Chapter. Untamed Horses

Leah Clearwater Pov -

*Flashback*

"I have to make a phone call, it will be two minutes. Then we must be on our way." Harry Potter, says to Jacob rushing to the kitchen area.

We stood by the front door, As Henry took a seat with Hazel, i put myself in Jacob's strong warm arms.

He was tense, irritable and impatient at the exchange. "Hey," i say, bringing his focus to me. "Must we disappear, so i can settle the beast inside?" I joke, softly kissing his jawline.

He sighed, deeply.

"Yeah well, the beast inside only is calm as long as I'm near you." He kissed my lips. "I don't like this.. if something happens to you I'll-"

"No, no. Come on, what we say the other day... no negativity. We have to have faith in him. I need this ...us to be one, it'll save our butts." I say, as Jacob glance into the dinning area of Dean Thomas home. He lived here with his young daughter Delena and they were quietly sitting at his table talking.

"I just need for us to stay together. He doesn't see that." He says, about Harry.

"He has been through this before, he has survived it. Him and his helpful friends. We have to trust him." I say, kissing his warm lips softly.

"i I don't trust no one but you." He breathed against my skin.

I wanted to calm his worries so badly. i couldn't. We've only been apart for a few days and I'm going cuckoo with worry myself.

"I need to be able to at least call to talk to you. It's like, I'm having infant withdrawal or something."

I laugh. "You mean Separation anxiety."

"Exactly, I crave your touch more than I mind the burn."

I narrowed my eyes. "What burn?"

"The burn of needing to phase, i swear soon as we get where we're going- i'm shifting." He say.

"She's the sweetest. I ... I like... her." Henry say to Hazel, i assume about Clara, his new imprint. Jacob and i glanced over.

We had to do some switching around today. Now, Henry's here with me, Clara, her father, Dean Thomas and his daughter Delena...while Jacob and Hazel go with Harry's bother-in-law George.

Hagrid, along with Parvati Patil, will be waiting for Jacob and Hazel for what i believe to be two or four more days. Until Harry can catch a break on the case.

"I can tell she likes you too, Henry." Hazel says, "Now, when she ask to lay her head on your lap, to sleep, just nod and gently rub her hair."

"What? But -"

"Henry. Dude trust me. She's gonna need a best friend to cry and sleep on. Don't be weird and shy. Talk to her like you do Sarah and me. Except, tell her happy-feelings more. Be sappy." Hazel say, tussling his curly hair. Their friendship was cute.

I will try my best to do Seth proud, and protect his son Henry because he is my own now. "He looks like a young tanned-skin-Harry Styles, dontcha think?" I say turning back to Jacob.

"i have no idea who that is, but come here." Suddenly, Jacob scoops me up effortlessly in his arms, carrying me up the stairs.

"Jacob, we are guest in this house remember." I whispered, and he rushed us in a medium sized bathroom.. with light brown tiles and yellow walls.

Whoa, this is a ugly colored pee-room. i thought.

Jacob sat me on the sink counter and shut the bathroom door. "I could have walked." i say, With a chuckle, and fast rush, his lips were on mine.

His hands up my backside, thick with caressing force, I moaned.

I do anything for him to lay me down and stay, but of course he couldn't.

Soft, warm like cushion of a blanket, his arm hugged my body. While I melted into him. The fear of being without his magnetic force was all around.

There was a rough knock on the bathroom door. Where i pause for a second Jacob ignored it, continuing to kiss me.

The second knock was a little bit more gentle, but longer.

"Jacob, mate. Sorry, Harry's set to leave." Dean Thomas, say.. through the closed bathroom door.

Jacob, pulled back with a sigh. ""Gotcha." He responded, then we heard Dean's footsteps retreating downstairs.

I tilted my head, at his perplexing look. "What's wrong?"

Being here must have his mind sick with thoughts of his mother.

"Nothing." He says, and i cupped his face in my palms. Kissing him, quick and slow.

