Quick note – I have had an interesting and mildly constructive review for chapter 29 from remuslupinlover and I would like to give my 'reasons' and explanations to give answers for some of the things that I have put in that chapter.
Firstly thank you for the review. I don't hate you! As long as you keep reading! I have to agree I don't like chapter 29 that much either. I wasn't really in a proper writing mood for that chapter but I promise you! I promise you that it does get better! I hope I get a review from you on chapter 30 (The WEDDING!) to let me know what you think!
About the breast conversation – Pamela Anderson? Lol! That made me laugh! In a good way! No way are any of them like that! 36D is no way like Pamela Anderson! I'm 36D! I just thought the guys could have a funny conversation.
Remus is the same guy! If I thought he went too out of character like in some fanfics I have read I would probably stab myself in the eye. I just think in my mind since he met Accalia I thinks he's more happy in himself and more like he was when he was younger during his time at Hogwarts. Like we see in Order Of The Phoenix! Maybe he's not as shy as he was but he's still gentle and quiet! Honest! I still think he's mysterious. When I write my honeymoon series for them we will find out some secrets and stuff like that.
Accalia has been annoying me too! It's so funny how we both think that! My sister, who has also been reading it has said that too. Don't worry she's definitely not perfect! I promise you will see this soon! Everything is not as it seems!
I really hope I don't lose you as a reader because you are one of the best and most loyal, you could say. Hope you like the twist!
I thought of this ages ago but didn't know where to put it! All I can say is that I have been waiting to write this for ages… You'll see what I mean!
Chapter 31: Of Receptions and Uninvited Guests
Remus opened the door of the carriage and taking Accalia's hand helped her into the carriage before he himself got in.
"11 Grimmauld Place isn't it Mr and Mrs Lupin?" asked the driver.
"Yes, thank you driver," said Remus clasping Accalia's hand in his, "Oh, and take the long way round please."
"I can't tell you how strange but wonderful that sounds! I can't quite believe it!" smiled Accalia as the carriage began moving.
"Well believe it Mrs Lupin," grinned Remus kissing Accalia on the cheek.
"You look so handsome today," smiled Accalia resting her head on Remus' shoulder.
"Don't I always?" smirked Remus making Accalia look up at him.
"Of course but just today especially so," smiled Accalia moving forward to kiss Remus pressing her body into his making him groan with appreciation as her breasts pushed into Remus' chest.
"And did I tell you how beautiful you look today?" whispered Remus huskily moving his hand up to cup Accalia's face before kissing her slowly.
"Yes, but you can keep telling me for as long as you like," whimpered Accalia as Remus trailed moist kisses across her jaw and then down her neck making Accalia rest back into her seat.
"You…are…beautiful," murmured Remus between kisses as he travelled back up her neck before moving on to her lips once more.
Accalia wrapped her arms around Remus' neck as his tongue ran along her bottom lip seeking entrance into her mouth. Remus' tongue met Accalia's as she opened her mouth to his. Accalia groaned as the heat from Remus' mouth joined with hers making her heart beat faster.
Minutes later the carriage stopped. Remus and Accalia broke apart breathing heavily. Accalia laughed as she smoothed down Remus' ruffled hair and wiped her lipstick from around Remus' mouth.
"Shame really," smiled Accalia, "That shade of lipstick quite suited you."
"Don't even think about taking that comment any further," smirked Remus opening the carriage door.
"Oh I don't know… a bit of mascara, eyeliner, eye-shadow…" smirked Accalia taking Remus' hand.
Remus pulled Accalia causing her to fall into him. Accalia breathed heavily in surprise as Remus held her close into him.
"I'd like to see you try," smiled Remus.
Letting Accalia move away from him Remus still held onto her hand as they walked up to the door of 11 Grimmauld Place.
"That sounds like a challenge to me," grinned Accalia wickedly as they moved in through the door.
"And when do you think you're going to get the chance to do this?" whispered Remus moving up behind Accalia as they sauntered down the hallway to the kitchen.
