Tell Me The Tale of Remus Lupin

I will tell my mother, "Read me the tale of Remus Lupin." It was the only thing that made it hurt less. Listening to her soothing voice as she read, it took my mind away from the excruciating pain of my bones breaking. It made the heat on my skin just a touch bearable. I would scream and scream and she'll keep reading. She knew she gave me strength. That HE gave me strength.
