#4 Privet Drive, July 30
Dominant Veela
Males, strong physical and magical, possessive and protective of their mates, they will not put
their mates in danger and will do everything in their powers to protect them. Veelas recognize their
mates by smell and sometimes may have dreams about them. Have one mate and they mate for life. Say
mate has been chosen for them by Valeria, the first veela(legend say that she was create by Aphrodite the
goddess of love) at their birth. Their mate is someone that they know and compliment one another.
Usually is someone that invoke strong emotions on the veela positive or negative emotions. Their mates
can be male or female either way because they can impregnate both sexes (survival of the species). If
their mates are males say males are very strong magical to be able to carry their offspring and to defend
them of any danger. Sometimes even more powerful magical than the veela. A veela mate can be a
veela, wizard or other magical creatures likes Dark Elves, Light Elves, werewolf, werecats , etc., but
never a non magical creature or muggle. Without their mates a veela will not survive they will become
increasingly sick and eventually die, it say of heartbreak.
Physical appearance and powers
The majority of the veelas have blond hair and their eyes are light blue to
gray, fair skin and there are consider beautiful and graceful even before their coming of age (at age 17).
At age 17 a veela or for that matter any descendant of one come to their inheritance. If there is ΒΌ or
more of veela blood on the person he or she will go through some physical changes and their will have
the need of their mate. A dominant veela will have a high on average of 6'0" to 6'4". They are stronger
that the average human and faster too. And the magic increase according with how much of veela blood
is in the person, the more veela blood the more the magic will increase. They have an allure that make
everybody lust after them with the exception of their mates. On their mates the allure only make the
sense of want and need to be with the veela and be take care by them. The veela can't control their allure
completely until after they are bond with their mate. When anger their nails become claw like, hard like
steel and razor sharp, their canine will become fangs and their speed and strength increase ten fold.
Their eyes become red and their mates are the only one capable of calming them down.
Submissive Veela
Female, they are the most come one and everything that apply to the male veela apply to
them except in the physical changes. A female veela will grow to a high of no more of 5'5" in average.
Also have blond hair and light color eyes. If the female is a full blood veela when anger she will sprout
wings and her nails will become claws like hard and razor sharp like the males veelas. Depend on the
level of anger they can become a bird like creature. That is the most common conception of veelas that
the majorities of the world know. If the veela is not full blood they don't have wings and will not
become a bird like creature; they will look more like their males counterpart, claws and fangs to protect
their mates and offspring.
The legend
The legend said that Aphrodite create the first veela to be a companion for her, a friend. Loyal and
caring beautiful and full of love. She call her Valeria. With time the veela start longing for what she saw
in the mortal world in her visits with Aphrodite; the love of a mate. The goddess seen her companion
and friend so sad help her to look for a perfect mate. She gave the veela her sense of smell to identified
her mate and let her go to the mortal world. With the time she bond and married her mate after her first
offspring was born the village were she live with her mate was attack. In desperation to safe her new
form family she plead to Aphrodite for strength to protect her love ones. But because anger is an ugly
thing Valeria became the bird like creature that we know. It say that once she destroy the attackers and
her mate found her she transform back to her usual beautiful self. After her mate die of old age she
didn't want to life anymore and pray to Aphrodite to take her life in the name of love. So she took her
back and from the realm of the gods she match every one of her descendants to live a life full with their
perfect mate.
The love of a Veela is the purest, unconditional and sincere. The creation of Aphrodite was made of love,
for love, to love and to be love. If you ever became the mate of a veela, feel blessed for you have been chosen
by the Goddess of love to care and be care for; for one of her most precious creations. This is was the legend
said. I took the time to interview veela's mates and all of them said the same thing never their veela has put
them in danger intentionally and that they do anything for say mate even without been ask to. They are
pampered beyond any doubt.
With that Harry close the book. He look at it one more time 'Magical Creatures, What's True or False about
Them'; it was the third time that he read the book. It has been a birthday gift from Remus, an early birthday
present. He knew that Harry will be with his relative until his 17th birthday in July 31. And two months with
out contact from his friends can be boring. After that day he will be able to move out to #12 Grimmauld Place,
The Black Manor, the house Siruis Black his godfather left to him.
