Summary: Sirius returns from behind the veil, the only problem is that he is stuck in his dog form. It’s not that he isn’t happy to be alive again; he just wants to know why he got thrown in the hands of one Lucius Malfoy and two Severus Snape.
Warnings: This will be slash later in the story. This story now seems to be heading toward LM/SB/SS. I believe that it will stick to this pairing now. :) Lucius and Severus may seem to be OOC at some points but the only reason for that is because I believe that there is more to them than meets the eye and I want to play with that possibility.

As soon as he had awoken, he was out of bed and running down the hall and stairs. His body transformed as he left the room but he paid it no mind. He was so used to it at this point he hardly gave it any thought but right now he wanted to find his godson. The thrill of being able to speak last night and the feeling of being back in control left him feeling elated and free; feelings he wanted to share with the younger man. It never occurred to him that he still might not be able to shift out of the presence of Severus or Lucius, but he knew that either way, Harry would get the message. He found Harry walking out of the dining hall in his work robes and he barked to get the others attention. Harry turned and smiled at him as he bounded over in joy, his tail wagging so fast he was slightly afraid it would fall off.
“Well someone is happy I see.”
Harry laughed and patted his head when he jumped up to rest is paws on the boys hips.
“Sorry, Padfoot, but I have to go. I am late as it is.”
He whined and jumped back on Harry when the other nudged him off. He wanted to tell Harry the good news but he couldn’t if the other left.
“I’m sorry, Padfoot. I can tell you’re excited but I really am late. How about this? You can tell me everything when I get back, alright?”
He let himself fall back to his feet with another whine and drooped his ears. Harry gave him a reassuring pat on the head then turned and walked out the door. He sighed. He wanted to share this with someone damn it. With another whine he turned back around and headed back up to the two men he had left upstairs. Waiting for Harry to get back was going to take forever. Another whine escaped his throat as he walked in the bedroom door and jumped up on the bed. Severus was no longer there, probably in the shower as he heard water running from beyond the bathroom door, but Lucius turned to look at him with sleep ridden eyes.
“Sirius? You okay?”
He couldn’t stop another whine before he transformed and crawled up to lay beside the blond. Lucius smiled softly and wrapped and arm around him comfortingly.
“Harry left before I could tell him anything.”
Merlin, did he hate his voice right now. He hated it so much that he winced himself at the sound of it. It sounded dry and gravely with a hoarse scratch to it that grated on his nerves. Lucius chuckled at his expression causing him to sulk.
“Give it time, Sirius. You haven’t used it in what, months? And the abuse it got last night probably wasn’t the best for it either.”
He couldn’t help the blush that made its way across his cheeks. He had acted like a total slut, or more accurately, a bitch dog in heat. How could he have forgotten about that? The heat in his cheeks flared as he thought about the night before. Lucius chuckled again as he hid his flaming face in his hands but carefully pried them away a few seconds later.
“It was amazing, Sirius. Don’t hide yourself away.”
The blush lessened but did not completely go away as he looked into the blond silver looking eyes. With only a moment of hesitation, he pressed his lips against the others in a soft, chaste kiss. The door opened behind them then making them turn to look at Severus as he walked out of the bathroom freshly showered and in nothing but a towel. His throat went dry instantly and he found it hard swallow as he followed a tiny water droplet down the man’s chest. Merlin, the Slytherin was beautiful. He blushed when he heard Severus scoff at him and knew the other had heard his thoughts.
“I must have really turned you brain to mush last night, Black, if you think I’m beautiful.”
He frowned and was about to rebuke Severus’ statement but Lucius beat him to it.
“He tells the truth then, Severus. Only you seem to be unable to see it as so.”
“You both are barmy.”
Severus shook his head as he began to gather up his clothes for the day. He removed himself from the bed and made his way over the dark haired Slytherin. Slowly, he wrapped his arms around the thin waist and laid his head on the slightly toned shoulder. He felt Severus stiffen under his touch and wondered why after all they had done the night previous. A nuzzle, though, was all it took to relax Severus who laid his clothes back into the drawer before turning around in his embrace. A familiar glint was back in the man’s dark eyes that he just couldn’t decipher for the life of him. He felt the whine before he could stop it and closed his eyes as a feeling of shame swept over him. He was not a dog anymore, he was human, but he just couldn’t shake the mannerisms. There was a pressure pressing him backwards so that he had to step back toward the bed. He looked at Severus as the man guided him to lie back on the soft mattress.
“It will go away with time, Black.”
He shook his head even as he felt Lucius move slightly closer and Severus settle on top of him. The two were warm against his bare skin and he felt himself start to flush at the feeling of their bare skin on his.
“I prefer Sirius, Severus.”
