Written in the form of the Snape-Prince family members talking to a new family member, due to many of their questions wanting to know how the second Wizarding War ended and how it affected their lives personally and privately.
POV: the person is telling their side of things.
"": another speaking during that person's POV.
Prologue: Can you tell me about how this family got started or what made it so strong?
Severus' POV:
It had been a very quiet day here at home, although we had been waiting in the study for the people who were going to be revising the text books for the new students of Hogwarts. Mainly, they were going to ask us our part in the down fall of the Dark Lord. At first I was very hesitant in telling them, but leave it to my wonderful son to convince me that it was finally time to tell the truth about what had happened during the last days of the war. We were just sitting in front of the fire when the doorbell rang out. Of course, my son, who was once known by the name Harry Potter, but now goes by his real name of Hadrian Snape-Prince, jumps up and goes to answer it.
"Father, it is the text book writers. Do you want them to go to the sitting room or the study?"
"Here in the study will be good, Hadrian. Ask them if they would some refreshments?"
"They said that they could go for some nice hot chocolate, considering the weather being as it is right now."
"Okay. I will have Dobby bring us some of the best hot chocolate we have. Hadrian, do you mind guiding them to the study?"
"Not at all, father."
About five minutes later, my son reentered the room with the writers in tow. They began to sit down on the couches and chairs that were available while Hadrian and Draco sat on the floor close to the fireplace. Once Kreacher had delivered to cups of hot chocolate, the writers began to ask their questions about how the down fall of the Dark Lord happened, but explained to them that to understand how the whole plan came into being they would have to hear our whole history. So, I began with how I met my saving grace and how she became mine.
I really don't know where to start in telling you about my story or I should say about my life, because I am still trying to figure out how my mate and maker Asia Nichole was able to draw out all of the venom that Nagini put into my blood veins. She also showed me the truth about my long lost son, Hadrian, who was raised in a hellish upbringing with his aunt and uncle. It wasn't until then when I remembered being married to my best friend and beautiful flower of a girl, Lily. I also learned of the pregnancy and how she extended it magically to fool everyone into thinking that my son was actually James Potter's son just to make sure that it was my own son that killed the Dark Lord.
I guess that is about as good a place to start with this tell of horror, humor, drama, and finally love for all eternity with my son, his mate Draco, and my American vampiress. Yes, Asia Nichole is from the United States, and to be more exact her hometown is Drumright, OK. A crazy little town in the middle of the sticks as she would say. Her love is more valuable to me the all of the gold in Gringotts' Bank. I have been a vampire since Asia saved me from a very painful death after falling unconscious after being attacked by that damn snake familiar of the Dark Lord. That was on the next to last day of the Battle for Hogwarts Castle, four and a half decades ago. At the time, I was forty-three years old and so when you add the extra time to my former age, it makes me eighty-three years old. I have to say that being a vampire does have its perks like not aging, and having more magical power than a normal wizard.
Harry/Hadrian's POV:
What father is forgetting to tell you is that all of us will be putting in our opinion from time to time. Like right now, I am putting in my opinion because I think it is needed to truly understand the whole hellish part of this tale. Sorry, dad. The war that he was talking about had actually started back when I was a year and a half old after the first time I defeated the Dark Lord. Many of his followers also know as Death Eaters, tried for many years to resurrect him by different rituals and spells. The only one that worked was the one they did in the graveyard. It was also the one that cost Cedric Diggory his life, but when I was forced to duel that insane arsehole, his spirit along with those of my mum and supposed dad, and the muggle caretaker join with me to help as best as they could from the realm of the spirit. They bought me some time to get out of there along with Cedric's body. At the time, I was angry when I saw my father there, but at the time I didn't know that he was my father. Now, I find my father as a very brave man who went the distance to make sure that the side of the Light won against the maniac known as the Dark Lord.
I also have Asia Nichole to thank for saving the one parent I had left even though at the time I did not know he was my true father. I have also over the time since she saved my father come to think of her as my step-mother and really she did step into that role the moment she became my dad's mate. I love as such because she thinks of me as her son and my wonderful mate as her son-in-law. I am very grateful for all that she has done for the three of us. I guess I should let my father tell you the rest of his story.
