Chapter Eleven: Things Heat Up: Part One
“I don’t care that you are a werewolf, I have had feelings for you since the summer and I knew exactly what you were then.” Lucius told Remus.
They were standing in the living room of Salazar’s quarters arguing over whether or not they should be together. Remus was still adamant that Lucius deserved someone who wasn’t cursed with Lycanthropy, whereas Lucius was trying to tell him that Remus’ monthly transformations didn’t stop him from having feelings for the younger wizard.
The meeting for the DA had been over for a good half hour and all but Harry and his friends had left the chamber to head back to their dorms for the night. Harry decided to leave the pair to their little chat and was keeping his friends busy in the chamber preparing things for the next meeting that would occur after the houses Quidditch teams had their tryouts.
“But I don’t- “
“Remus if you say ‘I don’t deserve a mate’ I will hex you three ways from Sunday.” Lucius interrupted.
“Well what do you expect me to say? The way I was treated growing up because of something that was out of my control proved just how much I was undeserving of things. I was bitten when I was four, that has led to thirty-three years of bigotry and hatred. What child deserves that?” Remus told the blonde as he started to pace up and down in front of the fireplace.
“I had no friends and no expectations of a magical education that didn’t involve me being taught at home. When my letter came from Hogwarts I thought things would finally be looking up for me, I’d make friends and no one would suspect that I was a werewolf. I did make friends and the other students didn’t find out about me being a werewolf but once school was over they all pretty much went their own ways and no one wanted to hire a werewolf as an employee. Then the war escalated and my own friends started to think that I was a spy for Voldemort because I was a werewolf. If my own friends could think that about me then what would my family think?”
“I wasn’t even allowed to take care of my own godson after his parents died, hell I wasn’t even allowed to publicly acknowledge that I was Harry’s godfather because of being a werewolf. I tried to get custody of him but I was threatened with time in Azkaban if I didn’t stop trying to get him and Dumbledore was of no help at all. I was homeless and jobless and I had no one left.” Remus continued.
Lucius stood there and let the irate man vent, it seemed like it was a long time coming and he figured it would do Remus some good to get all his frustrations out. He never realized how difficult a life Remus had led until he had started on his little rant.
“Four years ago I finally get a break and Dumbledore offered me a job here as long as I took the Wolfsbane potion and stayed away from the students on the full moon. I finally had a chance to see Harry again and get to know him as a teenager but then I had to throw all that away by fucking up and almost killing my own godson and his friends because I was too concentrated on the innocence of Sirius and my absolute hatred of Peter to pay attention to the fact that I had forgotten to take the Wolfsbane potion because I had forgotten that it was a full moon that night.”
“I quit before the parent outrage started to pour in, I was homeless and jobless again and I was no longer able to see Harry. My best friend was on the run because he was accused of something that he hadn’t done, granted I myself thought he was guilty too but that was because there was actual evidence that showed he could be the spy whereas they thought I was one simply because of being a werewolf. Everyone I care about has turned on me at some point in my life, what would make you any different from them?”
“Because I love you, Remus. The chances of me ever leaving you willingly don’t even exist. I understand that you’ve had a hard and cruel life but I want the chance to prove to you that you do deserve everything you want, that you can have a family without having to worry about it being taken away from you just because of what you are.” Lucius told the younger man.
“I don’t know how to be any other way than I am right now.” Remus told the blonde with a look of desperation on his face.
“Then let me show you, we can go at whatever pace you want. I’m not going anywhere, Remus and I’m sure as Merlin not going to give up on what we could have together.” Lucius told him as he walked closer and rested his hands on Remus’ shoulders.
“I just want to be happy for once, I just don’t know how to be.”
“Then let me show you.”
Once those words were out of the blondes mouth he lent forward and pressed his lips against Remus’. It was a tentative kiss to start off with, just a slight touch of their lips before Lucius pulled away and looked the other man in the eyes. He saw hope and longing in them along with a hint of fear that stemmed from Remus thinking that Lucius would pull away.
“You need to let yourself be happy for once, Remus. Don’t let what people have said about you in the past ruin what you can have now.”
Any further conversation became impossible because Remus practically threw himself forward and kissed the older wizard. Maybe Lucius was right, maybe he should just let things between them progress instead of denying what both he and his creature wanted.

