Standard Disclaimer: I don't own any of the recognizable characters.
When Nymphodora woke up the next morning, she had to smile at the sight next to her. This was the first time she had woken up next to someone she had sex with where she wanted to stay, being more the type for one night stands. Last night had been the best night of her life and she knew there would be many more like this.
She could never have guessed when she arrived last night that she would find out that she was mated to her cousin and his wives. She had dreamed from a young age that she would someday find a love like this, and now that she had the love of her dreams, she couldn't be happier.
He was still fast asleep, and she cuddled into his side again, thinking about everything that had happened over the last few days. She hadn't told him yet, but last night she had a different dream, and she was wondering if they had the same one.
In her dream they were all standing in front of a big rock with eight different runes on it and eight handprints in front of them, and as soon as they placed their hands on the handprints the stone glowed and she saw a vision of two people who had a resemblance to them. They said something to them, but she couldn't recall what.
She noticed how slowly her lover was waking up and pulled her a bit closer. "Good morning beautiful, sleep okay" He asked softly.
She had to blush at that. "I slept amazing love, I can't remember the last time I slept so good. Did you sleep okay?" She said with a smile.
He gave her a soft kiss and pulled her a bit closer "Likewise love, I slept wonderful with you next to me." He said softly.
Nym smiled and pulled him into a kiss while she straddled him again. "I love you Fabian, thank you for last night, it was the best night of my life." She said with a soft smile.
"I love you too Nym. And thank you too for last night, it was amazing for me too." He said with a smile.
She blushed and kissed him again, sliding off of him again and cuddling into him a bit more.
He smiled and pulled her a bit closer "Would you like to join me for a shower love? I think we both deserve one." He said with a soft smile.
Nym nodded and followed her lover to the bathroom, gasping slightly when she saw it. "This is probably the biggest bathroom I have ever seen outside of school. But it's only expected if seven people live in a house." She said with a smile.
Fabian smiled at that "Indeed love, this bathroom is big enough for all of us, it even has a few massage tables. Hermione is especially good at those. And who knows, perhaps soon this will be a home for eight people." He said softly.
She only smiled and joined him in the shower, kissing him again when the spray hit them.
As was usual when he shared a shower with one of his mates they spent almost as much time getting clean together as they did feeling each other up.
About an hour later they stepped out of the bathroom and Fabian could smell how breakfast was cooking downstairs. "I think our mates prepared us a nice breakfast love, shall we join them downstairs?" He asked with a smile.
She nodded and followed him downstairs, her mouth already watering in preparation for the food the girls had prepared for them.
When they came downstairs they saw how Fleur, Yvette and Bella were putting the finishing touches on breakfast, while Luna and Gabrielle were cuddled up in one of the sofa's.
"Good morning you two, I trust you had a pleasant evening?" Bella asked with a smile.
Nym blushed at that "We did Bella, thank you for asking. It really was the most amazing night of my life." She said with a soft smile.
The girls all smiled at that "As it was for all of us Nym, it's even more a sign that you are a part of our Bond." Hermione said as she kissed the Metamorph.
Nym blushed and sat down in one of the loveseats next to Yvette, who wrapped an arm around her.
They ate breakfast in silence, Nym sneaking glances at all of them, smiling softly to herself.
After breakfast Nym decided to tell them her surprise. "I've got something to tell you which might make this easier on all of us. Because Umbridge has been appointed your new Defense teacher, Kingsley insisted that she'd be monitored since she failed her N.E.W.T. in Defense twice. He has appointed me as the person to monitor her, so I'll be at school for the entire year with you all." She said with a smile.
All of them smiled brightly at that "that's great Nym, we were a bit worried about you when we went back to school, we were talking about that last night." Fleur said after she kissed her.
She blushed slightly from that "The only problem we'll have is during the night, but I think I'll be able to cope with that." She said softly.
"We have our own room which you are more than welcome to join us in, that way you would never have to feel the separation during the year, Fabian and I found that out the hard way last year." Hermione said softly.
Nym only nodded at that "I can understand that, in that case I would love to join you in your room. It will certainly give me the chance to get to know you all a bit better." She said with a wink to the others.
The girls let out a light laugh and all of them joined her on the couch, except for Bella, who was relaxing in Fabian's arms with a content smile on her face.
"There was another thing I wanted to ask you all. I had a strange dream last night where we were all standing in front of a strange looking stone with handprints and symbols on it, and as soon as we touched it two figures appeared. I was just wondering if you knew something about that?" she asked with a soft smile.
