HP Dual Masters and I had a blast in Hogwarts.

Chapter 236 The Triumph of the Three Kingdoms: The Ball Ends

"It seems like we're being watched." I laughed and led Percy in a slow dance to the music.

“It’s not us, it’s just you, Ayles,” Percy whispered in my ear.

"Hehe~ Have you missed me lately?" I laughed and pressed my hand closer to him.

"I miss her, I miss her so much." Percy left my embrace with the music, then I pulled her back into my arms.

"How about you come visit me at my house after this Triwizard Tournament is over?" I said, taking Percy's hand and circling him around a few times.

"Anything is fine with me, as long as it's your invitation, I'll accept." Percy finally leaned into my arms, and the dance ended just like that. I took his hand and walked back to where we were resting.

"Percy, you're really quick!" Fred blocked our way as we walked back from dancing.

“I’m about to leave this ball and go back home. Seeing you all hesitating, I’ll just invite you directly.” Percy wasn’t going to let Fred and George off just because they were his younger brothers. First come, first served, and this was the opportunity he had seized.

"Now it's our turn. Can Ayers dance?" This time George learned quickly and invited me to dance before Fred could even react.

"Oh no~ George, aren't we still brothers?" Fred never expected that his twin brother would beat him to it while he was chatting with Ayers.

“At a time like this, brotherly affection won’t work.” George quickly pulled me back to the dancing group.

"Look, Fred, you should learn from this." Percy smiled as he left, having already said goodbye to Ayers.

"I'm speechless. The older brother is like this, and the younger brother is like this too." Fred could only helplessly drink his beverage and wait for Ayers' next dance song.

"Fred is just a bit naive. He might get sold out by you one day and still be counting the money for you." I laughed and put my arm around George's waist, leading him in a leisurely dance.

"No, he knows perfectly well what's going on, he's just letting me have my way." George deeply loves the twins Fred; they are his closest brothers.

"Keep an eye on him." Actually, although the twins say Fred is the older brother, George makes most of the decisions. As the younger brother, George has a deeper understanding of things than Fred.

“Of course I’ll look into that,” George said with a smile.

"It's finally my turn." Fred saw me come back from dancing with George and couldn't wait to pull me straight to the dance area.

“Aren’t you going to ask Ayers to dance? It’s a rare opportunity,” George asked, standing next to Harry.

“Isn’t there Cedric? I’m not in a hurry.” Harry was waiting; he really wasn’t in a rush at all.

“Thanks, Harry.” Cedric really hadn’t expected that he’d been arranged all along. He smiled at Harry.

After we returned from dancing with Fred, Cedric quietly extended his hand, inviting me to dance as well.

We danced in perfect sync; Cedric seemed to always be able to predict my next move.

When we came back from our dance, before Harry could even reach out, I had already extended my hand to invite him to dance with me. He smiled and reached out his hand, and we walked into the dance area together.

When we came back to rest after our jump, Draco with a platinum head suddenly appeared.

I smiled and took his outstretched hand, stepping back into the dance area.

Several people with whom I currently have a high level of affection have invited me to dance, while others with only average affection levels have just watched me dance with others. Fortunately, my stamina is 4S+, so this level of dancing isn't too tiring for me.

As night fell, the joyous and delightful Triwizard Tournament ball came to a successful end, and all the young wizards walked together in twos and threes, whispering among themselves.

It even seemed like there were suddenly a lot more couples. I slowly walked back to Severus's cellar while activating the 'Confusion Charm'.

I can't let the other young wizards know that I've been living in Professor Snape's cellar all this time.

Otherwise, all the young wizards at Hogwarts would know about our relationship.

When I sneaked back to the cellar, Severus had already changed out of the dress.

He changed back into his black robes and was there brewing a potion.

"Severus, is this potion more attractive than me? Are you so obsessed with it?" I tiptoed behind Severus and put my arm around his waist.

"Don't move~" Severus's waist was a sensitive spot, and he felt weak every time Ayers hugged his waist.

"It's alright, I'm here." I was just joking. Knowing Severus's obsession with potions, I wouldn't let his potion-making fail.

I held him in one arm and grabbed his hand, which had been stirring the potion, with the other, and continued stirring the potion in the pot.

"Did you have fun?" Severus asked, leaning against the person behind him.

"Not bad, at least I'm quite happy." Seeing that the potion in the pot was almost ready, I gently released Severus and sat down to the side.

"Aren't you going to change your clothes?" Severus asked curiously, looking at Ayers, who was sitting on the sofa eating snacks.

"I might have another appointment tonight." I smiled at Severus, wondering if he would be jealous if he heard me say that.

"Be careful." Severus glanced at me, then picked up the glass bottle beside him and filled the crucible with the finished potion.

"Severus, aren't you going to ask me who I'm meeting tonight?" I asked Severus, who had a calm expression on his face.

“Ayers, when I agreed to wear this ring, didn’t I already prepare for the possibility that you would have multiple partners?” Severus gently stroked the ring on his hand, then looked intently at Ayers, who was sitting there.

At that moment, all I could do was smile at Severus. My eyes were filled with emotion as I looked at him, and I didn't know what to say.

Seeing is believing, so I stood up, walked over to Severus, and took his hands in mine.

Severus's hands had many calluses, probably from cutting herbs for a long time, but they felt very comfortable to the touch.

I pressed his palm against my cheek, half-closed my eyes, and rubbed my face against his palm.

"Severus~" I called Severus's name in a slightly coquettish voice.

Severus never expected that I would act cute towards him. Look, Severus is staring at me with wide eyes in surprise.

Seeing that everyone was stunned, I immediately wrapped one arm around the waist of the person in front of me, put the other hand on the back of his head, pressed it down, and kissed him.

