Chapter 7: Where the Fire Burns

***********************************************************************
Severus smirked and kissed her again. “Shall we remedy your ailments then?" he purred. Standing up, Severus lifted her into his arms and carried her off into his bedroom.
***********************************************************************

When he kicked the door closed, Severus set Hermione on her feet and leaned in to kiss her again. " Are you sure about this Hermione?" he whispered on her lips.

Hermione nodded and her arms wrapped themselves around his neck as he kissed her soundly. Something inside her flickered into life and steadily began to grow. Hermione's hands began to slide from Severus' neck and down to his chest. Her hands began to deftly undo his buttons as Severus began to kiss a line from her mouth, under her chin and down her neck. Hermione began to feel hot inside, like a flame was trying to grow into a raging fire that threatened to consume her.

Severus was still trying to grasp that Hermione was williningly coming to his bed. Even as his hands began tugging at her shirt to bring it above her head, he was in awe of the young woman before him. His mind was still able to grasp that she was a virgin and that she had suffered a rather trying ordeal today. I'm going to have to be gentle with her, to show her it can be better than anything she has ever known in her short life. he thought. As Hermione's shirt flew off to the side and his own was pulled from his shoulders, Severus felt how hot she was getting. " You're enjoying yourself I see..." he purred in her ear, feeling her shudder in his arms. He nipped at her earlobe and Hermione let a little mewling sound escape from her mouth.

Hermione didn't answer, instead she tugged the shirt from his arms and threw it to the floor and leaned in to taste his flesh, to make him feel as good as he was making her feel. " Severus, please...Don't stop..." she whispered breathlessly into his ear. Her hands began to fumble with the button of his trousers and Severus groaned as her hand brushed against his erection.
His hand moved to her bra covered mound and began to palpitate the flesh beneath his palm. With a sudden movement, Hermione was on the bed and Severus was above her, kissing her with a fire that had not been there a moment ago. His mouth left a burning trail that paused at the fleshy valley of her bosom and Severus released her sensitized mounds from their prison.

Hermione nearly giggled as Severus discarded her bra with a toss over his shoulder, only to have her mouth form an 'O' as his lips and tongue began to lavish attention on the pert nipple that was before him. Severus' other hand crept down to the hem of her jeans, toying with the button there until it finally popped free and he did the same with the zipper.

As he lavished its twin with the same amount of attention, he slowly slid Hermione's pants down. When they reached her ankles, Hermione kicked them off impatiently and pulled Severus back up to her. She kissed him rather soundly and practically tore his pants away in her haste to get him undressed. Her eyes widened, however, at the size of the bulge that tented his boxers. She steeled herself and parted the slit in his boxers to free his aching flesh and her mouth dropped in her surprise.

Severus wasn't huge, but he was definitely well endowed. He had to be at least close to eleven inches long and an inch and a quarter wide. Her curiosity plowing over her hesitancy, she reached out and fondled the thick shaft gently. Severus inhaled sharply as she wrapped her warm hand around his rod and his hips bucked forward a bit at the sensation. His eyes nearly went to the back of his head when her tongue laved against the flange experimentally. Noticing his reaction, Hermione became a bit bolder and wrapped her lips around the shaft and began to suckle him softly. She grinned inwardly as Severus gripped the headboard for support and he cursed and praised her at the same time. Severus stopped her quickly, and laid her flush against the bed.

" Please Hermione....I want this to be about your pleasure...Not mine..." He whispered against her lips. He kissed her and raised himself back up. Her blush crept all the way to her chest as he looked at her. Just as in his dream, her breasts were perky and just the right size where they nestled into his palm. His hands traveled like a whisper over her smooth belly and his fingers hooked into her underwear. As Severus drew them away from her, he was able to smell her arousal. It was clean and musky, just the way a woman should smell. As a last minute thought, Severus summoned his wand and cast a contraceptive charm on her and then the charm that would allow him to collect her blood. He summoned a crystal vial from the cupboard and set it on the bedside table. His eyes traveled her body one more time and Severus kissed his way down her body, following the trail his eyes had.

When he reached her mound, Severus locked his eyes with Hermione and his tongue dart out and stroked along her slit and over her sensitive nub. She bucked upward for a second and a slew of obscenities rushed from her lips as Severus held her down.

Hermione felt the world losing focus as Severus continued to send her into the heavens, the coil in her belly tightening more and more. Her praises fell to his ears and her hands tangled into the sheets beside her. All Hermione knew was the rapturous feeling that Severus was bestowing upon her and that he was the one doing this.

Without a warning, Severus flicked his thumb over her nub repeatedly and sent her crashing into the waves of orgasm that followed. Her shriek of ecstasy brought a smile to his face and he lapped up every drop he could. Severus kissed his way back up her body and then captured her lips in his own, allowing Hermione to taste herself on his lips.

Hermione kissed Severus back with all the passion that he was bestowing on her. She sat up and removed his boxers, her hands touching him again and fondling his erect manhood. " What if I want this to be about your pleasure as well?" she whispered against his lips as her hand stroked him gently.

Severus was taken by surprise when she took him into her mouth again and began to suckle his flesh in earnest this time. He was shocked by the amount of passion she displayed in the bedroom, and he hadn't even touched her with his cock yet. If this was how it would be with Hermione Granger...He wasn't sure he was about to let her go any time soon. The attack against her earlier let him know that she meant more to him than just a normal girlfriend. She was a potential lover, if she would have him for that long. Severus felt the beginnings of his orgasm building and felt an electric shock that ran from the base of his spine up his cock. He pulled Hermione off of him as he spent his load on her chest and fell back for a moment, drained from the pleasure she had bestowed him with.

