-Chapter Twenty-Five-

Early the next morning, Harry woke up with a jolt and sat up gasping for breath and instinctively reached out for his dominant only to encounter the cold, empty space. Frowning as he tried to remember what the dream was about and failing, Harry shrugged his shoulders and turned to glance at the clock.

Groaning when he realized that it was almost quarter past three in the morning, Harry flopped back down on the bed and shut his eyes to try and fall back to sleep. Rolling onto his side, Harry pulled his mates pillow over to him and curled up against it.

With a whimper, Harry sat up and ran his hands through his hair. He could feel sleep just out of his reach and desperately wanted to grasp it. Reaching out, Harry allowed his hands to gently card through Tiger's fur hoping that the loud purr would lull him back to sleep, but there was no such luck.

Rolling out of the bed, Harry made his way out of the room and down the hall and stopped outside of his parents bedroom. Raising his hand to knock he stopped about halfway then lowered his hand and shook his head.

"Harry is something wrong?" Severus asked from beside him.

Jumping slightly, Harry turned to face him and asked, "What are you doing up?"

"I was checking on a potion I was working on earlier today. Now what's wrong? And don't tell me nothing." Severus said crossing his arms.

"It's nothing." Harry said rolling his eyes at his fathers disbelieving look. "I can't really sleep. I'm tired, but I can't fall asleep." He admitted.

"Do you want to come and slip into bed with us?" Severus asked.

"I was going to but I'm too old to be climbing into bed with my parents whenever I can't sleep." Harry said.

"Normally you would be too old, but you were never given the chance to climb into bed with us. Come on you can sleep with us for the rest of tonight." Severus said leading Harry into the room.

"Father and mum, won't mind?" Harry whispered.

"No. Actually a while ago James was upset that he'd never gotten the chance have you climb into the bed with us when you had a bad dream."

"Really?" Harry asked.

"Yes really. Now hop into bed and go back to sleep. You need all the rest you can get while you're pregnant." Severus said giving him an encouraging smile.

Smiling, Harry slid onto the bed and curled up against his mothers side and almost immediately fell back to sleep.

"What happened?" James asked quietly looking up at Severus.

"I found him standing outside of the room debating on if he should come in or not. Apparently he can't sleep with his mate away." Severus explained as he slid back into the bed.

"I know the feeling. After I remembered that you and Lucius were my mates I always had a hard time sleeping, and more times than not I was taking a sleeping potion to fall asleep."

"Well you won't ever have to worry about that again. I promise you that." Severus said reaching over Harry to stroke his fingers down James' cheek.

"I know. You and Lucius are so wonderful to me. It makes me feel like a fool for ever forgetting that we were mated, even though there was nothing that I could have done about it." James said running his fingers up and down Harry's back.

"That's all you need to do is remember that it wasn't your fault that you forgot." Lucius said startling both James and Severus.

"Did we wake you?" Severus asked.

"No, I don't believe so." Lucius said trying to think about what had woken him up. When it finally clicked, he jumped up from the bed and grabbed his dressing gown. "Someone has come through the wards." He explained seeing the looks he was getting from both James and Severus.

Tying the silver silk gown shut, Lucius made his way to the door and said, "I'll be right back. Stay here and watch Harry." Exchanging looks with Severus, Lucius knew that he received the silent message of , 'And James as well.'

Reaching into the pocket of the dressing gown, Lucius pulled out his wand and made his way towards his study; the only room that you could floo into.

Stepping into the room, Lucius leveled his wand at the cloaked figure before he said, "Who are you and why are you in my home."

"Lucius darling, I'm surprised you don't recognize your sweet wife...your sweet, soon to be ex, wife." Narcissa said lowering her hood to her shoulders.

"You do have a right to be here, but why are you here this early in the morning?" Lucius asked pocketing his wand.

"I decided to come here and sign the divorce papers. I'd like to get this over with as soon as possible." Narcissa said with a odd look in her eyes.

"If that is what you would like to do then I shall collect them and give them to you to sign later today after the ministry opens." Lucius said giving a nod of his head.

"Good. Now if you will excuse me I think I shall retire to my room in the family wing until a more acceptable time." Narcissa said flicking her blondish hair over her shoulder.

"Of course. Good night Narcissa." Lucius said stepping out of the way so she could leave the room. When she was out of the room, Lucius followed her out and back towards the family wing. Watching as she entered her room, Lucius then opened the door to his bedroom and slipped inside.

"What was it?" James asked as soon as he stepped into the room.

"Narcissa decided to return to sign the divorce papers sooner." Lucius explained.

