What will happen ?

Will Severus explain himself?

Will Erica forgive him?

In the end of this chapter there will be heavy smut!

Hope you like it!

Don't forget to review!

Erica had stayed home despite it being a Saturday night.

This was certainly not the way she'd wanted to spend the evening, but she had no intention of going out.

She snorted while continuing to take it out on the remote control as she flipped from channel to channel looking for something interesting.

Not even the hot bath with the salts she loved so much had served to change her foul mood.

She was furious with herself, because she had not been able to resist Severus a few days earlier and could only blame the god-like physique that Severus carried with him at the age of thirty-two!

Severus had stomped on her heart and she, stupid, had fallen into his arms without much compliment.

After two years, she still hadn't managed to make her heart stop loving him.

Nothing had served, not the warnings, rigid and severe orders because love when is true follows only one rule: to love, to love unconditionally, without limits.

The doorbell brought Erica out of her self-pity and made her jump.

Who could it be?

Erica looked at her watch, seeing that it was just ten o'clock.

It certainly wasn't Eileen, she was with Morgan at Lily and James' house, and they would only return the next morning.

Erica shrugged, deciding to get up and see anyway.

She walked barefoot wrapping herself in her nightgown to cover her outfit made practically from a white silk dress that didn't even reach her knee.

"Who's there?"

There was no answer, which made her genuinely concerned.

The door was locked, so Erica heaved a sigh of relief before looking through the peephole and for a moment she thought she was dreaming.

Then disbelief left room for anger.

Erica gritted her teeth to hold back a scream, but she had never been good to control her emotions.

"Go away, Severus." she screamed, turning her back on the door and leaning against it "I don't want to see you."

"I have to speak to you, Erica.

Don't be a brat and open up. " thundered Severus from the other side of the door.

He was ready to break down the door and she seemed not to even remotely mind this risk.

"Ah, I'm the brat." Erica exclaimed ironically, leaning her back on the door to make herself comfortable

"You are the one who is not behaving like a mature man!"

"I'll show you the mature man if you don't open this door." Severus threatened her in a tone of voice that was authoritative and ... mischievous?

Erica on the other end of the door could not help but light up like a match.

"You're a bastard, Snape." she warned him by kicking the door backwards.

"Why do you think I'm here?"

"I do not know." Erica said turning back to the door.

"Well, open the door, so I'll explain it to you."

Erica snorted.

She knew that as soon as she'll see him, the countdown in view of her failure would begin.

There was no point in resisting Severus, she hadn't succeeded two years before, she wouldn't have succeeded now, even after so much suffering.

When he heard the lock turn Severus let out a deep sigh.

He had to try to be as sincere as possible even if he would have seriously risked seeing her disappear forever from his life.

At least he would have no regrets.

Once again Severus' good intentions disappeared when he saw Erica wearing only a dressing gown which didn't cover much.

He felt his heart beat faster like a bull puffing and shaking before crashing into his bullfighter.

He closed his eyes for a moment, bringing his hands to his face.

"Is this the way to come and open the door?" he told her angrily.

Erica smiled pleased that despite everything she always had her effect on that man for whom she would lose her life.

All she needed was her life : her heart, mind and soul had already been sentenced long ago!

"You are right." she said Removing her robes and showing him her silky nightgown "Much better."

Severus smiled stepping forward and making Erica take two steps back.

"Do you want to punish me?" he asked her with the face that had the power to melt and freeze her at the same time.

"I won't make it easy for you, Snape." Erica warned him putting her night robes on her arm and putting her hands on her hips

"What is this urgent matter you have to tell me?"

"The real reason for my actions two years ago ..." Severus said, becoming serious.

Erica felt her heart stop again.

"Come." Erica said making her way into the living room.

She turned off the TV and sat down on the sofa.

Severus was close to her, slightly spreading his legs and resting his elbows on them, his lips to his hands joined to form a single fist.

Erica, put her hands on her legs.

"What I'm about to tell you will probably shock you and in the end you will probably hate me even more Erica ...

But you deserve to know the truth about what I did two years ago …

James and I have never been friends ...

My first true friend was Lily.

We were 10 when we met and immediately hit it off ...

When we were both in high school, we met James Potter ... He was the classic, spoiled, arrogant boy from a good family who was used to having everything regardless of the feelings of others and when he saw me and Lily he decided to target us.

At that time I had a slight crush on Lily and he seemed to notice it, because he started buzzing around her trying to impress her "

Erica listened without saying a word.

