Chapter 4

Hermione walked into the wine cellar. She quickly found the port and made her selection of red wine. She had just closed the cellar door and entered the kitchen, when she felt she wasn’t alone. She quickened her pace to the backdoor. Two feet from the door she was grabbed from behind and a hand slammed over her mouth.

“Going somewhere sweetie?” Phillip asked.

‘Oh Merlin!’ Hermione thought as she began to struggle.

Phillip turned her around so she was now facing him. In a split second she was pinned to the floor by Phillip, the port and wine lay shattered on the floor a few feet away. Hermione tried to scream, fight back, do anything to get away.

“Time to pay bitch.” Phillip hissed before he slammed his lips over hers.

“Hello?” Severus said as he picked up the phone.

“Severus, it’s Chris. Marianne and I are running a little late. We had to drop off our daughter, Cassidy, off at the movies.” Chris said.

“That’s all right. I was just finishing up dinner. Hermione should be…” Severus started to say.

“AAHH! HELP! PLEASE!” came a scream.

“What was that?” Chris asked worriedly.

“Hermione!” Severus cried as he dropped the phone and bolted out the back door.

“Phillip please! DON’T! PLEASE!” Hermione cried.

Phillip had ripped open Hermione’s silk blouse, tore off her bra, ripped her underwear in half and shoved her skirt up around her waist. He was now roughly shoving two fingers inside her.

“So hot. So tight. I bet your cunt will feel good around my hard cock. I bet you will eve be begging me for more.” Phillip said as he roughly pinched her nipple.

“NOOOO! STOP!” she screamed as she felt the pin from his thrusting fingers and the hard pinch.

Suddenly, the lights come on. Phillip and Hermione stared at the doorway. There was Severus. His face was a mask of pure fury. His anger quickly turned to hatred at the sight of his girlfriend, pinned to the floor, topless, underwear gone, Phillip’s left hand on her breast, his right hand between her legs and the tears streaming down Hermione’s cheeks.

“GET THE HELL OFF OF HER!” Severus screamed.

Phillip got to his feet and jerked Hermione up and held her tightly to him. Phillip smiled evilly as he turned Hermione to face him. Without taking his eyes off of Severus, he punched Hermione. She fell to the floor unconscious.

In a flash Severus lunged at Phillip. The two men fell to the floor. The two began to throw punches. Severus caught one punch to the side of the head. Phillip grabbed Severus by the hair and slammed his head into the floor. While Severus tried to clear his head, Phillip reached up on the counter and pulled a butcher knife from the knife holder. He slammed the knife down toward Severus’s chest.

“Shit!” Severus cried as he rolled away at the last second.

Phillip and Severus both got to their feet. Phillip lunged at Severus, who dodged easily. Phillip began to slash at Severus.

“She’ll…always…be…mine!” Phillip yelled as he slashed at Severus.

“Severus! Hermione!” Chris called out as he and Marianne ran into the kitchen.

“Check on Hermione and call Scotland Yard!” Chris ordered as he ran to help Severus.

“Hermione? Honey can you hear me?” Marianne asked as she knelt beside her niece.

“Aunt…Aunt Marianne?” Hermione moaned quietly.

“Sshh. Hello? Yes, I need Scotland Yard here now! My niece has been attacked! Yes…Chris! My husband and niece’s boyfriend are fighting him.” Marianne explained to the officer.

“Severus! Behind you!” Hermione cried as Phillip lunged.

“AAHH!” Severus yelled as the knife grazed his right shoulder.

“Okay. Please hurry!” Marianne said as she hung up the phone.

Chris and Severus tackled Phillip. Chris managed to get the knife away and tossed it aside.

“I’ve got him. Get to Hermione.” Chris ordered as he pinned Phillip’s arms behind his back.

Severus hurried to Hermione. As he knelt at her side, he unbuttoned his shirt and draped it around her shaking form.

“Severus! Oh Severus!” Hermione cried as she buried her face in his bare chest.

“Scotland Yard!” yelled a man at the door.

“He’s here.” Chris called out.

The officers ran to Chris while the paramedics hurried to Hermione. Once Phillip was handcuffed and pulled to his feet. Chris hurried to Hermione, Severus and Marianne.

“Ma’am, do you need to go to the hospital?” the female paramedic asked.

“Why?” Severus demanded as one paramedic finished bandaging his arm.

“She’s bleeding. Were you raped?” the lady answered.

“No. He…he…used…his fingers.” Hermione stuttered.

“Do you still want to get checked out?” the lady asked.

“No. Severus is…a doctor.” Hermione answered.

“All right. I suggest she gets some rest for the next few days.” the lady said as she stood up.

