Hey! This was supposed to arrive on Christmas, but I got a little busy. Sorry about that. The next chapter should be up moderately soon. R&R! SDT

Chapter 9: Meet Daddy

The entire Weasley brood had arrived, along with Dumbledore and Hermione's parents. "Hermione!" was heard before Fred and George tackled her in the foyer. "Ow, guys, get off." "what? No love for Gred and Forge? Why 'Mione, we're shocked!" Grumpily, Hermione shouted, "Ginny's snogging Malfoy!"

Both brothers were soon joined by Ron and a scared Draco to be taken outside for a talk. Meanwhile, Blaise and Hermione went over to Dumbledore.

"Ah, the Head Students are here. Congratulations! But, I presume this is about your situation, Miss Rengars?"

"Yes sir, I have news. Blaise is my ideal mate." Dumbledore nodded wisely, so Hermione continued.

"Also, I transformed today sir." His smile changed into a look of shock. "you transformed? But why? How?"

"Well, I was listening to Blaise sing, and I," Hermione blushed, "I got kind of woozy. Then, I remember purple light and I was... there."

By now, Dumbledore was slightly relieved. "Although this is uncommon, it means your powers are very strong. An emotion for your mate, in this case, adoration, caused your wild magic to be released. I suppose it's time for your lessons. Your mother will help you transform at will and you will get personal training at Hogwarts. I will expect you one week prior to school to move in to headquarters and get better acquainted. Now, I believe, Blaise, that your mother has prepared dinner, lets eat!" and the group went into the dining room for a hearty Italian meal.

After dinner, Draco and Harry left together, suprisingly deciding to have a sleepover, on Draco's request, at Malfoy Manor. Then the Weasleys left, making everything very quiet. Denise pulled Francesca into the dining room while Kent interrogated Blaise.

"What have you done to my daughter? No Sex! EVER! You don't touch her more than five times a day, do you? Just because she's destined to you! Oh, and no kissing until she's 35!"

Jeez, I can see why Hermione's so uptight.

"Daddy, daddy, please! Its ok. Surely you remember how the soul mate spell is broken? Just let Blaise be. Besides, I got you a new threstral. Lady Jezzebel will have 13 babies in a few months." Hermione rambled, trying to placate her father.

Kent gasped, "Thirteen? WHERE? In the barn?" With that. He whipped over to the barns, anxious to meet his new charge.

"Your father's a bit strict. No kissing until 35?" Blaise remarked. Hermione giggled, 'Yea, mom overruled him, but we let him think he has power."

Then, Denise Rengars and Francesca Zabini entered the room with identical, evil grins.

"Blaise darling, come here." Gulping, Blaise stepped forward and spoke, "Yes'm?" Yes'm? That's the cutest thing ever! Hermione gushed in her head. Her thoughts were interrupted by Mrs. Zabini. "Blaise, I'm going to join your father until November. You will be living at the Rengars', Hermione's wing, to be exact. You will be there until you go to Hogwarts. Hopefully, everything will run smoothly."

As the two students stood shocked, Denise flicked a tendril of hair from her face, and swept forward.

"Well, lets collect my husband from the barn, we should be getting home now. Come along, dears."

They followed Mrs. Rengars, and Hermione pulled Blaise back.

"Yes'm? God you're adorable. Why, I could just kiss you!" Blaise bent down and kissed Hermione deeply, stopping her words. After a few minutes, both came up for air. Breathless, Hermione said, "You should do that more often." Slyly, Blaise replied, "Yes'm."
