Chapter Nine

Slightly drunk Harry stumbled up the stairs, Ginny's hand in his own as she lead him upstairs. Reaching the boy's dormitory she pushed him down on to his bed. With the party in full swing downstairs the dormitory was empty. Harry's head was spinning and even with his glasses on he couldn't seem to focus his eye sight.

He felt his trousers and underwear tug down to his knees and he thought of Draco, the effects of the potion starting to wear off as he sleepily muttered his name. Ginny knew she had to work quickly. They would have plenty of time for romance later, now they just had to do it as fast as possible.

The red headed girl removed her underwear from beneath her skirt and straddled the man she loved, positioning herself on top of him and began to fuck him, enjoying the sensation of feeling Harry inside of her. Harry had only just reached his climax, calling out Draco's name when they entered. Ginny was smiling triumphantly as Draco threw a curse at her enraged. She was thrown off from Harry as the curse hit her and she rolled off the bed and on to the floor.

"Stop it Draco, you'll be expelled!" Hermione said tugging his arm down.

"Why?" Draco screamed at her, tears streaming down his cheeks at the hurt that was pulsing through his chest with every beat of his heart. The sight of Harry's unconscious form made him want to kill her and he thought that he would be justified in doing so after what he had seen. No Wizengamot would convict a Veela protecting his mate. However this wasn't protection, this was avenging and on that he wasn't so sure.

"Because Harry and I are meant to be together, I told you on his birthday that he would be mine. He'll never come back to you now, not now I'm giving him something you never could."

"You didn't…" Hermione said dumbfounded at the girl's stupidity.

"A family," Draco said quietly, he and Harry had never discussed it, he had never known if it was important to him or not. Ginny had apparently known something about him that he had no clue about. "I'm taking him to the hospital wing, he needs to be checked over. If you dare follow us I don't care what happens to me I will kill you." Draco threatened as he went to the unconcious Harry, scooping him up in his arms and heading for the exit.

Hermione and Ginny both let them go, the younger of the two grinning happily that she had achieved her goal. Draco wasn't gone but that was a minor footnote. As soon as she could confirm her pregnancy Harry would come running to her and they could be happy, they could even be married by the end of the year.

"How stupid do you have to be to do something like this Ginny?" Hermione asked rounding on her. "Harry won't be with you, baby or not!"

"Yes he will, he'd never abandon his child!"

"Draco's a Veela, Harry's his mate, they're bonded already, you're a pure-blooded witch, you know what that means. What you've just done is illegal Ginny and there's something else you need to know as well." Ginny stood before the intelligent witch, her arms folded across her chest and looking impatiently at her. "Voldemort was conceived under the influence of a love potion. That's why he could never feel love, not even for his parents. Whatever you've just created without Harry's consent is a monster just like Voldemort was. You had better hope that whatever fertility potion you used didn't work."

Ginny looked at her in shock, she knew what it meant to be the mate of a Veela for her brother Bill was the mate of Fleur Delacour. She had seen how intensely and passionately they had loved, knew how unbreakable that was. The news about Voldemort being conceived under a love potion came as a shock to her as well, she had had no idea.

Poppy wasn't in the best of moods when Draco reached the hospital wing carrying Harry in his arms. She had two students, one under the influence of a full body locking curse and the other magically bound lying on the floor in a room that had been ripped to pieces from the duelling that had gone on in there. She had been about to verbally attack Draco, demanding to know what had happened when she saw Harry in his arms.

"What has happened to him now?" She asked with a weary sigh, "I suppose it has something to do with the mess in your bedroom?"

"Yes, it's a long story and I'll explain everything once Professor McGonagall is here, right now can you please look Harry over, he was drugged with a love potion and raped by a female student. He's unconscious at the moment."

Poppy sighed and nodded, "Poor child, he never seems to have an easy time of it." She said as she began to wave her wand to diagnose what could be wrong with him. "I doubt he'll remember the attack on him, just like the last time, he's got so much alcohol in his system. That is why he's unconscious and there are only trace amounts of the love potion left. He'll be fine."

