Bonded Souls: Year of the Snake
C9: Invasion Force
Standard Disclaimer: I don't own any of the recognizable characters
Their days from then on took on a wary character, always planning and hoping this would not be the day Tom invaded.
It was late November when they were relaxing in their room and there was a frantic knock on the door.
With Tom's invasion so close, Fabian took his wand before he opened the door, making sure his shield was up as well.
He opened it to a crack and saw Angelina on the other side, a wild look in her eyes. He let her in and checked the Hall for anyone else that might have followed her.
"Are you okay Angie?" He asked softly.
"No Fabe I'm not, it's time, Tom has invaded the school already. McGonagall got away safely, but there is no telling on what he will do to the school now. I managed to get out, but I fear I won't be safe anymore, can I please stay here until it is safe again.
He smiled at her. "Of course Angie, but we have to know. Is Daphne's cover intact?" He asked softly.
She nodded at that, hugging him tightly. "Yes it is, she knows I am here though. I couldn't leave her there without saying anything."
"It's okay Angie, anyone of us would have done the same. If you are up to it, I would like to know everything about him and the patrols. What have you heard?" He asked kindly.
She smiled at that and took a seat once she calmed down a bit. "He intends to let his Death Eaters patrol the grounds day and night, and they will be free to torture anyone at will. They are under orders not to kill anyone just yet, at least not until they found Harry, Draco and your Coven. Word is that he is afraid, but that he will send Nagini to find you. he's apparently sure that his snake will win him the day." She said softly.
"It will win us the day, and we will do so without anyone dying, at least on our side. We will make sure to spring a few traps on the day of the battle, make sure his reinforcements will not bother us, but all of this can only happen once that snake is dead." Fabian said with a soft smile.
Angelina smiled at that. "I hope you guys will bring it to him, but I think it will be fine. You guys have been screwed over almost more than Harry has been over the past few years."
They all nodded at that. "True, but we want to end this quickly for a whole other reason. It's true that he screwed over our lives more times than we care to count, but we just want to live our lives the way we want, and at point Tom is the biggest factor in us not living our lives, so we want to get rid of that to create a better world for our children to grow up in." Bellatrix said as she looked towards her husband lovingly.
Fabian smiled and nodded. "And besides that, we want to make an example of him. After the battle is over we will make sure that anyone who will think he can be like Tom, will meet us first and know what we can do."
Angelina smiled at that "I'm sure after this no one will be so stupid to ever be like Tom again, but I can understand where you are coming from, but if you would excuse me, I think I'm going to hit the hay for tonight." She said with a slight yawn.
"If you want, we can conjure up an extra bed in our room." Hermione said with a smile.
She smiled and shook her head. "As tempting as that sounds, I'll take the couch. I wouldn't want to impose more than I already do. Besides, I don't think I would get much sleep, knowing what you guys do almost every night. I think that would leave me beyond frustrated." She said softly.
"We understand Angie, we do that an awful lot these days, we suspect it is something because of our Bond and it wanting to survive." Fabian said with a smile.
She nodded and smiled while Bella conjured up a bed for her in the corner of the living room. "You won't have to sleep on the couch, not when I can easily conjure you up a comfortable bed." She said softly.
Angelina smiled and hugged her. "Thanks Bella, that means a lot to me." She said in a similar tone.
"Don't mention it Angelina, we're glad to help, and since we know what it's like to be separated from someone you love, we want to make it as easy as possible for you." Hermione said as she hugged her as well.
She just smiled at them and gave everyone a big hug. "Thanks for everything. I promise I won't forget this." She said softly before going to bed.
The smiled and made their way to their own room, except for Hermione, who went to inform Harry and Draco that there would be one extra person in the room.
…
As they entered their room, the girls wasted little time in getting their husband undressed to his boxers, after which they undressed themselves as well. "It's been a long wait love, but the time has finally come to finish him." Gabrielle said as she kissed him.
He smiled and pulled her close to him, since it was her night tonight. "It has been a long wait love, but we will have to wait a few weeks to take him out. Right now his force is still too big for us to confront. We'll have to pick him off a few at a time."
Gabrielle smiled and kissed him softly. "I know love, but I'm just scared of what will happen in the coming weeks. What if we can't finish this how we want to despite our elaborate planning?"