"But she did not even seem to notice James's attentions, she was more committed to defending me when your brother came to insult me and to make jokes that at the beginning were simple skirmishes but that over time became real bullying towards me ...

Until one day James went too far… "Severus said without abandoning his position but only turning his head towards Erica.

"One day while I was in the high school's courtyard he and his group of friends, that Remus was part of, came to me and taking advantage of the fact that I was alone they began to make disparaging jokes about the fact that I could not ask Lily out and that she would never go out with someone like me ... according to them I would never know what to do with a woman.

Then James told me that he would make a deal with me ...

We would have faced each other and if I had won he would have left Lily in peace, but if James would win I would have to leave her alone ...

I told him that Lily was not an object and when i turned with the intent of getting away from there, James laughed and attacked me from behind ... "

Erica felt as if a bucket of icy water had just fallen on her head.

Had your brother really done such a deplorable and vile thing?

The James that Severus was describing could not be her brother, he would never have bullied someone for no reason, nor considered a girl an object to be won at all costs.

'James grew up with father, and you know exactly what kind of maschilist that man was, since he didn't hesitate to give you to a family that he had paid for, to hurt you.

And just because you were born female! "

Erica jumped, seized by a slight sense of dizziness and nausea.

"No, don't tell me ..." she said, slowly approaching Severus.

Severus loved Erica for this: for her perspicacity, for her dry and witty intelligence.

It was then that he rose from the sofa.

"Lily saw us and got in the middle defending me as usual.

I don't know what went into my head at that moment ...

Maybe I was humiliated because a girl was defending me in front of the person who was bullying me …

I said something terrible, I'm still ashamed now ... I told her that I didn't need her help, and I called her a whore...

She didn't want to forgive me anymore, even though I kept apologizing ...

We didn't see each other until four years ago, when she invited me to her wedding with James and after the ceremony she took me aside and apologized for leaving me, and she told me she had forgiven me for calling her that name.

But I was angry with your brother and ... "

Erica's eyes widened almost at the risk of losing them.

"Severus, don't tell me you made me suffer … for this ?"

"James was arrogant and spoiled and had taken the woman I thought I loved at the time away from me, and when I met you I thought ..."

Severus lowered his head with a defeated look.

He was about to lose her forever, he knew it very well.

He clenched his fists at his sides.

"You thought that being James Potter's sister I had grown up in luxury, that I was arrogant and spoiled like him ... that's why you made up your mind to seduce me ... To make James pay for it ..." Erica finished for him with a neutral tone, her green eyes suddenly empty even if full of tears.

Erica burst into hysterical laughter as she began to walk from one side of the room to the other.

"You're just an asshole." she said from time to time feeling that despite everything, despite the pain of that truth, she could not hate the father of her daughter

"You made me suffer like this, just because you thought I was spoiled like my brother …"

"It was James," Severus admitted, making her stop.

"What?"

"He told me about the terrible childhood you had because of your father.

And then he apologized for treating me like shit in high school and we became friends …

I believe Lily changed him in a good way …

Just like you did for me Erica.

Believe me if I tell you that in these two years there has not been a day when I have not regretted what I did, and the horrible way in which I deceived and treated you later.

Seducing and insulting you that way, for something as absurd as revenge against your brother is something that I will never be able to forgive myself.

I never told James the truth about that night ...

I didn't want to lose his friendship ... "Severus admitted feeling fragile as never before in his life.

"You should have told me the truth from the beginning instead of resorting to such a stupid subterfuge ..." Erica said with her back to him.

Severus tried to open his mouth again but the words remained in his throat.

The most terrible of predictions had just come true and did not concern good weather or bad weather.

It concerned the very near cataclysm that was about to fall upon him.

He had lost the woman of his life, and it was all his fault.

Severus dropped his hands to his sides, walking towards the door with his heart shattered.

"You should have told me." Erica repeated as she heard him move towards the door.

Severus turned and Erica did too.

They looked at each other and for a moment time seemed to stop.

"You should have told me Severus ..." Erica said before running in his direction and literally jumping on him.

The backlash was unexpected as was the kiss.

The man really didn't expect it.

Their tongues had never been so happy to meet.

Erica threw her arms around his neck while Severus held her by the legs tied to his waist.

"Because I would have told you that you're just an asshole, a fool, a super sexy idiot." the girl laughed with tears peeping from her eyes, biting his lower lip.

"Which I will do for the rest of my life.

You're a fool, Snape. "

Severus also laughed kissing her again.

"You hate me, don't you?" he whispered a few millimeters from Erica's lips.

