Lots of Feelings

He'd put so many holes in King his former mate would look like a piece of Swiss cheese. Gun or knife? Knife would be better, Harry decided after a moment's contemplation. More intimate and satisfying to be the one plunging the sharp piece of metal into the fucker rather than just shooting him from a distance. Or he could jam one of the guild master's precious ball point pens into his head. That would not only work, but the fucker definitely wouldn't see it coming, that's for fucking sure. And if he wanted to go less bloody he could always strangle him with his favorite Hermes tie. Watch the life slowly leave the bastard's eyes while Harry tightened the damn thing around that squat neck of his.

Or better yet he could just beat Chester fucking King to death with his bare hands. Break his bones and make sure that King knew with his last breath that Harry had completely and totally destroyed him. Would destroy not just the man but his legacy and family line too for daring to take his mate from him. For taking Eggsy from him. For killing his heart and denying his children their father. Denying the world someone as loving, compassionate, and wonderful as Eggsy was an unforgivable crime.

"Luv…I'm not dead yet. Though you plottin King's demise is dead sexy."

Harry hardly felt the kiss Eggsy placed against his lips, he and his dragon were too focused on debating how easily King's skull would crack like an egg under his foot. He would have rage and grief on his side after all. And with the proper footwear…

In one corner of his mind Harry did hear Edward ask Colin in a low voice what he'd do if King were to kill him for some reason.

"I'd go clawed and gut him."

Hmm. Go clawed and then rip open that fat gut King was in denial about possessing. He could work with that. So long as the bastard lived long enough to suffer. Suffering to an inhuman degree was nonnegotiable.

And really he didn't have to limit himself to one method, Harry belatedly realized in a flash of violent inspiration. Combinations could be made to maximize King's suffering before Harry finally sent him to Hell and eternal damnation. Though forget the whole strangling thing. He wanted King to bleed. A lot. All over his office or study. Oooh…and he should break things in front of King before he killed him. The bastard's most prized treasures. He knew what King's dragon valued most, and it would be poetic justice since the prick had never loved anything the way he loved his money and heirlooms. He'd just have to cull the ones that would hurt the most from the safes…though not the ones with historical significance. Those he'd take with him and sell. Donate the proceeds to charity. Charities that King would hate the idea of supporting.

"Remind me to never incur his wrath." That was Percival.

"And isn't it just wonderful that Harry and Serena are getting to be such good friends." His sister murmured back with a hint of rather unholy glee in her tone.

"Shit."

"Come on, Harry. You're scaring the children. Deep breath." Eggsy sounded amused, the fond look he was giving Harry adorable enough to break through the red haze in front of Harry's eyes to a degree. "We got a baby ta think about now, remember?"

Baby. His baby. He was having a baby. His and Eggsy's baby. He could picture the little boy so clearly, looking just like Eggsy had when he was a child. And he'd seen pictures of Colin as a child so he knew just what his friend's little boy would look like too, and imagining their boys together was such an overabundance of adorableness that Harry couldn't take it.

Fuck. He was pregnant. And there went his knees a little again, though his mate had his arms wrapped around his waist in a flash to steady him.

Staring into Eggsy's eyes Harry suddenly wanted to cry, the bloodlust not standing a chance against his joy and fear. "We're going to have a child."

"Yeah. Yeah we are." Eggsy beamed back at him, his eyes a little misty as well.

The brief but loving kiss Eggsy placed on his lips was definitely felt this time.

"Now let's go congratulate Colin and Edward on their little buddle of joy and then they'll congrats us and we can concentrate on how our boys are gonna be best mates like Rox and me growing up. No depressin stuff like me or anyone else dyin, okay? That ain't gonna happen cause we ain't gonna let it. Right?"

"You're right."

Though when they left here Harry was going to look into hiring bodyguards for Eggsy. And getting his mate a bulletproof vest. And…wait. Maybe not. He could just kill King BEFORE he harmed a hair on Eggsy's head. That's what he should do. Hell, his former mate deserved to die for even contemplating knocking Harry up just so that he could get his hands on a defenseless infant he could then train to become a monster of legend. Just thinking about the what ifs had Harry's mind quite happily going back to all the ways he wanted to make King suffer before he facilitated the man's early trip to Hell.

"Harry."

There was definite love and amusement in Eggsy's eyes as he steered Harry over towards the Mortons, Colin immediately hurrying over to give Harry a big hug which he appreciated and really needed at the moment besides. They were going to have babies together! And their babies were going to be best friends and that was just…

It definitely called for some serious hugging on both their parts.