"Well we've got a ten day long honeymoon coming up…" murmured Accalia as they reached the door to the garden.
Before Remus could say anything else he and Accalia were greeted by a cheer from their guests. The marquee was indeed huge stretching over theirs and Harry's garden. There were decorated tables everywhere and a huge dance floor where people were already dancing to the big band that was playing plus there was going to be a disco as well. Everyone was drinking, eating and laughing together, it was absolutely perfect.
"Do we really know this many people?" asked Remus, "I know you wanted the reception to be big but I'm not good around too many people."
"Don't worry. Just keep thinking about the honeymoon, it'll be just you and me," smiled Accalia.
"Remus, my boy!" exclaimed Cassius embracing a surprised Remus, "Are you going to have the first dance with my daughter?"
"Of course," chuckled Remus uneasily still in shock from Cassius's embrace.
"Wait, where's Toby?" asked Accalia looking around.
"Don't fret, Tonks has got him," smiled Cassius ushering Accalia and Remus towards the dance floor, "Now you and my new son-in-law have to have your first dance!"
"You know your father still scares me, you know I'm not a very touchy feely person," whispered Remus as he lead Accalia on to the dance floor when the music began, "Reminds me of Sirius sometimes, he always used to hug and kiss people all the time, boys and girls! Very liberated was our Sirius!"
"That doesn't surprise me! Well I'd say that you were rather touchy feely with me," smiled Accalia as Remus took her hand in his, his other hand slipping to her waist.
"That's different," smiled Remus, "I've always felt comfortable around you…you bring out something in me that's makes me more happy in myself, like I did when I was younger, with Sirius and James with me."
"Well don't getting all loud and daft on me, you know I love it when I wake up and find you reading a book. You have this utter concentration in your eyes yet you seem to be relaxed at the same time," whispered Accalia
"And then you come and sit down in my lap and I read it to you while you press your body into me making me lose my concentration," Remus murmured smiling as he rested his chin on Accalia's head.
"Then Toby wakes up and I have to go to him leaving you in that chair all hot and bothered," grinned Accalia moving to look up at Remus.
"Aww but then you come back with him in your arms and we move to the bed. I read to you again and we all fall asleep," whispered Remus dipping his head to kiss Accalia's lips, "Accalia, believe me, if our life is always like that then I would be the happiest man alive.
"I hope there are books wherever we're going," smiled Accalia.
"I'll take some just in case," smiled Remus before letting out a low laugh, Accalia looked at him questionably, " You know we are such a strange couple, we find books sexy!"
"Well I don't think we are that strange!" laughed Accalia looking over at Tonks and her brother, "I wouldn't want to be 'normal' anyway."
"Neither would I!" grinned Remus as the song changed and their guest's clapped moving onto the dance floor to dance to the now up tempo music.
Accalia and Remus stopped dancing and went over to Tonks and Snape who were sitting at a table.
"Brilliant wedding you two," smiled Tonks as she saw Accalia.
"Glad you are enjoying it!" smiled Remus, "Good enough for your little sister Severus?"
"Of course," said Snape standing up to shake his new brother-in-law's hand.
"Toby was alright was he?" asked Accalia taking Toby from Tonks.
"He's so well behaved!" smiled Tonks.
"He is for a couple of hours maybe," smiled Accalia kissing her son's forehead.
"Just wait until you're looking after him," smiled Remus smoothing his son's soft hair.
Just then Hermione and Ron came over to them.
"Accalia, you know that wedding book you have? Could we look at it please? There's something I want to show Ron," said Hermione.
"Of course, it's in our bedroom. I'll just go and get it," smiled Accalia passing Toby to Remus, "Back in a minute!"
About twenty people for hug and kisses caught Accalia before she eventually got into the house. Since Accalia, Remus and Toby had moved into the house it had felt so much brighter and happier, a proper home.
