*Thoughts*
Chapter 1
Severus was watching his witch talk to her best friends, Harry Boy-Who-Lived Potter and Ronald I'm-Stupid Weasley. Hermione turned to look at him with a secretive smile before looking back at her two dunderheaded friends.
"Hermione, why are you smiling at the bat?" Ron demanded of 'his' witch, Hermione glared at him in anger.
"Ronald Weasley, his name is Professor Snape, not Old Dungeon Bat." Hermione snapped at one of her best friends. "You will have to get along with him eventually, he is a professor and he will be your Professor until we graduate." She then turned to the snickering black haired boy sitting beside her. "Harry don't laugh! I won't help you pass your classes if you keep laughing at Professor Snape." She threatened him with a light glare, making him raise his hands in surrender.
"Mione, don't get mad at me for going with what everyone else says about him." Ron whined pathedically.
"Don't disrespect your teachers, then." She snarled at him. "I don't want to hear you say one more derogatory word about him, or I will never speak to you again." She announced to the Great Hall. "The same goes for you Harry." She added in a quieter voice.
"We get it. No more rude words about the Professors." The sixth year Savior answered her quietly. "I apologize for anything I may have said about any of you over my past 6 years." Harry said to his teachers, bowing his head in repentance.
"Thank you Mr. Potter." Professor McGonnagal spoke for all of the teachers, most of whom were staring at him in shock.
"Now why don't we settle down and get back to eating." Professor Dumbledore informed the student body. "Those of you who are finished eating should head to your first class." He called out to his students, the ones who were finished with their breakfast rose and began working their ways to their first class. Hermione was among those who left the Great Hall.
"Hurry up or you'll be late to Potions." She called to her classmates as she stepped out through the Great Hall's doors. Ron and Harry both groaned at her reminder, rushed to finish their food, and then they had to run to the dungeons to make it to the class in time. They reached the classroom right before Snape himself showed up and slid into their seats just as he was entering the room with his normal flaring robes and slamming door.
"Mr Potter, Mr. Weasley, Detention at 5 for your disturbance in the Great Hall." He ordered the Gryffindors that were annoying his Hermione. "Ms. Granger you will have detention at 7 tonight." He told her. She nodded in acceptance and waited for him to put the day's potion up on the board. He flicked his wand at the board causing a potion she had already brewed to appear, she flushed when she realized what it was the Polyjuice Potion.
"Professor, who will we be turning into?" She asked him curiously.
"No one, Ms Granger, you will be helping me stock up on the potion for the Ministry Of Magic, well those that can pass my examination." He added glaring at Neville Longbottom. "You will be working in groups of 4, 2 Slytherins and 2 Gryffindors." He informed his class. "I will be assigning you to the groups: Malfoy, Nott, Weasley, Potter; Granger, Longbottom, Goyle, Crabbe; Zablini, Parkenson, Thomas, Finnigan." The list went on and on. The groups were moved to specific seating and allowed to begin to quietly talk about who was doing what on the potion.
"Neville get the ingredients, Goyle, the cleanest caldron you can find, Crabbe, get a clean knife. I will set up the area and begin to prepare the ingredients for when they are needed. Then all we need to do is put them in when needed to keep the potion from going critical while we are brewing it." Hermione said to her group. The boys rushed off to do as she asked of them while she cleaned the area they were to be brewing their potion in. Neville was the first one back, followed by Crabbe and Goyle. She cast cleaning charms on the caldron and the knife before she set them to begin the potions base and putting the heat on at the correct temperature. She showed Neville how to cut the ingredients and left him to it so she could begin grinding some of the ingredients while directing the two Slytherins to mash up the other ingredients and helping whenever one of them began to make a mistake. She noticed that, like her, Malfoy was making sure Harry and Ron didn't mess the potion up. She snorted at the reminder of how bad they truly are at brewing potions. Once they finished preparing the ingredients her group began adding the ingredients in the proper time and order. When the potion needed to simmer for 3 days she cast a bubble charm over the lid, keeping it from exploding should anything go wrong in the time between classes. It would also keep people from sabotaging it. Hermione waited after class for Professor Snape to see the clear room.
"Ms. Granger, what do you want?" He demanded of his witch.
