Captured and Forced
Chapter 7
Standing right there in front of them was Lucius and two other death eaters. Draco stood in front of Hermione.
Lucius said, "Did you really think that leaving this manor that you would be unnoticed?"
Draco said, "How do you know of this place?"
He said, "I know everything that goes on in this house and a death eater told me. You can't take her away from here unless she is married to you and pregnant."
Draco said, "I am not going to force her into marrying me and having a baby when I know she hates me."
"How dare you stand up to me, Draco over that filth that our lord has chosen because of her status in the golden trio," said Lucius.
Draco said, "It is very simple and even though you think I weak I love this girl and have for a long time. I did what you asked because I felt that I needed to, but I will not anymore."
Hermione asked, "What?"
He turned around and said, "I said that I love you, Hermione."
"Draco, you shall be faced by our lord and she'll be tortured by him too," said Lucius as two of the death eaters took them both away.
Hermione screamed, "No!"
Voldemort chained her up and looked at her. He laughed at the look of fear on her face.
Hermione questioned, "How can you hate mudbloods when you are one yourself?"
Voldemort pointed his wand at her and said, "Silencio," then screamed, "Crucio."
She started to shake violently. While he cast that spell he entered her mind and saw all her memories of this year. He was going to use them against her.
He said, "You punched your own friend because he cheated on you. You deserved it you filth."
Draco screamed, "Don't touch her!"
Lord Voldemort said, "Should I kill her or torture her in front of you, Malfoy?"
Hermione said, "Neither," with anger on her face, "I can't wait for the day Harry kills you."
Voldemort said, "Lucius take care of her."
Hermione said, "Too scared to say anything," then said, "you're the filthy mudblood, Voldemort. You kill and torture people without pity."
Voldemort smacked her and said, "Don't talk to me like that, ever, mudblood."
She spat in his face and he hit her again. Hermione refused to cry. Lucius used the cruciatus curse on her. She had hit the floor and she was knocked unconscious. She was sent back to Draco's room and they were both under surveillance.
Draco moved a strand of hair out of her face and caressed her cheek. She stirred and regained consciousness.
He said, "Sorry that I got you attacked by saying that to my father and sorry that I woke you."
Draco was still caressing her face when she held his hand and said, "It's okay. I can stand the cruciatus curse and I tried to block him from getting into my head, but he invaded my mind."
Hermione hugged Draco and said, "Thank you for trying to protect me though."
He kissed her and said, "I was just trying to help. I don't want anyone hurting you and that includes your friends. I think they thought we were together by the way I had my arms wrapped around you and that I whispered in your ear."
Hermione said, "I thought Harry was going to be mad since he likes me, but he seemed very calm and okay with it as long as you weren't hurting me."
Draco said, "I thought he was going to kill me, but we all know that he couldn't do that."
"The conceded Malfoy comes back out," said she.
They started laughing and he said, "Am not, but I'll admit that I was. It wasn't my fault."
Hermione whispered, "I love you too, Draco."
He asked, "What?"
She said, "I love you."
He said, "Wow. How long have you?"
Hermione said, "Since first year but then you started making fun of all of us and as Harry and Ron protected me I pushed away my feelings."
He said, "Me too except the Harry and Ron thing."
They smiled at each other and he kissed her. They pulled back and look into each other eyes. They got lost in each other's eyes and started kissing again. It got deeper as he slid his tongue into her mouth and they played with each other's tongue, then, Draco started kissing Hermione's neck. He bit down and sucked on her neck causing a hickey.
She said, "Draco, you're giving me a hickey."
Draco said, "Yeah and now you're mine."
"Wow," said Hermione.
He questioned, "What?"
Hermione said, "It's just that muggles do that to claim their boyfriends or girlfriends."
"Oh," said Draco.
"Yeah, but I guess since you marked me that I am yours 'til this goes away," said she.
Draco said, "Aww."
She said, "What do you want me to be your girlfriend or something?"
He said, "Will you?"
"Hmm, sure," replied Hermione.
He said, "Cool," and kissed her again.
She said, "You must love me."
"Well, I told you that already," said Draco.
Hermione said, "Really?"
Draco said, "Yes, I did and I'll repeat it. I love you."
She said, "For the first time in a while I'm happy."
"You weren't happy?" questioned Draco.
Hermione said, "I wasn't happy because nobody had paid attention to me and that includes my own boy friend."
He said, "Since we're stuck in here I can't ignore you and wouldn't."