They all shared a glance with each other and shook their head. "This can't be a coincidence, we had the same dream last night, but personally I don't recognize the stone or the two people." Bella said softly.
"I had the same dream, I think now that our Bond is complete it's pushing us to find out which element of magic we represent, maybe if we can find out where this stone is we can find out more. I think we should try and remember any detail we can about this stone and its surroundings. Maybe it would help if we take a walk around the island something will help us remember anything." Fabian said with a smile.
The girls all nodded and made their way upstairs to change. It was the middle of August and it had been a hot summer so far and today was no different. Since Nym didn't have any other clothes with her, Fleur offered her to take on of her bikini's since they had the same size.
They quickly came down and Bella handed him his Bermuda's, all of them blushing slightly as he put them on.
…
As they walked around the island, Nym had to smile while she walked hand in hand with Fleur. "I still find it so amazing that I'm part of this Bond, and to have all of this at our disposal, it's just mind boggling." She said softly.
"I know love, it surprised us too when we found out our Bond. but this island is only part of the assets what we received when we got married. Fabian got access to the Markov family Vault and all its assets, among other things." Fleur said with a soft smile.
Nym only nodded and rested her head against the blonde witches' shoulders as Fleur wrapped an arm around her.
A little while later they reached the highest point on the island, from which they could see the entire island. "Girls, do you all see what I am seeing? That rock looks suspiciously like the rock from our dreams." He said as he scanned the horizon.
The girls nodded at that "It does love, shall we check it out? If it is the stone from our dreams it's bound to have some info." Hermione said with a soft smile.
He nodded and followed them towards the stone, all of them gasping slightly when they saw the markings on it. "This is the one girls, there is no doubt about it, these markings are just too precise." He said as he slowly let his fingers run over it.
"I think it is love, the handprints are as clear as glass, but how do we know which one belongs to who?" Nym asked softly.
He smiled and gave her a kiss. "We have to think back to our dream and try to remember our positions." He said softly.
"Or we check the stone a bit closer and find our initials." Hermione said with a laugh as she took a closer look at the stone.
They all took a closer look and smiled at that. They could see their initials beneath each of the handprints.
They took their positions and laid their hands in the shape before them, the handprints glowing as Gabrielle placed her hand in it. The glow kept getting brighter to the point they had to close their eyes.
After a while the glow lessened and when they opened their eyes they saw two figures floating above the stones, a man and a woman who both wore resemblances to all of them.
"Do not be frightened young ones, we mean you no harm. We can imagine you have a lot of questions about who we are and why we have chosen to show ourselves to you now. I am Merlin and this is my wife and mate Morgana. The fact that you have found your way to us means that you all are our descendants and are mated together." Merlin said with a kind smile.
"It also means that you all have consummated your Bond and thus are ready for the information we have to offer you. we have watched you from beyond this realm for years and gently guided your relationship. We know there is once again a great evil that threatens your world and we are here to help you quell it. You have all shown great ingenuity and courage over the last year and thus have made sure this evil is much weaker than it could be. From now on if you ever need us, call upon your element and we will help you in every way we can." Morgana said with a smile.
Fabian shared a look with his mates and then looked back to the warlock and witch "We do have a lot of questions, but most of them can wait, but can you tell us how we find out what our elements are? We haven't got a clue at this point." He said softly.
Morgana smiled kindly at them "We shall unlock the hidden potential locked within you. You will all receive a Rune on your bodies which represent your elements, and if you want to contact us, place your right hand over the rune and think of us, and we shall appear."
She then turned to Bella, who was at the far left. "To you Bellatrix, we grant the power of Conjuration. You have been through so much in your life and we know your happiest times are with your mates. Your Patronus will now be able to deflect the strongest of Dark beings.
Luna, with your great insight to the world above, to you we grant the power of Divination, and while this does not mean you will be able to see the future, you will be able to read it in the stars.
Yvette, your passion for your mates and friends is almost unequaled, to you we grant the power of Evocation. The elements are at your disposal, but use this power wisely. While it can't harm your mates, it can be dangerous.
Hermione, we grant you the power of Enchantment, we know your mind has always been your greatest asset and this power will make sure it will continue to be for a long time.
Fabian, your dedication to the protection of your mates has no equal, to you we grant the power of Abjuration. Your shields will be impenetrable for any Dark beings trying to penetrate it.
