She did not know what he had wanted but he could enter if he was looking for Voldemort or if he fancied a smoke, he could join her. She glanced at him again as she lit the cigarette with her wand tip. Cute for sure. She would not ay as much however. Not here at least.

It was late, but a very warm evening. Eric sat in his room and was reading a book a very interesting one at that and then remembered he had a private meeting with Voldamort tonight and would possibly be late and that was never a good thing.
He grabbed his long black leather trench coat and picked up his ciggaretts off of the endtable by his bed and picked up his glass and finished his last sip of brandy and headed out the door. He ran and ran until he got close to the house where they always met. "There is no full moon out tonight" he pondered to himself. "Maybe i'll have one more smoke before I go in there" he pondered to himself.
Now walking up to the house and getting himself together, he reached inside his coat pocket and opened his ciggarette case which was gold and had his name ingraved in it with a beautiful outer design, and as he aproached just outside the door it opened before his eyes and automatically he reached for his wand.
There right before him was this woman, and he slowly returned his wand to his pocket and glanced at the woman quickly. He looked at her again and noticed that she was leaning up against the wall and looked rather good to him, but what woman didn't, but this one intrequed him somehow. He noticed that she was looking rather cute lighting her ciggarette with the tip of her wand and her hair was up ever so nice with her eyes on him. Eric thought to himself that he might aswell stand out there and have a smoke to since that is what he was going to do anyways. He was patting everywhere on his jacket to use that matching lighter to his ciggarette case but he forgot it on his nightstand.
" Have a light?", he said to her in a scotish raspy tone, looking at her mesmerizing face."She is georgous" he thought to himself. He couldn't help but make a bit of small talk. "Why are you out here so late this time of night" he asked her while he took a puff of his ciggarette.

When he had pulled out his wand, Carmen had been a tad bit unnerved. But it was not like she could not handle her own. Now however, the wand was away and when he asked her for a light, Carmen recast the fire charm with her one and held it towards him. She moved now to sit on the railing that lined the porch one leg came up to brace herself against on of the supports. She was sufficiently covered so all was good. She did still worry about The Dark Lord coming out and how this may look to him but she needed a little human contact.
"Why are you out here so late this time of night" He asked her now and Carmen shrugged silently and then after a moment she said "I'm smoking." She gave a small grin. Carmen brought her cigarette to her lips and inhaled deeply. "I was alone and bored. I should be in bed but I am just not tired yet." She shrugged now. "So why are you here?"
She neglected to tell him that she was very rarely permitted to leave the grounds. Carmen was getting to the point that she wanted to get away. She wanted out of his clutches. Yet she had no way to do that. Where could she go? There was a nice breeze out here and it felt good to get out of the house.

Eric reached over as Carmen lit the end of her wand and he put his smoke on her wand and puffed lightly as he glanced up at her. He couldn't help but notice how good she looked when she leaned up against the porch, no woman had this type of affect on him.
Why are you out here so late this time of night" He asked her now and Carmen shrugged silently and then after a moment she said "I'm smoking." She gave a small grin. Carmen brought her cigarette to her lips and inhaled deeply. "I was alone and bored. I should be in bed but I am just not tired yet." She shrugged now. "So why are you here?"
He looked at her while taking another drag of his half a smoke," I have a private meeting with Voldomort, he wanted to talk to me about something". He looked down at the ground as he was talking to her and looked back up again at her pretty face.
"Do you like to read?" he asked her. "A good book can sometimes make me groggy and a nice stiff drink of brandy, then I'm out like a light", he laughed a bit.
He couldn't help but notice a bit of saddness in her face."I wonder what's going on with this one" he thought to himself. It sounds as if she is restrained in someway or someone has complete control over her. He moved more closer to her has he took another drag of his smoke.
"I have to go in and talk to Voldamort now" as he threw his ciggarette on the ground and stepped on the butt. "Where are you going to be in about a half an hour" he said to her in his sexy raspy voice. " I have something I would like to show you".
There was a noise and it woke Eric up for a second. "I better get in there", he said to her. "If your out here when I'm done GREAT, but if your not ..then another time then?? he told her. He smiled and gave her a wink and opened the door to voldamorts house.

