And unfortunately I do not own my muse either. ~cries~ I want the rights to my Tom!!!! ~Tom hugs her and glares at the copyright lawyers. They all run and hide from the future Lord Voldemort~
A/N: Well this story is coming to a close. I believe there will only be one more part after this. BTW, my one flame is being used to keep Tom and I warm in cold Southern California. I love all my reviewers. This chapter contains items of a sexual nature, so if you don't like it, or are repulsed by my horrible way of describing it, just skip it. In fact, if you want to, just go find A Malfoy's Ways cause it has a much better love scene in it than I do.
There's something 'bout your eyes
That makes me search my soul
Then make me try to realize
I'm trying to be a better man
You gotta know what's on my mind
I will give you all my time
Oh I feel for you baby, yes I do
All I want is you
And when I search my soul I find
A better place-to be around
I'm trying to tell you what's on my mind
But will I make it through in time
And when I search my soul I find…
You make me wanna be yeah a better man
I've never felt so in love
The way I feel when you touch
Although it doesn't sound that much
All I have to do is look in your eyes
You gotta know what's on my mind
I will give you all my time
I feel for you baby, yes I do
All I want is you
And when I search my soul I find
A better place-to be around
I'm trying to tell you what's on my mind
But will I make it through in time
And when I search my soul I find
A better place-to be around
I'm trying tot tell you what's on my mind
You make me wanna be yeah
A better man, alright
I wanna take you higher
I wanna reach fro the sky
I wanna show you fire
I'll never tell you goodbye
You're on my mind-You make me a better man (Five)
You make me a better man
Normal pov
Six months later…January 1st
Close to one hundred wizards and witches stood in the Great Hall of Hogwarts waiting around for the biggest event since the graduation after party seventeen years before. All of them were dressed in dress robes and they stood around chatting. Suddenly Albus headed to the front of the hall where the teacher's table usually rested. Next to him stood Lucius Malfoy looking very cool in robes of black with silver trim. Next to him stood Draco in similar robes. The others settled down and they stood waiting.
Music suddenly filled the air as the doors to the hall opened and Harry walked in accompanied by Sirius and Luke. The three wizards wore emerald green robes trimmed in silver. They walked slowly as they approached the raised dais where their family stood. Harry's eyes were locked on Lucius' as he approached the wizard. Draco and Luke shared brotherly smiles as they saw the looks on their parent's faces.
Lucius held out his hand as Harry got within two feet of him. Harry immediately took the offered hand and he could swear he heard some female in the audience sigh romantically. Sirius and Luke stood off to the side and the five turned to look at Albus. He cleared his throat loudly and nodded his head to stop the music.
"Ladies and Gentlemen I welcome you to the widely talked about event that we have all had the privilege of attending. The wedding of Mr. Lucius Malfoy and Mr. Harry Potter. As you all know I am Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts. This however is no ordinary wedding," some guest snorted at the thought of the wedding of the Harry Potter being considered ordinary, "yes I know our Harry is anything but ordinary. Anyway, Lucius and Harry have asked me to officiate their wedding and I of course said yes. Now instead of just binding these two in life, this wedding will also bind their souls together. It is a rare thing for soul mates to find each other, as it is I believe we have only two other couples in this room who are soul mates." Albus nodded towards the younger Malfoys and the Blacks. "Now on to the vows. Harry and Lucius have asked to recite their own vows to each other. So I will leave you to it."
All eyes in the room shot to Harry who turned to his son and he took a lovely gold ring from Luke and turned back to Lucius. He took a breath before speaking. "Lucius the first time I met you at the age of seven months has stayed with me my entire life. Whenever I felt depressed I would remember the song you would sing to me in French and I would feel better. Then when I saw you again I wondered how a man so lovely could be evil. Well I have my answer now, it was just an act. So I Harry, give you this ring as a sign of love and devotion to the man who rocked a child to sleep while supposed to be listening to Albus. I have always loved you and I truly believe that my soul recognized you that day in February. It just took sixteen years to get my head around the fact," the guests laughed. Harry took another steadying breath. "I Harry take you as my husband from now until the time our souls die. You are my life and my breath. I gladly put my life and that of our son's into your hands," with that Harry put the ring on Lucius' left hand.
Lucius had to blink back tears as he looked at the face of his love. He turned to Draco and he retrieved the match to the ring that currently rested on his hand. He looked into Harry's eyes and he found his courage there. "I felt my soul awaken the day I met you. I couldn't understand how the little baby in my arms made me feel such a swell of love. It was that day that I understood that for a child to be happy, they had to be loved. So I took that knowledge home and I began to show my own baby that I loved him. And I am so glad that I met you that day my Lion because if I hadn't met you that day and had learned love that night, I may have lost my son. When you defended me so earnestly that day in the ministry at my trial, I fell. I took one look at your eyes and I saw forever. It was that day that I knew that I could be happy and my happiness was you. I Lucius take you as my husband from now until the time our souls die. You are my life and my breath. I gladly put my heart and soul into your hands," Lucius put the ring on Harry's left hand. He squeezed Harry's hand and felt reassured when Harry squeezed back. The two turned to face Albus again. Albus discreetly wiped a few tears away as he faced the guests again.