"It won't come to that baby, that I promise. Our plan may not survive Tom, but we will do anything in our power to make sure if everything goes to shit, we will improvise. That is one of the things we are good at after all." He said with a wink.
She blushed a little and kissed him again, needing to feel close to her husband again. "Hold me baby, I need to be close to you again." She said as she clung to him.
He smiled and picked her up bridal style. "Come love, let's take a nice relaxing bath together, I can see you need it."
She nodded and relaxed against him, giving her sister a wink over his shoulder. She had talked a lot with Fleur over the past days and expressed her worry about her own Veela side showing its head someday. Fleur had told her that she should express those worries to Fabian, since he was an expert in making unwanted presences go away, and that the best time to do that was when she would be in ecstasy, since that was the things what would bring out the Veela.
Gabrielle was a bit nervous, but hoped that her darling brother and husband would quiet that voice inside of her head. The one she had called Veronique and that told her he was hers and hers alone, that not even her sister could lay claim on him. She had fought against it for so long, ever since they had aged so much, and each time she made love to him it was getting more difficult to ignore her heritage.
"Fabian love, I just want you to know that whatever happens, I love you more than anything and that I never want to hurt you." She said softly.
He smiled and kissed her. "Is this about your heritage my love?" He asked softly.
She blushed and nodded. "It is, it's getting harder to ignore her. So I was hoping you would help me get rid of her permanently."
"Of course baby, you know I want you to be as happy as you can be, and since you are a lot more like your sister than you want to admit, I suspected this would come up at some point. I know you are afraid of hurting me, but somehow even a Veela is tame in my hands." He said with a soft smile.
That made her blush darken a bit and she shivered slightly from anticipation when he lowered her into the warm, soothing waters of the tub, placing himself behind her so he could hold her close to his body.
As she relaxed against him, she felt how his arm came to rest low around her waist, caressing her stomach slightly.
She smiled and rested her head against his chest, hearing the rhythmic beating of his heart, soothing her like nothing else in the world did.
"Baby, could you explain something to me?" She asked softly.
"Of course love, what is it you want to know?" He murmured contently.
"I just wanted to know what your fascination is with us growing a bit of pubic hair? It's not like I mind, but I can't imagine it adds to our looks." She said with a soft smile.
He smiled at that, figuring someone would ask that at some point. "I can't really explain it, I just think you girls look beautiful with that little bit of hair down there, it's just one of my quirks I guess." He said with a smile.
She smiled at that. "Well it's not like any of us mind and not have some quirks for ourselves, I was just wondering is all." She said softly.
He just smiled and kissed her, letting one of his hand glide down her body and the other one towards her breasts.
"I think someone is ready to have some fun with their little sister, or am I mistaken love?" She asked huskily.
"I will always be ready to have some dirty fun with my little sister, as dirty as that might sound." He said as she turned around and kissed him deeply.
He groaned a little into her mouth as she let her own hand glide down his body to start stroking his dick.
"I still can't believe how lucky I am to have you as my mate baby." He said softly as his hand that was caressing her breasts glided down to her pert butt.
Gabrielle moaned and smiled at him. "And I can't believe that such a loving stud is my husband and mate. I've always dreamed of being with you, and I am so happy that at least one of them has come true."
He smiled at that. "Both of our dreams have come true my love, and we will continue to let them come true for a very long time." He said softly.
She smiled at that. "Baby, I need you to fuck me right now. I'm desperate to feel you inside of me once again." She said huskily.
"Whatever my sister desires." He said softly before lifting her on his dick, making her moan loudly.
Gabrielle could feel how her Veela tried to take over, and instead of fighting it like she usually did, she let the change happen.
Fabian saw how her features changed and the familiar amber eyes of a Veela replaced his sister's baby blue eyes. Her usual soft and still a bit childlike features made way for a steely gaze and defined cheekbones. "It's about time that little girl let us have some time together." She said in a completely different voice than the usual dulcet tones that he was used to.
"I can see why, all you Veela ever seem to do is how to degrade the ones whose bodies you occupy. I already made Josette disappear from Fleur's mind and I see no qualms in doing the same to you. Gabrielle is not a little girl anymore and she has found her forever, you are no longer needed to pollute her brain with lies and jealousy." He said with a smirk.
She frowned a little at that. "How could a man like you ever make Josette go away, I always wondered what it was they all see in you."
