A few days later Luna, Bellatrix and Fleur were lounging in the garden with Hermione, Andromeda and Narcissa while Fabian and Draco flew around in the garden under the supervision of Nymphadora.
Fleur and the three Black sisters were soaking up the sun in their bathing suits, while Luna and Hermione quietly read a book under the parasol they had set up.
Eliza had taken Apoline, Juliette and Gabrielle shopping for furniture and decorations while Jean-Paul oversaw the construction of their new home, which was coming along quickly thanks to the magic involved.
"Mon Dieux 'ow I 'ave missed sunbathing. Sunny days are really 'ard to come by in England." Fleur said contently.
Bellatrix smiled at her. "Unfortunately yes, otherwise we would be a lot less pale, which I wouldn't mind at all."
Fleur smiled and turned to her side. "But you're a beautiful pale, my love, your skin is almost glowing."
Bellatrix peaked at the blonde Veela over her shades before glancing at her stomach, which thankfully was not burned yet. "Oh please. You're radiant in this light. If I was just a shade paler like I am in winter, I could be used as a beacon."
Fleur grinned and laid down next to her. "I disagree with that, my love. I have seen a lot of pale people while we were at 'ogwarts and you are definitely in a league of your own."
Bellatrix smiled and pulled the blonde into a deep kiss. "Ehem, you two are not alone and this is hardly appropriate in present company." Andromeda said after clearing her throat.
Bellatrix smiled at her sister. "Fine, but I hope you know that because of this Bond we share is hard to ignore the urges."
"I know Bella, but some modicum of decorum is still expected from you. You are still a woman of the House of Black and we still expect you to behave like one." Narcissa said with a teasing smile.
Bellatrix only smiled and for good measure gave Fleur a deep kiss, the two just leaning a bit too much backwards, which made the legs beneath the chair collapse, making them tumble off it.
They were stunned for just a moment before they burst out laughing, and next to them Andromeda and Narcissa had trouble containing their giggles.
Luna and Hermione had heard the thump and looked up to see the two women entangled with each other and the chair. "Are you two okay?" Luna asked with a giggle.
The two smiled as they sat up. "Yes we are love, nothing but our pride got hurt."
Luna smiled at them. "That's good, but could you keep it down. Hermione and I are trying to read." She said teasingly.
"We'll try and keep any future falls to a minimum, love. We wouldn't want to disturb you in your studies." Fleur said with a flirty wink.
Luna smiled and flashed her a wink back before returning to her book for just a moment when a vision hit her. She saw Fabian plummeting from the sky with his broom in pieces to the backdrop of the house, with Draco flying down to catch him.
She gasped loudly and shot out of her chair to where she could see Fabian and Draco flying around.
Fleur and Bellatrix shared a look and shot off after their lover, both of them a bit unsure and worried about what could be wrong with her.
Luna arrived just in time to see her lover look back for just a second, only to slam into a tree a second later, shattering his broom and sending him plummeting to the ground.
Draco thanks to his quick reflexes banked around in an instant and dove towards his brother in order to catch him.
To this sight Fleur, Luna and Bellatrix came bursting into the clearing, the three women running towards the two boys.
Draco had just carefully laid Fabian down on the soft grass and was checking for any injuries.
Fleur got to their mate first and carefully cradled him in her lap. "Oh mon amour, please say somezing. We can't lose you already."
Fabian smiled faintly at her as he looked at his lovers with one eye, the other one swollen shut. "I'm still alive, my love. Battered but not broken."
The blonde Veela smiled at him. "You'll be fine my love. We will find a way to 'eal you."
He only smiled and motioned her closer before giving her a sweet kiss.
Fleur gasped softly as she was slowly enveloped in a golden light and felt exactly where her lover was hurt. Knowing immediately that this was her gift revealing itself, she focused on healing his injuries. She felt how his broken bones knitted themselves back together and saw how the bruising around his eye lightened.