"With the exchange of rings Harry and Lucius have agreed to merge their souls into one soul. Do the Malfoys agree to this union?" Albus asked, facing Draco.
"We do," Draco replied. Albus turned to Sirius and Luke.
"And the Potters?" he asked.
"We do," Luke and Sirius said together. Albus nodded and he began chanting in an ancient language that few knew of. As his chanting grew louder Lucius and Harry could feel the rings on their hands growing warm and they felt a tingling all over their bodies. To everyone else, they could see a silver light surrounding Lucius and an emerald green light surrounding Harry. As Albus neared the end of his chant the light began swirling around the couple and as the chant finished the light turned silvery emerald and it shot back into the couple. Lucius and Harry gasped for air as they felt their souls reenter their bodies.
Albus opened his eyes and he faced the couple before him. "By the power vested in me by the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I now pronounce you husbands. You may now kiss your husband," Albus said to Lucius. He grinned and he pulled Harry towards himself. As they kissed Albus faced the guests who were cheering. "I present to you Misters Lucius and Harry Malfoy." The crowd's cheering nearly shook the dust off the rafters of the Great Hall.
~*~
The head table was placed back in its spot and the happy couple was sitting where Albus normally would. On their left sat Luke and on their right sat Draco. The guests were scattered all around the Great Hall, in a similar fashion to the Yule Ball during Harry's fourth year.
After all the guests had eaten, the presents were opened. Considering the house elves would be making all of their meals both at Hogwarts and at Malfoy Manor, they didn't get all of the traditional wedding gifts like supplies for the home. However, they did get a lot of gifts you would get at a baby shower, for Harry was indeed pregnant again. In fact, Harry's favorite gift was from the Weasley twins. They gave him a life size cardboard cutout of Lucius from when he was voted Sexiest Wizard by Witch Weekly. What the twins didn't know was that Harry had bought every cutout made and they currently resided in a storage room in the castle. The gift just reminded him how lucky he was to have Lucius when many would kill to get their hands on Lucius Malfoy.
That's why the wedding was only open to close friends and family. Harry didn't want incidences of crazed stalkers trying to kill either Harry of Lucius for taking the other. There weren't many members of the press there, however there was one Daily Prophet reporter that was given an express invitation to come, Rita Skeeter. After being really horrible to Harry in his fourth year, she turned out to be a valuable ally. In her Animagus form she would sneak into Death Eater meetings with Voldemort on the robes of Narcissa Malfoy, which gave the Order much inside information. And a complete list of the inner circle Death Eaters.
Albus gladly offered the castle to the guests for the night as the party came to a close at nearly 3 am. Many drunken adults staggered to their old houses except for the younger Malfoy's and Ron Weasley and his wife. They were each given a guest room apart from the houses. Lucius, Harry, Draco, Hermione, Sirius, Remus, and Luke retreated to Harry's office to celebrate a little further before the honeymoon began. The adults had some muggle champagne while Harry and Luke had some butterbeer while everyone wished Harry and Lucius a happy life together.
"So Harry, are you going to stay at Malfoy Manor during the summer?" Draco asked, sipping his champagne. Harry looked up from his position on Lucius' lap to study his step son/best friend.
"Why? Trying to kick us out before we even get there," he teased.
"Of course. Why else would I ask?" he replied. Hermione smacked him on the arm. Draco shot her an indulgent smile. "Well are you?" he asked again.
"Yes we will be staying at the Manor during the summer," Lucius answered. "Half of the Malfoy elves have come to Hogwarts to serve us during the year, and of course Dobby is here. That elf would follow Harry to Hell and back if Harry just asked." Everyone laughed.
Hermione shook her head. "I don't understand why those elves stayed after I freed them," she said. Everyone laughed again.
"Easy Herm," Harry said. "They had all lived at the Manor since they were born and their families had probably been at the Manor since it was built. There was no way that the Malfoy elves were going to disgrace their families by leaving the Manor."
Lucius' arm was around Harry's waist and he was tracing circles on Harry's slightly distended belly. Harry leaned back against Lucius' chest and he sighed softly. This was something he had missed while pregnant with Luke. Luke, in one of his childish moments, climbed up beside Harry on Lucius' lap and he curled up with his head on Harry's belly. His parents could hear him talking to the baby. Harry and Lucius exchanged smiles and they kissed softly over his head. The other four smiled slightly when they saw the family moment.
A half an hour later Sirius and Remus got up to leave. The looked at Luke who had fallen asleep on his parent's laps. "Do you want us to take him?" Sirius asked, his voice quiet for once. Harry shook his head.
