A/N: Oh sweet cruelty! Not too bad is it? I haven’t left you all hanging that much, have I? Am I still loved? Please let me know how I am doing and what you think of the story. I’m sorry to say, it will progress rather slowly but I’m hoping to get in her head a bit and in the head of the wolf as well. I know my chapters tend to be rather short, but I do try and keep them above 1000 words. Please note that Snape is OOC here! Please Rate and Review!
goldhorse- I hate when my reviews are eaten! Lol. Thanks for stopping in :)

Severus landed outside the borders of the wards on the burrow. He quickly passed the wards, grateful it was still set to allow his signature entrance. “Remus!” He yelled out while running for the door.
“No, no, no, no” he heard a rasping voice coming from the sitting room.
Pushing everything off the kitchen table, Severus laid Hermione down gently and touched her forehead. She was burning up. He looked her over again and noticed that her broken limbs had healed themselves, but in the wrong way. “Shit!” he yelled as he hit the table, then went to find the rasping voice.
He found Remus Lupin with his head in his hands “I didn’t tell her, she didn’t know, they took her”
“Remus” Severus said softly. His friend looked up.
“Severus? You shouldn’t be here, no one knows the truth. They will take you away.”
“Dear friend, I would not be here unless it was an emergency. What happened? What’s wrong?” he had to calm his friend so that someone could be called to take care of the girl.
“They took her… I never got to tell her and they took her. I felt the burning, the pain. Where is she?”
“Who, Remus?”
“Hermione”
Lupin watched as the color drained from his friends face. “Severus?”
“Remus, you need to call Poppy. NOW! Call someone you trust because I am not leaving here.”
“Are you…” he began
“Do it!” He yelled as the werewolf snarled at him. “Remus, I know where Hermione is, get Poppy. Be sure not to tell her who it is you need her for, just get her here.”
“Shit!” he ran to the floo.
Two minutes later, Poppy Pomfrey, former nurse of Hogwarts, came through the floo. Immediately upon her entrance, Severus petrified her. He stood before her while Remus kept her from falling.
“Poppy I am not here to harm you. You’ve known me longer than anyone. I will explain everything to you, but I need your help first.” He released the spell.
“Alright Severus” she replied.
“I was at the Dark Lords side when Hermione Granger was brought in.” Her eyes widened. “She is fading quickly. She was attacked by Greyback.” Poppy almost fell back as Lupin ran to the kitchen where Severus had come from. His wails permeated the house. “Poppy. She had many broken bones, but they healed quickly and not at the right angles. Tell me what potions I need to brew and I’ll get right on it.”
She nodded and headed to the kitchen where they watched Remus Lupin touching Hermione’s face, arms and hands.
“Remus, you need to move and let Poppy work. The Dark Lord thinks her to be dead. My heart rate spell did not pick anything up, but she is still there if only just barely.”
Remus backed into the kitchen wall and fell to the floor. “Friend, why are you so upset. I know you’ve known her for a while and she’s a friend of Harry’s but what has brought this on. What did you mean you didn’t tell her and you felt the burning?”
Severus’ friend looked up from the floor with pain in his eyes. “Hermione… is my daughter Severus. She carries the lycanthrope gene.”
Severus looked back at the girl on the table with wide eyes. “Why didn’t I see it before?”
“She carries the gene already. By Fenrir biting her, he has sealed her fate. She will become one. The full moon is in two nights which is why the burning was intense. Was she… did she look in pain?”
Severus put his hand on his friends shoulder. “Yes, I’m sorry.”
“Severus,” Poppy called “Here’s a list of potions I need. As quick a you can.” He grabbed the list and ran to the potions cupboard. “Remus, I’m not deaf and won’t pretend I didn’t hear what you just said, but you are going to have to help me. Can you do that? I can’t call anyone else in while she is in her condition, you know how they are and they will only get in the way.” He nodded and stood up.
The three former Hogwarts employees worked for hours on the girl in their care. Since her neck was still bleeding, Poppy cleaned and dressed that wound first, knowing that she couldn’t heal it fully. Next Remus helped her reset the badly healed bones and put splints on them. They would reset two at a time, taking a thirty minute break between them to make sure they didn’t traumatize her too much. Remus had to run to the sink a few times, green in the gills, but came back to finish helping.