"I thought that she enjoyed being married to you?" Severus asked raising an eyebrow.

"She enjoys being married to the money since Sirius inherited the Black family fortune."

"Then why is she all for a divorce?" James asked confused.

"Because she will be receiving a fixed stipend until the day she dies."

"She could have a lot more if she stayed married to you though." James said.

"Yes, but I believe she is looking forwards to finding a new husband that will love her unconditionally, as well as lavish attention and gifts on her." Lucius said remembering what had been in her howler about a rich suitor.

"Hm, if you say so love. Now come back to bed. I don't know about you but I'm still tired." James said laying back down being careful not to disturb Harry.

Dropping his dressing gown onto the back of a chair, Lucius slid back into the bed and reached out to wrap his arm around Harry and James making sure his arm brushed against Severus' when he laid back down as well.

It wasn't long before all four figures in the bed were fast asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A few hours later, Harry was the first to wake up and when he remembered where he was he carefully wiggled out of his parents hold. Crawling to the edge of the bed, Harry climbed over the foot board and slipped down to the floor.

Stopping for a second, Harry smiled when his parents all slid closer together to make up for the loss of his resting form. Quietly, he then made his way over to the door and slipped out of the room and walked silently back towards his bedroom.

Pouting at the still empty bed, Harry moved over to his closet and opened the door so he could walk in and pick out some clothes to wear. Pulling down a white silk shirt and a pair of bluejeans, Harry then turned and made his way out of the closet.

Stopping at his dresser, Harry quickly pulled out a pair of boxers and a pair of black socks then made his way into the bathroom to get into the shower. Stripping out of his old clothes, Harry looked down in shock at the slight swell that was already showing on his stomach.

Stroking the swell, Harry stepped into the shower then turned it on yelping when the ice cold water struck his skin. Quickly turning the hot water faucet, Harry sighed in relief when the water instantly started to warm up.

Grabbing the shampoo, Harry lathered his hair then, still using the shampoo, lathered it up all over his body. Stepping into the spray, he let the suds wash away then bowed his head forwards and let the warm water run over his neck.

After a few minutes, Harry reached out and turned off the water then stepped out of the shower and grabbed his towel. Drying off, Harry scrubbed at his hair to get it as dry as he could then tossed the towel aside and pulled his clothes on.

Making his way out back out into his room, Harry stopped to grab his wand and pocket it.

Looking over towards the bed where Tiger was still curled up, Harry asked, "Are you coming down with me to breakfast?"

Lifting his head up, Tiger gave a wide yawn and gave a soft growl before he curled back up onto the bed.

"Alright. I'll leave the door open a crack for when you want out." Harry said making his way out of the room and down towards the dining room.

Stepping into the room, Harry stopped in shock at the woman already there.

"Mrs. Malfoy I didn't know you were back." Harry said fidgeting.

"Oh yes I just came to sign the divorce papers so we can all be happy." She said smiling tightly at him. "I see that you've transformed. I take it you've already found your mate?" She asked.

"Yes I did. It was actually quite a surprise to the both of us." Harry said smiling gently. Making his way over to the table to sit down in his normal seat.

"May I ask who your mate is?" She asked looking quite interested.

"Of course. It just so happens that the Dark Lord is my mate." Harry said then seemed to freeze when the smile dropped off of the womans face and her eyes seemed to turn to ice cycles.

Fidgeting Harry tried to think of a way to excuse himself until someone else entered the room, but was saved when Draco and Sirius came in through the door.

"Mother!" Came Draco's surprised call. Walking over, Draco lowered his head and pressed a kiss against her cheek. "I didn't realize that you were coming back." He said.

"Like I told Harry I decided to come and sign the divorce papers rather than wait for your father to send them to me." She said as she caught sight of the man standing behind her son. "Sirius! By Merlin you're alive!" She shouted sounding shocked even as a look of pure hatred flashed across her face.

"Yes Narcissa it was a shock to me when I came back." Sirius said frowning at her.

Shaking the look of hatred off of her face she plastered an obviously fake smile on her face and said, "Well it's wonderful to have you back."

"Mother I wanted to tell you this in person. Now you know that I told you that I found my mate, but I didn't tell you who."

"Well? Who is it?" Narcissa asked looking interested.

Taking a deep breath Draco looked back at Sirius and said, "Sirius is my mate."

"What!" Narcissa shrieked jumping up from her seat. "He's too old for you!"

"Mother! You know as well as I do that age doesn't matter to a magical creature." Draco said looking shocked at her reaction.

"Well at least tell me you're the dominant." She said sneering at Sirius.