"I love them, unconditionally, now and forever, sometimes even beyond reason. You however, only care about being complete as a Veela. Let me tell you that both Gabrielle and Fleur are more complete now than they are when you or Josette were there. It is time to let go Veronique." He said softly.
The Veela smiled at that. "In all my years I never thought of it like that. Thank you, and please tell her that I am sorry, it's just a part of Veela nature that compelled me to act like that." She said before Gabrielle's eyes returned to normal and her features softened.
"Welcome back my love, how are you feeling?" He asked softly.
She smiled and kissed him deeply before answering. "I feel amazing. I can't feel her in my head anymore, thank you baby." She said softly.
"It was no trouble at all my love. You know all I want for any of you is to make you happy, in whatever way, shape or form that is." He said with a smile.
Gabrielle blushed and kissed him again. "But still I think you deserve a reward for what you did, so I am now offering myself to you baby, use me in whatever way you like." She said softly.
He smiled at that. "What you are doing right now is good enough baby, it feels divine inside of you." He said as he started thrusting upwards.
She moaned and wrapped her arms around his neck, by now high enough that her breasts were at his eyelevel. "You said I looked more like Fleur than I thought, and you're right, one thing I probably like even more than her is when you play with my tits, so please baby, tease my nipples and squeeze my boobs." She said in a husky tone.
He just smiled and did as she asked, loving the soft moans and mewls that came out of her as he did. "I love the sounds you make when you're in ecstasy my love, I can't get enough of it." He said softly.
She smiled and kissed him, taking her time to explore his mouth once again, wanting to get to know every single nook of his mouth again. "Fabian baby, I want you to fuck me in the ass again. I need to feel it again." She said softly.
"If that is what you want my dear sister, than this is what I shall give you my love, but we should get out of the tub first." He said with a smile.
Gabrielle nodded and smiled as she stood up and put her hands up against the wall, inviting her brother with a coy smile and smoldering eyes, which she knew would drive him wild.
She was proven right once again when he kissed the back of her neck and slowly penetrated her asshole, both of them moaning loudly.
Gabrielle was in heaven, she didn't want to admit it, but she was almost just as addicted to this as Hermione was, but she at least had the modesty to not crave it as much as Hermione did.
She knew she wouldn't last long, and she could feel Fabian was close too. "You know what the best part is of you fucking my ass Baby?" She asked softly.
He smiled at her and kissed her neck. "That I can fill you up without you getting pregnant?" He whispered huskily.
She nodded and moaned as he thrusted forward a final time and filled up her insides with his spunk, while he also squeezed her breasts, which in turn made her come as well, screaming out his name as she shuddered into him.
Fabian made sure she would stay on her feet, pulling her into his arms after pulling his dick out, sliding them both back into the tub, which was still magically warm, soothing both of their muscles into jelly.
They relaxed in the tub for a little while longer before they switched to the shower to clean up a bit, both of them holding each other tightly as they washed each other.
…
The following morning the girls woke up to one of the cutest sights they had ever seen. Gabrielle had curled herself into Fabian and he in turn was holding her close to his body, and it almost seemed like she was purring while she slept in his arms, although only a little bit of her head was visible from under the covers.
"They look so cute like that. Shall we let them sleep for a bit, or shall we give them a sensual wake-up call?" Nym asked softly.
"Since they were in bed before us, I think they were sensual enough last night." Bella said in a teasing tone.
The girls nodded and smiled as Fleur and Luna pulled back the covers and Hermione and Yvette positioned themselves behind the two. Bella and Nym took a seat at their head and feet and after smiling at each other they softly started caressing their lover's arms, legs and backs, getting soft mewls from Gabrielle and a content groan from Fabian.
"Good morning lovers, how did you sleep?" Hermione asked softly.
Gabrielle stretched herself and nuzzled her head in his chest while Fabian gave the others a good-morning kiss. "We slept okay, although I have to say the way we were woken up was pretty good as well."
"We figured you would like that, given everything that happened with you two yesterday. Are you okay Gabby?" Fleur asked softly.
She smiled and nodded. "I am Fleur, Fabian helped me get rid of her. My head is clear once again." She said softly.
Fleur smiled and pulled her sister up for a hug and a kiss, which again quickly escalated into the two of them touching each other in more intimate places.
"Usually I say this of Fabian and Fleur but I think we lost the siblings to each other, but I'll be damned if it isn't hot to look at, kind of makes me horny as well." Yvette said as she shuffled around a bit.
