Author Notes: Alright Everybody. I am very very ashamed of myself for my lack of updating. Time has just flown by for me, and in just a few days I'm jetting off to Portugal for six months. I will try to update a few times while I'm overseas.
I would also like to say that if you have been waiting for an update then, you should re-read the previous chapter before you read this one, as I decided to change a few things.
And now for some Review responses:
athena iris: I have to agree that creature stories are hard to find.
Dangelic Fantasy: About the blood thing, well I did kind of explain, that the Lana needs the blood because it's high in magic. And at the same time as a human child the begin to eat solids. They just need the magic to grow properly.
Shen-Star: Told You I would update.

Harry awoke to heat, warmth, too hot. He was too warm; next to him he could feel something cool, he threw off the blankets and snuggled close to the cool body beside him. Harry threw both an arm and a leg over the cool body of his mate.
Draco felt a very warm body half lying on to of him as he drifted awake, he opened his eyes and saw an untidy mop of hair on his chest. It took his mate moaning and moving to totally cover him for Draco to become fully aware of what was happening. Harry was coming into his first heat.
Harry looked down into Draco's eyes and said "'S hot 'co"
Draco wrapped his arms around his limp mate and kissed his ear, then trailed his tongue down Harry's neck, "It's okay, I've got you, we'll talk to the full bloods today"
"Don't wanna see the full bloods, wanna stay with you." Harry said pouting.
"I'll be with you the whole time-" Draco began
"But, it's so hot, just wanna be with you, need you to keep me cool."
Draco sighed, was it going to be like this every heat, or just the first. He would have to get the full bloods here; they were the only ones that would know how he could help his mate.
"What if we get them to come here?" Draco asked.
Harry buried his head in Draco's neck and mumbled, "'k, can I stay with you?"
Draco smiled, Harry was so dependent on him, if something happened to Draco while Harry was in Heat, then Harry would die, and that was a scary thought. Would Harry always be like this, so dependent and craving for touch?
It was at that moment that there was a knock on the door, Harry groaned and wrapped his arms around Draco hiding his face again.
"Who is it?" Draco asked
"It's us." Bornaut's voice called through the door.
"Don't want them in." Harry said
"We have to let them in love, they can help you. Do it, for me."
" 'k let them in." Harry said, a frown firmly on his face.
Draco waved his hand in the direction of the door and was surprised when it clicked open.
As soon as the five Lytare entered the room Harry began to feel even warmer, tears began to pool in his eyes and he clutched on even tighter to what seemed to be the only cool thing in the world. His mate.
------
As soon as Shanae entered the room she sensed that Harry was in heat, she waved her hand in a complicated motion, and as she started chanting Marese joined in. Soon a slight shimmer in the air was all that could be seen of the shield that had been erected around the couple on the bed, she saw Harry visibly loosen his grip on Draco.
"What was that?" Draco asked, preparing to fight the four Lytare's at the threshold to protect his mate.
"A complex magic, that once erected is easy to maintain, it is to protect a Vissim that is in heat, you mate has gone into heat earlier that we had expected, we will have to postpone our talk with both you and the headmaster until his heat is over. Also until his fertility period it over, as you will both crave the other for that time" Shanae said.
"How does that work?" asked Harry, turning his head so that his words weren't muffled, but keeping his cheek in contact with Draco.
"It is in your scent Harry, it is your scent that told Draco when you were ready to bond, and it is your scent now that is telling Draco that you need protection, and that in only a day or so, you will be out of you heat, and at this time, your Nanim may become desperate, because no matter if the potion is in use or not, you body will still send out the scent that will tell Draco that you are fertile." Marese said.
"But why does the heat have to be so hot?" Harry asked
Shanae smiled "It's your body preparing for pregnancy. The 'heat' in itself is a remnant of when our species lived in the mountains ,high on cliffs and in snowy caves. The heat is to keep the Vissims body warm during pregnancy, as it remains warmer that usual for the whole of the pregnancy. The heat is maintained by foods high in sugars, and the body also borrows energy from the Nanim. This is one of the reasons that the Vissim needs the Nanim so much, as skin to skin contact is what is needed for the transfer of energy."
------
Very early the next morning Draco woke to a warm, wet tongue licking a path up his neck and hand running through his hair. Hands that didn't seem overly hot. Harry's heat had ended while they slept. Harry was in the fertile period of his heat. Just at that moment an extremely alluring scent hit his nose. It smelled of all things sweet. Draco's last conscious thought was 'crap, he hasn't taken the potion.'
------
Ron and Hermione looked up as Harry and Draco entered the hall for the first time in more than a week. Both noticed that both Harry and Draco looked very satisfied, after a moment Hermione smiled with the realisation of what they had just been up to. Ron also noticed but his reaction was very different, he gagged for a minute and covered his eyes, whimpering 'oh my god, this is not happening, oh my god'
Hermione shook her head at Ron's behaviour, and dragged him over to the two still standing at the doors unsure of where to sit. Both Ron and Hermione hugged their best friend as they came up to him. A second later, they were thrown from him and landed with a thud on the floor, a menacing figure with midnight wings towered over them.
"Touch him again without my permission and I will do more than just throw you off him" Draco Malfoy, pissed off Nanim hissed at the duo lying on the floor.
A hand rested on Draco's forearm and Harry said "Clam Draco, they did not know. They are my friends they won't hurt me."
Draco closed his eyes and exhaled slowly, when he opened his eyes again they were calm. "Come" he mentioned to Harry. Leading him over to the Gryffindor table, where it was safe.
As soon as Draco went 'weird' all the students of the school looked towards the four at the door, and the whispering began immediately.
'Malfoy, shouldn't be loosing his temper in the great hall like that…" Came from the Slytherin table.
"Draco Malfoy must be one of those things that came to the school a few days ago, I wonder what they are?" from the Ravenclaw table
"Jeez, Malfoy really is Scary, but why is he defending Harry?" From the Hufflepuff's.
"What is Harry doing with that slimy Slytherin, he should come over here and sit with us." From the Gryffindor's.
------
Harry sat with Draco at the table, practically in his lap, with one of Draco's arms wrapped around him protectively. Harry immediately reached for the pile of pancakes, and placed one on his plate. He then proceeded to pour a mound of sugar on top, then a massive puddle of syrup. Harry then picked up a spoon and scooped a mouthful into his mouth, and smiled at draco, kissing him softly of the cheek, leaving behind a sticky mark.
Ron looked at Harry for a split second then said "You want a pancake with that syrup mate?"
Draco's head snapped up instantly and he growled out "Watch who you call mate here Weasley."
Ron held his hands in front of him as said "Whoa, Whoa, calm down. Didn't meand it like that."
Draco smirked and said "I know, I just wanted to scare the shit out of you."
------
Severus Snape looked between Harry and Marese and sighed, they were eating pretty much the same thing. Sugar. What a Vissim needed to maintain their pregnancy. Draco seemed to have noticed, as did Granger. Who was looking in the same places as him.

A/N: As I said I apologise for not updating for like five months. What can I say... Oops.
I have a challenge for you all. Who can guess how Harry got his Lytaren blood from his mothers side. (Oh and Shen you can't answer this as you know) Who will guess correctly...hmmmm
I promise that you will all have another chapter within a month. PROMISE. If I don't you all have permission to yell at me. ('Specially you Shen.)
