Hi guys I'm back sorry for such a delay between the chapters!
The Other Spy
Chapter Eleven
Discovered
Ron had noticed a change in Hermione. She was spending more time with Professor Snape and he didn't like the idea of the greasy grit around his friend. Even with Harry and Ginny telling him she wanted her masters in potions and that Professor Snape was the best in the UK. Ron noticed it wasn't just the time with Snape it was the weight gain he noticed over the month. He told his self he would watch the witch closely.

Minerva kept a close eye Hermione when she walked into her classroom. The witch was the first student in the classroom and took her normal seat. Minerva walked up to the witch with a bit of concern. She sat down in the desk in front of her student.
"Hermione are you alright dear?" she asked quietly.
She had started calling the witch by her given name in private to make her more comfortable during her exams. He deputy began to care for her as a granddaughter. Minerva couldn't help but worry about the young woman before her.
Hermione shook her head. "Ron's catching on Minerva. He's noticing the weight gain and has began to watch me very closely. I'm scared he'll find out and than start looking for the dark mark. I'm glad Harry's trying to keep him off my back, but it's not working."
"Don't worry about Mr. Weaseley. Severus and I want let that happen. We've kept from everyone and it shall remain that way."
The students began to file into the classroom and Minerva stood up and walked to the front of the classroom. Harry and Ron took their seats beside Hermione. Professor McGonagall began her lecture. She asked questions, awarded points to those that answered them correctly. The professor assigned her class an essay and dismissed the class.

The trio walked down to the dungeons for potions class. Severus stood in the shadows near the door watching his students enter the room. He stepped into the light of the corridor.
"Miss Granger may I have a word?"
"Of course Professor."
"Take your seats and remain quiet. I'll be in a minute." he hissed at his students.
____________________________________________________________________
Severus took Hermione to the secret entrance to his office. He closed the door behind him. He opened a cabinet, pulled out elegantly cut teachers deep navy blue robes and a pair of heeled boots.
"Remove your school uniform and put this on."
"What this for Professor?" she asked as she removed her tie.
"You're teaching the class for the day. I'm being summoned."
"What! During the school hours!"
Severus slowly buttoned up the robes. Hermione pulled back her hair in a tight bun.
The wizard knew that the class wouldn't listen to a student that was the reason behind the teacher robes. They would listen to woman he knew she was a strong woman he had fallen in love with.
She couldn't teach her friends. It just wasn't done. She didn't even know a student could teach a class. She couldn't do it. They wouldn't listen to her especially the Slytherin house. Ron and Harry would think something was most defiantly think something was going on. What did the headmaster think? Did he even know?
"Come along Miss Granger it's time for your first class. You will do just fine," opening the door. "I do not trust the Headmaster with my class. The last time I did he only made them brew lemon drop juice," he told her walking down the corridor. "You are the best student I have Miss Granger."
_______________________________________________________________________
Professor Snape opened the door and Hermione stepped into the room followed by the wizard. He slammed the door behind him and the witch walked up the ale with the same attitude and her robes blew behind her. Severus was close behind. They both turned on the heels in the same fashion. They most definitely spent a large amount of time together for the witch to pick up the same similarities.
Harry and Ron looked around the room for their best friend, but they didn't see her. The red head thought the greasy grit had done something to his best friend.
Professor Snape cleared his throat. "I will not be here during this class, so I am placing my apprentice in charge of your class. You will do as Miss Granger says and you will respect her as you would me. If I hear that you have disrespected my apprentice you'll be spending the next month in detention with me scrubbing this classroom with a toothbrush every night from eight to midnight. I am understood?"
"Yes sir," the class said in unison.
"I'll leave you to your class Miss Granger," and leaned over to her ear. "You'll do just fine love."
Hermione visible relaxed and Severus swept down the ale and left the witch to teach his class.
Hermione walked behind the desk and pulled out the professor's ledger and flipped to the seventh year lesson plan. She smirked worthy of the Potions Master. The witch walked back to the front of the desk.
"Now, as Professor Snape said I'll be taking over for today. You will treat me with the respect of a professor. Now let us begin. What is the Amortenia Potion?"
The class remained silent. Hermione sighed and crossed her arms and raised a brow at the class.
"Someone must know the answer. I'm not Professor Snape but if you make a rude comment I'd make the professor seem like a holiday. Please answer the question. Mr. Malfoy.
Hermione couldn't show favoritism to her own house.
"Amortenia is the most powerful potion in the world causes a strong infatuation and obsession in the drinker."
The witch smirked at the wizard. "Very good Mr. Malfoy. Ten points to Slytherin," she said and tapped her wand and the ingredients appeared on the board. "Begin." Hermione snapped without realizing it.
The Gryffindor house looked at Hermione in shock. They thought they were starring at a female version of Professor Snape. The students grabbed their ingredients and quickly went to work.
Hermione sat down behind the desk. She masked her worry for the Potions Master well, due to Severus's help with clearing her face of emotion. She couldn't understand why the dark lord would call the spy during the school time hours.
Had the dark lord found where the Potions Master's loyalties truly laid with Dumbledore? Had he found out that they were keeping the baby and not giving the child to him as he requested? Gods what did he want with Severus?
________________________________________________________________________
Severus entered Voldemort's throne room and he knelled and kissed the hem of his robes. The dark wizard struck the spy across his face. Severus slowly turned his head and looked at the wizard in the eye.
Voldemort rose from his throne. "I let you back into my ranks. You, my must trusted follower turn on your master. My spy has informed me that you've protected Potter for six years! Your loyalties lay with Dumbledore," kicking the spy in the ribs braking them. "I gave you the honor of my heir!" and he pulled out his wand, "Curico!"
Severus kept his eyes connected to the red slits of the half snake half man. He wasn't going to give Voldemort the pleasure of hearing him scream. The wizard didn't hear the spy scream so he intensified the curse. Severus fell down into the fertile position as a scream threatened to escape his throat. Voldemort lift the cruse.
"You're strong Severus but you will die for your betrayal," waving his wand shackles appeared on his wrists and ankles and was pulled up against the stone wall and his clothes stripped. "You shall feel the pain of your own creation Severus. Sectumsempra," he hissed.
The spy's body flinched at the burn of cuts that were formed across his body. Severus only prayed that Hermione would remain safe and that his unborn baby would be safe. He watched as his blood poured down to the stone floor and suppressed the screams that wanted to come. The wizard closed his eyes as the pain intensified. Voldemort grew tried and stuck his wand up his sleeve and call for Wormtail to cut him.
The chubby wizard grinned evilly and stabbed the Potions Master and put the knife away and began to beat him braking bones.
"Enough!" hissed Voldemort. "I want him to died in front of those he loves," he flicked his wand and the spy fell to a heap onto the floor and he left the throne room followed by chubby wizard.
Luicus quickly ran over to his childhood friend and knelt down beside him. He threw his travel cloak over his body. He pulled out his wand and they were gone with a pop.
_______________________________________________________________________
Hermione dismissed the seventh year potions class. She could feel something was terribly wrong. She paced the room and a tear rolled down her face. The witch shook her head and grabbed her bag and quickly left the class room something was wrong, her mate was in trouble.
Hermione ran down the corridors as fast as her legs would let her.