Fabian smiled and crawled up to her, capturing the redhead's lips with his own, making her moan loudly.
Luna was already engaged in a passionate kiss with Bella, and Nym was kissing her way down Hermione's body.
Since they were all pretty hungry it didn't escalate as much as usual, and after the girls reluctantly got dressed, they made their way into the living room, smiling as they saw Pansy and Parvati cooking them all some nice breakfast, while Angelina was talking to Harry and Draco.
"Good morning everyone, how are you today?" Fabian asked with a smile.
They smiled at that. "We're doing okay for the most part, I just don't know if the food my fiancé is preparing will be edible." Draco said teasingly.
"Keep that up Black, and I'll make sure yours won't be. I happen to be a very good cook. My mother made sure I was." Pansy said in a similar tone.
"I have to say little brother, you certainly have yourself a keeper in Pansy, she'll be a good addition to our quirky family." Fleur said with a wink.
Draco chuckled a little at that. "That's true, that's also part of the reason I have always loved her, and why I will continue to love her for as long as she will have me." He said with a dreamy smile.
"And you know I will hold you to that love. Now eat up and tell me what you think." Pansy said as she kissed his cheek and handed him a plate, while Parvati did the same for Harry and Angelina.
"Well I suppose we shall fix our own breakfast then." Hermione said with a smile.
Parvati and Pansy smiled at that. "There's plenty left for you guys. I just hope you like a lavish breakfast." Pansy said with a smile.
They all laughed at that. "Pansy, you should know by now that we like everything a bit lavish, that of course includes food." Fleur said with a smile.
"Well that's true, only you guys would get married twice before you are even out of school." Pansy said with a smile.
They smiled and nodded. "True, but the second time we got married we technically were out of school already, but the first time we got married we were still in school, so I'll give you that. But I promise the next ones who will be married are you two." Nym said with a smile.
"I don't know about that Dora, all that talk Harry and Vati are doing over the last few days makes me doubt that." Draco said with a smile to their raven haired friend.
Both Harry and Parvati blushed at that. "You heard that? I figured the sections of the room were silenced enough, but I guess it's fine that you guys heard. We heard some interesting things about you too." Parvati said with a wink.
Now it was Draco and Pansy's turn to blush, but before they could say anything, there was a commotion outside their door.
"Oh you've got to fucking kidding me. I figured it would be at least a few weeks before they found us. Harry, Draco and Angie, please go and hide. Girls, battle formations. It could be anything outside." He said softly.
The girls nodded and the others quickly made their way into the room. "Before we go out there, I might have an idea to see what's on the other side." Bella said softly.
"Then by all means my love, show us what you have in mind." Hermione said softly.
Bella smiled and cast a spell on the door, turning it transparent so they could see what was happening on the other side.
They saw how a couple of Death Eaters were shouting through the Halls, destroying random things in the Hall.
"Those rat bastards, we'll show them not to fuck with our school. Let's send them back as a message." Fabian said with a smirk.
The girls smiled at that. "Let's baby, but we can't hurt them too bad, otherwise we'll be just as bad as Tom. Maybe we won't even have to touch them, now that we can see them, I can send them away in agonizing pain." Hermione said with a wink.
He smiled at that. "Then by all means my love, hurt them as much as you want. they've chosen their sides, so we should not hold back, because they won't hold back either." He said softly.
"I know, but just know that it will never be easy to hurt someone like that." She said almost guilty.
"And that is the way it should be love, but I promise after this is over, we shall never have to use our power like this ever again, except for times our family is in danger." He said softly.
Hermione smiled and nodded before focusing on the three Death Eaters on the other side of their door. All of them smiling as the three clutched their heads and ran away.
Fabian smiled and kissed Hermione's cheek. "Nicely done my love, I suspect they'll run to their master and tell them how they were beaten by an unseen force, and if my hunches are correct, they'll start to fear us even more than they already do, and eventually they'll refuse to patrol at least this part of the school, which in turn will make sure he will send others, to whom we will do the same, and within weeks we will have this part of the school under control, from where we can plan our assault on his forces."
"How I love the way your mind works love." Nym said with a purr.
He smiled and kissed her. "That is something I can't help love, I can't help but plan every little detail of a plan." He said softly.
