After watching Bellatrix writhe on the floor and then become still, Harry turned to his friends and family. First thing he noticed was that Ginny was still in his uncle's arms crying. Next, he noticed Draco was sitting on the floor trying to help Fred, who was being held protectively in his twin's arms. Hermione was sitting on the floor, exhausted; Remus kneeling beside her making sure there was no damage. The entire room flared as Harry's eyes landed on Severus. The potions master was covered in cuts and bruises; one large one covering most of the right side of his face. The Slytherin Heir quickly covered the short distance to his mate. Raising his hand, he gently stroked his love's face healing it completely. Before he could remove his hand, Severus grabbed him by the wrist and placed a gentle kiss on Harry's palm then whispered, "Thank you."
"Harry, will you release Goyle from the wall now? Surely, your uncle has a suitable place to put him." Remus asked from across the room. Harry was so engrossed in Severus that he hadn't noticed when his godfather walked over.
"Remy, I would love to put the bastard where he belongs. However, I am not the one holding him." Harry simply stated.
"If not you, then who?"
"Me" was snarled from somewhere close to the door. Everyone turned to see Lord Voldemort, darkest wizard of all time, gently placing a sobbing 16 year old girl on a pillow he had conjured for her. All in the room, save for one, were surprised at the look of adoration on the face of this 'evil' man. Harry had known for a bit now that his adopted sister was in fact his uncle's life mate.
"But...how? What happened in that alcove?" Hermione asked from her spot on the floor.
"Yes, Uncle Tom, what happened in the alcove?" Harry bitterly asked his uncle, not forgetting the man's hesitation that could have cost Ginny her virtue and life.
Tom slowly got to his feet, obviously reluctant to leave the young lady's side, and approached Harry and reach ing out, placed his hand on Harry's arm just above the elbow. "My ASP, please do not be angry with me. When I saw what they were doing, I froze. Memories flooded my mind and I froze. They mentioned a spell that Bellatrix taught them, and if I am correct, and I am certain that I am it was the same spell The Bastard used on your grandmother when he stole her magic. In which case, Miss Weasley is in grave danger." Tom was visibly saddened by his own words.
"NO! I will not allow that to happen. To use that spell, the victim has to be raped by the caster of the spell. All we have to do is keep the shithead away from Ginny." Harry gave his uncle a pleading look. His eyes begging him to tell him it was that easy.
Tom lowered his gaze to the floor before speaking in an almost whisper. "If only it were that easy. Although that is what most people want you to believe, it is not how it is. When the victim is raped their magic is absorbed by the person violating them, caster or not, making them magically stronger. The spell has been cast on her; there is no way to reverse it. She will keep her magic as long as she is untouched sexually. Unfortunately, as soon as she does have sex, with anyone, she will be turned into a muggle."
"What?! You can't be serious! Harry, please tell me he is joking?" George begged of his friend. At the devastated look on Harry's face, George went on. "Well, fine then. We lock her up where no one can ever touch her. Why not here? Away from everyone. No one would ever try to get to her here in the Dark Lord's hideout." George was sobbing by the time he finished.
"That could never work." Tom said still looking at the floor in front of Harry.
"Why not?" Harry asked not understanding why his uncle was saying no without even thinking about it.
"Simple. I would still be here." Tom softly spoke. "I would be here and the pull would be too strong, and we would bond and then...." Tom slowly raised his head to look at his nephew. Harry gasped at the tears streaming down his uncle's cheeks. "I would destroy her." Tom's legs gave out as he spoke those last words. He hit his knees, now openly crying for the one he loves that he can never have or she will die, by his own hand.
"You bastard son of a bitch!" George yelled at the man on the floor. Feared dark lord or not, that's his sister and no one was going to do anything to her. "How could you do that to her? Can't you find a whore to satisfy your lust?" Before George even finished speaking, Lord Voldemort had his hand around his throat. He applied just enough pressure to get his point across as he spoke. "It is not wise to suggest I seek one besides my mate. I have waited a very long time to find her; now that I have her, there will be no other. EVER!"
"Will someone please tell me what the fuck is going on?" Fred asked from his position on the floor, his head cradled in, of all people, Draco's lap.
"You are of a Pureblood family, yes? Being a branch of one, you know of the most powerful of those families having life mates? Your brother has just insulted the most powerful of all those families." Severus quickly shifted to professor mode.
"How is he the most powerful?" Fred asked indicating Tom, who was standing beside Ginny once again.
"He is the Head of the Riddle and Slytherin Families." Harry answered.
"So, you're telling me that OUR baby sister is the life mate to the one and only Lord Voldemort?" George asked a little shaken up from his earlier encounter with said man.
"Precisely, Mr. Weasley." Severus answered. "Is that a problem?"