Roxy meanwhile gave Eggsy an enthusiastic hug too, beaming at her best friend as she told him that he was going to be a brilliant father and she the best honorary aunt ever. And her little brother and his son were going to be the same age!

Laughing Eggsy agreed that it was the best news and that his son was going to love his Aunt Roxy, which of course had her tearing up and pretending she wasn't while wiping at her eyes. And while she did that Percival shook Eggsy's hand and congratulated him on the news, Eggsy of course congratulating the older man on his coming baby brother in turn.

Now that Colin wasn't upset anymore it was obvious the reality of having a new baby brother over thirty years younger than he was was dawning on Percival. The poor man was giving his parents a side look that suggested he could have done without the confirmation that they were still sexually active, even if he would love his new brother as much as his other younger siblings.

Doing his best to hide his amusement at Percival's expense Harry shook Edward's hand once Colin had finally turned him loose, congratulating him on his son. A sentiment the dominant returned with a slightly dazed expression that suggested that the whole having a baby at his age was starting to sink in for him as well.

"I look forward to meeting both our children." Edward worked up a mostly convincing smile as he gave Harry's hand an extra squeeze. "And we'll all pull together on this. We consider you and Eggsy family and will behave accordingly."

Tapping down the desire to hug the man even though they both probably would have benefited from it despite the embarrassment, Harry settled for giving Edward a reassuring smile and an extra hand squeeze of his own. "Likewise."

"Oh this is…" Colin apparently didn't have words for it, though his expression said it all. He'd moved past his shock and worry and had moved on to beaming happiness. Not surprising either, since he was the optimistic amongst them.

"We'll be older mums together." Harry finished for his friend, trying to find some humor for all their sakes. "I'll be calling you for a lot of advice in the future too, I'm afraid. Possibly at all hours of the day and night at first."

Waving that away with a flick of his wrist Colin assured him that he'd be happy to help. "Though I still don't know what the rest of my children are going to say when I tell them I'm pregnant again."

"If they fuss you can just tell them it's their cross to bear for not giving you more grandchildren to spoil."

Colin laughed in delight over that while Percival and Roxy groaned good-naturedly.

Everyone feeling a little lighter as they imagined the Morton children's response to that statement, it would be quite hilarious to see, Harry switched with Eggsy to accept Roxy's hug and Percival's handshake while Eggsy got a big hug from Colin and a handshake from Edward as well. Congratulations and delight over the fact that the two babies were sure to be friends dominated the next few minutes of conversation.

Then The Keeper cleared her throat loudly while wearing a look of amusement, belatedly reminded them all that she was still in the room. And they'd completely forgotten about her. Oops.

)

Raising a hand when they all started to apologize for that fact at once, the Keeper just rose from her seat with a small smile on her face. "It's fine. I'm happy for everyone. I've seen the various threads of the future to come, and I can promise that the vast majority of them were good ones. Take precautions and be aware that you will be making enemies once word gets out, but the majority of our kind will do their best to protect both the children and their parents. The other Keepers will see to that. And King will NOT be a problem once I'm done with him on Sunday."

A distinctly predatory smile curved her lips now. "It's petty, but I'm very much looking forward to that."

"May I ask what you meant when you said that Eggsy and Harry's son is going to save our kind?"

Everyone glanced first in surprise at Roxy, having forgotten all about that prophecy, before turning their attention back to the Keeper with renewed interest.

"More will be explained on Sunday. Now I need to be going…there are far too many people in this city with far too many thoughts and emotions. Rachel is almost here as well, and I know you'll all want to share your good news with her and get her confirmation of what I've said. So I'll see you this weekend."

The woman's tone made it clear that any more questions would not be answered.

"Thank you. For being willing to help us protect our child. This is stepping outside the normal role of a Keeper."

The Keeper nodded regally in Harry's direction. "In the past we acted advisors only, fearing too much that sharing what we knew would negatively affect the future ahead. It's why you were not told why King pursued you and why you could not allow him to father a child with you. My teacher would not allow me to interfere. But I am in charge now, and I have seen the futures where your son and daughter do not grow up in the loving family you two will provide. I believe what I've done and will do will help insure the best reality for us all."

Jaws dropped as Eggsy went over and gave the Keeper a great big bear hug, Harry's mate actually lifting her off her feet in his exuberance.

Harry had never seen a shocked Keeper before, but it was certainly something to see.

