Chapter 21

The Beginning of the End

The Alarm had gone off and Harry and Hessa were jerked out of their sleep. "Shit!" Harry jumped out of bed, he knew exactly who and what it was…it was instinct, it wasn't Voldemort, his scar wasn't hurting enough…it was most likely his Death Eaters, and if they knew Hessa was here, Draco Malfoy would be with them.

"Harry?" Hessa said in alarm.

"You need to stay in here until I can find out what's happening."

"NO!"

"Do as I say!" Harry grabbed his shirt and pants and got dressed quickly. He then kissed Hessa on the forehead, "please…for me." She nodded and watched as he went out the door. She got dressed quickly and looked out the window…they had covered the block…Death Eaters.

"Oh no," she whispered and teared. She knew in her heart that Harry couldn't take on Draco man-to-man. Harry liked to think he could, but Hessa knew all too well what Draco was capable of. Maybe the potions would work, but they hadn't been officially tested because they hadn't had a confrontation with Draco in months. If anything, she would go with Draco to save all of their lives, but she doubted that he would let any of them off that easy.

……………………………………………………………………….

"Harry!" Remus shouted. "Death Eaters have found the base…"

"Is there a way out?" Hermione looked at Ron and he looked at her.

"They've surrounded the perimeter, Harry, Draco Malfoy is with them…be prepared."

"He know she's with us then."

"Yes…we will have to make our stand here, and if enough of us make it…and it must be you, Harry, go after Voldemort," Remus looked sullen, Tonks held his hand. "Where is Hessa?"

"Upstairs, I didn't want her in the way…"

"We'll need her to do something for us, but Harry, we'll still need her. I know it's not something you want to do…but…"

"I know, but let her be back up, I don't want Malfoy seeing her right away, we had talked that maybe she would be bait…," Harry looked down, it was her idea…Hessa's. He had argued with her for hours about it, but it did no good.

Remus sighed, "I see…bring her down."

Harry was gone and in a few minutes, Hessa followed him closely and held his hand, "you said you needed something?"

"Hessa," Remus felt odd asking this. "We need your blood…to enhance the wands."

Ron screwed up his face, "why do we need her blood on our wands?"

"They'll enhance the wands, making them very powerful. A Conk's bodily fluids can enhance any spell or wand, in this case, we need her blood."

Hessa nodded and Remus got the needle, she held out her arm and let him take what he needed, asking for each person's wand. Harry held her from behind and buried his face in her neck, he didn't want to have to do this, but she was doing it to save their lives. After Remus had finished polishing the wands with her blood, it gave them all a glossy sheen that was dry and didn't feel sticky at all, Hermione was fascinated by it, Ron was slightly grossed out and Harry was indifferent, wanting it all to be over.

"Okay, now…go back upstairs," Harry said quietly to Hessa.

"But Harry…I…"

"GO UPSTAIRS!" he yelled. Hessa startled and ran upstairs slightly in tears.

"You didn't have to yell at her!" Hermione snapped.

"She can't be around us, I won't be able to concentrate!" Harry snapped back. "I'll…I'll be too worried about Draco taking her or her getting hurt."

"Fine," Hermione huffed. They didn't have much time to argue, the other barriers were coming down and the house started to shake, everyone startled.

…………………………………………………………………………..

Hessa was laying on the bed, slightly crying when the house started to shake, she squeaked slightly and jumped to look out the window again…they were taking down the barriers, but at the same time, putting up their own so the people inside couldn't apparate…of course, both Draco and Voldemort were good with strategy. She saw Draco approach, talking to the other Death Eaters…but then he looked up and saw her, their eyes locked again and they seemed to stare at each other for a minute until darkness, Harry had put his hand over her eyes and dragged her away from the window…he heard Draco roar out in anger.

Unfortunately, the actual bond could be stronger then the potion one and Harry knew it, it was one of the reasons why he had her locked up at this point, her curiosity could easily get her into trouble, and her and Draco had already been bonded once. "Don't look at him…," Harry whispered harshly. Hessa nodded and then Harry put his hand down and she turned to look at him. "Please, I'm afraid you'll…."

"I won't go to him…"

He kissed her fiercely on the mouth and wondered if they had time to…very lustful thoughts came to mind, he didn't know why, of all the things Harry should be thinking of like survival, for instance, sex shouldn't have been one of them. Hessa was kissing his neck, one of his favorite places…and finally he gave into temptation as she opened his shirt and kissed all the way down, opening his pants and taking his member into her mouth, his grown was loud and husky and he sat down in the chair next to him, enjoying the sensation. He bent over slightly, undoing her shirt and feeling her breasts as her rhythm increased, he started panting and then, "I want more than this…"

Hessa released his member from her mouth and saw how hard and red it was. She stood up and completely undressed, mounting him, he gasped as did she when he slowly slid inside her…he loved how tight she was. His arm held her hips down tightly while he thrusted up, while his other held her tightly to him, his head dug in the back of the cushioned chair as her body jerked, Hessa's own panting being heard by him and it only made him thrust even harder…he could feel her cuming, plus she always kissed him when she was about to…she started to whimper loudly and he could feel the intensity of her orgasm because of how hard the muscles were grabbing onto his organ, causing his body to jolt and have his own. Hessa could tell it was intense for him because she could feel the muscles pumping his juices into her…and he always gritted his teeth when he was about to, he jammed himself into her which hurt slightly but it only topped off her orgasm and made it even more intense, thrusting her head back as he pushed even deeper, his hips raising from the seat of the chair and him crying out loudly. Finally they collapsed and kissed each other. Harry smiled, "well that was unexpected…"

They both started to giggle at both the intensity and they timing of the situation and from what Harry could tell by the clock on the wall, they had only been at it ten minutes. They held each other, but another loud noise and another shake of the house caused them to come out of their fantasy. "I tried to apparate out," Harry said sadly. "I wanted to at least get you out…"

"I know," Hessa seemed to curl up like a child in Harry's lap.