Severus' POV:
Thank you, son. I mean it is my life that I was talking about, but I promise I won't forget to tell them about how we reacted to the news that we were related to each other. Baby-bat. Yes, I said your nickname out loud and that is because I can. Yes, I am always going to call you that and I will always call Draco, the Snow-bat. Yes, because of his snowy white fur. I did not need to look at my son to know that he was glaring at me while shooting daggers out of his eyes and I also knew that Draco was totally embarrassed that I had said his nickname out loud too, because it had been a running joke between us all. Of course, Asia and Hadrian laugh their asses off about it and I had to just join in.
Chapter One: What was the last days of the war like?
Still Severus' POV:
I was quickly able to get my laughter under control. Once that was accomplished, I began to tell the writers my side of the story and of how I was working for both sides, but mainly for Light side, even though, I had to kill Albus Dumbledore on his command to get the Dark Lord to trust me enough to let me in on the true reason for the war and boy did I get more than I bargain for. Mind you that Albus was already dying as it was from a curse that he had gotten hit by and I was the only one that could slow his death down. He said that it had to happen at the right time and not a moment sooner, because it would all of his great planning out the window. I had asked him if it had ever occurred to him in that brilliant mind of his that I might be done or tired being a pawn in his game of living Wizard's chess. After Albus' death and I had gained the Dark Lord's trust, I had to watch as that bastard feed one of my co-workers to that damn snake of his named Nagini. I had nightmares for a week over that and I had to watch what I did and said for the next couple of weeks. A month after that is when I was able to get a message out safely to my son and his friends telling them what I could about how to destroy the Voldemort. I just prayed that the plan would work and not backfire in my face, because I was trying to protect him as I had promised his mother. We had devised a plan to let him get captured, but he had Dobby the house elf as back up in case it got a little hairy. Let me be the first to tell you it did. I mean just before Hadrian and his friends were captured by the werewolves who were led by Fenrir Greyback, he had Hermione do a spell that made him look like he had had the shit beat out of him. He also told them not to fight too much because this part of a plan to get close enough to the Dark Lord to assess his weaknesses and strengths. Leave it to Draco to almost blow it to high heavens, but then he proved his true alliance was to Hadrian and the side of the Light. As the spell began to wear off, Hadrian grabbed a hold of Draco and took his wand away from him, which no longer listened to him anyway because he had been beaten by Hadrian up in the Astronomy Tower just before the death of Dumbledore. Before making their escape thanks to Dobby, Hadrian threw a stunning curse at Bellatrix and threw Draco to the side as he yelled to stay close to his father.
As Dobby was able to get them out of Malfoy Manor, Bellatrix had thrown a dagger at the apparating group and from what I was told the brave little house elf known to one and all as Dobby was laid to rest on the top of a hillside looking out at the ocean or a lake of some sort. That elf's death is the one death that still to this day eats at me, because it could have been prevented, but Dobby had become a lot like his hero. He was brave no matter what the cost to him would have been. I may have thought that he was an annoying little thing, but I have to say one thing about that elf. Ever since my son freed him from the Malfoy family, he stayed a true friend to Hadrian to the day of his death. I wish I could say the same about my son's other friends. I mean the moment that they found out that he was not James' son, but in all reality mine, they abandoned him. Thank Merlin that it happened after the war was over.
Back to the question at hand, the last days of the war were hell on all of us, but none more so than Hadrian because the weight and fate of the world rested on his young shoulders. He always blamed himself for the deaths of his friends and protectors. On the final day, the day he would go toe to toe with Voldemort in the fight to end all fights, I was hiding in the shadows of the rumble of the already destroyed half of the castle watching in hope that he would be the victor as Dumbledore had always seen him to be. I have to say that watching Neville Longbottom cut Nagini's head off in one swipe was very impressive and he used the sword of Gryffindor to do so. I am still to this day very grateful to that young man for killing the monster that cost me my human life, but in a way I have a way better vampiric life now with Asia. I know you are wondering how I ended up being a vampire. I guess it is time to let everyone know what happened in that old boathouse of the school.
