My Dashing Lord

The Dark Lord's gaze found mine, his expression flashed to what looked like worry before it schooled into a expressionless face.

He flicked his hand and the ropes at my side were instantly gone. I stood while rubbing my sore arms, the Dark Lord's gaze never leaving me. I looked at the remains of my apartment, which wasn't much. For starters the wall was missing, my kitchen counters were ripped up, and every piece of furniture was broken into pieces.

"I'm sorry"

I snapped towards the Dark Lord's voice. He just apologized!

"Who were they?" I asked schooling my surprised expression.

His mouth turned downwards into a frown "I don't know. Most likely someone after my power."

I bent down to look through the rubble only to stop when he said "Stay with me."

I turned to him "What?"

"Your apartment is in pieces because of me."

"Ya thanks for that by the way."

He sighed "Look I'm trying to help you, stay with me in a comfortable warm condo until you find somewhere else to live."

"Last time I was there, you forced me to make you dinner."

A small grin played at his lips making me glare at him.

"Alright, I'll leave you to it then." He turn to leave, which made me panic! Maybe staying with him wasn't such a bad idea. I'm not safe out here, nor do I have enough energy to fight another attack. I would've died without his help. Dammit.

So I did something I never thought I would do.

"Wait!" Sighing I said again "wait, I'm coming with you."

He turned with a grin "Then what are you waiting for love?" he held out his hand.

I rolled my eyes at him and took his hand.

Nothing happened.

"Um, aren't we suppose to teleport or something?"

He looked at me and smiled "I like holding your hand instead."

Something fluttered in my stomach, which made me more mad. This man was going to be the end of me.

"Fine I won't go with you then." I said letting go

He grabbed my hand "Alright fine I'll teleport, no fun."

"Alright let's go Dark Lord."

He looked at me with a look I couldn't read.

"Remus"

"What?"

"My real name is Remus, but should you feel that doesn't suit me My Darling, My Love, or My Dashing Lord would work also."

A mocking laugh escaped me before I said "Wow, you sure think a whole lot about yourself."

"Oh please your just jealous of my good looks." He said with a wicked grin.

Before I could responded we teleported.
