The next morning Hermione awoke and stretched, before wincing as pain ran through her lower body. She looked around and noticed Draco was not in bed, and instantly started to panic. She called out for him and the bathroom door opened, revealing the blond smiling back. He was already dressed in his slacks and his shirt was missing. He grinned as he walked over, sitting next to her.
“Morning beautiful” he said, leaning over to kiss her on the cheek.
“You had me worried for a second” she said, wrapping her arms around his neck.
“You were afraid I had been scared off?” he asked and she nodded, “Mia, last night was amazing. I don't regret any of it. Do not think like that. I wasn't in bed because I received a note from Alex requesting I come see her before breakfast alone, and since last night was your first time I thought you'd like to have a bath this morning to help. I mixed in a couple healing potions with the water as well”
“That does sound lovely” she said and yelped when he picked her up bridal style, “Draco! I'm still naked!”
“Perfect! Then you're ready for the bath” he said, carrying her into the bathroom where the massive tub was already full of steaming water and bubbles. He slowly lowered her into the water, and she sighed as she felt the healing potions sink in through her skin, sitting on one of the stairways on the edge. He leaned over and kissed her with a smile again, before standing up and finishing getting dressed. Once he had his shirt and tie on and his hair was the way he wanted, he turned back to her and placed his hands on the edge of the tub, leaning over and kissing her shoulder, “I've got to go, but I'll see you in Transfiguration.”
“Be careful” she called behind him as he pulled on his cloak and walked out of their dorms, leaving her to her bath.
Draco walked down to Alex's classroom but found that the door was locked. He shook his head and went to go to her rooms when he noticed Potter, Weasley, and Ginny were all walking down to breakfast. He looked around and noticed they were alone, before calling out to them.
“Potter!” the three turned and looked at him as he stepped closer, “Alex sent a note requesting me to meet her in her office this morning and I checked the classroom, but she isn't there. Do you know where she is?”
“Right behind you” he said, pointing down the hall and he turned and saw Alex was standing at the corner waiting for him.
“Where's Hermione at Malfoy?” Ginny asked and he looked back at her.
“She'll be down soon. She was taking a bath when I left” she nodded and looked around before turning back to him.
“She finally got away from you?” Ron said under his breath and Draco glared at him.
“Keep your voice down Weasley, or the entire school is going to hear about you liking Parkinson” he growled.
“I do not!” he yelled, getting the attention of a few students down the hall.
“Could have fooled me with how much you were staring at her when we were on the train” Draco said and the redhead's face turned beet red.
“You're going to regret that Malfoy!” Ron instantly pulled his wand, but before he could say a spell they hear a yell.
“Mr. Weasley do I need to repeat my statement from yesterday?” Alex called down the hall and Ron instantly put his wand away, “Mr. Malfoy, we had a meeting this morning and currently you are late. So if you are done, please follow me.”
He looked back at the Gryffindors before rushing over to the older witch. They continued walking until they got to the entrance way and she led him outside. Once there she handed him something wrapped in a napkin and he noticed it was a breakfast sarnie. He thanked her, taking a bite of it as he noticed her eating one of her own.
“I know what happened last night” Alex stated and he immediately stopped to look at her, “I didn't read your mind Draco. The entire castle is in an uproar today. You two set off three wards last night that haven't been triggered for nearly a hundred years.”
“Do they know what caused it?” he asked and she shrugged.
“Dumbledore does, but most other staff are oblivious” she said, taking a bite of her sandwich, “You took the potion though right?”
“Yes, I took the potion.”
“I know I'm one of the last people you would want to have this talk with, but I felt it was better I talk to you rather than Snape or Dumbledore seeing as I already knew about how close you were with Hermione so far.”
“Is it normal to feel your creature blood have an urge to take over?” asked and she started coughing, before looking at him.
“What?”
“Last night” he paused, coming up with a better way to say it, “We both felt the urge to let ourselves go. To let the creature inside us both out and let it control us.”
“It depends on the creature. If one of the two mates is extremely powerful then they will feel the urge. It is very rare both of them will. Did either of you notice the flash of light?” she asked and he shook his head, making her smirk “You two must not have been looking at the time, but there was a massive flash of light. The entire castle was illuminated.”
“What does it mean?” he asked, taking a bite of his sandwich.