"We have three minutes-top. Is it about being separated? Because i can pull-a-you-and-Embry and raise a little hell." I say, jokingly yet serious.

One the day, we all left the Order Of The Phoenix home Embry asked Professor McGonagall to check on Sarah, and long story short... he shifted thinking he had to run to go search for her, and a long time ago Jacob himself shifted in-front of Charlie Swan -when intending to keep Renesmee Cullen in his grasps by exposing his secret to her grandfather.

"I've been trying to wrap my head around all of this. Can you honestly believe my mother's accident was anything but? I can't seem to process it."

"We don't know anything that truly happened. All they have is theories." I say, in hopes it helped his tiring eyes.

"Which only leaves me with more and more questions. How did my great-grandfather get here? Why did my mom decide to relocate? It's been killing me to wonder why i never thought to ask or dig deeper."

"Babe." I say, pulling his face close. "We don't have too worry about this now."

Jacob gently removed my hands from him. "Yes. We do. Regulus Black, they told us about him. Now I need to dig further."

All i knew was Regulus in Latin means 'Little King'. I sighed. i didn't want him to open these can of worms. "Jacob, there's already a ton of crap that we're taking on."

"Exactly. Tell me, if you were in my position you'll just forget about it?"

"Of course not."

"Good, then help me." He says.

I bit my lower lip, with a shrug. "How? We have no idea where to start." I say.

"Potter, say Blackwood City, was named after Regulus and his brother Sirius Black...we'll start there."

"Jacob, we're suppose to be in hiding. How are we going to do any research and not get found out?"

"Easy. Reading. I'm sure dude-friends have loads of articles and books on this guy and the entire Black House family. think, if we dig good enough we can find out who else behind this."

I nod. "Your right. I need all of this to be over, so we can go home and the kids can feel safe again." i stated.

I need for him and I to get resettled into our new norm, of me being a stay at home novelist and him a cafe shop owner and mechanic.

Here, unbeknownst to me until recently, my distant cousin Elizabeth Clearwater lived two villages away from Great Britain. She owns a castle that was past down by our wizardry-ancestors.

Harry's generosity is mighty so far. I'm surprise he hasn't have a castle of his own. He must, I assumed have no use for one. or interest for that matter. To my relief, he considered himself our savior, in the upmost humble-way possible and less arrogant. That's why i respect and trust him, that and he can't be such a jerk with the same name as my father.

"If i have to do this on my own, i get it." Jacob, say clearly staring at my facial expressions.

"What? No, excuse me for not being too trigger-happy about this. I'm just mulling it over in my head." I say.

"The sickos that killed Seth are from here." Jacob mentions. "Seth…. Haylie.. and even the Noah guy. Pretty much our entire home, you were right, it will never be the same without them. I want to know why."

"Ok, fine."

He narrowed his eyes at me. "Wasn't it you who wanted revenge?"

"Of course, I just feel that it's entirely too much to take on right now. I was angry and not that i'm not now, i'm just thinking more clearly now."

"What are you saying?" He snap.

"I'm saying... slow down. I'm still processing being across the pound." Jacob sighed, irritably rubbing the back of his neck. "See, already ..your stressing. The last thing we need, is to be stressing so much that the killers responsible fly right over our heads because we weren't paying attention to the people around us."

"No, i understand. i get it. your right." he nods.

"And for your information, I will always want who come for us and our pups dead. Not just for Seth, or Haylie, or Noah, but for the innocent ones here as well. For Harry Potter's friends." I stated. "Best believe if your sailing any boat towards retaliation, I'm sure as hell is right beside you through the damn storm." i clarified. "We just have to set a positivist-line that the kids can learn from. They're all still full of anxiety and lots of anger." I say.

"Right, yeah none of us have time for negative anything. Yet, if they can teach them self-defense then i'm for it. With or without happy-thoughts." He mutters opening the bathroom door.

I follow him back downstairs and i mentally prepare myself to separate from him, for God knows how long.