“What are they doing?” Harry was asked as he came back from checking on Remus and Lucius.
“Your father has Remus pushed up against a wall and they’re making out like a couple of horny teenagers.” Harry told the blonde.
“That is an image I never wanted in my head.” Draco said with a sour look on his face.
“Well, you asked so I told you.” Harry replied with a laugh.
“Where did Professor Snape go?” Pansy asked the other teen.
“He has patrol tonight so he had to leave early.” Harry replied as he started to clean up the training dummies they had been using.
“Tonight went pretty well for the first meeting, not as many people turned up as I thought would.” Draco added to the conversation.
“Yeah, I noticed that too. They may turn up at the next meeting, we won’t know till next Saturday night. The twins will be here with some of their new gadgets for us to try out.” Harry told the three others in the chamber.
“How long do you think they are going to be in there? I have homework I need to do.” Pansy asked as she looked at the open door that lead to Salazar’s quarters.
“Let’s go find out, shall we?” Harry asked as he started towards the entrance to the rooms.
Harry slowly walked into Salazar’s chambers to see whether or not his godfather was still acting like a horny teenager with Draco’s father. Upon entering the living room, he found it to be empty, they must have left for Remus’ quarters.
“All clear, they seem to have left.” Harry told them as he grabbed his robe from the chair he had been using.
“Great, let’s get going.” Draco mumbled as he got up from his seat and started to head out.
“At least they went back to Remus’ quarters instead of just getting it on in the living room.” Harry reassured the blonde as the three of them left the chamber to head back to their dorm.
“Now that I would like to see.”
“Pansy! What the hell?” Draco yelled as he stared horrified at the girl.
“What? I’m just being truthful, your dad is really good looking and Professor Lupin is pretty easy on the eyes too.” Pansy defended as they walked through the dungeons towards the Slytherin common room.
Harry cracked up at the look on the blonde’s face at Pansy’s reply, Draco’s horrified look at the prospect of anyone finding his father sexually attractive was rather hilarious. He was happy that his father had finally managed to get Remus to admit his feelings for him but he really didn’t want to know about the details.

The following morning found the seventh year Slytherin’s watching the Gryffindor table surreptitiously, specifically the section of table that had the two youngest Weasley’s sitting there.
Harry had sent off a letter to the twins explaining the situation and they had immediately sent Harry a package containing three potions and a piece of parchment with instructions on it. Harry had jumped at the chance to get back at the two red heads and had tasked Dobby with the job, the hyperactive elf had jumped at the chance to help the young wizard and took the potions with his usual enthusiasm.
Now all they had to do was wait for the potions to take effect, Harry wasn’t sure what they would do, all he knew was that Fred and George had given him strict instructions about what order to add them to the drinks.
While the Slytherin’s waited for the results of the potions, Severus had been spending most of breakfast surreptitiously watching Harry as the younger wizard ate his breakfast. He was curious as to why Harry was paying so much attention to the Gryffindor table, as well as why Dumbledore seemed to look rather pleased.
Severus had looked away from Harry long enough to take a mouthful of his rather strong coffee before he looked back up just in time to see Harry spit his mouthful of pumpkin juice clear across the table before he broke out into raucous laughter soon followed by the rest of the seventh year Slytherin’s. Looking over to the Gryffindor table, where their attention seemed to be drawn, Severus noted the new added features to the two youngest Weasley’s and it took all his mental stretch to prevent himself from busting out a laugh himself.
In place of Ronald’s normal ears were two long furred ears that stood up on top of the boy’s head. If memory served, Severus believed them to be the ears most commonly found on Donkey’s and his face was slightly covered in grey fur. The same had occurred to the Weasley girl, the only difference being her fur colour, a light dirty brown colour.
The other house tables had started to notice the ruckus and had started to look around for the source when Ginny Weasley jumped up from the table and ran from the hall screaming. The twins had come up with a way for their little brother to make an arse of himself, literally. The boy’s face was so red Harry was wondering when it was going to blow, without saying a word the red head rose from his seat and stormed out of the hall leaving most of the student body in stitches as they got a look at the short stubby tail that had started to sprout from his tail bone.
“Remind me to send the twins a thank you letter, that was rather classic.” Harry said as he finally calmed down after Ron had left.
“What else is supposed to happen?” Pansy asked the bespectacled boy.
“From what Fred and George would tell me about the potions, they are a sort of slow release reaction. For every derogatory word either of the m spout, whether it be about a student or teacher, a new feature will show itself. That part kind of threw me when I read it because they didn’t exactly say what the potions were going to do.” Harry explained as he went back to eating his breakfast, still unaware of his house heads intense gaze focused upon him.
“Those two are genius, I’d love to know how they come up with this sort of stuff.” Blaise added to the conversation.
“I don’t think anyone knows how their brains work, it would probably be an impossible task to accomplish. I heard once heard Mrs. Weasley saying that she wished that they would use their evil genius for something far more productive than a joke shop but I’m pretty sure the lecture went in one ear and straight out the other like everything involving them being serious usually does.” Harry told them.
“The wizarding world is going to be in for a major shock if either of them ever spawn any offspring.” Draco added.
“The world would be at their mercy.”

