Chapter 33 - Chapter 31: Friendship of two lionesses and the harvest of a snake

-Inside Hogwarts-

Hermione and I each went our separate ways and only saw each other again just before entering the classroom. We were both hungry, as despite getting up early, we each took quite a bit of time on our things and ended up missing breakfast. Luckily at night I had sent the clone to supply me with the merchant because he had emptied all the food that I keep in the inventory yesterday. There were five minutes left before we had to go to class, so I offered Hermione some of the food she had and we had a quick bite to eat before heading into the classroom.

The class was normal, me and Hermione got back together, which made it easier for both of us. I helped her and she let me entertain myself by bothering her from time to time.

It was a quiet morning, it passed quickly and it was time for lunch. With our reconciliation I went back to sit next to her at the Gryffindor table, which surprised some, but not too much. Harry, Ron and Hermione started to get along by the looks of it, I didn't think to stop their friendship, and oddly enough they also seem less annoyed by my presence.

The two people who were uncomfortable were Parvati and Lavender, they had distanced themselves from Hermione lately, but she told me that she had a talk with them when she went back to her bedroom to take a bath.

The three girls seemed to talk about me, but I wasn't listening to them, my gaze fell on the Slytherin table where I could see how Pansy tried to avoid my gaze, it seems that it is time to reap what I sow.

After lunch he was walking an irritated but quiet Hermione down the hall. I was getting tired of her acting like this, so I decided to ask.

"What's wrong?"

"Any"

"Let's avoid this whole game, just tell me what's up"

"It's Lavander and Parvati" Sigh

"Are they fighting?"

"No, I apologized to them today for my previous behavior and they forgave me, but... they don't agree with me getting close to you again. They thought that when we stopped seeing each other it was a good thing and now that we're back they're not so happy." happy"

She told me what was going on and how worried she was. She wouldn't choose them over me, since despite getting along they aren't inseparable friends, but she still doesn't want to lose her only female friends.

"You can't like everyone"

"I know, but I don't understand why they can't get along with you, they keep saying you're scary and evil"

"Okay… let's fix that, I don't want to make things difficult for you with your roommates, so I think we need to work it out. This afternoon take them to that tower over there, to the room where…" I said as I pointed a tower to realize that Hermione started to tremble, so I quickly changed direction "better that one over there, take them to some empty room"

"You...you're not planning to do anything extreme? Are you?" She asked a little nervously as she looked at the tower that I pointed to first remembering that that was where she had had her meltdown.

"No, we're just going to clear things up between us, calm down" I told her as she rubbed her arms as if warming and comforting her.

"Okay" she said with a very low tone of insecurity.

After that we continue with our day. In the afternoon we had classes normally and when we finished, as agreed with Hermione, she took Parvati and Lavender with her with some excuse.

I followed them from afar so they wouldn't notice me and when I saw them enter a room I knew the time had come.

Inside an uninhabited room were three Gryffindor girls.

"What's wrong Hermione? Why did you bring us here?" Lavender asked.

"Er... well..." The girl didn't know what to say, but she was saved from the awkward situation when the door opened.

When she entered, I could see how the faces of the two girls changed and they became somewhat pale, she didn't know what was going through their heads, but it sure wasn't a good thing. I didn't give them much time to react and quickly approached them. They tried to run away, but it was too late and I grabbed them both by their waists.

The girls were even more terrified and Hermione was shocked too. Lavander and Parvati were screaming and kicking trying to get out of my arms.

"SILENCE!" I yelled causing the two girls to fall silent, trembling and glassy-eyed.

I began to strongly release my [predator aura] causing them to turn white, including Hermione on the side who seemed frozen even though she was about to act to stop me a moment ago. I then started to lower the intensity slightly, while starting to raise the power of the [tranquility auras] and [dominant presence].

"Look at me" I said to both girls in my arms who were trying to lower their heads.

They looked at me compelled by my commanding presence that after the intimidation I produced they were mentally weak enough to resist. When they looked at me I could see how they were crying slightly, but over time, thanks to the change in auras that I produced, I could see how their expressions began to change. From fear to confusion, from confusion to astonishment, and from astonishment to disorientation.

"Are you calm yet?" I asked them

They nodded involuntarily still in some sort of shock.

"Well, can you see how I look?"

They nodded again.

"I look good?"

They nodded again.

