Chapter 4

Jonathan Granger was not a kind man nor was he a gentle one. He had been taught form a young age that mercy, kindness and empathy where a waste of time. He was more then happy to trample others into the ground to get his own way and to improve his standing. Coming from a rich family he knew he was superior to others. Everything he had done in life was to strengthen his position. Even his marriage was to ensure his legacy. Jane was the only child of another rich family and by marring her he had managed to merge their fortunes under his name. She had resited at first but he made her position very clear and corrected her harshly when she stepped out of line.

She didn't now, she knew better. She knew she had two main duties to look after the house and to give him an heir. She had and continued to preform the first task perfectly, but the second had been less successful. He had wanted a son, but she failed him there and left him with a Daughter. Jonathan didn't want a daughter he wanted a dynasty. But he saw that he could mould her the way he wanted to, into the perfect heir, then marry her off to the son of one of his equally wealthy friends. He expected much from her and made sure when ever she fell short she was corrected and disciplined accordingly. She had shown promise but then her affliction had been discovered.

When he found out he punished both Hermione and Jane accordingly. It must have been Jane's faulty genes that had caused the affliction, just like when her genes didn't give him a son. It couldn't have been his genes as he knew he was superior. But now Hermione had grown stronger and instead of fearing her , as he had taught her, she had embraced it. This put Jonathan in a difficult position but he had figured out a plan. All he had to do was wait a little longer then he could give his permission for Hermione to marry at 18 and then divorce Jane, take his money and flea. It was a brilliant plan and he made sure to let Jane know it was her fault. He had told her he would get rid of her, when she pleaded that he would eave her with nothing he silenced her. All he had to do was put up a facade of marital bliss until the time was right.

So here he was hosting dinner for four of his closest friends. Pretending everything was fine. He needed the distraction, he had no idea where Hermione was but once he found out then all hell would break lose. She would regret it, keeping her under heel was imperative and he would make sure she stayed there.

As dinner progressed the front door slammed open and Jonathan stormed over looking to beat whoever dared to disturb his home. But when he reached the door he froze. There in the doorway stood a creature of brown fur, yellow eyes and vicious teeth. It glared at him with barley contained malice before growling and charging forward, Jonathan was knocked off his feet as claws dug into his side and threw him back into the dinning room. The occupants of the room panicked and ran but a crash of the window signalled the arrival of another creature. One of talons, feathers and muscle, the creature swept Jonathan's friends aside slamming them into the furthest wall, they fell to the floor unmoving. Jonathan tried to crawl away but he was pinned to the floor by clawed feet. He looked to Jane who was cowering in the corner

"Do something" he spat but before she could answer he heard a familiar voice

"No I don't think she will" The voice hissed as Jonathan's world went black.

An unknown amount of time later Jonathan regained consciousness, he tried to move but found he couldn't. He looked for ropes but couldn't see anything. What he could see however was that as well as himself everyone in the house were tied up and put against the back wall. He also saw the two creature kneeling before a third. She, for it was clearly a woman had graded purple skin white hair, horns and a tail. He couldn't believe what was going n. However he knew it must be something to do with Hermione after all he heard her voice but didn't see her. He scanned the room for her again but still couldn't see her where was she. As he thought the purple being walked over to them she looked at each one and smiled cruelly "Yes I think these will do" she said after she had looked at them all.

"Hermione when you suggested attacking your home. I didn't expect to find such a bounty. I must find a way to reward you" the being said

"Thank you my mistress" Came Hermione's voice as Jonathan flowed the sound to the fur covered creature. His eyes widened in shock

"What have you done you little bitch" he spat, forgetting the situation he was in. The reply he got was swift and sharp as the feathered creature slapped him across the face "Don't you dare speak to her like that" it growled

"Ginny" Yelled the purple being "You forget your place" it snapped. Ginny retreated back and kneeled before the being

"Forgive me mistress" Ginny begged

The being placed its hand on Ginny's head "I will this one time. Your body is still revelling from your transformation and your emotions are high. But never again" it said sternly.

"Who are you?" Jane asked her voice weak and small

"Don't you recognise your own daughter" Hermione said walking over to her mother

"What happened to you?" Jane asked fear in her voice

"I awoke my mistress, and in return she allowed me to be reborn, to serve at her side. I have been given a far greater purpose then we could ever comprehend" Hermione said nothing but joy and devotion in her voice.

The being smiled "Well said Hermione. Now shall we start what we came here to do" it said as Hermnione and Ginny stood beside the being. The raised there hands and three of the guests levitated towards them. They spun round and ended up kneeling in front of the trio "Feed my knightguants" it commanded. Hermione and Ginny complied as the centre of their hands began to glow a purple colour. From the centre emerged a maw of razor sharp teeth as soon as the teen touched the shoulders f the guests. They began to convulse, they got thinner and thinner, the skin wrapping tighter around their skeletons. Soon the three guest where nothing more then shrivelled husks.

The feel of draining the souls from their victims made Hermione and Ginny cry out in pleasure as they felt their power recharge. The feeling was almost orgasmic and rush of pure pleasure coursed through their bodies spreading warmth all over. Once they had drained them the stood there and basked in the joy of their first feed

"How did it feel?" the being asked basking in her own food.

"Like nothing I have ever felt before mistress. It felt so good" Ginny replied and Hermione echoed those thoughts

"Good. Now enjoy desert" the being said as Jonathan felt himself lift up and be brought to Hermione's feet. Only Jane was left against the wall.

Hermione smiled cruelly as she got in her father's face "I'm going to enjoy this so much. I have dreamed of killing you, of making you suffer. Rest measured you will suffer" she said as she slowly lowered her hands to her fathers shoulders. Soon the process started for Jonathan, he felt intense pain as if something was being ripped out of every single one of his pores. His nerves where on fire and his mind was going blank. Soon Jonathan Granger the tyrant who had ruled Hermione's life was gone, nothing but an empty husk remained. For Hermione it felt even better then the first as she was extracting her revenge.

Jane had watched in horrors as all around her died. Tears had stained her face and stung her eyes. Now the three creatures where standing over her. The purple being moved to touch her and she flinched

"Fear not. Their fate is not the one that waits you. Your fate is far better. You will serve Hermione, keep up her facade of being normal until the time is right. You will tell others that your husband has gone away on business." it spoke

Jane nodded "I can do that. I won't tell anyone I swear." she said fear in her voice

"While your willingness is good. I require a more permanent and guaranteed arrangement" the being said as her finger touched Jane's head. The magic scorched through her brain and began to rewrote it removing her free will. Who she was and repurposing it for Hermione's own ends. Soon Jane Granger was gone replaced with a drone. That could carry out basic functions but that was all.

That night had gone well for Lyssa she had two new servants, who had completed their transformation by feeding on those they had captured. But now the real work began, now she had to plan her take over of the wizarding world. And the best place to start was Hogwarts, oh this was going to be fun.
