The cat,so to speak, is out of the bag, and will require petting again soon.

Good girl, Kitten!

Don't leave us hanging!!!! Can't wait for the next chapter 😁

No _harm_ , yep. Thats true :)

woo hoo new chapter but an evil cliffie  please update soon.

Aww man! Can't even wait for the next chapter, the length of this left me feeling distinctly dissatisfied, not unlike how Severus and Hermione are feeling without each other! Loveeee iiiit

Can't wait for Saturday night,, it should be fun.

As always your writing is  so addictive.  I'm so into this story, that I get inpatiient for the updates.  I can not wait to see their inter actions in the next chapter.

Somehow I think he will be there, if she requests him again. 

Well - this is pretty much perfect.

I really, really like this story.  This chapter especially brought just the right amount of heat to counter the sub-zero temps.  pant, pant.
Thinking abount how I hope things proceed... I'm in no hurry for them to resolve the identity issue.  I'd love at least another anonymous episode at TPE before that happens. I'd like to see her get into submission even more. I like where you've taken Severus wavering between his alpha male dom and his personal desires and vulnerabilites. yum Looking forward to more..

This is incredible. Your Hermione is so realistic, one of the best I've read so far :D And Snape is just... Yum.

Wow--hot as usual.  I very much like the twist of them being drawn to each other with concealed identities.  So glad you're bringing to us another Severus/ Hermione pairing!  I can't wait to read how Hermione behaves back at Hogwarts and I wonder how long it will take Severus to suspect something--he's very intuitive....

Writing like this turns a reader into an equally waiting and pliant plant.
I look forward to their slow pavane dance towards trusting the real person, hidden.
what a conquest.
I forgot to drink coffee, and now it is cold. His thoughts made me feel a quiet sadness for him
You write so well.
Favourited and bookmarked.

Thank you for a wonderful chapter!

Well this is going to be fun to watch. Why do I suspect Lucius will be in play here? (pun intended)

I absolutely adore everything you've written.  Thanks for this lovely piece. -gg

Subversa, I come back to your writing years after finding you. You're better than any romance novel. You are such a gift!

Author's Response: I still love the ship and love the stories, and I always read the reviews readers leave for me. Thank you.

“No, why would you? You’d call it Kitten, instead.”  I just knew there'd be hell to pay the moment the words left his lips.

C'mon, Severus.  It's time to take your medicine, and while you're at it, pray that Remona doesn't tell Minerva what you've been up to.

What a delicious passle of emotions you've given us!!!

Severus is completely taken with Kitten, and I wonder how long it will take him to realize who she is.  And I wonder if there will be hurt feelings to work through before they can find happiness?

Beth
 

Boy-O-Boy!  I'm trying to figure out how the pink stationery Hermione bought (with the embossed cat on the envelope flap) is going to figure into this next visit to TPE.  Surely Severus would have noticed her purchase when they were in Scrivenshaft’s?  Wouldn't he?  He doesn't miss a thing.

Thank you for this excellent chapter!

Beth


 

Hummm.  Methinks our Lucius will ferret out this Kitty who has so enamoured his friend.  And what will he do with the information if he can find out her true identity?

Beth

The intense emotions both of them feel will stir the memories of any who have loved truly and deeply.  I hope they will somehow find each other in their "real" lives without having to suffer too much angst before the scales fall from their eyes.  This is a beautiful story.

Beth

Oh!  Will Hermione recognize Sir Tobias by his hands?  Will Severus be reminded of Hermione if Lady Kitty hastily moistens her lips with the tip of her tongue? 

Enquiring minds want to know!

Beth

Come on Tuesday night!  I can't wait to see what happens.  Will Severus be there on a Tuesday?  *cackles*