Carmen was silent as he said that he had a meeting with the Dark Lord she had figured as much. Though it was a little shocking that he had called the Dark Lord 'Voldemort'. Most did not have that kind of nerve. "Do you like to read?" He asked her catching Carmen off guard. "A good book can sometimes make me groggy and a nice stiff drink of brandy, then I'm out like a light." Carmen gazed up at him silently as he laughed and then she smiled again. Before she could speak, he went on.
"I have to go in and talk to Voldemort now" She watched as he tossed his butt to the floor and put it out. She would have to get rid of it before the Dark Lord saw it. She glanced at the butt once more and then stood. "Where are you going to be in about a half an hour? I have something I would like to show you". Something to show her? Well now she was intrigued.
As he was leaving to go inside, Carmen finally spoke up. "Umm," She said softly. "I may not be out here but check the library." She moved to the door and then pointed down the hallway. "What do you have to show me." She asked stepping inside the house once more. She was curious. Carmen did not fear this man but if he meant to hurt her, he would be a fool to do it here with the Dark Lord in the manor.
When he had left her, Carmen moved back outside to whisk the burnt out cigarette away. She then headed back to the library and add a few more logs to the fire. She took up her book once more and then settled back down into her chair in much the same position she was in before.
(Don't god mode Voldemort. Just maybe say that the meeting went well and then thats it)

"Wheww" Eric thought to himself as he closed Voldamorts door to his room after their meeting was over. "Glad that's over". He quickly walked down the low lighted hallway to go look for the girl he was talking to outside before his meeting with "you know who".
He quickly got to the front door and then as he grabbed the door knob he remembered her saying she may be in the library since it was late. He opened the door just a little and peeked out up towards the darkend sky just to make sure the moon wasn't full. A sigh of relief came to him as he closed the door and headed back towards the Library where she said she would be.
He got to the entrance and looked quickly right and then to the left, and then he saw her just sitting there reading her book by the fire with her legs over the one arm of the chair. " She looks so beautiful by the fires glow" he thought to himself. She had quite an effect on him, he couldn't stop thinking about her even in the meeting with "you know who".
There was a flower in a vase on one of the tables behind where she was sitting. He went over and plucked just one pretty pink flower out of the vase and looked around to make sure someone didn't notice. He then walked behind her chair and presented the flower to her by wrapping his arm around her completely, and then made eye contact.
"I would like to take you out and show you something" he said to her in his raspy scottish yet sexy voice. "If your still interested of course" he asked.

Carmen had not heard anyone enter the library. She had been so engrossed in the book and her intent on finishing it tonight. Some time had gone by and Carmen had assumed a while ago that he had left having forgotten about her. She sighed and shifted When the arms came around her, Carmen jumped slightly and then let out a small gasp.
She swallowed hard and then looked at the flower before turning her head to meet his dark eyes. Carmen smiled softly. "Thank you." She told him and took the flower. "I would like to take you out and show you something" He asked her and Carmen's smile grew. What was it about this man that made her feel so interesting? Was it that she actually found something different about him or that he was just paying attention to her?
"If your still interested of course" He added and Carmen shrugged. "I'm still interested." She told him. His arms were still around her and Carmen's own hand came up to rest on one of his arms. She rubbed the arm gently before taking the flower and then stood. "what were your plans?" She asked him turning to face him now. She was excited about being able to go out somewhere. "Where did you want to go?" Anywhere would be fine with her.

Eric was calm and cool of course when he saw how much she wanted to be with him for the evening. He still needed to figure out what it was about her that brought such excitement in him.
"Where did you want to go?" she asked him with intensity. He grabbed her arm and looked at her straight in the eye's "Here"he said with excitement all over his face, and before you knew it they were gone, he apporated them to his home in Greyhome Scottand.
Greyhome was a beautiful yet a romantic place. One of the best in Scottland. He took them straight to a very scottish pub down in the alley's in Greyhome. This place was a hotspot.
There were people outside laughing and cheering and smashing their glasses together and singing. It was a wonderful and happy atmosphere.
Eric stepped in front of her holding her around the waist and opened the door, and looked back at her " After you, my lady" he said in his raspy scottish accent.
The music was catchy, and everyone was dancing and carying on about. It brought a smile on his face as he entered into this familiar place. "Let's get a drink shall we?" he asked her as he steered her over to the bar in this amazing scottish pub.