"Of course I hate you, Severus.

I hate you for making me suffer like that. " she said kissing him again

"Did you really think I would let you out of that door and from my life after all the suffering you put me through?

Morgan and I need you ...

So, prepare to pay for it, honey. "

Severus smiled.

"I can't wait, Potter."

They kissed again while the dark-haired man's hands went up from the legs to the woman's buttocks holding them eagerly.

Two years ... Two long years had not served to scratch the feeling that Erica felt for Severus.

Erica had tried several times to hate him, but had never succeeded.

"The Dursleys have always told me how much I was a monster, an imbecile, a freak ... And when you said those terrible things that night ... I was convinced that there really was something in me that prevented people from loving me" explained Erica in her voice suddenly broken.

" This isn't true!

You are perfect, Erica.

You are beautiful, intelligent, insightful, sexy, altruistic ...

I want everything you have to give me, Erica"

He told her rubbing his cheek against her silky midnight hair.

" All you have to do is ask, Severus" she said kissing his cheek.

Severus captured her lips with his in a soft kiss

" Erica, lie with me tonight.

Let me love you as i should have done two years ago …" he said, his voice rough and unsteady.

Erica smiled with tears in her eyes " Tonight and every night, for as long as you want me … love."

Severus kissed her hungrily " Always …".

She wrapped her arms around his neck as he lifted her and carried her down the hall to her bedroom staring eye to eye with her.

He laid Erica down on the bed and then straddled her hips, careful to keep his weight off her, he settled back on his heels, his eyes on hers as he caressed her lace nightgown, which cupped the milky white skin of her breasts and the darker pink of her hard nipples.

Severus stared at her for a long moment before tracing one finger along the edge of the ivory satin

" You're ravishing Erica…" he said making her blush.

Rolling off of her, Severus pulled her up until they were both kneeling on the bed facing each other. He slowly slid the nightgown off her shoulders, cuppingg her breasts in his hands " Ahhhhh … Severus !" .

Severus looked at Erica suddenly worried " do they hurt?" he asked nuzzling the valley between her breasts

" N-no, just … sensitive " she sighed softly as one warm hand closed over her, gently massaging her flesh.

Severus cupped her breasts and gently urged her unto her back " I'll be gentle …"

His mouth enclosed over one nipple, starting a gentle suction that made Erica arch her hips in response as a soft whimper escaped her parted lips " Severus …" she tugged at his shoulders, rubbing her hips against his when he laid down fully against her.

" We have all the time in the world my love …" he said brushing his thumb over her stiff nipple.

Erica's eyes glazed over when his other hand cupped her between her thighs.

Erica urged him on with a rocking motion, and huffed; her damn panties were in the way!

She reached for them, only to have Severus brush her hands away.

" Let me …" he murmured, as he eased the silky panties down her thighs and throwing them away.

His eyes roamed over her naked body and he whispered "You're beautiful Erica … I missed you so much" Erica smiled and kissed him passionately " I missed you too Severus …".

Severus lowered his head nuzzling her moist cleft as erica screamed arching her hips " Severus !"

He slid his his hands beneath her hips, holding them as he drank from her.

He stabbed her clit, working it with his teeth before soothing it with his tongue, lapping at the plump lips of her sex, while Erica's hands gripped at his head, at first trying to hold him back and then, gripping him closer as he thoroughly loved her with his mouth.

" Severus … nnnnghhhh …." she moaned as Severus's tongue swirled and dipped into her.

He then changed his angle until he could nibble at the bundle of nerves at the top of her wet slit, and as his tongue circled and massaged her clit Erica felt her climax approaching.

With a gasp, she fell into a deep downward spiral, her breath knocked out of her as a storm of white hot pleasure pummeled her from all sides.

Her hips bucked up once more as Severus slid one finger inside her, the touch of his finger brushing against her sensitized flesh drew the orgasm out until she could hardly see, could barely breath as it flooded through her.

Moments later her eyes drifted open and Severus was crunched above her, completely naked, moisture gleamed along his mouth and when he kissed her she could taste herself on him.

" Roll over" he said guiding her onto her belly

" I want to se all of you, my love …"

She laid on her belly while Severus stroked her sides and her butt.

" You've got the prettiest ass …" he told her rocking his cock against her butt and groaning " I need you …" he whispered brushing her hair aside and biting her neck

" I need to be inside of you, feel your hot little cunt of yours around me…"

Erica whimpered and squirmed under his hands " Sev …" she arched her hips instinctively.

Severus thrusted against her butt, his cock cuddled between her cheeks and that feel almost drove him insane.

