Alecto shifted around in bed, she felt so warm under the covers and couldn't bare to get up, just as she gained full conciousness she felt an arm which was firmly wrapped around her waist, not knowing who's it was at the early moment she turned around and was met by a sleeping professor Snape.
She had then remembered what happened, they kissed, he invited her for tea, and so the night carried on and they were asleep next to eachother right now. She couldn't help but smile, she was in Professor Snape's arms, in his bed, in his chambers.
She looked at his features, his closed eyes, hooked nose, perfect lips and jet black hair falling lightly over his face and the white pillows.

She gently stroked her thumb over his cheek, feeling his soft skin. Snape let out a soft grumble and his black eyes opened sleepily.
Meeting the green eyes a soft smile played on his lips, "Miss Black..."
Alecto couldn't help but giggle softly, "Morning Professor–"
Snape's lips gently captured hers and pulled away quickly, "Call me by my first name, Miss Black, Severus." He smirked softly at the girl.
Alecto smiled at him, "Alright, only if you'd call me Alecto."
Severus nodded and smiled softly at her, "Very well, Alecto, but only when it is just us, no one else can know."

"Yes, yes I know. What's for breakfast?"
"Breakfast?"
"Yeah, what's for breakfast this morning?" Alecto smiled at Snape and laughed softly as he leaned over her slowly, "I think we know what's for breakfast this morning–" he growled softly before kissing her gently.

Later that day Alecto was told by Harry that Hagrid lost his case with Buckbeak and the Hipogriff was bound to be executed at night fall.
She felt sorry for Hagrid, he didn't deserve this, and that Malfoy boy will of course have the pleasure of getting what he wants.
As dusk was approaching Alecto made her way outside the castle since she knew that the trio went to pay Hagrid a visit and she wanted to be there for them, as she arrived outside she saw Dumbledore and the rest of the company of people that were supposed to execute Buckbeak down at Hagrid's little house, and she could hear Ron, Harry and Hermione, mostly Ron, nearby, as he was calling out 'scabbers' or something like that. Alecto thought Scabbers had been eaten.

Alecto then saw Scabbers the rat appear out of nowhere and scatter away in the grass with Hermione's ginger cat chasing after him, Ron then appeared, pulling the Invisibility cloak off him and running after his rat.

Then Harry and Hermione appeared from underneath the cloak and rushed after Ron, Alecto following after them.

Before they could even catch their breath, they
heard the soft pounding of gigantic paws… Something was bounding toward them, quiet as a
shadow — an enormous, pale-eyed, jet-black dog.
Harry reached for his wand, but too late — the dog had made an enormous leap and the front paws hit him on the chest; he keeled over backward in a whirl of hair; he felt its hot breath, saw inch-long teeth —
But the force of its leap had carried it too far; it rolled off him. Dazed, feeling as though his ribs were broken, Harry tried to stand up; he could hear it growling as it skidded around for a new attack.
Ron was on his feet. As the dog sprang back toward them he pushed Harry aside; the dog’s jaws fastened instead around Ron’s outstretched arm. Harry lunged forward, he seized a handful of the brute’s hair, but it was dragging Ron away as easily as though he were a rag doll — "No!" Alecto cried out in shock then, out of nowhere, something hit her so hard across the face she was knocked off her feet and went completely unconscious.

She lay there, unconscious for a while till she was woken by a soft deep voice, "Alecto." It was Severus, Alecto opened her eyes slowly, a clear bruise now visible on the side of her temple, he helped her sit up slowly, "Go back to the castle." He muttered softly, "I'll see you in a bit." He said before disappearing inside the hole under the Whomping Willow.
Alecto frowned deeply and got up, was she going to go back to the castle?
I think we all know the answer.
