Chapter
Five.
The
Real Pack.
“So,
how are you settling in?”
Harry
looked up from the scalectrix race towards the young Beta. It was two
weeks since he had been rescued by the Pack and Harry could honestly
say he couldn't remember being happier. He was never shouted at or
beaten, he had toys to play with, he given good food and his family
wasn't there to ruin it for him. The only fear Harry had was that it
wouldn't last
Before
he answered, Harry took a good look around his room. The walls
were painted a light shade of turquoise blue with a white ceiling,
which had cornices and a ceiling rose. A white four poster bed faced
the two wooden doors which led into the hallway, which had doors into
Melani and Romulus's bedrooms, and the bay window seat over looked
the back gardens of the mansion. There was a large walk-in wardrobe
opposite the bay windows and all the other walls had shelves dotted
about them which had been filled with children's stories within a few
days of Harry arriving. There was a large chest at the bottom of the
bed which held all of Harry's toys except for four: the three teddies
he brought with him, because he slept with them every night, and the
scalectrix, because Romulus couldn't stop playing with it.
The
young werewolf had fast become Harry's favourite person in the world.
Not only would he play with Harry all day but he would even sneak
Harry chocolate all the time, even if Catherine said no. The six year
old had begun to open up to the Beta for no apparent reason. Not that
Romulus minded of course. That was why Harry answered truthfully.
“I
like it here. I've never had new clothes or toys like this before and
everyone's been really nice, it's just...” Harry paused for a
moment. His face scrunched up as he tried to think of the right
words. “It's just that I don't understand why you're doing all
this. My Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia they...” Harry looked away.
“I'm just scared that you'll all get sick of me and send me back to
them.”
Romulus
sighed. “Cub, this is your home now. Your never going back to your
relatives and you sure as hell aren't going to be treated here
like you were there.” Romulus put a finger under Harry's chin,
turned his face towards him and looked into his eyes. “There's a
reason you don't believe me isn't there? What is it?”
Harry
bit his bottom lip for a minute before answering. “If your not
sending me back to them then why are they staying near here?”
Rom
blinked. “Is that what this is about?” Harry nodded. “Emerald,
do you remember when we explained that you were a wizard and that you
were really really important to us as well as to them?”
Again Harry nodded. “Well you see, when you were given to your Aunt
and Uncle spells were put up to keep you safe and to tell people if
you ever left. So, if you were taken from them for to long people
would have come and taken you away from us. However, since your Aunt
uncle and Cousin live on the same property as you, it looks like your
still living with them and you also keep the protection of the
blood wards. Okay?”
Harry
frowned, then pouted before finally nodding his understanding. “So,
I don't have to see them if I don't want to?”
“Of
course not. We would never force you to do anything you don't want to
do,” Romulus said while shaking his head.
Harry
smiled back at him and then started to put the cars on the scalectrix
back to the start. Romulus stared at him for a moment. How was Harry
going to take his news?
“Harry,
I have to go away in a few days.”
Harry's
head shot up, eyes wide. “Why? How log will you be gone?”
He
thought for a moment. “Well, if everything goes well I should be
back in about a week, but it could take up to two.” Harry swallowed
loudly. “I wouldn't go Emerald, but this is really, extremely
important and I don't want anyone else to do it 'cos they might mess
it up.”
Harry
nodded and looked away. Two weeks with out Romulus? What was he going
to do.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Two
days later, Harry was heading towards the 'library', trying to find
something to amuse himself. With Romulus away all the fun had gone
out of his toys and he was tired of reading. Which was why he was
heading fro the 'library'.
Although
the mansion was large, most of rooms were taken up with bedrooms or
studies and so there wasn't much room for anything else. The ground
floor was taken up by a large kitchen, a private dining room, where
everyone ate when there were no guests, a public dining room, for
when there was guests, and a parlour, where guests were entertained.
The second floor had the guest quarters and every Pack members study,
except Melani's. The third floor, which was off limits to guests, was
where Harry and the rest of the Pack had there bedrooms and the
'library'.
The
library, however, wasn't much of a library at all. Sure, three of the
four walls were covered in books and, okay, there were comfortable
chairs to relax in, but, all the chairs were facing a giant plasma
television on the fourth wall, and in the middle of the room was a
full size snooker table.
The
Pack, you see, had this strange idea that bedrooms were only meant to
be slept in. No one had televisions in there rooms or stereos, which
was in the adjoining room, so they all congregated in the library
whenever they weren't doing anything. That didn't mean that the
library was always in use. Most of the Pack had things to do during
the day, so it was usually only in use at night.
So
Harry was surprised to find a tall brunet sitting on the blue sofa
when he walked in.
He
stopped at the door for a moment before going any further in.
Although he had met the whole Pack and knew them by sight, he hadn't
really spent that much time with anyone but Rommy. He was about to
leave when the door shut loudly behind him and the female looked up
with starry blue eyes. She gave him a small smile and beckoned him
closer. When he stood in front of her she spoke to his in a soft
voice. “Hello Harry. Do you remember me?”
