Love and Betrayal
Hermione walked backwards, away from him, but only ended up hitting the back of the bed, she had no escape…
Draco loomed over Hermione before he pinned her to the bed. Hermione tried to push him off but he held her down strongly and he overpowered her easily. She opened her mouth to scream but he covered her mouth with his hand. She glared before she bit his hand. He pulled it back before smacking her across the face.
He smirked at her before he lowered his mouth to her neck. Hermione tried to scoot away from him, repulsed at him but he held her firmly in place. His hands roamed over her body and Hermione moved more, trying to get away from him, from his hands.
His hands started creeping up her dress, bringing it with him and she kicked him, trying to gain some time, to get away from him. He glared at her before hitting her across the face. It momentarily stunned her and allowed him to pull her dress to her hips.
Hermione tried to kick him again but he grabbed her ankle and twisted it. Hermione felt white hot pain shoot through her leg and she cried out in pain before Draco kissed her neck again.
Hermione tried still to push him off of her, not giving up when the door opened. Draco glared at her but she yelled out and he cursed her before Voldemort stepped through the door.
He took in the scene and crossed the room to Draco and Hermione as Julianna settled back into her portrait.
"What is going on here?" he asked his rage clearly visible.
Draco stood and Voldemort could still Hermione clearly behind him, a large hand print was on her face, her dress was up to her hips and wrinkled. She had tears in her eyes and her hair was mussed.
"Well, Hermione here wanted me to…" Voldemort cut him off with as he walked forward and grabbing his robes and pulling him up.
"Really Draco, it isn't good to lie to me, I can see right through you, you were trying to rape my wife and that was obviously not what you were going to say," he hissed his voice low and hard.
Voldemort let go of Draco and he stumbled, falling to the floor. Voldemort looked at him cruelly. "Understand Draco that Hermione belongs to me and me alone, harming her will result in your death."
Voldemort watched him open his mouth and he cut him off, "You swore your allegiance to me and thus, you cannot harm Hermione, what I say goes. And you may be a deatheater but I will not hesitate to kill you. I have many other faithful deatheaters who would obey me and not question."
Draco gulped and the door opened again and Ebony and Ginny came into the room.
Ebony first fell upon Hermione, still in the same state as before and then she let her eyes rest on Voldemort and Draco. She could see Voldemort's rage in his stance and the clenching of his jaw. Draco cowered on the floor before his master. Ebony stepped forward and pointed her wand at Draco.
"How dare you!" she hissed at him in rage.
Draco raised his head to her in shock. "What are…" he began but Ebony cut him off with, "You raped her didn't you!"
Voldemort laid a hand on her shoulder, lowering her arm to her side. "He tried but no he did not, however I will not hesitate to kill him if he ever tries something like that again."
"Go, Draco!" Voldemort said to Draco.
Draco opened his mouth but he saw Voldemort looking at him expectantly and he flew out the door, not even noticing Ginny standing there or remembering that he had left his wand under the couch where Hermione had kicked it.
Ebony rushed over to Hermione and saw her ankle. She pulled out her wand and mended it easily. Hermione looked at her strangely as she put some weight on the foot. "I wanted to be a healer but alas I never was," Ebony answered Hermione's unasked question.
Hermione nodded as she gingerly walked across the room to the couch. She caught sight of Ginny. Ginny came towards her, tears already streaming down her face. "I'm so sorry Hermione!" she wailed.
Hermione looked confused as she asked, "What are you sorry for?"
Ebony came forward and put her arm around Ginny's shoulders. "Hermione, Ginny was being controlled by Malfoy as you well know but he added salt to the wound by using her to kill your parents."
Hermione gazed at them with a shocked expression as she tried to grasp this. "I'm so sorry Hermione, I'll understand if you hate me because I murdered your parents."
"No, no Ginny I don't hate you, Malfoy was controlling you and as such, he actually killed them, only using you."
Ginny smiled through her tears and ran forward to embrace Hermione. Hermione embraced Ginny back tightly, not letting her go, glad to have Ginny back as she was like a sister to her.
"I will check in later but I have other matters to attend to," Voldemort said as he walked towards the door.
He put his hand on the door when Hermione called out, "Wait!"
She bounded over to him and embraced him tightly as Ebony and Ginny exchanged looks. "Thank you, if you hadn't of come, I don't know what would have happened."
Voldemort nodded as a corner of his mouth turned up slightly then he was gone in a flurry of black robes…
"Harry?" Ron asked.
"Hmmm," Harry replied.
"What are you thinking?"
