Treacherous Love

Chapter Ten

Going for it All

It seemed the days blended together as they spent time together constantly. They had not been intimate again since that one night. Hermione was scared. Their wedding night was tomorrow night and tonight they wouldn't be together. Looking across to the man she was having breakfast with she wondered if he would be just as gentle as he promised.

Her study of him did not go unnoticed. He could feel her innocent eyes on him, studying him. This morning it took everything he had from assaulting her. She was as tempting as she lay beside him softly snoring grinding herself into him. When he extricated himself from her he immediately retreated to the bathroom to have the coldest shower of his life. He felt like a teenage boy now, all it took was her to look at him for him to go hard and want to pant after her like a lost puppy dog. No woman had control over him like this, now even Lily.

It had been over a month since the Dark Lord had called him to perform though which he was thankful he did not have to sleep with lose women that served him he felt like he was about to explode. It was rare his entire time as a Deatheater to go this long without sex, even a couple weeks was rare. He was lost in thought of how he treated those women. A virgin had never been presented to him. He never participated in the raping that many of the men enjoyed so much and the Dark Lord would not force him to do anything like that. So he kept to the woman that had so many partners that his violent nature with sex barely fazed them and only half could barely walk away after he was done. How could he be gentle with her when he never knew gentle sex before? The thought of asking someone would be painful and incredibly embarrassing.

Tomorrow night he would bed his new wife and she would be scared and tense. Controlling himself would be the hardest. Since he never had to use control when fucking women in front of the dark lord he had no self control when it came to being intimate with someone. The girl was so innocent and almost being raped did not help the matter. She was incredibly sexual under all the stress and worry that she carried with her. All it took was a few rubs and she was ready to orgasm. He wondered to ask her if she had ever orgasm before since most girls were exploring much more things by the time they were fourteen. It felt like he was in the 1700s when women came to the marriage bed pure and frightened often the night ending in tears and more blood than was necessary. In the morning the sheets would be examined and the more blood the prouder the husband.

Stupid marriage law had to make things so complicated for him. He would have showed his interest if it had not of suddenly popped up. He was sure she would have reciprocated. Now a month before she was to graduate he would have to bed her. The rumors that would fly after this weekend would ruin her and then to have to do a speech in front of all the parents and students. Even as the cold water flowed over his body he could barely care. The less cold shower he had to take the better. If she was willing it could even mean that she would be passionate towards him.

Now as he thought back to his cold shower that morning he tried to keep his eyes from making contact with her as he ate his toast. But as soon as her eyes gave up and then returned to her book and tea his eyes were on her instantly.

She was no amazing beauty, she was normal. She was not skinny but had meat on her. Her legs were powerful with muscle instead of thin with bone. Her face was not perfect as freckles dotted her nose and cheeks slightly. Her eyes were intent on her book as her chocolate brown eyes shifted side to side. He could feel his arousal coming back and went back to his breakfast. He hoped she would enjoy their intimacy because he was not to sure on how well he would be able to control himself when the intimacy finally came. He would become obsessed. She was like a fine wine as soon as you took a sip you wanted to get lost in the bottle.

"Severus?" Hermione stated as he brought his eyes up to look at her.

"Yes?"

"Can we go to Diagon Alley today?" she asked hopeful he would say yes.

"Sure," he stated sipping his hot tea.

"Like before lunch?" she asked hesitantly

"We can leave in an hour or so if you choose," he stated and smirked as she smiled. Knowing her she wanted to get some more books.

Hermione knew their wedding was tomorrow and it scared her. She wished she could open up and let him introduce her to the world of lust but something inside of her held her back. She watched him shrug on his coat as they were in his study ready to travel by floo. His shoulders were broad and his hair was soft as it waved with his movements. She was completely smitten with him and her heart gave an extra beat as he looked over to her watching him. Quickly diverting her eyes she waited for him to walk to the floo.

Severus offered his arm and Hermione gladly took it. She felt the muscle ripple down his arm as she held it tight to her side as they walked into the fire.

Severus felt pride fill his chest as he escorted his soon to be wife through Diagon Alley as peoples heads turned to stare. Men's eyes racked up and down her frame and he smirked knowing she was his and only his. Hermione of course was oblivious to the attention she was being given. Instead her attention was on Flourish and Blotts which made him chuckle, he was beginning to know her so well.

