Ara POV
I put some black jeans with a white t-shirt and black trainers. I put my hair up in a ponytail and light make up. I used the necklace with diamonds that Portia gave me and I took my blue bag with me. My family was waiting for me in the sitting room and told me that Severus had to go to meet Albus before the meeting so we would have to find another way to show I had a suitor. Abraxas looked at me and shook his head.
"Jeans and trainers?" He asked arching his eyebrow.
"Only for the casual meetings. I promise that I will only use the formal robes for the important meeting or the family reunions," I said, and he nodded.
"Come, aunty. I will go with you," Draco said offering me his hand, and I laughed.
We flooed to the headquarters, and the rest of the family followed us. Abraxas and Portia sat with Albus and Minerva. Lucius and Cissy went to talk with Severus and I sat with Draco talking about next year. I felt somebody sitting on the chair near me and I heard a low voice talking into my ear
"Nice to see you, pet," Sirius said and I shuddered.
"Hi, Sirius," I said and I heard a low growl. When I looked around Severus was glaring at him. "It's nice to see you too. I was talking with Draco about next year and I remembered that I need to say something to Remus"
I stood up and I went near Remus who was smirking at me. He hugged me softly and shook his head.
"Nice to see you," Remus asked, "It's everything ok with your family?"
"Yes, I feel accepted. Lucius and Cissy were planning to propose a contract between me and Draco before they knew I was his sister," I said and he nodded.
"It is not difficult to see how happy they are to have you in the family," Remus said.
"Well, to this dark family, to have the golden girl have to be a good deal," Ron said, "Maybe you need to find a good family to save you."
"I think I know what is best for me, and I have my parents to help me if I'd need advice," I said.
"Just remember that we can help you," Molly said glaring at me, and I could feel that she would love me to choose Ron or one of her sons.
"Thank you, Molly," I said, and I felt a hand on my waist.
I turned around and I saw Severus standing next to me. I looked into his dark eyes and I sighed. He smirked and bent down kissing softly my lips. I smiled and I bit his lower lip making him growl softly.
"Holy shit! Is he your suitor?" Fred yelled.
"Yeap, from this afternoon," I said enjoying Severus arms around me.
"This afternoon, Severus and Ara asked for our blessing and he is her suitor," Father said and Portia nodded. "We are talking about a long engagement; hopefully the marriage will be after her masteries."
"So we have something to celebrate," Albus said, "Severus and Ara, you are a very good match; I saw you all these years hoping that you would end up together and now I can see the boy, who is like a son for me, happy with a good woman. To Ara and Severus"
The meeting was boring, we talked about some death eaters who were still on the run and Albus said that probably Avery and Doholov were not dead. I felt a stung on my chest as I remembered the battle on the ministry. Albus wanted to talk with Severus, and I stayed with Remus and Tonks.
"Nice to see you happy, cub. I still remember the puppy's eyes you used to make every time he was in a meeting," Remus said and I glared at him, "Yes, cub, it was easy for me to see, but I thought it could be a bad idea to tease you."
"Thanks, Remus. I never thought he could see me in this way. It was a surprise when he talked to me, he was so nice," I said smiling.
"Snivellus? Nice?" Sirius said into my ear, "Kitten, you need to change your suitor to something more interesting."
"I already have what I want so, thank you," I said feeling uncomfortable.
"Pet, I can show you what a good suitor can be," Sirius said leering on me, and I felt somebody pulling me far from him.
"I will only say this once, Black, stay away from my witch!" Severus said in a low and menacing voice.
"Snivellus, I was only joking," Sirius said laughing.
"Sev, can we go to the manor?" I asked, and he nodded.
"Yes, the meeting is over and I was coming to tell you that your father is waiting for us to go to the manor, he said he needed to talk with us," Severus said, and Sirius snickered.
"Maybe having second thoughts and wanting to find something better for his daughter?" Sirius said, and I took Severus and pulled him to the floo.
"He is not worth it, let's go talk with my father," I said and he grunted.
We flooed to the manor and we sat together in the sitting room. Mother prepared tea and biscuits and we relaxed near the fire. Draco was upset and I thought I would talk with him. Something was bothering him and I had an idea. Father was holding mother and talking softly into her ear and she was nodding.
"As you could see on the meeting the pressure of being the only Malfoy girl will be big and you will need to make something to establish that you are taken," Father said, and we nodded.
"Do you have an idea?" Severus asked and I thought I guessed what they had on mind and I was shivering.
"We will prepare a ball and you will announce that he is your suitor," Portia said and Severus shook his head.
"Let me think about this and I will give you a better option," Severus said sighing, "Ara, can you be ready for dinner tonight? I will pick you at six."
"Ok, where are we going?" I asked.
"You will see, dress casual as we are going to do something simple. Now, if you excuse me, I have something to prepare," Severus said kissing my head and flooing to the castle.
"Do you think he is having second thoughts about the suitor's thing?" I asked worriedly.
"Second thoughts? Aunty, he is crazy about you. I never saw uncle kissing a woman before, and not caring if somebody saw him," Draco said and I rolled my eyes.
"He was playing a role," I said.
"No, sis. He really cares about you. I can tell you this as I was his friend from back on school. I still remember when he was pinning after the Evan girl and he never dared to touch her. With you he is acting in a freeway, showing you that he cares, and I can say he enjoys having you by his side," Lucius said coming to my side and caressing my head. "You have some hours until he'll come for you. Why don't you change, and we can spend some time together? I did not have the chance to spend time with you alone little sister"
"Ok, wait for me in the reading room, I will be there in ten minutes," I said, and he nodded.
