Dante's Inferno

AN: I'm sorry I took so long to update, but RL caught up with me. I just found out that one of my best friends stole money from me, and I've been having a genuine rough time. However I am currently in Greece for studies so, things are starting to brighten up. I hope you enjoy this chapter and if not, tell me!!! =) MM


Chapter 2: Death and Seduction

Dante arched a curious eyebrow at the request, “Why are you looking for this boy? Has he wronged you in some way?” The lithe young man asked while lighting another cigarette, it didn't take long before he was shrouded in a thin veil of smoke.

“I am not aware of any wrongdoings that the boy might have committed, he is simply lost to his community. A community that would give a great deal to have him back.” Severus explained with his velvety voice.

“Why do you come to me? How can an insignificant club owner be of service?” Dante asked with a dangerous tone to his voice.

Severus shivered slightly, the atmosphere in the room had quickly changed and he sensed that this situation could turn ugly. The power that poured of Dante was intoxicating in its awesomeness. Severus cleared his throat and answered him with carefully chosen words, “I have heard that you know everything there is to know about what goes on in this city, I have exhausted all my other sources of intelligence and then I heard about you. It is of the utmost importance that we find out what has become of this boy, he has a significant role in our community's future. I... We would be eternally grateful for any assistance that you could offer us, I am begging of you… Do you know anything at all about Harry Potter?”

Dante let out a tired sigh, and drained his glass before answering the question, “Fine… I will tell you what I know, though I doubt you will be happy to hear any of it. I knew the boy you call Harry Potter, he was an angry and abused kid. He ran away from his abusers, and never spoke of any community. He was a close friend of mine and I tried my best to take care of him, however he was too damaged. He spiraled further and further out of control until he slit his wrists and bled to death in this very club, so I'm sorry to say that you will have to find some other boy to fill his “important part”.” The last part was snarled out.

“Merlin! What have we done?” Severus moaned out, Lily's child dead! The very child he had swore to protect.
“How long?” He did not even have to finish his sentence, it was understood…

“Harry has been dead for quite some time now, about 3 years or so…” Dante said with a flat voice.

“That is impossible! We have just started searching for him, this means that he knew all along! And to think that I thought that he was a spoiled brat. Abandoned by him own people, abused by his family.”

“You didn't know? Surely you knew about the abuse? You people left him there!” Dante screamed at the tall dark man.

“I Swear to you I didn't know! I always thought that he had a good life, schooling, training, friends, material goods everything a boy could want. I thought that running away was merely some kind of teenage rebellion.” Severus explained in a tired voice, while running his hand through his hair.

“Running away… What makes you think that a child would run away from a perfectly happy home? He was abandoned in a park as a small child, because his uncle not only beat him but raped him as well!” Dante tightened his grip on his glass, it gave a warning squeak before it cracked in his hands. He cursed while he began tidying himself up.

“My Gods! We deserve everything, I am sorry for taking up your time. I'm sorry for your loss, and I thank you for your help. If there is ever anything I can do for you let me know.” Severus told the powerful young man while he turned around to leave.”

“Wait!” A hoarse voice called out. “Spend the night with me, that will repay the favor. One night only, I know you want it.” Dante whispered into Severus ear with a sultry voice, Severus let out a small moan before he gave into the pleasurable sensation of Dante's sensual tongue in his ear…

***********

Severus woke up to an amazing feeling, he bucked his hips up towards the warm and wet cavern that engulfed his erection. It did not take long before Severus reached his completion with a hoarse scream. He lifted the duvet and stared right into a pair of wide green eyes, Dante had a crooked grin on his face as he lapped up the rest of Severus essence. Severus could hardly believe this, after an amazing night with the best sex he had ever had in his entire life he was woken up like this, with a blow job? Dante was amazing, and Severus knew he could fall hard and deep for the young man that was currently crawling up to rest his head on Severus chest. If he was to be perfectly honest, then Severus had probably fallen a bit already.

“Good morning” Dante cheerfully greeted Severus before giving him a mind blowing kiss, Severus could still taste himself in Dante's mouth.

