Chapter Fourteen
Luna Lovegood was standing at her window when Harry arrived. She held out her arm and allowed him to perch on her forearm.
"Hi Harry. I've been expecting you."
Harry transformed. "Hey Luna, how'd you know it was me?" he said as he stretched languidly.
She simply returned his question with her dreamy smile, which made her appear to so many people, as though she did not understand or see the world around her. Harry knew better. She was an observant little scoundrel and she often knew about things as soon as or before they happened. He frequently wondered if she had any seer abilities, though before his inheritance he had believed all seers were farces like Trelawney but now he knew that it was simply a very rare talent that manifests itself in unconnected, random individuals who were inevitably destined to change the course of the future. He was here in the hopes that his friend Luna would change the future for him.
And just as if she had read his mind Luna seated herself on the windowsill and declared, "Of course Harry, all you need to do is ask."
He blinked, then knelt in front of her and grasped her hands. "My darling, sweet, Luna. My friend, my confidante, will you help me please. I have plans to rework this world into something that the wizarding public can be proud of. That will be a utopia for my children and their children and their children's children. I have finally embraced the Slytherin ambition that has been dormant for so long and I plan on ruling that utopia, with Hermione by my side. I want you there as my advisor Luna. I need your unique insight into the world and your god awful ability to say exactly what I'm doing wrong to my face."
Luna smiled again but this time she seemed more focused on the man in front of her. A reassuring, knowing smile. "Harry, you will be a great leader one day, but did you really have to join Voldemort to get there?" She said with an exasperated sigh.
Harry spluttered. "I don't intend to keep him around Luna. He's out the door as soon as the Death Eaters are under my thumb. The ploy allows me to get hands on the filth of society and eliminated the unsavoury components while creating a ready made force with many resources, infiltrated into the most important areas of our world. Plus they are ready for change unlike Dumbledore's lackeys. Revolution is coming."
Luna chuckled. "And you will show them true change Harry. Or should I call you Raven?" she smiled down at him. "Now, as lovely as it is to have you visit darling, I think Hermione is getting impatient. What was it you were going to ask me?"
Harry grinned back at his dear friend that he had discovered in the DA last year. "I'm not going back to school this year and neither is Hermione and I need you to be my spy in Hogwarts. Keep an eye on Dumbledore for me, and I need a student's perspective of the school. Will you do that for me?"
"Yes Harry, I will." She swore. "Whom am I reporting to?"
"Severus Snape will be your contact."
"Excellent. Now get going, go see your Hermione."
"See you on the train Luna."
Harry shook his head with a slight smile on his face as he leaped out the window and transformed.
--------------
So far Hermione had been at the Burrow for a week and she had fallen into the habit of avoiding Ron at all costs. He seemed determined to secure her as his girlfriend.
His bumbling was amusing on one level but after Harry had told her about Ron and Ginny's behaviour when he appeared at the Order meeting, she could hardly stomach the idea of Ron going anywhere near her, and that was before comparing him with her dashing Harry. Ron just didn't measure up.
Today, Hermione was in the living room, on one of the comfy couches with a book on Dark Arts that Harry and she had picked up in Knockturn Alley. She had disguised it as a sixth year transfiguration textbook.
Reading had managed to dissuade Ron from approaching for the last couple of days but he didn't seem to take the hint just then. Hermione was absentmindedly playing with the raven necklace Harry had given her. She missed him.
Ron caught her hand with his and inspected the necklace. "Who gave you this?" he demanded.
"It was a gift Ronald." Said Hermione snatching it back and returning to her book.
"I could get you a necklace. You shouldn't be wearing jewellery from someone else when you are going out with me!"
Standing in fluid motion Hermione replied in a chilly voice, "You never have and never will be my boyfriend. Someone who loves me, and who listens to my wishes gave this to me. I have made it abundantly clear that I have no interest in going out with you Ronald, you are a immature adolescent with absolutely no understanding about how to behave as a man capable of understanding me."
With the conclusion of that speech she almost flew up the steps to the room she was sharing with Ginny. She entered the room and flopped down on her bed. She missed Harry and just wished he would come for his promised visit today.
No sooner had Ginny left for her morning shower than a midnight black raven soared through the window straight to his pining girl. He transformed as he settled on the bed and curved himself around his love.
"Hello my beautiful girl." He whispered in her ear.
