Chapter Sixteen: All is Fair in Love and War
Three days ago…
**Flashback**
Severus stormed into his laboratory, sorting through images of the boy crying. It had been more than a shock when Potter had cried, but even more so, when the boy told him the three words never once had any one said to him. He scoffed; Harry Bloody Potter, son of James Potter, his childhood torturer, was in love with him. What joke was the boy playing at? No one loved a sadist ex-Death Eater. No one.
He heard the door at the opposite side of the cottage slam shut, and he waited as he heard the boy's running footsteps and streaming thoughts. The emotions Potter felt rolled through him, leaving him gasping and holding onto the mantel he stood next to. Before he could gather himself, the boy's thoughts and feelings were gone.
He stalked out of the room and into the living area. He would let the boy run away, for the moment. He needed his own moment to run away. He took a glass of fire whisky from the cupboard and drank his memory away.
Morning rolled in and Severus was woken with a feeling of pure horror. He stood, his body reacting to the danger that snuck its way in. He could locate Potter, but the boy was no where nearby. His heart hammered in his chest, though the old thing probably had to remember how to do so.
Only one name came to mind when he realized where Harry was: Lucius Malfoy's estate. It took no time at all for Severus Snape to locate his owl, having written a quick letter to Dumbledore, and sending the bird on its way. He was losing his control by the minute. While he knew what the man was capable of, he knew the restrictions that Voldemort had put on him would make him focus on two acts mainly.
Knowing where Potter was located was only the first part of his horror. He knew that as soon as he arrived near the boy, his instincts and heart would take over, whether he had control or not. He knew that as soon as he saw Lucius Malfoy, it would be nothing less of a battle ending in one of their deaths. Lucius Malfoy knew he had overstepped a boundary by taking Harry away.
Severus let out a groan when he began to run through ways of getting to Harry Potter. Ways in which, he was sure would end up severing all his abilities to spy for Dumbledore.
When Severus Snape arrived in Dumbledore's office, the man was sitting, his eyes grave and glazed. He looked as if the one letter had aged him considerably. Severus stalked forward, hands on the man's desk, staring with blazing eyes.
"We need to leave," he said almost violently.
"Sit," Dumbledore said with a saddened tone.
"No," Severus said taken aback. "We need to leave right now. Merlin knows what Lucius is doing to the boy right now."
"As I have considered Severus, but we cannot simply stroll in there without any kind of plan," Dumbledore said with sympathetic eyes. Those eyes in which Severus currently wanted to remove from their sockets.
"I do not need a plan," he said coolly. "He has what is mine, thus gives me more than enough reason to take it back."
"It being Harry," Dumbledore said sadly. "I understand a great deal Severus. However, I must speak with the minister and receive a warrant to enter the premises. I do not want Harry to be hurt, but it is imperative that this be done legally."
"You are bloody mad," Severus said in his anger. "Lucius is probably raping and abusing Potter and you are worried about the legality of entering his home?"
"Severus, I must insist that you calm down. I will get Harry back, but until then, you are not to do a thing, is that understood?" Dumbledore eyed him carefully.
"How long will this bloody warrant take, Albus?"
"A few days. I will go and do what I can to put priority on it," Dumbledore said matter-of-factly. "He will not be killed."
"That is too long, Albus!"
"It must be done," Dumbledore said sternly.
Severus turned on his heels, having heard enough and left the room, closing the door with a violent slam. It was an absolute outrage. Lucius could be doing anything to the boy right now, and he would get away with it because they needed a warrant. Absolute bloody rubbish.
Harry was thrown hard against the cool wall of stone. He cried out as the blow almost sent him spiraling into unconsciousness. He cringed as a hand went around his throat, pressing hard and stopping his air flow. He reeled his head back, gasping with what he could. He grabbed at the hands, but they did not let go.
"St-op," he was finally able to get out. The hand let go, and he doubled over in his coughing fit. On all fours, he gasped and breathed for the life of him. A foot connected with his ribcage, and he was sent forward, head hitting stone. He cried out once more as the steady thump, thump sent pain shrieking through his limbs. Another kick, and he was coughing, crying, begging the assailant to cease the body shattering kicks.
"I take pleasure in in those beautiful tears, Potter." Lucius said from above him, sending another shudder of pain as he kicked his foot into the center of Harry's stomach. He cried out, coughing up blood this time as he did. The pain, it reminded him too much of the pain in his past. It hurt, just like it had a long time ago.
"I fear I will never grow tired of them," he said connecting his foot again to Harry's stomach sending a jolt through him like electric shocks. Harry felt the dark slip over him, and he was in a world where he felt nothing.