Holding open the door Hermione blushed up to him before quickly entering and heading to a bookshelf before he could event get into the bookstore. Making his way over to the potions section he might as well start looking for books himself. Before he could even take down the first book to read Hermione was beside him looking as if she had an itch. Her eager face looked up to him.

"I'm ready to go," she stated, he looked down to her arms to see a book carefully wrapped up in her arms.

"I think that was the quickest you have ever been done in a bookstore," Severus chuckled, "What did you get?"

"Just a book," Hermione stated as she tucked it closer to herself.

Severus couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow at her secrecy. He would see the book when they got home.

"I am not finished so you will have to wait," Severus stated turning away from her to the book he was about to pull down. From the corner of his eye he could see her shift from one foot to the other as if she were on burning coals. He wondered what was so important that they had to leave immediately. He smirked as he slowly thumbed through the potions book. It was one he did not already have, he knew he was going to buy it but he dragged it on as much as possible just to see Hermione's anxiety levels rise.

Finally when they were out of the store Hermione made a bee line for the floos as fast as he could all the while Severus chuckling. Severus smirked as he watched her legs trying to carry her as quick as possible as to not give away anything. Whatever the girl's book was she did not want him to know about no matter what?

Once through the floo Severus could hear Hermione in their room rustling things around. He could tell she was hiding the book so he couldn't find it. The girl though she was the smartest person besides himself that he knew sometimes she was incredibly foolish.

Hermione presented herself her cheeks slightly flushed. Severus smirked and went to sit at the table that was still set up in the study and sat waiting for the house elves to bring lunch.

"I am guessing you got what you need from the bookstore?" Severus asked he watched as Hermione blushed and nodded.

Hermione knew something was up, he must know that the book was something personal. It was hidden well in their bedroom in a place where he never went but nevertheless she was nervous of what he would think of her if he found it. Tonight when he was marking papers she would collect it from its hiding place and read it away from his prying eyes. For now though her stomach was empty and protesting. They had spent over an hour in the bookstore and she knew Severus took extra long on purpose so to make her more nervous. She knew him better than that, he was a quick guy he knew what he wanted and took it. There was no second guessing or long term decision making for him.

Their meal was silent and all Hermione could hope for was that he soon went to his office and started marking. She could barely taste what she was eating and she forced herself to chew to pass the time. Soon Severus was finished and his plate disappeared.

"I'm going to have a shower then mark papers," Severus stated as he got up and left through the bedroom door. Hermione let her breathe go that she had not realized she had been holding and felt her body relax. Hermione played around with her food for a bit before she got up and went through the bedroom door. Throwing herself on the bed she hugged her pillow to her.

As she lay there for what seemed like an hour the shower was still not running. Realization hit her and she sat up in horror. He couldn't know where she had put it; she even put wards around it to deter someone from finding it. Getting up she could feel her heart beat in her throat as she walked towards the bathroom door. There was no sound of water and as she stood against the door. Her body battled with her to open or not open the door and take the ridicule.

He stood there in nothing but his trousers as her book was on the vanity and his head was bent reading it. Hermione stood there preoccupied by his body. Hermione had seen it only once and only for a bit and it had not helped that it had been almost completely dark. Now in the bright bathroom his body was amazing. For being half a decade from forty he looked like he could be no older than 30. He was not some beach body guy but his chest was well defined and a small shadow of abs could just be seen. A flash of heat rushed up against her as she felt her breathe hitch. The passion she had felt the first night with Severus was back in full force.

"Starring is very rude Hermione," Severus stated smirking.

"I want my book back," Hermione demanded finally finding her voice. All she got was a smirk from him as he kept reading.

"Who would have thought that Hermione Granger would have a book like this," Severus stated, as he looked up from the book to his soon to be wife.

"Its mine and you have no business touching or let alone reading it," Hermione stated, she felt ashamed but offended at the same time.

Severus picked up the book and with it in his hand walked to his wife so his chest was almost flush to her and looked down at her. Her head instantly shot down to stare at his chest and he could see the tale tell blush that he loved so much.

"Hermione, if you had questions all you had to do was ask," Severus stated as he pulled her chin up to look at him. Her eyes were watered and she avoided his eyes.

"I didn't know how," Hermione stated as she felt more shame build up inside of her.

"I am sorry I should have sat down and explained things a bit better," Severus stated as he hugged the girl to him, the feel of her breath on his chest made his blood rush. He pushed away his passion for her.

"Let's sit down and talk for a bit," Severus stated and Hermione broke contact and swung away and was soon sitting on the bed waiting for him. Her hands were in her lap and he could feel her body tighten as he sat beside her.

