Hermione's breath was laboured, harsh as she kept her lungs inflated. She was wedged between Lovegood and Longbottom with Dolohov, Avery and Bellatrix standing in front of her. Dolohov and Avery had noticed the mark and were making a conscious effort not to look at her. Bellatrix - on the other hand - had bared her teeth and Hermione realised with a cold jolt of fear that while Bellatrix had orders not to kill her - lest Voldemort lose one of his spies - she certainly would not let Hermione go unscathed.
