-Chapter Fourteen-
Lying in bed the night before returning to Hogwarts, Harry sighed and rolled over to his side. Placing his arms across his eyes, Harry shut them again and tried to force himself into sleep.
He had had a long day, but for some reason he was having a hard time falling asleep. During the day Severus had taken him to the ministry to get his license to legally apparate. In total it had taken four hours and it was physically draining for Harry.
After they had returned home, Harry took a short nap before he had to meet Severus again to practice occlumency. Harry was picking it up quickly, but he still had quite a way to go before he could successfully keep masters of legilimency out of his mind.
After a few minutes he gave up and thought back to the day a week ago when he talked to Draco about Sirius.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walking down the hall, Harry stopped quite a few times trying to figure out what he would say to Draco and hoping that he wouldn't walk into another scene like the one that he had walked in on the previous day with Voldemort.
"Just my luck that's exactly what they'll be doing." Harry mumbled shoving his hands into his pockets.
"Be doing what Harry?" Sirius asked as when he stepped out of his room and almost into Harry.
Giving a slight yelp and jumping Harry glared at his godfather.
"Nothing Sirius don't worry about it." Harry said hoping that he wasn't blushing.
Giving him a slightly odd look, Sirius shrugged his shoulders and started down the hall.
"If you say so Harry." Stopping half way down the hall he turned back to Harry and said, "Oh yeah your fathers and 'mother' are meeting with someone right now and don't want to be disturbed. They asked me to let you know." Without waiting for an answer, Sirius turned and continued walking down the hall.
"Thanks." Harry called to the now empty hall knowing that Sirius didn't hear him. Shaking his head, Harry turned and continued down the hall and stopped to knock on Draco's door. Hearing Draco call out for him to come in, Harry opened the door and stepped in.
"Hello Harry. What can I do for you?" He asked looking over the top of the book he had been reading.
"I wanted to talk to you about something." Harry said silently cursing when he felt a blush spread across his face.
"Sure, but it must really be something if you're blushing just from thinking about it." Draco teased setting his book aside. "Come have a seat." Draco said motioning to the big bed he was sitting on.
Willing the blush away, Harry moved over to the bed and sat down drawing his knees up and sat his chin down on them.
" I was just wondering how everything is going with you and Sirius." Harry said rubbing his chin against his knees.
"Oh, it's been going really good. We've been getting along really well." Giving a wide grin, Draco added, "Really, really well."
"I know that." Harry mumbled into his knees. "That's what I wanted to talk about. Last week when Voldemort was here we were going down to fathers study and we heard a noise from Sirius' room. We opened the door and you and Sirius were a little preoccupied."
Tilting his head to the side, Draco frowned lightly while he tried to remember what Harry was talking about. "Oh." Draco said grinning. "You two walked in when we were 'getting to know each other'."
"If that's what you're calling it, then yeah that's when we walked in." Clearing his throat, Harry then asked, "Have you told father about this?"
"Not yet, Sirius thinks it would be better if we wait a little while." Draco said looking slightly put off.
"What's wrong?" Harry asked catching the look.
"What if he doesn't really want me? What if that's why he's just doing this because he knows what will happen if we don't mate?" Draco asked looking scared.
"Draco trust me on this, Sirius doesn't do anything that he doesn't want to do. You should talk to him about how you feel if this is bugging you this much."
"Yes Draco, you should have told me that something was bugging you as soon as it started to." Sirius said from his spot at the door. "Harry would you excuse us?"
"Of course, I'll see you later at lunch." Harry said to the both of them. Standing up, Harry walked over towards the door and gave Draco a reassuring look then turned to Sirius and whispered, "You really should tell our father about this. It would make Draco feel a lot more secure about your feelings about him as his mate. Besides father would probably kill you when he finds out that you kept this information from him."
Grinning at Harry, Sirius gave him a pat on the shoulder and said, "We will Harry and thanks for getting him to talk about it. After yesterday when we talked he wouldn't tell me what was wrong."
"No problem Sirius. Just remember that he's like me; he's still only a teenager who acts older then he really is."
"When did you get so smart?" Sirius asked teasingly.
"I've always been smart. I only show it to certain people." Harry said grinning at him. Giving Draco one last reassuring smile, Harry walked out of the room and headed back towards his own.
Rolling back onto his back, Harry gave a tired grin as he remembered how Lucius had reacted when Sirius and Draco informed him about their status as mates.