Nymphodora, your ability was granted to you for a reason as you might suspect, to you we grant the power of Transmutation. No one besides your mates will ever be able to see through your Morphing ability again.
Fleur, your Veela heritage has helped your mates on several occasions, to you we grant the power of Healing, any injury suffered by your mates, no matter how severe will be able to be healed by you.
And Gabrielle, you have an imagination beyond reckoning, to you we grant the power of Illusion. You will be able to hide yourself and your mates from sight and expose a Dark one's greatest fears." Morgana finished with a soft smile.
They all felt a slight sensation on their chest where the rune shaped itself. Merlin and Morgana smiling at them when the sensation faded "Our time here grows short young ones, if you would ever need us, don't hesitate to call on us. For now we say protect each other and your friends, they will prove invaluable in the coming battles. For now we have to say goodbye, until next time." Merlin said with a soft smile.
"Until next time, and thank you for these gifts you have bestowed on us." Fabian said as the spirits dissipated.
As they pulled their hand off of the stone, they smiled at each other "well my lovelies, I guess we don't have to search or do research anymore. Because everything we want to know is just a thought away." Hermione said softly.
They nodded and smiled at the brunette "I know love, it's mind boggling how much we have learned over the last few months, it's enough to make your head explode." Luna said with a dreamy smile.
"Fortunately we have each other to help us cope with all this information, no matter what will happen we will always have each other in the years to come." Yvette said with a smile.
Fabian smiled at that "We certainly have love, we will always be able to help each other. and I promise that I will always protect you." He said softly.
The girls smiled and kissed him softly "we know love, and we will do the same for you, among other things." Bella said with a wink.
He groaned and kissed her softly "Tonight love, let's give ourselves some time to process the things we've learned today. First I think we deserve a nice lunch and then we'll see what happens." He said with a soft smile.
They all nodded and followed their lover back to the house, all of them clearly in their own worlds and thoughts.
After lunch and changing into fresh clothes, Nym sat them down for a bit. "I have something I wanted to ask you. Fabian basically asked me yesterday if I would like to move in with you, and the more I think about it, the more I realize I can't be parted from any of you for another day. I love you all so much and I want to be close to you. so I wanted to ask you, are you okay with that?" She asked softly.
They all smiled at her and the girls sat beside her on the couch to hug her. "Of course we are okay with that Nym, we love you too. If you want we can help you move your things here." Hermione said as she kissed her.
Nym blushed and nodded at them "I would appreciate that, I don't have much, but there are things I will need here." She said softly.
The girls smiled again and kissed her softly. "Then it's settled, we'll go get your things from your home, but I think Bella and Fabian won't be joining us, seeing as the have lost themselves in each other again." Fleur said as she looked to their lovers, who were kissing and groping each other on the couch.
"I'll come too, they deserve some time alone." Gabrielle said with a soft smile.
The others nodded and followed Nym to the Floo, all of them taking a last look at their lovers before they stepped through the Flames.
…
"Did I just hear the Floo?" Bella asked as she broke their kiss.
He nodded and smiled at her "They have gone to pick up Nym's things from her apartment. We have the house all to ourselves for at least a couple of hours." He said suggestively.
She smiled at that "Are you thinking what I am thinking baby?" She asked huskily.
He just gave her a kiss and nodded, picking her up from the couch and walking up the stairs to their bedroom.
Bella slung her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply as they walked up the stairs. "I love you Fabe." She said with a soft smile.
"I love you too baby, now and forever." He said softly.
When they entered the bedroom and Fabian had put her back on her feet, they lost little time in getting each other naked.
She pulled him into another kiss and started walking towards the bed. "I need to feel you inside of me Fabe, but treat me rough like our first time. It's been so long since we have done that." She said huskily.
He smiled at that "If that's what you want baby, you know I'd do anything to make you happy." He said as he kissed her.
"I know baby, that's why I'm asking this now that we're alone." She said with a soft smile.
He gave her a kiss and gave her an evil smile "Well bitch if you want it rough, you can have it. Start sucking." He said with a smirk.
"Yes master, whatever you want." She said as she took him into her mouth.
He put a hand behind her head and slowly started guiding her mouth up and down his penis, smiling softly when he felt how she let him have control.
After a few minutes he pulled her back and smiled at her. "Get on the bed with your ass my way, you are so naughty that I will spank you before I take you." He said with an evil smile.
