Severus watched over his charges as they slept in Draco’s large bed. When the Fates had summoned him early that Thursday morning he knew that the sententia partis had been completed.
He had found them in the courtyard fast asleep for sheer exhaustion, Brocc dutifully guarding the pair.
He had used magic to dress and carry the two to the chambers where they now slept. He had checked all their vital signs and they were fine. When they woke they would be thirsty and hungry but nothing serious.
It was not until late that afternoon did they begin to stir from their slumber. Severus smiled as they both sought the other as they woke. He had worried his godson would be matched with some type of ninny, he still held a grudge with the Fates, but all those fears had washed away as he watched Hermione care for Draco.
Draco’s silvery eyes opened and he groaned as he tried to move his stiff muscles. He felt like he run a marathon and then crashed into a concrete wall. He closed his eyes again, a wave of nausea hitting him as all of Hermione’s memories came into focus.
From her earliest memories of her loving family and cozy home, to her excitement of leaning she was a witch to all the anxiety and stress she suffered while working with Harry to end Voldemort.
Draco was ready to go on the warpath as he watched her lose her virginity to that clumsy Weasel. Then that bastard MacLaggan making her cry, calling her frigid, after he cheated on Hermione with that slut Daphne Greengrass.
He looked over at his mate, his eyes adjusting to the light, thinking about how fierce and beautiful she was. Watching her work for the Order, her brilliant mind protecting so many.
She was perfect, and he did not deserve her.
Draco leaned over and kissed her cheek softly. She moaned and rolled close to him but he noticed how tense all her muscles were.
“Draco,” the voice of his godfather startled him.
“Uncle?”
“How are you?” Severus asked
“I am tired and sore but fine otherwise. I had no idea how heroic and intelligence she really is until now. I am in awe of her.”
“I am glad you have found someone worthy of you.” His uncle said.
“I don’t think I am worthy of her Uncle, and when she wakes she will have to face the monster I was.”
“You were never a monster Draco, you were a child given the task of titans. You did what you had to. Now no more of this, the Fates have summoned you, Brocc is waiting outside to carry you over. ”
“What of Hermione?” he asked watching her as he rose from the bed.
“The elves and I will care for her until you return. Get dressed and get moving, you do not want to keep those three hags waiting.”
Reluctantly, Draco rose and slipped on his Gancanagh robes and hopped onto the waiting back of Brocc from the balcony.

By time Hermione woke the sun was dipping below the horizon. She opened her eyes and the first thing she realized was she was not in Draco;s chambers.
The second thing was how ill she felt, and the memories hit her. Then she started to cry.
Severus and Siofra rushed into her bedchamber when they heard her sob.
“Miss Granger, are you alright?” Severus asked as he sat beside her, checking her pulse and looking to see any injuries.
“Oh Professor,” she hiccupped, “how did he survive all that? How is his still so kind, so loving after suffering so much.”
Hermione had lived through a relatively calm childhood, even if it did lack affection. It was his later years, through Hogwarts, where he was tested again and again.
Draco had to watch as the Dark Lord crucioed his father. Hermione felt his anger and despair. He was tortured, beaten and hunted down by Death Eaters after he switched sides.
Then when his killed his aunt, Bellatric LeStrange in a battle in Hogsmead. Hermione felt the confusing emotions of sadness, disgust, and triumph that coursed through his veins as he stood over the body of the woman, who should have loved him, but had willingly tortured him.
Then she had felt his longing for her, the love that filled him as he thought of her. Hermione felt Draco’s protectiveness, his want to be a good person, his hope for their future.
Severus had never been good with emotional women, but he put am arm around her shoulders to try to comfort her.
“He is a strong young wizard Miss. Granger. He was given many trials but he has come through much wiser, and ready to start anew with his mate.”
“What can I do for him?” she asked her tears calming
“Complete the tasks and give him the life he has longed for and deserved”
Hermione was going to do just that.
~~
Draco returned from the Fates and started pacing around his room. Severus had told him Hermione was bathing and resting. The rite had taken a harsher toll on her because she was not of Gancanagh blood.
He had paced around for what seemed like hours, stripping off his robe and stepping into his silk sleep pants.
The Fates had been as vague an Oracle when he asked of his future with Hermione. They gave no indication as to how she would react after the mind meld, only that they greatly approved of her thus far.
‘Meddling wenches’ he cursed the Fates as he flopped on his bed, his stomach coiled in worry.
Meanwhile Hermione placed her hands on the cool doors. On the other side she felt her mates anxiety and stress. She had sensed him pacing around like a caged animal for the past hour or so while she readied herself.
He was afraid that she would not want him after sharing his life.
He was very wrong indeed.
She opened the door and slid in closing it softly behind her.
She wandered into the bedchamber and saw him lying there staring out the balcony window. He head suddenly snapped in her direction and he took a sharp intake of breath
She looked like his vision that seemed to have come years ago.
The peach silk of her nightdress clung to her curves in a way that made his mouth water and him envy the soft fabric.
She seemed to float across the room to the bed and came to is side, sitting next to his prone body. She reached out to him and Draco leaned up on his elbow seeking the affection Hermione offered.
“Why are you so afraid my darling?” she asked taking his face into her hands and kissing his eyelids.
“How can you want me, I have murdered, maimed and deceived. I am not worthy.”
“Don’t you ever say that again Draco. I have seen all you done, the remorse, the anger and the will to survive and keep your family safe. You are more than worthy of love Draco.”
“You deserve someone less tainted than I.”
“No my love, I was born to be yours.”
“Hermione…”
“And tonight, my heart, my mate, is the night we complete the final task.”
“Oh mo croí.” Was all he was able to say before Hermione's lips sealed over Draco’s.
