Chapter 49: The Witch, The Werewolf, and The Interloper

Unknown Location, Forbidden Forest, Wizarding World...

A feral growl had come from Were-Snape as he found himself towering above what appeared to be the were form of the girl Reka from before. He had not known where he father and brother's had been but he found himself instantly aroused in her company. All thought of Hermione Granger and the command of the father had faded, He simply wanted...needed to mate with this female knowing all too well that she had been in heat and that it had been intoxicating. The large ebony wolf positioned himself behind the submissive female as she rolled over onto her belly hiking her tail and hindquarters into the air. A whimper escaped her as their fur covered bodies. A whine escaped Were-Snape as he found that his enormous beast cock had been painfully hard. He growled when Reka rubbed her warm hindquarters against his protruding flesh. It had been some time since he had taken Hermione to bed and the frustration was evident as he dug his razor sharp claws into the earth splitting it apart with ease.

The need to mate had been controlling his body as the intoxication of this she-wolf's scent continued to leave his mind in a daze. Reka whimpered as she came in contact with his cock and he growled then proceeded to bite at her neck. The rough play only seemed to intensify Were-Snape's lust and he had been about to take the plunge when a voice called out from the trees.

"SEVERUS!" it said getting his attention.

The scent of jasmine hit him and began to overpower the scent of the she-wolf. He let out another whimper before he heard the voice a second time.

"STUPEFY!"

The whole world went dark for the beast.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Unknown Location, Forbidden Forest, Wizarding World...

Severus Snape awoke to find himself bound to a nearby tree. He growled as his feral side began to bleed into his human form. His eyes glowed with the need to sate his blood-lust and the scent of jasmine had only proved to strengthen that rage that seemed to boil inside him. Hermione Granger made her presence known when she was sure that Snape had been bound securely.

"Severus." she said softly.

He groaned as he continued to struggle against the binds.

"Severus I have a plan." she said steeling herself against his whimpers. "I have been doing some reading, and I found that there is a way to keep from having to obey Hircine's hunt decree."

The Potions Master listened, the last bit of information had gotten his attention.

"T-Tell...Tell now!" he demanded angrily despite what he wished to say.

"According to the reading, you have to hunt something called a white stag." said Hermione. "Once the stag is slain you may ask anything of Hircine and he will grant it as a reward for the hunt."

"UNTIE!" demanded Snape struggling against the bonds. "UNTIE NOW...NEED WITCH...NEED WITCH NOW!"

"Severus, you are still under the compulsion to harm me." said the amber eyed witch sadly. "If I were to do that..."

"UNTIE!" he shouted. "UNTIE...NO HURT THE FEMALE...NEED...NEED NOW!"

"I'm sorry Severus." she said.

"HERMIONE!" shouted Snape struggling against the magical binds that she put in place.

His temper was getting the better of him, as was his apparent baser nature. The amber eyed witch sighed knowing that he was being deeply tormented. He wished for connection with her again, but Hircine's compulsion made that next to impossible.

The witch set up camp for the night not wishing to leave a bound and helpless Severus alone in the woods. There would be questions as to why she had been absent but she had not cared. Her main goal was to help her ailing lover get passed this and possibly find a way for him to deal with living as a werewolf as Lupin had.

Little did she know...the two of them had company in the form of an interloper in heat.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Unknown Location, Forbidden Forest, Wizarding World...

The she-wolf known as "Reka" made her way into the camp that Hermione had set up. Her wicked smile at seeing a sleeping Severus Snape bound to a tree had been more than a little amusing.

The young she-wolf had her sights set on the wizard's humanoid form but her true target had been the wolf that lurked deep within him. Severus Snape's obsidian eyes opened and he found himself face to face with the seemingly opportunistic she-wolf.

"Too young." he growled noting the scent of her body in heat.

"That's not what you were thinking before." replied Reka with a low growl as she ran her fingers across his bare chest.

"Stupid girl." he said in a vicious tone. "You have no idea what you are getting yourself into."

"You need a mate that can satisfy you." said Reka with a grin. "Not some little witch who doesn't deserve to be on the arm of an Alpha."

