After Draco revealed he had one of the Galleons she charmed, she had him immediately send a message to Bill.

"How do you know he's not in a dungeon or something?" Sirius asked.

Draco glanced at Sirius before answering, "He was only used to bring down the wards here. They wanted, no, He wanted Hermione to suffer."

Remus growled low in his chest. "Unbeknownst to him, because she's a child of a werewolf, she won't suffer."

Everyone whipped their heads in his direction.

"What?!" Hermione exclaimed.

Remus winced at the high octave her voice had taken.

"Being a child of a werewolf, you won't suffer from the pain during the change. You'll have complete control over your wolf. Most of the time anyway. There will be," he grimaced, "other times, where the wolf will try to take over."

Tonks chuckled at her husband's explanation. "He means, you'll be wolf-y when you have sex."

Draco snorted at his cousin, who sat in her chair looking smugly for embarrassing her husband.

Narcissa chuckled delicately when she noticed how smug her niece looked.

Sirius laughed outright at his cousin, shaking his head at his best friend.

Hermione, Antonin and Thorfinn froze in shock.

"Want to repeat that?" Hermione asked softly.

Tonks looked at her younger friend with a grin, "Do you need me to?"

Hermione shook her head, "No. Just checking."

Thorfinn chuckled softly before looking at Hermione, wagging his eyebrows, "Wanna wolf?"

Hermione couldn't help but laugh at the Viking of a wizard, she tilted her head in thought, "Isn't the saying, 'wanna fuck'?

Laughing boisterously, Thorfinn asked straight-faced, "Well, do ya?"

Hermione raked her eyes down from his head to the bulging muscles rippling in his shirt. Licking her lips, she replied, "Not at this moment, no."

Thorfinn laughed at her reaction, whereas, Remus and Sirius both growled loud enough to be heard by everyone.

"We're supposed to be coming up with a plan. Not eye fuck each other across tables." Sirius grumbled.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Sirius, honestly. No one is sleeping with each other."

"The word he used was 'fuck'." Antonin stated.

Hermione growled, "I know! Seriously, why is immaturity a thing with men?"

"Just because we have two heads, doesn't mean both are used properly." Draco told her matter-of-factly.

Narcissa hissed at her son's callousness. He shrugged in response.

All the other men chuckled at him, while Hermione just stared blankly.

"Exhibit A," she said pointing at Draco. "You're ridiculous."

He shrugged with a smile before his expression turned serious again.

"How exactly are we going to defeat him?" He asked everyone.

Thorfinn felt his wards ripple in warning before his front door was blasted off its hinges.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" He snarled as smoke filled his house.

All the men faced the doorway which led to the front where the door was blasted in, all standing in front of the women in protective stances. Hermione and Narcissa both stood in protective stances in front of Fleur, who wrapped her arms around her middle protectively.

A figure dressed in billowing black robes strode into the room. "Where is the dog?"

Sirius and Remus growled, Hermione gasped in shock.

"You'll have to be more specific. There are now-" Draco drawled before Hermione growled at him.

"Trust me, I already know exactly what happened." The figure snarked.

Sirius snarled at the cloaked figure, "What the fuck do you want, Snivellus?"

"Snape?" Hermione gasped, "No, he died. I saw him die!"

Snape sneered at them all, "Yes, girl. I did, for only a moment. I'm a Potions Master, I carry numerous antidotes for poison, for example, Nagini's venom was eradicated from my system with the antivenin I carried on my person."

"Answer the question, Snape." Sirius growled.

Snape glowered at the black haired wizard, "I had an inkling."

Hermione narrowed her eyes, "An inkling? Care to elaborate?"

Thorfinn and Antonin glared at the man that stood in the blasted doorway.

"Care to move into the room you almost destroyed?" Thorfinn drawled.

"Rowle, are you a wizard or not?" Snape said as he waved his wand and everything fixed itself.

Thorfinn growled before stalking across to the opposite side of the room, away from the unwanted visitor.

"What exactly are you here for?" Remus asked calmly.

"I've come with news." Snape drawled, blankly staring at Thorfinn, who was growling and muttering under his breath.

Hermione's brows drew up, "News? What kind of news?"

"News from Potter." Snape told everyone.

Hermione growled low, slowly advancing toward the man, "How do you have news from him? I made sure he was safe from everyone and everything."

Snape realized he made a mistake when tell her about Potter, he noticed her advancing, her eyes glowing amber. Slowly, he raised his hands in surrender, retreating step by step.

"Kotyonok, leave him be." Antonin whispered in her ear as he grabbed her arm, stopping her advance.

She growled softly before she registered his scent. As soon as his scent hit her nose, her wolf rolled over in her head and basked in it.

Hussy, she rolled her eyes. She looked at the man that got her attention and noticed his pupils flaring, eyes flickering with specks of amber. She then looked to Thorfinn, who was watching her from hooded eyes, filled with lust.

"Seriously, what is wrong with you?" she asked Thorfinn.

He grinned, "Not getting laid," he laughed, "Kidding. Slightly."

Shaking her head, she looked at Snape again, "Answer my question. How do you have news from Harry?"

"From him, himself. Well, from Fawkes." Eyebrows drew upwards before he could elaborate. "He sent a letter with his magical signature. Something only he could produce."

"He's safe?" Hermione asked the man.

Snape looked at the girl, whose eyes pleaded with him to answer truthfully.

"Yes."

"Thank Merlin." She sagged in relief.

Thorfinn sighed loudly before looking at Snape, "The letter? Then you can find somewhere to sit while we figure everything out."

Snape nodded, as he handed Hermione Harry's letter.

"Thank you." She told him as she gripped the letter, feeling it hum with Harry's magic. She looked at everyone in the room, smiling. "It's really from him."
