A/N: I have no clue what plans for badassery I had, sorry. I literally just wrote most of this. If you see an error, lemme know.

Enjoy.

The next morning, Minerva awoke to a series of the soft kisses on her face. Her eyes opened slowly and the most beautiful sight greeted her. Hermione's golden eyes shined with nothing but love and adoration. There was no pain, no sadness, no weight in her eyes. Minerva sat up quickly her eyes still searching golden ones for any residual suffering.

"Hermione." She breathed out happily and the brunette smiled. Their lips met in a kiss full of love and apology. Joyful tears slowly trailed down Minerva's face and Hermione kissed them way, just as gentle as before. "You…you're…?"

Hermione nodded, "I'm fine, love. Come here."

Minerva straddled Hermione and gently cupped her face, watching for a wince or a falter in her eyes. Hermione smiled and turned her head to kiss her hand. "I'm fine."

More tears fell and Minerva's hand trembled, "Hermione!" She cried softly and kissed her again, pressing her body against the woman. Arms wrapped around her with a strength she hadn't experienced since before…everything. She moaned and began yanking Hermione's clothes off. "I need you." She breathed against Hermione's lips urgently.

Hermione growled and ripped Minerva's clothes off as well, desperate to feel her skin. Soon they were both naked and Minerva was grinding against her stomach. Someone moaned and it was answered with another in turn. Their lips rarely parted and Hermione squeezed Minerva's ass, pulling tighter, harder against her.

"Hermione!" Minerva shouted as she tossed her head back. "Gods. I've missed you so much."

Hermione sucked at Minerva's throat as she brought a hand down between them. She easily pushing two fingers past Minerva's slick, heated folds and entered her as deeply as possible.

"Fuck!" Minerva shouted with abandon. How long had it been since she'd had Hermione like this? "So long." She moaned out loud and Hermione buried her face in Minerva's breasts, signaling her agreement with a kiss to her sternum.

"Too long." She said and latched onto a pink nipple. Minerva's fingers tangled in her hair as she rode Hermione's fingers.

"Oh fuck!" she yelled with a smile and ground down on the fingers impaling her. They curved and Minerva's entire body shook with the force of her climax. She screamed Hermione's name as her hips jerked uncontrollably.

Eventually she slowed, but Hermione's fingers kept their pace and Minerva groaned, "I love you so much." She bowed over, burying her face in Hermione's hair as she felt her second orgasm crash over her. It was weaker than the first, but still just as mind blowing.

After Minerva reciprocated and ate Hermione till she howled, the two women journeyed into the kitchen for food.

"So…" Minerva started, "how will we do this?"

Hermione looked up from her devouring of her lunch. Minerva rolled her eyes, but smiled at the sight. Hermione cleaned her mouth and cleared her throat. "Well, he said that they were invoking my name. If we place a taboo on it, then we can find them whenever they speak of me. I'll get started on researching that."

Minerva nodded, "While you do that, I'll research the traps he spoke of. We should also go see Remus and check on the state of the wolves. How they are taking to the new laws."

Hermione nodded, "And Hogwarts as well. Do you wish to take over the school?"

Minerva shook her head, "I honestly don't think I could ever go back. I'd rather spend my days with you."

Hermione sighed, "Are we sure that isn't just fear talking? How about we pay a visit anyway?"

Minerva grimaced, the thought of visiting that place sent a stone straight to her stomach, but she knew Hermione had a point, "Very well, Hermione. If we must. You're lucky I love you."

Hermione rose a brow and Minerva's eyes suddenly welled up as she misinterpreted the raise of Hermione's brow. "No. No you're not, are you? Oh Hermione I feel so guilty still." She moved to kneel before the wolf. "I promise to do everything right this time, my love. Never again will I doubt you, and never will I give you the chance to doubt me."

She cupped Hermione's face and kissed her gently. "I love you, darling. More than words can express. Even with that damned demon whispering in my ear. It hurt me so badly to be so convinced that you could never love me for my actions. But I know now, that you and I share a bond that can never be broken."

Hermione smiled, and in a rare shy moment, looked away from the intensity of Minerva's gaze. "I'm glad." She said and kissed her cheek. "Shall we go to Hogwarts and then to Remus? Best to rip it off like a band-aid, and if you get angry, I'm sure there's some naughty wolf who needs punishing. If you behave, I might even let you drink their blood."

Minerva's eyes widened, and her lips twitched. Her canines dropped quickly and she groaned, "Hermione…I don't think I should. Like he said, It's addictive."

