2. Hedwig

3. Summer Rain

Notes: Sequel to Love Bite. Just a random thing, but I hope you appreciate it. The pairing here is Harry/Draco, but this focuses more on the dynamics between Harry and Severus. It just worked out that way. Feel free to eyeball the errors and tell me about them. Thanks. I hope everyone enjoys this piece. Part 3: Feeding

Summary: Harry needs something from Severus.

The Favour

“You didn’t say the magic word, Harry.”

“Severus, I’m really not in the mood to grovel, all right? I haven’t fed in a week.”

“Draco’s system is still adjusting to the change, Harry. It takes mates longer to adapt to such a shift, particularly submissive ones.”

“So you’ve said. It doesn’t make this easier.”

“I take it Miss Granger hasn’t stopped questioning you since she found out?”

“She threatened bodily harm to Draco if he hurt me. “

“Did you not explain that he’s your mate, and thus incapable of such a thing?”

“She seemed to think the fang marks on my neck belied that fact. I nearly sent a plea with Hedwig to beg you to explain it to her. She seems to think becoming a vampire has completely changed my personality.”

“You haven’t spent much time with the Gryffindors lately. But you are still you. Unfortunately for me.”

“Grouse all you want, but I know that you actually care for me. It was you who awakened me and helped lead me to Draco.”

“Purely in interests of self-preservation, Mr. Potter. The magical world would’ve burnt me to a crisp had I allowed the ending of the world’s saviour.”

“So you say. Why is it you cannot admit you actually possess a heart under that cold exterior?”

“It suits my purpose to have individuals believe otherwise. You know this.”

“May I have the potion now, O Ruthless One?”

“Not if you insist on behaving foolishly.”

“I was teasing, Severus. Please?”

“Fine, you may have the Simu-Blood potion.”

“Thank you. I was beginning to think you were trying to starve me out of existence.”

“I’d never do that to Draco.”

“It’s rather clear who your favourite is. I’m hurt.”

“Take my leather cloak, foolish boy. I can’t believe you flew here during a summer rain.”

“Hunger addled my brain, Professor.”

“Are you certain it was hunger and that your brain isn’t addled naturally?”