I sat on my bed, and I thought about everything that happened in the last week. The Grangers leaving me, discovering that I was a Malfoy, my parents, Severus. I could never hope to have him like this and I shivered to remember how he reacted when Sirius was too close to me, possessive and showing this to everybody. I put black leggings with a red top and flat shoes and I went to find Lucius in the reading room. It was my favorite room because I could sit on the couches near the fire with a good book and read in silence. Lucius was reading an arithmancy book and I sat by his side trying to see what he was reading.
"Ah, you like this also?" Lucius asked putting the book between us.
"Yes, I like potions better but you can use arithmancy for potions. I do that on my research," I said and he nodded.
"Would you like to research with me sometimes, we could find new potions together," Lucius said and I nodded.
"Yes, I would like that. How do you feel about having me as your sister?" I asked shyly
"When they told me about a sister, I was angry because I was alone all these years craving to have a brother or a sister, and I did not want to understand why they needed to hide you," Lucius said caressing my hand and sighing. "I hoped that you would be smart and fun to be around. When we talked with Severus, and he told us about you, I was scared that you would never want to be in our family after what happened with Bellatrix. I swear to you I never wanted that to happen to you. Narcisa cried for days after you left the manor. She always thought you were beautiful and smart and wanted to marry you with Draco."
"She told me that," I said" When I read the parchment, the first my thought was that you would never want me into your family. I was raised like a muggle and I never knew about our world until I started Hogwarts."
"Ara, you are special, I'm so happy to have you as my sister," Lucius said hugging me, "But never said to anyone that I can be so soft with you"
I laughed hard and he chuckled against my hair. We spent some time reading the book and thinking about the equations for the potion that I was trying to create. Lucius was funny and I was looking at him as my big brother who would protect me always. Sometime later, we were writing a draft of a potion for the cruciatus curse when we heard somebody coughing softly and I saw Severus leaning against the door.
"Happy to see that the siblings are getting well," He said smiling softly, "Ara, are you ready to go?"
"Yeap, Lucius tell our parents that I left with Severus and I will be here next weekend. I will be at the castle if they need me. Classes will start in soon and I need to finish with the preparations," I said, and Lucius nodded
"Ok, sis; go have fun with you suitor," Lucius said, "Severus, I will see you tomorrow as we have a meeting with the board at the castle."
Severus nodded, I gave Lucius a kiss and we left the manor. Severus looked at me and put his arm around my waist pulling me close to him and apparating us to a beach where I saw a blanket with a basket and some pillows. We sat and he opened the basket and started to take out some food. There were some French fries, salads, sandwiches and a little chocolate cake. He served some elf wine and I took a sip enjoying the taste.
"I thought it could be a good idea to enjoy a little picnic on the beach," Severus said and I beamed at him.
"I love it, thanks," I said and he smirked.
"So, how was your little talk with Lucius?" he asked.
"Nice, we are getting to know each other. We have some ideas to work out in the lab," I said.
"He is good with potions and arithmancy," Severus said, "I can help you also if you want."
"Could be a good idea because we are trying to create a potion to cure the cruciatus curse," I said.
"Yes, it could be a good idea to help people like Longbottom," Severus said, "Did you write something?"
"Yes, we were researching about some ingredients that can be used, but know we need to see if we can mix them and how to do it," I said.
"I will help, but we can talk about other things now," Severus said taking one of my hands and kissing my fingertips. "How do you feel now that the Order knows about us?"
"The same? It doesn't change anything for me," I said and he exhaled his relief, "Severus, I was pinning after you for the last four years, why do you think that what they want will change how I feel about you?"
"Sorry Ara, it just that it made no sense for me that a beautiful and smart girl like you will want to be with me," Severus said, and I caressed his cheek.
"Severus, today Remus was teasing me about my puppy eyes," I said and he blinked, "He said I used to look at you with the biggest puppy eyes he ever saw and I would follow you with my eyes in every order meeting."
"I never realized you could look at me that way or I would try to talk with you before," Severus said kissing me softly. "Ara, I met you seven years ago when you entered our world, and I saw you growing up and becoming this beautiful young woman. I followed your endeavors after Potter and Weasley and tried to protect you from your foolishness and encourage your intelligence."
"I know, it was difficult for you and your spy job, sorry," I said and he put a finger on my lips silencing me.
"Let me finish," He said pecking on my lips softly. "When you accepted me as your suitor, I started to think about what I wanted for my new life and I realized that all I want is to have you there, in my life and in my heart. I never feel this before, Ara. I always thought that what I felt for Lily was love, but now, I realized it was only friendship because it would never be compared with what I can feel for you."
"Severus?" I said with tears in my eyes.
"I know I'm older and that I was your teacher, but I would like to spend the rest of my life discovering you and your dreams and fears," Severus said and he breathed before continuing talking, "Ara Portia Malfoy, I love you and I would like to have you by my side to prove how important you are to me. Will you do me the honor to become my wife?"
I stared at him, tears falling down my cheeks, not believing that my wildest dream was coming true and caressing his face slowly. He was looking at me waiting for an answer and I kissed him softly, startling him.
"Severus, you are making my wildest dream a reality. It was my fantasy to become your wife and to bear your children," I said, and he beamed at me, "It will be my honor to be your wife."
He took me into his arms and kissed me deeply, putting all his love in the kiss. I was radiating happiness; I was his as he was mine. We would be together no matter what everybody said about this. He pulled away and he showed me a little black bow. I opened and I found a platinum ring with a big emerald encircle with tiny diamonds. It was perfect, the perfect Slytherin ring.
"This belonged to my mother, and I hope you'd like it," Severus said taking the ring and gliding it on my left ring finger.
"It's perfect, love," I said softly, "Did you think about a date for the wedding?"
"Do you want to wait or do you want to marry soon?" Severus said.
"Well, I don't want to put some pressure on you but…" I said stuttering.