When he came to, Malfoy was above him, between his legs, pushing inside him and burning a fire through the core of him. He cried out as another thrust sent pain to eat away at his insides. The burning was unbearable. Nothing Severus had ever done made it feel this way. He was being violently taken on a stone floor. He pushed the heels of his feet into the floor as Malfoy pushed into him once more. And then, he was drifting into the darkness, feeling nothing.
Severus and Dumbledore stood outside of the large estate that Malfoy's had resided in for centuries. Warrant in hand, the ministry had made it almost too easy to receive it; however it had taken two days to get. Severus was positively foaming at the mouth with his anger.
"When you get to Harry, be sure to apparate from there Severus," Dumbledore said as they followed the path to the front door. "I will deal with Lucius."
Severus said nothing. For he knew if he did, the man would not hear it. His only concern was getting the boy and getting him to safety. Nothing had plagued him so horribly. The idea that the sole cause of this was him did not help his masochistic thoughts the past two days. He was entirely to blame. If he had been truthful, he would have told Harry that he did feel something for him; while he was not sure if it was love, it certainly was more than he had ever felt for anyone.
When they knocked on the door, it was Lucius Malfoy himself who answered it. The moment he saw the two, he acted with a smile ever present on his face. Severus had to do anything he could to keep from lunging at the man and drinking the life from him.
"What brings me the honor of your visit?" White, pearl-like teeth flashed Severus a gleaming smile.
"We have a warrant, Lucius. I suggest you move out of the way."
"What good is a piece of paper to me?" Lucius said evenly.
"You will move," Severus said the anger beginning almost completely tightening his throat. He, however, kept an even face towards his enemy.
"And if I do not?" Lucius said his eyes on Severus.
This time Dumbledore cut in, "You will Lucius."
Before another word was spoken, they entered forcibly through the door. Several Death Eaters await them inside, and the curses begun.
**Presently**
Harry looked at Severus with disbelief. He could not believe that Severus would kill Lucius Malfoy and risk his place with Voldemort.
"How?" he finally asked.
"When we arrived at the manor, Lucius Malfoy had readied an ambush. However, we had aurors with us, and I was able to locate you and safely bring you here. However, Lucius posed an obstacle, and thus, I had no choice."
"What about Voldemort? What about you being a spy?" Harry asked quickly.
"If I go to the Dark Lord, I am sure that he will cast the killing curse," Severus said with an unwavering gaze.
"Don't!" Harry said firmly.
"Dumbledore has forbidden it as well Potter," Severus said calmly. "For now, we will remain away from Hogwarts."
"What about school?" Harry said thinking not of school, but of his friends.
"I am not sure that you truly understand Potter." Severus gazed at him with a conflicted look. "Since Lucius Malfoy kidnapped you and ambushed us with Death Eaters, it has begun the war. The Dark Lord will take no time in searching us out to have us killed. It has begun…"
Harry watched him carefully and before he knew it, his strength was giving out. He became enveloped into darkness.
Voices, he could hear them like they were far off in the distance. He groaned at the pain that fled into his senses. A cold glass lip was put to his mouth, and he drank down the substance without hesitation. The cool liquid tasted of berries, ripe and sweet. He felt a warming sensation and soon his pain was ebbing away. He opened his eyes, squinting when the light hurt them.
Dumbledore was standing above him, concern and worry aging his features. Every wrinkle, every age mark seemed to stand out on high alarm. When he saw that Harry was finally awake, the signature smile graced the old man's lips.
"I am relieved to see you awake," Dumbledore said with a sincere gentleness. "You had us greatly worried, Harry."
Harry turned to see several of the Order of the Phoenix members crowding around him. He was in a place he could not place a finger on. He did not know the room he now lied in.
"Where am I?" he said as he slowly sat up.
"A hideout, if you will, that you will be residing in with me for the duration of this war," Severus said cutting through the crowd to come to Harry's side. Relief snuck through him at the sight of the man. He had been slightly fearful that he would not be there, and he would be somewhere else, facing a death. Of course, he was sure Severus would not do so since it would put his life in danger.
"Will everyone be staying here?" Harry said as he looked around at the familiar faces. Mister and Mrs. Weasley stood on his right, Moody towards the center, and both Remus and Sirius nearest him. He smiled at his godfather, who looked every bit as worried as Dumbledore. He was wiping at his eyes, trying to hide the tears he had shed. It left Harry feeling warm inside knowing that no longer would Sirius' opposition to his bond pose a problem. Now, it was all about getting through this war with Voldemort and his Death Eaters.