"I think I figured it out, what Trelawney said, Hermione could be she who is dark and something bad will happen to her, though it could be Ginny, don't know who would save either one and ravaged could mean a lot of things."
"But either way they are in danger!" Ron yelled out, and everyone stopped eating to look at him.
"Ginny or Hermione could be in danger, couldn't we do something?" he added.
Professor McGonagall looked at him sternly. "We do not know where Voldemort is and as such, we cannot possibly save anyone."
"But we know a location!" Ron protested.
"Yes, we do Mr. Weasley but his hideout could be anywhere, You-Know-Who was notorious for being powerful, I would know as I was Head Girl in the same year as he."
Harry and Ron's mouth fell open in shock before they recovered. Ron sighed. "I'm worried about them both, Hermione has always been like a sister, I even liked her for a long while but it would never work out and Ginny is my sister," Ron said.
Harry nodded. "I know, neither are my sister but I care for them as such."
"Let's get into our pajamas and have a sleepover!" Ginny said excitedly.
Ebony and Hermione laughed but all of them changed into pajamas in the closet. Ginny picked out a pair of silk pants and a shirt. Ebony opted for a very conservative and long nightgown. Hermione took the mid calf length nightgown of emerald silk.
They flopped onto the bed and Ginny sat up as she toyed with her hair. "Perhaps I should braid everyone's hair and then we can talk about men," she said eagerly.
Hermione sat up slowly from her position of hanging off the bed. "We don't have any men to talk about unless you want to discuss my husband." She stifled a giggle.
Ginny bit her lip. "Well, I'll braid everyone's hair and we'll talk about whatever as you are right, there are no men to speak about."
Ebony snorted before allowing Ginny to take her raven hair and braid it. "So, Hermione what's happened to you since you were kidnapped?" Ginny asked.
"Well, let me see, Ginny, I was kidnapped by Voldemort, he was playing with my mind or something, I had to go and meet a bunch of pureblood people that wanted to murder me at one point, I married Voldemort, I saw you and almost got raped, that about sums it up," Hermione said thoughtfully.
"You are really boring Hermione," Ginny said playfully as she finished Ebony's hair and started on her own.
Hermione's mouth dropped open. She grabbed a pillow. "I am not!" she retorted and threw the pillow.
Ginny giggled and dove behind Ebony before she finished her braid and then grabbed the pillow and threw it back at Hermione.
Hermione was hit by the pillow and fell back against the pillow in mock death before she grabbed the other pillow and threw it at Ebony. She leapt off the bed as the other two started grabbing pillows. Hermione took shelter behind the chair as they threw a pillow.
Hermione leapt up and took it before ducking again. She peeked over the edge of the chair and didn't see either Ginny or Ebony. Then she was attacked by two pillows. Hermione spun around to see Ginny and Ebony attacking her.
Hermione laughed before sprinting to the middle of the room. The other two started throwing pillows at her from behind their spot. Feathers came out of the pillows and pillows themselves were strewed around the room. Hermione threw the pillows back at them before she was attacked from behind by Ebony who was hitting her furiously. Hermione grabbed the nearest pillow and started whacking her too.
Ginny joined the fray and they continued to hit each other before the door opened. They all dropped the pillows as Voldemort stepped into the room. He looked around the room before looking at the three of them who were trying and failing to look innocent.
He smiled before he started laughing and the three of them looked confused. "Sorry, it's just that you are most likely the only three women in this entire headquarters who would initiate a pillow fight and look very disheveled," he said as he looked at them.
Hermione shrugged. "Well, we are special after all but I assume that you have come to see if Draco has made an appearance."
"No, he hasn't made an appearance, just the three of us and feather pillows though if he did come we could always whack him to death with a feather pillow," Ginny said before she burst into giggles.
"Well, then since you are well, I will leave you but I am going to lock the door," he said before he turned and walked out, pulling the door to and locking it.
Ebony looked around before pulling out her wand and cleaning the room up. Ginny yawned. "Perhaps we should go to bed," she said gesturing to the now, clean bed.
Hermione and Ebony laughed. "Sure."
The three of them bounded onto the bed and closed the curtains. They giggled as they got situated but Hermione sat up. "Wait, I have to do something."
She climbed out of bed and walked over to the vanity and picked up the box with the ruby bracelet. She gazed at the bracelet that looked back at her before she picked up and clasped it to her wrist.
Ginny poked her head out of the pillows and said, "Come on Hermione!"
Hermione smiled and climbed back into the bed and fell asleep, the bracelet on her wrist, showing maybe she might be beginning to trust Voldemort, even if it was a little…