Once the worst of the injuries were healed, they kept vigil by her side, talking to her, telling her stories, and reading to her. Her heart rate was still low and it was come and go a few times through the night.
On the 6th hour of vigil, Severus heard a small whimper. He looked at the girl lying broken on the table and watched tears fall down her unconscious face. He performed his heart rate charm again and saw she was getting stronger. She would wake soon and be in enough pain to knock her out again.
Severus got up from his place and woke up Poppy, pointing to Hermione. “She’s waking up. She’s getting stronger Poppy, but the pain may be too much to keep her conscious.” The older woman nodded understanding. She got a thoughtful look on her face.
“Wake Lupin” She told him.
“Remus” the werewolf jumped up as if burned.
“Sorry” he mumbled, then the whimper sounded again and Severus dashed to the table.
Hermione still had tears slowly cascading down her face. Her brows were knit together and her jaw was clenched tight.
“What can we do?” He asked helplessly.
“Go to her. I want to see something.” Remus walked to the table and his heart broke. His daughter, who didn’t know she was his daughter, lay broken in front of him. Now bearing the same curse that he himself held.
He collapsed into the chair beside her and put his head lightly on her chest, feeling the feverish temperature she would now always have.
At the touch, they heard a gasp and cry come from Hermione. Lupin quickly lifted his head and took her hand in his own. “Shhh, Hermione, its okay. We’re here for you. You won’t be hurt again. I’ve got you.” He kissed her forehead and watched her visibly relax.
He looked up at Pomfrey. “Pack” she said simply. “You didn’t turn her but you are biologically her father. Plus Greyback turned you, making you closer still.” He nodded mutely. “Severus, take her other hand.”
“I am no wolf.” he growled out.
“No, Severus, you’re not, but you are with Lupin.” He looked at her shocked. “Don’t worry, no one told me and no one else has any ideas. You said yourself we have known each other for a very long time. Anyway, this fact makes you family, essentially making you pack.”
He nodded dumbly and sat on the little witch’s other side, holding her hand in his. He watched as her body relaxed even more before bucking up.
“Hold her down!” the nurse yelled. She cast a body bind on Hermione to keep her from more injuries. As the two men held each of her hands, a glow surrounded them. They looked at the nurse for an answer, but she shrugged. “I’m not there I can’t feel it.”
“Calming…” Lupin said, looking at Severus who mutely nodded.
“She’s healing with your help.” They watched as she bucked again.
“I thought you bound her!” Lupin yelled.
“I did Remus.” The nurse replied.
“Okay you guys need to listen to me. Do as I say and do not doubt me. Understood?” They nodded quickly, trying to keep Hermione from moving again. “Kneel on the table on either side of her.” They complied. As soon as they were on the table, Poppy transfigured it into a King Size bed. “If she bucks again she’s likely to give herself a concussion. Okay, remove your shirts. They looked at her with quirked eyebrows, but listened as they promised. While they removed their shirts, Poppy removed Hermione’s, leaving her on the table in jeans and a bra.
Lupin and Severus both jumped off the bed. “Poppy!”
“Skin to skin boys.” She grinned, then turned serious. “I know there is no attraction of either of you to the witch otherwise I wouldn’t attempt this. She needs to heal as quickly as possible. The trauma of the injuries and the healing may be too much for her.” She turned to look at Lupin. “Remus, the full moon. I don’t think she will get a full months reprieve before she changes. She’s of age now, and the activated gene along with Greyback’s attack will push her over. She needs to heal before she changes or she will be lost.”
“Poppy I need you to tell the others. We need the portkey set to three people so I can go with her and hunt. Severus, you’ll need to come too.”
Severus nodded and waiting for Lupin’s lead. The werewolf climbed slowly onto the bed and lay beside Hermione, touching arms, she immediately bucked, skin glowing, a growl in her throat. “Shit” he mumbled before rolling on his side, putting one arm around her waist and locking his top leg with her left one. On the other side of the bed, Severus copied his friend, laying his arm across her abdomen and wrapping his top leg with her right.
The glow got brighter but she didn’t make any sudden movements. The men fell asleep quickly, sure that their little wolf would be safe between them.
