If you don't like slash, turn back now.

Warning- Draco/Harry later on. Talk of abuse and rape too. Not descriptive with the rape part though.

There will be other slash couples later on in the story.

I only own the story. Harry Potter and all the characters in this story, belong to JKR.


Pain, fear, loneliness... Healing, hope, Love

Chapter 4. Amazement

Harry's legs fell beneath him, but, before he hit the ground he was caught by κηδεμόνας,who just smiled brightly at him his eyes twinkling.

Harry couldn't help it. "Are you always so happy and bright looking?" he blurted. Then he clamped a hand over his mouth. His eyes wide open. "S-sorry!" he stuttered, horrified at what he just blurted.

And, to his surprise, κηδεμόνας laughed. His laugh was deep and amused. Then once, he was done talking, he looked at Harry, with more of a gentle look. "It's alright, child. But, yes, I'm usually always happy and bright," κηδεμόνας stated, kindly. His eyes sparkled with mirth.

Harry blushed and nodded. "Okay." he squeaked. With his eyes on the ground, he bit his bottom lip nervously.

Κηδεμόνας shook his head."Come child. There so little time to show you everything," he said strolling forward.

Harry blinked and scrambled after him. "What do you mean so little time?" he asked, in a rather confused tone. His eyes scanning the area around him, it was plainly beautiful. He and κηδεμόνας were in the front yard of Μητέραshome. The home it's self was a very large castle. And surrounding it was flower beds and trees. But, these plants weren't the normal kind of plant. No, for the trees had silver bark, golden leaves and white apples. And the flowers were in all shapes and sizes. Harry wandered over to one of the flower beds, his eyes showed utter shock. The flower beds was black, almost dead looking but, it had flowers on it, the flower petals were light red and the stem, was gold colored but, what really surprised him, was the blood over flowing a bit out of each of the flowers.

Κηδεμόνας tilted his head and he grabbed two apples, before walking over to Harry. He then smiled when he saw what the child was gawking at. "These are blood flowers. Some of us need blood, like a vampire of sorts but, we aren't vampires." He said sternly, before once again smiling. "See the blood pools in the center of the flower and drips off. But, we use our magic to make the blood never touch the ground. We don't want stains of blood everywhere now do we?" he questioned, watching the boy. 'Also, we only drink the blood out of the flower. Once the blood is drunk, the flower turns pure white, and then most of us use it as decorations around our homes, because they're magnificent when pure white." Κηδεμόνας finished.

"Cool," Harry breathed grinned at him. "Can… can I have one?"

"Of course you can. Now, eat this apple while I get your flower," κηδεμόνας said handing Harry one apple.

Harry bit into it and he jumped in surprise. Before swallowing and staring mutely at his apple.

Concern flashed in κηδεμόνας eyes what's wrong? Do you not like it?" he asked, quickly.

"No… but, it tastes… like my favorite candy…" he trailed off blushing, clearly thinking that he was going insane.

Κηδεμόνας laughed. "Don't scare me like that!" he exclaimed, grinning, "And, it's supposed to taste that way, little one," he stated. Then he handed Harry his flower.

"Come, let's go explore, Μητέραs house,"Κηδεμόνας said brightly.

Harry grinned and the two ran up the house steps and into the large home.


The group around Μητέρα stared at her, horror and utter shock filled their eyes.

"That… how would do such a thing to a child!" she exclaimed shaking her head as tears fell.

"Muggles can. Muggles like him anyway. Not all are like him, which is a good thing," Μητέρα said in a calm manner.

Draco sat looking dazed and sad. "I… my mate," he whispered brokenly. Then he looked at Μητέρα, with pleading eyes. "Can, can I see him? Please?" he begged.

Μητέρα looked sadly at him. "I'm afraid not, young one. Soon though, that I promise." she replied, as gently as she could. Then she knelt in front of him. "He needs to heal and learn about what he is, and so do you. So, while he's away being taught, you'll be taught." She said, with a smile.

Draco gazed at her in a thoughtful way, before a large smile broke out onto his face. "Okay. Can we start now?" he asked, in an excited way.