“The two of you finished the second part of your mating, but at the same time, you created such a huge light, that it lit up the entire castle. I felt the power from it and Dumbledore came by this morning asking if I knew what had happened. From here on out you'll actually be able to sense Hermione and how she is feeling slightly now, if you concentrate hard enough.”
“That explains this morning” he said, explaining when she looked puzzled, “This morning I thought subconsciously that it might be best if she took a hot bath with some healing potions to help with the pain since it was her first time.”
“She was a virgin?” he nodded and she cursed under her breath, “The potion may not have been enough.”
“What?!” he yelled, “What do you mean by that?!”
“If she lets the creature take control fully she can negate the potions. At any time did she start talking in an unknown language?” she asked.
“No, I remember I did, but I know she didn't. Why?”
“You did but not her?” he nodded and she sighed in relief, “You should be fine, but she needs to go to Pomfrey this weekend and get a pregnancy test to confirm if she is or not. Also, under no circumstances are you and her to let both of your creatures take full control. What happened last night cannot happen again. Sex is fine, but no letting the creatures take control. If the succubi in her does, it will be very likely that she gets pregnant.”
“I understand but why not go to the Hospital wing today?”
“If she misses classes or is not there for dinner then the entire school will notice. Not only that, but the spell doesn't detect until at least three days after intercourse” she said, finishing her sandwich, “So Weasley and Parkinson eh?”
“I know, weird combination but I think she likes him as well. She's always gone out of her way to torment him when she could” he said, just as the bell rang.
“Finish eating and get to class quickly Draco. I'll come by later this afternoon to discuss what I wanted to speak to you about the other day.”
Draco nodded and quickly finished his sandwich, before rushing to the Transfiguration room. He arrived just as the bell rang and went to take a seat at the back. He noticed Harry and Ron were chatting with Hermione while everyone else was gossiping and overheard a few of them talking about the flash of light, saying it was possibly a spell from Dumbledore. He smirked as he heard this and grabbed the journal he was given by Khira, opening it to the section him and Hermione used to talk. They'd set up a system where when they wrote to each other, the book would make a noise that only the two of them could hear. He jotted a note to Hermione before seeing her casually open her book, tapping the tab to read his message.
Feeling better beautiful?
Still sore, but a good kind of sore -winks-
The kind where you can still feel me deep inside you?
-blush- Don't tease me.
-chuckles- Sorry. Alex knows...
What?! You told her?!
No! The entire castle is going nuts over the wards we triggered last night.
That was us?
Yeah, apparently we set off three wards and there was a huge flash of light.
“Oi! Malfoy” Blaise interrupted and he turned to see Blaise nod his head to the front, where Professor McGonagall was standing, glaring at him.
“Mr. Malfoy, would you care to join us or is your notebook more important than your lessons?” She asked, the people around him snickering as he closed the notebook.
“Sorry Professor. I was finishing up notes for the prefect schedules.”
She nodded and turned to pick up a parchment off her desk, before turning to look back at them.
“By now all of you should know my routine, so please stand up and we will go over the seating arrangement really fast” she said, and once they were all standing, she walked to the left side, “In the front, from left to right, I want Malfoy, Potter, Zabini, Weasley, Parkinson, and Granger. Second row will be Bullstrode, Longbottom, Greengrass, Finnegan, Crabbe, and Thomas.”
As she read off the rest of the names they all moved to sit in their respective seats. Draco glanced around and his gaze fell on Hermione who was currently trying to ignore a smirking Pansy who was whispering something to her. He glared at the Slytherin girl who caught his gaze and yelped lightly. After a few seconds he heard the noise for his notebook go off and opened it to see a note was there.
Thank you
What was she talking about?
I'll tell you in the common room.
McGonagall cleared her throat and he looked up to see her standing there with her hand stretched out. He groaned and handed her the notebook, before she stated he could get it at the end of class. He pulled out another notebook and turned his attention back to class as they started working on transfiguring items of one element into another. He groaned as he noticed it was the same stuff Alex had taught them at the beginning of the summer, and immediately zoned out of most of the details.
Later as the class ended he walked up to her desk and requested the book back but she paused upon giving it to him.
