wolf words

Thanks to everyone for reading, NSFW chapter, … on with the show!

Panting deeply, a thin sheen of sweat was on the young wolf's brow. In the corner of her eyes she saw her mate light up a cigarette and take a series of deep satisfied puffs. Hermione raised an eyebrow, and out of pure intellectual curiosity took the lit object mid inhale from the pink haired witch. To Tonks's utter shock and amusement Hermione took a long drag herself.

'Oi, didn't think you fancied a fag.'

'Not usually luv, but…'

Silence

'…ahhh'.

*Cough, cough*.

'This thing tastes bloody'

*Cough, cough*

' awful!'

*Cough, cough*

Hermione coughed furiously, immediately moving into a sitting position on the lumpy mess of a bed they shared. Tonks sat up patting the younger woman on her bare back softly.

'That's it wolfy, breathe.' Tonks soothed laughing

'Oh bloody hell, why do the muggle cinemas make it seem like it's the quintessential thing to do after sex?

…and, why do I feel so dizzy?'

*cough, cough*

'Ah that would be the nicotine on both accounts. By all research the post coital cigarette is beneficial only to the avid smoker. This is due to the fact that especially if the sex lasts a good bit of time and is quite vigorous, like ours usually is mind you,'. Tonks said winking at the last bit before continuing.

'So after the extended period of time without the drug the body then goes through nicotine withdrawals, so, when the smoker has said cigarette they get immediately relaxed due to getting their fix of the nicotine... Now a non-smoker doesn't get those benefits, hence the dizziness.'

'…'

'What?! Despite my jovial, clumsy manner I do have some intelligence, I'll have you know.'

Hermione threw her arms around the metamorphmagus, swinging a leg and wrapping around her still naked mate, bringing them skin to skin.

'Hmmm I never said you weren't.' Hermione said merely a breaths away from Tonks's mouth. The wolf slowly bucked her hips, feeling her mate below tremble slightly.

'You have no idea how your intelligence turns me on baby.'

The metamorphmagus smirked at that. 'Oh don't I?' She teased, grasping the brunette's nipples, tugging slightly at the tips, feeling them pebble in her hands. She leaned forward and began kissing the young wolf in her lap, flexing her abdominal muscles against the wolf's wet center pressed against it.

'Ahhhummmhhh'. Hermione moaned out.

'How's about you do something about it Tonksy grrrrr'. Hermione growled, eyes flashing yellow as she broke the kiss.

Hermione had finished her exams and was told the results would be owled to her in one week's time. That night she packed her things and stripped down to her underwear, crawling into the Gryffindor female wolf den cuddle. Sleep came easy to her that evening. Since Hermione had slept only a few hours the night prior…and then had slept with her mate for hours on end followed by her exams. Needless to say, she was exhausted. Her dorm mates unconsciously cuddled closer to the wolf, allowing everyone to have the best sleep they had gotten all year.

The next morning had everyone up bright and early for their breakfast. This was due to directly after the morning meal they would board the Hogwarts Express, ready to begin their summer holiday. Excited chatter filled the Great Hall as Hermione sat down next to her boys.

'Morning 'mione'. Harry said

'Mummmerrnngg'. Ron mumbled between his mouth filled with breakfast.

Hermione rolled her eyes at the red head. 'Good morning boys.' She began filling her plate with her healthy helpings.

'So have you decided if you are coming to the Burrow this summer or what?' Harry asked

Hermione smiled at her friends.

'Yes, I should see you lot sometime in the last month before school resumes. I promised mum and dad that I would spend most of it with them.' She breathed a soft breath then looked at her best mate. 'How about you Harry?'

'Oh, good news I got my Aunt and Uncle to let me stay there for the entire summer!' Harry said

Hermione blinked at that, something seemed off…

'Brilliant I say! I can't wait to play Quidditch every day!' Ron chimed in.

'Nice to know where your priorities lay mate.' Harry said sullenly.

'Wha..I mean…'. Ron struggled, but after Harry's façade broke he quickly caught on the teasing mood of his friends and the trio began laughing.

'Honestly Ron, are food and Quidditch the only things you think about?' Hermione laughed, but slyly looked at her friend Harry. With her enhanced senses she picked up on the telltale signs of a lie being told: sweating, fidgeting, Harry's fake smile that didn't quite reach eyes, pupils narrowed…

Hermione knew that his Aunt and Uncle's home was abysmal, but suspected it might be worse than she had first thought. Keeping these thoughts to herself she decided to file this information away and speak to her beta before she left for the summer. If Dumbledore knew of this, which he surely should, and allowed it to continue, she would get to the bottom of it. The elder wizard had his reasons behind everything he did, an ulterior motive if you will. Whether that motive was done for the best of intentions for her friend or the war effort remained to be seen… Her best mate deserved better than that.

