Chapter 6- Old Feelings and Comfort

Hermione watched Severus. She remembered how he described his father. Severus had told her that the man was evil incarnate. He had taken away the one thing that had meant the world to Severus. His mother. Severus’s mother had been a beautiful woman. Long raven black hair, tanned skin and bright blue eyes. Hermione also knew that Damien Snape was the only person Severus was deathly afraid of.

“No hug for your dear old father? I’ve been out of Azkaban all these years and not a word.” Damien said.

“What…what the hell do you want?” Severus asked.

“To punish you. You disobeyed me yet again. I told you never to disobey our Lord Voldemort and I hear you betrayed him. I also told you never to get involved with a mudblood and here you are fucking one. You will be severely punished boy.” Damien said with an evil smile.

“Leave! Now!” Severus yelled, his fear of his father evident.

Severus stared at his father. He was frightened beyond belief. The main reason was that his father was too close to Hermione for his liking. If he attacked her, Severus couldn’t get there in time to help her.

“Not without punishing you. I believe your punishment will be…THIS!” Damien yelled as he grabbed Hermione.

“AAHH! LET ME GO YOU FUCKING BASTARD!!!!!” Hermione yelled.

“NO! PLEASE! LET HER GO!” Severus screamed.

Hermione was fighting to get away. She wasn’t scared. Oh no. She knew she should be, but wasn’t. Instead, she was pissed. Her anger was nearing the boiling point.

“The more you scream in fear, the more I like it.” Damien whispered as he ran his tongue against her cheek.

“I’m not scared. I’m pissed the fuck off!” she screamed.

She thrust her leg back and felt it connect with his groin. She followed that up with an elbow to the face. Damien quickly let her go and she ran to Severus. Severus grabbed her and held her so close and so tight, it was like she was his life line. And to him, maybe she was.

“You…little…bitch.” Damien growled.

“I guess you’ll think twice before taking me on.” Hermione hissed.

At her side she felt Severus shaking like a leaf.

“This isn’t over. You can’t protect her from me Severus. I’ll get her and once I’m done, I’ll get you too. You and your mudblood whore will soon join your mother.” Damien said then vanished.

“Severus, it’s over. Come on. We have to tell Albus and Minerva.” Hermione said gently.

Severus let her lead him inside. As they made their way through the castle, Hermione noticed the student staring at Severus. He was shaking so bad his own legs barely supported him.

They reached the gargoyle, she said the password and burst into Albus’s office. Albus and Minerva looked up. Hermione helped Severus into a chair. Once seated he buried his head into his shaking hands.

“Hermione, what happened? I’ve never seen Severus like this.” Minerva asked.

“His father, Damien Snape. That’s what happened. Remus and I were talking. He forgot his potion. Sirius showed up and they are now in the Forbidden Forest somewhere. I noticed something moving out of the corner of my eye. When I turned there he was. Severus froze right on the spot.

“He said something about punishing Severus for disobeying him. He grabbed me but I fought back. A well placed kick to the groin and elbow to the face and he let go. I ran to Severus. Damien said that he would be back for me then for Severus.” Hermione explained.

“Dear Merlin! This isn’t possible. Severus got word ten years ago that his father died in prison.” Minerva gasped as she knelt beside the still trembling Severus.

“Minerva’s right. How could the man be dead then suddenly be alive?” Albus said.

Hermione began pacing as the ran over everything she had been told about Damien. Suddenly she stopped and turned to Severus.

“Severus, was your father a Death Eater?” Hermione asked.

“Y…yes. He…he was Voldemort’s right hand…man and confidant. My…father…knew everything about…Voldemort.” Severus stuttered.

“Oh my god. He pulled a Barty Crouch!” Hermione cried.

“What?” Albus and Minerva asked.

“A Barty Crouch. Remember when Mr. Crouch switched his wife for his son? That’s what happened with Damien. I remember hearing Kingsley tell Remus that they were closing a case on this wizard who went missing ten years ago. I bet, one of the other Death Eater took that wizard and switched him for Damien. The Dementors wouldn’t have know the difference.” Hermione explained.

“Lucius. Lucius would have been the only one who had the ties or the balls to do that.” Severus said weakly.

“Hermione, take Severus to his room. I’ll take your place in the infirmary tonight. Severus need you more tonight. Severus, get some rest. Since tomorrow is Saturday, let’s all meet for tea tomorrow and discuss this further.” Minerva said.

Hermione nodded and helped Severus to his feet. After saying good night, they flooed to Severus’s office. Hermione eased him onto the couch.

“Want a drink?” she asked.

