Severus searched their flat. The longer he searched, the angrier he grew.
It was true. She was nowhere to be found. Hermione had left.
Hermione had left him.
He felt his anger slide into a bitter resentment. After all they had been through, she had left.
Severus felt the resentment only instantly, all too soon he was ready to throttle his wife once he got a hold of her. He knew, of course, where she was. She would flee to the Burrow for whatever sanctuary that might still be there after their marriage.
Gathering his pride, he followed his wife.