Hermoine Granger Pov -

Urgent knock on the front door, I wondered if Rosie left her key, it would be unlike her, that and she made it clear her and Hugo were staying with Ginny.

I reach for the front door, swinging it open.

"Viktor?" I blurt. Surprised. Closing my robe as if the night air blew. The humidity was above five percent, yet it chilled me to have him here, at my home unexpectedly.

"Good Evening." He gives a shy smile, wearing a tan short sleeved, dark trousers and brown boots. "I'm sorry, to intrude."

"What are you doing here? There's a curfew." In which i sent out strict guidelines of, I cannot have him of all people dishonoring the rules.

"I was informed, I know you have your hands full at the moment..." He pause, looking away with sorrowful eyes. "Turns out my family is in need of me, back in Bulgarian. I was hoping to take you on our date, in case i return later than expected."

"Oh my, -What has happen? Are you certain you have to leave for Bulgarian now?" I say, with what feels like no hint of remorse. "I'm so sorry, that was an insensitive thing to say." i say, putting a comforting hand on his forearm, then recrossing my arms tight around myself. His soft skin reminded me how much i missed a mans touch.

just one breath, I was locked in on his body, and face. He has gotten more handsome over the years.

"No, No. It's fine." He slightly chuckle. Finally, I met Viktor's brown eyes once more, "It's my mother, she has been quite ill and she refuses to be treated by any doctor besides myself. Honestly, i feel she must overreact in hopes to get me back home." He says, then scratches the back of his neck. "Apologies, that was not a polite thought. Um, I assure she isn't faking - i'm sure she's just watching on the telly of what's happening and is going mad with worry. Worry is i a true sickness." He say, and i laughed. it' was adorable how normal his reaction is, and my heart slammed against the wall of my chest, demanding to be released from it's cage to embrace him.

i elegantly slipped from the threshold of my door and hugged his muscle-thin-tone body. Viktor's hands around my body ever so gentle, caused me to squeezed him comfortably. "Don't be ridiculous, in our defense... a Mother will go to any lengths to protect their child or children." i say, and he stood quiet at the length that i did. He smelt amazing. i feel a bit sad to see him go, and not be sure of how long he'll be away for.

"You know, Hermione. Years ago.. i met a girl... in my home land of Bulgaria. Shortly after you and your -Ron, married. To others it seem as if i found love, the fact that her and I stayed together for a while; her and I never married or had any children because she counted on me making things right with you." He say, and i slowly inched back to see his face. "I meant what I said a week ago. To want a chance with making you happy."

He say's and at this moment it was clear. Viktor Krum was in fact that only guy to ever truly be in love with me completely, and desire me from his soul. "I promise you, no matter the length of time. I'm here. I will remain here, for you." I say, wanting to kiss him, yet i didn't want to rush it.

"Would you do me the honor of ... accepting my date invitation tonight?" He asked, politely.

"Date.. tonight?" I asked.

"Yes." He nodded with a slight smile.

"Um... i'm not sure.." I say, "I'm dressed for bed."

He smirked. "I assure you, fancy gowns would be a waste." He chuckled, and I narrowed my eyes. "Come," He gently tugs my waste.

"Viktor, no. I can't. I.. I'm not dressed. I have no shoes on." I say, reaching back to close my front door.

"No worries. You won't need footwear." He say, suddenly scoping my body up in his arms, carrying me bridal-style to what i assumed would be his jeep.

I laughed to myself wondering why, he does spontaneous things at such a time like these.

when steps from my porch, and strides across my tiny yard, i groan.

When we aren't met by his jeep, but instead a dark horse hitched and waiting in the grassy glen outside my home. "Wow, What is she a Friesian? and, Was she here the entire time?" i ask.