"Love, tell me, it will be ok?" Severus said caressing my back.
"What do you think about getting marry at Christmas?" I asked, and he chocked.
"Are you sure about this?" Severus asked.
"Well, we can wait if you'd want," I said softly looking down.
"Love, it would be a pleasure for me if you'd take me but I thought you want to finish your masteries before the wedding," Severus said.
"Nope, I can do this, and I will have you by my side to help me," I said and he smiled.
"So, what do you think to go to the manor and give Portia full reign on the preparations?" Severus said and I cringed.
"Oh, this will be embarrassing," I said, and he laughed while packing everything. He snaked his arms around my waist and we apparate to the manor startling everybody in the sitting room.
"Dear Merlin! Severus, don't do this anymore!" Father said trying to calm down Portia. "What happened?"
"Well, I have a better idea to finish the problems with the potentials suitors," Severus said, and I nodded.
"Tell us, we were thinking about this and we did not find an answer to that," Portia said and Cissy looked at us narrowing her eyes.
"Well, what do you think about starting to organize our wedding for the 20th of December?" Severus said, and everybody gasped.
"He proposed to me and I said yes," I said showing my ring.
Portia and Cissy squealed and ran to look at the ring. Abraxas shook Severus's hand smiling, and Lucius held out his hand to Draco who put some galleons on it.
"How could you know that he would propose today?" Draco said shaking his head.
"I know my friend, and he is half Gryffindor sometimes. No offense, Severus," Lucius said laughing.
"Not taken, to many years working with the foolish Gryffindors rubbed on me somehow. Now, I will have a Gryffindor wife," Severus said smiling and we sat on the couch.
"So, we have to organize an engagement party," Portia said, "Do you want a big wedding a something small?"
"We prefer small, only our friends and school staff. Traditional bonds and the usual contract," Severus said, and I nodded.
"Cissy? Will you be my matron of honor?" I asked her, and she beamed at me hugging me.
"Of course, Ara. I will be there to help you," Cissy said smiling.
"Lucius, I hoped you will stand by my side," Severus said, and Lucius nodded, "Now, we need to go to the castle, and we will talk tomorrow about this."
We flooed to the dungeons, and Severus let me after kissing me goodbye. I went to sleep smiling and I thought about writing a letter to Harry before breakfast. When I woke up is was too early to go to the Great Hall and I saw Hedwig waiting for me with a letter on her leg.
"Hi, girl. Is Harry missing me so much?" I asked her and she hooted softly. I opened the letter and I swore.
"Love, nice way to start the day," Severus said kissing my cheek.
"Ok, hear this," I said.
'Ara,
I write this letter to you because to have some answers. I got some messages from Ron, Sirius and Mrs. Weasley. They told me that you have a suitor and he is Professor Snape.
What happened? Ron said that the Malfoys forced you to take him as your suitor because he is a pureblood and a family friend and that you were uneasy by his side. Mrs. Weasley was sad that you will not be her daughter as she always dreamed, and that you were passing the chance to be the next Lady Black as Sirius was more than eager to be your suitor also.
Sirius wrote that Snape was leering on you during the meeting and dragged you to the castle even before the meeting was over.
I know you well and I know that nobody will tell you or force you to do something you don't want to do. I trust Professor Snape to not force any woman to accept him as her suitor.
Can you write me a letter to tell me what's going on? You are like a sister to me and I'm worried about you.
I love you and waiting for your answer.
Harry'
It was his time to swear harshly and I chuckled. He sat on the couch and pulled me down on his lap. He kissed me caressing my back and told me sweet things on my ear. I melt into his arms and I moaned. He pulled away and smirked at me.
"I was hoping they would be more intelligent, but alas, it was too much to ask for them. What are you going to do?" Severus asked me.
"I will write to Harry and I will explain what happened at the meeting. He told me to be careful with Sirius before he left" I said, "For Ron, Sirius and Mrs. Weasley, we will see them on the weekly meeting and father will announce our engagement. Feel free to hex them if you wish to do it but let me some room to hex Ron and Sirius"
"Well, I cannot hex Molly, but I can take some revenge on Black after all the damage he did on school," Severus said, "I'm impressed with Remus, you told me he was not surprised."
"He said we are a good match," I said, "He is a good friend, and he would like to make amends with you"
"I will try, love. Now, how is everything with the curriculum?" Severus asked looking the parchments on my desk.
"I decided to spend a month teaching them to prepare the ingredients for the brewing. It looks stupid, but I think in the end it would help if they know how to use the dam things first. I still remember how Neville never knew how to cut the livers" I said, and he chuckled
"I should have thought that before starting with the actual brewing but to my defense I never wanted to teach potions, it was Albus's idea," Severus said, "Come, you need a good breakfast."
He took me by my hand and led me to the great hall where the staff was arriving for breakfast. They were looking at us as we entered the room holding hands and talking softly while I smiled at him. He was telling me about a nice hex for Sirius and I started to laugh shocking them. Severus pulled the chair for me and filled our glasses with coffee while I prepare our plates. Albus was looking at me and Minerva was glaring at Severus.
"Care to tell me what is going on Severus?" Minerva asked, "I know that her father chose you to be her suitor but normally you have to wait until the engagement to be public with her like this"
"Well, she is my wife to be so I can do as I want," Severus said caressing my cheek
"Ara?" Remus asked confused.
I smiled at him and I showed them my left hand; everybody was congratulating us and Remus was hugging me while Albus was trying to hold Severus in his arms.
"Old man, I told you I don't like to be hugged in public," Severus yelled, and we laughed.