"Great" I told them and then gave each of them a kiss on their foreheads "Don't be afraid, I'm not going to do anything bad to you, everything is fine between us, right?"

"Y-yes…" Parvati answered and Lavender just nodded again, both of them still hadn't recovered from what they were seeing.

"Don't you think you're hugging them too much already?" Asked Hermione that after she noticed that nothing bad was happening she relaxed, but seeing that she still hadn't let go of them she wasn't very happy.

"I'm sorry" I said as I let go of both girls who almost fell because they didn't have me for support.

"What is this?" Lavender asked confused, but without any negative emotion in his words, just confusion.

"In the words of other people, I have a curse that makes others fear me and no one who fears me will be able to see my true appearance. Hermione has always seen me for who I really am, so we are friends"

"Have you always looked like this?" Parvati asked.

"Yes, only that you could see it"

"When I heard my sister say that you were actually quite handsome, I thought that she was playing with me... I didn't imagine that it would be true"

"So Hermione always knew? And she didn't tell us?" Lavender exclaimed.

"I tried to do it, but they didn't want to believe me. Although I didn't know anything that they couldn't see your true face"

"Didn't I tell you?"

"Do not"

"I should have forgotten, as you have never feared me, you have always seen me for who I really am" I said, causing the girl to remember the first time she saw me in the book store, where even though she felt intimidated, then seeing my eagerness for reading I do not consider that I was a person who could be bad.

"Has it always been like this? Where no one can really know you until the right girl can get past her fear and see your true self" Lavender said with slightly gone eyes as he caressed my face with his hand.

Hermione and I stared at her weirdly until Parvati took her hand off my face explaining "She likes those kinds of romance novels" she said embarrassed by her friend who then realized what she was doing.

"I guess now there won't be any problems with me being friends with Hermione, right?"

"Of course not" Parvati

"None, I even want you to be our friend too" Lavender said happily.

"Okay, no problem between us or grudges. I have to go collect some debts" I said attracting the attention of the girls, especially Hermione, who seemed to realize that she was talking.

"Okay, see you at dinner" said Lavander, who seemed to have already established our friendship for sure.

As I passed Hermione I patted her shoulder and told her.

"Things are solved with your companions, I hope you are happy"

"Um... Are you going to see Pansy? Hug her?" He said 'hug her' reproachfully.

"Yes, I'll tell you later how she fared"

And without giving him time I left the room. As I closed the door behind me I could hear the two girls starting to question Hermione. I don't know if she will regret that we did this.

Now my way back to Slytherin. It wasn't complicated, although some didn't like it, after what they did on Halloween they ignored me, or so it seemed. The only person less pleased would be Draco in part and Gemma who during lunch gave me dirty looks, but she didn't do anything after that either, but I don't know if it will be the same if we are alone in the same place.

When I entered the common room I saw my prey from a distance. In one part of the room Pansy Parkinson was doing her homework, a little further away from her, but not much were her three roommates. It seems that they don't get along as well as before, although considering that they are eleven-year-old girls, they may reconcile soon.

I approached her with a smile that did not stop growing and although on the outside it seemed one of kindness, inside it the devil's laugh did not stop sounding. Millicent, Tracey and Daphne looked at me confused, while Pansy, noticing me and seeing how she approached me, began to tremble.

"Hello my dear Pansy, how was today?" Ask politely.

"W-what do you want, Weasley?" I ask almost covering her face with her book.

"From your reaction I think you already know why I'm here sweetness"

When the girls heard us talk to each other like that, a nervous Pansy and I flirtatious were taken aback, they seemed to think that maybe they missed something important.

"I do not know what are you talking about"

"Ohh...isn't the honor of the Parkinson house important enough for you to remember?"

She bit her lip in despair, she didn't know what to do, she had lost and now she was here to collect from him.

"I… I don't think it was fair, you cheated at some point, there was no way you would win" she jumped trying to justify herself and save herself from this.

"Does that matter, you bet and lost by any means, if you want you can ask the teachers and see that I have nothing to do with it. Now it's time to pay, but if you don't mind tarnishing your family's reputation and that I, a Weasley, a blood traitor, can call myself a more honorable person than you I can let it go"

When we said these things, the girls seemed to react and understand everything. They remembered that it had been leaking out that Potter had become the Gryffindor Seeker and that Pansy had been looking for answers about what happened after that kind of flying, where on one occasion she seemed to turn completely pale after asking someone. Now they understand and partly rejoice at the misfortune of others, well, not really, if what I demand was something worse, they would possibly jump to defend it, but since it is just a hug they take it with fun.