She knew if professor McGonagall had even a hint of possible abuse in the home of a single one of her cubs her beta would swoop in and rescue them. Yes, she would be discussing this with Tabby as quick as she could before leaving.

Sitting on the train looking out into the ever changing country side, Hermione had one knee bouncing nervously and the other held by her flexing hand. The boys had just left to hunt down the sweets trolley, and was left to her own thoughts.

'There you are Luperca.' A small soft body had latched itself to her side.

'Wha..Ahem, oh hi little moon!' Hermione said coming back to the present, looking down at her friend.

'So I heard back from my godmothers. I hadn't told you a definitive yes or no since they had been traveling…but last night they owled me and told me that they will be visiting mid summer and wanted to meet you and your mate.'

'Oh Merlin! That would be amazing! I can't wait to meet them!' Hermione gushed at the possibility of learning more about her wolf and speak with others of her kind.

Luna tilted her head to the side, taking notice of the wolf's demeanor.

'Luperca, what's wrong?'

'That transparent eh?'

'Why yes the wackspurts are quite agitated around yourself today.'

Hermione smiled at her dreamy friend. 'Well I guess you could say I have a lot on my mind.'

'Alright then Hermione Granger tell me what is going on in that furry head of yours.'

'Well…'. Hermione paused and flicked her wand, closing the door and putting a silencing and locking charm on the compartment as well as a strong repelling charm.

'Ok…but promise me little moon that you won't speak of this to anyone.'

Luna merely smiled, settling into the seat in front of Hermione, and nodded solemnly.

'…it's really several things right now. Harry has lied about getting the ok to stay at the Burrow this summer, leading me to believe he has been abused on a regular. I spoke with Min about this, and she had seemed weary about leaving the boy as a babe, but abided by Dumbledore's wishes. She suspected that the necessity of Harry staying with his blood relative has more to do with ancient blood magic protecting Harry than anything else.'

'That does make sense.'

'I worry that the elder wizard cares more for the war effort than Harry. Something seems off about the whole thing. Why would he endanger Harry like that?'

Luna, now more serious than Hermione had ever seen her, paused before slowly responding. 'You know muggles raise cows, right?'

'Huh?' Hermione asked quizzically.

'They love them, sometimes brand them causing them pain, feed them, house them, wash them, but the end is still the same'. Luna

-oh dear God- Hermione thought

How dare he!

'you don't think?!'

'It makes sense, I guess Harry really hasn't had a fair shake…' Luna spoke

'Blimey'

'Well good thing you're the big bad wolf now, and can protect us poor humans.' Luna spoke now with mirth

Hermione smiled.

'But that's not the only thing on your busy mind, is it?'

'Bugger, I had almost forgot…umm my parents are meeting me at the station and then hopefully my mate will be meeting us at our house for dinner. We are coming clean, with everything and I mean everything, as well as trying to convince them to stay with Andy for the duration of the war.'

'Do you think that's wise? She is quite mischievous your mother in law.' Luna chucked

'Hence the nervousness.' Hermione replied

'How do you think your parents will react to everything?'

'Dunno…but they have always loved me unconditionally…and the only other option, one that my wolf won't let be an option, is to obliviate them…and there is no cure for that, so…'

'Luperca, you truly are the most selfless person I know. Harry is not the only one with the world on their shoulders.'

'Me? No I'm just trying to get by, and keep my loved ones alive if I can, others have it worse...' Hermione said lowly.

Luna put her hand under the brunette's chin lifting Hermione's eyes to her own.

'Come her wolfy, you are worth more than you think.'

Hermione smiled at her friend and welcomed the embrace of the dreamy eyed blonde. Hermione was slowly calming down and became happy at the warmth she felt with her friend. She began nuzzling and unconsciously purring deeply into her friend's neck, lost in the reassuring friendly touch.

It was at this point that the silencing and repelling charms wore off. The boys had chosen this tender moment to return to the compartment.

Harry noticed the closeness of the witches and poked Ron in the ribs with his elbow while winking at him. As if to say -play along

'Look sharp Ron, looks like this compartment is taken.'