"Son, I'm so happy to see you getting married," Albus said with tears on his eyes and Severus sighed defeated and resigned to be hug by the Headmaster. They wanted to know everything about the wedding, the date, where this will be, are we using the Manor or maybe the castle. Who was in charge of the wedding planning? Albus said that he would speak with Abraxas as he considered himself to be the groom's father and Severus blushed. Minerva said that she would talk with him to buy a proper robe and Poppy told me I would have to go to the infirmary to talk about contraceptives.
After breakfast, Albus told us to go to his office because he needed to talk with us about some changes he wanted to do before the start of the year. We followed him and we sat waiting for him to start talking
"I was thinking about moving you to a new set of chambers. I have something in mind, and I think you would like them," Albus said.
"Are you sure we can do this before the marriage?" Severus asked.
"Yes, as you are already engaged, is allowed to live together to prepare for the marriage, the only condition is not to get pregnant before the actual wedding to prevent gossip. I think Abraxas will feel better if Ara is not alone" Albus said, 'There is a set of chambers that we never used before on the seven-floor. It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, a sitting room, an office, and a lab."
"Albus, are you talking about his chambers? Are you sure about this?" Severus asked confused.
"Is the chamber of the founder of your house so as the head of his house you have the right to use them," Albus said and Severus nodded.
"He is giving us the Slytherin chambers, they were used by Salazar Slytherin himself," Severus said beaming.
"You are the first head of Slytherin who will be married," Albus said, "We will announce your engagement on the welcome feast."
We nodded and he told us to prepare packing while the house-elves work on the new rooms. We told him we will go to the manor to talk to my parents before moving together and he smiled. We flooed direct from his office and we arrived at the manor on time for lunch. Abraxas smiled at us before telling us to go with him to the dining room. Portia kissed my cheek, and we sat together.
"Nice to have you around. Do you have news to tell us?" Lucius asked.
"Actually yes, do you remember the chamber nobody used on the seventh floor?" Severus asked.
"The chamber of our founder? yes, I remember our head of the house talking about them and how nobody seemed to be able to use them, why?" Abraxas asked.
"Albus offered them to us, to move today after we pack our things," I said and they gasped.
"How?" Portia asked.
"I'm the first head of the house to be married after him so I have the right to use the chambers," Severus said and Abraxas nodded.
"I was thinking in telling you I prefer you to live together," Father says, "No need to tell you that you have to take contraceptives measures before the wedding"
"Poppy told me to go to the infirmary to talk with her about this," I said blushing.
"We need a sleepover and we will tell you some secrets of our family," Cissy said and Portia nodded, "Severus, can you do the packing alone?"
"Yes, Lucius will help me," Severus said.
"I will help too," Draco said, "Everything for my aunty."
"Draco, I will not give you an O without a perfect potion," I said glaring at him and he just laughed.
"Ara, I always wanted to be your friend and now you are family," Draco said kissing my cheek, "Godfather let's go prepare her castle."
"What are you talking about?" Severus asked.
"Ok, I think I will go help too and I will explain Severus how the Malfoy women lead their homes," Abraxas said and Severus glared at him, "Severus, wait until we explain somethings to glare at us."
They left the manor, and Portia led us to my room taking a big book with her. She sat on my couch and Cissy sat on the floor with me, beaming at me. This should be something important for the family.
"This book is the Malfoy secret of home's happiness. Is the recipes book that we share with our mothers in law and we passed to our daughter in law. For the first time on our family history, we have a Malfoy daughter to carry our traditions," Portia said crying, "It was my dream to have a little girl to tell her about this book and when we lost you it broke my heart."
"Is ok, I'm here now," I said smiling at her.
"When Lucius got married, I explain this book to Narcisa and she used it for several years. This helped Lucius in his work against Riddle, and helped Draco to hide his true self," Portia said, "He will tell you that when he will feel comfortable, don't worry I think he is only waiting for the good moment to do this."
"I learned all the recipes and when Riddle died, the book stopped working with me, it was waiting for Portia to come home. This book is a sentient one; it was created when the house of Malfoy was found," Narcisa said.
"Today, we need to teach you the most important lesson for you to learn. The heads of the Malfoy house are not the men; the women would lead her men on the shadows. We decide where the house will go and we will use every tool available to make our man believe that they are choosing our destiny," Portia said.
"That is why they went to help Severus with the moving, to talk to him and teach him?" I asked and they nodded.
"He will no use the secret room because Lucius is the heir but Narcisa will not be able to use this book anymore," Portia said, "They knew we will talk with you about this and they wanted to prepare him."
"Which tool you use for this?" I asked.
"Well, Lucius wanted Draco to go to Drumstrang and I did not want to have my baby away from me," Cissy said smirking, "One week sleeping on the office and Draco was buying his supplies for Hogwarts."
"Smart move Narcisa. I remember one night that Abraxas took Lucius to an ill house, to make him a man he said. It took him two weeks to come begging for forgiveness at my feet, promising not to do it anymore," Portia said and I laughed, "You need to find what will be his week point. For the Malfoy men is their bed, for the Snape men could be something different."
"I think I have an idea and I will try this the first chance I get. You will find this distracting and interesting," I said smiling, and they nodded.
"Until you get marry, we will meet once a week and we will teach you more," Cissy said. "Now, we will eat and we will go to bed. Tomorrow our men will be here for breakfast. The new term is starting in three days."
I woke up with a nice kiss and tender words on my ear. Severus was sitting near me on my bed and was caressing me, trying to wake me up. I opened my eyes and I found him smiling at me.
"Missed me?" He asked and I nodded.
"Yes, but I learned some interesting things last night," I said, "How about your night?"
"Well, they told me some scary stories about the Malfoy women but I told them that this only work with the Malfoy men," Severus said and I smiled softly, this would be so amusing. "Let's go, your family is waiting to take breakfast."
