Chapter 10 Preparation for a journey
It was another hour before the new trio made it back to the room of requirement. It was almost noon. Bella and Hermione began finishing the two books that Merlin had told them to read first. It took them three hours to complete them and Harry tended to them with food and drinks as they needed while he read a third.
Hermione sat up and motioned for the two to come and sit with her. "It is now time to test my theory from this morning. Harry you didn't read either of the books that Bella and I did. I want you to focus on my mind while I think of the text I just read. Harry did so and within minutes the knowledge from the rituals that Hermione had read were fully in his mind as well.
Harry waved his hand and cast a small purple flame spell from Merlin's spell book. Hermione was clapping as she did the same. "It works, Bloody hell, it works."
Harry thought back to the duel "Bella, I think I must have tapped into some of your knowledge for dueling as I had a wealth of knowledge while I was up there. It is the only way I can explain it.
Hermione excited "Bella focus on my mind while I think of the text and then I will do the same for your text." They did so but when Hermione started receiving text from Bella, Harry was there too.
Bella put a smile on her face "That was amazing. Harry did you get all that."
Harry smiled and then cast a silvery shield from the text Bella had read. It was nearing six o'clock and they decide to have dinner in the great hall with the staff. All the teachers were talking animatedly about the duel from earlier. They greeted everyone cordially and sat down to eat.
During the course of desert Albus spoke to Harry. "Can I ask you a question about today?" Harry grinned at him before nodding his head. "What would you have done if I had said no?"
Harry looked at him and then sighed "Your plan was flawed because you did not control the trigger... I controlled it. If you failed to heed the warning I would have forced your hand by challenging you to a duel and then pulling the trigger myself. You must understand that your plan would not have worked because by the time I could get to Voldemort, through his lackey's my magical core would have been so depleted that I would not had enough magic to explode… only die."
Albus reply was "I had not thought of that… Oh dear indeed."
"Albus just remember nothing happens in a vacuüm and you cannot predict everyone's actions. Those that fully understand what is going on are in a better place to adapt when things go wonky and overcome any unforeseen events." Albus merely nodded his agreement.
They had been in the castle for more than two weeks and continued to study many of Merlin's tomes. Every morning they practiced dueling with Bella explaining some finer points they could work on. Fillius had come by to show him some of his insight as well.
In the afternoon they would study the tomes and then the evenings they would share each other's knowledge gained that way. It was on the 13th night of their research to find the way to rid Harry of the soul piece in his scar that Harry became frustrated. He slammed the current book he was reading and said with some excitement "We are never going to make it to our training. Tomorrow we take Hermione's parents to our Black home in the Bahamas and then everything is ready for our journey, everything but this damn piece of moldyshorts stuck in my head." Harry banged his head on the table.
Bella and Hermione looked at each other and winced as they heard him bang his head again. They both got up and drug him to the bathroom to let him relax and unwind. It was an hour later that Harry's brooding began to abate. Hermione was on one side and Bella was on the other relaxing in each other's embrace. Harry sighed "I am sorry I nearly had a meltdown."
Hermione began to laugh "Nearly had a meltdown? I think you melted all right. Has the bruising and swelling of your forehead gone down."
Bella looked at it and gave a slight first "No… no wait it has gone down, the rest of the swelling is normal for the male in his species." She giggled at him.
Harry just looked her "Ha, very funny." All of them started to laugh then.
It was a few minutes later that they settled down and Harry held both of them tight to him. "I really am sorry I just want to get on with this and be done with Voldemort so we can begin our lives together."
Hermione placed her hand on his chest "We understand and we feel the same." They finished a few minutes later.
The trio headed back to their room. Hermione and Harry were laughing as they were playfully groping and tickling each other. Bella watched them for a second as a smile came to her face. She thought to them. "Please come and sit with me for a moment I have need to talk with you."
"I have not been completely open with you because I had feared you would think badly of me. I had a lot of mental baggage when I came to you and both of you have given me your care, concern, protection and love." She thought.
Harry held up her hands "Bella I know there are parts you have hidden away from us. I sense more than anything that you feel ashamed about those events. I even let Hermione know and made sure her inquisitive mind did not cause you any pain." Bella then with tears in her eyes knelt before them and placed her head in their laps.