As you all know, Voldemort had ordered Nagini into attacking me the night before, but what none of us knew was there a very beautiful American vampire resting in the boathouse, under the floor. When Hadrian and his friends left that is when Asia came out of hiding and found me on the very brink of dying. At first, all I saw was a figure that was in a hooded cloak that was not all that tall. I could hear her talking to me and telling me to stay calm so that she do what she had to do to save me. She somehow was able to pull the venom out of my blood before she made me a vampire. When I came to about four hours later, she was waiting on me patiently to start freaking out, but I stayed rather calm and began asking her the questions that were running through my head. As she answered my questions, that was when I noticed her looks. Her long jet black hair with the blood red streaks, her bright emerald green eyes that rivaled those of my son's, and her petite 5'4" frame was enough to make me weak in the knees with just one look.
Asia's POV:
I was very surprised at how calm he was and that he seemed to be able to handle becoming a vampire so easily. I had to explain how I was able to pull the venom out of his blood about three times before he just finally gave up trying to understand the complexity of it. To say that I blew his mind would be putting it mildly. That was when I noticed that he was checking me out openly, which, I did not mind since I had been doing the same thing about him. I could tell that this British gent had to be at least 6'3"tall and about 225lbs. I also could see just how jewel like his obsidian eyes were, how beautiful his soft hair was, and how his skin just glowed with the light of the moon. Then he noticed that I had an accent that wasn't British by any means. When I told him that I was from the United States, he was shocked that I would be so far from home. I told him that my vampire sire was from England. He nodded like he understood why I was there finally. It was then that I noticed just how handsome of a vampire that he made and I had to hide the blush that was now on my cheeks. I was so into my own thoughts that I did not see him get up off the floor and dust himself off. It wasn't until I saw a hand in front of my face that I realize that he was standing up. I had to jumped a little from shock and then I looked up into his face with a slightly shy smile. He had the audacity to laugh at me over the fact that I was a tad bit shy, so I slapped him across the abdomen muscles to make him stop laughing at me. It didn't work because he really started laughing at me.
"Sorry, love."
Of course, I have always forgiven him for all of his crazy antics over the years. Believe it or not, back in his years at Hogwarts as a professor, he was very strict with his students. He was the most with both Draco and Hadrian that was before he found out that Hadrian was his son. Before that Hadrian was known by the name of Harry Potter, 'The Boy-Who-Lived-Twice. He was also main one who destroyed the maniac once known as Voldemort. I was the one who showed the two the truth about their relation to each other and to say that watching the two rebuild the bond between them was amazing would be putting it lightly because there was plenty of tears from both of them along with pleas of forgiveness. In all of my years, I have never seen anything that could have made as happy as I was that day just to know that I had help bring a family partly back together. I really didn't expect to be thanked by them with hugs and kisses, but I have to say that was the best thank you I have ever received from anyone.
"We are always going to be grateful to you, mom. No matter how much time has past, because if it had not been for you, I never would have known that I was the son of the youngest Potion Master in a century. He would never had known that his only son was as brave and crazy as he is. I mean, he was a double agent for the Light side and it almost cost him his very own life."
"Yeah, what Hadrian said. Besides, I always knew that my Uncle Severus was brave, but I never would have guessed him to be crazy, too."
"I am not crazy nor have I ever been crazy, my beloved son-in-law. I was just following my instincts and orders from both sides."
"And you don't call that crazy? Please that is just about as nuts as how my father reacted to me coming out and telling him that I was gay and already mated to Hadrian."
"Let's not go there, Draco, because then we would be opening a whole other can of worms on that one."
