A/N: I recently ran across an Indy film that co-stars the actress that plays Tonks. It's called:
"Anchor and hope"
A line in the film, that I thought was great:
"I think humanity will be just fine without your vagina making it worse"
…So great, that I decided to include it in this chapter, as my own little nod to the movie and personal challenge.
Warning: this chapter has some possible rape triggers in it, I will put the warning before and after the section.
"…so the muggles nicknamed it the "Wobbly Bridge" after pedestrians experienced an alarming swaying motion on its opening day. The total length is 325 meters, and it is 4 meters wide…"
Tonks softly chuckled at her bookworm wife. So many things had changed recently, she was relieved to realize that her mate, deep down, was still the delightful nerd she had first met.
'ooff,' the metamorphmagus groaned. Her wife had stopped short and backhanded her playfully in the abdomen.
'Come on Tonksy are you even listening!?' Insecurity shining through the teasing, so many years of being made fun of for her bookworm tendencies.
Tonks shook her head, she chuckled to herself as she rubbed her somewhat sore stomach. 'careful luv, I'm listening, I'm listening,' the older witch reached forward and hugged the somewhat frustrated witch a small distance in front of her, calming the storm of insecure emotions.
'shhh, luv do you know how sexy I find your seemingly unending knowledge.'
'It's just that I've always been made fun o…wait, what?' the brunette stopped mid-sentence.
Speaking into the now confused younger witch's ear, she presses her front closer to the strong figure in front of her. 'your brilliant mind is truly a thing of wonder,' kissing the young werewolf's cheek she continued. 'your heart, your body, your mind…Merlin the things you do to me. I love every part about who you are, I am truly blessed to be bonded to such a wonderful being.'
Hermione closed her eyes, released the breath she had been unconsciously holding, and placed her hands over the ones surrounding hers.
Home
A sense of calm settled over Hermione, this was a moment of …what?…she guessed if she were to put into words, it was a single moment in time where everything was perfect. The scents of her mate surrounding her, fully supporting her, and the light breeze from the river Thames below, sun shining, the overpowering feeling of completeness surrounding her…
'Hmm' mindlessly mumbled, smiling while keeping her eyes closed, squeezing her mate closer.
Nothing can last forever, especially not a perfect moment…unfortunately a few moments of bliss later, through closed eyes, purring lightly she noticed a strange smell being carried from the west. Blinking, the wolf opened her eyes as the sky began to darken, shades of sepia began to overwhelm the normal rainbow of colors surrounding muggle London.
'What in the world…'

Several hours earlier…
Riotous laughter could be heard bleeding out of the Tonks/Granger flat.
'….ah ha ha ha ha, when your mum said that they were going to have grand babies! Ah haha hahahahahahaha! And then I said I was late! Phhhhhaaahahahha…you bloody well passed out! The proud wolf passed out!'
The taller brunette crossed her arms across her chest in a pouting manner. Frown marring her features, she mumbled to herself incoherently.
The pink haired witch straightened out, hearing her mate grumble, she laughed even harder and added, "It was all worth it to see the look on your face when I said Gotcha!'
An audible, "Bloody Black women…" was mixed in the muttering.
"Oi, luv I'm also half Tonks, don't you forget that." The shorter witch encased her love in a tender embrace. They basked in their loving embrace, before the metamorphmagus muttered… 'besides, I think humanity will be just fine without your vagina making it worse'

The wolf slowly opened her previously closed eyes, hurt shining through…
Mate doesn't want our children…doesn't want children of the moon…
Wait…that…that can't be right…maybe she means not this soon…but then again…maybe she just doesn't want…my…my children…
Tonks felt the woman in her arms begin to pull away, and shrink into herself…wait what did I say… 'shite…fuck Hermione, that's not what I meant…I was just saying with the overpopulation, and pollution..but know this, I would be honored to carry our children. Even with magic, it is rare that 2 women can conceive a child without loads of help…I love you, I always will. If I do have children, I wouldn't want anyone else to be the paternal parent. You, YOU are my match, my forever, my everything. That comment was meant to be funny, an old relic of an old way of thinking I used to have. I am much more hesitant than most to have children. Black women, don't exactly have the best reputation. So many of my ancestors have gone crazy..I…I just worry that my crazy would infect an innocent baby…I just…I just…don't go…'
Hermione lifted her head halfway through to see the woman she fell for completely lose her battle with cascading tears.
Mate is sad…we made mate sad… her wolf whined, pacing back and forth
'Shhh, shhh luv, I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions, it feels like I have 2 minds warring upstairs. My instincts sometimes scream at me, tell me things my logical mind often wouldn't ever think…but, I will admit that bit did hurt. I know you didn't mean it luv, and yes, we are very young. I hear the bit about overpopulation, and I know the arguments, because I have spouted them as well,' the brunette chuckled as she wiped her wife's cheek clear of wetness. 'I am curious however…'. Hermione chewed her bottom lip nervously, '…umm, it's just that does my lycanthropy affect your…'
'Oh heavens no, luv, I accept every part about you, and would love to have your children, no matter the species.' Tonks quickly reassured her obviously worried mate.
