Chapter 4: Lies and Truth
Hermione opened her eyes. Daylight was around. She found herself on a soft and comfy bed.
Oh god. I'm in Snape's bed... she was freaking out inside her head. Ew...
Right after her mind said this, Snape was watching from the corner of the room. "You are up, my dear."
"Oh can it." Hermione snapped. "You have some nerve.."
"I would watch what I say, Miss Dragomir, because I have complete control of what happens to you if you act up."
Hermione glared at him with hatred and got up from the bed. She noticed she was in her pajamas from last night. "Don't think I forgot about Dumbledore. You'll pay for that. Just you wait."
Snape darted towards Hermione and grabbed her by her arms. "Say that again!?!?!?" he sneered and shook her.
"What goes around come back around." Eww..slimy and cold...
"Not this time, my dear." Snape brought her up against him. Hermione struggled once more.
"Let go of me!" Hermione tried to push him off. He lunged at her and planted a bruising kiss on Hermione. Hermione nearly gagged. He let go.
Hermione's face still glaring with hate, but fear was tinted in as well.
"We'll finish this later. Now, the Dark Lord needs to have a word with you." he grabbed her by her left arm and apparated to Little Hangelton.
When they arrived, Snape let go, pointing his wand at Hermione. "Stay."
Hermione swallowed hard. Voldemort entered with the rest of the Death Eaters.
Severus bowed. "My Lord. You summoned?"
"Yes I did." he slithered. "Bring her here."
Snape did so. Hermione was facing the Dark Lord.
His dark piercing eyes looked into her honey brown ones. "Miss Dragomir, it seems that my men have recovered a letter from Potter, and it was written to you."
Hermione gasped and covered her mouth with her hands. "How did you find that?" she said inside them.
"You left it in your room, Miss Dragomir."
"Why would you go through that?"
"It states that someone close to me would no longer be on my side, but he failed to mention who. He also asks if you have any idea who it could be..." Voldemort snorted. "Do you?"
"Nnoo...and if I did, I wouldn't tell you."
"You lie."
"No..I"
"Crucio!" he cried. The spell caused her to bellow in pain, and collapse onto the ground. A tear came down.
"I'm not lying!" Hermione yelled.
"Listen here, Miss Dragomir." he boomed. "Just because you are a pureblood, doesn't mean that mudblood heart is still inside of you. You will learn to obey me and my followers. Understand?"
Hermione shook her head. "Then kill me."
"Oh, it's not that simple, Miss Dragomir. And you being a sacrifice for our enemy will not be accepted."
"I already have someone else after me, so, the choice is yours." Hermione couldn't believe she was saying these things. If death is my only way out, I'll see where it takes me..she told herself.
"And who may this be?"
Hermione thought on it a bit, she had to make up something. "The Verona family." she replied without hesitation. It's worth a shot...
She picked Verona since she thought she was the greatest of Dracula's brides. Dracula and the others in the movie popped into Hermione's head. God, how she loved that movie. And it reminded her of her fate with the King of Vampires.
"My ancestors helped kill one of their sons' true loves, and well, they still want revenge."
The lie seemed to be believed by Voldemort, which surprised Hermione.
"And how long ago was this?"
"It started over 100 years ago." Hermione was trying to gain her strength. "And if they kill me, then they have won."
Voldemort stroked his chin with his hand. "Very well, we will add them to our enemies list.."
Hermione's head was relieved. Like taking candy from a baby..
"Severus, do what you wish to your bride to be.." Voldemort hissed. "I am finished with the both of you for now."
"Yes my Lord."
Snape escorted Hermione out and apparated with the girl.
And Snape had wicked intentions in mind.
Hermione stood quietly when they re-entered the house. She jerked free from Snape's grasp.
"How dare you embarrass me in front of the Dark Lord."
"Me? Embarrass you? How is that so?"
"By lying to my Lord."
"You knew who Potter was talking about."
"If I did, I would have said something!" Hermione raised her voice a bit.
Anger flickered in Snape's eyes. He came closer, and Hermione took a chair that nearby and picked it up to use for defense.
"Stay away from me!" Hermione yelled.
With a flick of his wand, the chair went flying into the wall. Hermione ran. Snape pursued. She ended up locking herself in what she was certain was his office. She barricaded it with chairs and the desk. Something that looked like paper was sticking out of one of the cabinets. She rushed towards it to see what it was. She opened the cabinet.
"Come out, my pet.." Snape snickered. Hermione looked in horror at the cabinet. There were pictures of her there. At the Yule Ball, snippets from the Daily prophet and everything else. There was a tiny book on one of the shelves. Hermione took it and flipped through the pages. there was one that caugh her attention. She could still here Snape yelling at her.
December 25th
It is the Yule Ball today. Miss Granger is going to this event. I expect she will look lovely as always.
Hermione's mouth was gaped open. She could tell it was from her 4th year. The page was kind of old and ratty. Hermione looked at the next day's entry. Miss Granger is the only thing keeping me from trying to ditch the ball.
December 26th
Hermione looked simply stunning. How I wish I could have been dancing with her. Even next to her would be good enough. Too bad that stupid Weasley made her cry. It was terrible. I saw it when I came back from breaking up the other students kissing in the carriages. I guarantee I would have treated her better.
Hermione wanted to vomit. she put another chair against the door.
"Let me in, damnit!" Snape howled. Hermione began to breath frantically. "Don't make me come in there, my pet."
Pet?? Hermione's mind was freaking out again. She skimmed to find a more recent entry in his journal.
July 1st
Hermione Realized that was yesterday.
My Lord said that we need Miss Granger(now Miss Dragomir because of her real identity) is needed to produce an heir. Since I killed that old fool named Albus Dumbeldore, Voldemort gave me permission to marry her as an award. It's like my wildest fantasies are to come true. I knew Dumbledore's death would result in my favor. I can't wait till we retrieve her. Don't worry Hermione, you will be mine soon.
She heard a blast from the door. She turned around and saw that Snape had in fact broke down everything. The office was a mess. His anger rose. She looked down at the book.
Terror graced her expression.
She backed up, but only hit the cabinet, and fell inside it. He opened its doors.
"Get up!" He barked.
Hermione shook her head. "You're vile and foul. How?" she started to cry. "I trusted you for years. And..why?"
"Get up.." he gritted through his teeth. Hermione stumbled up. Snape grabbed her and thrust her into him. Hermione screamed. He planted slimy kisses on her neck, and then to her lips. Hermione bit his tongue after it went in her throat. She let go and broke free and started to run. But he was quick, and took out his wand.
"Imperio." he cried. She was standing still.
"Come to me." he commanded. The spell brought her to him. His tongue still bleeding. With a wand movement, the spell was broken. He picked her up by her waist. "You'll pay for that, my love."
Hermione was banging her fists on his back and crying. She kept pleaded for him to free her. In a sickening way, he enjoyed her suffering.
AN: Basically, I am not good at writing sexual scenes, so, I am telling you now that Hermione does get raped by Snape. Thought it would help intensify the plot. So, next chapter will be a bit brighter, and will make the story faster. I will explain everything. Please Read and Review. And don't hate me. I kind of hate myself for writing the chapter's ending, but I had to. Hope you still like the story.