We went to the dining room and the family was waiting for us. Lucius pulled my chair and kissed my cheek. I leaned a little, and I muttered into his ear.
"I don't think he understood what you said to him last night," I said smirking.
"It's in your capable hands to teach him the bad way, little sis" Lucius said smirking and I nodded, "Severus, what are you planning for the next days?"
"I was thinking we need some quiet time to prepare for the next months. Albus is announcing our engagement at the welcome feast, also we have the wedding planning and we need to handle the order," Severus said drinking his coffee and I looked at him shaking my head, "We will probably stay in our chambers for a while"
I stood up, I walked to his side caressing his neck, and he shivered. Lucius and Abraxas were smirking and Portia was beaming at me. I put my mouth near his ear and I try to speak softly and low.
"Love, we will be at the castle most of the year and I want to be with my family for the next days," I said softly and he shivered again, "I will miss my mum and dad also my brother and Cissy. I will want us to stay at the manor for the next two days as we finished all the teaching planning."
"I wanted to be alone with you before the term begin" Severus whined and Lucius chuckled, "How can I do that here?"
"As we are living together you could sleep in my rooms," I said.
"But it's not appropriated to do this" Severus said and I sighed softly.
"I wanted so much to spend these last two days with my family and maybe to see some of my friends but if this is important for you, we will go to the castle and we will stay there until the hols," I said sighing and sitting on my chair looking down and sad.
"Love? Are you ok?" Severus asked.
"I will be ok, I will go to my room for a while. Tell me when we need to leave for the castle, and I will be ready" I said walking slowly to my room.
Lu POV
I stared at my sister in wonder. She was even worse than my mother and Cissy. She had Severus in her hands, and he did not realize that she was handling him like a pro. He just heard her sighed sadly while she walked to her room and he ran after her telling her that they could stay at the manor and that he will be happy to see her smiling again.
My father was laughing and mother was beaming, proud of her little girl. Cissy was looking at me and I shivered, they just got a good lesson from a master, and I was scared at the thought of my wife using this new tool against me.
"Cissy, love, do you need something? A new dress, a jewel?" I said hoping this could help me to tame her.
"Nope, probably I will be happy if you take two days off from work and stay with us but if you cannot do it, don't worry, I will be ok," she said lowering her eyes. Fuck, she learned.
"I will send an owl to the office right now, love" I kissed her and I left the room quickly with my father and Draco after me.
"Ab, can I talk with you?" Mother said and Father cursed under his breath.
"Yes, love?" He said.
"Do you mind to come with me to Gringotts? I need to take a present from our vault for our lovely daughter," Mother said.
"I will be ready in five minutes, love," Father said, and I admired his intelligence as mother beamed at him, kissing him before going to their room to prepare herself. "Don't you dare to laugh Draco or I will get my revenge when you find a wife."
Draco laughed saying that he will change this and we shook our head knowing he was telling the truth.
Ara POV
We spent two days at the manor and it was nice. Harry sent me a letter telling he was ok and that he missed me a lot. He told me he missed to talk to me. He said he was thinking about his life and what he wanted to do and that he would write to me soon. I saw Sirius in the Diagon Alley when I was buying some ingredients for the first year but he did not say anything to me as I was walking with Lucius who was buying ingredients for our potion. Portia invited some of our friends for a little engagement party and it was the first time in many generations that the Weasley clan came to the Malfoy manor. Arthur talked with Lucius and they made a truce when my brother said he did not want to be between my friends and me. He wanted me to be happy. Arthur said he could handle that and they spent the night talking about the last laws they wanted to pass.
The last day at the manor was sad as Severus, Draco and I were leaving together for the welcome feast. Narcisa was crying because his baby was leaving until Christmas, and Portia was sad because she would miss me. I told her we could have me sometimes for dinner and on the weekends, and she smiled softly.
We used the floo to go to Albus's office, and he was waiting for us. He told us that everything was ready, and told Draco to stay in his office. He was the head boy and Hanna Abbot was the head girl. They stayed with Albus, and we went to our room.
The chambers were so beautiful, everything was decorated in cream, silver, and light blue. The bed was big and we found a nursery ready for a baby. I blushed and Severus smirked at me.
"Love, we will not have a little one until you are ready so do not worry yourself over that" Severus told me leading me to our room. It was late and we had only one day to rest before the beginning of the term.
The next day was calm and we finished all the preparations for the new year. Draco came to our room and told me he needed to talk with me about something complicated. Severus smirked and said he had something to do in his classroom and left us alone; I order some tea and we sat on the couch. He was smiling softly, fidgeting and looking down.
"I want to tell you something about me that is very private and I don't want to have secrets with you," Draco said and I nodded, "I'm gay, I just pretended to have a relationship with Pansy because she also doesn't want to get married and it helped us. She has a girlfriend and she is waiting for this girl to finish school before going public about this. Pansy will be here to end his scholarship with us."
"I think I knew this, and I think I know who you fancy Drake," I said smiling, and he blushed.
"He will never look at me that way, he is too good for me Ara," Draco said and I took his hand.
"You need to wait until he comes back from the States and you need to talk with him. He may surprise you," I said and he nodded.
"Are you happy Ara? Are you happy with us?" Draco asked and I kissed his cheek.
"I got to know you after the war and I loved to spend time with you. Cissy was funny to be around and you were a nice change with my usual friends," I said.
"And father? How do you feel about him?" Draco asked.
"When the war ended, I was hurt because everything he told me because of my status and he told me he was playing a role to protect you. I could understand but it was hard. I feel safe with him and I like to spend time by his side," I said.
"So, tomorrow the entire student body will be here and Dumbledore will announce your engagement to the dungeon bat," Draco said smirking.
"Even if you are my godson, I will not allow you to talk about me like this, Draco," Severus said annoyed.