This summer his relative had done everything to ignore him. He hasn't do any chores but they do not
care for him neither. His on his own, is he hungry he have to do his meals and clean anything and everything
that he own or used. The only thing they did to him was to look his trunk in the cupboard under the stairs but
that is nothing new. They allow him his books and anything of that sort, so this time around he was able to do
his summer homework, for once...
It was 10:00 pm when Harry decide to go to bed. 'Tomorrow I will be free.' He said to himself. He change
his clothes to a pair of night pants an lay down on the bed. 'I wish I could have a love like that promise to the
mate of a veela, pure unconditional and sincere, but with my luck every person who approach me it's because
I'm the boy who kill Voldemort' He sigh. 'I know that every relationship had highs and lows, but to be sure that
not matter what kind of error you make and how mad can you make them your partner will not stop loving you,
will not betray you for fame and will always love you is kind of nice. Like my parents they love each other so
much...' 'I wish someone love my like that' with that last though our hero was claim by Morpheus to the realm of
dreams. Unknown to him the gods has already give to him his wish because, before he was born, he had been
chosen to be the mate of a veela.
"He who had to vanquish evil deserve true love." Harry wake up startle, like someone has whispered
something to him. He look for his glasses put them on and look at the clock on to of the dresser, it's show
7:00am. He smile in two hours he be out of these hell forever. Quickly he got dress and when down got
himself some breakfast and unlock his trunk from the cupboard under the stairs and when to pack his
belongings. About an hour later Harry found himself seating on his bed waiting for Remus Lupin to take him to
his new home.
"Harry!" He turn to see Hermoine and Ron waving a hand to him. He approach them and at once
Hermoine have him in a bear hug. 'At least I'm taller than her now but still not near as tall as Ron' he thought.
" How was your summer?"
"Good, after a month on Grimmauld Place cleaning and fixing it I can said it's almost fell like home."
"That's great mate." Ron pat me on the back With that we when to the train a new school year start and it
will be our last.
Malfoy Manor, July 30
"I can't take it any more."
"You need to calm down, my dear Dragon."
"But mom..." Draco Malfoy said to his mother, Narcissa Malfoy.
"I know sweetheart, I know how you fell, your frustrated because you haven't any dreams yet about
you mate, but don't worry once your mate become 17 you will start to dream about them." She tell him with a
soft voice. He sigh and with a lost look on his silvery eyes hug his mother.
"Now prepare yourself for bed, it's late and tomorrow will going to see your father"
"Is he alright?" He ask.
"Much better and you don't have to worry Severus is with him and there is always an Auror in his room at
all times." With a nod Draco go to his room. He's always preoccupy that someone will kill his father. Even
after the last battle, in April, went Lucius was discover to be and Spy for Dumbledore. Lucius Malfoy was the
one giving the most important information to Severus Snape and through him Dumbledore and the Order were
successful to stop a good number of attacks from Death Eaters. But there were still a lot of people who wanted
revenge on him. It didn't matter that Lucius almost got kill protecting Harry Potter in the last battle at
Hogwarts, in people eyes he was a Death Eater and deserve to die. He change into silk black pajamas and went
to bed. He lay down and start thinking about his mate. He hope that his mate will love him, that will look
beyond the cold exterior and see the real him a young man with the desire of proving himself with the drive to
obtain what he desire.
Draco found himself walking in a bright forest, and immediately know he was dreaming. He walk until he
reach a clearing with only and old whopping willow. There under the tree sat his mate, he couldn't see his face
there was fog all around them but he know his mate was a male. There was shift and the dreamland change
now he was embracing his mate arms wraps around his waist, he could smell his mate, sandalwood and rose, the
aroma was intoxicating. Draco stay like that hugging his mate afraid that if he move the other will disappear.
Morning came and Draco felt like he has been in heaven, then he remember the dream and his mate, his
beautiful dark hairy mate. For now having his mate in the dreamworld was enough but he know that sooner or
later he will need the contact with his mate in reality.