"Harry I know you did but it made me feel so guilty for holding back." Bella replied. "The trouble is that with each wonderful kindness you give to me it makes me much more afraid to tell you because I don't want to lose either of you. It is a sick vicious mind game and I blame it all on my tormentors."
Hermione rubbed her back and softly added "Bella I don't know what it is that you feel you can't tell us but I assure you that Harry and I will not abandon you because of it. My mother was right I do love you and the parts of you that you have shown us and your willingness to make us happy have only strengthened that."
Bella sniffled "The thing is I finally realized that by holding back and not telling you my tormentors have once again reached out to hurt me. The only way I can free myself is to let the two people I care about the most know everything about me." Bella cried as the tears rolled down her cheeks.
Harry and Hermione focused their minds on Bella as she open the door to the closed parts she had hidden. Thirty minutes later they all emerged from the memories she had. Harry had picked her up and carried her to the bathroom where they lay her in the water and both of them tenderly washed and bathed her. Bella began to relax and enjoyed the care they showed her. She could see with their touch and their eyes that they were not disgusted by her at all. She could see the love they had for her.
Harry carefully sat Bella in his lap as he held her. "May I tell you what I saw from everything that happened to you?" Bella couldn't answer but nodded her head instead. "What I saw was someone who was severely tortured and abused for many years and that person's will did not succumb to those that would ravage her. Instead she became more ruthless than they and they soon became her prey."
"The part I most admire about what I saw was when she was given the opportunity, as afraid as she was, she took the path back to the light. She was so strong that no matter what they did to her body, her spirit remained hers. Nobody can ever take that away from you and that is the part that I vow to love for as long as you let me." Harry reached down and held her face as he kissed her with passion. When he moved back there was no falseness in his words, actions, or thoughts… he truly loved her.
Hermione turned Bella's face to hers "I agree with everything that Harry said and I think what I found most endearing is that you came to rescue and save the first love of my life. Without you Bella I would not have Harry, he would have died. I saw the care and concern for him in your heart. He belongs as much to you as he does to me. For that alone I will love you and protect you as long as you will let me."
Hermione got down on one knee and held Bella's hand "Just remember rule number one of our house…we don't do normal. Bella Black I would be honored and very happy if you would marry me and Harry. Will you marry us?" Hermione stood and held Bella's head as she gave her a deep kiss that left Bella just as breathless. When Hermione leaned back she looked at Bella with love.
Bella inside was happier than she had ever thought possible she was screaming yes inside but she got a playful smirk on her face "If I think about it longer will you both kiss my like you just did. Those kisses were really hot." Bella could not help but start laughing at their facial expressions.
Harry and Hermione looked at each other and mouthed "Torture." Harry grabbed Bella arms and Hermione started a slow playful walk with her fingers up Bella's very ticklish side. Bella began to squirm trying to hold in her laughter.
Harry leaned in very close to her ear and whispered "I am afraid you have left us no other choice but to tickle you into submission. Your lovely girlfriend intends to tickle, tease, fondle and arouse you until you scream your undying love and devotion to us. Then you must yell out loudly that you will marry us."
Bella was laughing and getting extremely aroused by Harry trailing kisses down her neck. "OH, foreplay I really like that." Bella's breathing became more rapid as she felt Hermione hands and lips caressing her breasts. Bella began to moan as their attentions made her very aroused. She turned and quickly captured Harry's lips and left them only when she needed air.
By this time Hermione had moved down and had begun to caress her soft folds. This made Bella moan much more loudly. Harry had abandoned her arms to begin to caress her breasts. BY the fifth minute of this attention Bella was begging for release. Harry and Hermione placed her on soft towels and then Harry used a charm to stick her arms above her head while Hermione did the same to keep her legs spread apart.
This made Bella extremely aroused as she could do nothing to stop them from touching her. Harry kissed his way down her stomach then to her thighs and finally reached her core and moaned as the sensations were getting her so close. Hermione had taken her hands and began to tweak her nipples which brought ripples of pleasure to her core. In another five minutes she was truly begging for release as they brought her to the brink several time before backing off.
Hermione smiled down at her "Bella Black I love you. "Will you marry us? As soon as you say yes our husband will give you the release you desire."
Bella opened her smoldering eyes and leaned up to give Hermione a kiss. "I love you both; of course I will marry you."
Harry as soon as he mentally heard her vow proceeded to bring Bella the release she desired. Within a minute she was screaming out her pleasure as Harry kept playing with her as she was coming. After her third orgasm Harry released her legs and Hermione released her arms. Bella lay back limp from the bliss she was feeling.