Accalia apparated outside to the door to her room where the atmosphere changed for some reason and Accalia didn't like it.
She opened the door and walked inside, looking around slowly. Something just wasn't right. As she first walked into the room a smell rushed and invaded her nose, a dirty, unclean smell that almost made her gag.
As she took another step into the room, there was another blast of a different smell. It was a rather overpowering aftershave smell, much harsher than anything Remus, or anybody she knew would wear.
Suddenly someone grabbed Accalia from behind and held a wand into her throat. Breathing heavily she didn't say anything as the person's arm moved tighter around her waist, holding down her arms at the same time.
"Can't believe you actually did it! You actually married the bastard!" hissed the person who had hold of her.
"Let me go, you utter bastard!" exclaimed Accalia recognising the voice, even though it was hoarse, to be Draco Malfoy. The dirty smell was definitely coming from him.
"There's no chance of me doing that, especially after I've done this…" whispered Draco, "Petrificus Totalis!"
"How in hell did you get out of there?" whispered Accalia as she felt her body tense. Draco pushed her further into the room slamming the door behind her.
"It really wasn't that hard seeing as they don't have the Dementors as the guards anymore, they're just there for the Kiss. The buffoons they had guarding us…" explained Draco after he turned Accalia roughly around to face him.
"Us?" asked Accalia swallowing deeply as the tip of Draco's wand pressed harder into her neck.
Draco grabbed her chin harshly turning Accalia to look at the only dark corner in the room. Accalia gasped as Lucius Malfoy stepped out from the shadow. He was dressed in black and green full, plush robes. Both hands were covered with black gloves, he held his cane in his right hand. His shoulder-length hair slicked back, not a hair out of place.
"As they were leading my father out for the Kiss, we escaped. It was like they had an army of Arthur Weasley's manning the place," whispered Draco chuckling, his breath hot on Accalia's neck.
"So this is her?" said Lucius, his voice deep and silky. Accalia could smell the strong aftershave radiating off him.
"This is her, father," smirked Draco turning Accalia around to face Lucius.
"Pretty little thing isn't she?" drawled Lucius grinning wickedly at his son, "Would make me wonder what she saw in Lupin if I didn't know she was one of 'them' and now she's married him."
"Why are you doing this?" snapped Accalia.
"Killing Lupin would be too easy and well, I've got to get even with the man who sent me to Azkaban and what better way to do it than harm the one thing he holds dear," grinned Lucius evilly.
"He wasn't the only one on that jury, it wasn't just him!" exclaimed Accalia fiercely.
"He may not be the only one…" began Lucius grabbing Accalia's chin roughly, "but he's the one I'm going to most enjoy hurting."
Accalia lashed out and bit Lucius Malfoy's hand,
"You're evil!" she snapped as he pulled his hand away for a moment.
"Oooh, we've got a feisty one here Draco!" smirked Lucius his hand grabbing her face once again.
"Please don't do this," whispered Accalia.
"We've got her begging now, father," smirked Draco.
"Tell me why I shouldn't 'do this', my dear?" smirked Lucius.
"Because you can't leave a little boy without his mother," whispered Accalia.
Lucius mouth looked at Accalia then his son before throwing his head back and letting out the most horrendously wicked laugh Accalia had ever heard.
"What's taking Accalia so long?" questioned Hermione.
"She's probably lost it somewhere," smiled Remus hiding the fact that he was actually rather worried.
"But she has been up there a rather long time," said Snape who seemed to be sharing Remus' worry.
"If she's not back in five minutes I'll go to find her," smiled Tonks resting her hand on Snape's arm.
"This just gets better!" grinned Lucius evilly once he had finished laughing.
"What's the little runt's name, eh?" questioned Draco.
"Let me out the binding curse and I'll tell you," hissed Accalia.
Draco looked at his father questionably.
"She may be a werewolf but there's two of us and only one of her," smirked Lucius, "We'll kill you if you try anything, you foolish bint."
Draco pushed Accalia on the bed, straddled her and undid the spell.