Severus let out a groan after the kiss was finished, before answering with a hoarse “Good morning.”
The pair lay together in the bed in comfortable silence, before suddenly the door burst open and the pitter patter of small feet was heard in the bedroom. Dante froze before sitting up in the bed and saying, “Caspian Casimir Flaithri Damian Inferno! What have I said about coming to my room when I have visitors?” Severus sat up in the bed in shock, in front of the king size bed there was a small child, perhaps three years old, with black tussled hair and large emerald green eyes.

“I'm sowwy daddy, I have a bwad dweam.” Large silvery tears had pooled up in the wide emerald green eyes, Dante let out a sigh and opened his arms. The child quickly crawled onto the bed and threw himself in Dante's arms. The child began sobbing, and Dante immediately began rocking the child, while stroking his back, and crooning at the child.

“Shh... Ian what did you dream about?” Dante asked softly.

“Mama and the bwad men and the dwark woom” The child managed to whisper.
Dante let out a sigh and softly grabbed the chin of his son, before lifting his head so he met his eyes.

“Now, listen to me Ian. You know that nonno and I took care of the bad men, they can't hurt anybody anymore. Alright?” The child nodded, “Now, why don't you go to the kitchen and see if someone will make you breakfast. I'll be down in a little while kay?”

Caspian nodded before jumping of the bed and landing in a heap on the floor, "I'm 'kay!" He shouted before continuing on his route down the stairs and towards the kitchen, still in his pj's. Dante just shook his head at his son's antics and chuckled softly, before turning towards Severus who still seemed to be in shock. “I suppose, I should tell you some stuff about me. Since I was kind of hoping I would be able to see you again.”

Severus nodded dumbly, “Ehm... How old are you exactly?”

“ I am 17 years old, and that if you were wondering was my son, he is 3 years old. His mother was killed by a rival gang, we weren't really in love or anything. I still cared for her a great deal, she originally did not want keep Caspian and wanted to have an abortion. I refused and said that I would take care of them both, so she moved in with me and my gang and we had Caspian.”

Severus felt as if he had just taken a cold shower, “I am way too old for you, you could have been my son.” Severus stood from the bed and began dressing himself, even though all he really wanted to do was to burrow his face into the pillow, so nobody would be able to see his shame. How could he be so stupid?

“Severus, I realize that you may think me to young, but I don't care about my age or your age. I stopped with serious relationships a long time ago, but you make my soul sing! What we have could really be something special, have you ever felt as comfortable with anyone like you feel with me? Have you ever had as amazing sex before? Please don't end this just because you’re afraid we are too different, or because you fear that people may judge you.”

Severus nodded but continued to dress himself, “You should dress as well. I believe your son is waiting for
you in the kitchen, I need to get back to work, but I'll see you later wont I?” Severus asked as he gave Dante a peck on the lips

“Yes, can I meet you tomorrow?” Dante asked while pulling on a t-shirt, it was black and on the front it read, “I'm not paranoid” while it said, “Stop following me!” on the back.

“Yes, we can meet up tomorrow, but now I must take my leave.” Severus gave Dante a final kiss before leaving the room.

Dante let out a sigh of content before pulling on a pair of jeans, and heading down to the kitchen.

***********

Severus entered his quarters hoping to be able to have some peace and quiet, just to find that the headmaster was waiting for him. Dumbledore was sitting in a chair in front of the fireplace, and slowly turned his head towards Severus. He quickly rose from the chair, using a speed that was unexpected for a man at his age, after all he was over 150 years old. “My boy, where have you been? I have been so worried about you!”

“Headmaster, I have been in London looking for the Potter boy like you asked me to do.”

“Clearly, you did not see the need to inform me of your whereabouts. You were gone for two days, Severus! Two days, I thought you had died, where in the name of lemon drops were you?!”

There was no twinkle in the eyes of the old wizard, and Severus felt oddly comforted by the fact that Dumbledore was yelling at him. At least somebody cared about him, somebody noticed that he was missing, “I am sorry headmaster, but I was attacked by a group of thugs and only recently recovered.”

“Are you alright now child?” Dumbledore looked worried, as he studied the Slytherin over his half moon glasses.

“Yes, I am quite alright. I have made some discoveries about the Potter situation, my sources tell me that Potter is dead.”

“Impossible! I know this to not be true, it cannot be… That means that I must have been wrong about the prophesized child, I need to contemplate this. Thank you, Severus I will take my leave now.”