Ron smiled and went with it. 'Oi I thought Tonks had as I heard, quote -the softest breasts you had ever felt in your mouth -end quote, what's this? Huh, the bookworm not satisfied, maybe the metamorphmagus is just not that good in the sack?'

Hermione growled so low that the boys didn't hear the grave warning at the biting remark of her mate. Eyes flashing yellow into her friends' neck, fingernails elongating…

'Shhh Luperca, remember who you are. This heart that beats, this is who you really are. Don't listen to these boys, they are having a laugh. I promise you, your witch doesn't think any less of you for hugging me, and her honor is in tact. Be still my friend, be still.' Luna said low out of the boys hearing.

Shaking heavily, and slowly coming back to herself at Luna's calming words. Hermione eventually extricated herself from her friend. She closed her eyes, willing the yellow color to recede. When she was centered enough, she turned to face the laughing duo, completely unaware of the very real danger they had been in mere moments ago. Opening her, once again chocolate colored eyes, she let everything go and picked up on their mirth. These were her boys, her best mates. Deciding to give back just as good as she got, she responded.

'Oh she's plenty good in the sack, or did you not hear us at the Three Broomsticks the last Hogsmeade weekend?'

Blinking at the quick rebuttal, the boys fired question after question:

'No way!

that epic shag fest was you two?

Rosmerta had to replace the wall and bed frame after you two…

…you broke part of the foundation!'

'Mmmhmmm, you know a silencing spell only goes so far, and that structure needed to be strengthened anyway...losing control…accidental magic and all that you know...' Hermione spoke dismissively on the last part, glancing down at her nails distractedly.

'Blimey 'Mione!' Ron blurted out

Tonks had owled earlier in the day that she had been called in on a big case at the ministry and could would not be done in time to pick up her mate at the train station. Reluctantly Hermione owled her parents asking them to pick up their only child, canceling a few appointments for the day. Not bothered in the least her parents stood at the station, all smiles waiting to see their little girl.

-'Did she get taller?'. Both dentist thought to themselves.

Hermione smiled at their enthusiasm and gave them the biggest bear hug she could muster.

'Mum, dad! So good to see you!'

The Grangers looked on in surprise at their only daughter's uncharacteristic display of affection.

'Not that we're not glad to see you too Hermione, but what brought this on?' Her mom asked.

All smiles Hermione answered honestly, 'I just missed you both loads.'

Their smiles extended as Hermione lead them back to their car.

During the drive home Hermione broached the subject of her mate visiting.

'So…errrmm mum dad, I kind of invited someone over for dinner tonight, if that's ok?'

The pair looked at each other briefly, this being the first time Hermione had ever asked to bring anyone to their home.

Her father raised an eyebrow at his wife in the passenger seat but shrugged his shoulders.

Mrs. Granger knew her daughter well and trusted her judgement. So the reply was easy.

'Of course dear, dinner will be served sharply at 7, if you could have your friend over by then.'

'Brilliant mum'. Hermione discreetly sent a quick note to her mate on her forearm and leaned back to settle in for the rest of the drive.

Dinner plans settled she wondered how the evening would progress. Coming out to her parents, divulging her lycanthropy, telling her parents she found her mate, which meant her soulmate, her forever…that was a lot for even the most open minded parents to take…

More than that, if they did somehow convince her parents to stay with Andy…she shuttered at what the trio would get up to. Not even sure her parents would give up their dental practice for the duration…This was about to be a very interesting summer holiday indeed.

They arrived home around 1pm and after unpacking Hermione asked if she could go pick up their dinner guest. Her parents saw the excitement in Hermione's eyes and could not deny their child's simple request.

With a pop Hermione apparated to her witch's flat. Using the key she had been recently given, the young witch opened the door. Her mate looked up and saw Hermione standing there in her sexy muggle clothes in the doorway. Tonks wasted no time and was on her mate, Hermione released a growl of excitement.

'Mmmhmmm' Tonks replied into the kiss as they fell to the floor. She barely had enough wherewithal to shut and lock her door with a flick of her wand, and then threw it away as she felt her clothes being torn savagely from her heating body.

Hermione broke the kiss to say breathily

'I missed you'. Tonks's face softened and leaned up for another piece of heaven in her mate's embrace and mouth.

'I love you, Merlin knows I do.' Tonks muttered

She got a sudden mischievous grin on her face as she wordlessly and wandlessly banished her wolf's clothes and snaked a hand to her mate's heated center.

'I missed this too mate, what say you ravish me before I meet the 'rents? We can show them what their freshly fucked daughter looks like eh?'