When Eric took Carmen's arm, she was not sure what to expect. But then they Apparited and Carmen was crushed up against him. It was a thigh feeling that traveled over her body and then it was gone. When she stepped away from him, they were standing in an alleyway. Carmen looked around for a moment. Well...it was a good thing she had been wearing shoes in the house or she would be barefoot now.
As they neared the entrance to one of the establishment here, Carmen took in the drunken happy people with a smile. She stood still as Eric stepped around her. His arm felt good around her waist. Strong and protective. "After you, my lady" He told her and Carmen stepped into the din.
She instantly liked it here. The music was fun and the place was obviously popular. Carmen was almost instantly noticed by the men here of course. She grinned softly. The dress she wore showed a bit of skin and she reached up to release her hair from behind her head so that it fell over her shoulders softly. What with her long legs made even longer by the heels and her nature. She was sexy...she knew it.
"Let's get a drink shall we?" He asked and Carmen let herself be brought to the bar where the men already there stepped aside to let her in. The bartender did not take long to move towards the two and Carmen ordered a fire whiskey. She took the drink and then sipped at it. She turned to Eric when he had ordered as well and smiled up at him. "Good choice." she told him.

As he steered her to the bar to get a drink, the bartender did not take long to move towards the two and Carmen ordered a fire whiskey. She took the drink and then sipped at it. She turned to Eric when he had ordered as well and smiled up at him. "Good choice." she told him.
Oh how Eric loved his brandy on the rocks. " Thanks" he said. "Do you like brandy?" he asked her. He noticed that she was getting more comfortable as she was taking her hair down and noticing all the men there looking at her. She was very beautiful, any man in their right mind would stare at her a bit...well alot.
Eric never liked the feeling of jelousy, I guess that's why he stayed clear of relationships, but Carmen seemed to have put him back in that field. He grabbed her and asked," Would you like to dance Carmen?" as he bowed to her and then looked back up at her. "I'm a pretty good dancer" and smiled at her. He than quickly grabbed her again with their drinks in hand and moved about on the dance floor.
They were having a great time moving about around the floor together. Then this man, out of no where steps in between them and interupts there dancing. The man put his hand on Eric's shoulder and asked, "May I take the lady for a spin" he lookes at Carmen and thinks thinks to himself quickly " Don't let her see your jelous side..it's only 1 dance". He knodded to the man as if to say sure just this once.
He went and leaned on the bar ,watching them dance together and Eric didn't like it one bit. He quickly drank his brandy and then ordered another. As he turned around he noticed the man's hand was now moving and made it's way down to her ass, and the man's hands grabbed and then clenched it ever so tight.
Eric imediatly threw his drink down to the floor, and could feel this rage filling up inside him. The feeling that Eric hated when he was about to turn. He quickly dashed to the man with his fangs starting to show and his eyes red as blood and said. "You had better remove those hands from my girl's ass" he said in a dark low growl. The man so drunk didn't even notice Eric's tiny transformation and responded to him as if to say get out of here and or get a life.
Eric now furious, he growled loudly and grabbed the man and threw him against the pub walls and then stood up, and was beathing heavily.
Now everyone staring at him, Eric didn't realize that before he went on this journey that he forgot to look into the full moon aspect in the Scottland area. Not only did his anger bring it out of him...but there was now a full moon approaching in Greyhome.