The resulting beaming smile helped heal her tortured heart…
Time skip
The newlyweds had taken a few hours getting ready, honestly…it wasn't the wolf's fault. She had seen her cheeky witch do a striptease when she had insisted on getting ready and going out for the early afternoon date.
Hermione's mouth had gone dry at the vision of her mate grinding against the air, clad only in her thong…
It wasn't her fault that she had tackled the now cackling older witch to their bed.
It wasn't her fault that they had pushed their early afternoon date to a late afternoon date when Tonks pleaded with her wolf to just not stop what she was doing...
It was however her fault that she didn't let her witch wear a stitch of clothing until she had ripped as many earth smashing orgasms as she could from her mate.
This was how they had come to make their way after a romantic late lunch towards the Millennium Bridge…
Eyes widened, chocolate turning to yellow, a flash of fear for her mate, low whimpering began to fall from her clenched lips.
Many people mistook Tonk's natural clumsiness as a lack of competency. Nothing could be further from the truth, the moment the metamorphmagus felt the shift in the area her training kicked in. Her wand, seemingly appearing from nowhere, was quickly gripped as she tightened her other arm around her mate.
The wobble bridge was now fully living up to its name, as plumes of black smoke appeared all around them. These strange occurrences seemed to be almost flying through the air, as if a person or machine was driving the force. Strange flashes of light left the dark clouds, attacking the unsuspecting muggles as a barrage of attacks hit the support beams.
'Hold on luv,' Tonks muttered in her wolf's ear. The pair became a burst of white smoke as they flew through the air. In no time parts of the bridge exploded, one after another.
Spells flew around, as the magical pair were the only protection the confused and scared muggles had. Two against a complete detachment of Death Eaters, was not odds that the pair were happy with.
This had been the first time that Hermione had ever been engulfed in her mate's white smoke, but she had little time to adjust, as she had to get on the offensive immediately. Scouring her nearly perfect eidetic memory, the bookworm fired off as many spells as she could. The flurry of activity was relentless, perhaps that is why neither witch could see the dark smoke headed right for them.
Hermione had no warning, she felt an explosion happen right between Tonks and herself. As the young wolf fell, she could see two Aurors apparate into the sky, flying in tandem to catch their unconscious falling co-worker. A brief smile crossed her face at the acknowledgement that her wife would be saved, until she realized she was still falling fast to what was to be her almost certain demise...
The young wolf sees her life flash before her eyes: the first time she ever rode the boats to Hogwarts, the time her boys saved her from the Troll, the Chamber of Secrets, Mooney biting her, her first change into her wolf, becoming the Alpha that it seemed she was born to be, Luna, the horrid pink disaster, the Department of Mysteries, seeing her mate for the first time, the first time that she and her mate…
The sound of the rushing river came closer and closer…
'I love you Nymphador…OOOF!'
'ah ah ah Muddy, can't have my toys broken before I've had a turn'
A/N: Possible rape triggers follow
She was jolted from her near death experience as the Blackest of witches caught her and whispered into her ear as they accelerated back to above sea level. Frozen in terror at the turn of events, the wolf had no time to adjust before she was apparated to another location entirely.
.

.
An unknown darkly lit room is where she landed harshly. Quickly, before she could get her bearings, she felt invisible ropes latching onto her appendages, holding her to the cold marble floor.
A harsh cackling fills the empty room, Bellatrix Lestrange slowly saunters up to the prone wolf, she eyes her prize. The Death Eater took her time to painstakingly remove her corset, revealing milky white heaving breasts with obviously aroused rosy perky tips. A whispered diffindo removes all traces of covering the younger witch had. Hermione felt exposed, and truly terrified for the first time in her life, at what might happen to her. Her wand had fallen some time during her descent. The crazed older witch licked her lips as she lowered the last barrier of clothes either of them had, roaming her eyes over her prize as she did so.
Hermione's wolf was conflicted, her body had natural reactions to the undeniably beautiful women, that could not be helped. Even in her terror, she could not stop her brilliant mind from hypothesizing that her body had no control over it's traitorous actions. She had read somewhere that many victims of rape often felt shame and hated how their bodies couldn't help but react to the ministrations happening to their bodies against their will. Her body was indeed reacting to being naked and now straddled in the most intimate way by the crazed, but beautiful witch. She could not help but feel herself get wet at the touch of the voluptuous body grinding into her core, squeezing her perky breasts in a painful, but unfortunately arousing way.