By the time dinner had rolled around, both younger Weasley’s were sporting new features. According to Hermione they had some rather choice words to say about Harry during their little self-imposed quarantine in the Gryffindor common room. The pair had sequestered themselves in the common room after breakfast and had refused to go to any of their morning classes until Professor McGonagall had turned up and proceeded to deduct points and issue them both with a weeks’ worth of detention for missing their classes.
Ron had ended up with his teeth growing bigger and looking more like a donkeys as he mumbled under his breath about how much of a bitch McGonagall was for giving him detentions. Ginny, on the other hand, wisely kept her mouth shut once she noticed her brothers new added feature. Of course that didn’t last long once she started in on her usual spiel about why Harry had yet to succumb to the potion she was having put into his pumpkin juice.
The pair had even tried to get themselves a sick pass from Madam Pomphrey but she had just rolled her eyes at the two and told them to leave before she called their head of house to the infirmary to deal with them. All this was done with the mediwitch trying to keep a straight face at the state of the two.
Severus, of course, didn’t hold back with his taunts when it came to the seventh years’ potions class after lunch, he took great pleasure in bringing up the red heads misfortune every chance he got. He also turned a deaf ear whenever another student would make braying sounds at the boy.
All in all, the day went rather badly for the two Weasley’s and Harry was looking forward to see what changes the next day would bring.

Voldemort sat on his ornate throne in the large receiving room inside his manor, waiting for Wormtail to return with Bellatrix. He knew the woman was beyond mental but she would do perfectly in his revenge on Lucius for his betrayal.
Twenty-six years. Twenty-six years that man had been spying on him with Voldemort being none the wiser, which meant the blonde aristocrat had been Dumbledore’s little information bitch since Lucius had been indoctrinated into the Death Eaters when he was eighteen.
He had noticed the blonde being sneakier than he usually was, he just thought it was because of the young Malfoy’s refusal to take the mark. When Voldemort had found out that the young Malfoy heir had run away he had Wormtail follow Lucius to see if the man’s son would turn up. He wasn’t expecting for Wormtail to find out that his right hand man was the one to orchestrate the boy’s disappearance, nor was he expecting to find out the reason why.
He had a cell in the dungeon all set up for the blondes extended stay, he was planning on torturing for as long as he could. He had twenty-six years’ worth of pain to inflict and he wanted to make it last.
“My Lord, you called for me?” Bellatrix called as she entered the room.
“It has come to my attention that one of my most faithful followers has been spying on me since they first joined.” Voldemort informed his psychotic follower.
“Who is it, Master?” Bellatrix asked as she moved closer to the Dark Lord.
“Lucius.”
“Lucius? For sure I thought it would be Snape, what with him being in Dumbledore’s hip pocket and all.” She questioned.
“Wormtail has been following him around since his son disappeared this summer. He found out that Lucius had orchestrated his son’s disappearance to keep him from joining the Death Eater ranks. Wormtail followed Lucius to Hogwarts and listened in on a meeting that occurred between Dumbledore and Lucius.”
“What do you want me to do?”
“I want you to find him, he is staying somewhere that Wormtail was unable to access. The wards are preventing him from entering to see what is being hidden. Once you have found him I want you to bring him here, I have plans for my wayward follower and I will have my revenge.”
“Of course, my Lord. I will leave immediately.” Bellatrix said as she bowed to Voldemort before retreating from the room, her usual sadistic smirk spreading across her face.