"What the little brats name then?" smirked Draco.
"He's not a brat! His name's Toby," murmured Accalia.
"How sweet!" smirked Lucius.
"There! Are you happy? Now get off of me!" snapped Accalia.
"Ahh, don't be like that," drawled Draco pressing his body into Accalia.
Accalia felt something digging into her side and it wasn't Draco's wand.
"You really are a twisted bastard, you're getting turned on by this aren't you?" grimaced Accalia.
"Really Draco, have some decorum would you? You're giving the Malfoys a bad name!" hissed Lucius scolding his son.
"I'd say both of you give the Malfoys a bad name!" said Accalia as Draco moved off her.
That seemed to hit a nerve in Lucius as he stalked up to Accalia, who was just standing up, and grabbed the back of Accalia's head by the scalp of her hair.
"You know I wouldn't have believed you were Severus's sister. He was a brilliant Death Eater, helping kill all those people!" spat Lucius.
"Shut your filthy mouth!" snarled Accalia.
"Oooh, have I hit a nerve?" smirked Lucius evilly.
"You know Voldemort had Severus under the Imperius Curse. He would never…" spat Accalia.
"Oh you'd be surprised. Ever wondered how your mother died?" smiled Lucius.
"She was… she was attacked," whispered Accalia.
"Did you ever found out who did it?" smirked Lucius knowingly, "Are you going to have a guess or am I have to going to tell you that it was your brother and his father killed your mother?"
"YOU'RE A LIAR!" screamed Accalia lashing out and hitting Lucius around the face sending him flying backwards.
Accalia rushed toward the door but wasn't fast enough as Draco pointed his wand at her and shouted, "Crucio!"
"Something's wrong," said Remus.
"She's probably off talking to people," smiled Tonks at Hermione, though not quite believing her own words.
"No…" whispered Remus shaking his head as Snape looked at him with unspoken agreement.
Out of the blue Arthur and Charlie Weasley came rushing through the crowd towards them.
"Charlie, tell them what you've just told me," breathed Arthur.
Charlie looked at Remus breathing heavily.
"Spit it out Charlie!" exclaimed Snape getting to his feet.
"Lucius and Draco Malfoy… They've escaped from Azkaban," swallowed Charlie.
"Please tell me this is some kind of sick joke!" said Remus his eyes wide in horror.
"Last time they were seen they were headed to London," said Arthur.
Remus looked up at his bedroom window and suddenly heard a shout, a scream and then saw a white blinding light.
"ACCALIA!" shouted Remus as he began to run up to the house followed closely be Snape and Tonks.
"I've got to help!" exclaimed Cassius as Arthur held him back.
"I want to help too but it's too dangerous!" exclaimed Bill as he held Charlie back.
"Accalia…" whispered Charlie.
Lucius kneeled next to Accalia on the floor picking up her head to face him. A hefty bruise was starting to form on Lucius' cheek.
Accalia groaned and a trickle of blood fell from the corner of her mouth as Lucius turned her over.
"Not so pretty now, are we?" smirked Lucius as he pulled Accalia to her feet.
Pulling Accalia back into him Lucius had one hand over her mouth and the other holding his wand into her neck.
"Here they come!" grinned Draco evilly moving to his father's side.
"Let her go!" growled Remus as he, Tonks and Snape ran into the room. Remus took one step forward not taking his eyes away from Accalia's.
"One more step and I'll kill her!" snarled Lucius pressing the wand harder into Accalia's neck.
"It's me you want, not her!" said Remus.
"Believe me, I'd much rather I had her," smiled Draco.
"Touch one hair on her head and I'll…" breathed Remus.
"As easy as it would be to kill you Lupin, I'd much rather kill her because I know that would hurt a hell of a much more," beamed Lucius wickedly.
"Please don't do this," pleaded Remus.
"Haven't we heard that line before, father?" smiled Draco.