The family had been eating breakfast for a few minutes chatting about mundane things until Draco and Sirius exchanged quick glances with each other.
Clearing his throat, Draco looked up towards Lucius and said, "Father I have something I need to tell you."
"What is it Draco?" Lucius asked setting aside the Daily Prophet he had been looking over.
"Well as you know I became of age to find my mate back in June." Jumping slightly, Draco looked down and watched as Sirius' foot inched up his leg to rub against his calf. Looking back up, Draco glared at Sirius but only got a sultry wink back.
"Draco you were saying." Lucius said when Draco didn't continue.
"Oh, right. Well like I said about my coming of age. Well I was able to find my mate since then. It turns out that Sirius is my mate." Draco said quickly watching his father for any reaction.
Picking up his cup of tea, Lucius took a sip then set it back down. Lacing his fingers together, Lucius looked at Draco and started to talk.
"Draco, my son, congratulations on finding your mate so soon after your coming of age." Turning to look at Sirius he continued, "Sirius if you hurt my son, while I may not be able to kill you, I will make you suffer."
Looking at Lucius, Sirius looked shocked for a few seconds before he said, "Lucius I swear on my life that I will never hurt Draco. I care about him too much to do that...even if we've just come together."
Nodding his head, Lucius gave a curt reply of "Good." Then he gave Draco a small proud smile and returned to his tea.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Turning his head, Harry looked at the constantly floating numbers beside his bed to check the time and was annoyed to see that it was almost three thirty in the morning. Rolling onto his stomach, Harry gave a tired sigh and buried his head underneath his pillow. Turning his head so he could breath out of the gap between his pillow and the bed, Harry closed his eyes.
He must have dozed off slightly, because the next thing he was aware of was his alarm going off although it was muffled by the pillow. Giving a groan, Harry swiped his hand out trying to stop the alarm already knowing that it would do no good since it was charmed to ring until he got out of bed.
Pushing himself up onto his hands, Harry rolled his neck and arched his back before he untangled himself from his blankets and stood up. Shuffling over to his closet, Harry pushed the doors open and looked at the clothes in front of him.
Debating on what clothes to wear, Harry reached into the closet and pulled out a pair of black leather pants and a red silk shirt. Starting to shut the doors, Harry caught sight of the leather coats that he had bought when he first left the Dursley's. Reaching back into the closet, Harry pulled out the ankle length black coat.
Laying the clothes out on the bed, Harry turned and started towards the bathroom when he stopped in his tracks. Smiling suddenly at the thought that he'd finally be wearing clothes of his own, Harry practically skipped into the bathroom to take his shower. Stripping out of his boxers and sleep pants, Harry started the shower and stepped under the spray.
Running his fingers through his shoulder length shiny black hair, Harry sighed and rolled his shoulders. Leaning his hands against the wall, he bowed his head and frowned as he remembered that Voldemort, his mate, hadn't been to the manor in the past week.
Wondering what could be keeping him away, Harry missed the first few phantom touches that ran across his back and shoulders. Almost purring in pleasure, Harry pushed his back into the caresses before he remembered where he was and that he should have been alone there.
Spinning around with a slight yelp, Harry looked around the shower then stuck his head out from behind the curtain already knowing that there wouldn't be anyone out there.
Feeling the caresses come back and run over his face and down towards his shoulders, Harry stared in shock at the empty space in front of him.
As the invisible hands slowly made their way down Harry's body, a blush started to creep onto his face.
Out of instinct at the unusual touches, Harry reached down and tried to brush the hands away as they slowly started to rub around his hardened nipples. When the hands wouldn't be stopped, Harry leaned back against the shower wall with his eyes wide.
As the hands moved away from his nipples and down towards his stomach, Harry gave a lusty moan and his eyes slowly fluttered shut. Feeling the invisible hands slide past his stomach, Harry tensed slightly when the hands started to run over his erection. Flexing his hands, Harry let his head thump against the shower wall and had to shut his eyes as the water started to run into them.
As the hands wrapped around him and gently started to work him towards his release, Harry gave a whimper that he muffled by biting at his lip. Without realizing it, Harry started to thrust forwards into the hands while biting his lip to muffle the moans that wanted to erupt from his throat.
Rolling his head back and forth against the shower wall, Harry's moans started to get louder and louder as he felt the unfamiliar heat building up inside.