"Sorry godfather, I was only joking," Draco said, "I will go to my room to sleep, see you tomorrow at breakfast."
He left the room and Severus came to sit by my side and started to kiss me softly while caressing my sides. I stroke his hair making him moan and he took me into his arms carrying me to our bedroom. He sat on the bed and I stood between his legs. He opened my jeans and pulled them down and I peeled my shirt dropping it on the floor. He looked at me with hungry eyes and I nodded. I sat on the bed and he undressed himself coming to sit behind me and unclasped my bra, caressing my breasts and pinching softly my nipples. He turned me and he kissed me harder, tasting me and pulling me down on my back.
"Are you sure love?" He asked me.
"Yes, I want you so much Severus, make love to me, please," I said and he started to kiss and suck my neck, toying with my breast until he took one of my nipples with his mouth making me moan. His hand glided against my slit and I shivered; I was not sure what to do and I looked at him asking permission to touch him
"Love, do what you feel and if something hurt me I will tell you," Severus said and I started to play with his flat nipples. He growled and he entered me with one finger preparing me and used his thumb to circle my clit. I caressed his flat stomach and I followed his happy trail to find his cock. It was big and it felt like steel enveloped on silk. I tried to move my hand slowly but he took my hand from him startling me. Maybe I was doing something bad, "Love, it was too good and I want to last the first time."
"I just wanted to, ahhhh" I stuttered when I felt his tongue entering my pussy and I came hard. He was amazing and I wanted to feel him inside me, "Please I want to feel you inside me"
"As you wish, love," he said positioning his cock at my entrance, "Relax, it's only a minute"
He entered me slowly and when he was halfway, he pushed hard breaking my hymen and taking my virginity. I screamed and he kissed me softly muttering love words on my ear. I felt the pain fading and a very nice sensation spreading inside me. I moved against his hips and he pinned me to the mattress, pumping fast.
"Oh love, you are so tight and wet for me," Severus growled.
"Your cock feels so good inside me, move faster love, harder," I yelled and he complied.
We were discovering our bodies and we looked at each other showing a part of our souls. He was so powerful and filled me so completed that I would never want a different partner. He was my soul mate and I realized as we climaxed together and I fell asleep in his arms.
I felt something soft and warm in my pussy and I opened my eyes moaning. I looked at my legs and I found Severus's head between my legs. He was lapping and drinking all my juices and I buckled my hips against his mouth.
"Morning, love," I said, "Starting early?"
"Yes, I needed a good breakfast," Severus said entering me with two fingers, "You are so tight, love."
"Please, I need you inside now" I yelled and he put me on my knees before entering me in one single thrust. He was thrusting hard and spanking my ass. I was screaming his name and he was pumping harder and faster.
"Tonight, we will be so tired and I wanted something to make this welcome feast better," Severus said before he bit my shoulder making me fall into heaven with him. "You are so good, love. Shower?"
"Good idea love, come," I said, and he carried me to the bathroom.
We showered fast and we got dressed. The breakfast would start soon and if we miss it, Draco would never let us hear the end of it. Draco and Hannah would sit at the head table this year and his place was next to mine. He pulled my chair and helped me sit making all the female staff smiled at him.
"Aunty, I thought you would eat in your room today," Draco said.
"Nope, I knew that if I did that you would tease me until next year. Can you pass me the coffee, please?" I said and he smiled.
"In any case, I don't remember my godfather looking so good at the beginning of the year. Good work! "He said and I blushed. Severus looked at us and glared to Draco who shrugged and ate his eggs. "Did you hear anything about Harry?"
"Nope, but I'm sure he will write today," I said, and I heard somebody entering the Great Hall.
"Nope, your friend decided you needed some backup and cut his vacations to be with you," Harry said and I ran into his arms. "I was worried about you and I decided to finish my scholarship in Hogwarts. So, where is the ring?"
"Look!" I said and he took my left hand.
"It's beautiful, a nice engagement ring for you. Fancy a walk now?" Harry asked and I took his arm leaving the room with him. The walk to the lake was short and we sat under a tree looking at the great squib playing with a log. Harry look happy and calm, better than the last time I saw him.
"I will never thank you enough for helping me to end the relationship I had with Ginny. She was using my name and my fortune but never loved me. I realized during these weeks on the States I was not in love with her and you were right," Harry said kissing my head. "I thought about what I feel and I understand your concern. I want to apologize to you because I was harsh when you told me your suspicions about me."
"It's ok Harry, you are my best friend and I was telling you something difficult to take at the moment. What do you feel now about that?" I asked toying with his hair.
"It's difficult, Ara. I was confused and angry at first. I had to think about the last three years, and I saw you were right about this obsession as you called it," Harry said closing his eyes, "Always having to know where he was, what he was doing, when he was coming or not. Something has to be there but it was the first time I felt this so I was scared. My aunt and my uncle use to talk about this, they said it was against nature and I felt embarrassed so I put this under the name of hate."
"So, what are you going to do now?" I asked him.
"I don't know, I'm sure he will never look at me that way," Harry said closing his eyes, "What do you think?"
"Come to my quarters for tea Friday after class and I will tell him to come," I said, "Try talking with him without the name-calling and the insults. He could surprise you."
"Ok, we need to go inside or your dear intended will come after us," Harry said laughing.
Draco POV
Ara told me to come to her room for tea but my father owl me at the last minute, telling me he had things to give me and he needed to meet me as soon as possible so I had to cancel with her. She understood but told me to try to talk with the golden boy if I had the time.
My father wanted to give me something he found on the vaults, and he said could be good for me. We met at the little coffee shop outside Hogsmeade, and we stared at each other for some minutes.
"Draco, now that the war is over you are free to do what you want for your life," Father said, "I will let you choose your life son."