"My witch." replied Snape struggling against the magical bindings. "Need my witch...Hermione."

"And the moment you're free you'd probably snap her pretty little neck given how much blood lust you have accumulated." said Reka.

Snape caught the scent of Hermione's jasmine hair once more and a low growl rumbled deep in his throat.

Reka seemed delighted by the sheer aggression Snape showed as he continued to struggle against the magical binds that held him.

"NEED WITCH." he growled with a starved expression filed across his face.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

The Tent, Unknown Location, Forbidden Forest, Wizarding World...

Hermione had done her best to get try and get how much Severus was struggling off her mind. She had paid little to no attention to the looming figure standing behind her. In one foul swoop, Severus Snape had managed to capture the trembling witch in his pale arms and pulled her into his kiss. Hermione noted that he had been covered in blood and was sweating profusely.

"Severus...what did you do?" she asked unsure if she wanted to really know.

"My witch." he growled pressing her into his body harder.

She could tell straight away that he had been aroused and did her best to keep a level head. One wrong more and he could kill her in an instant.

Moving rather slowly, Hermione managed to bring her hands to his bare, blood covered chest.

He seemed to delight in her touch and the rumble of something akin to a purr escaped his lips.

"Severus..." she said.

"Need you." said Snape gripping her as the scent of jasmine filled his nostrils. "Need you now."

Before Hermione knew it, Snape had tackled her to the floor and pressed his lean muscular frame between her slender thighs. His antics increased as he ripped apart the constricting clothing whimpering all the while. She could offer little protest as she felt him as she had so many times before but his pace had been frantic.

"My witch." he hissed as his body pounded into hers as if he were looking to reclaim her.

Hermione didn't know what to make of his antics. She feared he'd lose complete control and likely bring about her death before they could make it to the white stag.

She had not known what it was that he had killed before coming to get her but she hoped it was enough to stave off his blood lust. His physical lust for her had been another matter altogether.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hours Later...

Severus Snape let out a howl that signaled the end of his frantic coupling with Hermione and collapsed onto his back gasping for breath. Sweat covered the both of them as she lay silent not sure wither her movement would set him off again. The werewolf didn't seem to have any malicious intent toward her at the moment as he rolled onto his side and scooted his body close to hers.

There were marks on her back from the rough treatment her warped lover had given her. They seemed to fade once he kissed them and continued to pull her close.

The blood being all over him was still a valid concern for the witch as Snape nuzzled her shoulder with his cheek.

"S-Severus?" she said unsure if she should disturb him.

"Hmmm." he replied kissing her shoulder and inhaling her scent.

"The blood on your chest when you arrived...where did it come from?" asked Hermione.

Snape growled and stretched his beast nature was asserting more control given Hircine's influence over him.

"Went for a hunt." he replied.

"Severus that's not an answer." said Hermione growing concerned.

Snape got to his feet and moved toward the tent's exit.

Hermione spelled on a robe and followed him not at all sure she wanted to see what he had done.

There was blood everywhere.

So much of it pooled near a mutilated carcass. She feared the carcass belonged to a human or something with sentient life.

However when they finally stopped, she could just make out what use to be a horn.

"You've killed another deer?" she asked relieved that was all it had been.

The witch's eyes widened when she noted a rather large pile of deer carcasses.

"Y-You've been busy." she said still stunned that he had gotten out of her trap.

She felt the familiar need to vomit when he presented the hearts of these dead creatures to her as he always had.

There was no sign of Reka, possibly due to the amount of force Severus used when he escaped. There had been no doubt that she might have wished for him to lose control and murder his own mate but it didn't quite work out the way she anticipated.

Hermione looked at the wild wizard whom had stolen her heart so soon after saving her life from Professor Lupin. She knew she had to get him under control before anyone from the death eaters got wind of his true potential, especially Voldemort.

"Come back to bed Severus." she said satisfied that he had not murdered anyone. "We have a good deal to do come morning."

The wolfish-Potions Professor followed her back to the tent contented that she had been pleased with his gift of deer hearts.
