Harry and Draco had stayed like that for about 20 minutes, Dracos large hands had run up and downteh thin back drawing circles and other odd patterns, in a motion to sooth the boy. Harry's crying had now turned to hiccups, his nose burried up in the junction between Draco's neck and shoulder. "its about time you got some answers don't you think?" the blonde mummbled, a lump stuck in his throat, he wanted to grab the boy for all he was worth and hold him, but he knew that would frighten him, after all they had just met.
Blinking when he realised that Harry had pulled back and was now staring at him with a tilted head. "ah, right..go ahead.." Giving harry some space, the Green eyed boy twiddled his thumbs, "..why did...those two" he glanced towards the door "why did they save me?" setling his eyes back onto the blonde, Harry chewed on his bottom lip. "I'm a freak..I've never met you guys before..you shouldn't have even known that I needed...that I needed saving so how?"
Draco sighed heavily, rubbing the bridge of his nose with his forefinger and thumb, obviously his mate did not know of Magic, and therefor does not know of Magical creatures and therefor not know of the bond that they shared. "..have you ever noticed Harry, that there are moments when you've wanted something so badly, or been so angry that somehting bizzare has happened?" when the boy's eyes widened ever so slightly, Draco took that as his quee to carry on. " you are a wizard Harry, Magic folk" sensing Harry's breathing physically stop for a second or two, Draco rose a perfectly shaped brow and stared at him. "I'll let you process that infromation for a few minutes, in the mean time listen..within the magical world, there are magical beings, creatures, buildings and objects..where there is all of that, there is also the link of soul bonds, and mytical bonds" Harry's mouth opened to ask what this had to do with his orginal question but Draco's fingers placed themselves over his dry lips. "i'm getting there, hold your broomsticks..this all leads to your question..they came to save you because I needed you to be saved..we hold a bond..didn't you ever wonder why I was able to speak in your head while you were sleeping?" with a soft chuckle, draco finsihed his explanation.
Harry however was far from done, "If that's so...then..wait what?..We hold a bond?..like...Mates?...like what animals are?..." when the blonde nodded, Harry slumped into the desk more, his body almost folding in on itself. "..so...does that mean I'm going ot be more of freak then now?" his voice was small, almost non-existant. Draco grabbed at the boys wrists and brought the hands up to his lips, placing soft Kisses over each knuckle before cupping them to his chest. "..you are not a freak here...this is the your world..you were obviously born in one of the Magical realms..otherwise you wouldn't be able to form a bond like this..you will become a Veela Harry, Just like I have...just like my pop's and Father..now they didn't look scary did they?" thinking of his Pop's Draco grimaced. "well..I don't frighten you do I?"
Squinting his eyes, Harry took in the figure before him, "well no..but...are you what a Veela looks like?".
Draco didn't look scary, nor did he scream anything other than Human. He blinked in surprise when the blonde started to laugh under his breath. "W-w..what's so funny?" he began to get paranoid, wiggling and tugging his hands free from the boys own. He made a struggled sound at the back of his throat when the long pale fingers tightened around his damaged ones. "Harry..Harry, calm down….you just looked at me like I was crazy for asking..I am a full fledge Veela..I told you about the magic right?..well im a wizard..we all are here..I have covered..well more so glamoured my appearance with a spell" when green eyes looked up at him in confusion and disbelief, Draco's figure shimmered before melting to the floor in a quick sheet of dust.
Leaving behind the Veela version, Long blonde hair, set perfectly over a firm pair of pale shoulders, skin held an even paler white complection, teeth pointed and deadly, eyes slit like a snakes yet brightened in colour like melted silver. Harry could make out the tips of pointed ears through partways in the blonde locks, a gasp had left his throat though not in disgust, the creature before him was beautiful. Managing to get his hands free, Harry shrunk back, noting the slight flinch the blonde gave to such movement, He gathered up the courage, knowing it was the wizard who had helped him, and slid his small hands into blonde strands.
A smile etched onto a tanned face as a small purr elicted from the blondes throat, silver eyes were now hiden behind long thin eyelashes, head tilted up into the hand in his hair. A small "..ah.." bought the blonde out of his trance, eyes snapping open, hands automatically gripping at the boys sides, face inched closer to look him over. "whats the matter?". Harry couldn't help but giggle "..the cuts..they..it really is magic" green eyes lowered to glance at the wrist that lay in his lap. "..yes Magic..but enough about that..im guessing you have more questions?".