His body stiffened slightly, clearly startled by the sudden movement. Before he could react further, my other hand gently pressed down on the back of his head.

Severus snapped out of his daze, his eyes filled with surprise and confusion. In that instant when our eyes met, I could no longer suppress my emotions and gently pressed my lips to his.

In that instant, time seemed to freeze, the whole world fell silent, and only the rapid beating of our hearts mingled together, like a passionate symphony.

His lips were soft and warm, with a faint herbal scent, like flowers blooming in spring, exuding a captivating fragrance.

I could feel his initial surprise gradually dissipate, and his body slowly relaxed as he began to respond to my kiss.

His hands unconsciously gripped my arms, as if seeking solace in the warm atmosphere.

This kiss was filled with love and longing; it felt as if we wanted to integrate each other into our lives.

At this moment, our world consists only of each other and this deep, affectionate kiss.

When we finally parted, Severus's ears were flushed with a captivating blush, and his eyes were filled with deep affection and longing.

"Didn't you make an appointment? Aren't you leaving?" Severus asked in a low voice, his arm around my waist.

I looked at him, a smile playing on my lips, and said gently, "I just can't help it, you moved me so much tonight."

"Let's go, I have other potions to brew later." Severus only hugged me gently for a while, then turned around and let go of me to get the herbs to brew the next potion.

I knew Severus didn't want to see me leave, so I just turned around and left the cellar. I wasn't being sentimental, and Severus didn't like sentimentality either.

I cast a Confusion Charm on myself and wandered through the Hogwarts corridors until I reached the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets in Slytherin.

I hadn't planned to come here, but someone actually had the basilisk invite people to meet up through the pipes again.

Fortunately, Harry had already left my side by then, so I only came here after the Triwizard Tournament ball.

After going through a series of familiar procedures, I arrived at Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets once again.

"Didn't you invite me over? Now you're not showing up." I leisurely walked to the widest part of the room and stood there waiting for someone.

Just as I was immersed in the tranquility around me, suddenly, a pair of strong arms gently wrapped around my neck from behind.

That familiar scent instantly enveloped me, and my heart felt as if it had been lightly touched by a feather, sending shivers of pleasure through me.

I subconsciously raised my head, tilted it back slightly, and looked for him behind me.

What comes into view is his thick, jet-black hair.

His hair appeared casual, yet it perfectly complemented his features, with a few stray strands falling across his forehead, adding a touch of untamed handsomeness.

Under the glow of the kerosene lamp in the enclosed room, his black hair faintly shimmered with a soft sheen, as if each strand was telling a story of his unique charm.

Above that were those dark eyes that captivated me.

Like a tranquil night sky, deep and mysterious, yet containing endless tenderness and affection.

When his gaze met mine, it felt as if an invisible force instantly pierced through my soul.

My image was reflected in his eyes, clear and profound, making me understand that I was unique in his heart.

His features are like a fine sculpture, with distinct contours and strong lines.

His high, straight nose added a touch of three-dimensionality to his face.

His slightly upturned lips always carried a faint smile, as if the troubles of the world had nothing to do with him.

At that moment, he held me in his arms, lowered his head slightly, and looked at me intently. The smile on his lips became more and more obvious, revealing a row of clean and neat teeth. He was so handsome that it was impossible to look away.

I felt the strength emanating from his arms wrapped around my neck, a strength imbued with an undeniable protective instinct.

His breath brushed gently against my ear, the warm air tickling my cheek.

I closed my eyes slightly, enjoying this moment of tranquility and intimacy, my heart filled with happiness and peace.

In his arms, I felt as if I had found the warmest and safest harbor in the world.

"You're back?" I asked softly, my voice tinged with longing.

He smiled gently, placed a tender kiss on my forehead, and said, "I missed you, so I came back."

A simple sentence, yet it stirred up waves in my heart.

I opened my eyes and looked once more at my handsome lover with black hair and black eyes. In my heart, I silently wished that time could stand still at this moment, so that this love would never fade.

"But I feel like you've prepared some kind of surprise for me?" I turned around in his arms, and we looked at each other face to face.

"Yes, I have a surprise for you, but you'll only find out when you finish your last event." The person standing in front of me was Riddle, who had left with his older brother for a while.

"So mysterious? That makes me even more curious." I laughed and hugged Riddle's waist.

"I heard tonight is your three-way championship ball. Is this your ball gown?" Riddle changed the subject, talking about the dress I was wearing.

"What? Don't you like it?" I smiled at Riddle, then left the circle of people and turned around to show him.

“Ayers, I have another evening gown prepared for you here. Would you like to change into the one I gave you, the one I know best, and dance with me?” It seems Riddle came prepared; he wanted Ayers to wear the unique evening gown he had prepared and have a perfect dance with him.

"Where are my clothes? How am I supposed to change if you don't give me clothes?" I will always fulfill my lover's requests, especially since these are clothes that Riddle prepared. If I can't give him my only love, I can at least let him see the unique me.

Riddle took a gleaming golden gift box from his magic robe and handed it to me.

"Sometimes our thoughts are quite in sync. I also have a dress here for you." Actually, I prepare a unique dress for each of my target clients. I even had it custom-made by my sugar daddy. There really isn't one like it in this world.

“Then let’s change our clothes and have a dance.” Riddle was pleased that Ayers had prepared an evening suit for him; he had thought that only his subordinate, Severus Snape, would receive such treatment.

When he heard the news, he almost grabbed his wand and ran over to teach Severus Snape a lesson.

Fortunately, I managed to control myself and didn't jump out immediately because I wanted to give Ayers a surprise.

I never expected happiness to come so quickly; I even received an evening gown from Ayers.