“How are your studies going?” Severus asked his godson as the blonde sat down in the chair in front of his desk.
“They’re going rather well, I’m second in every class except for Defence and Arithmancy. Who knew Harry would be so good at Arithmancy? Defence I expected but he’s sped his way to the top of the class and we’re only two months into the school year.” Draco replied.
“He wasted four years on Trelawney’s class, I never understood why he picked that class. That woman is nothing more than a hack.” The potions master said as he pulled another parchment in front of him.
“He thought the class would be a good bludge, didn’t much like it after Trelawney started predicting his death in every lesson.” Draco said with a chuckle.
“The boy may be good looking but he can be rather dense sometimes.” Severus said aloud, unaware that he had done so.
“Say what now?” Draco almost shouted once the words his godfather had let slip registered.
Severus jumped at the sudden rise in the blonde’s voice and wondered what for until realisation set in and he looked at his godson with a look akin to a dear caught in the headlights of an oncoming truck. Schooling his features, the dark haired wizard looked away from Draco and started marking the homework parchments in front of him.
“Na Uh, you are so not going to act as if those words didn’t leave your mouth. You have the hots for Harry.” Draco told the man.
“I have no idea what you are blathering on about.”
“Yes you do, I clearly heard you say that Harry was good looking. I’ve noticed the looks, Sev, I’m not blind. Even Blaise has seen the way your eyes tend to linger on a certain part of the Boy Wonders anatomy as he walks away.” Draco said to the man as he reached across the desk and removed the quill from his godfathers clenched fist.
“I do not stare.”
“There is no point in denying it, you are smitten for Harry.”
“Nothing will ever come of my feelings for the boy, Draco. The point is moot, someone like him would never want someone like me so just drop it.” The dour man finally snapped and shouted at the boys sitting across from him.
“You’re in love with him, aren’t you?”
“Just let it go, please.”
“Okay, Sev. I’ll drop it, for now, but don’t think that I am going to stay quiet for long. If anyone deserves happiness, it sure as hell is you.” With those final words Draco rose from his seat and exited the office, leaving Severus to stare blankly at the desk top lost deep in thought.

Lucius had the distinct feeling that he was being watched the instant he had entered Diagon Alley. He was sure where the person doing the watching was, but he could feel the tiny hairs on the back of his neck standing at attention as though in warning to an appending attack.
He had left Remus at the castle so he could pay a visit to his family vault, with every intention of getting out his great – grandmothers betrothal ring that he had had the forethought to not give to his soon to be ex-wife. He had every intention of having the rings many charms, that his rather over protective great-grandfather had put upon it, renewed and have a few more added. Thankfully, the ring was made from white gold so he didn’t need to worry about accidently poisoning his lycanthrope mate.
Lucius was only a few feet away from the steps when all of a sudden his world started to spin and he felt the tell tail jerk of a portkey activating, the last thing he heard was the maniacal cackling of his deranged sister-in-law. The portkey dumped him out in a dark room that smell of damp and mildew, he knew where he was without needing a light source to help his vision.
The blonde just knew that somehow Voldemort had discovered his treachery and had employed the help of his most loyal and psychotic follower to catch him. What he didn’t know was how the megalomaniac of a Dark Lord had discovered him. He knew from previous encounters like this that Voldemort would make him stew for a couple of days before starting on the torture, hopefully he would be found before then, he wasn’t too keen on being tortured to near death before being healed and then having it happen all over again.

“It has been done, my lord. He has been transported to one of the cells in the dungeon.” Bellatrix informed Voldemort.
“Very good, Bella. Do not inform anyone of these events, I will call a meeting after I have paid a visit to our guest.”
The insane woman gave a maniacal grin as she bowed and then backed out of the room. Wormtail was still in a snivelling mess on the floor in front of the Dark Lord, he had to of done something to incur the wrath of the snake like man. The thought made the grin on her face grow as she started to skip down the hall cackling as she went.