"What do you think I want, Severus?" She asked coyly, getting a shiver of delight from him. He responded by casting a locking charm at the door followed by his usual wards to keep students out of his room while he was busy. He smiled at her and used a silent spell to strip her of her cloths. Her gasp of shock at the cold air just served to arouse him more, causing him to stand at attention.
"Mine." He growled into her ear. She flushed and pressed against him, wanton for his touch.
"Just as you are mine." She answered with a slow grin.
"Come on, Witch." He answered her grin with a seductive glance at her body. They went through his office to his private chambers leaving a trail of his cloths along the way. Hermione could feel herself getting wetter and wetter as they moved towards his bedroom. She allowed him to push her, gently, onto his huge bed; letting out gasps and moans showing her enjoyment of his worship of her body as he began kissing it all over.
"Severus!" She called out as he enveloped her lower lips in his mouth. His mouth gave no quarter as he teased her into screams of delight. He pulled away when her juices were flowing freely from her. He moved up her body paying attention to her breasts and lips. By the time he was in position to enter her she was weeping both above and below for him to become one with her. He pushed into her tight entrance slowly, knowing how much she likes him to go fast, and wanting to draw out her wild side. "Severus." She whined at him pushing her hips against his, trying to speed him up. He gave her a slow grin that was driving her crazy.
"Tell me what you want." He ordered her not moving any faster. She pushed up against him again, tightening her muscles around him. He groaned at the sensations her actions were causing. "Tell me!" He bit out.
"More!" She gasped as he sped up a little. "Yes, Faster!" She cried out as he began moving at a much faster pace. She tilted her hips allowing him deeper within her sex. His thrusts were becoming erratic as he continued to speed up making Hermione scratch, creating bloody furrows along his back as she was sent over the edge with him following quickly behind. Once they came down from the mutual high he cast a tempest charm and found out it was nearly dinner time, so they dressed rapidly and went to eat dinner in the Great Hall. Along the way to the Great Hall, they chatted lightly about how everyone would take the news of their relationship, Hermione's look of shock and fear caused him to stop talking.
"Hermione?" He asked concern showing on his face.
"Ron, what are you staring at?" She demanded of her friend.
"You are walking with and talking with that GIT?!" Ron exploded at her. "YOU ARE MINE AND I WILL NOT GIVE YOU TO HIM!" He yelled at his female friend.
"I do not belong to you, Ronald." She snapped at him. "If I want to speak and walk with Professor Snape then I will. Because. I. AM. NO. ONE'S. PROPERTY!" She shouted at him.
"Under Pureblood Laws, I have the right to claim a muggleborn 'under' my protection." Ron shot out hotly. "That means that I can order you around and you will have to obey or lose your rights as a witch." He sneered at her, letting his eyes roam her body with blatant lust. "Unless one of the 'Most Ancient and Noble' houses want to to claim you overthrowing the Noble house of Weasley." He added.
"Weasley, your ignorance is a disgrace to all purebloods." Draco Malfoy pointed out from just outside the hall doors. "A disgraced house can't claim a muggleborn." He added, sneering at the idiot.
"We can because it was disgraced due to a disagreement with another house." Weasley snarled at Malfoy.
"You are not the Lord or Heir of Weasley, so you can't claim her." Draco retorted in a haughty tone.
"Why do you care, your family hates muggleborns." Ron growled at his family's rival.
"You are the one yelling at my Godfather." Draco answered in return.
"Both of you cut it out before I take points from both houses." Snape interrupted the idiots arguing over HIS witch.
"Sir, she is an unclaimed, brilliant witch that could be a benefit to any pureblood house." Draco reminded him.
"She isn't." Snape answered his godson.
"What isn't she, unclaimed or brilliant?" Draco asked looking at his godfather in shock.
"She isn't unclaimed, Draco." Another male voice drawled from the entrance of the school.
"Father?" Draco asked at the same time Snape said.
"Lucius?" The looks of shock on both of their faces, along with Lord Malfoy's words, causing Hermione to crack up laughing.
"Ms. Granger, are you feeling quite well?" Lucius asked the young woman, who had dropped to the floor laughing hard.