“Mr. Malfoy, though I may know the terms of the situation you are in with Ms. Granger, I do not appreciate you not paying attention in my class. If it happens again I will revoke the rights for the both of you to use these notebooks in my class. For lack of attention, you have lost your house five points” she said and he nodded.
“I understand Professor” he said, taking the book from her and putting it in his pack, before walking back to his dorm for his free study period.
About a month later Draco was sitting in the common room, working on a paper for Potions. He paused to think about things that had happened so far and how he was feeling. Hermione had gone to see Pomfrey, and she had told her that she wasn't able to determine if she was pregnant, but she needed to come see her again a month later just to be sure. Now it was a month later and she was due to go again. They had also been planning a ball for Halloween for the school and decided it would be a masquerade ball. He went back to working on his paper when Hermione came in, mumbling under her breath about something. He looked over and noticed she was upset, before Ron came barging through the door as well.
“Mione! Mione all I asked was for some help and you snap at me! What is going on?!”
“I would ask the same question of you Weasley. What is going on?” Draco said and the redhead turned and glared at him.
“I asked 'Mione for some help with my DADA essay, but she refuses to help me, saying I should pay more attention in class.”
“Alex is teaching us shielding techniques! It's the same stuff we learned during the summer Ronald!” Hermione said, rounding on him.
“I know that Hermione, but I only remember the practical lessons, the hands on ones. I don't remember the reading parts of it.”
“Then go read the bloody thing and stop harassing my girlfriend about it!” Draco growled at Ron as he passed him to follow Hermione.
“Piss off Malfoy!” Ron groaned watching the two of them going up the stairs wrapped up in each other before storming out into the hallway.
“Thank you” Hermione said, leaning up to kiss Draco.
“What's wrong? You've never snapped at him like that.”
“I don't know. I'm just on edge lately and Ron just makes it worse.”
“I know, and I hate to make it worse, but it has been a month since you went to visit Pomfrey. I think you should go and have the pregnancy test done again.”
“I know, but I don't know if I want to hear the answer” she looked around to make sure Ron had left, before noticing Alex was standing by the portrait hole, “How long have you been there?”
“Since Mr. Weasley stormed out. I met him about five steps outside the portrait” she stated.
“Do you think it's possible I could be pregnant?” she groaned again when Alex shrugged “This can't be happening.”
“Mia, if it comes up that you are I will not disagree if you feel you want to abort-”
“No! You will not finish that sentence Draco Malfoy!” she immediately rounded on him, cutting him off, before lowering her voice and wrapping her arms around his neck “Draco, if I am pregnant, we will deal with this together, but I will NOT give the baby up. We are mates and that night was amazing, and I do not, nor will I ever regret it if I am pregnant because of it.”
“You're sure?” he asked and was answered with a kiss that went to his core, “Alright, I'm with you on this, but I just want you to know, regardless of whether you are or are not pregnant, it doesn't matter. You're my mate, and I will always be here for you.”
“As will I for you” she said, kissing him lightly, before Alex cleared her throat, only to receive two glares her way.
“Sorry to break up the love festival, but if you two wish to actually find out, I will accompany you to the Hospital Wing” she said.
“Do you know anything about what happens if a student does wind up pregnant during the school year?” Hermione asked.
“They finish their schooling like everyone else Hermione. They'll be given a leave of absence that will last three months when the baby is born and they can finish their studies while on leave. They just need to finish the homework and take their exams” she said and noticed the younger witch let out a held breath, “You feared expulsion or something similar?”
“I was afraid I'd be kicked out for being immoral or something” she said quietly.
“There are glamours specifically for women who are carrying Hermione. Narcissa actually used one for a few months when she was pregnant with Draco.”
“She never mentioned that. Why did she do it?” Draco asked and she sighed.
“She never said but she did tell me that it involved keeping you safe.” she said quietly.
“What are you hiding from us Alex?” he said suddenly and the dark haired woman blushed.
“Khira has been bringing up wanting to possibly adopt or have a baby after the war is over” she said quietly.
“That's great!” Hermione said, before noticing Alex's face, “That is great right?”
“She wants it but you don't?” Draco asked and Alex shook her head.
“I want to, but I'm afraid I won't be a good mum. With how much I get involved with work and such, I feel I won't be able to devote enough time to them” she said quietly.
“That's only your insecurity talking. You'd be an amazing mother” he said.
