Chapter 7 “Not You!”

Corazon thank you a million times for being my beta and dealing with all of my flaws. You’re AWESOME!!

Disclaimer: I don’t own Harry Potter, well I do own the books but I don’t own, own them, all I own is the Harry Potter books and my little home the card board abode, and the dress of course. But other than that I own nothing. NOTHING I repeat!


Tempting. That is what she was tempting, very tempting, thought Severus. But physical appearance was not a good reason to get involved Narssisa and Luscius Malfoy were Perfect examples. They hated each other but the physical attraction kept them together, though it was well known for them both to be fucking around with other wizards and witches. Though Hermione was smart as well, ‘No Severus’ push those thoughts out of your mind, this is just an arrangement.

They rode the first few minutes in silence before Hermione becoming too uncomfortable with the stiff silence broke the stillness.

“So, tonight just stay near you, right?” she asked attempting to start a conversation.

“Well it is expected that you, as well as the other females there shall dance with all of the Death Eaters. So no you’ll be wbe with me all night, but other than dancing you should stay by my side,” Snape answered, insinuating for her to act utterly infatuated with him as he surely would act towards her.

“Of course Professor,” Hermione responded understanding his hinting.

“You shouldn’t be referring to me so formally while we’re there, you know Miss Granger,” He added.

“Likewise.”

The continued the ride in silence only hearing the swaying of the carriage, they sat across from one another in separate benches that faces one another.

“Severus,” Hermione testing the name on her tongue and finding it most enjoyable, “Why are we taking carriages, when we both can apperate?” she asked innocently.

“Because as I told you before being a Death Eater has many formalities and rules that must be followed one being taking a form of magical travel other than portkey, floo, and apperating to these formal events. There for our travel by the schools carriages,” he told the naive Head Girl, not looking at her but out of the window at the landscape.

“Oh,” she replied, then thought, “ Severus, is the Voldemort going to be there?” She asked nervously.

“Oh of course not he is not one to attend these kind of events, fear not of him for now,” he reassured her, still refusing to look at her but out the window.

They pulled up to the large black mansion around seven it was a two hour ride. Severus stepped out first offering her a hand that she accepted as she daintily stepped out to look in awe at the large intimidating building. He placed his large hand under the green clad crook of her elbow, and leaned in towards her.

“Hermione keep it together and don’t be afraid if they are more touchy than you’re use to, play along,” he whispered into her ear so only she could hear.

They walked through a large and majestic front hall painted in dark jade green with dark oak columns placed at uniform intervals. They walked into what appeared to be a just as large and beautiful dining hall full of moving portraits of the Malfoy family.

“Severus, so nice to see you and your friend,” said the sneering voice of Luscius Malfoy, locking his eyes on to Hermione’s creamy orbs that practically popped out of her top. “I see the girl cleans up nicely,” he taunted taking her hand and kissing it, whilst Hermione blushed profusely.

“I know that is why she is mine,” Severus allowed his words to carry the tiniest of hints for Malfoy to back off. As he languidly wrapped a hand around Hermione’s waist and kissed her cheek lightly. Hermione just stood there with mock desire written across her face while in truth she wanted to die.

“Of course, please have a seat everyone else is almost here and we will commence with dinner I think,” he said leading them to some tall backed seats on the long table decorated with a green table cloth and highly polished silver flatware and other pieces. As the two sat down Luscius brushed his hand over Hermione’s bare back causing her to shiver.

Once seated Hermione’s eyes were allowed to roam over the others there. The women all in equally revealing outfits with the same silver snake arm band on their arms identical to Hermione’s. The men dressed in the robes identical to Severus all seemed to be sneaking looks at the young muggle-born, when she wasn’t looking. Then Hermione spotted someone who wasn’t dressed in Death Eater robes on the right of the head of the table. She let out a audible gasp and turned to look right into Severus eyes.

Snape who was talking to the Death Eater on his right, hear Hermione’s gasp and excused himself to turn to see what was distressing her. Without words Hermione motioned with her eyes to the head of the table. Stealing a quick glance he saw it too. Draco Malfoy, thought Severus now the rumors would start flying after what the little git would see tonight.

“Remember Hermione,” Severus said quietly leaning into her ear to make it look like to a spectator they were simply exchanging dirty words, “Never break character,” brushing his hand along her cheek and chin. Taking her chin in his long and slender forefinger and thumb.

She nodded minutely. Feeling his hands on her face unusually gently, for what she knew her cold professor to usually be. They both noticed the stares they were getting from the other couples, waiting and expecting. “I’m sorry,” escaped Severus’s lips before he planted a lingering kiss on her mouth. For all the others to see and believe what they wanted them to believe.

