Neville Longbottom or better know to his friends as Nev. walked the halls of Hogwarts in thought. Hogwarts herself shielding, him from the eyes of those that patrol the halls after curfew. Neville has come a long way from what he once was. Shy, chubby, clumsy, low self esteem, and afraid to speak his mind. One day he went from being bully magnet to being ignored. That suited him just fine.
In the beginning he doubted the sorting hat for putting him in Gryffindor. Growing up with his grandmother was definitely no picnic. He was constantly being compared to his dad. When he could compare his life to Harry in some ways. They both lost their parents when they were babies. Granted his parents are alive in the flesh. But, their minds are dead; no amount of magic or medicine will bring them back.
Harry was like a brother to him, since their first year they made a connection. When Harry saved his life in first year. Harry always stuck by him and encouraged him when everyone else would put him down. It was in second year when they really got close. He cannot explain how or when it really happened. Even though they did not flaunt their friendship they were always there for each other. It was no question when Harry went to the ministry that Neville would not go with him. Sirius had meant the world to Harry.
He saw how broken Harry was after Sirius death. Ron and Hermione comforted him. But they ignored his broken heart. Neville understood what it felt like to lose a loved one. As they grew in friendship so did his courage to step out and speak up for himself. He still seeks out the approval form his grandmother.
That was until he turned seventeen this summer. They argued before his birthday. It was always the same thing. She wanted him to enroll in the Auror academy and become an Auror like his parents. He wanted to stay at Hogwarts, to apprentice with Professor Sprout. He wanted his Mastery in Herbology. He could not take it anymore and blew up at her.
His grandmother did not understand his fascination with plants. Whenever he would try and talk to her about she would ignore him or changed the subject. It was the reason why he never told he could hear plants. Her constant belittling got to him. After she compared him to his father one more time…
“I am not my mother and father Gran…. I will never be.” He shouted at her.
“They would be ashamed of the way you speak to me. You are right you are not your parents. They were better than you. All you do is talk to your plants. Your mediocre when it comes to marriage.” She snapped back.
It was then he told her that maybe it she should take a holiday. After his birthday she would not be needed. She left a week before his birthday.
It was the same time Harry had asked to stay with him for the rest of the summer. He eagerly agreed. The night before his birthday he felt weird he could not described it. He just felt off. He knew that he would get a magical boost. But, what he got was so much more. He is one of the founder’s descendant and heir. To top it he came into to his creature inheritance.
Being from a pureblood family he knew there was a possibility of it happening. He was not expecting becoming an Elf. He also has a mate or mates out there somewhere. Neville has never had a hang up about sex or gender preferences. He use to have a crush on Luna, but the more he got to know her, the more he saw her as a friend.
He continued to walk the halls taking in Hogwarts beauty. He had no destination in mind. His life has changed in so many ways. Protecting Hogwarts has become very important to him. He no longer looks at it have a school but his home. The castle started to shake as he turned the corner. To break his fall he grabbed on to the first thing in front of him. Instead he was pushed backwards. Hitting his head on the stairs.
Trying to clear the stars from his eyes, Neville realized someone was lying on top of him. Looking up at who was on top of him eyes connected with the most beautiful person he has ever seen. Eyes made of pools of chocolate. You could drown in. Neither said anything as they looked into each other’s eyes.
It could only happen to him…. Only he would have his mate literally fall into his hands.

