Severus had never been so ready to clobber Lucius so badly before and that was saying something. The two of them had been more then friends, they had been brothers since they were eleven. And like any brothers they got into fights and it had in the past become physical, again like any true brothers. They had always been able to rely on each other though, know that they could trust and lean on each other when it was needed. But right now he wanted to wrap his hands around his friend's neck and strangle the very life out of him. Lucius had done some bloody idiotic things with Narcissa and she had actually deserved them, the word whore was too good for her not to mention she had been a true criminal. Harry was an innocent child of sixteen who had done nothing to deserve the fear his husband was continually putting in him and he certainly didn't deserve what had been done to him either. Severus had done an exam unnoticed by Harry when he had sat down, just a basic test to see if Harry had been raped, and had been relieved to see Harry's husband had at least not gone that far.
Harry had not told him how he had got out of there and he was starting to wonder. Lucius was not about to allow his husband to run to his dads even if he had stopped. Harry had known the password to his apartments and he was a bit surprised Harry had not come to him. But he had his suspicions including Harry would have likely been worried that Lucius could follow him. And likely in the pain and terror he was in he had not been thinking and his home password had come to mind quicker. Severus knew Harry would have to return to his husband eventually, for Lucius had the right to touch him, but he would make sure it was safe for Harry. He had come to look at Harry like a son and he was not about to allow Harry to be returned to his husband until he knew he was safe.
He had spoken to the elves at school and found out Lucius had not returned and George said he had left. Severus found that Lucius had returned to the townhouse and he found his old friend was pacing in the bedroom looking more irate then he had ever seen him. Severus threw a binding charm at Lucius whose force threw Lucius up against the wall behind him and pinned him there.
Lucius looked at him in shock. "What the hell are you doing Severus? You can not simply come in here and attack me, brother or no brother."
Severus snarled. "You better be glad I didn't hang you from your feet from the roof and start casting cruciatus curses on you, oh big brother of mine."
He noticed Lucius had not even had the decency to clear up the mess he had made and saw Harry's clothes strewn around the room. He could only imagine the terror that Harry had been feeling as his husband had been attacking him. He still had no idea what had set his brother off but he had every intention of finding out and his brother was not going to be let down until he found out the answers.
Lucius struggled against it. "Let me guess my little lambykins of a husband came sobbing to you and you believed it? He is a whore like Narcissa, a dirty whore."
Severus snarled and tightened the bonds. "Harry is no such thing and if you utter those words about your husband again I will cut off your balls."
Lucius was laughing almost at how protective he seemed to be of Harry. Severus did not find it funny at all and decided to show Lucius a bit of what it felt like to be his husband and removed all of Lucius' clothes and smiled as he noticed his brother's cane with its snake head and fangs. He animated the head and started moving it towards his brother and his now uncovered cock. He could see the fear in Lucius' face.
He stopped it a second. "Is that how he looked, your husband, when you tore his clothes off? The fear in your eyes. Maybe I should make you scream as he did."
Lucius snarled. "The snivelling brat did not scream, he cried and tried to make me feel bad for him. The little slut was caught snogging Blaise in alcoves."
It made sense to Severus the way his brother had acted from what Blaise had told him about the run in. Lucius had some how got it in his head that Harry and Blaise had been snogging in alcoves together and then had caught the two of them together. It was just like Lucius though to have his head so far up his ass that he had not even bothered to ask his husband about it before he had jumped to conclusions.
He made the snake fangs graze his brother. "You moron, Harry was in the owlery with me writing to his dads. Who told you he was snogging Blaise in an alcove?"
Lucius was starting to cringe away from the snake head and his anxiousness was increasing. "They didn't tell me, I over heard Ron and some lions going on."
Not on his cock but on his inner thigh Severus allowed the snake to sink his metal fangs into Lucius, his anger boiling over. The idiot knew that the Gryffindors had been out for Harry since he had married Lucius. Ron had attacked Harry on at least one occasion that they had known about. They had likely thought they would get expelled if they kept down that path so they had decided to get back at Harry by having his husband go after him instead, and he fell right into their hands.
He took the cane away. "You believed the kid who has attacked your husband and made his life miserable? Did it never occur to you that he was trying to hurt him?"
Lucius was trying to catch his breath as the fear was ebbing a bit. "Why the hell did the brat not just tell me then? Instead of getting me angry and then attacking me."
Severus could not believe this; he went up and physically smacked his brother across the face. Harry had been molested, abused and raped by his Uncle from a very young age and Lucius knew that. Harry while brave in other areas became a caged animal backed into a corner when it came to anything intimate. He had no idea what he set his husband off and no idea how to calm him down, and had nearly gone catatonic in fear.
Severus released the bond but not before kicking his brother where the snake had not bit. "You let your husband's tormentors trick you into nearly raping him."
Lucius sunk down to his knees. "I didn't know damn it. I thought he was a whore like Narcissa. I have to see him. I have to make this right with him."
Severus could not believe his brother even thought for a moment he would let him any where near Harry right now. He had attacked and nearly raped the boy. The law might say that he had the right to touch his husband like that but the surrogate father in Severus did not agree with the law. Nothing gave Lucius that right. Nothing.
Lucius tried to stop him from leaving. "He is my husband; I can have you on charges of kidnapping. He is still a minor even if married, and under my protection."
Severus rounded on him. "If you want to have balls left I would shut the hell up. Harry will come back when he is safe. And when you get your head out of your ass."
With that Severus turned and stalked out, Lucius' words running through his head. He had already been wondering about how Harry had escaped and now he was wondering even more. Harry he could not even imagine in a state of shock attacking his husband. He assumed Harry had not attacked but just protected himself against Lucius and his advances. But right now he just needed to check on him. He could not even believe that Lucius would have believed Ron. When he got back to Grimmauld he told Harry's dads what he had found out.
Sirius looked towards his son's door. "How ever he managed to get away from Lucius I am grateful. I can't even believe he would believe Ron over his own husband."