"Are you sure, father?" I asked confused.
"When my sister arrived, that free you from the obligation of an heir, so you can court him, Draco," Father said and I smiled.
"Can you understand how much this means to me?" I asked him and he nodded.
"Yes, today I went to our vault and I found this. It is a set of rings made for a couple of wizards. I read that one of my great-great-grandfathers was a widow and he found love again in a young wizard who stole his heart. As he already had an heir, he was happily married to his lover," Father said giving me a box with two beautiful silver rings. "Be happy Draco, it's all we want for you."
"Thank you, father," I said.
"Just send me an owl when the golden boy said yes," He said smirking. "Two Gryffindor in the family, everything changes I guess."
"Yes, everything changes," I said standing up and waving him before leaving the coffee shop.
I flooed to the castle and I did not know how to do that when I ran into Harry and he looked at me confused. He was so beautiful and his eyes were so big that I could lose me on them.
"Are you busy?" I asked.
"Not really. I spent part of the afternoon with Ara, and I thought to go for a walk. Why?" Harry asked.
"Care to go with me to the ROR?" I said crossing my fingers.
"Sure why not?" He answered and I smiled at him.
We walked in silence until we arrived at the corridor on the seventh floor. I paced around, asking for a calm place to talk and a door appeared. When we entered, we found a nice room with a couch and a table full of chocolate and candies. We sat and he looked at me waiting for me to talk.
"Harry, I was thinking about you the last days, and I was hoping you would be with us on our last year," I said.
"Really, why? You never cared about me," He said softly.
"Well, during the war I had to wear a mask like my father, pretending to be the perfect pureblood wizard. Now I'm free to do what I like, and my father told me to be happy," I said, and he nodded.
"How are you going to be happy, Draco?" He said looking at me with his big green eyes and I couldn't help it.
I put my hand on his nape and I claimed his lips hard, biting him, forcing to open his mouth and tasting him fully; my hands were caressing his head and his lower back when I heard him moan and pressed his body against me. Oh yes, I would buy aunty a big gift.
"Harry, can I court you?" I asked and he looked at me smiling.
"Are you sure you want this?" Harry asked.
"Well, no," I said and he looked sad, "I prefer to call you my boyfriend to be able to claim you properly, but I'm not sure if you want that already."
"There is only a way to know, Draco," Harry said rubbing his erection against mine.
"Don't play with fire, Harry," I said and he smirked pressing his hips harder into mine.
I gasped and I claimed his lips harder while tearing his shirt and opening his trousers and pulling them down with his boxers. He was perfect and he used a spell to vanish my clothes.
"I want to live my life, Draco, without fear, enjoying us together," Harry said and I growled.
"Good thinking, now on your knees," I said pushing him down.
He was on his knees caressing my cock licking the slit and took me into his mouth slowly making me shivered. He was sucking me while he caressed my balls. "Are you a virgin Harry?" I asked and he nodded. I thought I would need some lube and a bottle appeared next to me.
He was moaning and I pushed him on the couch, bending him over the armrest and started to rub his cock while lubing his arse hole and my cock. I pressed one of my fingers inside him, and he groaned moving his hips against my finger. I entered a second finger and I started to prepare him when I heard him asking me for more so I pulled out and place my cock next to his entrance.
"This will hurt, but I will help you," I said sucking his neck and entering him slowly. He was whimpering and I stopped for a moment. He was so tight and I had to control myself to not pound inside him hard. I pulled out a little and I started to push inside again, this time he was relaxed and pushed back against my cock. I was fully buried inside him and it was great.
"Draco, you feel so good, please move," Harry asked and I started my slow ride, speeding slowly until I found a good rhythm and he was yelling my name. "Oh Draco this is so good, fuck me harder"
"Harry, you are so tight, I'm close" I yelled and he started to tighten around my cock exploding a second before me.
I hold him close to me without pulling out, and eventually, I moved, making him whimpering from the loss. He turned around and cuddle into my arms sighing happily. "So? Are you my boyfriend now?" He asked softly.
"Harry, you are mine and I want to give you something, you can take this as you want like a promise or an engagement, for me is the same as I will not see anybody besides you" I stuttered.
"Draco, tell me," Harry said smiling.
"I spent the last two years watching you and longing for you, now I realize that I want to spend my life taking care of you. Will you consider the possibility of becoming my mate?" I asked closing my eyes.
"Draco, I love you and I will love to become your husband," Harry said kissing me softly.
I kissed him hard and I glided the ring on his hand before he put mine on my finger. I was out of the market now and I was so happy about that. We needed to go to talk with aunty, now so we went fast to her quarters. Big mistake because when I opened the door I found her riding my godfather and screaming how big he was. To our good luck, they were in the middle of their orgasm. To our bad luck, he saw us.
"Draco Lucius Malfoy, Harry James Potter, who told you that you can enter my chambers like this!" Severus was yelling.
"Your wife to be who gave us the password?" I said wincing when he pulled out of her and tried to cover her body but giving us a full view of his body. Wow, he was big!
"Ara?" He asked.
"Sorry, I forgot they would be coming back today, sorry," She said.
"Go get dress; we will talk about this later," Severus said and she ran to the room while he started to put his trousers. "What do you need?"
"Can we wait for her to come back?" Harry asked and Severus nodded.
"Ara, hurry, they are waiting for you," Severus said and Ara came back wearing a nice dress.
"We have something to tell you both. Draco proposed today and I said yes," Harry said showing them his ring.
"Congratulations and welcome to the family, Harry," Ara said hugging him.
"Nice move, Draco. What will your father say about this?" Severus asked.
"Well, he gave me the rings who belong to a couple of wizards of the Malfoy line," I said, and Severus smiled, "Ara, I need family time with you, mother and grandmother."