"Two with the power to vanquish the Dark Lords approaches…. Born as the seventh month dies ...They will be equals, Brothers in arms…they shall vanquish the snake and the fake light Lord, they will have power the Dark Lords knows not ...they will fight and conquer… They will rebuild their home…. Neutral and Light shall prevail…. Two with the power to vanquish the Dark Lords will be born as the seventh month dies...”
“They must know the truth Luna. They need to know that the Headmaster and the prophecy are false” said a serene voice. “The time is near and they will be needed.”
“I will tell them My Lady, your Heirs will know the truth. But first they need to join with their mates. Together the brothers will be strongest.” Replied Luna.
“I cannot hold the Headmaster back for much longer. He is starting to get suspicious of young Harry. I see him watching the bond between the brothers grow. He knows that his attitude has changed towards to him, and his so call friends. Our time his running short.” Lady Hogwarts was worry for her Heirs dangerous times are coming for both. They will need their mates to ground them. She hopes they find them in time. “The bonding process needs to start soon. I fear the worst if it does not happen in time.”
Luna smiled and looks at the glowing figure in front of her. “It has already begun.”
Lady Hogwarts sighed, “Why do they hesitate. Human are such complex creatures.”
“They fear reject My Lady. If they are rejected not only will their hearts break. It could also mean their deaths”
Anger boiled in Lady Hogwarts, a swirl of wind surround her. Her silver white hair seemed to take on the form of a raging fire. Her silver eyes glowed with anger. “I have not been able to protect my Heirs the way I should, but from this day forth I…WILL…DESTROY…. ANY…WHO DARES…TO…HARM…THEM!!” The castle started to shake, with her anger.
Luna understood her anger. For years she had to sit by and watch her Heirs abused and could not do anything until they came into their inheritance. Everyone saw as crazy or loony as they would like to call her. But, just like the Slytherin’s who wear a mask. Her mask is of a different caliber. “My Lady, do not upset your self so. They are protected; by myself, and the two other you have hidden in secret to watch over them. We will not fail you.”
Lady Hogwarts calmed and the castle settled. “I must go. There are things I must prepare.” Luna bowed her head in respect. And, Lady Hogwarts disappeared. Luna walked out of the room of requirements; she went to the chambers that host her lovers. They nestled together. Changing out of her clothes she climbed into bed with her. Sensing her the separate, she climbed in between them.
“Everything alright?” one asked
“Yes” she replied
What’s got Lady Hogwarts upset?” asked the other
Luna sighed as they nestled closer to her, giving her comfort and strength. “She is ready for the bonding process to begin. She is ready to exact or revenge to those who have hurt her Heirs.”
“So are we.” They replied together.
The next morning the great hall was a buzz. Those who were awake talked about the castle shaking. The Headmaster stood on the podium to get everyone attention.

Clearing his throat “ Sonorus. Last night, there was an explosion. We have investigated the surrounding areas. Mr. Filch have deduced that is was a prank used with products from Weasley Wizard Wheezes. There was no damage done to the castle. Products from Weasley Wizard Wheezes are banned from school property. Enjoy your breakfast.” He ended the sonorous and walked back to his seat.
Students in the great hall went back to their previous conversations. No one saw the smirk on Luna’s face. She knew her lovers had set up fake bombs in certain areas of the castle. Even you My Lady we will protect.

His mate is here. Draco sat in his transfigurations class scenting the air. He caught the scent of his mate. He was close. He must not be blocking his scent. He looked around the classroom to see if he could figure out who is mate was. He knew the name he was given was not his real name.
Potter and Longbottom sat together their heads was bowed as if in a deep conversation. He had not been paying Potter any mind this year. He has been too focus on finding his mate. He sent home the weekly reports to his father as requested, but other than that he could careless what Potter does.
He moved his gaze from the two and scan the class but saw no one out of the ordinary. Weasley, Weaslette and Granger sat opposite Potter and Longbottom. He knew it was not the Weasel he would rather be with Potter than the Weasel.
Before class could begin Draco saw an owl he did not recognize fly into the room and headed straight for him. She was a great grey spotted owl. She stopped right in front of him in her beak was a letter. Taking it from her, he petted her. She nipped his fingers drawing a few drops of his blood without hurting him. Then flew back out of the classroom.
Looking at the letter in his hand, the handwriting did not look familiar. He was confused as to why he would receive a letter in the middle of the day. He knew it was not from his parents; she was not one of the family owls. His curiosity got the better of him opening the letter he started to read….
My Dominant,
I know what I ask of you is hard. I want to do nothing more than to give myself freely to you without fear that you will reject me. My life is not easy. I hide who I am from you and others to protect myself. I have been hurt too many times by those I have trusted; your rejection of me would hurt worst.
From what I observed you, and I were brought up in completely different worlds. We are destined to be with each. Yet, we know nothing of significance about each other. I propose that we try to get to know each other before we meet face to face. To respond this letter, whisper Athena’s name and she will come to you. She will find me when I am alone and deliver it to me. You will not be able to track her back to me. So please do not try to put a tracking charm on her.
I await your response.
Yours truly,
Evan P.
Draco scanned the classroom to see if anyone was watching him. No one was acting suspicious to him. He folded the letter put it in the front pocket above his heart. He will re-read it later and respond to his mate. Maybe asking certain questions would give him a clue as to who is mate is. He smiled. Soon my little mate I will find out who you are, and there will be no more running.
Harry watch Draco’s face go from confusion, then surprise as he read the letter. He battled with himself whether to send the letter or not but in the end gave in. He had to start somewhere. He wished his mating were as easy as Neville’s. They have not bonded yet. They have decided to take things slow. Neville was ecstatic his mate literally fell into his arms. He was happy for his brother. He told Neville about his dilemma and who his mate was.
After, Neville laughed his arse off; he sat down and helped the best way to show himself to Draco without Draco knowing who he really is. He hoped Draco responded soon because waiting will be excruciating.