Severus only nodded. Hermione went to his liquor cabinet and poured him the strongest drink he had. She handed him the drink as she sat beside him. He downed the drink in one gulp. After a minute or so he stopped shaking.

“I don’t believe it. He’s alive.” he whispered.

“Severus, I’m not going to say everything will be all right, because I don’t know if it will be. I will tell you this. Here, in Hogwarts, Damien can’t hurt you. Also, you’re not a child anymore. You can’t let him run your life. It’s okay to fear him, it our fear that makes us stronger.” Hermione said.

Severus took one look at her and pounced. Hermione gasped as she felt his lips slam against hers and his body cover hers. She responded quickly. Somehow Severus gathered her into his arms and they made it to the bedroom.

They stripped their clothes off and threw them around the room. They tumbled on the bed in a tangle of limbs. Severus wasted no time. He entered her and found her ready for him.

“Severus!” Hermione gasped in pleasure.

“Hermione. Please forgive me.” he whispered as he began thrusting hard and fast.

Hermione covered his lips with hers, thrusting her tongue into his mouth. She easily matched his pace. She rolled them over and began riding him hard and fast. She knew what he wanted. What he needed. She took control. There was nothing sweet and loving. This was raw sex.

“That’s it Severus. Ohhh. Harder. Deeper. Fill me.” she whispered into his ear.

Severus growled and rolled them over. He pulled out only to move her to her hands and knees. He swiftly entered her yet again. Hermione cried out in ecstasy. She knew they would both probably have hickies and bruises but that could be dealt with in the morning. His thrusts were getting harder.

“Come for me Severus.” she said.

After his next thrust Hermione cried out as she came hard. A few thrust later she felt Severus empty his seed deep within her. They collapsed on the bed gasping for air. Severus slowly withdrew from her, rolled her so she was facing him and buried his face in the crook of her neck.

“I’m sorry Hermione. I…I didn’t mean to get so rough.” he whispered.

“Sshh. It’s okay. You need this. Beside, did it sound like I was complaining.” she said with a smile.

A few seconds later she felt something warm begin to soak her shoulder and felt him trembling. Hermione held him close and tight as he cried. After half an hour he was sound asleep.

“Don’t worry. I’ll always be here for you Severus. I love you.” she whispered as she too fell asleep.

Severus woke a little after dawn. He looked down at the brown haired angle in his arms. He gasped as he noticed the bruise forming on her shoulder. He removed the blanket and sheet and saw two more on her hips and one on her thigh.

‘My god. What have I done?’ he thought in fear.

Hermione shivered as the cool air hit her skin. Severus quickly covered her once more. He slowly moved out of the bed and headed for the bathroom. He started the shower and climbed under the hot jets of water.

Hermione awoke to the sound of the shower going. She sat up and stretched. She noticed the bruises, but didn’t care. She climbed out of bed and headed to join Severus. Quietly she entered the bathroom and climbed into the shower with him. She grabbed the soap and began washing his back.

“Why?” he asked.

“Why what?” she answered.

“Why are you still here after last night?” he asked.

“Severus, look at me.” she said.

He turned and faced her. Hermione leaned up and kissed him softly and slowly.

“I’m here because I love you. So you got a bit rough last night. I enjoyed it. Didn’t you notice? It was kind of exciting. I’m not upset about it. So stop worrying about it. You didn’t hurt me in any way. Now, let’s finish our shower and go up for breakfast.” she said gently.

They finished, dried off and got dressed. They made their way upstairs. Outside the doors Severus stopped, swooped her into his arms and kissed her. The kiss was long, sensuous and passionate. Hermione wrapped her arms around his neck and eagerly returned the kiss. Both pulled apart and entered the hall hand-in-hand and smiles on their faces.

That afternoon they went to meet with Albus and Minerva. They discussed plans to protect Hermione and Severus.

“There’s nothing we can do. When my father is after someone, you can’t hide from him.” Severus said.

“Severus, until we come up with something neither of you are to leave the castle.” Albus ordered.

Both nodded. Severus decided to go to the library. Hermione headed to the hospital wing. She told Poppy, who gave her the day off. Hermione went to the dungeons and saw Severus was still in the library. Suddenly, she got an idea. She quickly began working on her plan.

It was dinner but Severus wasn’t in the mood to eat in the Great Hall. He made his way to his rooms. He entered and stopped. His sitting room was bathed in candle light, soft music was coming from somewhere and dinner for two.

“Hermione?” he called out.

No answer. He started for the bedroom when he noticed something. The end table and statue of Ares were on the floor. Broken. A chill ran down his spine as he tore from the room. Severus burst into the Great Hall causing everyone to stop and Stare.

“Albus! He took her!” Severus yelled.
