Chapter 50- Heat, dowries and bride prices

December 10, 1994

Blaise was the first to notice something was different today.

It was halfway through Breakfast when he realized that George and Viktor hadn’t shown up at all.

George had been showing the signs of a beginning of a breeding cycle…it was a temperament and scent thing rather then a dietary indication.

Blaise tapped the table, casting a table-wide privacy charm. “No one must enter Viktor’s rooms for any reason. They will be locked in their rooms for a week or less. It would be kind of his schoolmates to copy his assignments. I believe that he will be excused from attendance but not from the work expected due to Durmstrang’s rules.”

Fred frowned, “Why can’t we visit and what is wrong with Forge?”

“He’s on a breeding cycle and went into his first Heat. Had he and Adrian or even Harry be raised by our Kind it would have been explained often. I learned from the time I was young, when my mother bothered to remember. They must be left alone. Their rooms will be heavily warded. It is highly dangerous to force your way past the wards.”

More so for the couple then for the nosy interlopers but it is best to let them think it was for the couple.

Fred sighed, “I would hate to be injured checking on George. If he is safe and emerges when you say then I will give him space.” He shivered, “Besides, I have no need or desire to see George naked and having sex. Viktor might be decent looking for a wizard but I wouldn’t want to see him with my brother.”

“Space is all he needs.”

The others shrugged.

Adrian was mildly curious because someday he might be in a similar position.

Harry and Neville flushed, they weren’t really old enough to have their hormones driving them crazy. It usually became difficult to restrain one’s self when you were a year from your inheritance. .

December 11, 1994

Branko received the signal from Viktor’s wards that he was in heat. He was surprised and proud that Viktor’s mate was Chuvash enough to bring the thrall.

He had the exact details of his son’s future inheritance at this point, when he flooed to Longbottom Hall. He’d sent notice of his arrival prior.

When he emerged from the floo he was met by a lovely woman, white hair coiled back in a tight bun, with grey-blue eyes and an imposing aura.

Branko bowed, “Lady Weasley?”

“Mr. Krum. My husband asked me to escort you to his study. While he is the head of George’s sire’s House, he also belongs to the House of Prewett and if you have no objection he would like our son’s soulbonded to sit in on the discussion.”

Branko nodded, “It is acceptable and understandable. A child born to two titled families have interests and concerns that relate to both of them. I would prefer that this be as agreeable to both sides as to my own.”

“Very well come with me.”

Branko followed her.

He was led from the Hall’s Receiving Room to up a set of atrium dominating stairs, down a long gallery filled with magical portraits.

George’s grandmother knocked on a sturdy oak door.

A booming voice called out, “Enter.”

Lady Weasley opened the door and gestured for him to enter.

Branko bowed to her, “Thank you.”

Branko entered the spacious room, two walls were filled with bookcases and behind a large mahogany desk was an enchanted window.

There was a peach-coloured settee opposite the desk and to it’s right was a matching armchair.

“Branislav Krum?” asked the kindly looking man behind the desk.

Branko bowed, “Call me Branko. You would be Lord Septimus Weasley?”

The man nodded, gesturing at the chair, “Call me Septimus. Those would my George’s parents; the tall one is my son Arcturus and his soulmate Gideon Prewett. It has been a rather rocky few months but we are slowly coming to terms with this.”

Branko nodded at them, “Septimus, Arcturus and Gideon. While my son is focusing on Quidditch he is at least on paper heir to my company.”

“What is it that you do?” Gideon asked.

“I hire people to retrieve rare items for potions masters and wand makers. We have a standing contract with the Gregorovich family.”

“A good income then?” Septimus mused.

“Oh yes, it keeps my wife in a fine estate and all the luxuries she could ever want. I had set aside a large amount of galleons to be paid to my son’s mate’s family to finalize the mating. He and George are in seclusion.”

Septimus frowned, “In seclusion? Why?”

Branko sighed, “I forget that you maybe carriers of the Chuvash blood but are not one yourselves. When a Chuvash finds their mate and they chose one another, then after a few months the submissive goes into heat and brings the thrall.”

“What is thrall?” Gideon asked looking curious.