The crass statement had thoughts of what her mate had just said filling her head with lust and she gave into her beast's desires. Positioning herself on her mate's all too willing fingers she sunk into them as they pistoned in and out deliciously. She snaked her own hand down the sexy witch beneath her and plunged into the wet heat she so loved to feel tighten around her fingers...

Several hours later found them in Tonks's dilapidated bed, Hermione recovering from her first cigarette, and beginning another round of love making when an alarm went off in her muggle shredded jeans.

'Mmmmnnnnahhh, we ummmm have ahhhhhhh to nnnnnnggg stop.'

Tonks thrusted deeper into her love, unrelenting in her desire to see her lover cum one more time.

'Just…5…more…minutes…luv.' Tonks kissed Hermione on her neck as she kept thrusting.

'less if you cum sooner.' The older witch stated.

After a few minutes and several pleading cries from the brunette, Tonks flicked her thumb finally over Hermione's throbbing clit as she demanded into her mate's ear. 'Now, cum now sweet girl, cum for me now!'

'Ngggahhhh Nymphadora!' Hermione screamed loudly, pushing the extent of the silencing charm grabbing the metamorphmagus's back, pulling her closer, oh so much closer to her, sharpened nails digging into the elder witch's back.

Slowly riding out her climax, Hermione decreased the speed of her bucking hips, panting heavily. Words of love and adoration falling from her lips as they dropped into a pile of tangled limbs.

As solid as a wet noodle, the wolf struggled to move, as she said

'Shower,'

*pant pant*

Need…'

*pant pant*

'Shhhh luv, rest, we have a few minutes before we need to shower and get ready to meet your parents. Catch your breath beautiful girl.' Tonks said as she kissed the side of her wolf's head.

'... Although if you prefer to show up like this, I wouldn't complain. It would keep you in my bed longer…'. Tonks replied as she kissed her mate deeply.

After her brain regained function Hermione laughed as she got her breath back , 'ok ok, calm down you horny witch. I think I'm finally ready for that shower.'

'Pity, I was ready to…'

'Tonks!' Hermione lightly chided hitting her mate upside her pretty little head with a pillow lying by their heads

'shower!'The bookworm laughed out

'Alright alright coming, I'm coming'

'Not now but you will tonight' Hermione couldn't help the jibe as she swatted her mate in her gloriously naked behind.

The older witch laughed heartily at that as she started the shower.

'Merlin, I've corrupted you' Tonks chuckled out

'Well I personally don't think you've corrupted me enough.' Hermione said as she pulled her sexy mate into the shower. 'Come on, come on…I promise to scrub you extra clean'. She said while raising her eyebrows up and down in a decidedly joking manner.

Tonks laughed and was soon enveloped into the magically enlarged shower, as her mate dribbled body soap on her before making a thick lather on her skin...

They made sure each inch was -thoroughly- washed. Sensual touches and light chaste kisses were shared and they actually managed to mostly behave in the shower.

Once changed Hermione took Tonk's hand and apparated to the back yard of the Granger home.

When the wave of nausea finally cleared their heads from the side along apparition, Hermione looked at her muggle watch.

She turned to her mate and said, 'Good news, we're early! Mum would have killed me if we were late.'

Tonks looked around and saw an open shed in the backyard and before the younger witch could process what was happening, she grabbed Hermione by the front of her shirt and drug her inside.

'Tonks, mmmmnnn we dont't'.

*kiss, kiss*

'Have'

*kiss*

'Time'

Tonks pushed her witch against one of the walls as she undid her own pants putting the wolf's hand on her already soaked center.

'Come on 'mione, don't tell me you never had a fantasy about taking me in your family home, any second possibly getting caught.'

'Ummm'. Hermione was already fighting her instincts, as her wolf rattled its cage to be let out.

'I need you mate, I need you to take me!'

Must take mate! Mate needs us!

Oh for fucks sake, the witch thought …I really can't say no…

Grrr take mate!

Can't argue with that

'Mmmmmmm'. Tonks said as Hermione finally relented pushing deeply into her witch.

'Alright you win this one, but it has to be a quickie.'

Tonks laughed briefly at that, 'sure thing whatever you say. Just don't stop ahhhhh touching me nnnnggggghh.'

They had, what was supposed to be a quick romp, but turned into a little over a half hour where they almost destroyed another structure.

Quickly buttoning up their clothing and tidying up their hair they stumbled out of the, now slightly shaking shed laughing.

The pair finally made it to the front door, disheveled and promptly!
