You turn left down Knockturn Alley, and look behind you, checking around before passing the pointed sign. You had a few things to pick up in this part of town, and you really didn't need any eyes prying into your business.
You carry your bag of galleons in hand, black dress sweeping the cobble. It's early evening, just as the sun is going behind the cloud... the perfect time to shop here. It was no secret you were a part of one of the richest, oldest families in the Wizarding World... one of.
You begin to hear a step clip, step clop noise behind you, and smirk slightly. It was the insufferable man you had a soft spot for back in school.
"Are you in the habit of following ladies after dark now, Mister Malfoy?"
The noise stops, and you hear sputtering. You turn with a sly smile, and see the poised man lift his chin, black cloak swishing behind him.
"Miss (y/l/n)," he says, narrowing his icy eyes, "I had no idea I'd see you here, on your way to Borgin and Burke." He gives a cordial smile, raising an eyebrow. You raise one right back.
"No?"
"No," he muses decidedly, and clears his throat at some passing wizards who were staring. He steps in closer, looking you up and down. "What are you doing out here alone so late at night?"
"I know my way around," you tell him, taken a little off guard by his proximity.
"--further... it is a shame nobody is accompanying you," he ignores your comment, and you huff.
"Must I be accompanied?"
He shifts uncomfortably, looking around. "I know how gifted a dark witch you are, (y/n)..." He looks around conspiratorially, lowering his voice, "We all knew that, back in the time of the Dark Lord... and Slytherin house had no better dueler." He straightened up. "But even so, this place is littered with the dregs and scum of the wizarding world."
"So your intentions are purely gentlemanly then," you tease, and he ruffles, sticking his nose up.
"Of course."
"Hm," you smile, and he goes a little weak, lust flashing in his eyes.
"Should you ever happen... that is to say, if you are ever in need of," he chooses his words carefully, confidently deciding on some, "Of an escort. Or simply someone to keep you company this late at night..." he gives a haughty smirk. "I am right here for the calling."
With that, he gives a tap of his cane, and walks away, leaving you to bite your lip and wish you had accepted the handsome man’s offer.