"The look-" Hermione gasped, "on their faces." She continued laughing herself breathless, "Too funny." She ended her long laughter actually crying at the still shocked faces around her. She turned her attention to Lucius, who was extending his hand to help her up. "Thank you, Lord Malfoy." She said calling upon the etiquette she was taught as an extremely young child. His look of shock was better hidden than his son's, but it was still there. She smiled at the shocked Lord and answered the question in all of their eyes. "I was adopted by the Granger's." She announced to the group of people around them. "How did you think I was getting everything so quickly?" She commented lightly.
"Who are your real parents?" Severus asked looking at her in shock.
"My Parent's names are..." She was cut off when Dumbledore showed up and interrupted.
"What seems to be the problem?" He asked knowing that something was amiss.
"Nothing, Headmaster." Hermione answered quickly sending a plea in her eyes not to mention her adoption. "Mr. Malfoy, was merely helping me up from when I fell." She explained even quicker than her first answering.
"Thank you for aiding a Muggleborn Student, Lucius." Dumbledore said sounding astonishingly sarcastic.
"Muggleborn or not she is a lady and does not belong on the floor." Lucius answered, making it sound as if he were upset that he had to touch her.
"If we are done fawning over Ms. Granger, can we eat now?" Severus drawled slowly, causing Hermione's underwear to become damp. She looked up into his eyes, allowing him to see the knowledge through Legitimacy, causing his eyes to heat up.
"Sorry, Professor Snape." Hermione apologized.
"Five points from Gryffindor." He answered snappishly.
"Now Severus, that is unfair. She fell, it's not like she was holding you up on purpose." Dumbledore said gently to the Potion's Master.
"She is not in her seat and is going to have detention with myself for disrespecting a professor." He informed his employer.
"Very well, Severus, just take it easy on her." The headmaster said with a sigh.* Some people never change. He better not find out about her real family.* Dumbledore thought as he turned away and moved to his seat at the center of the table for teachers.
"Thank you, Professor Snape, I will explain everything while in 'detention'." She offerred them before walking away from them knowing that Lord Malfoy would be there for her explaination.
"I hope he forgives me for not telling him before." She whispered into the empty hall. Hermione moved into the Great Hall and sat beside her friends eating dinner and turning towards Snape and waiting for him to enter her mind. *What time is my detention?* She asked him from her mind. He nodded when he received her question and allowed her into his own mind.
7, Let your friends know. He answered her knowing that she would do as he asked. She nodded letting him know the message would be passed along.
"Ron, Harry, we need to meet up at 7, I have something to tell you both." She whispered to her best friends. They both nodded, though Harry looked more confused than Ron.
"No worries, Hermione, we will be there." Harry assured her. Ron just glared at her knowing that, whatever the news was, it would put her into a more secure social status and keep her away from him if she so desired.
"It is about what we were talking about in the hall." She informed him, hoping that he wouldn't blow up in such a public place.
"Whatever, Hermione." He snarled at his former friend.
"Ron, we can't chose our parents." She growled at him, sounding almost demonic.
"I don't care, Mione." Ron spat at her, just as he finished speaking the bell for end of dinner rang. She grabbed Harry's hand and lead him away from the rest of the Gryffindor students, and towards the dungeons.
"Why are we heading to the potions' classroom?" Harry asked her, raising an eyebrow at her flushed face.
"There is a few things you need to know about me." She answered vaguely. "The first is that I am in a relationship with Professor Snape." She stated to her best friend as she opened the door to Snape's office. She then walked up to him, ignoring the looks of confusion from both Lucius and Draco as she swept past them and planted herself in Severus's lap.
"Ms. Granger, that isn't an appropriate place for a female student to sit." Lucius commented, looking at the mysterious girl before him with barely conceiled disgust.
"Lord Malfoy, my name is Hermione. I would prefer you call me that as opposed to Ms. Granger." The witch informed the Lord of the Malfoy clan.
"Very well, Hermione." Lucius amended politely. "That still isn't proper for a female student to do." He repeated himself, her widening smirk drew his attention.
"It is not improper as long as I am of age. And besides, we are betrothed." She retorted to the Blonde Lord. "It is an old contract with my family's woman, it is called the Family Eternal Contract." She informed the group. "I merely had to accept the Prince Blood Heir as my betrothed." She said with a smile. Snape kissed her neck as she was speaking.