Albus paced his office. It wasn't good that Voldemort called Severus during school hours. He stopped and quickly turned to the widow when saw a eagle patronus from the gate. It must be bad if Luicus took the chance of being discovered as a spy it only meant one thing that Voldemort knew were Severus's loyalties laid with him. The headmaster quickly left his office and ran down the corridors. The students quickly moved out of the elderly wizard's way.
Hermione saw the headmaster run out of the castle and she quickly threw her bag down and ran after the wizard. She quickly on his heels.
Hermione quickly beside her mate and looked up at Luicus with tears in her eyes. Albus looked at the witch with a stunned expression. The headmaster didn't ask questions at the moment. He waved his wand and a cot appeared and he elevated the wizard onto the cot and cast an invisiablity charm. They walked to the castle and took the Potions Master to his chambers. Hermione walked beside Luicus.
____________________________________________________________________
Albus laid Severus onto the bed and removed the charm. Hermione slowly lowered the cloak to his waist. The witch swayed and she buckled and her world went black. Luicus quickly caught her limp body.
"Oh Hermione, you shouldn't see Severus like this." he whispered and lifted the witch into his arms and took her into common room and laid her down on the couch. He walked over to the fireplace and threw some floo powered into the fireplace. "Minerva."
The deputy's head appeared in the fireplace. "Luicus." she said in shock.
"Come to Severus's chambers now. He's been discovered."
"Oh dear lord," she quickly stepped through with a medical bag. "Hermione."
"She saw Severus."
The witch sighed, "Stay with her."
He nodded and Minerva walked into the bedroom. She closed the door.
"Oh dear lord," slowly covered her mouth in shock. She now understood why Hermione fainted.
