Last Time:

In our hotel room that night Papa held me close, having rubbed on my bruise cream and rewrapped it. "Happy Birthday little light. Did you have fun?"

"Yes Papa. Thank you!"

"I'm glad. Tomorrow we'll get your heir bracelet, pick up our orders at Twilfitt and Tatting's, get your paperwork and passport from the bank, and then we are headed home to Italy. I promise we will come back here to visit whenever you want."

"I don't want to Papa. I never want to return to Britain."

I twisted and fidgeted in the uncomfortable white plastic airport seat. Papa liked for all of his children to experience all the different styles of traveling, both muggle and magical. So we were flying to Italy. I am terrified, excited, and nervous. This will be a few different first times for me. First time on a plane. First time leaving England. First time going to another country. And my first time going home.

I looked down at the small sterling silver charm bracelet that Papa had purchased for me a few hours ago. All pureblood children got one on their fifth birthday. The bracelet was spelled for different uses. It was a portkey to a safe place and acted a tracker until the child came into their majority (15 for creatures, 17 for others). Once it was put on the child it can never be taken off. Each charm has an actual use though. Such as my three charms. One was a shrunk trunk that had all of my things in it, spelled to resize when I took it off. The potions bag with all of my potions was another and it was spelled to glow blue when it was time to take my potions again. The third was the portkey, it was of the Drago family coat of arms. All I had to do was think or whisper 'Dragons' Keep' and it would take me straight to my rooms in our home, Mastio Del Drago (Dragon's Keep).

"Antonino its time to go."

I looked up at Liano before giving a tentative smile. I allowed him to lead me over to the gate, clutching at my restored blanket and plushies like a life line. Papa had us in First class. My seat was the one between him and Liano. Vio, Ciso, and Rayn were across the aisle. I clutched at Papa and Liano's hands as the plant left the ground. The lift off freaked me out.

Liano moved the armrest between us before moving me so I could bury my face in his chest. He hummed softly and ran his hands through my hair. "Hush little brother. You'll be fine, I have you. Try to get some sleep Nino." I purred into his chest as his large warm hands continued to run through my black tresses. I fell asleep rather easily against him. My body was really weak from all of the malnutrition and child abuse.

The plane landing a few hours later jolted me from my dreams of a smiling red haired woman and a laughing stag-man. I brought my hands up to rub my eyes. That was the first time I hadn't woken from a sleep full of nightmares. I smiled up at Liano, still curled up on his chest.

"Had a good sleep little flower?" I nodded. "That's good little one. Now are you awake enough to walk, or do you want me to carry you? We've landed."

In answer I just held up my thin arms. He grinned before standing with me held against his chest. I held tightly onto Liano's neck as he carried me from the plane. Our brothers walked in front of us and Papa walked beside Liano and me.

As we left the building I was hit with a wave of warm heat. The air was so different from that of England. "Welcome to Italy Antonino. Welcome home." Papa turned to smile at me as he said those words. Home. The mere thought, the mere word bringing tears to my eyes.

"Papa I'm home." I sobbed holding my hands out for the man who had taken me in as his own.

Papa took us to a small covered alley. "Boys use your portkeys. I'll meet you at the manor." He held me tighter and suddenly the world went dark and began to spin. We landed with a lite thud on the ground. Papa somehow landed on his feet with me in his arms.

I groaned and clutched at my head. "What was that Papa?"

"A type of wizarding travel." He answered amused. "We won't travel that way if we can avoid it if it bothers you so much."

"Thank you Papa." I watched amazed as my brothers came spinning out of the sky, landing on their feet beside Papa.

Papa turned once all four of them had landed. "Well little light what do you think of our home?"

My eyes grew large. It was beautiful. A magnificent castle with a forest of tall trees on one side and the ocean at the other. The ocean! It was breathtaking. I stared out at the large endless expanse of blue waves. It was so much better in person than in books.

"With how captivated our little flower is of the ocean I doubt he'll be coming into a Neko inheritance. No cat would like be that excited about seeing water." Ottavio commented. I jerked back to attention, smiling sheepishly at Vio. He grinned at me. "So how do you like the house Nino?"

"It's beautiful." I murmured shyly. "Can we go inside?"

"Sure Lux." Papa put me down and patted my head. "Come on."

I bit my lip. "Papa can I run?" He blinked down at me. "Am I allowed to run to the front door?" I elaborated.

"Sure, why don't you race your brothers?"

I looked over at the four of them in question. Rayn nodded excited. "Yeah we'll race you Nino." And then he was off laughing as he got a head start. With a shout the other three brunettes went chasing after him and after a beat I came running after.

I laughed in delight. I loved to run. The wind in my hair was amazing, and now that it was longer (down to the middle of my back) it flew behind me. Running was freedom. I closed my eyes and just felt as the wind whipped around my face and my brothers' laughter filled my ears. Home, I had a home and brothers. A Papa and a name.

I had known my brothers would beat me. Even though I could run fast because of practice in running from Baby Giant I knew my tiny legs had nothing on the four taller teens. I met them at the front door and together we waited for Papa to catch up to us. He leisurely strolled down the long path to where we waited. I could tell from the fidgeting of the other boys that they were losing patience with Papa. I didn't mind how long it was taking him though. I had learned really early with the Giants to always to patient, quiet, and never expect anything.

I had already received so much in the past few days that waiting didn't bother me. The fact I had a Papa to wait until he catches up was amazing enough. "Shall we head inside boys?" Papa's honey voice washed over me as he gently placed a hand on the small of my back, careful not to startle me. At our nods of agreement Papa led us into the house. I watched in blurred, dazed amazement as they led me through the castle that was now my home. I knew they were talking to me, but everything outside my mind was hazing. I knew I'd have to get another tour since when we arrived at a deep mahogany door I had no idea how we had got there.