They are all right about you, love. You are one of the bravest men I have ever known, but you can act a little bit crazy at times. That is for another time though, we were talking about our part in the downfall of dumbass Voldemort and how it affected our lives personally. I think the biggest shocking surprise came as the lifeless body of Voldemort hit the ground, because a combination of two werewolf packs came apparating into the courtyard in amongst us wizards. Of course, we knew it was about to happening because my sisters Nikki and Danielle along with our cousin Roman from Las Vegas, NV were about to make an appearance and they made one hell of entrance. I tell you this when my sisters told us about the reaction Fenrir had when he laid eyes on Nikki, I thought Severus was going to end up pissing himself over it because he was laughing so hard and he had tears in his eyes. Then they told us about Roman's reaction to one of Fenrir's omegas named Nicholas. We thought that they were joking until we saw how protective he proved to be when a few of the younger wizards and witches went to turn on them. Roman, who stands 6'8" tall, pulled poor Nicholas, who stands 5'6" tall, behind him as if to protect him. He even began to growl lowly at them as if to warn them that the werewolves were on their side for once. Luckily, McGonagall was able to convince everyone that they safe from the wolves. Once all of the wands were put up into their holsters, Roman let Nicholas come out from behind him. That was when we saw how truly much our cousin was in love with Nicholas in such a short time.
"Speaking of cousin Roman, him and Nicholas are going to drop by sometime soon, luv. I am looking forward to seeing them," Severus says as the floo-bell rings while heading towards his favorite chair with a glass of blooded firewhiskey. "That might be them now."
I will go and let them in through the floo, meanwhile just keep talking to our youngest adopted son.
Chapter Two: How did your lives change after the war?
Hadrian's POV:
All I will say one thing about werewolves now that I have had them in my family for the last eight decades, is that they are very good at being able to break curses naturally. There was a lot to do to try and rebuild Hogwarts because it was nearly destroy completely in some areas. A lot of the curses that had been thrown at the castle had been very dark in nature and in a way we were grateful for all of the help the werewolves gave us in breaking the majority of the curses. It also took a lot of hours of work from the curse-breakers to set the portraits, the ghosts, and the stones of the castle themselves free. During the months that we had to wait for Hogwarts to reopen for schooling is when dad, mama Asia, and I sat down to have a very long talk about the things that been told to me about who my parents were. It was at this point that Asia told me how she was able to save my dad and how she found the blocked memory of my dad, Severus, who had been married to my mother for two years before they found out that she was pregnant with me. They let me look at the memory in penseive so I could see that they telling the truth. When I came out of the memory, I jumped on top of my dad and started crying like a little child that wanted to be comforted by their daddy.
"I was shocked at first, but that quickly left when I heard my son's tears because I knew deep in my heart that he had been hurting for so long for a parent to love him and hold him as he let the pains of the past leave his body. I also made a promise to take revenge on Petunia and her family for the way they treated my poor son and also for the beatings they gave him. I wrapped him up in my arms and rocked him until he calmed back down. I will never forget the word he kept on repeating while he was crying, and that was Papa. My heart still swells with joy every time I hear him say it, no matter how old he gets. Yes, he will always be my baby boy no matter what."
I hope to hear that term come from my own children sometime in the future. Yes, we have hit our vampire sexual maturity level and we have been sexually active dad. Okay, back to what I was saying before hand. We talked until I finally fell asleep in my dad's arms because I did not want to get out of them for one thing and for second I felt safe for the first time in my life, I don't know if it was the exhaustion of the months spent on the run, the final showdown, or the fact that my health was never as it should have been in the first place. When my dad laid me in my bed, he cast a diagnosis spell on my sleeping form to see what needed to be done and he was very worried about me.
"What do you expect me to be? You were malnourished, you had badly healed bones, not to mention your bone density level was down, and finally you were coming down with the flu. I gave you all of the potions that I knew to give you, but you still came down with the flu and we took care of you non-stop. Hell, we almost got into a knock down drag out fight with Draco because he wanted in the same room with you. I kept saying no until he finally told us the truth about you two being mates. It wasn't until he was finally allowed into the room did you finally start getting better."
"You should have realized that when I would not give up in the first place, dad. Mates rely on each other to help each other to heal from sicknesses that are pretty common."
"Who is this young one," came a deep rumbling baritone voice from the doorway.
