Someone’s got a Secret

It was mid morning before James stirred; moaning softly as he became aware of everything around him again. “Morning sexy,” he heard a deep velvet voice.

The dark haired wizard opened his eyes and smiled up at Lucius. “Morning to you too.”

He sat up leaning against the headboard and rubbed the sleep from his eyes. It was then that he saw the silver tray full of strawberries on the nightstand. “Are those for me?”

“Of course. They are your favorite after all.”

The blond picked a strawberry up and held it to James’ mouth. He took the whole thing in one bite letting out a soft moan. “Have you decided how long you’re staying yet?” Lucius asked.

“I think I need to leave this afternoon.”

“But you just got here. I had so many things planned for us to do. And we don’t even have to leave this bedroom for most of them.”

James laughed softly. “Lucius, you’re almost as insatiable as me. I wouldn’t have admitted it back when we were in school, but I think we’re a perfect match.”

“Yes well, back when we were in school we belonged to enemy houses. I’m surprised you were able to get away with your strange and fucked up relationship with Severus. Then again, what couldn’t you get away with.”

James smiled and laughed again. “Not much. There may be a very large box full of records of punishments I received, but those were the few times I actually got caught.”

“And even when you were caught you usually got off easy. Except for that time you actually made Dumbledore angry enough to yell. That man never yelled. “

James cuddled close to the blond and lightly nipped at the side of his neck. “What’s got you thinking about school all of a sudden?”

“I was just thinking.”

“About?”

“About my heir. He or she will no doubt be accepted to Hogwatrs and placed in Slytherin just like everyone else in my family.”

“Are we happy or sad about this?”

“I don’t know. It is a family tradition. And if it’s a boy it really will help him to succeed.”

“So the problem would be…?”

“Well for one, your child will no doubt be placed in Gryffindor. James, I don’t want them to be enemies. In fact, I hoped that I would have a son and you would have a daughter. That way we could try and get them together.”

“Have you forgotten the fact that Lilly is muggleborn? The Malfoy’s have always prided themselves on being pure bloods.”

“Yes well, I’m willing to overlook that. And I’ve had your bloodline looked at and it’s remarkable. Did you know that you’re a descendant of all four Hogwart’s founders?”

“Yes, I found that out when I researched it myself.” He pulled away from the blond. “There are a lot of famous and powerful witches and wizards in my family tree. I’m sure you noticed that included in the list is Ariana Vale, the most powerful magical being to have ever lived.” There was now a hint of anger in his voice. “Of course I’m sure you know that that means I have elf blood running through my veins. Yes, I supposedly have the perfect magical bloodline. That’s why Voldemort wants me. He wants me as his mate so he can feel even more important. Now I have to ask myself if that’s why you want me too. Do you just want me to add my bloodline to yours?” He glared back at Lucius.

Lucius cautiously scooted himself back towards James. “Calm down love. You know that isn’t true.”

“Then why did you have my family tree researched?”

“Curiosity mostly. No one seems to know much about you. It’s common knowledge that Dumbledore adopted you when you were two years old, but the mystery is why. He wouldn’t have done that if there wasn’t something to be gained from it, we both know that.”

James seemed to calm down a little bit. With a deep sigh he started to get dressed and gather his things. “And we both know that I was being groomed to stop Voldemort. Dumbledore knew the psycho would be trouble before anyone else had a clue.”

“Well for all our sakes I hope you succeed. You know I’m only a deatheater because my father made it so and I’m too afraid of the Dark Lord to resist him.”

“I don’t see why.”

“Of course you don’t.”

“In any case, I need to be getting back.”

Lucius nodded and hugged his lover tight, giving him a soft kiss on the lips. “I already miss you,” he whispered. “If you happen to see Severus tell him hello for me.”

James nodded and left to go back to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. They stayed in a little cottage that was hidden away in the woods somewhere in the countryside. When he was near he uttered the charm that would lift the magical veil surrounding it. The door swung open and he stepped inside to be greeted by the faces of his friends looking up at him.

