Chapter 21

"Let's go down the stairs I want to see the kids anyway," said Severus as he rubbed circles around Harry's back as they lay next to each other.

"Mm… Don't think I want to," said Harry too relaxed and sated to move.

"We have not seen them all day," said Severus, kissing Harry's shoulder.

"Fine, but you better make up for it," said Harry arching up to Severus. He loved this and he didn't think he could live without it. Severus made him feel better than any woman could. Even his dead fiancé, but he would not regret her, he had five amazing children from her. He could never regret her.

"Oh don't worry, I will," said Severus seductively, sucking on Harry's ear before licking the sensitive bit of skin behind his ear. Leaving Harry shuddering, he smiled got up and got dressed. Harry moaned but got up anyway, saying to himself tonight better be good.

"Let's go then," said Harry smiling slightly.

"Flipper," called Harry when he didn't see his children.

"Yes master?" the house elf asked popping into the room.

"Where are the children?" Harry asked.

"Outside in the garden," said both Severus and the house elf at the same time.

"Flipper is it still warm out there?" asked Harry.

"It will remain warm for at least three hours, Master Harry. They are sitting eating their dinner outside right now, Master Harry" said Flipper.

"Well make us a dinner as well, we will join the children outside, for a few hours, as soon as the sun starts going down have a bath drawn for them," said Harry nicely to Flipper.

"Yes Master, Flipper is doing that," said Flipper, bowing the house elf left.

"Come on then," said Severus, as he dragged Harry out into the garden.

"SEV'RUS!" said Lily smiling brightly up at him.

She got up on her legs and ran to him. Severus opened his arms up, and took an arm full of a child running into them. He lifted her up effortlessly and smiled at her, she was running now. It was the first time he had seen her running; he had heard she was running, but had not seen her running. Her twin brother soon joined her, only he just clutched Severus' leg.

"Hey Lily, I hear you're driving daddy crazy," said Severus smirking,

"Yep, I run really fast now," said Lily smiling.

"So I hear, now why don't you go and eat your dinner, then I will race you," said Severus happy.

"Yeah!!" said Lily squiggling down, and running back to her dinner, falling but getting back up she sat down.

"And you, too," said Severus to Lily's twin brother.

"Okay," he said as he went back to his dinner.

"It's unbelievable how much you and them have changed my life," said Severus as he and Harry sat down. Severus lay with his head in Harry's lap, quite getting addicted to the feeling of a hand running through his hair.

"Yes, Damien and Damon forced me to grow up fast. With them I was scared in case I dropped them, scared they would be taken from me, scared they went hungry. It was an amazing experience watching a child grow. I love them more than I thought I could love anyone, back then, since then I've realized there are different kinds of love. A sisters love, a friends love, a father son love, there are so many kinds of loves and I've had the pleasure of feeling and experiencing most of them."

"Yes, it took me a long time to realize that too," said Severus.

"Yes I didn't know love at all until I was eleven," said Harry. "Even then it was all faked or idolized love."

"Mm… So are we telling the little ones or not?" asked Severus.

"I don't think it's a good idea," said Harry.

"But Damon and Damien will want to work on Potions, I can't work with Potions unless I want to harm the baby," said Severus, potion fumes were bad for children this he knew.

"Potions are dangerous?" asked Harry horrified.

"Yes for a fetus it could cause complications, that's for a woman's pregnancy never mind a male one," said Severus.

"You're not going back to Hogwarts, you can't, I'm not letting you anywhere near potions," said Harry.

"Harry you can't," said Severus, he needed to go back to Hogwarts.

"No Sev, I don't want either of you hurt, please just stay here. I promise you during this time we can search for a way to kill the mad man, then I will go and kill him. I promise now please, please just stay," said Harry getting worried. He wanted no harm to come to the one he loved and if Severus went Harry knew that would happen.

"Fine, but if I stay the children will need to be told," said Severus. They would wonder why his stomach was swelling up, or why he could not do potions. The last thing he wanted to do was lie to the children he had come to love.

"That's fine, after bath then?" asked Harry. "Then we can celebrate you staying all the time," said Harry, a seductive purr to his voice.

"Yes, defiantly," said Severus, he had changed so much. No, he had not changed; he was just being his true self. He was being who he really was, not the mask or spy he usually was.

"Good," said Harry smiling, enjoying the feel of the sun beating down on him.

"Who waters the potion ingredients?" asked Severus getting up, and going over to inspect them.

"I do," said Harry. He never let anyone near them for fear of upsetting Severus. He had wards around them to stop the children being able to go anywhere near them without anyone's permission, so if Severus wanted to show them, he would be able to.

"How often?" asked Severus, feeling the soil.

"Once a day, they have not been done today though," said Harry,

"How much?" asked Severus, he didn't want the potion ingredients to die out because they drowned.

"Just spell it with my wand, that's all," said Harry, spelling water to come out of his wand, he expanded it and the water went on each potion ingredient in the soil.

"Good, just like my father used to," said Severus smiling, he had never really talked about his father. In a way he had blamed them for leaving him with his Uncle, now he didn't.

"I see," said Harry smiling he liked learning more about Severus' family.

"Daddy we are finished I wanna play with Sev'rus," said Lily showing her empty plate.

"Well done you two, go and play then," said Harry smiling at his youngest set of twins. He could see there were red streaks coming into their hair; it was not happening to his other children, shaking his head he would ask Severus.

"Sev'rus can we go play run?" asked Lily smiling up at Severus.

"Sure come on then, all the way to the front of the garden," said Severus taking both twin's hands in his own.

"Ready… steady… go!" yelled Severus, running, keeping a hold of the twin's hands. Every time they fell he would pull them up in a jump, causing them to shriek and do it all the more. Eventually they managed to get the end of the garden. They all lay there unaware of the camera taking pictures of them; the house elf had taken pictures of them.