Blushing, Draco lowered his head and mumbled, "No, as a matter of fact, I'm the submissive."

Giving a noise of disgust, Narcissa turned and stormed out of the room without saying anything else to her son or the others in the room.

Opening and closing his mouth, Draco turned to look at Sirius with distress in his eyes.

"Don't worry love. It's not your fault." Sirius said pulling him into his arms. "Bellatrix and Narcissa have always been upset that I inherited the Black family fortune even after I was disowned. I actually don't know why I inherited it, but I'm not complaining."

"Draco come sit down and eat some breakfast. Don't let this get you upset." Harry said from his seat angry with the woman who had upset his brother.

Looking over at Harry, Draco nodded and made his way over to the table never moving away from Sirius' side. Dropping down into his chair, Draco slouched down and proceeded to place food on his plate.

Leaning down, Sirius whispered something into Draco's ear that made him grin and sit up a little straighter.

Smiling, Harry picked up a biscuit and coated it with butter and strawberry jam then took a big bite out of it. When an owl swooped into the room carrying the Daily Prophet, Harry licked his fingers so he wouldn't get the pages sticky then accepted the paper and gave the owl a piece of bacon.

After eating the bacon, the owl nipped gently at Harry's fingers then flew out of the room.

Opening the paper, Harry got a grin on his face after he read the headline:

Dead Headmaster Manipulated, and Lied!

By, Rita Skeeter

"Most papers have decided to post memorial pieces for the late headmaster Albus Dumbledore, but this reporter received exclusive rights to publish this article. From a source that wishes to remain anonymous for the time being I received multiple letters (all letters will be posted on the next few pages following this article) from the late Albus Dumbledore and Lily Evans.

Albus Dumbledore and Lily Evans started a constant communication late during Miss. Evans schooling at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It wasn't to help a muggleborn student become assimilated into the Wizarding world, much worse, it was to manipulate and capture the late James Potter in a marriage and steal him away from his two mates (both Magical creatures).

James Potter, who actually carried the famous Boy Who Lived, was fed a strong, borderline illegal aphrodisiac, that stripped him of his will and caused him to forget about his mates. While under the effects Lily Evans became Lily Potter, nee Evans. Lily Evans a young woman in love with James Potter was manipulated into this plot, but near the end of her life tried to atone for all of her mistakes.

Through the correspondence I learned that the whole Potter family had supported the Dark Lord, which leads to this very important question: If the Potter's, a family who was against needless killings, was following this man, is he really as bad as the late Headmaster said he was?

While we'll never know what the Headmaster was thinking, we can find out what the so called 'Dark Lord' is thinking. If he really is as bad as Dumbledore said he is, or if he is the best to follow instead of the deceased headmaster.

On a short side note the Governing Board of Hogwarts is scheduled to meet at Hogwarts later today(the day you read the article) following Governing Board leader Lucius Malfoy's statement that 'The children need the school to learn. It's only hurting them to keep it closed for so long, and that will get them no where when it comes time to graduate.'

Grinning, Harry handed the paper over to Sirius and said, "Well now all we need to do is hope that people believe proof rather than a dead man and his famous reputation."

"Don't worry I have a feeling that many will be flocking to the Dark Lord after they read the paper." Sirius said.

As he heard that, Harry felt a sudden fear rush through his head, "What if they use that as a chance to get close to him to try and destroy him?"

"No one will risk it now that there is this doubt hanging over their heads. The only one that would be any danger to him is the spy, and I doubt that he, or she, is stupid enough to do anything while the Dark Lord is surrounded by all of his followers." Sirius said trying to reassure Harry.

Smiling Harry said, "Yeah you're right. I just wish that he'd hurry up and get back here soon."

"Don't worry..." Sirius started to say but was cut off by Harry.

"It's not that I'm worried, it's just that this is a special time for us right now and he's missing it." Harry said pouting slightly.

"Oh, you mean with the pregnancy?" Sirius asked.

"Yeah. When I was getting dressed this morning I realized that I was starting to show already." Harry said gesturing towards his stomach.

"Maybe you'll be less worried when school starts again. You'll have classes to worry about and homework to do." Draco said looking up when he finished reading the article.

"What are you worrying about?" James asked when the three stragglers walked into the dining room.

"He's worried that the dark lord is going to miss the whole pregnancy since he found out that he started to show this morning." Draco said quickly before Harry could deny that he was worried.

Glaring at Draco, Harry sighed and said, "He's right. I am worried about the Dark lord missing everything. Especially since you're meeting to pick the new headmaster of Hogwarts." Harry said motioning towards the now abandoned copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Don't worry about that, Harry. Everything will work out just fine." Lucius said patting his youngest son on the shoulder as he walked by him.