"Excuse me Madame Pomfrey but you said, like the last time, has this happened before?" Draco asked feeling horrified.

"Once, when he was fourteen. The headmaster sat down to talk to him about it but he didn't want to know, I suppose he blocked it out after that. I realise that this is quite a lot of information Mr Malfoy but I'm telling you this so that you can help him. Quite clearly he was not in his right mind when this happened to him, he shouldn't be blamed."

"I don't blame him," Draco said, staring down at his mate with tears in his eyes and sorrow in his heart. "I just wish that … I don't know…that he'd just stay out of trouble I suppose. Everything was going really well between us."

"You stay with him, I'll summon the headmistress."

When Minerva arrived she took in the sight of Harry unconscious in the hospital bed and Draco watching over him and sighed. "I knew the two of you would be trouble this year," She said with disapproval, "What happened this time?"

"I suppose I had better start from the beginning," Draco said, rubbing his forehead rather violently as he tried to figure out how to begin. "Harry and I went our separate ways just after seven, I came here to read, he went to do his homework, we were both tired, it had been a long day. The next thing I knew Pansy Parkinson and Blaise Zabini came into my room and attacked me. I fended them off just in time to see Hermione Granger come in, apparently to warn me. She told me that Ginny Weasley had given Harry a love potion so we went up to Gryffindor common room and that's when I found harry unconscious and she was raping him."

"Why would she be doing that?" McGonagall asked in shock at what she had just been told.

"She was trying to conceive his child so that Harry would be with her rather than me." Draco explained and the headmistress nodded.

"You had better come with me while we look for Miss Weasley, I can already see that Parkinson and Zabini are well detained."

"I'm not going anywhere Professor, I'm not leaving Harry's side again," Draco said adamantly only to receive a very stern look from the headmistress. He didn't care what she said however he wouldn't be leaving his mate again, not for any reason.

Harry awoke in the early hours of the morning still feeling a little woozy and finding that his memories were in a blur. He could see Draco slumbering in an armchair beside him, book open on his lap. He smiled at his boyfriend, not understanding where he was or why he was here but happy to be so close to the love of his life.

As Harry shifted so that he could lie on his side and stare at the blonde, Draco roused from sleep also, their eyes meeting even in the darkness of the room. "Lie with me," Harry whispered sleepily, holding his hand out to the Veela.

"No love, you need to rest," Draco returned, his voice quiet. It hurt him to deny his mate but he couldn't do it, he still hadn't come to terms with what had happened and even though he knew that what had happened wasn't Harry's fault he still needed time to process everything.

"I need you," Harry pleaded and Draco let out a sigh, the hurt in his mates voice leaked through. Draco cursed himself for putting himself and his feelings before that of his mate, he shouldn't have been so selfish. He could see clearly how much Harry needed him. "Are you angry at me?" Harry asked, tears welling up in his eyes, "For drinking again?"

"No love," Draco said wiping the tears away, "I'm not angry at you at all." Harry shuffled across the bed, allowing the blonde room to join him, still fully clothed he did so, encircling his arms around his mate protectively.

"Love you Dray," Harry said as he smuggled into his boyfriends warm embrace, feeling content and loved. Draco didn't say a word as his Gryffindor fell back to sleep, he however didn't sleep again for the rest of the night.

Both Harry and Draco were excused from their Friday classes but only because Harry still needed time to rest from his ordeal and Draco wouldn't leave him. Minerva came to see them both after breakfast that morning to tell Draco about the action that was being taken. She hadn't wanted to overwhelm Harry and Draco had requested that he be the one to talk to Harry and explain everything that had happened. Seeing as it was a delicate matter the professors concerned had agreed that would be for the best.