"I'm glad you're enjoying yourself my mate. I look forward to doing this for real once you're ready." Voldemort whispered into Harry's mind.
Gasping out his mates name in both shock and pleasure, Harry arched his back as his release erupted and landed on the shower floor only to be washed away by the running water.
"I wait for your return over Christmas break, Harry." Voldemort whispered. Then with one last caress across Harry's face, the hands and the feeling of his mate in his mind slowly faded into the background until it was a faint blip in his thoughts.
Frowning at the feeling of loss that suddenly slammed into him, Harry rubbed at his chest where his heart was and quickly climbed out of the shower after turning it off. Grabbing his towel, Harry dried himself off as he walked back into his bedroom and quickly dressed in his clothes.
As he was about to pull his black coat on there was a knock at his door. Without turning towards the door, Harry called out for whoever it was to come in.
"Hey Harry what's taking you so long? We have to get going." Draco said as soon as he opened the door.
"Sorry I was in the shower." Harry said feeling his face heat up and mentally cursed.
Pulling his coat on, Harry then turned and was about to shrink his trunk when he stopped. Biting at his lip, Harry quickly opened the lid and moved back to his closet. Grabbing a few of the leather pants and silk shirts in there Harry carefully folded them and placed them in his trunk. Shutting the lid he then shrunk his trunk and carefully slipped it into the pocket of his coat.
"Okay, I'm ready to go now." Harry said grinning at Draco. Following Draco out of the room, Harry looked at him and opened his mouth to ask him something before he shook his head and shut his mouth.
"What is it Harry?" Draco asked giving his younger brother an amused look.
"Draco, do magical creature mates have mind links?" He asked quickly before he could talk himself out of it.
"Yeah, it all depends on the mates though. Each set of mates have a certain type of bond or link that they have. Why do you and our lord have a link forming?" Draco asked.
"Yeah, he was talking to me in my head earlier and...and I could feel him touching me." Harry said looking away his blush spreading slightly.
"So you and our lord have a mind link. Don't worry about the touching every creature can do that...it's a way to cope if they've been apart for a while." Draco said.
"That's...good to know." Harry said sounding slightly unsure of whether it was or not. "So what about you and Sirius? What kind of link do you have?" Harry asked trying to get the subject away from the touching.
Looking sad Draco said, "Unfortunately it's only creatures with full blooded mates that have a true link. I can feel where Sirius is but it's muted so much since he's just a wizard. But that's not a problem Sev thinks that he might be able to make wizards a creature just like their mate. If we can just figure out how it was that our lord was able to do it."
"Is that why we haven't really seen a lot of father and our lord lately?" Harry asked.
"I suppose it is. They won't tell me what they've been doing either. I'm assuming that it's what they're doing because they don't want to lose their mate again." Draco said with a small hidden smile at how much the family had changed since James and Harry had come into it.
"Well if the slight pain I felt when Voldemort pulled away from my mind I can imagine what they felt thinking that he was gone forever." Harry said.
Walking side-by-side towards the main entrance, they dropped into a comfortable silence.
"When we apparate to the station I'm going to have to go separately." Harry said breaking the silence.
"So no one knows where you were staying?" Draco asked.
"Exactly. I don't want Dumbledore finding out anytime soon that this is where I'm staying. There'd be no getting around a confrontation with him." Harry said sneering.
"What are you going to do when you get back to Gryffindor? Surely he won't stop calling you for meetings or dropping in to check on his 'favorite' students." Draco asked.
"I'll deal with it when it happens. Worst that can happen I 'provoke' my father into giving me detentions every night." Harry said grinning.
"Are you sure you aren't supposed to be Slytherin?" Draco asked jokingly.
"To tell you the truth...that's where the sorting hat wanted to put me in our first year. I just talked it out of putting me there." Harry said as they stepped into the main hall where Lucius, Severus, James and Sirius were already waiting for them.
Tossing Draco a grin, Harry dashed over to join his parents at the door. Giving James a hug when he got there Harry watched as Draco stopped in shock.
"I wish you could go with us to the station." Harry said pouting slightly.
"So do I Harry, if not to see you off but to keep all of those perverts from touching my baby." James said frowning at the clothes he was wearing. "Harry if your mate saw you wearing those clothes he'd kill everyone in the vicinity of you."