“It is a season between five to ten days of non stop sex. It’s part of our make up, most Chuvash only conceive on a heat. A powerful submissive will conceive their first heat if their mate is strong enough. Viktor was conceived our first thrall, yet it took a few more heats to conceive again and they were not carried to term. A single dominant will not feel a thrall without a mate for a mate brings the thrall. It is possible that George will conceive during this thrall. If not, he will most likely have two sometime next year. It would be responsible to finalize the legalities of their bonding before such news is revealed.”

“I see.” Septimus said steepling his fingers, “What was the bride pride you were willing to offer?”

“A sum of 300,000 Galleons.”

Arcturus gasped, “That much? Even for a wizard?”

Branko was smug; “A Chuvash’s mate is non-negotiable once they are claimed. I am pleased my son has such excellent taste. He is good-looking, smart and has goals. He has proven that he is worthy of my son and that is all that matters. In the announcement in the Daily Prophet you mentioned a property.”

Gideon nodded, “It is a Prewett property in Godric’s Hollow. I know that Oliver and Percy will be moving to The Rowans upon their bonding since it is Oliver’s inheritance. I thought they would like to be close. The place is called Faire Fields; it is enclosed with warded stonewalls and a set of iron gates. It has 28 acres of parkland and was once well known for its gardens. There is a set of greenhouses on the property as well as a furnished lab.”

Branko chuckled, “George mentioned his desire for a lab and to raise rare plants.”

“Then it will suit as a dowry then?” Septimus asked.

“Viktor will at least gain my company in name upon my death, what will George receive?”

“Upon his bonding the trust vault that Gideon and I have arranged will fall to him. As for inheritances, none of us have wills that are accurate with out present desires.” Septimus offered.

“I am willing to sign papers granting my approval of this match.”

Septimus pushed a set of documents across the desk with a quill and ink.

Branko read them over and found that it bore the other wizards’ signatures as well as the Prewett and Weasley seals that were inked in blood. He signed with flourish and added his own seal as well in blood.

The contract glowed blue and then white.

“Thus they are legally betrothed. Contracts will be procured from Gringotts.

The four wizards shook hands and shared a toast of Ogden’s Firewhiskey to celebrate.

“About the Bonding?” Branko spoke from his chair.

“Percy’s had been arranged for the twenty first of January.”

“It has long been tradition for Krums to be bonded on the fourteenth two months following their first thrall.”

“That would be Valentine’s day.” Arcturus spoke up.

“I see no issue, it is a Muggle Holiday is it not? “ Branko shrugged. “Unfortunately, I can not guarantee that my mate will attend or will be pleasant no matter how much I punish her. She is a stubborn woman and has had little to do with either of us for years. She does not approve of George and might make trouble. I should punish me more but it does no good and I do not wish to be accused of ill treatment by her family. It is due to our relationship that I have such good contracts with the Dragon Preserve.”

Arcturus was interested now, “Harvey Ridgebit’s?”

“Yes, my mate’s brother Dragomir runs it.”

“Yes, we met…well Molly and I did when we spent a winter solstice with Charlie. He was not pleased to see us as you imagine.”

Branko raised his glass, “A shame that it was not in better circumstances. A relationship between us might spell more advancement for your son. I hope that we both thrive from this union of our families.”

December 14, 1994

George and Viktor emerge from seclusion

George was sore when he woke.

Viktor licked his claiming mark, “Morning beloved.”

George flushed, “I’m too tired.”

Viktor laughed, “A few days of non-stop sex I am sure you’ve had enough.” He gave his mate a burning look, “For now anyway, not that I could be tired of you.”

George moved away and then winced.

Viktor handed him a bit of toast.

George ate it ravenously.

Then Viktor handed him a few potions.

George frowned at him.

“An energy potion, a pain-reliever and a mind clearing one.” Viktor said reassuringly.

George nodded and drank them quickly.

Then Viktor kissed him.

George preened, letting his mate hold him.

Viktor smirked, “I must have proved my virility.”

George frowned. “What?”

Viktor laughed, “If I had failed, your Chuvash would be displeased.”