She was broken from her inner turmoil by the crazed witch's voice.
'My my muddy, or should I call you wolfie? I can smell the wild hound within you, it is intoxicating. You are now more that what you were born to be…Your inner beast…it is like an aphrodisiac to me…
.
.
.
I just have to taste that tight little…'
Bella shoves a thigh between Hermione's now open legs. Against her will she moans at the contact
No, stop. My mate…grrrrr the wolf growled, rattling against it's cage, but the human couldn't help her reactions.
'Mmmm, my…Tonks,'. Both human and wolf cried out. '…mmmm uhaaahh stop, stop I'm mated to your niece! Mmmmm ahhhh, don't stop…no no no no no stop!.. grrr
her inner wolf was chomping at the bit to shift and stay true to her mate…her… 'grrrrrrttttTONKS!'
With a burst of magical strength she broke the magical bind Bellatrix held over the wolf, and shifted on the spot, growling digging her paws on the dirt, clothes flying in the wind every which way.
Bellatrix lets out scream, as she is flung against a tree, shaking her head once she stops moving she catches the magical signature floating in the air…expression changing instantly.
A/N: End possible trigger scene
'What?!'
'She didn't'
Dumbfounded, the crazed witch sobered. Seeming to forget entirely about her nudity, the now more sane dark witch approached the heaving animal, seething in ferocity.
'I thought the ritual was lost centuries ago…I thought it was just a myth…'
Bellatrix slowly stood moving onyx unruly curls out of her eyes…the wolf tilted it's head to the side, obviously confused at the turn of events.
Eyes wide, the dark witch spoke again, ' so you've bonded as a black then?'
The wolf narrowed its eyes growl simmering but not stopping as the beast slowly nodded its large head.
A clear pout on the dark lord's lieutenant's face 'Andy always ruins my fun…' Bella crosses arms across her heaving chest, kicking the dirt.
A sharp growl increased, wolf hunkering down, ready to attack.
'Oh don't get your fur in a twist, you can change back you know…I won't hurt you'
Beast give look like you've got to be joking me.
Bella did something strange, she dropped her wand and raised her hands
'Weather you know it or not you have bonded with a Black, it is ancient blood magic, your very own blood status changed that night. Your blood is as pure as mine, Madame Black.
Hermione knew of this, from Andy explaining it earlier, but had no idea anyone else would have been able to sense it. The wolf shook her head as she slowly turned into a very naked but still furious brunette. Her stance was wide, still managing to remain threatening.
Bella unabashedly stared at the stunning creature before her and winked, she bloody winked at the fuming brunette. Chuckling at the younger witch the elder Black transfigured a rock to a cloak to cover her own newly discovered kin.
Accepting the cloak, Hermione spoke. 'Yes, your sister informed me yesterday of this development…not that I understood it at the time…but nevertheless I would not change a thing.'
Bellatrix smiled at her lost sister. 'I am crazy as sin, but on the subject of my family, my mind is as clear as it can be. I will not harm my kin, no matter what the Order, or my long lost sister says, I protect my family. Andy may disagree, but you would be surprised the lengths I have gone to keep my sister safe…make no mistake I have done terrible things, oh yes I have enjoyed them too…but, some things I have done, has been to protect her and my little sister…know this young one, I cannot betray my lord, but I will never harm a Black.'
The dark witch quickly made her clothes reappear on her body, while the bookworm's head was near exploding at the new information.
The dark witch broke the constant flux of information swimming in the young wolf's mind. Leaning forward and kissing the cheek of the stunned brunette.
Bella took her infamous bird skull necklace off her neck, and handed it to Hermione, 'Here give this to my hard headed niece, I trust you can protect yourself, but my niece is just like me wild strong powerful and thick headed, this is an ancient Black family heirloom, it holds the only known counter spell to the killing curse…well besides whatever that Potty boy has…know that I give this to your mate to carry on the Black line, it is obvious she will carry your pups at some point in time.' The dark witch cackled after the last bit.
'Oh Merlin not you too…' Shaking her head as she mumbles.
Bellatrix could do nothing but continue to laugh. Calming down, she continued 'But yes I have a vested interest in not letting the Black line die with me. If word has not reached you, I am barren, have been since Rod..since he…he…the things one does for her sister…never mind…, just go find your witch'
Confused, and surprisingly feeling for the elder crazed witch in this instance the wolf takes a step forward, intending to comfort her tormentor, but Bellatrix would not have it.
Standing up Bellatrix walked away, but looked over her shoulder after a few steps and says, ' I won't do anything to harm the bond you both share. No matter what people think, family is the most important thing to a Black. Be safe, protect my sister and my niece through this. I cannot offer more'
With no more words she apparates the brunette to saftey, and vanishes from Hermione's sight.