"Well then it's a good thing that he isn't seeing me off isn't it." Harry said trying not to deepen the pout.
"Speaking of seeing you two off we need to go so you don't miss the train." Severus said glancing at the floating numbers above the archway.
"I would appreciate it if you wouldn't molest my son in front of me Sirius." Lucius said glaring at the kissing couple.
Pulling away, Sirius brushed another quick kiss against Draco's lips then whispered something in his ear. Stepping back next to James Sirius crossed his arms and watched as the four walked out the main door and down towards the end of the wards.
When they reached the end of the wards and stepped out onto the unprotected land they stopped.
"I have to apparate directly outside of the wards at Hogwarts to be there before the students arrive, but if there is anything that either of you need don't hesitate to come and talk to me." Severus said to both Harry and Draco. Giving them both a short hug, Severus then accepted a kiss from Lucius before he apparated away.
Sharing a glance with Draco, Harry turned to their father and said, "I'm going to follow you and Draco to the station in a few seconds. I don't want anyone to start guessing the truth yet."
"Of course Harry." Lucius said placing a hand on his shoulder. "We shall see you there, and since I shall not be able to tell you there, James and I expect a letter every weekend from the both of you."
"Yes, father." Harry said with Draco echoing right behind him.
"We should get going it's getting late." Draco said.
With a nod, Lucius gave Harry a pat on the shoulder and Draco grinned at him before they both disappeared with a loud crack.
Counting to twenty, Harry decided that enough time had passed and closed his eyes focusing on the small Wizards 'tea shop' next to the train station and popped into the apparation room that had been a requirement for his license.
Glancing around the room, Harry noticed that it looked exactly the same: it was a small dusty empty room with one small window and a door across from it.
Cringing at the feeling of being trapped Harry quickly hurried from the room wiping at his forehead to brush away the sweat that had gathered there. Looking around the shop for the first time Harry was surprised to see so many of the Hogwarts students sitting around.
The shop was rather large and seemed to have three shops all together. One was a book store off to the right of the entrance to the main 'tea shop' where students were bustling around either buying books for the train ride or buying last minute supplies for Hogwarts.
To the left of the 'tea shop' was a pet menagerie that must have had a scent blocker on it to keep the natural scents from the animals from seeping into the other two stores.
Biting at his lip, Harry glanced at the floating numbers above the main register and towards the menagerie. Making a decision, Harry made his way over to the shop and stepped in. Keeping his head down to avoid being spotted by his classmates, Harry wandered around the shop.
Moving over to one of the cages, Harry squatted down and looked at the animal inside. There was a small animal inside of the cage that seemed to be a mix between a wolf and a lynx and it seemed to only be a few weeks old.
The cub was tiny and it looked as if it would fit in one of Harry's hands alone. It was a pure white color and you could tell it's mix from it's looks. It had the tail of a wolf and the ears of a lynx, both ears had extra tufts of fur sticking up on top that were pure black. The animals face was that of a wolf and it's body was tiny yet you could see the strength in it. Its eyes were an amazing bright golden color that seemed to draw you in and finally its paws seemed to be that of the lynx since it had claws that would allow the animal to climb trees if it had the need to.
"Ah it seems that you have expensive tastes." A voice said from behind him.
Tilting his head to look at the man behind him Harry said, "And why is that?"
"That there is a...well it doesn't really have a specific breed, but it's a mix between an arctic wolf and a lynx. For some reason these animals don't get bigger then the size then that one there. This one's only eight weeks old and once it bonds with a wizards it won't die until its master passes on." The man said while his mind seemed to be adding up the money he could make from this sale.
"And how much does it cost?" Harry asked glancing at the time again.
"Why that animal there is only 56 galleons, 15 sickles and 2 knuts. We're practically giving the animal away." The man said glaring at the cage.
"Is there something you're not telling me?" Harry asked noticing the look.
"The animal seems to attack those that it doesn't like." The man said lowly looking as if he had been kicked.
"And what will happen if you don't sell it?"
"Well then the beast is going to be killed." The man simply said.
As soon as he heard that Harry said, "Ring it up, I'll take him."
Grinning widely the man said, "Of course sir! And will you be needing any supplies to go with it?"
"Yeah, get me some start up food and bowls. I'll take the animal with me right now, but just have the other things delivered to Hogwarts." Harry said reaching out to take the animal after the man unlocked the cage and stepped as far back as he could.