George blushed, “Oh…”

Viktor realised that George didn’t quite understand his meaning but shrugged. “We ought to dress and rise for breakfast.”

George’s eyes widened, “What? How long have we been out of it?”

“We went into thrall on the tenth. I woke up yesterday. It is now the fourteenth.”

George groaned.

Viktor frowned at him, “What is the matter?”

George gaped at him, “I had sex and missed my brother’s birthday.”

“Which brother?”

“Charlie.”

“Oh the other Dominant. He works for my uncle. He’ll forgive you. I am sure you have a gift for him and he’ll forgive us. It’s not like he’ll not have to deal with thrall himself in time.” Viktor had a feeling that Charlie would find himself mated whether he wanted to be or not. That Zabini had his heart set on him and heaven help the dominant who thought they could resist.

They rose and dressed in their uniforms before making their way towards the Great Hall.

Blaise waved at them and then the rest of the table noticed them.

Blaise whispered in Parseltongue, “Did you enjoy yourself? What was it like? Can you remember anything?”

Viktor snarled at him, “Let him alone, he is need of food.”

Chastised Blaise turned to his own meal.

George pinched Viktor’s arm, “He was only curious. You didn’t need to snap at him.”

“You need to eat. He can ask questions about private matters at another time.”

George pouted and began to eat, filling his plate with eggs, toast and meat.

Viktor waited until George began to eat for focusing on his own meal.

Blaise picked at his food, his appetite vanishing against his will because he had displeased a dominant. It was unfair! Viktor wasn’t even a true Chuvash. How could be cow him like this.

Adrian grabbed his ear, “Eat! I won’t have one of my snakes passing out in class due to a lack of proper nutrition.”

Blaise grumbled but ate anyway. He didn’t mind obeying one dominant (Charlie), but being ordered about by two of them who weren’t even his at breakfast was unfair.

The meal was quiet, it was a cold December morning and most of them were drinking steaming cups of tea, coffee and chocolate with their meals.

After breakfast Vanya approached Viktor and held out a stack of parchment.

“Your assignments from the professors.” He said is Russian gruffly. “Would have gotten them if you’d asked. Didn’t need a Hogwarts student to remind me about it.”

Viktor clasped his wrist in thanks, “No problem. If I had thought it would happen so soon I would have asked. I thought we were still in the settling-in period and didn’t expect it. Was it Blaise?”

The other Durmstranger nodded stiffly.

Viktor turned to the young Slytherin and hissed his thanks in Parseltongue, “Thank you. It was kind of you to mention that we might need these. If you and your fellow submissives would like to visit this evening you are welcome. Adrian may has well. We don’t remember much. Due my not being able to shed my skin my father was clear about the nature of thrall. He was vague because he doubted it would happen to me.”

Blaise beamed, “I wanted to be sure that you two would be safe. I told them that your wards would injure them if they attempted to enter your rooms. They agreed to stay away.”

“That was wise of you. Thank you. You will make someone a loyal mate.”

“Charlie. That’s who I want.” Blaise said softly.

George laughed, playfully slugging him in the shoulder, “That would make us brothers. I hope you convince him. He is being stubborn. I think he worries about the age difference.”

“It’s not important.” Blaise said quietly. “My father was matched my mother when she was conceived. They were sixteen years apart in age. We are only what?”

“Charlie was born on December twelfth in 1972.” George offered.

“That’s only seven years difference. I was born in December of 1979. it’s not so much.”

George sighed, “I hope you convince him of that. I would like to see him happy.” He smiled at Viktor, he was a good man and he already loved him.

They all separated to retrieve their school things and head to classes.

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?

ChaosLady - Thanks!

MakeupDiva84 - I always see Ginny as a fame obsessed stalker. She does need help but unless Aberforth really steps up as a parent nothing will be done. Harry is slowly falling for Draco so I don't see him falling for Ginny. Glad you liked it thanks for reviewing.

jujukitty - Severus' Creature Inheritance was revealled in a chapter of the side-fic Unlikely Heroes: Fallen Feathers, Mirrored Scales. It has scenes that weren't fitting in the main story. Something like Starlight_Massacre's Scaled Bits but not quite.