When the light faded a few minutes later, Fabian sat up, still with some trouble but looking better than he had. "Thank you love, I feel much better."
Fleur smiled and kissed him softly. "I wasn't able to 'eal everything yet, my love, and it 'as taken a lot out of me."
He smiled and cradled her close as much as he could. "Are you okay love, we came as soon as I got the vision." Luna asked softly.
"I'll be fine in a few days, my love. Fleur healed the worst of it." He said lovingly.
Luna smiled and got down on her knees next to him, taking one of his hands in her own, while Bellatrix did the same on the other side.
"What happened Draco?" Bellatrix asked softly.
"I honestly don't know, Aunt Bella. We were practicing some dodge moves and for some reason his attention was diverted for just a second, that's when he flew into the tree." Draco said equally soft.
Bellatrix smiled and nodded at him. "Well love, what had you so distracted?" She asked softly.
"I thought I saw a brief flash of a spell being cast and I foolishly looked back to see what it was. I forgot I was already so close to the trees." Fabian said with a soft smile.
Bellatrix, Luna and Fleur smiled and carefully helped him up. "Let's get you back to the house love. You always heal better after a good meal and a bit of rest." Bellatrix said with a loving smile.
He only nodded and turned to Draco. "Don't beat yourself up over this Draco, you were not at fault here. You saved me from worse damage, so thank you."
The blonde smiled at him. "No thanks are necessary Fabe. You are my little brother and I promised to always protect you. Now go rest with your mates, I'll tell our mothers what happened."
Fabian nodded and made his way back towards the mansion, mostly being supported by his lovers.
The moment the four got to the bedroom and the girls had Fabian on the bed and out of his clothes, they sat down around him and kissed him softly. "We're glad you're mostly okay love. You really scared us today."
"I really didn't mean to, my loves. I really thought I saw a stunner or something similar being cast. It was a red flash that made me look back and overlook the tree." He said softly.
The three girls smiled and kissed him as they undressed and cuddled up to him. "At least one good thing came out of this. My gift revealed itself when you kissed me."
He smiled at that. "And I am thankful for that, my love, otherwise I would still be healing by the time we went back to school, and that might've been a bit more difficult to explain."
Fleur smiled at that. "I might 'ave an idea on 'ow to 'eal our mate completely, will you 'elp me?" She asked Luna and Bellatrix.
They nodded and smiled at her. "You just tell us what you need us to do, and we will gladly do it." Luna said dreamily.
The blonde smiled and kissed them both softly. "I need you two to lay your 'ands on my back and focus your energy on me. Perhaps it will give me enough power to 'eal 'im."
The girls nodded and placed their hands on Fleur's back. Fleur then focused on healing their lover again, the golden light now enveloping all four of them as Fleur felt how every injury her lovers had ever suffered were healed.
It was too much at once and when she pulled her hands from Fabian's body, she fell to the mattress, being caught by Luna and Bellatrix, who were equally exhausted from sending so much energy to her.
Fabian meanwhile had just reopened his eyes and saw his lovers asleep against each other, making a very cute sight, but it also worried him a little. If their gifts would drain them so much every time, they would have to start looking into some of the potions in the Chronicles sooner rather then later.
Figuring the best thing he could do for his lovers at this moment was to get close to them and share his energy with them again.
The three women moaned contently and in their sleep cuddled into him as much as they could.
…
When Fleur, Bellatrix and Luna woke up a few hours later, the first thing they saw was how their lover was intensely reading something in their Chronicles, while he was taking notes vigorously, and by the looks of it, he had been at it for a while, judging by the pile of notes already beside him.
"Good afternoon love, what has your feathers so ruffled that you need to feel the need to study our Chronicles so intensely?" Luna asked softly.
He smiled and kissed them all. "I think you mean good evening, my loves. You girls slept for most of the day, which I completely understand. As for the piles of notes, I have found specific potions for all four of us that will help us both channel and control our gifts as well as make sure they don't drain us as much when we use them, which is why I thought I could come in handy if we start brewing them as soon as possible."