"If anything happens…"

"Harry…"

"IF ANYTHING HAPPENS," he gave her a warning look. "There is a way to access my money in Gringott's . I've made sure you have access to it or someone will bring it to you…if worst comes to worst, you must run as far as you can."

"Please don't talk like that…," this wasn't happening…

"I'm prepared, I've been prepared….I love you so much, Hessa. So do me this favor, that if I don't make it…you must run, find a new life, find your own people if you can…"

Hessa could only nod, finding her own people…did they even exist anymore? Where would she even begin to look?

Finally the barriers broke down and the house was completely exposed. The door was kicked in and they heard the commotion downstairs. They both got quickly dressed and ran out the door, there was a literal war going on in the house. The twins were fighting fiercely but it seemed to come to a halt when Draco came in, he looked around and then looked up, he saw Hessa and once again they locked eyes, and once again Harry pulled her away….

"Hello, POTTER! Have fun playing house with my Hessa…YOU FILTHY HALF-BREED!"

Harry gritted his teeth in anger, "she's MY Hessa now!"

"Really…what would make you think that! That fabricated bond! That falsehood of a potion!" Draco looked at his men, "KILL THEM ALL EXCEPT THE GIRL!" Hessa didn't have a choice at this point and joined the battle. She flung men down the stairs and tossed one over the railing. Any spell flung at Harry or anyone in her eyeshot was caught and flung back. Harry had never seen her like this, she was literally battling, and she fought like a champion, she was quick and keen.

Ron shot a spell at one of the Death Eaters, the blood from Hessa caused him to practically fly and crash through a wall, "cool."

It seemed for a moment that they were winning, it seemed that the enemy had come to the wrong place to fight…until Mr. Weasley was struck down. "ARTHUR!" Mrs. Weasley yelled…from there it came crashing down. From there, Death Eater after Death Eater seemed to be storming the house and then they were outnumbered. At the last moment, the crew threw all the potions against Draco and it did hurt him…but not enough. The blood Hessa had, was the blood that was given to her BEFORE he had fully changed…it meant nothing.

All Hessa could do was keep those who hadn't fallen behind her and her shield up as Draco came through his small army of fellow killers. He tutted, "did you give them the blood amulet…? I'm afraid that the blood I gave was before the potions…" She looked defiantly at him with tears in her eyes.

"Draco, please…you don't have to do this. Whatever he promised you to come back…"

"Oh, he didn't promise me a thing, my love. It was all a rouse, staged…"

"What?"

"It didn't go as planned of course, I hadn't planned on loosing my temper…but you were part of everything. To gain their trust…and then destroy them, which you did…in a way."

Hessa shook her head as if in denial, "but your father…?"

"HE SLEPT WITH YOU!….and he paid for it, as I told him he would…and as dear POTTER will…," Draco's eyes narrowed. "But I don't blame you…please never think that, my love." She looked down in distress. "Oh…and Hessa," she looked up. "Stupify…"

She was flung from the group and landed hard on her back, he did not put enough power in it to knock her out, but dazed her completely. None of the Death Eaters attacked yet and watched as their commander approached the girl, Harry was held at wand point as were the others. Draco knelt by her side and picked her up slightly, she clung onto him, knowing who he was, smelling her…he had recently mated with her…very recently. Draco narrowed his eyes at Harry and then gently laid Hessa back down, pinching the back of her neck to make her pass completely out, "you don't need to see this, my love."

The only thing she remembered hearing was, "YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Harry's voice rang and then…screams.

Hessa finally awoke, still dazed, her eyes blinked open and this foul, stale smell came to her nose…steely and pungent, she held her nose as she sat up…there was blood everywhere, bodies lay ripped to pieces and she knew Draco had done this, the only ones not were the women…Hermione and Mrs.Weasley…Tonks and Remus had died long before along with Mr. Weasley…the twins…their chests ripped open.

She started to hyperventilate, Harry…where was Harry? He was still alive, she could feel it…but nausea was swimming in her stomach, heartache…Harry. Somehow she managed to get to her feet, she had to try and find him…he was close. Finally she came to the den and saw Draco holding Harry up by his throat, choking him. She froze but a small noise came out anyway, Draco immediately whipped around and panicked slightly…he had not meant for her to see this, he had meant for this to be finished, take her to the manor and consummate the bond. Since they had bonded the first time, there was no time frame needed again….he had let too much time pass, he was enjoying torturing Harry.

Draco loosened his grip enough for Harry to yell, "HESSA, RUN!"

Hessa looked at him, she wanted to save him, but she could do nothing against Draco.

"DO AS I ASK..!"

Hessa ran, she ran out the door, there were no Death Eaters inside because they were outside and tried to stop her, but they were easily swept away.

Draco breathed heavily in anger, "you're constant interference is most TAXING!" With that, he snapped Harry's neck. Harry Potter now lay on the floor…dead.

Hessa stopped and turned around…he was gone…Harry was gone…tears started to well up, and she felt like she could die but she couldn't and instead she ran, because the figure she saw coming to the house was Voldemort, most likely to check on his enemies body.

………………………………….

"Did he suffer?" Voldemort smiled.

"To his very last breath," Draco glared .

"Very well then, go and get your Hessa."

Draco took off like a shot.