After the hug the Keeper excused herself with flushed cheeks and a hint of a stammer in her goodbyes, a still beaming Eggsy getting the door for her just as Rachel arrived to look over Colin. Naturally the healer was surprised to find the Keeper there, the two women exchanging greetings before the latter left and the former stepped inside while shooting Eggsy a 'what the heck did I miss' look.

The fact that Eggsy was beaming like he'd just won the lottery wasn't helping either, since the sight of a Keeper was generally not cause for amusement. But of course Eggsy was happy to spill the beans about Harry being pregnant, Harry joining his mate in beaming like an idiot when Rachel squealed her happiness and rushed over to give him a big hug. Colin too when Harry added that Colin was in the same boat, though Harry noticed that his was longer and more heartfelt. Because of course he was the childless one of the three of them. Or had been.

A whole host of hugs and congratulations came next, followed by the huge shock when Harry explained just why The Keeper had shown up in the first place.

"A grand high dominant? But there hasn't been one in centuries! The magic is too thin!"

"That's what she said." Roxy stated with a shrug.

Frowning Rachel moved to stand in front of Harry, her eyes going pure black as she studied Harry's stomach with a healer's rapt attention before stumbling back, Percival and Colin both grabbing an arm to steady her.

"By all the Gods."

"Rach?" Eggsy wrapped an arm around Harry's waist protectively. And perhaps for comfort as he asked what was wrong.

"So powerful already. Both of them." Shaking her head Rachel's eyes returned to normal. "There's a magical barrier around you, Harry. Protecting you as you're the vessel for the child, so to speak. It's…the baby has hardly begun and already to have this much magic…."

"So as long as the sprog's in there Harry's protected too?"

"Even after the child is born to an extent. We healers don't really learn about them anymore since it's been so long since there's been one, but from what I remember even after the child leaves its mother the effect of having such a powerful entity living inside him or her changes the mother permanently. Harry's strength, magic, health, they should all improve and continue to do so. Because of the telepathic link mother and child share from conception they're usually very close and so the child instinctively manipulates its own magic to make sure their mother isn't taken from them early on."

"Telepathic link?" Harry repeated.

"Yes. I'm not sure, I'll have to do a ton of research when I get home, but within a few weeks of conception you should be able to talk to the child mind to mind."

Harry couldn't be bothered to care that his jaw was possibly on the ground. The bond between a mother and child was supposed to be powerful, yes, but he'd never heard of a mother having a telepathic bond with their child, much less their unborn one.

In the usual way of things a dragon mother carried their child within him or her for around four months, than shifted to dragon form to lay the dragon's egg containing their offspring. Then as dragons the parents cared for said egg for between two to five days depending on the strength and magical abilities of the child. The child was always born as a dragon, about the size of a Pomeranian. The baby dragon remained in that form for about three weeks before shifting into a human form that resembled a six month old.

"Colin said the grand highs, they gots telepathy. So he'll be able ta talk ta Harry, and Harry will be able ta talk ta him cause the sprog's so powerful?"

"Yes." Rachel made a low sound of frustration as she swiped a hand through her hair. "I am going to have to do so much research. Though at least I'll never have him as a patient. Grand high dominants never get sick. Or hurt."

"Will you send me all the information you find? Or loan Eggsy and I the books and scrolls, I should say." She wasn't the only one who was going to have to do a lot of research in the coming months.

"Of course. Though it will take me a while to find the information, much less sort out the fact from the fiction. And given that we don't have much time I better get Merlin on it too. With your permission of course, since no one else can know until after The Keeper's announcement."

Dear God he only had months to prepare to parent a child. The strongest dragon to be born on Earth in centuries. And the little one currently growing in his stomach would have a little sister down the road which meant two of them to handle and really, couldn't he have started out with a normal child first? I mean seriously, it wasn't like the parenting books he'd soon be buying covered what to do when your child used their magical abilities to manipulate another child into giving them something or your children were fighting telepathically in their heads where he couldn't hear them. And that was on top of keeping them safe from those in the dragon community who would want to take them and raise them themselves. Or just some arsehole or group who would see his 'human' children as targets for ransom due to their wealthy fathers.

And heaven help the bastards who tried that because he would end them.

His mind slipping down a violent path again, which probably wasn't good since weren't you supposed to think happy thoughts while pregnant, but then Harry's stomach growled, reminding him that they hadn't had lunch yet on top of the fact that they would need to be getting back to the office soon, pregnant or not.

"Shit." Eggsy exclaimed beside him. "We need food stat!"
