Severus Snape x Reader • he can't keep us apart

Chapter 22

We spend hours talking about everything after that, she told me all about what it was like in Azkaban earning a few tears from me, that place really did sound dreadful. I told her everything about my life, about what I had gone through when she left and how I grew up from there. We also started going through a plan to defeat Voldemort which made her uncomfortable judging from her tone as she spoke "Listen, theres one more thing I need you to do for the plan" I said knowing that she would not like what I was about to say, she tilted her head at me slightly instructing me to go on "I need you to arrange a meeting with me and Voldemort." She started saying something but I continued before she could shaking my head "I want to become a death eater, for this plan to work he needs to think that we are both on his side. Besides once he finds out IM his daughter he will force me to anyway, so I might as well do it now then be forced later" I said reciting her words from earlier. She looked as though she wanted to protest but clearly decided against it as she sighed and nodded slowly. "Thank you" I said smiling at her earning a sad one back, she was definitely not happy about this but I had to do it.

Once it got late and I knew that everyone at Hogwarts would be in bed by now she apparated me to Hogsmeade. She took a quick glance around to make sure that no one was watching and then pulled me into a tight hug "write me darling okay?" She whispered into my ear before letting me go again "I will" I smiled hugging her back "I'll you soon!" "See you soon" I said quietly. "Mother.. I really missed you." I said quietly catching her before she Apparated. "i missed you too my little devil" she whispered, smiling genuinely. "now go before anyone sees you" she shot me a wink and apparated away.

As I was walking back up to the castle my mind started wandering to everything, how I was going to have to become a death eater in the next couple days and be forced to do unforgivable things to people. The thought made me shudder, as I moved onto the next thing in my head not wanting to worry myself to much about Voldemort. I started thinking about Bellatrix and how she was actually a very caring person when she didn't show her deranged side, and I couldn't help but smile at what she had called me earlier "her little devil, just like when I was a child" I said to myself quietly giggling slightly as I entered the castle.

Without even thinking I walked straight to the potions classroom not forgetting Severus' scream as I jumped out the window and that I probably scared him half to death. Getting to the door I knocked loudly and almost immediately after I knocked, the door swung open revealing a frustrated and scared looking Snape, his eyes were red and puffy and his hair was nest-like "Sev wha-" before I could finish my sentence he crabbed me by my collar and threw me into the classroom making me crash into a desk, holding my now injured wrist I stared up at Severus seeing him slam the door shut behind us and marching over to me. Once again he grabbed my collar and pushed me up against the wall earning a grunt from me as I hit the hard concrete with my head. "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?" He screamed at me making me shutter "I-" "I WAS WORRIED SICK! FOR ALL I KNEW YOU COUL'VE BEEN DEAD" he screamed again interrupted me "Sev- i- I'm so sorry." "Right your sorry, maybe you should think about that the next time you jump out the BLOODY WINDOW and go to the MINISTRY WITH ALL THOSE DEATH EATERS" "Severus I'm sorry but I couldn't stay with Umbridge she was torturing me!" I said back my voice raising more with every word "EVERYONE ELSE ARRIVED HOURS AGO WHERE WERE YOU?" "I- I was just doing something alright!" I answered annoyed pushing him off of me. He put his hand on the wall that I had just moved away from taking a deep breath to calm himself before turning around and walking toward me "and just what. Where you 'doing' if I may ASK." "YOU MAY NOT ASK" I screamed at him not even thinking about the tone that I was using "HOW DO YOU THINK IT FELT TO WAIT HERE FOR HOURS NOT KNOWING WHERE YOU WERE OR HOW YOU WERE, YOU COULD'VE BEEN DEAD YOU COULD'VE BEEN SUFFERING FROM THE CRUCIATUS CURSE THAT LETS NOT FORGET YOU DIDNT EVEN REACT TO!" He screamed again. I stayed quiet so he continued "I WAS WORRIED SICK THINKING THAT THE ONLY PERSON I CARE FOR IS DEAD, WHEN FINALLY THE KIDS THAT LEFT TO THE SAME PLACE YOU DID ARRIVED BACK HERE WITH DUMBLEDORE BUT OF COURSE WITHOUT YOU" tears started pricking at my eyes but that didn't stop him as he came closer and closer to me "I HAD TO HEAR FROM THAT IMBECILE POTTER THAT YOU WERE AT THE MINISTRY WITH THEM FIGHTING AGAINST THE DARK LORD AND HIS BLOODY DEATH EATERS! I HAD TO HEAR FROM HIM THAT HE SAW YOU GET TAKEN BY BELLATRIX LESTRANGE! OBLIVIOUS TO WHOM I WAS SPEAKING TO I BELIEVED HIM, BUT HOW STUPID OF ME TO DO SUCH A THING WHEN OBVIOUSLY IT WAS ALL JUST A JOKE TO HIM TO LIE TO ME LIKE THAT"