"Are there any books on creature pregnancies in the library?" Harry asked standing up.

"I believe there may be one that has a few passages about it, but there isn't one book dedicated to creature pregnancies." Lucius said after thinking it over for a few seconds.

"Alright." Harry said nodding. Dropping a kiss on each of his parents' cheeks, Harry made his way out of the dining room tossing a wave towards both Draco and Sirius.

"When is your meeting?" Draco asked handing the paper over to his father.

"I have time to eat a quick breakfast before I need to go. The board decided they wanted to meet early, but the meeting shouldn't take very long." Lucius said to James and Severus more than to Draco.

"So you know who you're going to have as the new headmaster?" Severus asked with interest.

"I do have an idea, but I'm not going to say anything until I talk to him personally. In case he doesn't want the position, although I don't see why he wouldn't." Lucius said grinning at Severus.

Eating what was on his plate, Lucius dabbed at his lips with his napkin then stood up. "I should be going. It's never good for the other members to be at the meeting point before I am." Lucius said.

Walking over to stand behind Severus' and James' chairs, Lucius bent down and stole a kiss from the both of them then with a grin walked out of the room leaving them panting for breath.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chuckling as he walked down the hall towards his office, Lucius grinned as he thought about the retribution his lovers would take after he got back to the house later that day.

Stepping into his office, Lucius pulled his meeting robes off of the back of the door and put them on grimacing at the excessive tightness of the material that almost felt like wood.

"Best to get this over with." Lucius mumbled tossing a handful of floo powder into the fire.

"Headmasters office, Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry." He called out clearly then stepped forwards into the flames.

Coming gracefully out of the fireplace, Lucius looked around at the nearly empty office and sneered at the dust that seemed to coat the left over furniture.

"Do the house elves not come up here if there isn't a headmaster?" Lucius asked, trying not to touch anything as he walked out of the room and down passed the gargoyle. Making his way down towards the great hall, where the meeting was going to take place, Lucius noticed the visible differences int the surroundings.

The stone hallways seemed to be covered in layer after layer of dust and the color seemed to be draining from the stone. The ghosts, some of them, were drifting through the halls looking like they didn't know what to do since the students no longer occupied the halls.

Pushing open the doors to the great hall, Lucius strode in with his head held high and motioned one of the house elves over.

"What can Binky be doing for sir?" She asked pulling on her long ears.

"Take another elf with you and go clean up the headmasters office it's filthy." Lucius said before waving his hand to dismiss the elf.

"Yes sir, Binky be doing that right away." She said bowing before she disappeared with a crack with a younger elf that must have been bound to her while he learned the jobs house elves did.

Nodding, Lucius continued into the room and made his way up to the round table that was in the middle of the room for the meeting.

Sitting down in the largest chair, Lucius set his wand on the table in front of him. Within seconds of him sitting down the eight other members of the board started to enter the room and join him at the table nodding at one another.

When the other eight were seated and their wands were in front of them on the table Lucius stood up and said, "Thank you for being here on time. As you all know we are here to find a replacement for the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts. Before we begin let us be sure that all of us are who we look like." Reaching out Lucius picked up his wand and tapped the edge of the table then set his wand back down.

Sitting back down in his chair, Lucius watched as a strong, white light started to emanate from the middle of the table then slowly spread out towards the wands.

As the light surrounded each of the wands they rose off of the table and a flow of smoke burst from the tip of the wand spelling each seated persons last name. The smoke then formed a list hovering in the middle of the table:

L. Malfoy.

A. Rookwood

M. Mulciber

W. Macnair

R(abastan). Lestrange

R(odolphus) Lestrange

A. Dolohov

D. Avery

L. Bagman

When the smoke and light dissipated into nothing, Lucius nodded his head and said, "Good I would have hated having to get rid of any annoying little disturbance. Now as I said before, you all know that as of right now there is no headmaster and it is effecting our children's education. We need to pick a new headmaster who will give our children what they need."

"Who would you suggest Mr. Malfoy?" Macnair asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Gentleman I have a suggestion that, I believe, will have all of us pleased." Lucius said with a smirk.

"Come now Mister. Malfoy don't keep us all waiting. Who is it that you think can teach our children anything we approve of?" Avery asked seeming as if he just wanted to leave.

"This name will most likely have no effect on any of you since only a select few know who he actually is, but trust me when I tell you that he is on the right side of the war." Lucius said taking a second to look all of them in the eye.

"The person I'm thinking of is a man that goes by the name of Tom Riddle."