"I am afraid not," Dumbledore said calmly. "We have much to do and many others to rally. It is vital that you and Severus stay together. If the bond were to be severed, all our hopes would be lost. You two are to remain hidden at this time, but we will come for you when all the preparations have been made. The minister has already begun his search for most of the Death Eaters involved in the ambush yesterday. There is no need to worry."
Harry simply nodded. With the amount that he was trying to take in, he found that words evaded him. He felt his stomach turn each time he thought back on the horrible things that had happened in only a mere three days. While he wished it was not Severus to do it, he was certainly glad to be rid of Lucius Malfoy. It was a retribution he felt he deserved.
Sirius was now at his side, holding tightly to Harry's hand. "I thought I had lost you."
His voice cracked as he looked upon Harry with saddened eyes. He pressed Harry's hand to his face.
"It's so good to see that you are okay," he said again with a crack tainting his words.
"I know," Harry said gently. "I was scared too."
The room was quiet and finally, Mrs. Weasley was at his side giving him a huge hug and sobbing into his shoulder. "You are such a strong boy, Harry."
Harry patted the woman's back with a small laugh. The woman was always in some sort of hysterics, and he caught a glimpse of a laugh hanging on Mister Weasley's mouth. Finally, the last of them filed out. Remus had given Harry a reassuring hug, promising to visit as soon as he could. Then, it was only Dumbledore and Severus that remained.
Dumbledore gave Harry's hand a quick squeeze and stood. "It is time I departed. I expect you understand that it is excessively important that you and Severus remain indoors. I will send word as soon as possible." With that, Dumbledore was gone and it was only Severus that stood silently above Harry.
Harry let out an exasperated sigh and turned away. "How was Malfoy killed?"
Severus did not answer for quite some time, but finally defeated, he sat next to Harry.
"While Dumbledore and the aurors fought in the entry way, I snuck my way down using my senses to locate you…."
**Flashback**
"He was a tasty treat," Lucius said as he stood behind Severus, eyeing him with a smirk. "I could tell he had already had a man."
Severus rounded on him, wand pointed. His body trembled beneath his anger. "I would suggest you run."
"Oh but that would mean I would miss all the fun," Lucius said coolly as he took a step forward. "I had never known you to be into little boys especially ones as exquisite as Potter."
"I have warned you Lucius. You interfere directly to my plans discussed with the Dark Lord. It will be on your head, but not mine." Severus said, still feeling the wrath coursing through him. It took every power not to throw the man into a wall and suck the life from him.
"Oh but what you were not aware of is that the Dark Lord has seen through your treachery," Lucius said with a small smirk. "He was very much saddened to find that his right hand Death Eater a vampire and bonded with a certain Boy-Who-Lived."
Severus was speechless and it took everything not to in that moment lunge at the other.
"The Dark Lord has started the war, and you and your precious boy will be the first to die," Lucius said as drew his wand. Before the man could though, Severus had rid him of it and ran forward at a lightning speed. The man was between his hand and the wall, pressed almost impossibly there. He could feel the breath leave him; Before Lucius could recover from the pure speed of the other, Severus put his face to the Lucius'.
"You will die for your crimes against what is mine," Severus said as he broke the man's neck within his hand. He let out a snarl and let the lifeless body fall to the floor. He quickly turned on his heels, sparing no time to get to Harry and get him to safety.
When he found Harry, he felt his belly roll in rage. Harry was lying on the floor, his clothes torn from him, and his body bloodied from head to toe. The boy looked unconscious, and he spent no time picking him up and apparating them from room. He was quivering when he gingerly put Harry down on the bed in the infirmary. His mind was wrapped in circles and his heart squeezed sharply, leaving him breathless. If Harry had been killed, even without the bond, he would have died. His heart would have stopped, much like it wanted to now at the mere sight of the boy beaten.
When those eyes turned on him, he regained his composure as quickly as he could to ensure that Harry knew where they were…
**Presently**
"But Lucius had followed me and expressed that the Dark Lord had already known of my treachery and had ordered the kidnapping and ambush. However, why Lucius did not kill you right away as expressed by the Dark Lord, I am not sure." Severus said evenly. "I was forced to use the killing curse on him as not to be beaten to it."
Harry watched the man's eyes seem to glaze over at the last bit and something told him that Severus was not telling him the entire truth, but at the moment, he was sure that it was for the best. He nodded his head and let a smile touch his lips.
"I would have enjoyed watching that," he said knowing that death was never easy to see, but after what had happened to him by that very man, he would not have mind seeing it.
"As I am sure you would have," Severus repeated a smile touching his lips too. Harry watched the smile like a mythical creature, or rather rare artifact since it seemed most mythical creatures did exist. His heart dropped in his chest when he realized how this had all begun.
"This was all because of me," Harry said turning his eyes away.