As soon as Lilly saw him she jumped to her feet and ran toward him hugging him tightly. “Oh James, I missed you!”

He hugged her back and kissed her forehead. “I missed you too.”

“I’ll go get Dumbledore. He wanted to be informed the minute you returned,” Remus Lupin spoke and disappeared off into the library.

“I just bet he does,” James mumbled taking a seat on one of the couches next to Sirius and nuzzling up against him. “Did you miss me too?”

Sirius answered him with a deep passionate kiss. “Of course I missed you! I really hate it when you go off by yourself like that. I worry that you won’t come back.”

James smiled and hugged the man tightly. “I know,” he said. “But I have to do it in order to gather information. We have to stop that psychotic jackass. The Ministry sure as bloody hell won’t, and no one else can.”

“I know,” Sirius spoke softly; a tear forming in his eye. “I just can’t stand the thought of loosing you.”

“None of us can.”

They all turned to see Dumbledore standing in the middle of the room, his dark blue robes slightly dirty from soot. “I’m glad to see that you’ve returned safely once again. Now, what information did you bring me?”

They all sat around the kitchen table and James told them everything he knew. Then James and Dumbledore discussed and planned what they were going to do about it.”

“James, are you sure we can pull this off?” Arthur Weasly asked.

“I’m hurt Arthur. All the battles that I’ve successfully planed and you still doubt me.”

“It’s not that. It just seems like an awful big task for just us. We all know we’re outnumbered by a lot. I trust you though.”

James, could I have a private word with you?” Dumbledore asked suddenly.

With a deep sigh James stood and followed the older wizard upstairs to an empty bedroom. “Yes?” he said sounding a bit annoyed.

“I know you’re secret,” Dumbledore blurted out.

“And what secret might that be?”

“It’s obvious by your manner that you’ve recently been with a mate. Now I know it wasn’t Lilly, Sirius, or Severus. That only leaves one conclusion. You’ve got yourself your fourth mate. It’s also obvious that this mate is slipping you all of the excellent inside information you’ve been bringing back.”

James was becoming angry, but he tried to not let it show. “I guess that means I really can’t slip anything past you.” He knew what was coming next.

“So, who is it?”

The dark haired wizard turned his gaze away and looked down to the floor. “I can’t tell you,” he answered in a soft voice.

“What do you mean you can’t tell me?”

“Just that. I can’t tell you.” He looked back up at the only father figure he’d ever known. “He doesn’t want anyone to know so I promised I wouldn’t tell anyone, not even you.”

Dumbledore looked a little surprised. “While I admire that you wish to keep your promise, we need to protect this person.”

“You mean you want to be able to cut out the middle man and go to him yourself. This may come as a surprise to you, but I am perfectly well able to protect him myself. I’ve done so for quite a while now.”

The older wizard was starting to become frustrated and decided to try a new tactic. “Do Lilly and Sirius know you’ve got a fourth mate?”

“No, but Severus does. Like I just told you, he doesn’t wish anyone to know.”

“So you go to speak with this person leaving Lilly and Severus here to worry about you, when in fact you’re not really in danger at all.”

“That’s not entirely true, though I wouldn’t expect you to understand. I know they worry about me. I don’t like it when they worry unnecessarily, but in this case it can’t be helped. Now, was there anything else you wanted to speak to me about?”

Dumbledore sighed and shook his head. “James, you’re a real piece of work. Never before have I been proud and disappointed at the same time. I must return to Hogwarts now. Keep me posted.”

With that the silver haired wizard returned to the library where he returned to Hogwarts via floo powder. James then returned to his friends in the living room in a bit of a foul mood.

A/N: YAY!! I finished it! This one’s a bit longer than what I normally write. I guess that’s why it took me 3 days to finish. Anyway, I do hope you enjoyed it. Please leave a review. You have no idea how much a good review brightens my day. Bad reviews aren’t as good, but as long as it’s constructive criticism instead of destructive I can take it.