Hermione felt the kiss butdidndidn’t penetrate. Though the kiss was some what heated, she felt nothing to it. Her emotional entanglement with Professor Snape at this time was minimal. For Merlin sake he was a teacher and twice or more he own age, he could see her as nothing more than a silly girl in his black eyes. And she would always see him as a cool harsh teacher whom she happened to have to get involved with for an act. ‘Liar’ screamed a small voice in her head, ‘No’ she thought to herself firmly placing that voice back and away

“Ah Hem, “ Luscius said clearing his throat, “ Fellow Death Eaters and guests, welcome to my bash, please enjoy partake and have fun,” Mr. Malfoy said as food and wine appeared filling the plates.

“Umm Severus, is there anything else to drink?” Hermione asked not particularly wanting her sense fogged by wine.

“No just sip it slowly and eat that should keep you sober from even the most potent alcohols,” Snape said. They ate the exquisite meal that was followed by an even more decedent dessert.

“Please, friends join me in the ballroom for some dancing,” Luscius said as the plates cleared. Couples stood up and filed out in pairs. Severus stood up first followed after by Hermione who looped her arm through his and let him lead her into the hall.

A personless orchestra started up with an slow enticing song, that indicated for everyone to dance. Severus turned Hermione into him and started the grinding and snake dance. He’d taught her, but in front of so many other people made seem all the more scandalous

“That’s it just don’t think, only dance. Hermione you’re about to be turned over to another partner they are judging you don’t show how odd it is,” Severus said while he had his head buried into her should so it looked as if he was ravishing her neck. Then she was flung out to another partner, one whom she didn’t know the name of.

She ground her soft hips into his hard ones, then took hold of one of his hands and circled him and turned around to end back in his arms, before moving a few more steps then throwing herself at another person. This is how it went about 7 time over until there were only two left.

“Miss Hermione Granger, you seen to fit perfectly in our world if only you weren’t muggle born then,” Luscious Malfoy leaning in toward her ear and whispering, “Then the options are limitless,” dragging his tongue around the shell of her ear. Hermione had difficulty holding her composer thankful to God that she was turned to another partner, then her heart dropped.

“Yum, You like a delicious piece, I’d love to take a bite out of,” nipping lightly at the nape of her neck.

“Too little too late,” Hermione told Draco coldly, as he tried to seduce her while grinding by her grabbing her ass and breathing heavily into her ear.

“Are you sure?” He asked as she circled him with icy grace.

“Positive,” Hermione grunted as she was pulled/tripped into Malfoy’s chest.

“I wouldn’t be, cause I am going to have a bite I think,” He whispered to her grinding harder with an arousal evident. “You like it and want it don’t you?” Malfoy sneered. Hermione’s breath hitched she never had been so intimately touched before. ‘Don’t ever break character,’ she thought to herself.

“Ah hem, May I have what’s mine? I don’t think she likes what you’re doing,” said Hermione’s savior more that twice now. Malfoy reluctantly released his rare prize, with a muttered word of getting what he wanted.

Severus Snape took the frightened girl held her in his arms and danced slowly with her leaning against him. He felt the urge to protect this utterly innocent girl from the others because she didn’t belong.

“Thank you,” she whispered into his robes, still slightly shaken.

“Of course you are my charge here, and I am sure the Head Master would be displeased if you didn’t come back the way you left,” Snape said coolly holding and dancing with her. In a way that was meant to comfort but had no emotion behind it. Snape andmionmione both knew that it had no meaning behind it, but allowed themselves to act under the illusion.

They stayed dancing and swaying slightly keeping up the act that they were infatuated with one another. It was like this for about 10 minutes before some one approached them.

“Severus you are need with the other Death Eaters in the dining hall,” said the approaching Death Eater. Snape nodded and followed him to the other room looking quickly back at the cinnamon haired girhe khe knew she would wait there for him.

Hermione stood near the edge of the ballroom and silently looked out at the groups of woman. No one noticed her or the person stealthily coming up behind her, and grabbing her.

It happened so suddenly, Hermione tried to scream but the clasping hand prevented the sound. The person drug her off to a small room where he threw her down and put a ward on the door.

“Now to get a bite of my prize,” said the sadistic voice of Draco Malfoy.

“No you can’t,” Hermione sdrawdrawing her wand but was too slow for Draco already had his out and hexed it out of her hand.

“Trust me I am much better than Snape is,” he said licking his lips and approaching her pinning her between the wall and him. Rubbing hard against her he started to undo the hook loops in the front of her corset letting her breast pop out.

“Damn Snape has fine taste in women and clothes,” Draco said ng ang and sucking on her breast, she screamed in pain, Oh God someone help, Hermione thought. Dropping character she tried to kick and thrash out of his torture. But he grabbed her wrists and pinned it up above her head against the cold wall.