The girls gave him a sleepy smile before sitting up. "It certainly does feel like we slept all day, and I have to say that your ability to study at any time still amazes me." Bellatrix said with a smile.
Fleur smiled and nodded at that. "Indeed, but we'll take a look at those potions tomorrow, but we certainly do appreciate you doing most of the preparation work for us."
He smiled at her. "I might not be the Potions prodigy Draco is, but I am very good at the theoretical part of Potions. Doing this kind of prep comes natural to me."
Fleur smiled and kissed him softly as her stomach growled, making them all giggle a little. "Hungry love?" Luna asked softly.
"A little bit, yes." She said with a slight blush.
He smiled and kissed her as he floated a tray with four plates to the bed, kept warm under a warming charm.
"Mom was so kind to drop this off half an hour ago. She also asked not to strain ourselves too much tonight, I said we would try." He said softly.
The girls smiled at that. "I am sure we can keep to our word on that. As much as we crave each other, we're all exhausted after today."
Fabian smiled and kissed them as he handed each of them a plate, the four of them proceeding to eat in silence.
After dinner they made their way to the bathroom, so they could have a relaxing bath together, and with a little bit of help from Bellatrix the tub was enlarged to accommodate all of them comfortably, and to add a little bit of flair to it, she conjured some jets to massage them as well.
Fleur ended up in Fabian's arms and Luna ended up in Bella's, the four of them sighing contently as they relaxed in the warm water.
"This was exactly what I need after today. Few things are more relaxing then a nice 'ot bath after such a strenuous day." Fleur said with a soft moan as Fabian massaged her shoulders. "That feels magnifique, mon amour. Why 'aven't you given me a massage before this?"
He smiled and kissed her neck. "I did give you a massage after the Second and Third Task, cherí. You were just asleep once your head hit the pillow."
The blonde smiled at him and cuddled into him. "I thought that was a dream, but I would love another one sometime."
"When we're all a bit more awake I would love to give you all a nice massage. According to Bella I am quite good at those." He said with a wink to the raven haired witch, who blushed a little at that.
"Oh la la, do tell Bella. It seems our darling mate 'as not told me everything." Fleur said with a mischievous smile.
Bellatrix smiled at her lover. "It was a few years ago when I had the brilliant idea to join him for a morning workout. It left me so sore that he offered a massage that night, and he really does have magical hands."
Fleur smiled at that. "And 'ere I was expecting a saucy story from you. Did you two do nothing before we got together?"
Bellatrix and Fabian blushed a little. "There was one night when Fabian was about six years old when he spent a night with me because someone thought it was a good idea to flood his room."
His blush darkened at that. "I apologized for that a million times already." He muttered softly.
Bellatrix smiled at him. "I know, but it is a part of this story. Because he couldn't share a room with Draco at the time, he slept with me, and since he moved around a lot back then, he managed to get between my breasts and in his sleep place soft kisses on them, which left me quite frustrated the next day."
Fleur smiled at that. "I can just imagine that. Our darling mate seemingly 'as a preference for breasts."
"I've known that for years, we have cuddled a lot over the years and he always rested his head on my breasts once they started growing." Luna said with a dreamy smile.
"It's not my fault that I have grown up with well endowed women." He said as his blush darkened even more.
Luna smiled and crawled over to him, kissing him softly. "You don't have to be embarrassed, love. It's only healthy to admit your preferences, and besides, it's not like we haven't done a few naughty things together when we were younger."
He smiled at her. "Admitting my preferences has always been really easy with you by my side, Lulu. You have always made it really easy for me to accept every part of myself."
The petite blonde smiled and gave him a last kiss before crawling back in Bella's lap, the four lovers letting their aches and pains drain away in the warm water.
