The Bite Of A Wolf

Chapter 4

Third Person POV

Severus was in his private potion lab, making extra Wolfsbane.

'That boy just gets more like Lily everyday.' He thought to himself.

It's true. Lily would have forgiven Remus for biting her and that's what her son did. Lily would have accepted Remus as her mate and that's what Hadrian did.

A few tears rolled down the potion masters check. 'I miss you Lily. You would be so proud of him. I'm going to treat him better.' He sent the prayer up to the sky, hoping it would reach her.

Severus was startled from his thoughts when a pair of arms rapped around his torso.

He looked up and saw Hadrian. He had brought the man into his chest. 'So much like his mother.' A few more tears escaped his eyes.

A soft hand brushed them away. "What's wrong Severus?" Hadrian was worried. He had came to collect the potions and saw their maker in tears.

"Nothing Hadrian. Just thinking is all." He gave another small smile to the man holding him.

"Okay. I just came for the potions, then you'll never have to see me again. I know I was your least favorite student." He gave a small grin to the potion master.

"Yes. The potions." He stepped back and looked through his cabinets. He found Wolfsbane, but not the pain potions.

"Here. It seems I'm out of the pain potions. I'll brew some and bring them to you." He told the student.

"Okay. Bye then." He turned around and walked out of the door, unaware of the silently crying potions master.
