There was a sickening howl and crushing of bones as they lenghtened. Severus felt fear all over again as he remembered his encounter with the wolf all those years ago.
Lucius would never say it out loud but he was frightened. There before him stood Lupin in all his werewolf glory. Hairy and with very large claws and theeth. He not only feared for himself but all people in the room.
Draco stood there. He was to frightened to even breath. They could all die or worse become werewolves.
Harry slowly went over and knelt before the massive form to show that he submitted to the pack leader. Luckily Sirius had explained some time ago that Remus saw them that way.
„Harry, what are you doing? Come back over here. Not even I can control him.“ Albus said urgently.
„I don’t want to control him headmaster. I am a pack member and as this he wouldn’t hurt me. He threw me because he thought I would hurt Siri. Now in submitting to him I show that he is the leader.“
„Where did you learn this, Potter?“ Severus was still frightened but as the wolf seemed to be focused on Black and Potter he trusted himself to speak.
„Sirius told me about it after I asked him what we were to Remus, Professor. He said that Remus saw us as a pack. Moony is the leader, Siri is the second in command. I am the cupe. Ron is even in the pack. As something akin to a second cupe.“
While talking Harry crawled slowly towards Sirius. Moony made no move to stop him. He sat down beside Sirius and with Harrys help rolled him onto his back. Then he began to lick Siris face. Trying to get a reaction from the man. As he didn’t react he began butting his head against Sirius cheek. No reaction...
Then he looked around in confusion as he remembered something from Remus memories. The dark man over there knew potion. Something that would help his mate.
Suddenly the wolf sprang to action and stalked over to Severus who stood there pertrified with fear. Lucius didn’t move a muscle. He knew that they hadn’t done anything to provoke the wlf. So what did it want? It seemed to stare at Severus as if it wanted to say something. But what?
Severus didn’t even dare too breath. His wole world narrowed down to the animal before him As it walked slowly over to him and came to a halt directly in front of him he felt his vision at the corners go black.
'Do not faint. Not in front of this monster. Then he will kill you for sure'
'Why does he smell of fear? I didn’t do anything to him. Wait...I remember him from back in my hut. He was there. And then Remus was so angry at Padfood.'
Moony lay down on the ground and inched forward as not to fighten the man more. Only he could help Padfood.
Severus was relieved that the animal didn’t attack him but then he lay down and butted against his leg. It wanted something. His help...with Sirius.
Severus wasn’t a Gryffindor but a Slytherin to the core. Nonetheless he was couragous. And now he had to overcome his greatest fear. To face the trauma from his childhood. The werewolf.
But he knelt down beside the wolf and held out his hand hesitantly. He flinched a bit as the head from the creature came up. But then his hand was sniffed and then licked. All around there were sounds of relive. Even Potter seemed to be relieved. Then suddenly the wolf bit into his sleeve and dragged him oer to Sirius. That was it. It wanted Sirius to wake up. And somehow he had known that Severus could help.
Tentivly he reached out to touch Sirius face. There was a growl behind him. A warning ‚harm him and die‘. Sv reached into his pocket and withdrew a vial. He always carried different potions with him but it was luck that he had this one with him.
„Potter. Come over here and hold Black up. I will give him the potion and will see what I can do for his injuries.“
As he had admisterd the potion they turned Sirius onto his stomach. All cuts and even the bleeding after began to heal. They made sure he was comfortable before blanketing him with a blanket. But something wasn’t right because Moony wouldn’t stop growling.
„What did Wormtail do to him, Lucius?“ Moody asked.
„As we came into the room he just began to thrust into Black. There was semen all over him from before so. We cleaned him up a bit.“
„He can smell it and is uset about it.“ Just as Harry said it Moony took the cloak from Sirius and lay down on him. He began rubbing himself all over Sirius. Not in a sexual way but marking him as his again. To get the stench from the filthy human from his mate. He started licking his neck and then down his body. Moony wasn’t satisfied with that. He rolled Padfood over onto his stomach and rubbed up against him. He became asoused by the close proximity of his mate. But he wouldn’t do anything because then he wouldn’t be better as the damn bastard of a rat. So he just cuddled closer to him and went to sleep. Trusting those around him to hold watch.
