Recap.
"As amusing as this is I believe our master had something to say." Cut in Rodolphus.
"Yes I did." Said Voldemort. "Severus I'm sure yesterday was most amusing for you but we must remember why you are with Granger or shall I say Lady Snape, and that is that I wish for her to be impregnated, I want this to happen as soon as possible and so I have decided that it is to happen by the end of this month."
"As you wish, my lord." Replied Severus gravely before apparating back to Hermione to inform her and Dumbledore.
Chapter 17.
Severus had apparate back to his room waiting for Hermione to wake. "Dumbledore can wait, Hermione has more of a right to know first." Murmured Severus unaware Hermione had just woken.
"To know what?" Said Hermione happily remembering the events of last night.
"I was summoned." Said Severus. "Voldemort knew we had consummated the marriage and wanted to tell me that he was pleased however he wants you to be pregnant by the end of this month." Hermione froze she knew it would have to happen sooner of later just not this soon, she had hoped she could have left Hogwarts first, pregnant at 17 was not exactly first on her list of plans for the future but having a baby with the man she loved was not exactly the end of the world.
"I understand Severus, it must be done, I love you think in Nine months time we'll have a baby." Said Hermione smiling at the thought of the baby.
"Nine months? That is muggle pregnancy Hermione. You are a witch it takes less than that." Said Severus staring at his wife in disbelief.
"What? How can that be? How can a child mature in less than 9 months?" Asked Hermione.
"Hermione muggles have premature births all the time those babies usually will turn out to have magical abilities. Magical children use their parents untapped powers or dormant magical genes to speed along the process." Explained Severus. "Of course those children may not always live and even though they are born prematurely it is still not the same time period as a witch's pregnancy."
Hermione stared at Severus in disbelief and yet was slapping herself mentally for never thinking of it, it was common knowledge in the Granger household that Hermione was born prematurely it had puzzled the doctors that she could have survived being born at 3 months let alone being fully developed so early. "Severus I was born prematurely, my mother had me six months early which is not at all normal for a child to survive."
"So you're a living example. Hermione three months is the exact time period for a witch's pregnancy." Said Severus. "I hope this hasn't come as a shock for you but Hermione it is only natural for a witch of your power to have been practising magic since conception."
"It hasn't come as a shock but I'm just thinking about being a mother in three months, I have always wanted a family I just never thought it would be so soon." Said Hermione with a half smile.
"I'm sorry." Said Severus to an alarmed Hermione.
"Why are you sorry? I'm happy, ecstatic, jubilant… you name it!" Said Hermione truthfully, Severus smiled at this.
"Well I guess Albus has to be informed." Said Severus. "Would you like to come before our exploration of the grounds?"
"No I'd rather not be discussing my sexual relations with a man I see as a father figure in my life." Said Hermione blushing slightly.
"As you wish, Lady Snape." Said Severus with a smirk.
"Thank you, Lord Snape." Laughed Hermione at the sudden sarcastic formality.
"Of course she has been told Albus." Said Severus "I realise this was dangerous however I felt Hermione needed to be told before you and any other order member that would have to be informed."
"I understand my boy! I agree no one has more of a right to know! I was just wondering how she would take it, she is rather unpredictable." Said Dumbledore quite clearly amused at Severus's quick jump to the defensive.
"Is there anything further you would like to discuss Albus?" Asked Severus regretting his outburst.
"I think we have to start thinking about how your child is going to effect the outcome of the war!" Said Dumbledore, all amusement was forgotten and a new adopted seriousness could be seen on his ancient face.
"I have been thinking about that since I first heard the prophecy Albus and I'm at loss to think how this child can help Potter." Admitted Severus.
"We all want this war to end soon Severus but I'm wondering whether the child will have to grow up and than help or if it's the child's powers we need only." Pondered Dumbledore.
"Potter is going to need all the help he can get, I have to go now Albus, Hermione wants to explore the grounds." said Severus getting up.
"Hey can we rest a little here, I am still a little exhausted after last nights activities." Said Hermione in a mock pout.
"Of course! And what a place to stop, you sure know how to pick Hermione." Said Severus. This was not a lie the surroundings were beautiful and the rose bushes and blossom trees were an asset that made sure nobody could choose to look onto the couples activities. This mini Eden was at the end of the Snape land and was open only to those a Snape wished and marriage meant this included Hermione.
"I think this is an excellent place for a picnic." Said Hermione dreamily conjuring a wicker basket full of food.
"Hermione?" Said Severus an hour later. "Would you like to continue through the grounds?"
Hermione however had a look of mischief about and with one sudden movement she was placed neatly in Severus's lap.
"I don't know, I mean we could do… other things… don't you think?" Said Hermione. Okay where did that come from ? That is certainly not like me! Severus raised an eyebrow at this.
"What did you have in mind exactly… Lady Snape?" Asked Severus casually.
"Oh I don't know I just seem to recall a unfinished event… now what was it?" Said Hermione pretending to search for a memory. Hermione than smiled as if suddenly remembering and simply pushed Snape onto the dewy grass making him lean on the floor with his hands.
"Is this what your playing at?" Said Severus. "Well I beat you once and I shall beat you again."
"Sshhhhhhhhhh." Whispered Hermione seductively laughing slightly when Severus realised unlike before, she denied his entry this time she wouldn't. Hermione moved her slender fingers across his body and removed his light cotton shirt and than began to unzip his trousers with the help of Severus's strong muscular hand. Severus was once again moaning and groaning knowing this time it would be pleasurable. His hands of course were uncontrollable and piece by piece Hermione's clothes were also joining his in a small forgotten pile by the empty wicker basket. Than as if out of nowhere Hermione hungrily nibbled Severus's neck as she gripped his penis in an authoritative manner and guided it to her nether regions.
God she's good!
Severus was once again tracing his finger along her nipple whilst still pressing his erection harder and harder each time, kissing her neck, nibbling slightly at her pale unmarked skin. After reaching the ultimate climax they both began to slow down before once again resting upon one another.
"If Voldemort has any doubts about last nights performance he should be reassured by today, Severus I'm sure this will lead to a pregnancy, I can almost feel it." Said Hermione before engaging Severus in a new more forceful kind of kiss.
A/N: Hmmm Hermione is kind of ooc isn't she? Well that is of course because she has now experienced what it is like to fully be a woman. Reviews please.