…
The following morning Bellatrix woke up alone with Fabian, her head on his chest and her legs intertwined with his own. She smiled at the innocence she still saw in his features, and as she gently ran a hand through his hair, she heard his voice in his mind. 'How could I ever be so lucky.'
She blinked a few times and smiled. It seemed that her own gift had finally revealed itself, which she had been a bit worried about when her lover's gifts revealed themselves almost violently.
'I wonder if she's awake yet, and if she can feel what she does to me.' She heard him say into her mind.
"I am awake and can feel what I do to you, my love. Good morning." She said huskily.
His eyes shot open and he blushed. "You heard that?" He asked softly.
"I did, as I heard your thought of how you could be so lucky. I think it is the other way around, at least for me and Luna." She said softly.
He smiled and kissed her softly. "Let's leave that one in the middle, but it seems that your gift has also made an appearance now, can you hear anyone else at the moment?"
She shook her head and smiled. "Not yet, I probably will when we get out of this room. I just hope I can cope with that. We should really start looking into these potions soon."
He nodded as his eyes fell to a note on the pillow next to him. "It seems our lovers are ahead of us in that department. They're in Mom's Potions lab to get started on them. They also ask that we take some time together as well."
Bellatrix quickly poured over the note and smiled. "Well then I think for once we should do as we are asked. It would be a shame if we were to disappoint our lovers."
He smiled at her. "I happen to agree with you there, my love, so with that in mind, what are you in the mood for today?"
She smirked at him. "Well, the first time we did it I was on top, but I would love to feel you slam into me from behind. You've already molded my pussy to your cock, and I want to feel every inch of it."
He smiled and kissed her deeply. "We can do that, but I hope you are okay with a bit of pleasure beforehand. I really want to taste you again."
Bellatrix smiled and flipped them over, spreading her legs. "By all means, my love. I do believe we skipped that part during our first time, and I do believe I taught you better than that."
He smiled and kissed her softly. "Indeed you did, you and Dora both, so allow me to rectify that mistake."
Bellatrix smiled at him and moaned as he started kissing his way down her body, paying very special attention to her nipples. "The girls were right, you really have a preference for breasts."
He smiled at her. "I will readily admit that, my love."
Bellatrix smiled as he kissed his way further down her body, and she couldn't help but moan again as he nuzzled his nose in her well trimmed pubic hair. "I will never understand a man's fascination with pubic hair." She said with a light blush
"I just think it makes you even more beautiful, my love, especially if it is as well groomed as you girls have done." He said before flashing her a wink and started eating her out.
She moaned loudly and tangled a hand in his hair to keep her lover exactly where he was, and it was taking every bit of her control not to close her legs around his head.
Fabian noticed the slight movement in her legs and wrapped his arms around her thighs, spreading her open even further so he could eat her out even deeper.
"Fabian, please, I don't want to cum yet." She said with a loud moan.
He pulled back and smiled up at her before kissing her deeply, making her moan again. "Are you ready love?"
She only nodded before getting on her hands and knees. "I'm more than ready love, ravage me."
He placed a soft kiss against her neck before slipping his cock inside of her, not stopping until he was fully sheathed inside of her. "You're so tight my love. It like every time we make love is the first time."
She smiled and started thrusting her hips back into his. "There is only one first time left for us love, but I would like to wait a bit longer before we do that. I will need some preparation for that."
He smiled at that. "We can work to that, my love. We have a lot of time where we can explore every single bit of our intimate relationship, and of each other's bodies."
She smiled back at him. "Let's start right now then. You can be a bit rougher if you want. I love being spanked, because I am a very bad girl." She said with a coy smile.
He grinned and spanked her loudly. "Indeed you are, and bad girls get do get punished."
Bellatrix moaned loudly and pressed herself back again, looking at him with a coy grin.
He spanked her again as he increased his pace. "I'm going to cum soon, my love, and I hope you won't mind if I fill you to the brim."
