Severus Snape A Soul Undiminished

Chapter 17 - Whisper

Severus set Sirana down on her feet at the side of his bed. He placed his hands on the sides of her face, holding her gently to look down into her trusting face.

"Sirana," he said in low, even tones. "We have more than just today. I will be here tomorrow; I will be here as long as you need me here. As much as I want you, I want all of you, not just this. You need simply say 'wait', and I will wait for you."
Sirana heard his tender words and her heart melted. Her nervousness faded, and she realized that she wanted nothing more than to know the whole depth of this man. She suddenly felt that a lifetime would not be long enough.
She reached up and placed her hands on his, softly smiling. "I would not ask to wait for what I equally desire. By intention or not, I have felt you touch my mind. Touch it now and you will see the truth in my mind and my body."
Severus was surprised that she had known he had entered her mind, but he willingly obeyed and entered now to find fire again, but instead of pain, the flames were those of passion, desire, and...love? All of it engulfed him, and he could feel himself being willingly consumed. He heard her gasp as he met

her inferno with his own. When he emerged from her mind, he lowered his head again to kiss her, knowing there were no more words needed.
Severus slid his hands down her silky shoulders, this time to completely rid her of her outer robe, letting it fall to her feet. He started to loosen the ties on her gown, but she gently brushed his hands aside to reach up and remove his outer jacket in turn, unbuttoning his multitude of buttons. She felt his broad chest through his white shirt and felt the urgent need to touch his skin. She had never seen an ascot before in person and fumbled a bit with it. She saw his mouth turn up in smile, and he replaced her hands with his to remove it in a flourish. She started to reach for the buttons of his shirt, but since it was his turn, he went back for her gown. His hands worked quickly to loosen her ties, and let her gown fall to join her robe on the floor at her feet. She saw the look of lustful appreciation in his eyes and might have blushed if she were to actually have any coherent thoughts left in her. She reached up to the top of the row of the numerous buttons on his shirt, working as quickly as she could manage, wishing to herself that there was a hidden zipper.
They were both breathing heavily with anticipation, and as if he could no longer wait, Severus pulled his shirt out of his trousers and started to quickly work on the buttons from the bottom up. At the last one, he removed his shirt hastily, tossing it to the side along with any plans of waiting for any more turns. He saw the appreciation in her eyes now as she spread her hands flat against his chest and then moved them down his torso to the soft, black hair on his lower stomach. When she began unfastening the clasp of his pants, he could no longer hold back

from reaching for her, quickly removing her undergarments. As soon as he shed his trousers, he scooped her up and followed her down into the bed, covering her open lips with his own. He raised up on one side to look down into her eyes, which were darkened with their own passion.
Sirana felt her body shaking now, not with fear, but with anticipation and lustful need building in her. She looked back into his eyes as he caressed the soft skin of her breast. He moved his mouth down and kissed her other breast, moving closer and closer towards her nipple, which was tightening into a hard peak. Her body was starting to writhe with anticipation. He finally moved his hot mouth onto her nipple, and she couldn't help but arch her body and moan as he moved his tongue around her nipple and rubbed her other nipple between his fingers at the same time. She could feel the pleasure run a line down her stomach to settle in her core, and she breathed out his name, "...Severus..."
When she felt she couldn't take anymore, he moved his mouth back up to hers. She knew the intensity of his desire matched hers as she could feel the hardness of him pressing against her through his boxers. She ran her fingers into his long hair, grasping onto him desperately.
Severus raised up again, looking down at her beautiful face, which was made even more lovely with her desire for him. Her eyes were closed with inner passion, and he kissed her lips softly once more before moving his hand down her body to caress her soft, downy curls. His own desperate need was building, and he felt the tightness that ached with hard desire. Severus watched

her expression as he slid his finger into her warm slit. He was almost undone when he felt her body tremor and heard the sounds of surprised pleasure come from her. He began moving his fingers in a slow rhythm over her but was careful not to delve too deep as he wanted to save that pleasure for when he entered her completely.
"Please...Severus..." she pleaded breathlessly as she grasped at his shoulders. He could take no more of this sweet agony, and he removed the constrictive underwear in one swift motion.
Severus lowered onto her, and she instinctively moved her legs apart. He embraced her in a final passionate kiss, leaning his head down to her ear, his voice deep and dark with the desire he fought to hold in check just a moment longer, whispering as if not to break the spell, "Sirana...I do not wish to hurt you, yet I cannot hold back from you any longer."
She nodded as if quietly steeling herself. Severus reached down, grabbing her soft hips to bring her up to meet him, his body quaking with the effort of restraint, then slid the length of himself inside her with one swift motion. She cried out, and he saw her eyes flash open. He stopped all movement until she made it past the initial shock of his entry. He could feel her hot and tight around him, and his own resolve almost broke, his own throaty cry escaping, "Sirana..." Her breath slowed as the pain eased and he saw her expression deepen to show her mutual need, hearing her reassuring whisper.