"I...and-I...I-I agree" she said almost imperceptibly.

"Perfect" I said as I sat down in a chair and then patted my thighs.

"What are you doing?!" t

"It's a deep 10-minute hug, if we do it standing up it will be tiring, so it's better to do it sitting down. Also, it will be very striking, I don't think you want everyone to see you like that, at least that way you can rest your head against me neck and hide from others so they don't recognize you" I told him in a very persuasive way.

She froze at the mention of being seen by others, she was sure if that happened to her then she would want to throw herself off the astronomy tower. But she then turned back to look at me as she patted my legs and seemed to shiver.

"F-Fine" she said as she slowly approached trembling.

She seemed to want to lift a foot, but she immediately put it down, it seemed that this was really difficult for her. When she was finally able to put a leg over me, her expression was unforgettable, when I just supported a minimal part of her leg over mine, you could see her sincere disgust. It takes me a while longer to lean on me than she expected, despite always appearing very dominant, it seems that she still has moments like these.

When I already had her buttocks supported on my legs she was extremely tense and did not stop moving as if she were uncomfortable, nothing physical, but psychologically it must have been a kind of torture for her.

I extended her arms to her with a smile and that made her tremble again, slowly she extended hers and when we were about to hug each other she stopped.

"Since I'll know when the time is up, I won't let you take advantage of me" she almost screamed if it wasn't for her holding back so no one else would notice us.

"Daphne, you could take our time, you are the most neutral here" I told the girl that she was not far from us and that she knew very well that she was secretly observing our actions.

"Okay" she said to then small hourglass which she seemed to wind up, then placed it on the table letting the sand run.

"Well, now hug me, time is running out" I said to Pansy making her look at me with hate.

She braced herself for a moment and hugged me, but she seemed like she barely touched my body.

"Hey, it was a deep hug, the honor of the Parkinson House is only worth this" I complained out loud letting him know that he could get everyone's attention here.

She was nervous and angry, so with her arms she squeezed me tightly. She was venting some of her fury by squeezing me as hard as she could, but to me that came across as somewhat tender.

I was hugging her right now too, though not as tightly as she was. She had her head tucked into my neck, hiding as I told her, keeping her from seeing how I had a smirk on my face, while my arms wrapped around her body.

The three girls stared at us, two of them amused by Pansy's strange performance.

Without anyone besides me knowing, I began to use my abilities. [Tranquility Aura], [Parental Aura] and [Blood Control (Calm, Sleep and Numb)], all of them from a minimum point but with increasing intensity.

Pansy was never exposed to my magic so she didn't notice what I was doing and little by little I felt her body relax. I got to the point where it could already be considered a normal hug, without rancor or hatred, but I didn't stop there, I kept increasing the intensity.

With four minutes past I could feel the light breathing of Pansy who had fallen asleep with her head on my shoulder, still holding me. The three girls watching us widened their eyes at this, they couldn't believe it, Tracey even ran her hand in front of Pansy's eyes to see if it was true.

From my inventory I took out a camera that I had saved for moments like this. I teased Tracey that she was the closest to her and whispered to her so as not to wake up Pansy, though I think that would be impossible, considering I'm at full power with my abilities non-stop.

"Hey, take some pictures of us" I told her as she tried to bring the camera closer to her without moving too much.

Tracey's eyes widened in excitement and she reached for the camera. She along with Millicent took several photos from various angles.

Eight minutes passed and something that surprised me was that Draco entered the common room. When from a distance he saw the red color of my hair, he approached me with the intention of provoking a fight, but when he approached I moved the chair where I was a little to let him see better what I was doing.

He stopped suddenly when he saw someone sitting on my lap, even more to his surprise when he recognized who he was. The moment I saw in her eyes that she knew it was Pansy, I raised my hand and lightly stroked the girl's hair and brought it closer to my face to smell it with a satisfied smile, not without giving the boy who was standing sideways a glance. frozen a few meters from us. I then rubbed my face against her hair for a moment and kissed her head, then started unleashing my [Dominant Presence] and [Predator Aura] at full power in Malfoy's direction.

The shock of him left him mentally unstable, so after receiving my devastating glare he withdrew, no matter what he wanted before he got here, now he just wanted to leave. After he left there was only a minute left to finish our hug.