"Oh Harry, I'm so glad you are here." Hermione wiggled around so she was facing her lover and received a passion filled kiss that brushed any thoughts of Ron to the back of her mind. "I do believe we have a spare hour while Ginny is in the shower, lover boy."
Talking could be completed later with the twins, at the moment they had an hour to themselves and they hadn't seen each other for a week.
Harry lowered his mouth to her white blouse and started to unbutton her shirt with his teeth and tongue. Hermione lay on the bed, arching her back as Harry's teeth scraped down her front. He popped the button restraining her breasts and they sprung free unconfined and Harry groaned in approval. Her perky bosom taunted him and he abandoned his task to swirl his tongue around the areola, eliciting a moan from his goddess.
She was squirming delectably under his body as his tongue worked away at her nipple. She had yearned for this all week and just his tongue was teasing her towards her climax. He bit her nub before soothing it with his tongue making her arch up and release a wanton moan.
"Ssh my angel. There are others in the house."
She whimpered in frustration. "Put a silencing spell up then." She snapped down at Harry's wicked grin.
"No. Be silent as I milk you."
She released an almost inaudible groan half in annoyance and half in anticipation as Harry's mouth returned to her body.
Satisfied with her mewling, Harry moved further down flicking at her belly button. Hermione was so close and she needed his sinful tongue buried inside her. As if he had read her mind the knickers she had worn to bed and hadn't changed out of were slipped over her knees and that tongue was lapping at her folds. That sent Hermione over the edge biting her lip so she didn't make a noise. Harry swallowed every drop before snaking up her body and kissing her soundly as he slid inside, not allowing her to come down from the high.
Slowly he started pumping in and out and as it built higher Harry attached himself to her lips to stifle the sounds neither could suppress. They came together with a sense of completeness that they had missed while apart.
Wishing they could lazy around for longer they got up and after some cleaning spells, dressed. Stealing another kiss Harry transformed and took his perch upon Hermione's arm. They moved out of Ginny and Hermione's room down a floor to the twins abode.
Hermione manoeuvred them into the room where the two identical red heads were still snoozing and put up extensive locking and silencing charms. While she was occupied Harry transformed and together they jumped on a twin each.
One yelled, "Get off, Fred I'm sleeping," while Fred yelled the same replacing his name with George.
"You got the wrong people here mates." Harry grinned.
The twins raised their heads blearily. Once the sleep was out of their eyes and they spotted him they yelled, "Harry! You have some explaining to do mate." The two bounced over to Harry in their boxers.
Hermione chuckled at their antics, which caused the twins to notice her presence. They promptly flushed and scrambled for shirts.
"What you doing in here Hermione? This is a boys only discussion." Said Fred.
"She's with me, aren't you Baby?" Harry sung as he drew Hermione close and smiled down at her.
"Thank god, so none of this will get back to Ron, good." Replied George as the twins continued to throw clothes on then settle on Fred's bed.
Harry spun Hermione around to face him, "Ron, what has been happening to do with Ron, that little shit had better not have touched you Hermione." Harry then started running his hands over her, reassuring himself that she was exactly as he left her.
"Harry," she giggled, "I didn't let Ron near me, he is a pig headed idiot who wouldn't take a hint, and stop it the Twins are here." She slapped his hands away.
"Sorry fellas, I haven't seen my lass in a week." Harry grinned after he stole a kiss.
"Hermione we'll look after you,-"
"now we know you're with Harry you can-"
"come hang with us and we'll-"
"keep our brother away from you." Alternated the twins.
Seating himself and Hermione on George's bed Harry turned serious, "Now I have some news. I'm sure you all saw that article with the new dark mark, yes?"
"Yeah mate, well done on that by the way. –"
"That was you right? We saw the raven and remembered how you transformed after the meeting –"
"Made the connection"
"Yup, that was me. All the Death Eaters now have that mark on their forearms too. A complex bit of wand work that offed Mrs LeStrange. Couldn't let her continue running around."
"Good choice mate –"
"but aren't you meant to be building the ranks rather than destroying them."
"We mean LeStrange, Pettigrew and Avery…"
"You have to get rid of the rubbish. Call it redecorating, if you like. Voldemort's ideals aren't what I strive for so I am taking over his reign. I already have complete control over his little minions." Here he gave a Cheshire grin, "I rigged the marks so I have their life in my hands. I can monitor them through this," he pulled out a necklace identical to Hermione's raven chain. "You can too my darling. I simply speak their name and tap the raven with my wand and I get a projected image of whatever that person is doing. Anyone you lot would like to see?"