“Thank you Draco, but Khira also mentioned she wanted me to consider it being me to carry the child as well.”
“Ouch!” he said and Hermione looked confused at the two of them.
“What's so bad about that?”
“Khira is the submissive in their relationships. By vampire law it is SUPPOSED to be Khira who carries any children they have. Her asking Alex is like asking Alex to let Khira be the dominant” Draco said and Alex nodded.
“You love your wife?” Hermione asked and noticed the dark haired witch growl.
“Of course I love her! We've been bonded for twenty-two years.”
“Have you asked Khira why she wants you to be the one to carry the baby?” the young witch pushed.
“She won't say. Says it's something she doesn't want to worry me about” she replied.
“She's hiding something from you?” Alex nodded at Draco's question and he groaned, “Walls up and everything?”
“Yes.”
“Then confront her to find out what it is Alex and to hell with the vampire laws” Hermione stated and she looked at Draco who nodded.
“Alright, I'll ask, but I know it will probably cause a fight” she said, “So are you going to the Hospital Wing or no? It would probably look better if I was accompanying you there instead of you two going alone.”
“Let's go. Might as well do it now rather than later” Hermione said, following the two of them out of the room.
Once they arrived at the Hospital Wing, Alex told them she was going to go find Khira and talk to her. The two of them said goodbye and walked inside, Hermione choosing to sit on the furthest cot from the door on the left while Draco went and got Madam Pomfrey. He returned a few moments later with her and sat in the chair next to the bed.
“Ms. Granger, wanting to have the test done again?” she asked as she closed the curtains and saw the young witch nod, “Alright, but I doubt it will show anything different then last time. Just pull your shirt up and I'll cast the spell.”
Hermione nodded and laid down, pulling her shirt up to reveal her abdomen. Once she did so Pomfrey waved her wand over her stomach and said something they couldn't make out, as the familiar white globe shined above her stomach. The matron examined the globe before waving her wand again and it turned a shade of blue. She examined it three more times, each time changing it to a red, green, and purple color, before finally the globe disappeared.
“You have nothing to fear Ms. Granger. You're not pregnant” she said, and Hermione smiled and nodded, noticing Draco didn't share the same happiness, “You may head back to your dorms now.”
Hermione nodded to the witch and they walked back to their rooms. Once there she noticed Draco walk over to the desk and sit down, completely ignoring her. She walked over and placed her hand on his shoulder, but he didn't move.
“Draco” she said quietly, but he ignored her still, “Draco tell me what's wrong.”
“For the past month I was worried you would be pregnant. I was expecting it actually.”
“Then why are you upset?” She moved to sit on his lap when he leaned back and he wrapped his arm around her waist.
“I hate not being able to hold you close in public. You're my mate, and I hate not being able to stand in front of everyone and declare that you're mine. If you were pregnant I could do that.”
“Draco, I am yours, and I will always be yours. The people that matter the most to us, the ones who know about us already, are the only ones that really need to know” she said, resting her head on his shoulder.
“I know Mia, but it just drives me insane. I know over the last month it's gotten to where people aren't curious about seeing us together in public, but I just wish I could openly admit you were mine.”
“Soon Draco” she said, kissing his cheek.
The two of them sat there just talking before it was dinner time. Hermione got up and headed to dinner, while Draco took a few minutes longer. He walked into the Great Hall and sat next to Pansy who was talking with Blaise. As he was eating he noticed that Hermione and Ron were once again arguing and this time Ron was forgetting what he was saying, because some of the facts about the summer holidays were coming through the conversation.
“You chose him over me! How do you think it feels having to watch the two of you sitting there making out all the time?!” Ron roared, catching a few students attention.
“Ronald you need to grow up! We already discussed this and you know there is no other way. I told you already it wouldn't work with us anyway because you are just a friend to me.”
“I saw you in the hospital wing earlier. I saw the spells. My mum used them when she thought she was pregnant. You slept with him didn't you?!”
“My sex life does not concern you Ronald Weasley!” she hissed and Draco noticed a few other students start listening and turned to look at Pansy and Blaise, the two of them looking grimly at him.
“Ron shut it!” Harry whispered.
“Harry why do you support this? Why do you support her and him?!” he yelled, not caring who heard, and Draco noticed Alex had stood up and was walking towards them.