"I must admit the blame this time Harry. I was not strong enough against the Dark Lord, and I caused you to run. I should have been forthright with you in the beginning, and for that I am sorry. It is true that I believe myself incapable of loving, however, I feel a great deal for you. I do not know whether this will ease your mind, but I will do my best to honor the courage you have shown me." Severus said pressing a hand to Harry's. Harry felt the tears of the fear he had rumble up from his stomach and to his throat. He squeezed the man's hand and smiled.
"A hope is enough," Harry said through the soft breaths of air he had to drawn in to calm himself. Severus was leaning toward him, pressing a savage kiss to him that took every breath he had drawn in. He was pushed to the bed as the man climbed over him, driving his tongue deep into Harry's mouth and claiming him. Harry arched into the man and grabbed the robes he wore to keep himself from believing this a dream.
Severus removed his lips from Harry's and slid them down to the junction of his neck and collarbone. He penetrated Harry's skin, and Harry cried out as a pleasure and pain mixture washed over him. The feeling satisfied his own hunger deep inside as it sent him spiraling out of control. He wanted Severus. He wanted him to claim him, but images of Lucius and Vernon flashed through his mind. He pushed Severus away.
He curled within himself. "I'm dirty!"
Harry was defiled by a man that was not Severus. Harry had been ripped and torn by said person and his heart could not take seeing Severus look at him the way people often did when he had disappointed them. Before he could give it another thought, he was wrapped in the warmth of Severus' arms. He wanted to pull away, but the man was entirely too strong for him to do so.
"You are not," Severus said next to his ear. "You survived the brutality that Lucius forced on you, that the world forced on you, much as I did."
Harry felt tears threatening his eyelids. He would not cry. He had cried enough for a year's worth of crying. He would not cry. But the warmth was almost too much for Harry to ignore. The man whom he had been afraid would never care, never even allowed to grow attached to, was now holding him and comforting his fears away.
"You are strong and enduring," Severus said in an entirely too gentle voice. It made Harry cry, but in relief that the man would be there for him when he thought he had lost his ability to get close to Severus.
Severus pulled away, but only enough to lay another impassioned kiss on Harry. Harry could not remember what he had been crying about as the kiss threatened to erase his mind of every thought he had in it. He was pressed firmly against the man and the heat between them danced. He could feel Severus' arousal pressing hard against him. If he needed anything right in that moment, it was for Severus to take him and reclaim his foreign body.
Severus took no time divesting him of his clothes. He felt the man's lips press heated kisses to the exposed flesh. His own arousal began to grow through him like a wild fire. He groaned as Severus spread his legs, pressing fingers to his entrance and preparing him with a lubrication spell. He felt the man's fingers penetrate him and begin to spread him from the inside. He let out a gasp as another finger was added. Soon, Harry's body was writhing beneath the other wanting more than the fingers to be enraging his insides.
"I need you," Harry said through clenched teeth and eyes. He felt the vampire hover over him, sending chills to run the length of his body. In a moment, the man was pressing inside him, claiming him with a gentleness that surprised Harry. The soft, shallow thrusts were almost his undoing as the man took his time to fully occupy Harry's body.
Harry's fingers drove into the skin on the back of Severus as he was taken almost too sweetly into oblivion. Their mingled erratic breathing was the only sound that encompassed the room as they drove towards their passion. Harry could not think and only feel as every bit of skin felt as if it were on fire. Severus was moving inside him faster as they reach towards their end. Harry opened his eyes to catch a glimpse of the man and was sent arching in his orgasm at the mere sight of it. Severus was completely raw with passion, beads of sweat threatening to fall from his face, and contorted features in the pleasure. Harry had never really looked at the man before and certainly did not expect the expression to play out so easily on the man's face.
When they both crumbled into ecstasy, they laid side by side breathing unevenly and harshly. Harry was the first to look at the other, taking precaution not to alarm Severus with his interest. The man looked completely sated. His hair was splayed out beneath his head like a halo and his skin glimmered with the excursions of the activity. He looked utterly breathtaking and it took all of Harry not to crawl over the man and press kisses to each patch of flesh. He was still trying to regain what little modesty he had hidden away at his own starkness.
Finally, when their breathing had calmed, Harry snuck closer to the man and was surprised when Severus pulled him in with one long, graceful arm and held Harry to him.
"Best to get some rest, Harry." Severus said through heavy lids. Harry smile at the man and pressed one of his right hand to the man's chest.
"You don't have to say it back, but I just wanted to say it again," Harry said quickly. "I love you."
They lay there quietly and just as Harry was about to sneak into his own sleep, he heard the small whisper of his professor.
"And I you, Harry."
