Last time:
As soon as he had released the last jet of cum inside her, a bright white light encased them both, causing them to black out immediately. The last part of the bond was taking place, the merging of the two bodies and souls would soon be complete
Now:
The next morning, Lucius woke up with a feeling of relief, like he knew he would be alright living the life as a Vampire. He reached over to Hermione to wake her, but noticed instantly that she wasn't breathing.
"Shit" he yelled as he checked for a pulse and found nothing. "SAMY!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. A small elf appeared with a bow, "Yes, Master, hows can I helps you?"
"Get the Malfoy healer...Immediately!"
"Yes Master" the elf replied and winked out.
Lucius ran back to the bed and noticed her lips were a blue color and her skin seemed to be almost pasty. "What went wrong?" he asked sullenly as he sat on the edge of the bed. A few minutes later, the healer appeared with a smirk on his face.
"I see you've completed the second part of the bond." the healer stated.
"It killed her, I don't know what went wrong." Lucius replied
"Nothing went wrong, she is alive but her vitals are very week...It is normal after the second part of the bond and she will be awake within 12 hours."
Lucius slumped back on the bed and breathed in deeply, "Why is it that I've not read anything about this part of it?"
"Not everything is printed Lucius, Very little is known about blood mates and binding as most Vampires take blood from whoever they can find. They are subject to more diseases and their health is usually affected greatly which is why I suggested you find a blood mate."
"What else should I know about this? I have no idea now if everything I've read is even true."
"Give me a run down and I will tell you to the best of my knowledge." The healer stated.
"From what I've read, there are two parts to the binding, once the second part is complete, we are bonded for life. I've read she cant be more the 50 feet from me unless I leave her and I know that after the binding, she will willing give me her blood."
The healer nodded, " True for the most part. Your blood mate will give you her blood as she will feel your needs and hunger. Your blood mate will protect you when needed as you will with her. The bond allows you to feel each others emotions, if she's in fear, you will go to her, if you have fear, she will go to you, it's almost like a pact. Now the part that isn't true, is that she cant leave you. A blood mate is not a prisoner and after the second part of the binding, she can come and go at will."
At those words, Lucius paled, "I'm as good as dead."
"Don't be so dramatic Lucius, it doesn't suit you. I can assure you she will return when she feels your hunger, she will come to you when she feels your lust or need for her. You have nothing to fear."
Lucius gave a nod, trusting his healers words.
"Now I suggest you keep watch over her until she wakes. She will be confused, but she will no longer try to escape you." the healer paused, "And if she wants to leave the manor, allow her that privilege, she will be there when you need her."
Lucius sighed and thanked the healer for coming.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
A few hours later, Hermione started to stir. She sat up quickly, looking like a dear in headlights, completely confused of where she was. She scooted from the bed and stood, taking another look around.
Lucius watched her from the corner and decided to make his presence know, "Ms. Granger." he said quietly. Hermione whipped around but instantly relaxed when her eyes fixed on Lucius.
"Do you remember anything?" he asked cautiously
"Yes, well most of everything, but I seem to black out as we, uummmm, finished last night." She said with a blush.
"Yes, we both blacked out. It was apparently part of the binding. I actually called my healer for you as you appeared to be dead when I woke this morning." Lucius paused for a minute, "I should also tell you that now the bond is complete, you may leave the manor and go about your normal life."
"But I thought --"
"No, the information was wrong. You can leave but you will be able to feel when I need you as I will be able to feel when you need me. However, if you wish to stay here I will make it as comfortable for you as possible."
"Uh, no. I really think I should go back to my flat. My friends are probably wondering where I've been off too."
"Very well, you may leave as soon as your ready. I will be reworking the wards to allow you access whenever needed."
Hermione gave a nod, "I will be leaving shortly, I just need to dress."
"Very well, I bid you good day." Lucius said as he turned and left the room.
Hermione dressed as quick as she could. She couldn't explain why she wasn't upset with him or scared of him, the entire situation was just confusing, all she wanted was to get back to her flat, take a long hot bath and research on blood mates, hoping to make sense of the entire situation. She made one last check of her appearance before leaving the manor with a pop.
When she arrived back at her flat, Harry was waiting inside, worried sick.
"Where the hell have you been?" he shouted as soon as she walked in the door.
"I cant tell you Harry, but believe me when I say I'm fine."
"CAN'T TELL ME, I've been waiting here for almost two days worried sick!"
"Harry, please, Just calm down. You know I would tell you if I could and I possibly will once I figure it out myself. I have a lot to research and a lot to figure out before I go around telling everyone."
"Hermione, It's just --"
"Please Harry, You will be the first to know when I figure everything out... But you have to promise not to tell Ron anything, I highly doubt he will take it well."
"Hermione, you're scaring me. What the hell happened, Just tell me so I can help."
"Harry.."
Harry cut her off, "I will not leave until you tell me whats going on, at least tell me what you know."
Hermione sighed and slumped down on the couch next to Harry, "If I tell you, you have to promise me not to got insane and you have to promise to let me work this out... and you cant tell anyone."
"I promise, now spill."
Hermione cleared her throat and crossed her legs so she could face Harry, " Have you ever heard of a blood mate?"
"No, never heard of it." he answered
"Well... I am Lucius Malfoy's blood mate. He is a vampire and I am his blood supplier for life so to speak."
"YOUR WHAT!"
"I'm Lucius Malfoy's blood mate Harry, nothing can change that."
"I am going to get a drink, when I come back, I want to know how and why this happened." Harry stated angrily, hoping to get his blood pressure back under control before he returned.
"Alright Harry" she stated glumly.
Harry walked into the kitchen and punched the wall with every bit of force he had, cursing Lucius Malfoy within an inch of his life.
"Blood mate, what the hell? Is she a vampire now too?" he mumbled under his breath as he made himself a glass of muggle rum and coke. He walked back into the living room, slightly calmer then he was before.
"Alright, I'm better now." he stated as he looked over to her.
Hermione nodded, "first, I am not a vampire. I am simply a clean source of blood for Lucius. Second, He has not hurt me. The only thing he did was kidnap me for a few days to do the bonding, but even then he explained everything to me the best he could and didn't hurt me."
"We need to see someone, Malfoy kidnapped you and the bastard needs to pay." Harry seethed.
"No Harry, It's too late to do anything" she paused for a minute, "Listen Harry, Lucius was bitten as well, he didn't ask for it either and the truth of the matter is it's not as bad as I originally thought. You know me well enough to know that if he had asked I probably would have helped him anyway, Malfoy or not."
"He's ruined your life and you sit and talk like you've have tea or something."
"My life isn't ruined Harry, I can come and go at will, but I want to find out as much as I can so I know what to expect."
"Hermione" Harry sighed, "Go take a bath and get some clean, comfortable clothes on. I want to take you to the Black library, I'm sure there are things in there that will help us figure this out."
"Thanks Harry, I know I can always count on you." she said with a relieved smile as she stood from the couch and made her way to the bathroom.