"Hey there, all of you and come on in. Well, Fenrir, this is the newest family member. This is Nathan Starcross. He just came out of his healing slumber that he needed after being changed. We found him near death's doorstep after his former boyfriend now ex beat the shit out of him. You should have seen him with all of the bruises, cuts, and scars that littered his body. It was an awful sight," Severus said. "Hey, who is the shy young man that is hiding behind you and your mate?"
"This is our youngest adopted son, Devin Ferryman-Greyback, but he prefers just going by Devin Greyback. He kept saying that his mate was not a werewolf, but was in fact a very young vampire. He kept dreaming of stars crossing the mid-night skies and leave streaks all over the place."
"Papa, that is him. That is my mate. I just know it by the smell of him. Hi, Nathan. My name is Devin Greyback. Can we go talk somewhere away from the others. I am sure they can finish telling you about your new family history later. I really need to talk to you."
"Sure, Devin. I would like that very much. Can we finish our talk later?"
"Yes, we can," Severus said as the new pair walked out the back door to go talk somewhere a little more private. "Fenrir, I think that Devin has lost his shyness."
"Yes, I believe you are right, brother. Of course, his shyness is only second to that of Nicholas' just before meeting Roman. I mean you should have seen it, but the day he met Roman for the first time, I thought he was going to piss all over himself just to get Roman to notice him. I will tell you that it did not take long for Roman to notice Nicholas' sweet face because the second that Roman walked into the room where I was to meet up with Nikki Lynn, Nicholas let out a whimper of submission that only a mate makes to attract the attention of their intended mate. Roman focused in on the sound to find Nicholas looking at him like he was trying to look every bit the innocent wolf he was."
"So Roman, how fast did that sound catch your attention?"
"I thought I was hearing an angel call to me, only to finally find my mate standing there looking so sweetly innocent. I walked over to him and marked him as mine so that no other could try to take him from me."
"You gave him the mate mark right in front of his alpha without so much of a greeting or mentioning your intention towards Nicholas. You are either brave or crazy, then again you could be both at the same time."
"Hey, sometimes you just have to do what you got to do. Even if it is to step right on the toes of the most powerful werewolf in all of Europe just to get to your mate. Of course, I think he understood my intentions because he sure as hell did not stop me from claiming my sweet little mate. Oh, by the way. Fenrir, you are going to be a grandsire because my beloved Nicholas is pregnant with pups."
"Are you kidding me?! That is great news, Roman! Congratulations, man," Fenrir said as he gave both Roman and Nicholas a hug as if to say that he was happy for the two of them. "I was hoping that there would be grand-pups soon before I was too old to enjoy them."
"You are in no way an old wolf yet," Roman said with wry grin on his face.
"I am older than you think. Oh, speaking of pups. Nikki is pregnant with newest litter of pups and this make our fourth litter."
"Congratulations, you old dog."
"My mate is not a dog, but he is a very sexy old wolf."
"Hey, Nikki. Look at you. Are you almost done baking those pups?"
"I am beyond done baking these pups. I am a week over due right now."
"So you are due any time now."
"Yep."
"I am starting to worry about the pups being in there too long. They could be born still born, which I hope doesn't happen because I have seen what it can do to a couple."
As if talking about what could happen to the pups was enough to send Nikki into labor because she let out a blood curdling scream when the first contraction hit her at full force. It was enough to cause Fenrir to nearly jump out of his skin and piss himself at the same time. It also caused every member of the very large family to come running back into the sitting room to see what was going on. After finally regaining his wits, Fenrir started barking orders to the other pack members around. Soon as all of the orders were given, all of the blankets surrounding the Alpha couple as if they were in whelping nest. With Severus sitting calmly in a chair near the couple who had any medical training at all.
"Darling, please forgive me for being jumpy about ten minutes ago, but you just about scared the shit out of me," Fenrir said a little sheepishly.
"Hell, I think I can speak for everyone here when I say that she just about scared the shit out of all of us," Devin said while still hugged up to his new mate Nathan.
