Dovesso One Shots | (x fem.reader)

Convinced that someone put a curse on her, Lesso went to the only person she could think would have done it. Dovey.
No warnings needed.

Leonora PoV:

Walking around the halls of the school for good, I tried to avoid the few students that were still out. It was evening, the only light in the hallways came from the torches. Normally I would be sitting in my office, grading papers, but I just couldn't. Not with those feelings stirring up inside of me.

It has been going on for this for weeks now. This had to be her work. There was no other way, no other explanation for how I was feeling. I was a Never, nothing like this should ever be able to happen to me.

Stopping in front of the office door, I took a deep breath. My heart was beating faster than normally, but I found myself in this position more often than I liked it. Everytime I was around her, this happened. Like a need I couldn't control.

Knocking against the door, I turned the door knob and slipped into the dimly light room. Clarissa looked up from her papers, some small reading glasses resting on her cute nose. I shook my head shortly, closing the door behind me and trying to pull myself together.

"How can I help you, Lady Lesso?" Turning my body to her, I took a few steps closer, my cane clicking slightly on the ground. The atmosphere was chilling, the cold air from the open window making my locks brush into my face. Her eyes were glowing slightly in the soft light of the candle on her desk.

Everything inside of me was burning, my heartbeat racing out of my chest. "You know how." Our gazes met. We weren't the best of colleagues, but we did the job as the deans of those schools the best. I wasn't even sure why. There was just this tension everytime we were talking with one another. A tension I couldn't stand.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Lady Lesso. I don't know." Her voice was sweet and soft, almost convincing. She was so calm and collected, it made me want to scream at her. Stepping closer to her desk, I leaned against it. I felt hot, way to hot to wear a coat in here, even though the window was open.

"The curse. Take it off." She seemed suprised at my words. Her body language was relaxed, even as she leaned back in her chair. "Curse? What curse?" "Don't play dumb with me Dovey. Take it off." My voice was sharp, maybe even desperate. Whatever it was, it seemed to amuse the other woman. Watching her smirk slightly did something to me. Something I wasn't ready to admit.

"I didn't put a curse on you, Lady Lesso. Although I kind of wish I did. You seem pretty desperate." I could feel my cheeks turn red, as she crossed her legs. That low voice of hers was making hose feelings worse. "But if you want me to be honest, I don't think you are under a curse. I think you are just experiencing emotions. Love, to be quite exact."

With a deep breath, I leaned back up. It was clear that she saw the effect all this had on me, but I still tried to get my composure back. "It's the tension you feel between us," she started, getting up from her chair, as if she was about to lecture me, "and that weird feeling that doesn't let you concentrate."

The heat was starting to kill me and my heartbeat was going through the roof. How was it possible for one to feel like this? I turned my gaze away from her, as I unbottened my coat, trying to cool back down in the air flow from the open window.

"You say it is a curse, but in reality…" She stopped in front of me, her gaze giving me a goosebump, "in reality, it is something normal." I wanted to just push her away and leave, but nothing obeyed my commands. Instead the want to pull her closer filled me.

"Never's don't feel love. It is a curse." Her soft chuckle made this want turn into a need. "But you do, Lady Lesso. And with you coming to me, I guess that you catched feelings for me." She slowly started to circle me and it made me feel small. Stupid, really. She was the personification of a warm hug and I was feeling vulnerable to her.

"Just shut up with your stupid Ever things, Dovey. This is not the case." I closed my eyes as her fingers tips brushed over my arms before she came to a stop in front of me. "Hm. If you say so, Lady Lesso. Then I guess I can't help you." Staring down into her eyes, I started to press my nails into my hands.

She turned around. I wasn't even sure what came over me, but I couldn't stop myself. Grabbing her arm and turning her back around, I pressed her against the wall. Our bodies were so close to one another, I was sure she could feel the heat radiating off of me.

We stared back into the eyes of the other. No one said a thing, no one moved. It was just us in this dimly lit room. And this need. This need to kiss her. To touch her. Her eyes told me the same as my body and so I gave in. I just wasn't strong enough to pull back.

Our lips met in a tender kiss, as her hands cupped my face softly. It was like a relief, like something in my body was finally happy. We leaned back and I gasped, my hands still grasping her waist tightly.

She didn't even need to say it, her face told me everything. "This… I… How…" My breathing was laboured, but I couldn't step back. I felt more drawn towards her. "This… This is wrong…" Her fingers ran softly along my jaw, making me shiver. The soft touch was wonderful, almost as good as the kiss had felt.

"Love is never wrong, Nora." I looked back down at her. She had never called me something else besides Lady Lesso. But I couldn't say I hated that she called me Nora. "You just need to accept it." Fear and doubt started to rise in me. I needed to think. Think about everything that had just happened. But I couldn't leave. I didn't want to leave.

"I… I don't…" "Shhh…" Her thumb ran over my cheek, as she pulled me closer again. I didn't resist. I couldn't resist. Kissing her once more, I closed my eyes and melted against her lips. This felt right, even though it was wrong. A rule broken, I swore to never break. But for this. Oh for this, I would break all the rules in the world over and over again.

She smiled as I leaned back again, tilting her head to the side. "This is new for you, I understand. Take as much time as you need." Her hands left my face and I wished she would put them back. "I… I guess your right…" Pulling my hands from her waist, I took a step back. There was this tension again and I wanted nothing more than to kiss her again, but I held back. I needed to sort everything first.

"My doors are always open for you." She gave me a soft smile before she walked back around her desk.

"Good night, Lady Lesso," she called after me, after I opened the door to leave. I somehow missed how she called me Nora. "Good night," I answered shortly before closing the door behind me, walking back to the school for evil.
