Summary:
"Strap him down," someone said, and Harry felt the rage thicken inside him -- the viscous fear.
Magical bindings pulled taut around his wrists . . . He felt a wand touch his arm and then a sharp bite as something punctured the skin, and a sweet, cool tonic rushed his veins.
His breathing slowed. His eyelids drooped. The ceiling went grey and dark. And then he heard a woman's voice sigh, "Someone, get Healer Malfoy."Author Notes: This was the easiest story in the world to start and the hardest to finish. I took some liberties with the canon effects of a werewolf scratch. It's a really bad scratch, folks. ;-) Plus, I made up a potion. I'm a rebel like that. I so hope this doesn't disappoint! I'm quite nervous! The ever-amazing
elrhiarhodan betaed this for me, and I thank her so much. I also want to thank
sdkshelly whose wonderful suggestions were and will always be so greatly valued. The title is, predictably, from Duran Duran's "Hungry Like the Wolf".