"I think Accalia's got a question for her beloved brother before I… well you will see," smirked Lucius taking his hand from Accalia's mouth and roughly cupping her jaw, "Go ahead, my lovely."
Accalia swallowed and looked painfully past Remus to look at her brother.
"Severus," whispered Accalia, "Did you help your father kill our mother?"
"Did he tell you that?" whispered Snape moving forward.
"Answer the bloody question!" cried Accalia.
"Against my will, it was the Imperius curse. I tried to fight it but my father was too strong. Believe I tried to stop him Accalia, I tried so hard," explained Severus, his face contorting fiercely as he fought the overwhelming feeling to cry.
"I believe you Severus, I'd be stupid not to," whispered Accalia, "Luckily my father is strong too."
"What are you talking about?" asked Snape.
Accalia looked into the reflection in the cabinet to the left side of Remus. She wasn't sure the first time she saw it but she was sure now. She had definitely seen her father's foot hiding in the drapes of her bed.
"How touching but enough of this…any last words Accalia?" smiled Draco looking at his father who nodded at him.
"Goodbye…" whispered Accalia, "Goodbye Lucius!
"What the…!" exclaimed Lucius as Cassius' whip enclosed around the elder Malfoy's neck making him drop his wand.
As Accalia moved forward Tonks disarmed Draco and Snape did a binding rope spell on Draco's legs and arms.
Remus held onto Accalia for dear life as she rushed into his arms.
"Accalia…" whispered Remus shuddering with relief, "Did they hurt you? Please say they didn't."
"I'm fine," whispered Accalia as Remus ran his hands over her face and body, "Just a bit shaken."
Cassius pulled Lucius to his feet, he also had Lucius in a binding rope spell.
"Now you apologise to my daughter and son-in-law before I do something I regret," snapped Cassius pushing Lucius forward to face Accalia and Remus.
"I'll never apologise," coughed Lucius and spat at Accalia.
"You foul piece of filth!" snarled Remus pulling away from Accalia and hit Lucius so hard in the face he was torn from Cassius' grasp and fell backward on to the floor.
Remus followed Lucius onto the floor hitting twice more in the face before Cassius and Severus pulled him off.
"Calm down boy!" exclaimed Cassius.
"Never knew you had it in you Remus," said Snape in surprise.
"I've never hated two people so much in my life! They've hurt my family too many times," seethed Remus.
"Show what it takes before you stand up for yourself and your family," said Snape.
"What do you mean by that?" questioned Accalia inspecting Remus' bleeding hand.
"I didn't mean it like that!" said Snape.
"Then how did you mean it?" snapped Accalia before looking up at Remus, smiling in relief.
"This is not the time!" exclaimed Cassius hauling Lucius and Draco to their feet, "I'm taking these two to the authorities. Get Arthur for me will you, Tonks love? Believe me Accalia, Remus by the time you get back from your honeymoon these to will have had the Kiss. I'll gladly see it myself. And I promise you Toby will be safe with us. I'll guard him with my life."
"As will I," smiled Snape.
"We can't possibly go now!" said Accalia.
"Accalia! Now it's my turn to talk you into something but honestly we can't let them ruin this! And I think we both need a rest. Listen to your father and listen to me when we say, everything's going to be alright!" implored Remus.
"Of course I'll listen to you, and I know it everything will be alright. Especially when my father has got anything to do with it," smiled Accalia looking at Remus then her father.
"This was indeed a proper wizarding wedding, can't have one without a punch up," smiled Remus.
"Really not a time to joke, Remus…" smiled Accalia.
"I know, I'm sorry," whispered Remus before capturing Accalia's lips with his.
"Now," whispered Accalia, "Where are we going?"
The next chapter is going to be the last official chapter of this story, (NOOOOOOOO!), but I will be doing a spin-off for the honeymoon, to see what goes on! I love this story and it will be forever my baby! Hope you enjoy the last chapter that is coming soon! Just lots of Remus and Accalia!
Till next time!
Ciao!