Viktor chucked. "Not as nearly beautiful, is Kuma, my East Bulgarian pretty." We stood right in front of her. "Long ago. I was celebrating a match with my mates. At a party that moved indoors and lasted well into the evening! all around, friends laugh and mingle and chatted over drinks. It would have been the perfect time to sneak away if i had a date..." He say with a small shrugged and i smirked, imagining that night ... picturing him... possibly us... together, celebrating with his friends. A moment.. Viktor leads me outside, then suddenly we are surprised to find Kuma... "I was brought to the window, then I looked to a tree on the estate and there she was. I named her Kuma because my lady friend... before we parted ways, was born in Japan and she wanted to return."

"The lady friend you dated in Bulgaria?" I asked.

"Yes." He then looked to his horse. "I, always have Kuma brushed, saddled, and ready for any occasion. Now, I think she's been excited to meet you." Viktor say, looking me in my eyes. "Are you ready?"

With a nervous smile, I nod. "It has been years since i rode a horse." I say, and he lightly pushes me up effortlessly onto position, and I wrap my entire body around Kuma.

"Don't worry, She's gentle." Viktor smiles, then quickly lifts himself in front of me. Kuma made no movement as I scooted to Viktor's back, just as he wrapped my arms around him securely.

"You alright?" He ask and all i could think of is someone seeing us, riding along the streets on this horse.

"Yes, fine."

"Good." He say, rubbing my knuckles with his soft palms, then spurs the horse to motion. "Hyah!" He say, in a non-shouting-tone.

I hold tight to Viktor as we ride through the night.

In time i shut my eyes imagining that this was all to my life. Yet, i knew very well that as soon as the sun came, he would be gone.

Viktor was what I always believe he was, however now that we have grown, he's quite much more. I'm sure he's no perfect man, there's no such thing.. but i'm realizing he very well could be the match for me.

Suddenly, watching rolling grassy landscapes pass as Kuma drums beneath us. i felt this sense of freedom he has a way about himself.

"It feels like you secretly are an inspiring cowboy." I laugh amused in his ear.

"Not far off, honesty" He laughs back.

"You are missing a hat."

"With my wand, i could make that happen." He say.

I laugh again. I knew i will adore every piece of his imagination when it runs.

Finally, Viktor slows the horse to a trot on a wide, grassy hillside ascending to a cliff.

"I think we'll head for the top of the hill." Viktor says

He jumps down first, then takes the horse's hefty saddlebags onto his shoulder as he leads us a short distance of the hill... i still wore my night outfit, robe and no slippers.

"It's not far now.." he's say.

A beautiful cliff-side view awaits us as we crest the top of the incline.

it was a scene out of a film reel. "Oh my, this place is gorgeous." i say, still on the horse as Viktor pulls to a stop.

Viktor smiles as he opens the saddlebags, unfurls a roll of blankets onto the ground, and strikes up a small campfire in no time, with his wand.

"A beautiful view, A sky full of stars, and a cozy little campfire. My, my this is a date." i breathed.

He grins, and just then not caring of dirt beneath my feet or in my toes.. - i swung off of Kuma's back and jumped down to the grass.

Impressed, Viktor laughed. "I was waiting for you to brave it." He smiled, amused.

"What? i'm not a total prude." i smirked, kneeling beside him, who lowered himself on the blanket at the same time as i did.

"i wouldn't think such a thought." he stated.

... he put his arms around my waist, holding me to his chest as we both listen to the fire crackle.

This was so new, what if i dive into this with him? What if he wakes one morning, with faded love, yearning to go to a bar and meet somebody new once he grow tired of me?

All these years of him waiting for me... i just may let him down.

Watching the pale moonlight, illuminate the sprawling, serene wilderness before us.

"I've never done this before." I say, looking up at the stars. "Especially when there's a war going on." I exhaled. "It's exhausting to think about." I say, of the innocence that have lost their lives and children becoming orphans. When will the evil give up? Why must we constantly have to protect one and other every single day? Will there ever be peace on earth?

"Let your mind rest, Hermione." Viktor says, "Don't think of any of it this moment." He say, obviously sensing my internal monologue.