Draco sit on the last compartment at the back of the Hogwarts Express, After the prefect meeting that he, as
Head Boy, with Hermoine Granger, the new Head Girl, preside went on the regular checks around the train. It
was then that he got for a brief moment the sweet aroma of his mate. He couldn't pinpoint were the aroma came
from there were many people around him, he excuse himself and went to his compartment to avoid everybody
and to keep his allure at minimum. Thinking about what will happen to him is the allure went out of control
didn't make him happy at all. Now with a frown he sat and wait for the ride to end.
By the end of the welcoming banquet Harry was sure that something wasn't right. Looking around the
Great Hall he notice for the first time that Draco Malfoy was absent. 'Where can he be, I know he was on the
train, did someone do something to him?' But his question was left unanswered when the headmaster send them
to bed for the night.
Next morning the Great Hall was busting with life everyone in it were talking to friend s without a care in
the world. Happiness and satisfaction for once reign in everybody. But they were missing people still, because
of the battle last year every house had lose some members but Slytherin has lost the most. A lot of student had
been force by the parents to join Voldemort ranks, it's sad to lose so many children because of their power
hungry and closed minded parents.
"Sev, how much time are we gonna be here? It's been and hour already and nothing."
"Draco." The Potion Master growl to the young in warning. "You were the one to tell the Headmaster that
you smell your mate in the train last night, he make you retire to your news quarters so you could smell no one
until today with the expectation that help you to signal your mate so you gonna wait until the last student get
here." He said to his godson through clench teeth. In that moment Draco's eyes turn from their gray color to a
stunning silver and hide, his allure went on over drive immediately, Severus Snape look up to see not other that
the Golden Boy himself standing looking directly to Draco. Severus was sure that they can't be seen but Harry
most has fell the allure that the veela was using to call his mate.
"It's him." Draco murmur in a soft tone.
"Come we need to tell the Headmaster." Snape took his godson by the arm and drag him to the
Headmaster's office.
"Harry, Harry!!!" Ron Weasley call his best friend. With a shake of his head Harry found himself looking
directly to 'a wall' He though to him self. 'I swear that a moment ago there was somebody standing right there.
With a sigh Harry walk to his seat at the Gryffindor table with his friends. About 10 minutes before breakfast
finish his Head of House, Minerva McGonagall, approach their table to give them their time tables for the year.
"Mr. Potter , the Headmaster want a word with you please go to his office."
"What about my time table?" Harry question her.
"He will give it to you. Now if you excuse me." And with that she left them.
"What will Dumbledore want with you, Harry?"
"No idea 'Moine"
"Well don't waist time, go and see what he wants and then later you can tell us." Ron said with a big grin
on his face.
"Yes, better hurry up so you don't lose to much of you first class." Harry and Ron roll their eyes at the
comment, but both new better and start walking before she could lash at them.
Harry try to think about why Professor Dumbledore want to see him but nothing came to him. By the time
Harry came out of his mussing he was already in front of the gargoyle that guard the Headmaster office. 'I
forgot to ask Professor McGonagall the password 'Harry though to himself.
"Mr. Potter if your finish with your contemplation maybe we can go inside now." Professor Snape said in a
strain polite voice. Harry swirl around surprise that he hadn't here him get behind him. With a blush on his face
Harry move aside to let him go first.
"Ah,Severus, Harry come on in and take a sit, We were waiting for you." The Headmaster said and signal
the empty seats on front of the desk in the middle of his office.
"You have to be kidding me!" Harry sat in shock in front of the Headmaster's desk in his office. With
them was Professor Snape and Remus Lupin.
"I'm sorry Harry but is true" Dumbledore says.
"The mate of one of my classmates..." Harry repeat lightly.
"Yes, the mate of a veela." Dumbledore answer him.
"A..a veela.." He said in a murmur. Dumbledore nod this time, he have a tinkle in his eyes, 'he's taking this
better than I though he would, maybe is a good sing ' he hope.