"Naw. Herm and Draco are going to take him when they go. He asked to stay with Lily and Rolf tonight. But I'm sure you can tempt him with seeing James and Justin tomorrow. Who knows what those terrors are getting up to right now. After all they are the children of the Marauders." Harry smiled at his godfathers.
"As are you little Prongs, but yet I see you've become a teacher," Remus teased Harry. Harry rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue. Draco and Hermione stood up as well and Draco picked Luke up off his parent's laps.
"We'll see you tomorrow Harry, Father," Draco said. Hermione kissed both Harry and Lucius' cheeks. The four adults walked out of the room. Harry looked at his husband.
"Alone at last," he said with a fake leer. Lucius smiled at the younger man and he kissed him deeply. Harry shifted in Lucius' lap and he faced the blonde man. Harry tangled his hands in Lucius' long hair and he kissed his husband back just as deeply.
The two men retreated into their rooms still kissing. Harry had his legs locked around Lucius' waist and his hands buried in Lucius' hair. Lucius supported Harry as he walked to the bed. He fell back onto the mattress, Harry landing on the top. Poppy had advised them that it would be safer for the baby if Harry was the one to make love to Lucius instead of the other way around. Because when Harry was pregnant with Luke, Harry was practically a recluse so he had no problem of avoiding sex. But now, Lucius knew of the pregnancy so Harry didn't have to hide. Lucius kissed Harry's scar then he brushed kisses along Harry's chin. Lucius took Harry's right earlobe into his mouth and he nipped it. He ran his tongue along the ear and he blew gently into it.
Harry moaned breathily as he felt Lucius' beloved mouth kissing him. Lucius felt his growing erection twitch when he heard the exclamation from his loves' lips. He moaned softly when he felt the bulge inside Harry's jeans brush against his groin. Harry smiled when he heard the moan. He began kissing Lucius' neck and he sucked slightly at the spot where his neck met his shoulder. Lucius moaned louder and he jumped slightly.
Harry began unbuttoning Lucius' robe slowly. He smirked when Lucius began protesting the speed of Harry's actions. Not too long after he began the process did he finish. Lucius however returned the favor, only by going even slower. Soon their wedding robes were removed leaving the men in only their boxers. Lucius smirked at Harry's snitch boxers; Lucius had given them to Harry when they first got together. Harry raised an eyebrow back at Lucius, he was wearing bludger boxers. Harry and Lucius smiled and they kissed softly. Lucius' hands cupped Harry's face and his tongue brushed against Harry's. Soon their tongues were battling for dominance. Lucius' long fingers sneaked into Harry's perpetually messy hair.
"Harry," Lucius gasped. Harry ran his hands down from Lucius' hair to his chest. His fingers trailed slowly over the muscles, delighting at the feel of skin on skin. Harry broke the kiss to begin where he left off at Lucius' neck. He ran his tongue over the skin, delighting in the taste. Harry had always been fascinated with the taste of Lucius' skin. He began nibbling on Lucius' left nipple with his lips. Harry's lips trailed down Lucius' body…
(A/N: HEHEHEHE you all hate me now don't you? Well I can't write smut to save my life so to get a good picture of what they're doing, go find A Malfoy's Ways. That's what got me into Lucy/Harry fics. Let your mind wander freely for now)
The next morning Luke snuck into his parent's room to see Lucius sleeping peacefully on his back with Harry sleeping with his head on Lucius' chest. Their fingers were entwined to the side and Lucius held Harry close. Luke smiled, he was glad to have his family complete and with a baby sister on the way. "Dad, Father!" he called. Lucius opened one eye and he smiled slightly at his son. He raised one hand and he put a finger to his lips.
"Shh…Dad's sleeping," Lucius whispered. Harry smiled.
"To late," Harry said. He raised his head and he smiled at his son. He kissed Lucius softly and he got out of the bed. Halfway out of the bed he remembered that he was very much naked and he had a very curious eleven year old in the room. "Uhh…Luke. Could you excuse us?" he asked. Luke nodded and he walked out into the main room of Harry and Lucius' quarters.
Harry and Lucius climbed out of the bed and they quickly preformed a cleaning charm and they dressed themselves with the flick of a wand. They walked out of the room hand in hand. They noticed Luke was reading one of the many potions books that Severus had given Harry. Lucius wrapped his arms around Harry's waist and Harry leaned back against Lucius' chest. "Isn't he just too adorable?" Harry asked softly. Lucius murmured his agreement and they kept watching their son.
Three days after the wedding, Lucas Cedric Potter was renamed Lucas Cedric Malfoy.
~*~
Five months later Lenora (hehehehehe I love my pen name) Catherine Malfoy was born. She joined her brother living with her parents at Hogwarts until Harry retired after teaching for twenty years. She actually ended up replacing Harry as the potions professor. The Malfoy's were blessed with two more children after Len. Jeremy Scott and Anne Julie Malfoy.
The family was quite happy in their life and they never really had to worry about their lives. The children knew that Harry and Lucius would protect them.