"What? Um, no. but it is..."
"Wicked!!!" Both twins said together.
"Great. Now, that we know there is no problem; especially considering the circumstances, perhaps we could take these two to the dungeons and dispose of Auntie Bella's corpse." Draco suggested as he slowly made his way to Fred. Harry decided he would need to find out what that was all about later.
"What are you talking about, Draco? Bellatrix isn't dead. She's just had her magic stripped from her for willfully disobeying her Head of Family. I gave her the opportunity to obey. She chose her own fate. It's not like she doesn't deserve it for what she was doing to the twins and for what she told those two to do to Ginny." Harry casually stated.
"Your right, Asp. It is all Bellatrix' fault, isn't it?" Tom said as he got an evil glint in his eye. "And now she has no magic." Tom was slowly raising his wand, several deadly curses coming to mind.
"Harry, quick! The compulsion spells!" Hermione yelled at her friend. Harry turned just in time to see Tom level his wand at Bellatrix' unconscious form and sent the most powerful stunner he could at his uncle to stop him. The man collapsed to the floor, never knowing what hit him. "Hermione will you see about Ginny, please? Make sure she's not harmed physically. Fred and George, you help. Remy and Sev levitate these three to the dungeons and put them in the coldest and darkest cell there is. Draco, go with them and ward the cells with your blood. You know the spell to use. We've practiced it before." Harry had slipped into leader mode.
"But, Harry, you know..." Draco started to protest.
"NOW! All of you go." Harry yelled as he walked over to his uncle. He wanted to make sure he hadn't hurt the man he had grown to love dearly.
"Yes, My Lord" was chorused by four of them, while the other two looked on completely flabbergasted. Severus crossed the room and placed a loving kiss on Harry's lips; turned and followed Remus and Draco while levitating Bellatrix out of the room; 'accidentally' bumping her into the door frame with a malicious smile.
"What, in the hell, was that just about?" The twins asked in unison.
"Well, Harry, do you want to explain while I tend to Ginny?" Hermione smirked at the Slytherin Heir.
"Of course. You see guys; I am the Lord Voldemort's nephew and Heir. My training is nearly complete and we were merely waiting until it was to make the formal announcement to the followers." Harry went on to explain everything that happened since his birthday to the two. When he finished, he looked at the twins for their reaction. They sat stony faced, then looked at each other and smiled. Jumping up they walked over to Harry and dropped to their knees. "How may we serve you, Your Majesty? Your wish is our command." Each one grabbed a hand and started kissing Harry's arms from knuckles to elbow and back again.
"WHAT, EXACTLY, IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!?!?!?!" They all turned to see a very angry Severus standing in the doorway glaring at the twins.
"Calm down, Sev. They were only teasing. After my, and your, display, they wanted to know what was going on. So, I told them and this is what happened." Harry explained opening his arms wide to indicate what the twins were doing.
A soft moan from the floor brought everyone back to the here and now. Harry quickly knelt down beside his uncle. He hesitated before helping the man.
"It's alright, my ASP. Thank you." Tom said as he noticed Harry's hesitation and the uncertainty in his eyes. "Why don't we have a light lunch and then call a meeting for supper? It seems I am remiss in my duties as a Dark Lord. Our followers need reminding of a few details."
Harry called for a house elf to bring lunch for the nine of them. Even though he didn’t really think Ginny would be to eating any time in the near future.
“So, Remy, how is it that you are brothers with the ‘luckiest man in existence for getting to shag Harry Potter’?” George asked, smirking at the growl that came from Severus and the blush on Harry’s face.
“Awww, look, Herms. Isn’t he sooooo cute when he turns that pretty shade of red?!” Fred cooed to Hermione who was having trouble keeping a straight face, so she buried it in Remus’ chest.
“Not quite as cute as you.” Hermione heard whispered from her other side, snapping her head to give Draco a quizzical look.
Draco gave her a pleading look. At her slight nod, he gave a small shrug of his shoulders. Along with a sly wink that promised they would talk later.
“I do not find this topic of discussion remotely amusing. Mr. Weasley, you would do well to remember that such comments are highly inappropriate to be spoken to MY lifemate.” Severus glared at both twins when he spoke their surname.
“Oh lighten up, Sev. They were only teasing, It’s what friends do, ya know!” Harry defended his friends and followers. But also appeased his mate by sitting in his lap and snuggling into his chest.
“This behavior is…”
“Shut up, Severus. Remus is going to tell everyone how the two of you are brothers.” Harry cut Severus off before he could get going. To his shock, Severus did just that.