He winced again at the scratchy sound, which did not go by unnoticed by the two Slytherins. Severus nodded in reply.
“Very well, Sirius, and I shall find something for your throat, but in the meantime…”
A knock sounded on the door making all three of the men jump in unison. They looked at each other before Severus called out for whoever it was to state what they wanted. He blushed hotly causing the other two to smirk at him when it was Narcissa that answered.
“I know that Lucius is in there with you Severus. Tell him that the Ministry wants him back where he should be instead of in your bed.”
Her voice had a light teasing quality to it that told them that she thought of the situation as funny. He sighed in relief at that but looked questioning at Lucius as Severus moved off him again to stand beside the bed.
“Now that she mentioned it, you shouldn’t be here, Lucius.”
“I know, Severus.”
The blond sighed moving out of the bed and grabbing his robes from the chair setting at the desk. He was dressed in a couple of minutes then slowly moved toward the door.
“I just felt that something was wrong, so, I came back to check on things. Personally, I’m glad I did.”
Lucius smiled at them both before opening the door and leaving while the door shut with a soft click behind him. The silence that followed made him a little uncomfortable as he squirmed unconsciously where he was still lying on the soft sheets of the bed. He would have loved it if Severus would come back but the man moved away and began moving things about in one of the cupboards in the room. With a sigh, he heaved himself into a sitting position and found himself staring at the smooth curvature of the dark haired Slytherins back and ass. He swallowed thickly and blushed when the man turned and caught him in the act. Severus just gave him a look and shook his head as he walked over carrying a small vial.
“This will help sooth your throat. Drink all of it, I have more stored where that came from. Let me know if you need any more over the next couple weeks.”
He nodded, taking the vial and drinking down the contents in one swallow. He was surprised by the sweet taste that it had but winced as his throat began to burn. It only lasted a few seconds; however, before a cooling sensation took over. He sighed in relief and smiled softly at Severus.
“Thanks. That does help.”
And it did. The scratch of his voice was not as bad as before and there was not as much pain when he used his vocal chords. Severus started to turn but he grabbed his wrist gently making the other man stop and look back at him.
“I… We never had that talk, Severus. Now would be as good a time as any wouldn’t you think?”
He allowed Severus to pull his hand away as he thought over the proposition. There was a sigh before the man made his way back over to where his clothes had been laid out moments before.
“Exactly, what is there to talk about?”
He remained silent as he couldn’t truthfully answer the question. Lucius had wanted them to talk but he had never mentioned what it was they should be talking about. He had assumed that Severus knew. Of course he should have known that the sullen ex-professor would never volunteer information of his own accord. He sighed as he watched the other get dressed in loose fitting muggle sweats and a t-shirt. It struck him as odd for a moment, as he had never seen the man in anything but robes since he had returned, but decided to shrug it away until another time when a pair of sweats was thrown at him. He gratefully stood and put them on.
“If you have nothing to talk about then why did you bring it up?”
“Lucius thought that we should.”
He winced at the look Severus gave him and within that second he knew he had misspoken, and badly. Severus’ expression darkened and his eyes became as cold as the obsidian rock they so resembled. Severus’ voice was hard when he spoke and the words cut at him as though they were knives.
“So, you only want to talk because Lucius suggested it? You only care because Lucius suggested that you care about the greasy bat of Slytherin?”
“That’s not true, you ass.”
He whispered it but he knew the man heard him for he was keeping his mind open for the other. He had nothing to hide at this moment nor did he want to hide from the irate man before him. He did want to cower in shame but he did not want to hide.
“How can it not be true, Black? You prance about at the man’s heels like a lovesick lap dog.”
He winced at the use of his surname but glared at the other anyway. What was his problem?
“Like I haven’t tried to do the same with you. I have wanted to be near you for weeks now, almost months, but you kept shoving me away.”
“That has nothing to do with it.”
He stormed forth and grabbed the other mans wrists before he could completely turn around. They sent heated glares toward the other but Severus did not try to fight the tight grip.
“That is bullshit and you know it you stubborn snake. Why are you doing this to yourself? Why do you keep pushing me away?”
He stood silently for a bit watching how Severus’ body language betrayed his desire to keep hidden. The man had closed his eyes so tight that he was sure that they must hurt and his head had been turned down against his chest, obviously trying to hide his pained expression. The body was tense in his tight grip like the man was ready for the all out brawl that he himself did not want to have. He sighed as he remembered the hiss quality that the man said Lucius’ name with.
“What do you have against Lucius?”
Severus snapped his head back up with a glare and a growl. He pulled at the grip that was holding him.
“This has nothing to do with Lucius you stupid mutt.”
He tightened his grip and pulled Severus back to him with a growl of his own.