Harry and Hermione began kissing above her as they ran their hands lightly across her skin which made her quiver in delight. They broke the kiss to look at her satisfied smile. "Love I think we may have broken her." Hermione stated in mock concern. Bella began to laugh as she opened her eyes and looked up at them.
"When will we get married?" Bella asked them. Before they could answer "Could we do it tonight? I want to feel Harry inside me and I won't feel complete until he is." Bella then kissed Hermione's nose "For you I have a naughty little surprise that I am sure you will enjoy greatly. I want to make love to you as well."
Hermione looked at Harry and saw in his eyes that he wanted to be married tonight. "Yes, Bella we will do it now in fact."
Bella jumped up and headed in the other room "Come on you two Fawkes said he has a special surprise for us. He is going to help us say our vows." Harry and Hermione both began to laugh as they got up holding hands as they went into the next room.
In the middle of the floor was a pentagram drawn with three circles at its center and with three triangles centered in the circles. Hermione studied the diagram. Bella turned to them "It's a marriage circle and Fawkes has promised to give his blessing to our marriage. Fawkes was on a stand next to the pentagram trilling happily as Bella stroked his head.
"We must call our staffs and access our triad magic to take our vows with." Bella stated.
Harry looked at her "What is going to happen if we do it this way?"
Bella replied back "I don't know I am following Fawkes instructions… I trust him and this will not harm us."
Harry and Hermione without a second thought held up their hands and summoned their staffs. Bella did a second after them. Bella instructed them in which circle to stand in and they began to chant for their triad magic. With a small breeze to announce the Triad magic's arrival, they lifted their heads as Bella began her vows.
"I Bella Black vow to love and honor my husband Harry Potter and my wife Hermione Emrys-Black-Potter. I vow to fill their days with the same happiness they give me. I vow to protect and defend them as my love demands. This I vow as Lady Bella Emrys-Potter-Black. So mote it be." An arch of energy shot out of Bella's staff and touched both Harry and Hermione's staff.
"I, Hermione Emrys-Black-Potter vow to love and honor my husband Harry potter and my wife Bella Emrys-Potter-Black. I vow to support them in all that they choose to do and to give them the love and Happiness that they give to me. I vow to protect and defend them as my love demands. This I vow as Lady Hermione Emrys-Black-Potter. So mote it Be." Another arch of energy shot from Hermione's staff and touched both Harry and Bella staffs making the original energy beams twice as large.
"I Harry James Potter-Black vow to cherish, love, and honor my wives Hermione Black-Potter and Bellatrix Potter- Black. I vow to protect and defend them from all that wish to harm them. I vow to make each of their days special and to support whatever they wish to pursue. I vow to make theirs and my children's world better than what we have known. With Triad Magic this I vow as Lord and Protector of the Realm Harry Emrys- Potter-Black. So mote it be."
A beam of emerald energy shot forth from Harry's staff and enveloped them in a dome of energy that joined with Hermione's and Bella's. Fawkes flew to the top of the dome and landed and began to trill a calm soothing melody which reached every corner of the castle and in to Hogsmeade. As Fawkes trilled, he began to drop tears into the energy and the energy pulsed as it flowed through each of their staffs.
Harry's head looked up to the ceiling and his scar began to pulse to the rhythm of Fawkes tear drops. Soon a black ghost image emerged from his scar as Harry began to scream in pain. The ghost continued to emerge until finally it was no longer attached to Harry. As it reached the dome of energy, it disappeared in a terror filled scream.
After three minutes Fawkes completed his song and the three moved to the center of the pentagram where the energy dome depleted itself. Harry fell to the floor unconscious. Bella and Hermione kneeled to pick him up and carry him to the bed. Hermione quickly ran to the bedroom to clear the blood from his forehead. Both of them were crying as they could not feel him within their minds. Both of their eyes became heavy and they lay next to Harry and fell asleep.
Harry awoke with a start and his eyes popped open his last memory was of a strange ghost substance coming from his forehead. He reached to touch it and found that his open scar had closed. His senses felt a new awareness to them as if a cloud had been lifted. He looked beside him and found both Bella and Hermione sleeping beside him. He visible relaxed as he felt safe, warm, and content by their side.