" Not like this …" he panted rolling her onto her back " I want to see your face while i fill you up, while i make you mine …" he whispered while he settled between her thighs.

Severus plunged deep into her, until he was settled inside her " I'm yours as you are mine …Erica … And I'll never ever let you go …"

" I hope not … Erica whispered clenching around him as the heat started to build inside her once more.

Rocking her hips to meet his, she stared into his black obsidian eyes.

Erica could feel Severus deep inside of her, the head of his cock rubbing against her special spot.

Each time he nudged it, she was pushed a little closer to mind shattering ecstasy.

Severus slowed his thrusts until he was barely rocking inside her, her fingers biting into his ass while she tried to pull him further inside.

" Want more love ?" Severus asked, pulling out a little farther before easing back inside her.

Erica was tight and hot and wet, her sex gloving his shaft, until he was nearly blinded by the pleasure.

" Please, Severus …" Erica groaned thrusting her hips high to take him deeper.

" Tell me …" he purred, grasping her hands and pinning them beside her head lowering his head to her ear he whispered " Tell me you want me to, fuck you, love to you…"

Erica flushed as Severus stared at her waiting " fuck me Severus … please fuck me … love me … I need you !"

Keeping her hands pinned Severus rose up and started to fuck her hard and fast, just like she asked.

Erica tensed and her inner walls spasmed around him as she came with a scream, Severus felt his balls drawing tight and was about to pull out of her body, but Erica kept him inside of her.

" Erica …I'm about to …" he told her but she smiled

"I'm on the pill, you can come inside … I'm protected …" .

" Shit…" he muttered against the side of her neck he set his teeth against the curve of her neck and bit down just as he lost control, semen pulsing out of his body in hot spurts of fire.

Erica started to seize again, her vaginal walls convulsing and shuddering around him for the second time, then she came and Severus felt like he had found his way into heaven.

" Are you ok?" Severus asked her a few minutes later, his voice drowsy, one arm around her waist as he cuddled her up against him.

"Never been better …" Erica replied with a soft yawn.

" I want to see our daughter … I want to know her …" he muttered softly looking at Erica who smiled " You will get to know her tomorrow … and maybe we'll tell her you are her father … and we'll do something together as a family …" Erica smiled and kissed Severus's lips " I'd like that …" he then yawned tiredly.

They drifted towards sleep only one thought bothered Severus ' I hope Morgan will like me …".

When Erica's eyes drifted open a pink pale ray of sun was coming through the window, it was sunrise.

Against her back Severus slept on.

Erica was certain she was dreaming.

But she could smell him, she felt the solid steady beating of Severus's heart.

Her legs went weak just thinking of how they spent the night, her insides were turning to hot lava.

Slowly she moved out from under his arm, turning to stare at him. A small smile had the corner of his mouth turned up just slightly.

Severus had said he wanted to know Morgan, and to be with them as a family.

Erica's eyes closed, and she turned her head away as tears stung her eyes.

Severus gentle hand cupped her elbow " what's wrong Erica?" he asked her, sleepily.

Dashing away her tears she smiled " I'm fine … just a little overwhelmed, …" She tucked her chin against her chest, letting him pull her towards himself .

His erection pressed against her lower back, making her arch and moan " You're not sore ?" he asked resting one hand on her belly.

" No …" she whispered, as his teeth nipped at the curve where neck joined shoulder, before urging her onto her knees.

But when Erica started to turn Severus held her still, stroking his hands over her buttock and hips before one hand slipped between her thighs, parting her folds.

On hands and knees Erica tensed when she felt Severus pressing against her

" Easy, Erica …" he whispered rocking gently against her, entering her.

With each subtle thrust of his hips Severus moved deep inside her.

Erica buried her face against the mattress and whimpered under his touch.

When Severus was buried inside her he gripped her hips softly, nudging her just slightly forward before pulling her back to meet him

" So tight and wet …" he muttered.

Slowly he stroked'Erica's bottom with his hands murmuring softly to her until the tension left her body.

And then Severus pushed a little deeper, a little harder.

At the beginning it hurt, but then Erica moved back to meet his hips eagerly faster and faster, until Severus was slamming into her, his hand clamped on her hips tightly enough to bruise.

Erica convulsed around his cock with a scream only moments before he pulled out of her and came on her back in thick warm spurts.

Her upper body collapsed, and Severus groaned before locking an arm around her waist, he rolled onto his side bringing her with him" i love you so much, Erica. he whispered in her ear before they fell back asleep.
