Yeah yeah yeah, you know me. Throw Gabrielle or Fleur in there, and I'm a sucker. -_-

Blaise knew better.

He'd been raised by Francesca Zabini, the most infamous black widow of the twentieth century. He knew all the signs of a strike; rich, older man dies shortly after marrying a young, nubile beauty, leaving her all his money. His mother had done it seven bloody times and managed to escape suspicion.

He knew better than to take a second glance at Gabrielle Delacour. She wasn't a black widow; none of her past consorts had died suddenly (though he had no desire to be the first to do so), but each paramour left her Gringotts account considerably fuller than the last.

Her Italian villa in Tuscany? Courtesy of Giovanni san Marco.

The penthouse flat on Fifth Avenue in New York City? Jeremiah Rockefeller had insisted she keep it.

She practically glittered when she moved from the diamonds that adorned her slender wrist and delicate earlobes. The sapphire at her neck matched her deep blue eyes, and her lips were the same color as her ruby ring.

All in all, Blaise certainly knew better.

That didn't mean he cared.

He quite liked the way she felt pressed up against him, those red lips slanted against his own. She would wrap her leg around his and let the tip of her stiletto heel press into his flesh; he never said so aloud, but the slight tinge of pain with his pleasure made him randy beyond belief. He liked it when her gaze flashed in warning before she raked her teeth over his neck.

When she reached for him-- somewhere? Anywhere, really-- and dug her nails into his back, he couldn't say no. Blaise Zabini, the seducer of Slytherin House, reduced to a complaint boytoy by a leggy blonde in Louboutins; how his friends would laugh. But they could smirk and snicker all they liked-- none of them had Gabrielle Delacour in their beds.

(And none of them would, if he had his way).

She was beautiful. Bewitching, with a slight otherworldly aura that spoke to her veela heritage. She didn't have to turn on her charm like other witches; it was never off. She could walk into a room and have every male clamoring for her attention, if she liked-- which she usually did.

All Blaise knew (besides that he knew better) was that Gabrielle was hell on heels, six feet of seductive, curvaceous woman.

And she was coming for him.

Ooo. This was exactly what I was looking for! I really like that you decided to do it from Blaise's point of view, and the angle you took in comparing Gabrielle and her trail of men with Blaise's mother, an her similar trail of men.

Blaise really did know better :D

Great job, Leigh! Thanks so much for taking this on!

Merci, Elle! I wrote part of a draft from Gabrielle's POV, but it just didn't work as well from telling it as Blaise's did. Probably because the song lends itself well to a man reflecting about a woman.

And yes, he totally did.

Glad you liked it! *SMOOSH* (As if I could ignore a Gabrielle prompt? :P)

Nice. Blaise would be a good foil for little miss Delacour and her Louboutins. Six feet of trollop-y goodness. ;D

I've said this before but I really enjoy your Gabby. And I think of the pairings she's been in, this is my fave. :D