" You definitely learn quickly, don't you?" he panted huskily after a few moments. She smiled at him with an impish grin and traced a path up his inner thigh to his manhood. Her simple touch elicited a reaction and he began to grow hard once again.

" I don't know what your first clue was, but I do believe I am enjoying the lesson thus far..." she said sexily. She crawled up to him and kissed him, allowing his passion to spill over to her. Her skin felt as if it was ablaze, even after everything that had happened and she let him guide her back down to the bed.

" Hermione...You know this will hurt, but I have to try and stretch you just a bit so that I can get in a little smoother. So bear with me, please...Soon you will feel the pleasure instead of the pain..." Severus gently parted her folds and found her to still be wet as she had been earlier. He stuck a finger in to the middle knuckle and hissed at how tight she was. Gently stroking her, mimicking the act with his finger, he waited until his finger slid in smoothly before adding a second. His middle finger gently scraped along her hymen and Severus pressed against it a bit to help loosen it for his invasion. Feeling that he wasn't going to be able to stretch her further, he kissed her as he guided his member to her entrance. " Forgive me..." He whispered in her ear one last time. With a quick thrust, he sheathed himself inside her and he heard Hermione cry out in pain as her hymen snapped.

Hermione felt hot tears sting her eyes and fall as the pain of her deflowerment consumed her. Severus was whispering in her ear, telling her it would pass soon and that he was sorry for causing her such pain. After a few moments, the pain had died down and Hermione felt a dull throb there instead of the burning pain that had come with the initial thrust.

Severus allowed her time to adjust to his size and he nuzzled her neck gently. " Are you okay?" he said gently, wiping away the last of her tears.

Hermione nodded and looked at him. " Yes Severus.." she replied. She made to move up a bit, but it caused friction and her mouth went slack at the sensation. " Move...Please..."

Severus grinned and drew away a little and thrust back into her.
Her tightness was putting pressure on his swollen rod and he felt as if he were being drawn in by a magnet. He could hold out though...He felt he needed to give her the most mind shattering orgasm that he could while still being a gentle lover.

Hermione was matching Severus thrust for thrust, but at the same time, felt that he was going a little slow. " Severus...please..." she pleaded. She jammed her hips down, and she felt him tap her cervix. The action earned her a deep groan from the man above her and she moaned in delight at the sensation.

That was the cue that Severus needed. He plowed through her softness and hit bottom with every thrust, adjusting his stroke so that he could bring her to climax. Soon, he felt the familiar tightening around his shaft and Severus heard Hermione keen as she began to orgasm once more. The lightening like sensation raced down his spine and after a few more strokes and the milking sensation of her walls around him, Severus exploded with a groan into her. The vial on the bedside table was full and the bright red liquid shone scarlet in the light.

Hermione lay beneath Severus, completely spent and very sated. “ Damn…” she whispered. She felt Severus roll off of her and he collapsed on the bed beside her.

He stole a glance at her for a moment. In the low light, her body glowed with the glow of a woman satisfied and her caramel eyes turned his way. “ You need to rest…Get some sleep.” He whispered. He leaned over and placed a gentle kiss at her temple and pulled the blankets over Hermione. He smiled as Hermione’s eyes closed and he stood up and put his pants back on. He walked into his personal potions stores and pulled out a pain potion for her for when she woke, because he knew she was going to be sore. Setting the potion on the bedside for her, he gingerly picked up the vial of Hermione’s virgin blood.

‘Such a precious gift, and all she could think about for this was the fact that it was going toward the cure. She gave me the most precious thing she could have this evening, and I will never forget it…’Severus thought. He placed the vial on the worktable in his lab. “ Three drops…That’s how much she said it would take...” He looked at the three cauldrons that they were going to use and frowned. ‘Nine drops…There’s no chance that this will survive that long if we keep going like this.’ The vial only held about two ounces of blood. “ This is going to be the deciding moment…”

__________________________________________________________________

Hermione awoke an hour later, slightly sore and very satisfied. Her nether regions ached from the first encounter, and she hissed as she sat up, but she felt that deep down nothing would ever top that moment. She looked around for Severus and realized that he was probably in the lab because of her falling asleep. Yes, he was there because the vial that held her blood wasn’t there anymore, only replaced with a pain potion. Smiling, she drank down the potion with relish and reached for her clothes. Once she was dressed, she walked into the lab with a smile on her face. “ Severus…”

Severus was surprised to see her up so soon. He smiled softly and felt her kiss his cheek as she came up to him. “ Well, I decided to leave the glass cauldron for last. The steel and silver cauldrons already have they’re drops added and I’m giving it a few hours to react. If they haven’t reacted by one o clock, they are both botched. I have a good feeling about the potion in the glass one, if that means anything.”

Hermione nodded. Without warning, the potion in the silver cauldron began to bubble violently and Hermione pushed the table over while simultaneously casting ‘ Accio Virgin’s blood!’, while Severus struggled to put a repellent charm over the top of the glass cauldron. They heard several squishy sounding splats and Severus sighed. “ Well, the silver cauldron was definitely a dud….” He said sarcastically.

Hermione only found it amusing and laughed.