They sat and had fun for hours, before the sun started going down and it started getting cold. Samara the youngest was already asleep and in her bed, the house elf must have taken her away already. Which was a good thing, it was getting cold, too cold for a baby and hopefully Flipper had given her a bath.

Bathing them, giving them their supper, was a lot of work, it took two hours altogether to get them all settled. It was better than usual it usually took Harry nearly four hours to get them all done too. He never asked the house elves to do all the work. He didn't like working them all the time, but when he needed it he would ask them too. Like today, Severus had been important, he had forgotten the time and ended up staying up all night and then he had slept most of the morning away. And spent the afternoon with Severus, who had given him amazing news.

"Daddy has something he wants to tell you," said Harry, smiling.

"What is it Daddy?" asked Damon.

"Well in a years time you're going to have a brother or sister," said Harry.

"But how?" asked Damon confused.

"In the magical world Damon, men can get pregnant, me and Severus love each other and Severus is carrying a little boy or girl inside him right now, just like your mummy did with your little brother and sisters," said Harry,

He was horrified when Damon had tears in his eyes; he frowned and looked at Severus for support. He didn't know what was wrong with them, Severus sighed and got up, wondering what was wrong.

"Damon, what's wrong? Don't you want another brother or sister?" asked Severus.

"Not wiv you!" said Damon. Severus paled completely. Damon didn't want him a part of the family, he had thought Damon had loved him, obviously not.

"Well I'm sorry you feel that way," said Severus as he got up and walked away from the child, who obviously didn't want anything to do with him.

"When you have the baby you won't want us! You won't care! We luv you and want you to be a daddy but you won't want us," said Damon.

"Oh Damon, that's not true. I will always love you the same as any child I have, you are like my child right now," said Severus, he didn't think he had felt more relieved right now. He had thought Damon had not wanted him in the family; he was just scared that the little one would be loved more.

"You promise?" asked Damon his eyes wide looking right into onyx ones.

"I promise, we will still make potions and I will still read to you at night," said Severus, bringing the young boy to himself and cuddled him for all he was worth.

"Night Sev'rus, night baby," said Damon poking Severus' belly, Harry nodded.

"Goodnight Damon, goodnight Damien," said Severus, "Now let's get the others to their bed."

The others were tucked in and settled secure for the night; Severus was dying to ask why Damon had poked his belly.

"Why did Damon poke my belly?" asked Severus.

"Because when you get bigger, he will poke it more often and it will cause his brother or sister to kick. When the twins were still in the womb Damon did that, they would only kick for their big brother, no matter how many times I tried they would not kick for me," said Harry smiling brightly.

"I see, that's unexpected," said Severus, smiling, Damon had truly accepted him if he was doing that already.

"Yes, now you have a lot to make up for," said Harry.

"Ah yes, lets go then," said Severus kissing Harry hard on his lips. He loved dominating Harry, loved the feeling of Harry submitting to him. He also loved submitting to Harry, but tonight he was going to make Harry beg.

They were in their room before they knew it. They were dying for it so Severus quickly spelled their clothes off before hastily using a lubrication spell and sunk into Harry. Harry didn't mind, he just arched up and wrapped his legs around Severus. They were both desperate, they had been wanting it since they had gone down the stairs.

"Hard and fast, Sev," said Harry his eyes rolling in the back of his head.

"Are you sure about that?" asked Severus teasing Harry.

"Fuck me Sev, or you are sleeping on the couch for a month, make me come so hard that I am blown away," said Harry, he was determined to get what he wanted tonight.

"Ok, ok" said Severus deciding to give Harry what he wanted, after all he would really hate to find out if he would end up on the couch or not.

Severus started thrusting in and out, going harder and faster with each minute that went by. All the while holding his orgasm in. Harry was totally debauched, muttering his name and hissing in parseltongue, unaware that he was doing so. It was making Severus loose it, sweating he thrust in once more, hitting Harry's sweet spot causing a fountain of seed to come from Harry. Harry's opening clenched around Severus, causing the man to loose it completely, thrusting in twice more, he came, causing Harry another unexpected orgasm.

Breathing heavily, they both cleaned up, Severus more aware than Harry snuggled them in together. Harry's opening, Severus realized, was still opening and closing, Harry was moving towards him, looking for something. He sighed when he found it and he thrust it into himself, sighing softly he fell asleep, wrapped around Severus, whose member was snug in Harry's hot, still pulsing channel.

Severus groaned, however once the channel had stopped pulsing he cuddled in, feeling once again sated, he was accepted by the children, who were happy to have another brother or sister. He was having the child he had always wanted and had someone in his life, someone he had come to love. He once again found himself thankful that he had left the dark side.

Otherwise he would not have found himself with the love of his life.

"Parkinson, step forward," hissed Voldemort.

"Yes, my lord?" asked a woman's voice.

"Where is the spy? He didn't answer my call, I will kill him, the traitor he is," hissed Voldemort.

"He is at Hogwarts, my lord, I know the floo address to his manor where he keeps going. We could kill him and no one will have any idea," she said eagerly.

"Hm… you will do Parkinson, but not right now. We have more important matters than a traitor, like finding that bloody stupid idiotic boy who lived," snapped Voldemort angrily. "You will not stop until you find him and don't you dare kill him or his brats. I want them to die by my hand before I kill him, he will die knowing he had failed his children. I will kill the bloody idiot and you will find him!!" shouted Voldemort,

"Parkinson, keep a watch on the traitor, don't kill him I want him to die by my hands," said Voldemort, he didn't seem to want his followers to kill anyone these days.

"Yes, my lord" said Parkinson bowing low.

"Get out of my sight the lot of you," snapped Voldemort, wanting them gone.