“I once again call bullshit, Severus, now I’m not letting you go until you calm down and speak to me.”
He wasn’t expecting the shove that came next but it sent him backwards. He kept his grip on Severus as he fell; the expression on the others face giving away that he had thought he would be let go. The back of his neck hit the edge of the bed before his ass hit the floor; the contact made worse when Severus collided against him. He groaned and closed his eyes against the pain flaring in his neck barely registering Severus moving him to a better sitting position and cradling his head in a hand. He slowly opened his eyes to see Severus still settled between his legs on his knees with one hand keeping him up and steady beside his hip.
“It truly has nothing to do with Lucius really. If you couldn’t tell when Narcissa came here this morning, our relationship isn’t as platonic as it would seem.”
“So, you are jealous of Lucius?”
He received a glare and a swat to his already battered head. He whimpered in response which made the hand go back to messaging his sore neck.
“Why would I be jealous of Lucius, you stupid mutt? I still have him even with you following about on his heels. I always will.”
“Then what….”
Severus pressed a finger to his lips and gave him another soft glare telling him to be quiet before he went back to rubbing those delicious fingers over his neck.
“I usually never stay more than a night at a time here at the manor. That night is spent with Lucius then I leave the next morning to work on the potion orders for St. Mungos. I have been here consecutively for almost half a year doing my best to keep you sane until you reached this point. I have watched you and Lucius grow closer as well as watched you get closer to me; first out of a need to keep your mind intact then out of sheer want. Then I saw your reactions with Lucius whenever you two would get close.”
A light bulb went off in his head just then and he knew Severus had noticed for he had gone quiet to let him think it through. The idiot was jealous of Lucius having him not him tailing Lucius. Severus chuckled sadly moving back to sit on his heels in front of him.
“Lucius saw you transform first. Lucius got your first kiss since you returned. Lucius got your affections and thoughts first.”
“You knew who I was first. You were the one there keeping me sane when the dog wanted control. You brought…you brought me pleasure beyond anything before Lucius even arrived.”
He blushed which made Severus smirk as he was trying to make his point. Yes, Lucius may have been a first in a lot of things but… It hit him then why the pain of Severus’ rejection the past few months had hurt him so bad; why it was that he would seek out Severus when Lucius wasn’t around even when they were at odds with each other. He had been seeking both of their company and attention from the very beginning. It now made sense why he wanted both of them last night. He had thought it was his magic but he honestly didn’t think that was all of it. His magic had been content and happy when it was only Severus. There was no pull for another until he had thought of Lucius joining them. Severus had wanted the blond man to join as well for the way that Severus had nibbled on the man’s shoulder and had even wrapped an arm around the man’s waist. There was some sort of connection between them that was even stronger now.
“It would be. Like I said last night, we are now probably bonded in some sort of way.”
“You don’t sound too happy about that.”
Severus stood and reached to pull him to his feet as well.
“Why should I? If Lucius was home last night then you would have never even thought of me.”
He growled, deep and loud almost dog like, effectively getting the others attention.
“Even if Lucius was here I would have still went looking for a cooler room to get relief from the heat that I was feeling. Sure, Lucius would have followed me to make sure I was okay, but that still wouldn’t have changed the fact that I would have come here looking for relief because I know you like a cool room. Hell, even if yours wasn’t the coolest room in the whole mansion, I would have still come here because I was looking for relief and help. The magic did not pull me here nor guide me here last night. I came here looking for you specifically. If it was only Lucius that I wanted I would have waited it out until he got home.”
A knock on the door interrupted whatever it was Severus was about to say. The man glared at the door before calling out to the person.
“Snape, is Padfoot in there with you? I promised he could talk with me when I got home.”
It was Harry. He sighed. Yes, he still wanted to speak with his godson but he felt like this would never be settled if he left now. He watched Severus sigh and close his eyes before looking over at him.
“Go speak with your whelp of a godson. I need time to think.”
Severus did not wait for him to respond before he walked to the door, opened it, and walked out. Harry stood to the side watching the man go confused but when he turned to look inside the room his face was brighter than anything he had ever seen before. He couldn’t help but smile even with the weight of the previous conversation on his mind.
“Close the door, Harry, before someone else sees and come here.”
The feel of the young man’s arms wrapping around him in a tight hug felt great enough that he thought that he could fly.

This chapter took awhile. Sorry for the wait but school has started back up again and now that I am of Senior status it will be even more stressful then before but I am going to do my best to keep the updates coming as timely as I can make them.
We have seen more of Severus in this chapter. In a way I believe that not even Severus knows how he truly feels but more of their conversation will be in the next chapter as well as a chat with young Harry.
Thanks for all the lovely reviews and double thanks for sticking with me this far! Review!!