_*_**_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Severus felt uneasy something wasn’t right, he hoped for the meeting to end soon. It did but not too soon for him. As soon as it let out he nearly ran back to the ballroom, she wasn’t there. Damn it. He thought, walking hastily through the mansion.

A scream, behind that door at the end of the hall Snape broke out into a full run. He tried to open the door but it was locked. He hastily whispered several anti-wards trying all he knew before the wards were lifted.

Kicking open the door, he found to his horror two hot and heavy students. Draco seemed to be biting her chest while she seemed to be trying to thrash out of his grip.

“Stupefy!” Snape roared and Draco passed out. Hermione slid down the wall gasping and in tears. Severus quickly stole a glance at her chest deep bleeding gashing teeth marks surrounded her left breast as were racking red welts made by finger nails across her shoulder. Severus first wiped Draco’s memory of Snape’s intrusion, before he turned to the crying gir
“
“Miss Granger look at me,” he ordered lifting her chin, “Now you have to trust me I am no Madame Pomfrey but I can fix these wounds just hold still,” Hermione nodded still in tears wanting desperately wanting to cover herself, but she let him do his thing. Severus first touched her shoulders healing them instantly, then touched her breast lightly with his hand then his wand to heal it. A light thin ring shaped scar was left around her breast but it was entirely healed other wise.

sor sorry I can’t heal it better, but we should get going,” he said gently lifting her up and letting her lean against the wall. He started redoing the hooks on her corset, covering her back up. Still Severus was utterly disgusted by this intimate display and seeing her in such a state.

“Miss Granger let’s go,” Snape said supporting her around the waist and leading the teary eyed girl out of the dark mansion.

They got into the carriage and Severus sat her in the same place she rode the way there resuming his own seat. They sat in silence for a minute as the carriage started the long journey back to Hogwarts.

“I was so afraid,” cried Hermione throwing herself at her hated Professor and holding him tightly around the middle like a little child, “I thought I was g tog to die or worst, even if you hate me I am so grateful for you saving me.”

“You’re welcome Miss Granger,” He said passively trying to release himself from her, but failing miserable.

“Please professor. Just for now can I hold you I’m so afraid,” She said through sobs.

Severus nodded letting her sit with his arm around her waist and her leaning against him, snuggling her head into his chest. He supposed that this little show of affection couldn’t hurt. Hermione’s breath quickly evened out and she curled up her legs so she was hugging her legs to her chest, asleep.

‘She almost looks like a doll or a toy,’ thought Severus as he looked down at his sleeping charge that was currently curled up against him with one of her arms thrown around his neck, while his hand was draped across her narrow waist. It was actually quite pleasant to have this girl so close to him, it had been so long since Severus had enjoyed human contact. She smelled sweet like wild flowers or the outdoors. Severus got lost in his thought and the swaying of the carriage he didn’t notice that the chocolate eyed doll looking up into his stern black eyes.

‘He’s rather nice when he thinks no one is looking that is,’ complimented Hermione mentally. She like his sweet tenderness and felt much better in his arms than underneath Malfoy’s. Hermione wanted to stay likis jis just a little longer, she prayed closing her eyes and mentally memorizing the broad and muscular physique of her Potion’s Master. Because Hermione knew very well that him ever being this tender with her again was next to impossible. It just couldn’t work because of their formal student teacher relationship.

“Hermione I know you’re awake. So why are you still laying there?” asked Professor Snape from above her. “Miss Granger I just wanted to say sorry about not getting to you earlier to prevent this,” He said as she sat up next to him and he ran his fingers over the phantom wounds on her shoulders.

“It’s alright, it wasn’t your fault,” Hermione said sitting up properly in her seat and patting down her hair.

“Yes well when we get back to the castle I suggest you stay down in the dungeons for now as all the portraits will be asleep and you wouldn’t be able to sneak in unnoticed, But I am sure you can get up early and sneak back up claiming you got home late last night, or whatever,” Severus told her logically. It did make sense that she couldn’t possibly get home unnoticed so she accepted his offer.

Hermione looked out the dark window and started to recognize some of the landmarks in the dark. They were about to enter Hogsmeade. So Hogswarts was only about 20 minutes away. From the looks of the dark sky and positions of the stars it had to be at least one or two in the morning, thank Merlin she had no classes tomorrow. Hermione let out a low sigh the night was not entirely horrible in fact though she would never admit it out loud she had rather enjoyed dancing with all those dark people. Such a mysterious and dangerously dark world fascinated her because it was everything she wasn’t but dreamed about being.

The cabin of the carriage of the lurched to a stop in front of the tall and gargantuan castle. Severus shook Hermione’s shoulder lightly, she groaned lightly and turned over. Hermione wasn’t use to staying up so late and was tired. She sighed and follow Snape out of the carriage.