"Ooh, lets check out Severus." Hermione blushed and Harry grinned knowing just from that, that she would have no objections to Snape in their bed.
"Alright, the snarky git, it is." Declared one of the twins, ignorant of what was happening between the couple across the room.
Harry then grasped the raven on the chain and declared, "Severus Snape." Before tapping the figure with his wand.
Next thing the four knew, a holographic image of their old Potions Professor flickered to life in front of them.
Severus was bent over a cauldron, black locks held at the nape of his neck by a leather thong. Harry shifted slightly, readjusting his robes while Hermione squirmed. Severus pushed a strand of hair off his face and turned to ground something with mortar and pestle before slowly scraping it into the cauldron as he stirred anticlockwise. Both Harry and Hermione remained transfixed by the view.
"Predictable really, the potions master making a potion.-" Started George.
"So now you have control of the Death Eaters-"
"What's the next step oh mighty one?" Finished the twins together.
Harry snapped out of it and returned to the present. "Well the next plot is to discredit Dumbledore. That is where you two come in. I need some snooping done. The aim is to ruin Dumbledore's reputation, have him removed from Headmaster, thrown off the Wizengamot, his money ferreted away and him left in nothing but those highly florescent robes he adores, to watch his manipulations collapse around him and his allies forget him."
"You really can-"
"be wicked, you little devil."
"The Weasley twins to the rescue, we'll dig up the old man's dirty deeds, you can count on us."
"We know you can boys, that's why Harry came to you."
Harry then instructed the duo, "Boys, go down and entertain your Mum, I need to talk to Hermione."
"So long as there is no sex in the beds." Shot back George as they exited.
"Toodles" Fred waggled his fingers in their direction.
"So," said Harry huskily, as he turned to Hermione, "you are interested in Severus, aren't you Honey?" he lent in and nibbled on the lobe of her ear. "I thought you may agree with me."
"Hmmm," Hermione squirmed. "What can I say I like my men tall, dark haired and handsome," she paused as he moved further down to her neck, "not to mention intelligent. I'm not sure I could be with someone unable to," she shivered as he lapped at her collarbone, releasing a faint moan, "stimulate me."
"Yes, I'm sure his long fingers would be able to stimulate you well." He whispered against her skin.
"That's not what I meant you sex addict! I was referring to his wit and his intellectual conversation and his magical knowledge and experience." Harry removed her shirt and pulled her bra down to release the trapped nipple, then took it into his mouth. "Though I have no aversion to a second pair of talented hands."
Hermione lost herself as Harry's simple action took over her senses. She was climbing higher and higher. Harry brought his hand up to cup her other breast and entice those beautiful mewls that were now emitting from his lovers throat. He continued his ministrations until she came with a cry and soaked her jeans. Harry scooped her up and let her recover on the nearest bed, sitting next to her he bent down and kissed her lovingly on the forehead.
After catching her breath Hemione sat up and spelled herself clean. "You are amazing Harry." She engaged him in a passionate kiss. "So what is the plan to get a second tall, dark-haired handsome in my bed?" she probed cheekily.
"I don't know about your bed Honey, considering its me he has been falling over his heels to dote on." He replied to her teasing.
"You've already started! You are too sure of yourself Harry Potter."
"You wouldn't like it any other way missy." Hermione rolled her eyes. "That man is addicted to power and you and I have that in abundance 'Mione. Why don't we introduce the idea of the three of us when you arrive in Headquarters."
"Talking about Headquarters, when are you going to rescue your sweet damsel in distress from the idiots in this house? Molly cant stop talking about how you must be curled up on some street corner like a beggar," Hermione sneered, "I almost blew up at her the other day, almost cast one of those curses you taught me in the Alley."
"Please try to refrain from cursing the Weasleys, I don't want anyone to know about our role in the war yet. You'll be glad to know that Luna agreed to spy for us at Hogwarts, so I will be rescuing you my darling on the train on the 1st. It is only a little while longer. When they start standing on your last straw think of me and our plans, and if that doesn't work take refuge with the Twins."
"Okay." She paused looking slightly nervous, before mustering her courage, "I love you Harry."
He beamed, "I love you Hermione."
They embraced and shared a gentle, tender kiss.
"Unfortunately, duty is calling me away but after the 1st, you will be with me every step of the way."
"Goodbye Harry, I'll see you then."
He lend in and kissed the tip of her nose. "Goodbye my Love." With that he apparated away with a faint pop.
