Chapter 10
"Hey Sev," said Lucius coming in, Sara was at the other side of the room she removed herself from their presence knowing she was not wanted. Plus she did not want to see anything they might be doing.
She did not hear from them for at least two hours thinking they had gone, she headed up the stairs. Opening the door, she slammed it back shut, hard. Making gagging noises, she made her way down the stairs to do something else. She realized there must be something on the room making it quiet.
------
"Do you really need to keep her?" whined Lucius looking put out.
"There is nothing wrong with her," said Severus.
"No. she just landed in the room by accident then?" asked Lucius. It was he who had put the ward up; he just hoped that Severus would give his servant up. He did not want Damon getting annoyed and killing Severus, he was after all a good lay.
"I don't know about that but I'm sure she meant no harm," said Severus making excuses for her. He did not know about the silencing charm that Lucius had erected.
Lucius was trying to make small fights between them both, get Severus to tell him to give her away, or something along those lines. However, he had been shocked when Severus made excuses for her, now that made him angry. Severus was supposed to only like him no one else; he did not appreciate her being in the same house as Severus.
He did not know were this sudden jealousy had flared from, apart from the fact that Severus was sticking up for her made him mad. Severus was his and his alone; growling softly he took Severus all the way making sure the man enjoyed it. Severus was usually a topper, but with Lucius he tolerated being on the bottom.
However, he did not know Severus was getting annoyed with the relationship. Lucius was always demanding and was only around when he wanted to be. He thought perhaps being with men was not what he wanted. He had a woman in the house he could try it with, but she would never do it willingly, there was no one else he knew. He wondered what to do, keep on going with Lucius or end it, groaning he decided he would continue. He could not deny it felt good but many things were missing; besides they could never go publicly together. Lucius was married and it would not do for a Malfoy to be seen walking around with a man. If it was anyone else then yes but Lucius would just refuse to do it, this Severus knew because he had asked many times before.
-----
Lucius left soon after, Severus was hardly devastated he knew this would happen. He just wished he had the guts to finish it and find someone to settle down with. Even if it was a woman, he was not sure now thinking about Sara he wondered if going out with a woman would be so bad. He was lost deep in thought he spent a good bit of the day sitting thinking.
"Sir? Your lunch is ready," said Sara
"I will be down in a minutes, and put a plate for yourself, you can dine with me if you like" said Severus, perhaps he could win her affection?
"Yes Sir," said Sara disappearing down the stairs.
She wondered why the man was all of a sudden letting her eat with him, did he feel sorry for the way he treated her and making it up to her? Perhaps that was why.
It was not long before her master joined her, she sat eating with table manners she did not have. She was just eating the way she remembered her mistress eating. He had watched her eating as she had gave out the rest of them their dinners. It was strange that her mistress was the person she wanted to be like. One thing for sure she did not want to end up dying like her that's for sure. Coming here had stopped her from having that kind of Death or at least she hoped it did.

Months started going by, she and Severus got along greatly, however things kept happening when Lucius Malfoy was here or after. The man seemed to be a trouble magnet for Sara; she knew the man was doing it, making it look her fault, however the worst was about to happen.
While Severus was out, Sara went to her room, and then an explosion rocked the house. She went still what on earth was happening; scared she stayed in her room. However, the house elves were panicking. Their master was going to be so angry with them, they might even be freed. They tried to tidy the mess, a while later Sara ventured from her room, the sight that met her stunned her. The lab was a mess, scorched walls and all the rest of it.
She got to work trying to clean everything as fast as she could, not wanting Severus to be mad that she did not clean the mess up. However, she had no idea that she was going to be blamed for the whole thing.
------------------
Lucius Malfoy left Severus' home and went to the Damon's new home, it was not as nice as the manor they had but it would do.
"How on earth could I have convinced myself to tell Severus about her! She is an idiot! How on earth am I going to get rid of the mud blood" said Lucius pacing back and forth.
"She is a Potter so I seriously doubt it" said Adam Damon smirking.
"What?" asked Lucius wide eyed staring at Adam intently.
"I said she was a Potter so I doubt it" said Adam.
"Are you serious?" asked Lucius shocked.
"Of course, I took her repaying the debt James Potter owned me, no one knows that they were busted many years ago" said Damon funny how it was him who was bust now.
"Fucking hell, I wish you had told me before" said Lucius revenge already taking place in his head.
"Well never mind she was a good fuck" said Adam,
"What?" said Lucius.
"Oh yes, your father loved the sounds she made she was pregnant with your sister that I killed" said Adam smirking.
"Good job you did" said Lucius he shuddered at having to share his fortune with a girl.
"Yes well I've got to go" said Adam in other words telling Lucius to leave.
"Fine, thanks for the information" said Lucius smirking a truly evil smile.
-------------
He quietly crept into Severus' home, knowing he was not there and knowing he would be back pretty soon, he went to the lab and added ingredients that only Lucius had, Lucius had it growing in his manor, a daft thing to do. The potion started bubbling apparating out he smirked knowing that would surly make Severus angry.
He apparated back to Malfoy manor and sat down with a fire whiskey, having a conversation with his son. His son was just like him, he hid it just like Lucius, like his father did.
--------------------------
"What the fuck?" was all Severus could say when he saw the state of his home.
"Sir?" she asked still trying to clean the place, seeing his face turn to stone made her scoot further back. That potion had been a very important long progress potion, now it was ruined.
"What happened" he said his voice hard and cold as steel.
"I-I-I-I don't know" said Sara almost in tears she wish she knew what had happened. Now he was going to send her away she just knew it.
He left the room in silence before flooing to "Malfoy manor," he could not stay in his own home. He did not think he could keep his anger in check when she was around.
"Severus what is the matter?" asked Lucius going over. Draco of course knew of his relationship with Severus, only Narcissa was clueless of what was going on.
"The potion I've been spending months working on is destroyed" said Severus through gritted teeth he was so angry.
"Calm down, here" said Lucius handing Severus the whiskey.
"I can't believe she did that," said Severus shaking his head calming down as the whiskey was downed.
"Send her here if you like, I mean change of scenery and let her get to know Narcissa I'm sure she will gain some confidence," said Lucius not sounding eager as he really was.
"I don't know…," said Severus.
"Well it's that or you so angry at her you hit her," said Lucius being cruel but speaking softly almost comfortably.
"Yeah, I would like someone my age around the manor for once," said Draco piping in.
"Ok then" said Severus sighing softly. Perhaps this was what is best, he did not want to hurt Sara, but damn she had just done something to warrant a good hitting! Not beating, hitting.
"Bring her through when you are ready," said Lucius smoothly.
"Well expect her over soon," said Severus going back to his own manor.
------------
"Pack some clothes, you are going to Malfoy manor for a week" said Severus glad he had some of that alcohol to calm him down.
"What? No please don't," said Sara wide eyed and shaking. Severus did not seem to notice either of them.
"Your going and that's final they are expecting you, now don't make me force you" said Severus. 'How dare she disobey him'?
"Yes sir," said Sara, she did not want her punishment to be worse. She was glad it was only a week, if she would last that long.
Far too soon for her liking she was standing in the fire, head bowed not meeting Severus' eye. He quickly shouted in "Malfoy Manor" Sara flinching when she heard it. Of all the places, he had to send her it was here. Gulping she got out of the fireplace looking right into two gleeful Malfoy's faces. She knew she was in for possibly the worse week of her life.
"Welcome Potter" said Draco smirking.
She gulped they knew who she was; it would not be long before Severus knew and everyone else. She had never told anyone, she knew it was Damon that had told them, it had to have been. She really hated that man, Draco grabbed her painfully…
