Chapter 30 (wow! I made it to chapter 30!)
"Albus, that's not possible." Alex said slowly, trying to find the logical way to explain this all.
"I'm afraid it is." Albus sighed. "Years ago your father and James' mother have a brief affair. The product of that affair was James."
"Why didn't anyone tell us?"
"We didn't see the point of telling you when you were children. He was a Gryffindor and you were a Slytherin, the only thing the two of you hade in common was hatred."
Alex silently nodded, to think that this whole time she had a brother and he had tried his hardest to make her life hell.
And now she had a nephew who she would have to prepare to fight against her former master. 'A Greek tragedy if I ever knew one' She thought to herself. She looked down at Severus, who was pretending to sleep although he was listening carefully to Alex and Albus' discussion.
"When Severus is better we will discuss what needs to be done for your nephew."
"I take it that he doesn't know yet about me being his aunt?"
"He does not, I'll leave it to you to tell him, please try to keep it from becoming common knowledge, we'll want to keep certain children from running home and telling their parents." (Note for the dense: Translation: The children of death eaters)
"I'll try."
"Good, I'll let you and Severus to talk." He said leaving just as Alex turned to look at Sev.
"Faker." She whispered to him.
"Gryffindor's sister."
"Gryffindor sister's lover."
"Afraid you've got me there."
"I can't believe no one told me about this. It's just like, oh by the way your old enemy is your half brother."
"Would you calm down please, you're starting to act like one of the whiney unstable brats we teach." He said, grabbing her hand and pulling her onto the bed.
"You're right, sorry. How are you feeling love?" She asked trying not to touch him with any force.
"I'm fine. Just a little sore."
"Welcome to my world." She grinned, giving him a kiss. "So when are you getting out of here?"
"Honestly you wanton woman, let me rest first!" He said looking at her with a smirk.
"Sev, get your mind out of the gutter! We're going to have to speak with Harry soon. And before we do that I would like to curl up with you in our own bed." She said.
"Suppose that would be nice. Poppy said that I could go after I woke from the sleeping draft she gave me."
"Well let's go and sleep in our own bed." Alex said, pulling his bed sheets back. "I see you were injured so severely that they had to remove your pants?" She grinned at him after noticing the effect that she had on him.
"You act as if you've never seen me naked before." He smirked at her before pulling her down on top of him.
"Sev I thought you were too sore for that sort of "Wanton" thinking?" She smiled before giving him a kiss.
"A little bit of pain is worth it love." He smiled, giving her another kiss. "So lets get my clothing and then you can make me suffer a little bit."
"Oh, so I'm the mistress and you're the slave?"
"Never thought of it like that but okay." He said grabbing his wand off the nightstand and magically dressing himself.
"Shall we go than?" Alex asked, taking his hand.
"Please." He said, now they both walked slightly slower. They eventually made it down to the dungeons. Then they made it as many times until Sev was in too much pain.
Ahh... quite a chapter eh?