"Harry, I know is a lot to take but think about it." Remus say going to kneel on front of him.
"But.." He's protest die on his lips as Remus softly shake his head .
"You don't need to decide right now, take the days off, go the the rooms that the headmaster had arrange for
you and him. Don't think about what other would think or do. Think about what you want. Remember, the
mate of a veela have and unconditional love. He will love you and protect you and take care of you. And not
matter what you're answer will be, I love you cub." Harry thought for a moment.
"OK. I... I'll do that." He gave a small smile to Remus. The Headmaster clap his hand getting everybody
attention.
"Well Harry wait outside for Professor Snape he'll take you to your new rooms in a moment" Harry got up
and left the office to wait for Snape on the hall.
"Do you really think he'll accept without knowing who is his mate?" Snape ask to both the present,
Dumbledore simply look at him without saying a word this time he didn't know the answer. Then Snape fix he's
eyes on Lupin he saw something in the others eyes, like he knew some secret.
"He will." Was all that Remus Lupin say and gave Severus a soft smile.
Harry walk behind Professor Snape, quietly trough Hogwarts's halls. They reach their destination on the
second floor of the east side of the castle without trouble, the students where on their second period. They stand
on front of a painting with a beautiful field of multicolor flowers with a sunset a petite brunette sat in the middle
of it, a light blue flowing gown adorn her figure, her long hair (looks like go down to her feet if she were to
stand) in a braid . She have light blue eyes and light skin and pointy ears, clearly she was a High Elf
"Good morning Maeve" Snape say politely to the woman on the painting.
"Good morning to you too Professor" She smile brightly at him.
"Is he the mate?" She ask looking up and down at Harry. He blush under her gaze.
"Yes he is. Mr. Potter this is Maeve the Wanderer Elf, she will be the guardian of your new rooms. The
password is Dreams." The portrait move given access to a hidden wooden door.
"Hope you like your new rooms, Mr. Potter" That was the last thing the painting say to him as he enter the
rooms.
"Well Mr. Potter, you're belongings will be here soon and a house elf will bring your lunch and dinner so
you don't have to go down to The Great Hall. In the morning I'll bring the student so you can talk privately."
With that say he turn and leave with his robes billowing behind him. Harry was left alone with his thoughts.
Draco was getting restless. It has been hours since he was sent to his godfather's quarters. He already owl
his mother giving her the good news, or so he hope, that his mate was no other than Harry Potter. He hope that
his mother would approve of his mate. At that moment Severus Snape enter his personal quarters.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow he'll give his answer." Snape toll Draco with out looking at him wile he serve
himself a glass of firewhisky.
"What?.. but why?"
"Draco. What did you expected? That he 'll said yes without thinking about it. Put yourself in his place.
All his life was decide by other he had no choice on what he'll do with his life or how to live it. Do you really
think he would happily accept the fact that he has no choice on who to love?" With that he sat down and start
with his drink giving his godson time to think about what he just tell him.
"You're right. I would be lucky if he accept me at all."
"Go to you're room and try to sleep. Tomorrow will be the day." Without answering Draco got up and
went to bed. But didn't sleep that night, the worry of Harry's rejection was to much.
Morning came not a moment to soon. Harry wake up early than ever before. He took time to do his
morning routine, he wanted to be presentable for once in his life . He put on in his uniform, perfectly iron
thanks to Dobby (the house elf), black slacks that fit him, white button down shirt with long sleeves, tie properly
done (in gryffindor's colors), black socks(AN-because I don't know of a man that wear white socks with
dressing pants) and polish black dress shoes. To finish it with his school robes. He look himself in the mirror of
the bathroom and for the first time in a long time he like what he saw. A young man with jet black , a bit on the
long side, 'just like Sirius' Harry though, still slightly unruly hair, his skin have a creamy color a bit on the tan
side and green eyes behind round glasses. He was satisfied with himself. He was at peace with him self and
with his decision. He had done what Remus suggested, he took time to think of what he want and for the first
time he didn't let the thoughts of what his friends would think or do rule on his decision. This is his life and for once he will be selfish.