Shaking my head to clear the haze I looked up at Papa in confusion. "This is your room little Lux."

My eyes went wide. "My – my room? I have my own room?" I breathed in surprise.

"Well your own rooms to be more accurate. Each of us had our own suite in this hall. Your suite has a bathroom, bed chamber, ante chamber, study and personal library, ritual room, and potion lab. The ritual room and potion lab I have had magically blocked since until you are older and more used to the magical world I do not want you in those rooms alone. If you wish to brew or practice rituals you will either come to me or Massimiliano, is that understood?"

"Yes Papa." I grinned shyly up at him. "Can I see my rooms?" At his encouraging nod I pushed open the large door. The first room, the ante chamber, was amazing. Papa must have had it done after he found out my favorite colors. I knew most people would find my rooms girly and feminine. But I loved purples, pinks, reds, and strangely browns.

The ante chamber was a mixture of browns. Three of the four walls were painted a dark camel color with the fourth accent wall oyster colored. The accent wall was mostly taken up by a large archway that led off into a hallway. Three plush couches sat around a fireplace. The couches were sand colored and made the room seem soft and earthen. The floor was covered in a light camel color shag carpet. I really wanted to just take of my new shoes and curl my toes into the comfy looking carpet. The room was beautiful.

Looking up at Papa with tears at the edge of my eyes I sniffled, "Thank you Papa. I love it."

He laughed, "This is not all little one. Let's go see the rest of your rooms, hmm?"

I nodded eagerly and stepped into the hallway. All four of the doors in the hallway were like the door that led into my rooms. I turned to the first door on the left and opened it. This room was done in rosewood. It was the study and library. The room was large and rounded, all of the walls covered in rosewood shelves. Only a few of which housed books.

"I thought you would like to collect and make your own library." I grinned shakily up at Papa. He was amazing.

All of the other furniture in the room was also done in the same Brazilian dark rosewood; a large desk and chair, two wooden couch frames, and a long table between the two couches. The couches had burgundy cushions with rose and burnt red throw pillows. The chair at my desk was covered in a dark maroon cushion that matched the shag carpet of the floor.

The next room, the one across the hall, which we checked out was my ritual room. Since Papa was there I was able to enter the room. It was strange. The room was made of rose marble. In the center of the room was a circular indent which three stairs led down into. Tons of strange instruments were set up throughout the room that I had no idea how to describe, let alone knew what they were. We left there pretty quickly.

The potions lab which was located next to the ritual room was more comforting to me. It was almost like a medieval kitchen. While I hadn't liked cooking for the Giants I loved to cook. I couldn't wait to use that room. The lab was done in a dark purple marble. The room had four different black marble stone tables. Along one wall was shelves of different styled pots – cauldrons I remembered Vio call them. He and Ciso loved to make potions. The other two walls (not the one with the door) were lined with shelves and cabinets with tons of empty jars, bottles, and vials. Papa told me that once I got the basics of potion making down that we'd see about getting me some beginner potion ingredients.

The last door in the hallway led to what I decided was my favorite room, my bed chamber. The room was done in what Papa said was called the 'Wild Berries' color scheme. The shag carpet in this room was dark blue plum. The room itself was rounded and the walls were amethyst with Japanese cherry blossom trees painted on them. The trunks of the trees were aubergine colored and the blossoms were a bright burgundy.

My bed was inlayed in the wall. It was a rounded canopy bed that had amethyst curtains that matched the walls. The bed itself was about two feet from the floor and was an eight inch thick memory foam mattress. The nook that the bed was cut and laid in had dark blue plum cushions on the walls and a large window. The sheets matched the cushioned walls in the same dark blue plum color. The mountain of pillows were in fuchsia and burgundy while the comforter and three fuzzy blankets were in aubergine.

In the room there were also to wardrobes, a dresser, a vanity with a large mirror, two cushioned high back chairs, and a fire place. All of the furniture was done in rose wood and the high back chairs had heather colored cushions. The fireplace was made out of the same purple marble that was in my potions lab.

Between the two wardrobes was another door. I assumed correctly that it led to my bathroom. The room was done in pinks, including the pink marble. A large six man tub with jets was in the floor to one side of the room. Opposite that was a walk-in shower with ten shower heads that could probably comfortably fit fifteen people inside it. The large body towels in the room were baby pink. The hand towels and wash towels were done in heather and hyacinth. The cabinets above the sink were painted hyacinth, and the sink was bright pink. Runes and flowers were painted throughout the room in fuchsia and heather. Fuchsia shag rugs were placed infront of the entrance to the room, the tub, and the shower, with two more at the toilet and the sink. The toilet was the same bright pink as the sink.

Ciso snickered. "Aw! Your just so adorable baby brother." He drew me into his arms and cooed. "Makes me want to go out and buy you tons of teddies and bunnies, surround you in cuteness. You're going to make such an adorable submissive."

I scowled up at him for a moment before I thought through what he said. "Bunnies?" My eyes got huge. "Can I have a bunny?" I swiveled my head to look up at Papa.

Unknown to me I was using my puppy dog eyes for the first time. Papa hadn't stood a chance, even if he had been going to say no. "Of course little one. We'll go get you a bunny tomorrow."

I beamed up at him. "Thank you! Gratias tibi ago. Ego amare prolis. Gratias tibi ago. Tu velim ad me manere. (Thank you. I love having a family. Thank you. Please let me stay.)" Tears ran down my cheeks.

"Oh little flower." Papa pulled me from Ciso's arms and into his own. "Always. You are our family forever now. We aren't going anywhere and neither are you. Shh, little one. Shh. You have a family and you are loved. Always."