“Ma’am, I assume you will be pressing charges against this man?” the officer asked.

“Yes!” Hermione cried.

As the policemen led Phillip away, he began yelling.

“You’re mine! You’ll never be rid of me! Never!” Phillip yelled as he was pushed out the door.

Thirty minutes later, Severus carried a shaking, bruised and bleeding Hermione back to his home. Marianne and Chris followed. Severus gently laid her on the couch. He rushed upstairs and returned with his wand. He quickly said a spell that stopped the bleeding from between her legs. He then produced two potions.

“Hermione, this one is for the pain and this one is a calming draught.” Severus said as he handed them to Hermione.

She quickly downed them both. Marianne hurried to the kitchen and returned a few minutes later with some hot tea.

“Are you sure you’re okay?” Chris asked.

“I am now.” Hermione answered.

“I shouldn’t have let you go over there by yourself.” Severus said.

“Severus, I should have had my wand on me. I didn’t think. He threatened me a few days ago. Don’t think this is your fault.” Hermione said as she placed her hand on his knee.

“Chris, let’s go. Hermione needs to rest.” Marianne said.

Chris and Marianne hugged and kissed Hermione after telling Severus to call if he needed anything. Finally, they were alone.

“Let’s get you upstairs and into a hot bath. You‘ll feel better.” Severus said.

Severus once more swept Hermione into his arms and carried her to his bathroom. He sat her onto the toilet and drew her a hot bubble bath. Once the tub was filled, he helped her undress then gently eased her into the tub. Hermione sat there, arms wrapped around her knees, shaking like a leaf and rocking back and forth in the water.

“Hermione, do you want me to join you?” Severus asked.

“Yes. Please.” Hermione answered.

Severus quickly stripped off all of his clothes and climbed in behind her. Hermione scooted back into his arms and began crying.

“Sshh. It’s over. Everything is going to be fine. I promise.” Severus whispered as he held her.

“Why? Why me?” she asked.

“I don’t know. But this Phillip can no longer hurt you again. And after tonight, he will be preparing for court.” he answered softly.

Gently Severus grabbed a sponge and began rubbing it across her back and shoulders. Very slowly Hermione began to relax in his arms. Gently he washed her from head to toe. By the time he was finished, she was like putty in his hands. He climbed out, dried off and did the same to Hermione. After she was dried and dressed, Severus carried her to his bedroom. Severus settled them both in bed. Hermione snuggled up against him. Severus simply held her.

“How are you feeling?” Severus asked.

“I’m feeling much better now.” Hermione answered.

“That’s good. Now, let’s try to get some sleep.” Severus said.

Before Severus could turn out the light, they heard a tapping at the window. There on the window pain was a medium size brown barn owl. Severus got up to let the animal in. The owl gratefully took the treat and water Severus offered before flying off again.

“Who’s it from?” Hermione asked.

“It’s from Draco.” Severus answered.

Severus curled up next to Hermione and opened the letter.

Dear Uncle Sev,

Ha! Ha! I can picture your pissed off look. Get over it! We just got back from and Areosmith concert! Enclosed is a T-shirt and c.d. I’m sure you won’t like the shirt, but I’m sure you can find some lovely lady to give it to.
You’ll laugh at this one. We were front row and Pansy and Millicent took their tops off and flashed Steven Tyler. Of course Steven Tyler pulled them onstage and gave them each a scarf from the mic. stand..
After the concert we went to McDonald’s, Crabbe and Goyle had a double cheeseburger eating contest. Crabbe won with 15 double cheeseburgers. And guess who walked in?! Alan Rickman himself! Pansy and Millicent fainted, and I got his autograph and we all took a picture together. Enclosed is an autograph for you as well. (Sorry it’s not a picture.) In 2 days I’ll send the picture of us with Mr. Rickman.
I guess that’s all for now. Hope you’re enjoying your summer. I also hope you’ve found someone special. See you when we get back.

Draco

Hermione and Severus laughed as Hermione took of her pajamas and put on the Areosmith T-shirt. Severus folded the letter and put it on the nightstand. He then picked up the napkin. It was signed to him from Alan Rickman.

“I didn’t know you were a fan of Alan Rickman.” Hermione said giggling.

“Yeah. So what?” Severus asked.

“Nothing. I just don’t picture you the type to going to movies and stuff.” she answered still giggling.

“Is that so.” he said with a smile.

Severus gently grabbed her wrists, rolled her onto her back and softly pinned her hands near her head. Both were laughing as he moved over her. Their eyes met. Ever so slowly they began to kiss. Severus took his time as he lovingly made love to Hermione. Showing her just how much he cared and loved her. Showing her that everything would be all right, as long as he was at her side.