"That means you are an heiress to one of the most ancient or royal Houses." Draco said in awe. "Which one is it?"
"Royal." She answered instantly. "Born of a Squib and a Wizard." She told them with a smile.
"Who?" Harry cut in reminding them of his presence. Her face fell as she looked at him.
"My mother was of the Hufflepuff bloodline." Hermione informed them. "I had to keep the Sorting Hat from blurting it out to everyone." She giggled remembering the fight she had with it.
"Who is your father?" Draco asked shocked that the Princess of Hufflepuff was sitting before him.
"I don't know." She answered. "All I know is that he was a wizard, I don't even know if he is still alive." She informed them softly.
"A family tree potion should allow you to find out." Severus informed her, gently kissing her neck again.
"How long does it take to brew?" She asked him.
"45 Min." He answered instantly.
"Let's get started then." She said jumping up and pulling out a textbook before flipping though it to find the potion mentioned. Once she found it she began pulling out the ingredients she would need for it. She stopped to look at Professor Snape. "It needs Dragon's blood." She reminded him. "That isn't in the student section of ingredients." She reminded him as he just looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "Severus, may I get the Dragon's blood from your stores?" She asked politely.
"You may." He answered her finally. The potion's master watched as she pulled out the required ingredient. She then pulled out a vial of potion that he smirked at her. "Stealing an unknown potion from my stores?" He asked smiling at her, his tone teasing.
"It is one of my potions." She answered him with a pout.
"What potion is that, Hermione?" Harry asked looking at her confused as to why she would have it in the potion master's private store room.
"Contraceptive." She answered shortly, causing him to blush as she downed it quickly. Hermione then went back to the cauldron and poured the exact amount of Dragon's Blood into the cauldron. She let it simmer for 5 minutes and then began stirring clockwise as she added the next 5 ingredients, making sure that she went counter clockwise on every fifth stir. Once all of the ingredients were added she looked at them and sighed, "It will take 10 more minutes until it is finished." She informed them with a bored look. They were all watching her in fascination as she completed the potion with ease. Once it was completed she bottled it up in several vials and then turned towards Severus for more instructions.
"How many generations do you want to go back?" He inquired.
"3, That should help me find out if I have any living grandparents." She said lightly.
"Okay three drops of blood in your vial, then spread it out on the parchment." Severus instructed softly, Hermione did as directed and was shocked by the results.
"Who are you related to?" Harry asked looking at the horror written on her face.
"Hermione?" Severus asked approaching her, gently reaching for her. "What is it?" He asked her holding her close.
"I am a double royal." She answered, knowing that Harry would understand what she was saying. His look of shock and fear was all the conformation she required.
"No, not him." Harry whispered softly, knowing that both Death Eaters would have to report it upon their Master's next summoning. Severus looked at the parchment and raised an eyebrow, not knowing why they were reacting the way they were.
"Tom Marvolo Riddle?" He asked looking at them not understanding their horror. Hermione lifted her wand and wrote the name in the air before flicking her wand to rearrainge the letters to say I AM LORD VOLDEMORT. The shock on both of the Death Eaters faces would have been comical, if it weren't for the fact that he was the father of Hermione.
"You are the Dark Lord's lost child." Lucius said, dropping to his knees before the princess of the dark sect.
"I am now the true heiress to Hogwarts, and the Wizarding Throne." She said in shock, those words got everyone else to fall to their knees before her.
"Hail the new ruler of Magical England." Lucius intoned followed by Severus. "I, Lord Lucius Malfoy, Pledge myself to your protection and care."
"I, Lord Severus Snape Prince, Pledge myself to your protection and care." Severus stated looking at her in awe right after his oldest Slytherin friend.
"Wow, I have been hanging out with royalty." Harry said, causing Hermione to laugh at his obvious attempt to lighten the mood.
"Thank you for your pledges, but you both are already sworn to another." She reminded them with a quick look at the words still floating in the air. "I wager he will wish to meet with me." She said with a sigh. "I will alert him to my bloodline, sending it to him through one of you." She informed the Death Eaters, they nodded and suddenly groaned in unison, their marks flaring. Without thinking of the consiquences, Hermione wrapped her arms around Severus, and was shocked when she was apperated away with him, to visit her father apparently.
