A turning moment in life

A/N: all chapters have been edited now, revised by my beat Madame Warren, if it weren't for her great job the story would be sooo much crap. Enjoy.


Severus kicked his door closed to avoid anyone seeing them in such a compromising position. He was about to kiss her when she started talking, a bad habit he needed to put a stop to.

‘Thank you again, Professor. I couldn’t believe it when I saw the book. It must have cost you a fortune, and I’m not sure how I would be able to repay this gesture on your part, and…’ Hermione was on a roll. She could not hold her tongue and thought the disappointed looked passing over Severus’ face was because she wasn’t thanking him profusely enough.

On the other hand, Severus was tired of hearing her rant on and had to stop her at any cost, so he decided to do what he had in mind in the first place. He took her face in his hands and kissed her deeply, tasting her lips and tongue, immediately putting a stop to her harangue. She was sweet, a mix of chocolate and vanilla, and Severus felt her tasting him too, eager to return his kiss.

Suddenly she tensed and stopped the kiss. Severus was confused, he was feeling so high he could swear she had given him some muggle drugs, but the fact she was backing away brought him back to the present. Again she talked, thus spoiling the best moment he had ever had.

‘Severus, we shouldn’t do this,’ Hermione whispered.

‘No, we shouldn’t,’ Snape bit back. He was getting really angry with her for not melting away in his arms.

‘Please, Severus, don’t be mad at me.’

‘I understand you got carried away by the moment and won’t mention this incident again. You don’t have to worry about any indiscretion, Miss Granger.’

‘No, it’s not that.’

‘What is it then? You seemed to be enjoying it, but then decided your former Potions teacher was not who you wanted to kiss.’

‘Severus, I do want to be kissed by you and much more,’ Hermione whispered, blushing profusely. ‘It’s just that I never thought you cared, and people will talk about the validity of my apprenticeship if something happened between us.’

‘I see.’ Severus was pissed, but he could understand her argument. Though relationships were normal in their circumstances, women were always considered less professional if they got involved.

‘I’m sorry.’

‘Don’t be.’

An uncomfortable silence settled on them. Neither moved. They did not want to break the magic surrounding them after sharing that kiss. Hermione felt the Potions Master’s heat consuming her, and she felt afraid to follow her instincts and throw caution to the wind. Ginny was right; she needed to learn to have fun. She had to do something to stop the tension.

‘Have you opened my present?’ Hermione asked timidly.

‘No, I did not have the time.’

‘Would you open it now?’

‘Indeed.’

Severus was still shaken by the passionate kiss, but decided he wanted her around and opening the gift would give him time to think about what to do. He slowly opened the package; it was wrapped securely and had a cooling charm around security wards. What could possibly be in there that needed security wards? Snape saw what was inside the box and was momentarily astounded, his eyes went wide and his mouth opened involuntarily. Hermione was really happy with his reaction; she knew it was the right thing to give him. Severus took out the dragon’s blood, claw and fang. This present was as invaluable as the one he had given Hermione. These things were the most expensive potions ingredients and needed to be delivered through the Ministry of Magic with special permission.

‘How did you get these?’

‘Well, I asked a good friend of mine who works in the dragon preserve in Romania to send me a few things.’ Hermione was delighted, Charlie had got everything for her and made the paperwork go much faster than usual.

Severus turned to Hermione with a glint in his eye and used his most seductive voice, ‘Hermione, you can’t go now.’

He had used her name! She was speechless, looking at him as if he had hit her with Impedimenta. Severus touched her cheek, and his fingers made her tingle all over her body. He needed her, and she wasn’t going to get anywhere now. Nobody had ever done something like this for him, and he wanted to thank her in a very special way.

Hermione felt him getting nearer and kissing her again. This time taking his time to caress her lips with this tongue and tangling his hands in her hair. His body was pressed to hers and she could feel him, he was hard and muscled, she felt safe with him. Their tongues were battling for dominance, and Hermione’s hands caressed his back. He crushed her body into his and started kissing her passionately. He nibbled her jaw and licked her neck, making her tremble. Severus smiled when she moaned; she was his now, and he would make her remember this night. It was going to be the best Christmas ever.

Hermione was suddenly in the Potions Master’s arms, getting carried towards his bedroom. She loved it. It was full of books, and his bed looked comfortable. But his insistent kissing on her neck was taking her conscious thoughts away. She felt herself being lowered onto the bed, and his incredible hands opening her shirt while his lips followed the hollow of her neck down to the swell of her breasts. She was panting and moaning loudly now. She whispered his name and he stopped to look in her eyes. The permission he was looking for was granted without a second thought.

Severus could not believe his luck; the fact that this beautiful woman wanted him was making him dizzy. Her breasts were perfect and told her so, he called her by her name while he licked and bit her nipples making them hard. He needed to see her completely naked, but wanted to take his time.

Hermione felt Severus getting away from her, and she opened her eyes to see him sitting next to her on the bed. ‘Oh, please, Severus. Don’t stop now.’

‘I want you to take the rest of your clothes off for me. Let me enjoy you.’

Hermione blushed. She had never felt so turned on by listening to a man’s voice and was compelled to do as he said. She kneeled on the bed and undid her jeans’ button and zipper while her eyes were locked on Severus’. He looked like he wanted to eat her all, and that was exactly what he planned to do.

‘Now, undress me, Hermione.’

She started to nervously take off his overcoat. He only wore a white shirt underneath, and she pressed her hands to his chest, feeling his muscles and his nipples. Severus’ breath caught when she took off his shirt and licked his nipples; she was being impulsive, and he liked that. Her hands were trembling when she got to his trousers. He wanted her to be at ease; nervous was not going to be so good.

‘Wait,’ Severus whispered in her ear. ‘Feel me through my trousers first. See how much I want you.’

Hermione started panting harder, and she felt her core heating up and getting wetter than she had ever been. She touched his shaft through his clothes and was surprised to find how hard and big he was. Severus saw the surprise in her eyes and took advantage of it, ‘This is how much you turn me on, Hermione. Nobody else has ever made me as hard as you do.’

Hermione licked her lips unconsciously. She wanted him and needed to see him. She swiftly took off his trousers and black boxers. He was longer and wider than she expected, but a need to taste him overtook her. Hermione leaned toward him and licked the base of his shaft; she heard Severus hissing and continued wetting his cock with her lips. When she got to the top, her lips enveloped his tip and licked it, tasting his pre-cum.

Severus felt her delicious mouth and heat taking him. He did not want to finish any time soon, but he could not stop her. His hand automatically went to her hair, to encourage her. She started moving her head up and down, sucking him hard. Severus was getting the best blow job ever.

‘Merlin, Hermione. Suck me, suck me harder.’

Hermione had always liked to give head, and Severus’ cock was perfect. He was hard and thick. He tasted salty and smelled so manly she wanted to get his cum in her mouth. She kept sucking him and licking his tip, listening to Severus encouraging words. He was near the edge when she felt him stopping her.

‘Wait. I want to give you something, too.’

Hermione could not wait to see what this experienced man had in store for her.