Harry closed his eyes and searched for Bella's and Hermione's minds. He found himself on a deserted beach and saw two figures holding each other. He approached them and heard both of them crying. He got within ten feet of them and calmly said "Hello."
Hermione and Bella both jumped when they heard his voice. When they saw him they promptly launched themselves to feel his arms around them. Bella finally got control of herself "Harry are you alright?"
I think so I just woke up a few minutes ago and saw both of you sleeping. I reached out with my mind to feel you and ended up here. I am fine. I really have never felt better.
Hermione kissed his jaw "Do you know what happened?"
"I think I am finally rid of Tom Riddle's soul fragment. How does my forehead look?"
Bella touched it "Your scar has closed up and it looks like it has faded a little."
Harry got a lopsided grin on his face "You know it is not every day a bloke finds himself on a beach like this with two extremely beautiful and sexy women." Harry looked around and motioned them to get closer as he whispered "You know if you want to have some fun we could have it but we have to keep an eye out for my wives… we can't let them know." He gave them a big smile.
Hermione leaned forward "I don't know Bella. He is very sexy but seems to be a bit scrawny we might want to throw him back and wait for a bigger one, what do you think?" Bella let a light laugh out as she moved forward and grabbed his shaft to work her hand slowly up and down it.
"I don't know love he is awfully sexy and rather attractive." Bella looked down and he seems to be growing by leaps and bounds, it is rather impressive tackle he has here." Hermione reached down and tenderly fondled his balls which caused Harry to release a small moan.
Hermione had kneeled down and had placed the head of his cock in her warm wet mouth. Bella kneeled down too and continued to slowly up and down while Hermione worked more of him into her mouth. Hermione released him from her mouth and Bella took over as Hermione continued to play with his balls.
Harry's knees were getting weaker and his moans came out stronger. Soon Harry was letting them know that he was about ready. Hermione then placed him back in her mouth and continued until he released. Harry fell to the ground with a smile on his face.
They snuggled up to him and he began to lazily trade kisses on each of their necks and ears as they were kissing each other. Harry asked Bella to lie on her back and for Hermione to kneel above her where the girls were now facing each other.
Harry began to rub their butts and their centers as the girls began to moan. Harry leaned in and began to lick and kiss their centers until he had worked each girl to an orgasm. He placed a special spell on himself and then he quietly asked permission to enter the girls and taking their virginity. Both girls began to feel him enter them and could feel his size begin to stretch them.
Harry was very careful to go easy and monitored the amount of pain they were feeling. He soon found their barriers and with them urging him on, he burst through where he stopped until they adjusted and the pain had subsided.
Within minutes both girls were panting heavily and all three could feel the buildup to a very pleasurable experience for all of them. Bella began to cry as her emotions became as overloaded as her body and they soon succumbed to a blissful release. Hermione and Bella cried out and Harry drove into them as deep as he could as he signaled his release.
Hermione had laid her head on Bella's shoulder as she shifted to the side and Harry lay down on the opposite side of Bella. They had their eyes closed as they enjoyed the post coital bliss. Hermione looked up at Bella who opened her eyes and looked at her. Hermione then reached over to Harry and caressed his cheek.
Hermione looked down at Harry's lower region where she saw two penis' staring up at her. She lifted in shock "What the hell is that?" Hermione asked
Harry rolled over and placed his hands behind his head with a smug smile he looked at her "My creative solution to how to satisfy my wives at the same time or as professor Flitwick would say that is a most creative use of transfiguration for dueling.
Hermione began to bust out laughing which made Bella wonder what was going on. She looked down and saw exactly what had Hermione in stitches. Harry had transfigured another Penis above his natural one. Bella began to bring a full Bella laugh as well.
It was a few minutes later that Bella and Hermione had settled down on each side of Harry in wonder and awe. Bella looked at them and smiled "In our house we definitely don't do normal. How did you ever come up with this idea?"
Harry smiled "I wanted our first time to all be together and not one of us waiting their turn. So after beating my brains out, this is what I came up with. Hermione and Bella just looked at him before they both answered together "Our dear husband that was Brilliant!" they exclaimed to him.
Harry very satisfied now replied "Thank you… you may grovel at your leisure my ladies."
It took Bella and Hermione all of ten seconds to pounce before their fingers began their all-out tickle war on Harry. It would be thirty minutes later that they all fell asleep with very happy smiles on their faces.