I nod. " I don't know if I ever felt so overstretched, yet peaceful all at once. I don't want this evening to end."

"Stop thinking of today, or there forward... just be here. Be present, in this moment." He whispered in my ear.

"It's...it's just hard." I say, low leaning out of his arms, i turn to face him. "I-"

"Each morning you wake it won't be easy... yet, be motivated. Never think of a time as your last, even if it was to be." He say.

"I honestly try."

"Well...for me, you may say i have a point to prove." He say.

"Trying to prove that i should-

"Be with me? Yes." He say. "Not just this moment, i know it's soon. However i see you are ready. You're here with me." He say, lightly touching my face.

I laugh. I was ready, yet i do not want to rush. I rather this last overtime. "Viktor.-"

"Priceless, a women should be with a man who doesn't love her more than she loves him .. I see it in your eyes, that you respect the way i love you. How I've always been in love with you." Viktor says.

"Say, i do. What will this night be?... we ride, we camp, sleep this night together?-"

"Yes, yes.. to it all." He cups my face in his hands. "Just say yes, I'd give it all to you ...always if you'll wait for me." He says.

"Viktor, this couldn't have been a more perfect night. I don't want to say goodbye to you... but.. i have two children to put first." I muttered.

He breathed, closing his eyes, allowing his hands to fall. defeated. A sight that was a beautiful as it was tragic. He didn't want to go either.

I looked down at the blanket. The unusual blue knitted material.

I imagine running my fingers across the muscles of his chest, slipping my hands around the nape of his neck as he leans in..."I can only promise to wait."

Viktor smiled a rare genuine grin, holding my hand tight. I couldn't tell where one of us stopped and the other began of wanting this so bad. This was new, differing and raw.

I glanced at Kuma who started wondering around the grass.
"Don't worry, our four-legged chaperone is fed in blanketed ...Clear skies like this? She'll be just fine all night." He says and i looked up.

The skyline was completely cleared. Soon, his plane will be in the air... flying back to his home land. I thought, then realized his invasive on 'all night'.

"All night?" I questioned.

"Unless, you rather not rest under the stars." He say, and i glanced at his food basket, knowing he only bought it along to be polite. In actuality, could he want to be intimate...?

I turn to look at him...my lips inches away from his.

"I do. This was ... sweet, and I want to be with you till morning.. I want to do more than rest." I say.

He smiled, putting a hand to my cheek. "I'm happy, and honestly hoped you would say that."

Viktor lowers me onto the roll of blankets, letting me relax and enjoy the sight of his eyes deep into mine.
My heart, like a bird flew above and i never wanted to see it caged again.

Viktor lips moved with mine, and i tried my best to breathe correctly. I was nervous, but i was here once before.

Months ago with Harry... two people together that's never been one, yet there was so much anticipation.

Viktor, blissful touch, through my sleepwear gave me chills. He was indeed of the type of weight that I pressed on me.

His body between my thighs was everything more sensual than the tender, wetness that was forming beneath my nightwear.

He eagerly loosens my robe and slides down my nightgown, with two tugs.

The night air was still thick, the only chill i could feel was from his tongue on my neckline, now as he worked his way down my collarbone.

I moaned, at the sensation of the sensitive area.

He kisses me. up my chin, then he kisses across my shoulders...tracing a slow but fiery trail of heat down to my chest.

my back arches.

"Viktor." I whispered, before we got carried away.

He paused. "Yes?"

I look to him, "Do you have-"

"Protection?" He says, instantly reaching over to his saddlebag and removing a small package. "Don't worry, it's always good to be safe than sorry." He says, and i nodded. Slightly, hoping one day to actually not have to use it with him.

"It's just ... we ...I-" I stuttered.

"I'll always have your best interest at heart my love." He says, low.

I am not even known for ever being speechless, yet now, somehow my words roll off my tongue right into his mind.

Viktor leans down to kiss my lips again, desperate and passionate.