finally he stopped screaming and turned around walking back to the wall breathing heavily, tears were now streaming down my face "He wasn't lying.." I whispered making him turn around to me "what?" Taking a deep breath in to stop me from sobbing I continued " I was with Bellatrix, she apparated me back to her manor" Snape raised his eyes at me in an angry manner "Don't. Lie. To me!" he spat walking back towards me "IM NOT LYING" I yelled getting frustrated "I KNOW BELLATRIX AND SHE IS NOT ONE TO LET SOMEONE GO FREE ALIVE OR UNHARMED WHY WOULD SHE DO SUCH A THING FOR YOU?" "BECAUSE IM HER DAUGHTER!" He fell silent and stepped back from me furrowing his eyebrows "What?" He finally snapped and I could swear that there was a hint of panic in his voice now, "IM HER DAUGHTER! MY NAME IS NOT SKYE FORBES ITS SKYE RIDDLE" I carried on screaming getting more and more upset with each sentence I managed to form. "Riddle?" Was all Snape Managed to get out, as his voice got really low and quiet "yes riddle. I'm the daughter of Voldemort and Bellatrix" Severus looked as though he was about to pass out "I- No. your lying their daughter is known to be dead." "Come on Severus" i took a deep breath out of frustration "look at me! I look just like her don't deny it" he gave me a quick glance clearly not wanting to admit it to himself which gave me the need to continue "Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy took me in and rumored that I was dead so the death eaters would quit their search for me. I grew up with them from there.."
"why didn't you tell me." He said finally, a look of disbelief on his face making me want to break "I never told anyone, after Voldemort was 'defeated' and Bellatrix was thrown into Azkaban I was left alone, tortured by anyone who found out my last name; either looking for information on Voldemort or just because they were scared of me even though I was just a child. That's why I gave no reaction to being tortured, I grew so used to it that I learned not to give people the satisfaction for as long as possible. Anyway like i said, after hearing what had happened Narcissa Malfoy took me in." Severus didn't say anything, he just stared at me with glossy eyes "I know its a lo-" I started but got interrupted as Severus' lips smashed onto mine making me gasp before melting into his touch. He cupped my cheek pulling me closer heating up the kiss, After what felt like forever we both broke apart for air "I'm so sorry" he whispered placing his forehead on mine "it's ok it's not your fault" I chuckled a tear sliding down my cheek. He wiped it away with his thumb before continuing "I know but no one should go through something like that. Especially you" he sounded so caring and sweet as if he hadn't just been screaming at me a couple minutes ago.
I pecked his lips softly making him chuckle, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't of worried you like that!" I said looking down at the floor ashamed, Severus grabbed a hold of my chin with his thumb making me look back up at him "I'm sorry to, I shouldn't of yelled, I- I was just scared skye! I love you and if something every happened to you I-" "you love me?!" I asked shocked interrupting him "oh no I-" I grabbed his face and pulled him back into a long and passionate kiss interrupting him once again.

He groaned against my lips making me smirk against his, we both broke away for air once again gazing into each other's eyes "I love you to" I whispered breaking the silence, he just smiled at me looking flustered which made my heart jump. "And I'm sorry again for making you feel that way" I added
"but I'm sure I can make it up to you."
