Raven Monroe had never been one for monogamous relationships: there was something so off-putting about the idea. She wasn’t a force to be tamed by natural human relationships - she was different than everyone else...she was a seductress, a woman who had sold her soul to her career so long ago. Reaching up, she pinned some of her red curls up on the other side of her head and observed her face in the mirror. Flawless as usual: certainly the face of a woman who had no intent of settling down any time soon.
Well, at least that had been the case until a few months ago: that was when she had run into Rian Lewis in Hogsmeade. A few drinks, a few chance meetings, and numerous weeks later they had started seeing each other regularly. It was no longer chance encounters that brought them together, but planned get-togethers. Totally unlike Raven and not entirely her style, Rian made her feel like the same wild and carefree woman that she had always been...all the while keeping her grounded. She exhaled into the mirror and picked up her tube of lipgloss, carefully puckering her lips.
But even still, she tip-toed around the concept of giving what they had a title. Raven would wake up in the morning and sneak out of his apartment like it was a one-night stand, ”What are you afraid of, Monroe?” She asked herself, cocking her head slightly to the side as she threw the lip-gloss back onto the vanity.
She knew what it was - she was afraid of giving up everything that she had worked for just for a relationship. ‘Ugh,’ Raven turned away from the mirror and slipped on the pair of heels that was near her. Buckling the top strap she heard the knock on the door of her flat, ”Just a minute!” She called and grabbed her purse and a wrap and then made her way to the front door, ”You’re early, Lewis.” She grinned as she unlocked the door and opened it. Instantly, she threw her arms around his neck and pressed her lips to his.