"Oh yes, maybe we can take dinner at the manor as tomorrow is Saturday," Ara said, "We will have a good time teaching you."
"Oh Potter, you are doomed. I think you need to spend time with Lucius, Abraxas, and me. Come to dinner, and we will tell you the joys about marrying one of the Malfoy women," Severus said and Harry nodded. "Let me tell the headmaster that we are leaving and coming back tomorrow."
Ara POV
This was so good, Harry was part of the family now, and everybody was happy. After the news, the men took him to the study to tell them everything about us and we went to our secret room to talk. It was the first time that Draco was here and, he was looking around.
"Draco, we have a potion that would allow you to carry an heir, will you do that?" Portia asked.
"It's me or Harry who has to carry the baby?" Draco asked wincing.
"You, baby. As the heir, you need to carry the next heir," Narcisa said crying softly. "I'm so happy, baby boy."
"Yes, I will do it. Ara, can we have a double wedding?" Draco asked.
"Yes, this will be fun," I said, "Now, we could have a weekly meeting to talk about our secrets and to organize the life of our men. Today we need to think about how to work as a team."
"How this would help us," Portia said.
"I know this is the first time that the Malfoy line has four women, sorry, Draco, but you will be the wife so get used," I said. "If we work together they will be useless and we can do anything for our house."
"Good girl, I knew you would be a good addition to our house, that why I was thinking of marrying you to Draco before," Narcisa said.
"So, what we need to do?" Portia said.
"We need a common objective and we need a good strategy as Lucius and Severus are legilimens," I said.
"What about a good dinner outside tonight? We only took tea" Portia said
"No, I was thinking about something else. What do you think about getting pregnant together? Portia, you are still young for a witch and we could help you, Cissy, maybe you can have your little girl and Draco, Harry would love to have a family of his own."
"Good idea, how?" Cissy asked.
"We can use the idea of the restaurant to make them go mad and fuck us until we pass out. We can help our body with an easy potion I found on the book and Draco has his own potion. So are you in?" I said smirking.
"Of course, which restaurant?" Portia said.
"The secret, a difficult restaurant, if they cannot get a reservation, they need to find something similar," Draco said and we nodded.
"Good, each one of us knows the week point of her or his mate, so play with it until they groan on defeat," I said, "Ready?"
"Yes," they said.
We went together to the sitting room to find four wary wizards waiting for us. Each one of us sat next to her wizard and we continue to talk as if nothing happened. When I nodded, I heard Portia sighing loudly and Abraxas looked at her concerned.
"Do you need something love?" father asked.
"I'm hungry, and I would love to eat something nice," Portia said softly.
"Oh, it could be nice to go eat outside to celebrate our son engagement, don't you think so, Lu?" Cissy said, and Lucius blushed because of her pet name.
"Do you have an idea, love?" Lucius asked.
"I heard about a good restaurant," Draco said caressing Harry's chest, "It's called the Secret, I think."
"This is a very exclusive restaurant, love," Harry said.
"But four powerful wizards like you could convince the owner to find a little table for us?" I said softly nibbling Severus's neck and he shivered.
"Are you sure love? We had a very tiring day, and a good dinner at the manor could be a good idea," Severus said, and Lucius, father, and Harry nodded.
I nodded and I pouted. Portia looked down. Cissy closed her book sighing, and Draco put his hand over a little love bite on his shoulder. We stood up and turned to leave the room.
"Ok, we will go to our room to rest, call us when dinner is ready," I said leaving the room with them.
We stop walking outside the room, and we waited to hear their reaction.
"Fucking hell! Lucius do you have a contact on that restaurant?" Abraxas asked.
"Yes, the owner goes to our club," Lucius said.
"Go floo the fucking owner as I want to get laid tonight," Severus yelled, "Do you understand what we were talking about, Potter?"
"They are scary. How far they can go?" Harry asked.
"One time was two weeks without sex until I groveled for more than an hour," Abraxas said."
"I got it," Lucius said, "When I said that Draco was celebrating his engagement with Harry, the owner told me we could have the private room for tonight in two hours. They will prepare a nice dinner with champagne and everything. We only need good presents for them, and tonight we will fuck our ladies sillies."
"Good, now we need to call our women and see what they said," Abraxas said.
I nodded and we entered the room looking sad, and we went to our mate's side. Each one of us kissed her mates softly and sighed.
"I want to apologize for our behavior. We were rude with you and you did not deserve that," I said with teary eyes, and I saw Severus melt and he took into his arms.
"Love, it's ok. You asked for something, and that's all," Severus said kissing my neck.
"I talked with the owner, and everything is ready for us in two hours," Lucius said.
"So we will go to celebrate our engagement love," Harry said
"So go prepare yourselves for tonight," Abraxas said.
Sev POV
I sat on the table eating breakfast when Harry, Abraxas, and Lucius entered the room looking worm out as I felt.
"Good morning," I said and they nodded. "Take these potions, they will help you"
"Thank you, Severus. Portia tried to kill me last night. God, she is sixty years old!" Abraxas said.
"Not something I want to hear in the morning, father, try silence spell next time," Lucius said groaning.
"You too, asshole," I said, and Harry shook his head.
"We forgot the charms last night," Harry said, "and we got played last night, and we fell like morons.
"How do you know that?" I asked.
Harry gave me an empty vial and I tried to discover the potion. I passed the vial to Abraxas who swore loudly.
"We were badly played out last night and we fell like teenagers. This potion is an old potion from my family. 'confortans masculum procreationem'. Severus? something to say about this?" Abraxas said.
"I guess we need to wait until our beautiful mates woke up and made some tests but I think we need to be ready to changes some diapers on the future," I said, and they groaned.