"I'm close too love, and we both know you can't get me pregnant just yet, so fill me up all you want. I would love to feel you explode inside of me." She said with a husky tone in her voice.
He grinned and kissed the nape of her neck. 'Then I will do exactly that, my love' He thought, hoping she would hear.
She smiled brightly and screamed out his name as she came, at the same time as he slammed himself up to the hilt inside of her while painting her insides white with his cum.
As they rode out their highs, Bellatrix and Fabian cuddled back up to each other. "You were amazing love. A woman could get used to being fucked like that. I've certainly never screamed in orgasm for anyone."
He smiled and kissed her softly. "It was most certainly my pleasure to bring you such pleasure, my love."
She smiled and rested her head on his shoulder as the door opened to reveal Narcissa, who blushed brightly. "I came to check if you two were still alive in here, Bella's scream woke the entire house."
Bellatrix pulled the covers over them and smiled at her sister. "Well, my darling nephew is amazing at making all of us scream, and today was my turn. We've really raised a stud." She said with a wink to her lover.
Narcissa quirked an eyebrow as she regained her composure a little. "You make it sound like we've groomed him for this Bella. I hope that is not the case."
"Of course not Cissa, but I for one cannot argue with the results of the lessons you insisted on." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
Narcissa smiled as she took a seat on the edge of the bed. "We knew the Coven had a high probability of returning around this time, and given what we knew of it, we knew it was a probability that you both were a part of it."
Bellatrix smiled at that. "I remember those stories so well, but never thought I could ever be a part of it, but now that I am, I wouldn't change a thing. I have always loved Fabian, you know this better than almost anyone, and to have him as close as we are now is absolute heaven."
Narcissa smiled at her. "I don't envy you Bella. To have both such power and true love must be an amazing experience."
Bellatrix only smiled at her. "Not that we don't enjoy this talk, mother, but was there something you needed?" Fabian asked softly.
Narcissa smiled at her. "Fleur and Luna asked me to see if you two were awake already, I've been waiting outside for a while, but we do have to go shopping for school supplies with Draco and Gabrielle, since Jean-Paul and Apoline are still working on their home and they asked us to take her to Diagon Alley, so we are on a bit of a timetable."
He smiled and nodded. "We'll get dressed in a second and then join our mates in the lab."
Narcissa smiled at them and nodded. 'I do hope they don't get distracted while they do, it seemed important what Fleur had discovered.' Bellatrix heard inside her sister's mind.
She smiled at Narcissa. "We won't get distracted Cissa, we just want to save you the embarrassment of seeing your son in his morning glory."
Narcissa looked a bit shocked at that. "How did you know what I was thinking?"
"Because this morning my Telepathic powers manifested themselves, I can hear most thoughts in this room." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
"That's amazing Bella, but I do hope you won't abuse this power." Narcissa said with a smile.
Bellatrix smiled at her. "At one time I would've, but I would like to think that I have matured since my teens, and I myself hope that I won't be overwhelmed with more people involved."
Narcissa only smiled at that. "I am sure the four of you will find something before it becomes a problem, but I'll leave you two to get dressed in peace, but please the next time you two feel the need to express your lust, could you please remember Silencing Charms?"
"We will Mum. We were merely a bit caught up this morning." Fabian said with a smile.
Again Narcissa smiled at them before she took her leave, leaving the two lovers alone again to get dressed.
…
When they stepped into the Potions lab a little while later, they were greeted by the seemingly sweet smells of the potions that their lovers were brewing. "Good morning, my loves." Fabian said as he kissed both Fleur and Luna on the cheek.
The two blondes smiled at their lovers, both of them looking a bit disheveled from their work. "Good morning, lovebirds, we heard you had fun this morning, given the fact that Bella was heard by the entire house." Fleur said with a flirty wink.