His strong hands strike the curves of my body as his tongue brushes against my sensitive skin, drawing a soft, eager gasp from my lips.

"Mmm.. i want you, Hermione... all of you." He took off his clothes and I wondered what it would be like to be spontaneous towards him for the first once.

Viktor leans back onto the blanket, and i instantly give chase, straddling him. "I..ah..,alright you-"

I capture his lips in a kiss and pin his shoulders down, hard. Putting a hush to his adorable stutter.

I feel ever single muscle tense but then submit, willing...me to sink onto him. I could feel his penis on my inner thigh and the thickness and length was way more than I've ever laid with before.

For the first time, i did not care to wear protection. I need to feel every once of him that was possible.

I gasp as his thick, long, shaft entered my core.
Viktor chuckled leaning up into me, and i placed my palms on the nape of his neck. "Are you alright?" He asked.

"Of course, yes." I trembled, against him.

"You rather I -"

"Shhh- Shhh." I say, cutting him off once more with a kiss. He was yet again amused by my embarrassment. I'm assuming, I made a not so flattering facial expression when his penis entered my core.

I can prove he's not too big for me. My hips, rolling at the pace i need. My wetness helped, the friction. "Mmm. That's good." I moaned shutting my eyes. With our bodies joined together, we move in a perfect, sensual cadence... He finally groaned, caressing my backside and i know he can feel the euphoria build. The blood race through my veins, I felt the feeling most people wait their entire lives for. I felt alive. When I open my eyes, Viktor met mine with a hunger that had nothing to do with food.

I lean into him, pressing a kiss to his lips, suddenly thankful he'd chosen to not give up on taking his chance with me.

I remember it would be days I would crave something... was it his touch? his voice? his presents? and never would I thought in a million years I would be yearning for it all like this in a short amount of time.

All with the sight of losing him.

"Your so beautiful." He trailed kisses from my breast. I tried my best to not moan so loud at the pleasure of moving up and down on him, and the tickling sensation of his tongue at my nipples.

His passion glazed eyes never left mine.
I throw inhibition away and let the moans and gasps escape me, louder and louder. "Oh...Oh, yes!"

"That's it my love... don't hold back." He encourages.

"Oh my- Viktor!" I let my cries of pleasure ring out, carried away on the wind over the trees.

My rhythm builds, heavy and deep, the surges of pleasure becoming all too much. Driving us both closer and closer to the edge.

Finally, the sensation surges up within me... cresting in a wave of world-melting bliss!

I was panting from the intensity of my orgasm and trying to focus on him, "I ...i ... don't want you to go." I mouthed breathless.

"Don't worry, my love. After my return, I'll never leave you again." He says, breathing heavily, kissing my lips.

We rest. With our backs against his blanket.

It was a rush, intimacy with him.

I lay curled up with Viktor, blissfully listening to the sound of crackling campfire...as embers glow a warm amber to the night blue sky, that we looked to once more. "This date has been perfect. Honestly, i don't know how it could get any better." I say.

"Well, wait until i gather up the butter beers before you make that statement." He say, reaching for his basket.

"No way... you brought some?" i say, looking over.

Soon, Viktor has a two bottles of beers and reaches to warm two sandwiches over the campfire. He hands me a bottle, and plate with a sandwich that i did not wait to eat. "Once you return, i'll prepare my homemade spaghetti and meatballs." i ate.

Once the food was gone, i drank the butter beer and Viktor gave a shocked look, then laughed so hard, which made me laugh. "Sorry, i hadn't noticed i was starving." I say.

instantly his naked body, warms mine and we laid back down together.

"Thank you." I say. "Amazing you are, to thought of everything. This truly was the best date I've ever had the opportunity of accompanying." I say, as he kissed my face.

"I'd do anything for you, Hermione. I can't wait to return to you."

He delights me with his sweet aroma, i never knew i yearned for. i will write to him soon as he leaves.

Soon as the silence .. came.. i patiently waited for the sun to rise over the river.
