Chapter 6
They went in the hallway and followed the house elf to the dinning room. The house elf opened the doors and popped away. The room was filled with people that Malik knew from his lessons with father; they held high places in vampire society. He smiled politely at their surprised faces and sat in a chair next to his father. Alec stood behind him like a trusted bodyguard. Severus smiled to his son and turned back to their guests.
"Malik let me introduce you to the high council, they will help you make decisions when you are prince." Malik smiled and said in a deep voice, "I am pleased to meet such noble, respectable men, I am sorry that I don't know you all by name, but I am sure with time we will be the best of partners. I hope you stay behind, so I can get more equated with you all. Oh and Mr. Shande," a man in the middle of the table looked his way, you can see deep dashes on his face that he was trying desperately to hide. He got from a fight he got in with a werewolf, the man was handsome but the dashes could scare some people. " I heard that your hunts have not been going really good, after that fight with a werewolf, anyway I think this will help." Malik had a glowing orb in his hand; he made it float to Mr. Shande. The man looked at it and slowly touched it. The dashes on his face quickly disappeared living behind only the deepest one, but it was almost invisible it gave him a mysterious look. Shande touched his face not believing that they were gone. The others looked awed at the change. "Now you should not have any problems, now no more hiding in the dark, said Malik. Shande smiled and said, "I will use it well."
The dinner went on with pleasantries, and after Malik got to meet everyone in person, they were all really nice, and had short polite conversations with him before leaving. Severus was proud of his son, he held this dinner really well, and he did not offend any one, and was polite and interesting to talk to even for these old politics.
When they all left Malik just set and politely talked to his father about future plans, Alec was finally able to sit able to sit down and eat. There was a knock on the door and Mr. Malfoy entered the room. "Your highness Dumbledore is arranging the funeral for Harry Potter, you and your council are invited. I think Malik should make a public appearance; I am taking Draco so they could talk to each other if they get bored. I am sure Sirius, the Black heir is going too, he is thirteen now, and understands the responsibilities of a vampire. Like keeping secrets about Malik." Malik looked at Lucius, "Draco, I remember him, blond hair, silver eyes, I kind of liked his personality I hope he has not changed much. Sirius has a little too much energy, he liked to play jokes on everyone, and he was kind of annoying when I was holding on to him. His soul just would not stay still even for a minute, I think he got to much freedom, needs more discipline," said Malik.
Lucius smiled at the comment about his son, it meant that the future prince has been thinking about Draco, which could be a good thing for his son, who idealized his savior to the point of love and he is only four. Yet vampires mature faster then humans, because they are almost independent after ten. In vampire society first hunt marks you as adult, these are squealed events so they cannot be early, because it takes a lot for a vampire child to want to hunt earlier then ten. The vampire's father can kill any unvampire creature causes premature first hunt, if a vampire caused it, they will go to trial. The usual punishment is two month with only one drop of blood a day, it is pretty harsh because most cannot handle one month, Lucius was glad that he got to kill those muggles, it was an honor he will never forget. The whole vampire species can feel strong emotions from the prince that is why they are trained to control them. When Lucius started to cut the muggles he felt great joy from the prince and it made him even more exited, he cut slowly wanting to make it last. The feeling from the prince made him more powerful, more in control of his natural gifts, it made it easier to not want destruction, and wanting justice.
"I assure you Malik that he mostly the same just has a few more admirers. The funeral is tomorrow morning I will see you then. I wish you all goodnight," he then left the room.
Severus led both boys to bed, and then took Alec away for a second while Malik changed into nightclothes.
"Alec I need you to understand this, Malik is not a happy four year old, I only held him twice in real life yesterday and the day he was born, I held him in his dreams, but it was nothing compared to how much hatred those muggles had for him. He needs love, he need an older brother that will give him all the love he needs. I think that you will do great because you always have to be with him. Now vampires need physical contact to get a share of love, so hugs are appreciated, I wish for you to share a bed with him, because he will probably have nightmares for a long time. I know you will fit well in the role of a bigger brother you are all ready really protective of him, now off to bed. We have a funeral to get to tomorrow, I will need you to keep a sharp eye on the people around my son, I don't want him hurt, good night," said Severus and left the room.
Severus put his son to bed, he gave him a big hug and a kiss on the forehead before leaving. Alec lay on the bed and brought Malik closer to him. "Go to bed kid," the child nuzzled closer and fell asleep. Alec watched him sleep for half an hour then fell asleep as well with a gentle smile on his face. The spirit came out and looked at the two children. Malik was sucking up love energy, while Alec enjoyed the comforts of family. The spirit enjoyed the balance, most spirits liked balance it created peace, they both gave and received something. The spirit blessed both children and went back inside Alec proving him with knowledge, while it got a host with the required specifications.
Morning came and the light sipped trough the drapes awakening Malik, he pulled himself out of Alec's embrace and walked to get ready for the day. Alec awoke from his movement, but went back to sleep. When he came out he was clad in black shorts and a black silk shirt with a black robes loosely covering him, they were going to the wizard world after all, on his feet were dragon hide boots. He smiled at the sleeping Alec and went into the closet to find him something to wear. He came out with an outfit that was just like his but it was dark blue, and tighter then Malik's. He put the clothes on the bed and crawled to Alec with the grace of a tiger. Malik gently bit down on Alec's neck and began to feed he gently played with Alec's hair. The sparks went down Alec's back as the vampire feed, making him wake up and move closer to the boy.
Malik finished with a lick to close the wound and said, "Come Alec time to get ready I got your outfit right here, see you in ten," then he moved to the chair in front of the dresser, where a house elf started to brush his hair. After a quick shower Alec got the same treatment when Severus walked in. "Come children the limo is waiting, their is food in the limo. We don't want to be late," he hugged Malik and led them to the limo.
Albus sat at the front row in front of the namesake coffin, the hope of the wizard world had died, Harry Potter and his family has been attacked by death eaters. His perfect weapon has been destroyed before it could be programmed. now the light side didn't have a chance, that was why he invited the vampires if he could make some kind of deal, most of the dark forces will stay with the vampires. The reason they won the last war was Harry Potter, and the fact that the vampires left the dark lord, weakening him by two-thirds of his army. In other words who ever got the vampires will win the war. He has been trying to get Snape to work for him, but the prince refused saying he needed to take care of his child. The sacred one the golden pearl that the vampires are afraid to lose, the one that the whole wizard world has tried to see. Yet the security around the castle, doesn't allow anything in, even animals stay couple miles away. That child gives a lot to their race so he is well protected from everything. The vampire council is all ready here, so are the Blacks and the Malfoys, they are awaiting their Prince.
The Black heir just turned Moody's hair blue. The Malfoys heir looked extra excited, while looking at the entrance. Lucius spoke to the child, Draco quickly composed himself, but still keeps sneaking looks to the door.
Large limo stopped in front of the doors, four body guards came out of the car and walked to open the door for the prince, as the door opened you can see the prince quickly talk to someone inside and exit. After him came a boy of about twelve, he sharply looked around before stepping next to the four bodyguards. Dumbledore saw the two blades on his back but only barely before a powerful spell forced him away. The figure was definitely a bodyguard, but for whom, Albus didn't know. All the vampires turned to the limo a spark of magic not unlike the veela came from the limo, pulling everyone else's attention to it.