As the animal stepped forwards and sniffed at his hand, Harry let it get used to him before he picked him up and the animal curled up against him with a soft purr rumbling through its chest.
"Who should the delivery be addressed to?" The man asked stepping up the counter.
"Have it delivered to Harry Potter." Harry said handing the man the money.
As his eyes went wide, the man started at him and started to say something but Harry cut him off.
"If I read one shred about this in the paper I won't be happy." Harry said glaring at him and smirked inside when he realized he had picked that up from his father.
"Of course sir I would never do that!" The man said looking awed that he had just helped the Harry Potter.
Rolling his eyes, Harry cuddled the animal closer and quickly stepped out of the store and headed for the main doors to make his way into the train station next door. Glancing at the clock as he entered the train station, Harry was shocked to find that he had only spent about five minutes in the menagerie.
Shrugging his shoulders, Harry made his way to platform 9 an ¾'s and quickly 'stumbled' through when there was no one around.
Noticing Draco and their father look towards him when he stepped through, Harry grinned and shrugged his shoulders before he made his way onto the train relieved to see that it was mostly empty.
Not really paying attention to where he was going, Harry walked past an occupied compartment when a pair of voices caught his attention.
"Remember Ronald, Dumbledore wants us to find out where he was this summer and report back to him as soon as we get to Hogwarts."
Stopping when he heard Hermione's voice and what she said, Harrt leaned against the wall outside of the compartment to hear what was going on.
"Relax Mione Potter's too stupid to realize that Dumbledore has us spying on him. Although I think we should be getting more then a few thousand galleons a month for spying on that prat." Ron said with, what sounded like, a mouthful of food.
"Honestly Ronald do you ever stop eating." She said sounding rather disgusted. "Besides until Potter dies that's all that the Professor can get for us. You should be grateful that Potter has that much money or else we'd be doing this for free."
"Yeah, yeah I know. But with all the whining that we hear from Potter we should be getting a vault full of money. It's always 'why didn't you write to me this summer? Or 'feel bad for me someone I care about just died'. It's so annoying." Ron said.
"Well just be ready for it today Ronald. He should be here soon, and Dumbledore wants us to find out where he was at all costs. Besides Dumbledore said that you know who is going to cause a big problem this year and that Harry will kill him and then Harry will unfortunately die." Hermione said not sounding upset at the 'death' of her friend. "Just remember Dumbledore has his will written up, just don't cause any problems and you shouldn't have to work once we graduate."
As the two started to laugh, Harry felt tears stinging at his eyes and rubbed them away with his unoccupied hand. Hearing the soft meow, Harry looked down at his new pet and smiled at the wide eyes looking at him.
"Come on Tiger let's go get a seat so I can introduce you to my brother." Harry whispered moving down the row of compartments to find an empty one far enough away from his 'friends'.
Stepping into an empty compartment, Harry dropped down onto the seat and started to stroke Tigers head.
"I hope you don't mind the name Tiger because that's what I'm calling you." Harry said softly and was rewarded with a soft purr and a lick to his hand. Smiling sadly Harry scratched Tiger under his chin and hoped that Draco came looking for him.
He was rewarded a few minutes later when his compartment door opened and Draco stuck his head in.
"Harry what's wrong you aren't with your friends." He said softly until he caught sight of the miserable look in Harry's eyes. Frowning, Draco stepped into the compartment and dropped down next to Harry on the seat. "Talk to me Harry tell me what's wrong."
Giving a scoff Harry opened his mouth and said, "They aren't real friends. They were using me to get money from Dumbledore."
'Harry...I'm sorry." Draco said wrapping an arm around Harry's side. "Well if we tell uncle Sev. I'm sure he'll give them detentions this year."
"No, they'll get themselves in trouble soon enough." Harry said smiling at the thought. "Draco I want you to meet Tiger." Harry said holding up his pet.
"Is this why you came in later?" Draco asked realizing that Harry didn't want to talk about it.
"Yeah, it's odd the store I bought him from said he doesn't really have a species that he belongs to." Harry said smiling when Tiger rubbed against Draco with a purr.
"Why don't you rest Harry. I'll wake you before we get to Hogwarts so that you can change."
Yawning at the thought of sleep, Harry nodded and let his head rest against Draco. The last thing he remembered was Tiger curling up against him and Draco promising that 'the mudblood and weasel would pay.'