Bellatrix smiled and kissed her lover. "You know as well as I do that our mate is very well versed in pleasuring a woman, and since we kind of skipped the foreplay the first time we made love, I thought it was high time to experience the lessons I taught him first hand."
Fleur smiled at them. "We're glad you two had fun this morning. You deserved some private time and we were more than happy to give it to you."
They two smiled at that. "And we are very thankful for that, my loves, and we have even more good news. My powers manifested themselves as well. We are now truly complete."
Fleur and Luna smiled brightly at them. "That's amazing love, how did it happen?"
"Similar to how yours manifested themselves, my loves, in a moment of intimacy, but fortunately for now the thoughts I am able to hear are confined to the room I am in." Bellatrix said with a loving smile.
"Then it is a good thing we have found the potion recipes that will help us both improve and control our gifts when we did. They only need to simmer for another hour or so, and we have made sure to make a plentiful batch that will at least last us to the Christmas Holidays, since we only need to take one a month." Fleur said with a smile.
"Those sound like some pretty strong potions. Are they safe?" Fabian asked softly.
Fleur and Luna both smiled at that. "Of course they are love, they are merely tailored to each of us, that's why they will work for so long." Fleur said with a sweet smile.
"And, might I add that our ancestors have put a lot of work into making sure that they will actually taste good as well, even though Fabian has the most adorable potion faces." Luna said with a dreamy smile.
Fabian stuck his tongue out at her. "My potion faces, if they exist at all, are not adorable, they are perfectly validated for the mostly vile taste."
The girls smiled at him. "You do know you are contradicting yourself there, right love? But I have to agree with Luna. You 'ave the most adorable potion face, I remember that clearly from when Madame Pomfrey gave you that potion after I rescued you from the lake."
"My original statement stands. It was perfectly validated because of the taste." He muttered softly.
They smiled and kissed him softly. "We promise that this one will be infinitely better, my love, and I think one potion a month is worth keeping our sanity, and learn to control and grow our gifts at the same time." Luna said with a sweet smile.
He smiled and kissed her softly. "Indeed it is my love. Nothing is more important at the moment then figuring out what this Coven Bond will bring us, and exploring the true depth of our feelings and powers."
"We couldn't agree more love, and that's why we also need to start studying the spells in the Chronicles. I have a feeling they will help us a lot in the coming months and years." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
They all nodded at that. "We agree love, but there is a thing that bugs me a little, if I am very honest. Word is inevitably going to get out once we get to school of that all four of us are together in one form or another, and there will be questions. Will we repeat ourselves time and time again, or do we let people draw their own conclusions and see what happens?" Fabian asked softly.
"We'll play it by ear mon amour. People were okay with us being together last year, they'll just 'ave to get used to seeing the four of us together on weekends. Let people think what they will, the only people that matter 'ere are us and our family." Fleur said with a soft smile.
He smiled and placed a soft kiss on her cheek. "I know, but people will talk regardless, and I would hate for that to interfere with your apprenticeship with Snape."
Fleur smiled and kissed him. "Love, you seem to forget that all students with the exception of you, Draco, Luna and 'ermione are afraid of 'im. I really think no one would want to risk angering 'im in class, and outside of class it doesn't matter what people say. We know what we are to each other and that is all that matters."
"You're of course right my love. I just can't help but worry about everything at the moment." He said with a soft smile.
The three girls smiled and led him to the couch, where they cuddled up to him. "You're not alone anymore, my love, nor have you ever been." Luna said with a smile.
"I know, my loves, I have been extremely privileged with close friends, a loving family and even more loving mates, but none the less I still feel like it all falls on me sometimes, and no matter how much I try to change that part, it is so difficult to accept the help everyone is offering." He said softly.
They smiled and kissed him softly. "We know it is, and we can see that you are doing better, and we will be by your side from now on, and we will make sure that you keep improving that skill."
He smiled and cuddled into Bellatrix as Luna and Fleur went to check on their potions, the two blondes joining them when they were satisfied with the results.