"Yes master, please punish me for being such a whore." She said as she positioned herself over the bed.
At the sight of her body draped over the bed Fabian had to contain a groan, she kept getting more beautiful by the day and he thanked god yet again she was his mate. He positioned himself behind her and let his hands glide over her butt, getting a lovely moan from his wife.
As soon his hand connected with her butt Bellatrix let out a loud yelp, which turned into a loud moan. He alternated between both cheeks and after a while both of her cheeks were a nice shade of red, while the juices ran down her legs.
"You're enjoying yourself aren't you bitch. You love it when I spank you don't you." He asked with a smirk on his face.
Bellatrix nodded at that "yes master, I love it when you treat me like a slut." She said softly.
He smiled at that "Yes you are a slut, but you are my slut, and now I'm going to fuck you like one. But I want to see your face while I do it. So get on the bed and spread your legs for your master." He said as he kissed her roughly.
Bellatrix blushed and positioned herself on the bed with her legs spread "Of course master, I am yours to use forever." She said softly
"That's a good girl, I'm glad you can still follows orders. Now get ready because you made me harder than ever." He said as he positioned himself above her.
He slid himself inside of her in one thrust and groaned as he felt how wet she was for him. "You're really wet slut, I love it." He said as he started massaging her breasts.
She moaned when she felt him pinch her nipples. "It's all for you master. My body will always be yours." She said before he kissed her.
As Fabian picked up his pace he felt he couldn't last much longer. "I'm going to come slut, I'm going to fill you up to the brim." He said huskily.
She smiled and kissed him deeply "Please do master, I live for your semen inside my body." She said panting.
He smiled and kissed her deeply as he came deep inside of her, Bellatrix moaning loudly as she came too.
Once they both had come down from their orgasms a bit Fabian pulled himself out of his wife and cuddled up beside her. "That was amazing love, was it good for you too?" He asked softly.
She nodded and kissed him "You were amazing love, you know I love it when you treat me rough." She said with a soft smile.
"I know baby, but it's getting more difficult for me to do that. My love for you is making it difficult to stay in character." He said as he rested his head on her breasts.
Bella smiled and kissed the top of his head. "I could tell love, but we'll figure something out, and maybe we'll have to think of something new. Maybe some incest roleplay, like the one I know you've done with Fleur a few times." She said softly.
He smiled at that "We could try that sometime love, but what do you say about a shower. I think we could both use one." He said as he kissed her.
She nodded and picked him up for a change, smiling as he nuzzled his head between her breasts.
As they stepped into the shower Fabian pulled her into a deep kiss "I love you so much baby, and I will love you forever." He said softly.
"I love you too baby, forever and always." She said as she pulled him close to her body.
He kissed her again and cupped her butt, lifting her slightly. Bella wrapped her legs around his waist and moaned into their kiss. "Love, as much as I would like to do this again, I don't want to tire you out, you know how dangerous that can be." She said with a soft smile.
He smiled as she set herself back on her feet. "I'm sorry love, I just need to feel close to you right now, I've been feeling we've been drifting apart a bit over the last days." He said softly.
Bella turned off the shower and led him outside to dry themselves off. "Love I want you to listen and listen closely. Our world has been turned upside down several times over the last few days, and our Bond pushed us to complete it with all of them. It would be hard to comprehend for anyone. But we all love you, no matter with which of our mates you share the bed. How about tonight we'll all share with you again, maybe that will help you a bit." She said as she kissed him softly.
Fabian smiled at that "Thank you love, I really needed to hear that. I know there is no reason to feel like this but my brain is still playing catch up with everything." He said with a soft sigh.
She smiled and gave him a soft kiss. "I understand love, and I'm sure the others will understand as well. For all of us it has taken some getting used to, but we can't imagine how it must be for you." She said softly.
He smiled and hugged her tightly before they walked back to the bedroom to get dressed again, Bella pulling her lover into her arms again once they were. "How about we go downstairs and relax until the others come back with Nym's things, you still look a bit tired." She said with a soft smile.
He nodded and gave her a kiss before they walked downstairs with smiles on their faces.
…
A few hours later the others stepped out of the Floo and smiled when they saw their two lovers in each other's arms. "Hey you two, did you have fun together?" Nym asked once she had dusted herself off.
They shared a glance and smiled at their lovers. "We did love, thank you for asking. Did you get everything from your house?" He asked with a smile.
Nym nodded at that "We did, we just have to get everything situated now." She said with a smile.
