CHAPTER 49

The manor was silent, eerily silent. The manor was never so quiet. There would always be someone that would be talking or even yelling. The children would fight and run after each other. Even if it was silent, it never was so eerie.

Severus sat in the room he had been given. He was silent and solemn. He was leaning against the headboard of the bed and he had his legs in front of him. His hands on his knees.

This particular day was hard on Severus. He didn't like to be so alone on this day. He remembered it so clearly, but this day he felt like he was back there and he was underneath that man. Today was the exact date he had gotten raped.

He didn't know how much of a coincidence it was that he always got raped on this particular date. It was the end of the fifth full moon of the year, the seventh day.

The first time it had happened, he was thirteen. He was in the forest, looking at the plants. The alpha was someone he knew, his father's friend. He had held him down and had his way with him.

And then after that day, it kept on happening. Five times after that, it kept on happening. Two of those rapes happened on the exact date that he was for the first time forcefully taken. It made him bitter and it made him want to scream and cry. But he loved sex with his alpha, it made him feel things he never ever felt.

No one knew his exact story. Not before he met his alpha. Everyone thought he was close to getting raped, they didn't know that he was raped five times. Harry, Tom and Lucius knew though. Lucius and Tom always helped him through this day because he was out of his senses on this day.

He had gotten over it, he didn't think about it. But on this particular date, everything seemed come to him in one big wave. And this time his co-omegas and his alpha weren't there to love him and help him through today.

And it was all because of Gerry. Severus thought to himself.

Without thinking, Severus got out of bed. He picked up his wand, that he didn't use much. But Harry had gifted both Severus and Tom a wand to practice their magic. But Severus didn't use it much. He kept the wand in his cupboard though.

He walked over to the room he had stayed in for almost two decades. But now he had to move. He knew that Lucius was locked here and it made his heart ache. His co-omega was locked here, where he would have to watch as that brat and their alpha got it on.

"Alohomora." He said and the door slid open. He knew that his alpha would have used a spell to lock the door, but he most likely didn't use a strong one because he probably didn't have the forethought that one of his omegas might try to get in.

He opened the door slowly and then slowly entered. He closed the door behind him and glanced around the room, quickly catching sight of the golden cage, shaped like a bird cage but it was human size. He looked down and caught sight of Lucius hugging his knees and shivering.

"Lucius." He cried out, rushing towards the omega.

Lucius looked up at him and lunged forwards. Hands slipping out of the gaps in the bars, he grabbed Severus as the other slid down to sit beside the cage. Lucius had been worried sick for Severus because he knew what day it was. He was scared that Severus might do something he might regret later, but he had no way of checking up on him.

Harry never kept track of time, so he probably didn't know what Severus was going though. But Lucius knew and it made him feel terrible that he couldn't be there for him.

Tom was also locked in his cell. He was at least aloud to come out without someone with him at all times. Tom got out of the cell total of four to five times. Each time just for one hour. And he wasn't allowed to talk with Lucius, no one was allowed to enter the room without permission from Harry.