"Here's the camera and the photos" The girls handed me after seeing Malfoy run away.

I put the camera and the photos I didn't like in my inventory and then take out my wand, well one of them, since I bought more so we can use them with the clone separately. With her I pointed to the photos and wrote some things on some of them.

-When you fight with your blond crush and go into the arms of his enemy-

-When you wake up you are quite a bitch, but asleep you are a tender puppy-

-If you can't against him, submit and beg him to be in his arms-

-When you give up magic to be the pet of your former enemy-

-The Weasley Pillow (Recommended by Pansy Parkinson)-

-Hell, the only reason I'm not naked is because he's shy-

...

After not stopping laughing, I heard the hourglass alarm go off, so I stopped using my abilities, but even so, she continued to sleep on me.

A few minutes passed before, thanks to Daphne, Millicent, and Tracey's chattering about her, she slowly woke up. After rubbing her eyes to look forward, she found my face very close to hers and my crimson eyes looking directly at her.

She looked dumbfounded, her face showing the most puzzlement possible. She didn't react for a few moments and she just stared at me.

I with my hand hold her chin and caress it with my thumb.

"My little princess woke up yet?"

When she heard what I said she seemed to react and she snapped, causing her to fall backwards to the ground to quickly back up with her hands moving away from me.

"What did you do to me Weasley"? He yelled at me, drawing the attention of everyone in the room.

"Me? Nothing, you're the one who fell asleep. I knew my hugs were comforting, but I didn't think it was comforting enough for you to take me as a pillow"

"It can't be, you did something, it can't be true!" She said she denied again and again.

"You can ask them" I told them as she pointed to the giggling girls off to the side.

She looked hopefully at her classmates, since she didn't want to believe that she actually fell asleep herself. But she was disappointed when they nodded at her, it almost felt like something snapped inside her.

"We even have photos" I told her while with my wand I made some copies of the photos she had taken.

When she listened to me she fell more into despair and when she saw them and read what they had written about her, her color did not stop changing. Her hands trembled and she screamed as she smashed them all savagely.

"GIVE THEM TO ME!" She told her, but I think she could even see tears of shame.

"But why? Besides…" I said as I walked over to her and cupped her face gently in my hands and brought mine closer to hers. She didn't resist, I don't think she was hers because she didn't want to, but since she got up she didn't seem to be at her full capacity "...you should know Draco came by and saw us, I guess you want to go explain to him"

When I told him what happened, it seemed that he had a kind of chill again, I think it is the first time that he suffers from so many emotions one after another. She forgot about the photos and ran off to find Draco, but she was so upset that she bumped into everything in front of her, tripping and falling every three steps until she was out of the room.

"HAHAHA..." I laughed accompanied by the other two girls, then again I made some copies of the photos, well actually I made many copies "Here you go" I gave them some of them "You can have fun with this"

The two girls looked at each other for a moment before grabbing the photos, Daphne didn't take any, but I didn't care.

"See you later" I said goodbye.

"Goodbye Network"

"Bye now"

"Goodbye Weasley"

After that I went into hiding to avoid Pansy finding me for the time being, at least until dinner.

Night came and when I appeared in the great hall, I didn't have time to choose the table to go to, since Lavander called me from the Gryffindor table, something that attracted the attention of some people.

Not to cause too much trouble I went over there, I sat next to Hermione properly and on the other side I had the pair of lionesses. Lavender, once she saw me for what she really was, seemed completely emotional, she talked nonstop with me as if we had never had the conflicts before. Parvati, somewhat embarrassed by her friend, also spoke to me more gently but not as enthusiastically.

It was an interesting dinner considering that the Gryffindors were looking at us funny, but we didn't mind because the four of us had a nice chat. I also noticed that at the snake table Pansy seemed to be pleading with Draco while Draco ignored her or yelled at her. The girl sometimes gave me deadly looks, but also other times with a lot of confusion, which seemed strange to me.

To end this day I stayed talking to Hermione and showing her the photos I took of Pansy, except for those that had certain things written on them that she would complain about, but I did give her a copy of the others. She laughed, but she wasn't very happy with what I did either, since she deduced that I used my abilities to take advantage of her. If it wasn't for the fact that she saw me arguing with her, it might have been harder for me to calm her down, but still, she accepted her photos as a way of entertaining herself or in case she ever had to use them against her.