“Thank you, Harry. Now, as you all know, Tobias Snape was married to Eileen Prince. What you may not know is that he was also a violent and abusive drunk.” Remus looked up at Severus and gave him a sympathetic smile. “On one of his many binges, he was boasting about his wife being with child. A couple in the pub overheard him and decided to buy him drinks. A lot of drinks. You see, the man was unable to give his wife a child, so they had decided to find a random person to ‘help’ them out”
“Tobias never knew. One of the reasons he gave for beating my mother was because she never gave him any more children. When it was the drink that stopped him from giving them to her.” Severus whispered to help out his brother.
“I only found out after I was attacked by Greyback. They were fighting; my mother was afraid my dad would leave because of it. He never did, though. Loved me like I was his. I’m sorry, Sev. This was when my parents explained to me what had happened and why. They knew his name and heritage and everything else about the Snapes. Being one of THE families, it was easy to track Severus as we grew up. When we came to Hogwarts, I found him and told him everything I knew. We all became friends until…Dumbledore fucked everything up.” Remus explained to his captive audience.
“Great. On a different note; Harry, who else from the group are here? “ Asked Fred.
“You guys and Hermione. I haven’t been in contact with anyone else. I’ve missed all of you so much.” Harry said as he stood up, walked over to his friends and hugged them both. Getting glares from Severus and Draco. And giggles from Hermione, Remus and Tom. Ginny was currently asleep with her head in Tom’s lap as he stroked her hair.
“Oh yeah!” Harry suddenly yelled. He conjured two robes, exact replicas of the ones Hermione and Remus had on.
“Wear these at all times while you are out of your rooms. They signify that you are one of my Heir’s followers. No Death Eater will harm you.” Tom told the twins as Harry handed them the robes.
“Yes, My Lord.” was chorused by the two as they bowed.
.
Several hours and many conversations later:
“My followers, we have gathered again so soon because it would seem that some do not wish to follow my rules and orders. I admit that I have been a little…preoccupied with training my Heir. However, orders are orders. Once given they are to always be followed. No matter how you much you dislike them. Or you will be punished. If ANY rule is broken, the punishment is severe.
It is for this reason, we are gathered. There are three who will be punished tonight. However, I was not the only one wronged. Therefore, mine will only be part of the punishment.” Lord Voldemort informed those gathered around.
“Shall we be…” He was interrupted as the door swung open to reveal a very s mug looking Severus Snape.
“My apologies, My Lords. I have retrieved that which you requested.” Severus stated with a smirk as he bowed his head in respect.
“You have done well, Severus. This meeting will continue upon our return. Come my Heir.” Voldemort stated and left the room with a flourish, closely followed by Harry.
Harry glanced curiously towards his uncle, who was smiling maliciously as they followed Severus to another room. ‘What the hell is going on’ he thought as they entered the room to find the most surprising person pacing by the fire. As he heard the others enter the room, said person looked up from the floor and made his way to Harry hugging him.
“Oh Harry! You are alive. And you appear unhurt. I didn’t want to believe him when he said you were OK. Everyone knows You-Know-Who took you from Gringotts. Dumbledore said. Then Professor S-Snape came to me and said he could bring me to you and that you were ‘quite well, indeed.’ ”
“Yes, as you can see, I am. But, Nev , I do need to breathe sometime soon.” Harry chuckled at his friend’s enthusiasm. Turning to his beloved he asked, “Why did you bring Neville here? And why now?”
Severus came up to where the two were standing and pulled Harry into his arms so they were facing each other.
“Harry, do you remember all your heritage lessons?” at Harry’s nod, he continued. “Specifically, the families that you are the Head of; the ones that you are responsible for righting the wrongs done to them.” Severus looked meaningfully at Harry.
“That still doesn’t explain why Nev …OHHH! Bellatrix.” Harry finally caught on.
“Precisely, my ASP. Being the Head of the Gryffindor and Heir of the Slytherin bloodline, you are responsible for exacting revenge on those that have wronged your family.” Tom confirmed to his nephew.
“I understand, Uncle.” Harry replied.
Neville looked on in bewilderment as two of the most feared men in the wizarding world talked to his fellow Gryffindor. One like he was family ‘did harry just call you-know-who, uncle’ and the other like he was…Neville really did NOT want to think of Snape that way. EVER. So, he did the only thing he could. He passed out.
“Well, that went better than I expected it would” chuckled Severus.
“Maybe if you hadn’t been holding me in your arms, he would have taken it better.” Harry gave Severus a quick peck on the lips before removing himself from his love’s arms and tending to his friend.
“Enervate” Harry said as he waved his hand over Neville’s still form. Within minutes, he was helping his friend onto a near by sofa.
“Sorry ‘bout that, Nev. I guess it is a little much to take in all at once. Remus and Hermione…”
“Y-you mean they’re here. Dumbledore said that Death Eaters attacked the Granger’s house and Hermione was taken and was most likely dead. He also said that Professor Lupin’s wolf had gone feral with the loss of his mate and no one knew where he was. Obviously, that was not true. I KNOW you wouldn’t lie to me, Harry.”