Draco asked Poppy to give the headmistress a detailed report of her findings so to strengthen the case against Ginny, who had been detained by the Ministry of Magic for her actions after she had been expelled from the school of course. Blaise and Pansy had also been expelled, their wands snapped in half after it had been determined that they had intended to kill Draco that evening. The Ministry couldn't commit anyone to Azkaban on just intent so they were free to go but were not allowed to use magic again. The two of them would have the trace put on them until they could prove that they were no longer a danger.

Harry had lay in his bed, half asleep and not really taking much in. He had no memory of what had happened the night before. His last coherent memory had been coming back to Gryffindor tower to a party and Ginny handing him a drink.

"The drink she gave you was laced with a love potion," Draco said to him quietly once they were alone together. They needed privacy for this conversation as it wasn't going to be an easy one.

"Why would Ginny do that, she knows that I'm with you."

"She knew and she didn't care love, she was in love with you."

"Why would she be in love with me? I don't understand how or why she'd feel that way."

"Oh Harry, you have no idea and I love you so much for that, I really do."

"You have to love me Dray, you're a Veela and I'm your mate. If it wasn't for you-"

Draco cut him off with a kiss and when he withdrew he was shaking his head. "I don't love you because I have to. When I found out you were my destined mate I could have walked away and lived. You needed not ever know about me, granted I could never have loved anyone else but the fact is I didn't have to pursue you. I chose to court you love, I chose to follow you into muggle London where you were trying to drink yourself into oblivion just so I could win you back. I didn't have to do any of that, I could have let you go but I didn't because I wanted to be with you, because I love you." Harry nodded his understanding, almost in tears at what Draco had said.

"I just don't understand how anyone could love me," Harry said sadly.

"I know you don't love, but Ginny did no matter what you think. She wanted you so much that she gave you a love potion and forced you to have sex with her." As Draco said this he watched as his mate turned a little green. "I'm afraid it gets worse," He warned, indicating that he wasn't quite finished.

"How can it possibly get worse?" Harry asked, horrified and feeling sick to his stomach already he wasn't sure that he would be able to take anymore.

"She took a fertility potion, she was trying to get pregnant." At this bit of information Harry really did vomit. Draco stood back and let it happen, allowing him to process while rubbing soothing circles on his back.

"Is she?" Harry asked once his stomach was empty and the news had sunk in.

"We don't know, it's too early to tell, but I should tell you that if she is it isn't going to be good news."

"Why, what's wrong?" Harry asked, feeling the worry radiating from his boyfriend.

"Hermione came in when you were asleep, she told me that the reason Voldemort could never feel love was because he was conceived under the influence of a love potion. She needed me to tell you this because you need to understand that if Ginny is pregnant with your baby then the Ministry won't let her keep it. They already have her under arrest for what she did to you and she's been expelled from Hogwarts. The Ministry are fearful that a combination of being unable to feel love and your power then she could have created a wizard more powerful and more dangerous than Voldemort, though it is clear that that wasn't her intention."

"Oh," Harry said in shock, still processing everything that he was being told. "I don't remember anything from last night at all, nothing that Ginny did or anything that you tell me happened. I can't believe that she actually did all of this, I've known her my whole life. Is that why you're pulling away from me, because of her and what she did to me?"

"I'm not pulling away from you love, I'm still here, I always will be."

"But I can feel that you are," Harry stated sadly, feeling beyond hurt at the thought that he might be losing Draco over what had happened and he couldn't even remember it clearly.

"I don't mean to. I hate her for touching you. I'm jealous that she's felt you inside of her when I never have, I hate her for making me feel as if I'm not good enough for you," Draco said being as honest as he could. He couldn't bare to see his mate hurting.

"Why would you say that you're not good enough for me?"

"Because I can't give you a family Harry, all I can do is love you."

"Then love me," Harry said desperately, fearful of losing the one person he believed really could love him for who he was and not for being the boy-who-lived.

"I want to do more than that Harry, I want to marry you!"

Harry stared at Draco in shock, trying to process if he had really asked that particular question or if he had imagined it.