"I'm sorry I didn't come to you but we are getting married tomorrow and I didn't know what else to do," Hermione stated. She was filled with apprehension and anxiety. Tomorrow she would have sex for the first time and it frightened her beyond belief. She had hoped so much that they would have a couple days of fooling around to prepare her but it seemed time moved too fast for them. Before she knew it they had done nothing and it was the day before their wedding.

"If you ever have any questions you can always come to me and I will answer them for you," Severus stated, he almost chuckled if things were not so serious. Never had he met such a sexually repressed girl. Hermione finally looked up at him and smiled. Severus felt himself getting aroused as she smiled at him. As of recently he couldn't control his libido which was usually easily contained. This woman, this goddess made his penis yearns for freedom into her. Even at odd moments he thought of his soon to be wife, in class, in staff meetings and even at order meetings.

"Its just I have so many questions and I didn't want to push you," she stated watching his expressions.

"Hermione you are going to be my wife and I want my wife happy," Severus stated, "and I also want my wife to have passion for me."

"I do," Hermione blurted out suddenly blushing.

"It's nothing to be ashamed of," Severus laughed as he moved his body so he was facing her.

"Its just I don't know what to do, you are older and much more experienced," Hermione stated.

"That may be but I have never been with someone I actually care for or someone as innocent as you."

"I am sorry."

"That is nothing to be sorry about, I am just sorry that I did not think of you."

Hermione was happy that he was no angry or disappointed in her. It was relieving that she had nothing to be ashamed of. Looking up at him she could feel his passion in his eyes. Before she knew what she was doing she launched herself at him.

Before Severus could say anything the girl was on top of him on the bed and her tongue was in his mouth. He was taken back momentarily and soon his arms were around her as he relished in her warmth.

Hermione felt as if something had taken hold of her as she ground herself against her soon to be husband. He said she should not be ashamed and so she acted on how she felt. If she was doing something wrong he would say something she was sure of it. The feel of his roughened tongue against her own was enthralling. Her heart felt like it would soon beat out of her chest. Severus grabbed her waist and pressed their pelvis's together harder making her gasp. Hermione relished in his size and for a moment she was not scared of the consummation that would occur her body was on fire and an irrational need for him to ravish her with the battering ram inside of his pants took over her. Severus's hand slide up her side pulling her closer making Hermione gasp just as there was a loud knock on the door.

Hermione could hear the growl in his chest and giggled while still holding her blush.

"This better be important," Severus stated as he gently settled Hermione on the bed before walking out of his bedroom to his door. Soon he was back looking if anything annoyed.

"Who was it?" Hermione asked.

"It would seem that you are to have your bachelorette party tonight so there are some ladies here to take you out," Snape stated, Hermione could hear the anger in his voice as he was holding back as best he could.

"Oh, okay," Hermione stated as she got up and smoothed down her shirt and jeans. Settling herself she exited the bedroom all the while blushing with the stare of her soon to be husband running up and down her.

Opening the door she was bombarded with smiles and screams of surprise. There stood McGonagall, Pomphrey, Luna, Ginny, Tonks, Parvati, Patil, Lavender, and Harry. She couldn't help but smile at all of them.

"Hope you're ready for a fun night in Hogsmeade," Ginny stated.

"I guess so, I didn't think I was going to have a bachelorette party," Hermione stated.

"Every girl needs a bachelorette party," Minerva stated chuckling.

"Alright just let me say goodbye to Severus and I will be right back," Hermione stated as the girls all giggled at her use of his first name. Hermione quickly turned making sure the door was closed enough so the girls wouldn't see and gave Severus a chaste kiss.

"I'll see you tomorrow my wife," Severus stated, Hermione wished she wasn't going with the girls but going to lay in bed with him.

"I won't see you till tomorrow?" Hermione asked.

"You will sleep in the room of requirements so you can get ready for tomorrow while I will stay here with my groomsmen," Severus stated, he bent down and kissed her one more time long enough to feel her respond and then he ended it.

"Alright see you tomorrow Severus," Hermione stated as she blushed and quickly headed out of the door to her last night as a single woman.

I have no idea where my Beta is so you are going to have to put up with the unedited story because my grammar sucks. People have been asking for this update for so long and I'm so sorry for taking so long with it. I just finished my college school year and I was busy studying quite a bit but I'm back. In between working like crazy this summer I will be trying to be a loyal writer for you all and update as much as possible.