“Yes
Ma'am. Your Alexandria.”
Alexandria
nodded. “Yes I am, but please we're family, call me Alex. I was
just about to put a film on, do you want to watch it with me?”
Harry
thought for a moment. Watching a movie would be nice and it wouldn't
make his feel so uncomfortable. He nodded and Alex patted the spot
next to her.
“Right,”
she said when he was comfortable, “what do you want to watch?”
Harry shrugged his shoulders. “Hmm, well how about a Disney
classic? Have you ever seen 'The Lion King'?” Harry shook his head.
“Well, we'll watch that on then.”
She
got up and, after five minutes of searching through cases, she found
the DVD she was looking for. She put the film in and sat back down,
noting that Harry was sitting as far away as possible. Well, she
would just have to fix that then wouldn't she. Reaching to the side
of the sofa, Alex picked up a bag of popcorn and a block of
chocolate. As the film started she opened the popcorn and held it out
for Harry, but he would have to move a little closer to get it.
Harry
paused for a moment before moving closer. He had never tried popcorn
before but it looked good. He put his hand in and took a piece and
put it in his mouth. It was soft, sweet and delicious. He grinned at
Alex before taking some more.
As
the end credits came on Alex turned off the movie and looked at the
little cub beside her. During the film he had migrated from the edge
of the sofa to being almost stuck to her side, after all at six those
hyenas are scary!
“So
Little Emerald, what did you think of the movie?”
Harry
gave her a toothy grin. “It was brilliant. Pumba was so funny.”
“Yeah,
he's my favourite too.” Alex gave Harry a once over. “You know, I
haven't seen you about the mansion very much and then only with Rom,
don't you like the rest of us?”
Harry
blushed a pleasant pink before answering. “It's not that, it's just
that I don't know much about everyone else.”
Alex
thought for a moment. Well, how about I tell you about everyone so
that you don't feel so nervous.?”
“Okay”
“Right.
Well first we have me, of course. I'm twenty five, a Potions Mistress
and Pack Beta.” At Harry's confused look she elaborated. “A
Potions Mistress or Master is someone who brews potions from a simple
headache cure to potions that can make you look like someone else. In
it's simplest form, it's using herbs to cure a headache. Do you
understand?” Harry nodded.
“Now,
I'm married to Marshal. You remember him. My height, red hair,
glasses. Well, he's an inventor of sorts. He gets paid by the
government to create things that they can use. He works in the
cellar, which is why it's of limits. Melani is the Pack seer. Every
Pack has one but she's the best. She was the one to tell us where to
find you. She's twenty. Sara is the real wage earner in the house.
She's a writer, you've even got a few of her book in your room,
although she mainly writes adult books. She's also twenty and dating
Joss who is twenty three and doing at university studying to be a
vet. The last member of our household is Cassy. You probably won't
see her much as she's the Omega of the pack and spends most of her
time helping Mika creating alliances. She's the youngest Pack member,
she's only seventeen. She's also the strongest magic user of the
Pack. Do you have any questions?”
Harry
thought. “If Marshal's your husband, does that mean he's a Beta
too? What's an Omega? And aren't all werewolf's wizards?”
Alex
laughed. “One question at a time please. No, just because I'm a
Beta doesn't mean Marsh is. Now an Omega in a normal wolf Pack is the
outcast. They're the lowest person in the hierarchy, although not all
Packs have one. In a werewolf Pack, however, it just means that they
are the ones that spend a lot of time with other Packs trying to keep
the peace. Cassy pretty much tells The Alpha's of other Packs what
Mika feels about different situations. And no not all werewolves are
magic users. Most are but some aren't. Catherine and Joss aren't
magical. Sara is but doesn't use magic very often.”
“When
will I start to learn magic?” Harry asked excitedly.
Alex
frowned. “Why don't you ask Mika?”
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
A
few months later Harry sat in Mika's study, biting his lip in worry.
Rommy had led him here after lunch and he didn't know why. Mika
walked in behind Harry and sat on the desk in front of Harry.
Although, it didn't look like he was in trouble because Mika was
smiling.
“Harry,
a few of the Pack members have told me that your really interested in
learning some magic. Is that true?”
“Yes
sir.”
Mika's
smile widened. “Well then, I've talked to some of the Pack and
they've agreed to teach you. Joss and Sara have agreed to help you
get your reading and writing up to scratch before you start to learn
any real magic. But,” Mika said at Harry's disappointed
look, “ Romulus has agreed to teach you about different magical
creatures, Alexandria is going to teach you about Herbology and
Melani will start teaching you some different types of Divination. If
your English is good enough, she will also be teaching you some
different languages. How does that sound?”
Harry
nodded enthusiastically. “Yes thank you so much!”
Mika
gave him a nod. “Just remember that it won't be everyday and they
are only doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, so respect
them and don't cause them too much trouble”