“Very good, Mr. Longbottom.” Severus said from his spot near Tom.
Neville looked at his Potions professor with a shy smile until he noticed who was with him. Then, he paled and slumped back in his seat.
Harry looked over to the two people he cared the most for in this world and couldn’t help the smile that graced his face. That is until he got ‘The Look’ from his uncle; meaning he was neglecting his duties.
“Sorry. Neville Longbottom; Head of the Longbottom family, sub-descendant of the Slytherin bloodline, I would like to introduce the Head of the Riddle and Slytherin families, Mr. Tom Marvolo Riddle. My great uncle on my mother’s side.”
“It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Mr. Longbottom.” Tom said as he crossed the room to shake the young man’s hand in greeting.
“Um, likewise, sir.” Neville replied. It was quite obvious that Neville had had some of the same training Harry himself was almost finished with. But, Neville looked a little confused. Ok. A lot confused.
“Harry, why don’t you inform your friend of the events of the summer? Severus, chess?” Tom casually suggested.
“Of course, My Lord.” Severus replied as the two made their way to the small table that was actually an elaborate chess board.
“Brace yourself, Nev ” was the only warning the young man had before his friend began telling him things that would forever change his life.
Not quite an hour had passed when Harry finished his tale. Neville looked between Harry, the Dark Lord and his most feared professor in utter shock. When he finally regained his composure, he faced Harry.
“So, why was I brought here?” Neville asked. “Not that I don’t appreciate being here and seeing Harry well, mind you. But…why me?”
“Fifty points to Gryffindor for bravery…or sheer stupidity. Not many have ever questioned why the Dark Lord does anything that he does. Those that dare have been severely punished for their disrespect.” Severus sneered at his former student.
“Now, Severus, we all know that he is terrified of you. Stop scaring him.” Harry chastised his love as he approached the man and kissed him full on the mouth. Surprising Neville.
“Mr. Longbottom, may I call you Neville?” at the young man’s nod, Tom continued, “Neville, you are part of the Slytherin family. Harry is Heir and I am Head of the Slytherin Family. One of our prisoners has wronged you in the most extreme way. This same person has also wronged some of Gryffindor sub-descent. One of these people, however, also happens to be the lifemate of the Head of Slytherin and Riddle. Therefore, punishment falls to those lines for punishment. It also falls to the Head of the Black family to decide the fate of the transgressor, as she was of Black Blood.”
Tom turned to face his nephew. “Harry, as Head or Heir to all four families involved, I give you the task of deciding the punishment of Bellatrix.” He finished.
Harry looked at his uncle long enough to see that he was sincere in this. Then, he turned his attention to Neville. As soon as eye contact was made, Harry knew what he was going to do.
“Please excuse us, Uncle. Severus.” Harry said still looking at Neville.
Severus and Tom went to leave the two young men alone to talk in private. As they opened the door, Harry called out “Have the prisoners brought to the dining room. We will be right there.”
Severus looked at Tom and could see the pride shining in his eyes for his Heir. Harry was becoming a strong leader.
After the other two had shut the door behind them, Neville relaxed some.
“How many others from our little group are here, Har? Don’t worry, I will take whatever mark you decide to give me, just remember, we follow you and no one else.” Neville informed his unofficial leader.
“Hermione, as you’ve already been told. Fred and George arrived earlier with G-ginny.” Harry couldn’t help the stumble over his friends name. He was still upset about what had almost happened to one of his true friends.
Neville noticed.
“Harry, what’s wrong with Ginny? And don’t you dare tell me ‘nothing’!’ Neville demanded.
Harry then explained what had happened earlier when the Weasleys had arrived. He could see the anger and hatred in his normally timid friend as he went into the finer details of Ginny’s ‘situation’.
By the time Harry finished, Neville was pacing in front of the door.
“I’m happy she has someone to love her no matter what happens. Oh gods, Harry! The compulsion spells. They’ll make him kill her if they ever consummate the bond, How…”
“Easy, Neville. She is in a room warded by my blood, a unique mix, I must say. Only those I allow can enter. So far, her brothers and ‘Mione. We are working to solve the problem.”
“All my life, I have wanted to see that bitch dead for what she did to my family; after what you just told me, I want to see her suffer first, then beg for death.” Neville had a very startling glint in his eyes.
“So glad to hear you say that, Nev. That task will fall to you.” Harry said as he conjured robes like Hermione, Remus, Fred and George’s, handing them to his latest recruit.
Neville quickly put on the robe and drew up the hood concealing his face.
“Lead the way, My Lord.”