When he asked her if she liked Brandy, Carmen shrugged. "Not really." She told him softly. When he asked her to dance, Carmen's smile was radiating. She loved to dance. It was something she had done all of her life when she had the chance. She blushed when he bowed to her and the giggled like a young girl. She walked with him onto the dance floor with out even having a chance to put down her drink. Holding her drink carefully, Carmen moved with him amongst the other people who had had the same idea.
She was having fun for the first time in a while. Carmen smiled and then laughed slightly. Her free hand moved to run gently over his chest. That is when they were interrupted. Carmen frowned as they stopped dancing. "May I take the lady for a spin" Carmen raised one eyebrow. Did people really walk up to someone and ask that anymore?? She glanced coolly at the drunk man and when Eric nodded to him she looked surprised.
Carmen watched Eric walk away and was a little miffed. The drunk man stepped up to her with a lopsided grin. He but his arms around her and Carmen cringed slightly. The man smelt of alcohol and stale smoke. She stood as far away from him until the man yanked her forward and against him. The movement was so sudden that Carmen's drink sloshed out of the glass and onto the floor. She stared to curse and her eyes narrowed. That was when his hands clamped down on her rear. His grip was tight and Carmen yelped slightly. Her free hand tried to push him away but the man lowered his face towards her and she arched her head back.
There were people who paused their own dancing to watch. "Get off me." Carmen growled. Carmen did not have time to say anymore. Suddenly Eric was there. She looked up at him and jumped in shock. But now it was about Eric. It was not his anger but his face. Carmen took in the red eyes and the teeth. What was he? "You had better remove those hands from my girl's ass" He told the drunk and even through her shock, her mind registered his words. His girl?? When did that happen and where had she been? But at the same time it made her heart beat a little faster.
That though was gone however when the man was torn from her knocking Carmen a little off balance. The glass was knocked from her hand now and it shattered on the floor. Carmen stumbled a bit and then took a step away from Eric surprised at his strength. Carmen was breathing heavily and she trembled slightly. She was afraid that he would turn his anger on her.

Eric had to gain himself and quick. He still has a hard time controling his transformations, expecially when he is upset or angry. As he knocked the drunk against the pub walls, he saw the man just lye there. He looked very unconcious. He knew in his mind that this was going to be trouble. He looked at carmen, while his eyes still red and fangs slightly showing, he saw somewhat fear in the girl.
Carmen was breathing heavily and she trembled slightly. She was afraid that he would turn his anger on her. He growled in a low tone at her " We need to go". He was breathing so heavy. He could feel this curse coursing through his veins and nothing was stopping it. He knew it was time to leave because if he didn't it was going to be nothing but a bloodbath in here....even Carmen would be in great danger.
"Carmen Now!!!", he said to her as his nails were growing larger, his hair was growing longer and his face was slightly changing to a wolf's like appearance. He looked at her once, he had to go now, there was just no more time. He than in a blink of an eye dissaparated himself back to infront of Voldamorts Home....with no Carmen.
He crouched to the ground trying desperatly not to change. He hated it...he loathed it. He was alomost rolling with pain, and then his face started goinng back to normal shape, his eyes were changing back to their normal color and his growling and heavy breathing slowed right down to normal. He was away from the situation....away from the anger.
He lied there crouched in the fetal postion for about 5 min. It was late and no one was in sight. He slowly got up and took a look around and noticed Carmen was no where to be seen. He had forgotten that he left her there. "Carmen!", he shouted as he turned his head around in a complete circle, not believing what he had done...left a poor woman there on her own".
Eric was completely drained...so drained that he didn't have the energy to apporate back to the pub and bring her back. He had to get back to Hogwarts to his flat and rest. He had no choice to do what he did. If he didn't then there could have been quite a few deaths. He knew he couldn't face her again, she would never forgive him for that. It was the lowest action any man could do to a woman. He knew that he would have to live with this for the rest of his life, and how much it will be regreated.

" We need to go". Eric told her but Carmen was frozen to the spot. She had seen a lot of things but this was not one of them. She was frightened for her own safety. "Carmen Now!!!" Eric snarled at her and Carmen jumped slightly. Then he was gone. Carmen could not believe that he had just Apparated in the middle of a muggle pub... Carmen could not believe that he had actually left her here in a country she had never even been in before...
Carmen looked around slowly in shock... What had just happened here? Carmen came to her sense fairly quickly and then hurried from the pub. She kept her eyes down and tried to avoid the muggles. Carmen was breathing heavily with her embarrassment and hot tears prickled her eyes and she hurried to the alleyway.
Within minutes, she was back at the manor. Carmen looked around the empty grounds and then slowly walked inside. As she entered, she heard footsteps above her. Carmen paused and then shook her head. That was it! She was done. Done with Voldemort, done with Eric, done with men... They were scum they cared about nothing. Carmen was moving out. She was getting her own place and she would never look back. Carmen had moved on.