Nym smiled at that, knowing exactly where he got that from. "Why am I not surprised my love, you are more like your mother than you think." She said softly.
"And sometimes you look like my Mom as well baby." He said with a wink.
Nym blushed and sat herself in his lap, while Hermione and Fleur went to get the others from their room.
"I take it you two want some privacy?" Bella asked with a knowing smile.
Fabian and Nym shared a look and nodded, which got a smile from the others. "Then go have fun with each other, we'll let you know when dinner is ready." Luna said softly.
The two lovers nodded and gave their mates a kiss before they walked to the bedroom hand in hand.
…
As soon as they landed on the bed, Nym straddled her husband, kissing him deeply. "It feels like it's been ages since we shared a bed alone, it kind of makes me want to fuck you senseless." She said huskily.
He smiled and pulled her close. "So funny, I kind of wanted to do the same to you, or did you have something more… adventurous in mind?" He asked softly.
"That's entirely up to who you want me to be my love. Although I would love to fuck you as myself again. it's been too long." She said with a smile.
"Then we will make love like we did the first time we did it a few years ago. I feel like we both need that today." He said softly.
She smiled and kissed him. "Or we could cuddle and talk for a bit, I just want to be close to you for a while." She said as she got off him and settled into his side, slinging one leg over both of his as she rested her head on his chest. "Fabe, can you explain something to me?" She asked softly.
"Of course love, what's wrong?" He asked in a similar tone.
"I'm just a bit curious why we found out we were mates so late in our lives. I mean, I held you when you were born, shouldn't we have known something was up over at least the last few years?"
He smiled at that, pulling her closer to his body. "If we look back on everything and how we felt with that, I'm sure we would have felt something that could have given us an inkling of our Bond, but I think it was our conscience that held us back. We are still family at the end of the day and while it is nothing new in our community or family, we are just different. I still believe that everything that happened with our Coven happened for a reason and everyone came to us in the order it was supposed to, even if we don't see it like that. If we truly went in the order we met, it would be Bella first, then you, Fleur and Gabby and after that Luna and Hermione, and we would never have met Yvette and thus would never be as complete as we are now. Sometimes I wish it was different and we had fallen in love in that order, but then I see how happy we are together, and I'm glad everything went the way it did, even the less pleasant things." He said softly.
She smiled at that. "I guess you're right baby, I was just wondering about everything, but I can see where that comes from. We have always had a special bond, even when you were little you would draw to either me or Bella, although that lessened when you met Luna."
"I still wonder what it is between Luna and me that makes us so special. I love you all equally, but somehow with Luna all reason goes out of the window. I know Morgana said that Luna and I share a bond within our Bond, but I still don't know what it means." He said with a dreamy smile.
Nym smiled and kissed him softly. "I think I know my love. You and Luna have led quite similar lives, and for a long time you two were the only ones you could trust and talk to. You fell in love with her before you knew what love was and you know it was the same for her. You will always put her above everyone, and will always love her just that little bit more than you love us, we know this and we are okay with it. We see you and Luna as the Alpha's of our coven, and we are fine in following you two in this. We also know you don't see it like that and that you love us all equal, but if you look inside your heart, you know I speak the truth, and I must ask you to not beat yourself up over the fact you love Luna a bit more than us. Just know that you will always love you, no matter what." She said with a soft smile.
Fabian smiled at that. "I know you're right love, but I can't bring myself to accept the fact, because I feel I'm letting you down by not loving you enough. You girls deserve to be loved in every way possible." He said softly.
She smiled at that. "And you show us how much you love us each and every single day, my love. Nothing you will ever do will make us feel not loved." She said softly.
"Thank you baby, that means a lot to me, but I can't promise that I won't feel guilty when I spend a bit more time with Luna than with the rest of you girls." He said with a soft smile.
"And I am here to tell you that you won't have to feel guilty for that. We just want you to explore your true relationship with Luna, whatever that may mean. Because we all know it can never endanger our Bond as a whole. Maybe you two should go and talk to Morgana once everything is over, she is bound to be able to shed some light on it, and if that fails you can always ask your mothers, they can see the true Bonds between people if I'm not mistaken." Nym said with a soft smile.
He nodded and kissed her. "That's true, but it is something that can wait until everything is over. For now all I need you right next to me while we take a nap. We could both use one at this point."
She smiled and nodded, both of them quickly falling asleep as they were wrapped around each other.
