Chapter 4
Recap:
"I'm going to kill you for what you've done!" she yelled at him, taking a step forward. He just laughed at her, not moving an inch away. "No you're not" he just stated confident.
"Yes I am!" she just yelled at his calm, superior statement.
"No. Even if you wanted to, which you don't, you couldn't."
"And why is that?" she asked confused.
"Because I turned you. You can't kill your master."
"You're not my…" she yelled offended, while blushing lightly.
"Yes I am. And you better get used to it." He smirked at her, while she instead of blushing grew quite pale.

She stared at him. Something told her that he was telling the truth, but yet she didn't dare to believe it. He moved closer to her, reaching out his hand.
"Here, have a taste. I can see in your eyes that you have been starving yourself." She took a look at his blood covered hand. Like she would ever do such a thing! But she couldn't look anywhere else. It smelled so delicious. It was what she needed, she knew that. Draco smirked, and knew that she had been starving too long, to possible be able to push away such an offer. Hermione felt her legs move forward on their own. She lightly grabbed his hand, leading it to her mouth. She licked it slowly, taking in the taste of it.
"You know, if you want to, that woman can give you more of what you need," he gestured to the young lady lying on the ground. To taste the blood had only made her want more of it. Her hunger wasn't gone at all.
"No. What if I kill her," she asked with a shaking voice.
"You won't," he said, "I only had just bitten her when you found me. You can have plenty and still avoiding her death. She will be a bit dizzy in the morning though." It took all she got not to go to the woman. She wouldn't do it. She wouldn't! Draco began to seem impatient.
"Look, it's how we survive. Denying you self to feed will kill you. And it's the only way to control your hunger. Wouldn't want you to kill the Weasel… Or maybe I would like you to, but that's not my business." Again he smirked. She wanted to yell at him, but she couldn't concentrate. Draco took her hand, leading her to the woman. All she could do was to follow. She didn't know if it was because of Dracos so-called 'master'-position, or because her instincts was dominating her mind, like they did right now.
She sank down beside the woman. Her hair was still pulled aside, exposing her skin. She could see the mark on her neck after Dracos teethes. It was already healing. She studied the marks for some few seconds. Maybe this was why it was so rare that reports on vampire attacks turned in. If your memory was erased, you would probably just believe that had been drinking too much and passed out.
She leaned down and took in the scent of her blood. It made her heart go faster, and she felt her mind get clouded. Her instincts took over. She traced the unknown woman's neck with her lift. She slowly opened her mouth, and sank her fangs into the skin. They breached through easily, and she felt the warm liquid on her lips.
As her hunger was gone and her senses came back to her she quickly withdrew. Horrified barely described how she felt right now. How could she?! She felt the side of the woman's neck. She was still alive. Hermione calmed a bit. Draco looked at her satisfied. Maybe it was a good thing she starved herself. Otherwise I doubt I could have made her do it. Hermiones expression was accusing when she turned around. Beginning the discussion Drace had started earlier, when she wasn't able to control her actions.
"By the way. If you hate Ron that much, why haven't you done anything to him" she asked wondering. Draco looked like she had just told him the funniest thing in the world.
"Why? Geez Granger I got standards. And junk food isn't really my thing," he laughed at her. Hermione felt the anger rise in her. By offending Ron he hit her. He was her boyfriend for God's sake!
"So you basically believe that sluts from bars are better than noble men like Ron?" she asked disbelieved. Draco stood still like he was considering something for a short while.
"Eh, so?" He answered confident.
"I don't believe you! You are just so-so-so. Argh forget it! I don't even know why I am talking to you!" she yelled frustrated again. Making a move to leave. She had only taken a few step away from Draco, before he stopped her.
"I think we should make a deal Granger"
"If I can't kill you I won't have anything to do with you."
"What if it could help your friends?"
"And how would it help them that we made a deal?"
"It stops you from killing them." Hermiones attention was now caught. It scared her, what she could do to them, and therefore didn't spent time with them at all. But she was already starting missing them, and she felt kinda cold and bitchy by avoiding them.
"Okay Draco, what 'deal' are we talking about?"
"I will help you control your power," he just stated.
"And?" she added.
"And what?"
"What do I have to do in return?" Yeah of course. A deal usually consisted of two people each agreeing on doing something. Draco just hadn't considered this. He actually wanted to teach her. Hey, It could be fun. Anyways his life was beginning to get a bit boring. He would admit this to her, so he instead made something up.
"A favor. But I can't tell you the details now… so, are you in?" he asked.
Hermione looked thoughtful, and really considered her options. Caring for her friend, and at the same time don't wanna be apart from them forever, she didn't really think she had a choice.
"Okay Draco, I agree. Just know that I won't do anything you ask me." She had her arms crossed over her chest, and she eyed him seriously. Draco only smirked at her, but on the inside he was thrilled.