Glancing back up into the face of the blonde, noses almost touching, Harry felt himself lean forward, their foreheads bumping together, his breath got caught up in his throat. "you're..not normal..you are different to the rest..everyone else..gives me unease..I feel..calm with you…." Dracos face split out into a grin, apparently that had been a very good thing to say because the blonde tilted his head, their noses slipping past each other as his lips reached a distance of a breath away from Harry's own. "….your father also..he's the same". Draco moved back automatically, a frown set upon his face. "I don't want to be the same..I am not my father,..my father is most definatly not me! And I do not want us to be the same to you….no..we are not the same!" the frown deepened, to a degree that frown lines took over his cheeks and brows. "….why do I feel this then?" Harry clenched at the blonde locks that still lay in his fingers, tugging at them gently to try and get his question answered, as well as a slight fear he felt towards the blondes now raised voice.
"we are…how you say..mated like what animals have.." Draco sighed out, untangling the hand from his hair and setting it back into Harrys lap, Draco started to pace. "..my father and I hold the same scent..except mine also holds a degree of Pop's scent and my own..just like DNA..quater fathers, quarter pop's Half mine…I guess you would be more calmed by Fathers due to myself taking after him more genetically…" sparing a glance towards the boy, Draco registered the look of recognistion and carried on talking. "..due to our mate bond..I will calm you..just as you will clam me..each others touch will immediately give relief and push away and stress..the dominant is built to be the shield to it's submissive..and the submissive it built to heal and contain the dominant.." seeking the question that was about to roll off of the black haired boys tounge, Draco carried on.
"yes, the roles have already been chosen, and I do know of who is who..though it should be easy to figure out..the Veela submissive will be smaller in size and be the younger of the two.." with a small smirk, Draco pointed a talonded finger at the boy. "My dear Harry..that would be you" Letting the smirk fall off his face, Draco took on a more serious look. "of course this doesn't mean anything in terms of who you will eventually end up with..feelings are also taken into account in these types of situations..the only thing that you cannot do is physically harm one another.." taking in the look that the smaller male gave him, Draco sighed lightly. "I'm overloading you with information?" Harry blinked and sent a flustered look up at the blonde. "My apologises, I was merly answering to the best of my knowledge.." silver eyes took in the boys body, noting that he was fully healed in terms of cuts and bruises, the malnutrition potions will have to be taken twice daily to help build him back up to the rightful size of his age. "hey..Draco..you said that those men were your father and pop?..right?...where's your mother?" with a tilt of his head, Harry furrowed his brows in deep confusion, sliding off the desk weakly as the blonde bent over in mild shock and humor. "Draco?"
"..My father Is my mother…he carried me for 7 months and gave birth to me..he is in every sense of the word my mother" placing a hand to his stomach, Draco had to shuffle back another laugh as he reminded himself that Harry was not bought up in this world.
"Males in the wizarding world, can produce offspring..but only when placed with a partner who shares a bond with them..it's something to do with the magic being of a perfect match, they come together and produce a child within the submissive..when in physical..relationship.." placing his fingers together in an awkward manner, Draco felt his cheek take on a small faint pink tint. Coughing away the awkwardness, draco allowed himself to move to the other ide of the room, fumbling with a few bottles in a large wooden cuboard, mouth set in a thin line as he set to turning his concentration to sorting the boys medcines out for what he guessed was a long stay.
"..back.." came a small mummer from behind him, blonde locks wiped around as silver teal eyes turned to look at the brunette still standing in the middle of the room. "..I don't have to go...back..to that place...to them...right?" a small rise of understanding set onto the blondes face as he took in that smalll almost scared voice, a small shake of his head was all the brunette needed for he was smiling brightly a second later. "..thank godness.."
The veela frowned, he would have to get his fathers to put the memories in the pensive, he wanted to know what went on in that house, wanted to know why the boy was so afraid to go back, I mean he could tell from the conditon of the boys body that he was mistreated, but Draco needed to know..he felt a tug in his stomach as he turned to face sad boy.
"..I suppose I should show you to your room then?..no more questions today..just get lots of rest..I can answer for you tomorrow." extending his free hand, as his other was holding a small basket of postion, Draco grasped the boys small tanned hand, making their way downteh hall and up the large staircase. ignoring the glances of the two man entangle in each other on the couch.
"..Harry's healed and I suggest he gets to bed.." Draco stopped, not glancign back even as harry stopped a second later by bumping in to his broad back. "...Thank you Father..Pops..for finding him" teal eyes met silver and blue as he spared a quick look over the stair case. Green eyes blinked in confusion as he was once again swept up the stairs and down another long hallway.
