Red Moon

Chapter 5- Acceptance...

Warning- Slightly sexual

There was a bright light as the wolves turned back into their human counterparts. The once white wolf, now a brunette, looked up at the blonde man above her who was still staring at the sun. He must have sensed someone looking at him for he looked down at her. Grey eyes met brown eyes and within that one look, they tried to convey and understand how they felt. Something snapped between the two of them in that look. For a second later their lips were locked passionately around each other. Hermione wrapped her arms around Draco's back, her nails scarping against his skin as he balanced himself on his arms by her head.

            "Mine," Draco murmured in his head. Even when they were human, they could convey each other's thoughts to each other which came in handy especially when one of them was in danger.

            "Mine," he heard Hermione echo which made him smile against her lips.

            "NO!' they heard Ron scream mentally and physically at them. Draco groaned as he let go of Hermione's lips and snarled up at the raging red-head. Ron ran at them and threw Draco off of Hermione.

            "No! Ron!" Hermione screamed as Ron grabbed her dragging her up so she stood up. Her arms were going to have bruises easily.

            Draco growled and sprinted at Ron. He jumped half-way turning into his wolf form. They could change whenever they wanted, their emotions usually were the cause of this, but when the moon came, they had no choice. Sometimes this ability was nice when one was in danger but it brought fear to those who knew they were werewolves. Draco snarled, foam and slobber trickled down his mouth. He was extremely pissed and from what Hermione read about mates, he would probably end up killing Ron. All the wolves, save Luna and Pansy, rushed forward even the Weasley family who had come over from their early breakfast at the Burrow some couple feet away. Even though Hermione hated Ron for what he wanted of and from her, she couldn't watch her best friend die. Hermione wretched herself from Ron and placed herself in front of Ron. She could feel Draco's anger and surprise and sadness. She thought, He probably thinks I have chosen Ron instead of my own mate.

            "Calm down, Draco," she urged him, "Do not force me to put you down. Don't kill Ron though he may deserve it. I can't watch you kill my best friend!"

            "Then he should have listened to you about mates!" Draco snarled at her, "For you are mine."

            She whimpered slightly, both from his tone of anger and the secret promise that was held in those words. She turned around to look at Ron who was glaring at the black wolf that came up behind her. Draco's nose poked in between her thighs. She blushed and tried to push him away. Her mind began to fog with desire as he gently started to lick, "Ron?" her voice was dark and heavy due to Draco's attentions on the back of her thighs.

            Ron looked up at her, his blue eyes filled with hope, "What?"

            "Please, leave," she begged him, shoving Draco away when he finally stopped; "You can't have me, Ron. I am not your mate and if you force yourself on me, I will make sure that the Weasley line does not continue through you and I am sure Draco will rip you to piece afterwards," she threatened.

            Ron whimpered and slowly backed away and then he Apparated away. Mrs. Weasley came over quickly with fur robes for them all. They were used to each other being naked in front of each other after being stuck in a prison and were not given any clothing but it was their human side of not wanting to stared at. Fred and George exchanged grins and Harry looked like a he just lost a bet and he probably did before the twins Apparated away. Harry and Ginny grabbed each other's hands and Apparated away. Ginny made the gesture of 'Call-Me' before she followed her mate. Pansy was gone already and Luna Lovegood headed off to the Burrow to use the Floo to get back to her father's new house. Hermione sighed and looked at Draco who had changed back and was putting a black fur robe around him.
