Title: A Well-Crafted Spell is like Catnip
Character(s): Bellatrix Lestrange
Rating: PG
Challenge(s): #258, Finesse
Word count: 100
She tries not to visit the vault too often, tries to ration the sensation, but Bellatrix has never been much for restraint.
Withdrawing money is an excuse; her real purpose waits in darkness.
She’s covered it under a black velvet cloth, but she can still feel it. The very essence of her lord fills the air around her, Bellatrix can barely breathe -- her heart quickens.
Carefully, she reaches out to trace the rim of the cup with one green-painted fingernail. The pure craftsmanship of the spell vibrates through her.
If she’s still, she can feel his soul in hers.