The two smiled at them and stood up "we'll do it with you, a thank you for giving us some time alone today." Bella said as she kissed Nym softly.
She blushed and smiled at them. "It's no bother, I don't have that many things, it'll only take a few minutes." She said softly.
Nym then produced the boxes from her bag and together with Bella and Fabian she carried them upstairs.
As Nym had predicted it only took a few minutes to get everything situated in one of the rooms, and her clothes found their place in the giant closet. "I still can't believe how many closet space and clothes you have, it's so amazing." Nym said softly.
Bella smiled at her "That's probably because Fabian was kind enough to take us shopping a few weeks ago, and that really expanded our closets, I'm sure if you ask him nicely he'll take you shopping too." She said with a wink to her husband.
"Really Fabe, you would do that for me?" She asked with bright eyes.
He smiled at that "How could I say no to you baby, if you want we can go tomorrow, I believe Gabby also wanted some more things to wear." He said as he kissed her.
She flew into his arms and kissed him deeply "Thank you baby, that's the kindest thing anyone has ever done for me. I'll never forget this." She said with a bright smile.
"Anything for you my love. But there is one thing I want to buy for you as well, I want to buy you the same broom I bought for the others, once we go on our honeymoon we're going to use them to travel." He said with a soft smile.
Nym's eyes widened a bit. "Won't that be expensive love, Fleur told me which brooms you bought for them, and truth be told I have been saving for the same one." She said softly.
He just smiled at her "We don't have anything to worry about love, we have enough money so that none of us will ever have to work, but I know that's not like us so we'll have any luxury we want instead." He said as he kissed her.
She smiled and together with her lovers made her way back downstairs.
As they entered the living room the others were smiling at them "we heard most of your conversation, and I think it's really sweet you want to take your sister and cousin tomorrow, despite the fact that you really dislike shopping." Hermione said with a smile.
He smiled and took a seat next to her "You know I would do anything to make my mates happy, even shopping." He said softly.
They all smiled at him "we know love, and we love you for it." Yvette said as she kissed him.
Fabian blushed and received kisses from all of his mates, who cuddled up beside him. "So love, what are the plans for dinner? We're getting kind of hungry." Luna asked softly.
He smiled at that "Well, since we do have several things to celebrate, so what do you say we go out to eat tonight?" He asked them with a soft smile.
The girls shared a glance and nodded at him "We can do that love, but nothing too fancy, I think the company matters more than the location." Bella said with a soft smile.
Fabian nodded and followed his lover upstairs to change for dinner.
Once they had changed they apparated away to London, going to the same restaurant they had been to before.
…
After dinner they were all absolutely exhausted, and figured it would do them good to go to bed early.
"Before we go to bed girls, I have something to ask you all. Bella and I had a talk today and I was hoping you would join us in bed. I know we made some sort of an agreement, but the truth is, I need to feel you close." He said softly.
The girls hugged him tightly. "Of course we will baby, Bella told us what had happened and we understand you need us. And we are only glad to help you through this, for as long as you need." Gabrielle said softly.
"Even if that means it would be permanent. I can't fool myself anymore. I need you all close, I just can't live with the separation anymore, even it's just a few feet." He said sadly.
The girls shared a look with each other and led him to the bed while they undressed him and themselves with a flick of their wands. They then laid him down and cuddled up to him as best they could. "Now you listen to us baby, we've been through this before, we love you and we want nothing else than to be close to you. We also feel the pain in our hearts when we are lying in the other bed. We just didn't say anything because we didn't want to worry you. Now we wish we did, then we could have avoided this situation." Hermione said as she kissed him.
He smiled and kissed them all softly. "Thanks girls, I love you so much, and thank you for loving me." He said softly.
"That speaks for itself love, you have captured all of our hearts with your words and kindness alone. We're honored to be your mates." Fleur said with a smile.
He kissed them again and rested his head on the pillow, smiling as the girls cuddled a bit closer to him. "I think it's time we get some sleep my lovelies, otherwise we'll be up all night if we keep talking like this." He said sleepily.
The girls nodded and kissed him before they kissed each other. "You're right love, and since you have a shopping trip tomorrow, it's best if we get some sleep." They all said softly.
"Sweet dreams my lovelies. I love you." He said before he closed his eyes.
"We love you too Fabe. Sweet dreams." The girls said before planting a soft kiss on his cheek before closing their eyes, all of them quickly falling asleep.
