Loved It!! Wicked!! Amazing!! Fantastic!! Bloody Brilliant!!

awwww, good chapter lets hope Hermione's able to wrap her mind around the realities of the situation soon.

Awesome! Can't wait for the next chapter...I just hope that Hermione will be able to talk to Severus in the next chapter! I do hope so!

Ach! I've figured out the problem. [Yes, I'm a chronic complainer, but I write this with only the best of intentions.] It's a good story. I like the story. But it is my humble opinion that it lacks passion.

Not sexual passion, but intensity, fervor! It reads more like you are just tickling at the story rathering than shouting it out. Put some oomph in it! Crank up the emotions.

You can be passionate without all the gory details I wrote of in the last chapters review. These people need to express themselves more vividly.

I understand where Hermione is coming from, and I know Snape is not really doing well with her not being able to deal with him, but I really like your Draco. 

Since you only wrote about what Severus did to Hermione, we don't know the extent of any other harm that may have been caused... but I have to feel sorry for her. Regardless of the fact that Severus didn't want to hurt her, he chose a permenant, extremely painful way to do what he didn't want.

I've recently seen the results of a hot metal burn on my sons hand and the scaring is deep and forever. Just what a pretty young woman wants to live with. My point is, I can't believe the memories will be that easily assuaged with visible deformities marring her hands and elsewhere to constantly remind her. And, I can understand why she wouldn't want to have Severus around regardless of how 'prepared' she was.

Lovely tid-bits, but it just leaves one aching for more.  I understand completely what Draco must be feeling because I am too (thanks to you) I just want to lock them in a room together.  I know, I know, Hermione needs to go slow and think her way though all the emotional turmoil.  I look forward to your next submission to see how far they can both come and how fast, because you know Voldemort won't wait for too long.  Keep up the good work, JoAnne

Wow!

His branding her did that block out the rest of her pain of the DE's play time?

Hopefully she will be able to forgive him of such acts.  How is Draco taking all of this?

I can see why this would be a very hard chapter to write.

Waiting for more. 

Thank you. 

Oh, I really hate reviewing.....I don't feel like we should have any affect on writers, positively or negatively.  I'll just say I'm eager to see the rest of the story.  It is very interesting and I look forward to your updates. 

I am not sure what to say. I have enjoyed your story and you are an exellent writer, but I am not sure I would like  the turn I think this story is taking. I find the situation where Severus, no matter the need for continue spying, is taking a student and someone I think he is responsible for, into a situation where the outcome will be torture and rape. I also find it hard to belive that Hermione willingly, no matter how "necessary", will let her self be tortured and raped by several Death Eaters with no greater wish than to hurt, torture, humiliate and probably kill her. I think that when the next update is submitted, I will have to make a decission on weather or not I want to continue reading this story. I read fanfiction because I love the characters, I want to be entertained,  and want the good guys winning at the end. No matter if your intention is to let the "good" side win at the end, the price  migth be to high to pay. Rape is a serious situation with ramifications for the futuere way wider the actual time it happens. I can't find it belivable for Hermione to ever forgive Severus for letting this happen to her, even if she would know that he is more or less forced to do so, and I can't imagine Severus being able to forgive him self either (and I am nor sure he should be able to forgive him self).  To be honest, for him to do this marks him as the coward he himself hate to be called in my eyes. Well, enough about me ranting, your story still deserves it's five stars, and if I don't like the next turn of the story I will stop reading it without flaming you.

I am at the edge of my seat with this story! I just can't help wondering what's next! Amazing as always!

A.M.B.

Very intense story.  Should Hermione Sleep with Severus or Draco first?  It might cause less damage.  Update soon!

Sorry but the entire story doesn't work. You have not shown a convincing reason for her to place herself in this position.  Would be better to have kidnapped her to begin and have them save her.  Your writting is excellant by the way. It kept me reading. Voldemort is coming across as a bit lame, I think he would revel in excess torture, you could also say Harry is more concerned with the thought the torture is ongoing and finds himself unable to concentrate while she is missing. That or in his arragance- Voldemort hopes to sway her loyalties. Anyway I would scrap or rewrite it cause it could be very good.

wow. This is great I love the way this story is going... I'm a little aprehensive about the next meeting though!Don't wait too long to update please!

Hello,

Happy for the update.  It seems Severus will have to do some breaking in with her.  Is that what the looks are about? He feels sad it will have to come to that?  Or has the Dark Lord told him in advance that they will give a performance for all to see and she must maintain her innocence?

Or do I need to read this over again to recall what is what?

Well I have to get shower fresh off to a meeting tonight.  Oh joy.  Would rather stay at home and read your story.

Have a great week. 

I'm dreading Hermione's next meeting. I don't think I'll have the stomach if/when that scene comes to pass. I still can't wait for the next chapter though.

A good story.  I don't really like the fact that Hermione was tortured so badly. Great plot and characters!

Execellent fic!

how many chapters left? *scared look* i want it to keep going on and on and on and yea. :)

An interesting story and you write well.  However, I have some trouble understanding why Hermione would agree to put herself in this situation in the first place...

Intriguing. I can't wait to see who the guy is. My gut says that it's Malfoy, a secret Order member, and he was party Disillusioned... or something. LOL Maybe it's Snape on Polyjuice? Teehee... Mah mind is wandering!

Since you say the story is already written, I guess there isn't any point in begging for a happy ending (meaning Severus and Hermione, alive, happy, and together), is it? Oh well, I like it so far and will hope for the best! Thanks for your work.

I see you've twisted canon a bit in your story, because I don't think Harry would ever tell anyone else than Ron and Hermione about the Horcruxes. Now I wonder what that unexpected place Hermione will find herself might be.

I like the start and find it interesting that the trio will be at the Dursleys together. I wonder if they'll give Dudley a taste of magic... Muahahaha

Great beginning! I loved the sassy Hermione..