“Because they are good for each other! Why are you the only one who-”
“Hermione shouldn't be with the slimy git! His father is a death eater for Merlin's sake!” He roared, and everyone gasped.
“Mr. Weasley, Mr. Potter, and Ms. Granger, each of you outside now!” Alex yelled at them, before they quickly stood up and ran out. She then turned to Draco, Blaise, and Pansy, “Mr. Malfoy, if you and your two friends could join me in my office in ten minutes, I would appreciate it. We need to discuss the project you asked me about.”
“Yes Professor” he replied, before she left to talk to the three Gryffindors.
Once in the hall Alex pulled out her wand and waved it at Ron, silencing him. He glared at her, but she grabbed him by the ear and dragged him along, while the other two followed her. They walked down the hall a few rooms before she turned left, leading them into an abandoned classroom and only then released Ron's ear, quickly locking the door and putting up privacy spells. As she waved her wand at him to release the spell on him he was quickly slapped across the back of the head by Khira, who had sneaked up behind him.
“You bloody imbecile!” she yelled when he rounded on her, “You might as well have said Draco's name!”
“No one will be able to tell it's Mal-”
“Yes they will! They'll be trying to figure out who it is, and only a handful of them are possible! You might as well have said Draco's name you moron!” she yelled cutting him off.
“Ronald I don't know what is wrong with you, nor do I care at the moment, but I can't take this anymore! You and Harry are like brothers to me, but the only one complaining about Draco and I is you!” Hermione said, breaking down as tears started to fall, “Either you change your attitude or I'm done!”
“Hermione” he called as she walked out of the room after Alex unlocked the door.
“Weasley, your attitude is going to get someone killed. Because of you now we have to clean up your mess!” Alex said, and waved Harry over, “Harry go find Hermione, and take her up to my classroom. Draco can probably sense her being upset so he's going to be looking for her. Sit in one of the corners with her until I get there with Draco and the others.”
“Okay” he said, running out of the room.
Hermione was already nearly back to the Great Hall when Harry caught up to her. He told her what Alex said and she nodded, following him to the DADA classroom. Once there she sat down, him sitting next to her.
“Ron is such an arse” she said quietly to no one in particular.
“I know Hermione. I don't understand why he's acting like this” Harry wrapped his arm around her shoulder and she started crying, before the door slammed open, startling them.
“Is Weasley in here?” Draco asked, walking in and Hermione rushed to him.
“Alex and Khira are giving him a tongue lashing for what he said” Harry explained, seeing the two other Slytherins were with him.
“I might just hex his balls off if he comes around me anytime soon” Pansy growled, sitting down.
“I'll join you” Blaise replied, sitting next to her, “There's only so many who are at the school that have parents who are known death eaters. Given the fact that he said slimy git. You've got that narrowed down even more. Hope you're ready for a funeral Draco, because yours may come early!”
“The only funeral that will happen will be Weasley's if he doesn't control that temper of his” They turned to see Alex and Khira standing at the door.
“Professor, everyone is going to know who he means” Pansy said and they all nodded.
“Ronald was given a very strict ultimatum and he chose the option that didn't include losing his manhood” Khira said, sitting on a desk.
“You made him take an wizard's oath?” Pansy asked and she nodded.
“It's only until everyone comes out about everything. If he says anything about anyone in this room, he breaks the oath.”
“That could kill him though!” Pansy replied, and growled upon seeing Alex shrug, “You don't care if he talks to anyone after this?”
“In three weeks you're all coming out about it. If he cannot control himself for three weeks, then he deserves what he gets.”
“Three weeks?”
“The masquerade ball” Hermione said quietly and they nodded, “What are you two planning?”
“I persuaded Dumbledore to hire Valya, the DJ from the club. He's going to be here and he's a halfblood, so he'll play music that is both muggle and wizard alike. The final song he said he would make one of your choice Draco.”
“Any ideas on a song Malfoy?” Harry asked.
“Will there be music like the music at the club?” Draco was curious.
“Definitely.”
“Then I have an idea of what song to use.”
“So basically we wait until the ball, and then what?” Pansy asked.
“During the last song, these two dance and at the end they have a nice little snog in front of everyone and reveal who they are” Alex stated while Khira chuckled.