Fenrir's POV:
It was at this point that I noticed that my youngest adopted son and my brother-in-law's youngest adopted son were both sporting identical marks on the side of their necks. I nudge Severus in the shoulder to get him to notice what I had only to have him shake his head like he gave up on trying to reign in his youngest son already. I began to think it was going to be mission impossible to keep the two young men apart now that they had laid a claim on each other. It was only when my Nikki gave a hellish scream that I came out of my musings about Devin and Nathan to realize that I was about to be a papa again real soon.
"Nikki, baby, it will be over soon. Just think about our beautiful pups that are coming. I know you are in a lot of pain right now, but it will be well worth it in the end, won't it," I say in a calming voice.
"Only if you don't come anywhere near me with your cock outside of your jeans."
"I promise you this for two years like always, my darlin'."
"Then yes, it will be well worth it in the end. Oh shit. I think the harder contractions are fixing to start coming."
"How long have you been having minor contractions?"
"Since waking up this morning. Why?"
"You have been in labor for at least twelve hours already. That is why, my dear."
"So, these pups have been moving down into position all day and it is just now that they have gained enough strength to give me the signal that they are ready to be born? Talk about some lazy puppies and they get that from you, Fenrir."
"Yes dear, I agree with you. I can be a bit lazy when I want to be."
The labor and delivery took most of the day, but by the evening Nikki had given me four beautiful newborn pups. Two of them were going to be strong Alpha males while the other two were going to be two very strong will females. My daughters were going to be spitting imagines of their gorgeous mother while their brothers are going to be scrappers just like me. I have to say that when I look at them I can't help, but wonder what the future holds for them all and I also hope that they will be able to find their mate.
"Fenrir, what has gotten your full attention?"
"I am just wondering what the future holds for our children and hope that everything is going to be fine. So, did you name our babies yet?"
"The first male is Fenrir Tobias Jr. while the second boy is John Remus. The first girl Alexis Leigh and the last is Shawnee Marie. What do you think?"
"I love them all, the names and the children."
"I am just glad that they made it safely and that you are still here as well, sis. I don't Fen would have lived a very full life if you had passed on after birthing the pups. In fact, I think he would have just given up living without you. Am I right, Fen?"
"Yes, my life has been so changed since you became a part of it. There is no way that I could live it alone again. I would not want to try to do so because I would not know where to begin."
I gathered my mate and our pups into my arms as if to hold them to me so that they knew that I meant what I had just said. Just the thought of what could have happened made a cold chill run down my spine and it was the only thing that could make this old Alpha's heart feel the fear of losing everything that meant everything to me. I think my Nikki could feel that I had been holding in my absolute fear of losing her and our kits because she tightened her arms around my neck as if to let me know that I had not lost her or the pups. I felt my inner wolf calm down and relax while becoming peacefully at ease with everything along with everyone. I knew that my extended pack would help us in everyway possible, but I still felt the need to get confirmation from them.
"I can count on you all to help with raising these four pups for the first few months."
"Yes, you can count on us for the extra support so that the pups are well taken care of and that you all of the time you to heal up."
I notice that both Nicholas and Devin were sitting on one of the loveseats watching the whole situation go down. Just trying to figure out when it would be a good time to ask us, their fathers, when could they be bonded to each other before they mate under the next full moon.
"What is it you want ask boys," Severus asked with a knowing smirk gracing his face.
"Well, we were just wanting to know when could it be possible for someone to officiate a bonding ceremony between us. We would like to be bonded before the next full moon."
"How about two days from today?"
"Perfect by us and we are just as ready to start our own little family."
"Well, we have a lot to get done in two days. Hope you weren't expecting to have a large event."
"Nope just our family is fine with us. Besides, the days before the full moon everyone is starting to get crabby and moody."
"Boy, ain't that the truth."
The preparations for the wedding were quickly made and the two young men reassured their families that they knew what they doing along with the fact that they destined for each other for the fortieth time before the event took place. The hour of the wedding had finally came and they were standing in front of a makeshift altar holding each other's hand as Severus officiated their ceremony.