Hermione licked her lips, "Well I must admit, I'd like to see you high off of blood when I can take full advantage. Besides. If you lose your mind," She gripped Minerva's neck and slammed her on top the table, growling, "I can always put you back in your place."

Minerva whimpered, and turned her head to the side, showing her throat her Alpha. Her hips also thrust, letting Hermione know how much she appreciated the manhandling.

"Let's not forget that you're stronger now, Minerva. I can toss you around all I want and you'll only grow wetter. Isn't that right?"

Minerva's eyes fluttered and she nodded.

"Look at me." Hermione ordered.

Their eyes met and Minerva smirked, licking her sharp teeth. Hermione groaned, "I'm so fucking you later tonight." Minerva laughed and Hermione helped her off the table.

Minerva walked through the school with her hand in Hermione's, squeezing it tightly. She was terrified of the children, terrified of what they might say to her. What if she grew so angry she -

"Professor!" Someone shouted and raced towards her. It was one of the fifth years. He ran into her legs and hugged them before stepping back. "Please tell us you're coming back to the school."

Everyone quieted and looked at her, all awaiting the answer.

"I'm not certain. It has been quite a year. Surely, mine and Professor Dumbledore's replacements have been satisfactory?"

The child scrunched his nose, "But they are not you!"

"Yeah!" Everyone shouted.

Minerva's eyes widened at the response.

"Plus, your wife is the Alpha! They're nowhere near as cool as you either!" A few children laughed and agreed.

"Not to mention you've come back from the dead!"

Minerva looked at Hermione and the wolf smiled, "I am pretty cool." Minerva glared and Hermione chuckled before addressing the students. "Alright, everyone, the cool Alpha is the reason your precious McGonagall may not return. We have wolves to take care of and it's a two-woman job. There's no guarantee that she'll come back, but we will see what we can do. Now off to class or whatever you go."

Everyone aww'd, but did as they were told.

"Excuse me." A young child said and Hermione kneeled down to eye level. "Yes?"

The boy fidgeted slightly, seemingly frightened by Hermione's eyes. She watched silently, and Suddenly she was tackled by the young body. His arms were thrown around her shoulder's and he latched on like a leech. Hermione's eyes widened and she looked up at Minerva, who smiled and shrugged.

"Um." Hermione said and patted his back.

He released her, with tears shining in his eyes. My father was in Azkaban for killing a man, but my mommy says because of the Alpha he got a fair trial and was found not guilty and he's home now. Thank you."

Hermione smiled, "You're welcome." He grinned and ran off. "Well that was unexpected." Hermione said and Minerva chuckled,

"Yes it was. I never imagined you being quite so good with children."

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Alright. Let's go see Remus."

Minerva snickered and held to her arm, "Yes Hermione."

"Hello Remus."

Remus nearly jumped out of his skin. His limbs went askew and he fell out of his chair.

"Hermione? Minerva?" His head slowly rose from beneath the table until his shocked eyes were visible.

Minerva's eyes twinkled with amusement and she smiled, "Remus. It is good to see you."

Remus blinked stupidly and gestured towards the two of them, as he stood up, "How did…what?!"

The two women laughed and told him the abridged tale. Remus sat back down in his chair and shook his head, "Wow. Well, um. Welcome back, Minerva."

She thanked him and they all sat down. "How are things?" Hermione asked.

Remus nodded, "The laws are all in effect, and so far, it is working well. The wolves have mostly behaved, with only a few issues here or there. Nothing requiring the death penalty or even serious jail time. Even Greyback has been quiet."

Minerva answered, to everyone's surprise, "That is good. What of the masses? Are they more accepting towards the wolves? And the children? Are we certain they aren't being targeted in schools?" Hermione smiled, pleased to see Minerva taking a more active role in things this time around.

Remus hummed as he thought and composed his answer, "Ah, yes. People are kinder towards us as a whole. We aren't sure how long that will last for. The children are bullied, but nothing more than the usual 'how dare you be different' bullying. No malicious pranks have been pulled, nor anyone demanding the wolves be put elsewhere."

Minerva nodded, "Very well."

Hermione smiled and asked, "Is there anything or anyone you haven't been able to handle?"

He smiled, "Yes actually, there is. The bitch. We found her. And as you requested, she has been passed around for torture, repeatedly."

The two women both developed terrifying smirks, and Remus gulped. He had no doubt the two women had both survived a trip to hell. "Follow me." He said.
