Magical Origins
Year 4: The Resistance
Harry returned to Grimmauld Place was done in secret. Now that Grimmauld Place had the Fidelius Charm placed upon it among other powerful defensive wards and spells. When the charm was cast, Harry was made the Secret Keeper. A shocking move, but the adults said Harry should control the secret as he should be the one who should give the secret out. Also, since Voldemort himself was hunting him, it would make sense to have Harry in control of who came in and out of Grimmauld Place.
Harry immediately sent an owl to Lily, asking if she wanted to come over. To make sure that his mail wasn't intercepted, he places a charm on the parchment that would only allow a parselmouth to open the parchment. A risky gamble seeing how Voldemort was a parselmouth, yet one he knew was a necessary risk since Voldemort was currently on looking for him. He wouldn't be staking out Lily's house. Even if Voldemort knew about his relationship with Lily, he couldn't do much about it.
Lily, of course, agreed to come over, and her father was going away for some time for work. Her father also gave his approval.
Harry spoke to Olivia, believing a woman arriving would be more appropriate than having Samuel or Sirius coming to collect her in case her father had questions.
Olivia, of course, was more than happy to collect Lily. Harry even wrote a parchment that told the secret of Grimmauld Place. Olivia left and went to collect Lily, leaving Harry to spend time with his son and daughter.
Harry didn't know much about raising children. He wasn't sure about what to buy them. Artemis didn't mind what he got his children. He didn't have to get them anything. At least she didn't want him to.
His daughter Reina took a liking to him. If anything, she would quickly fall asleep in arms as she could cuddle up with him. Artemis would beam with pride as Harry was proving to be a good parent.
They already had trouble.
Barely a week past since the Hogwarts term ended, and the Daily Prophet launch a smear campaign against Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore. Harry was now being called the 'Boy-Who-Lies.'
Sirius attempted to stop it when he spoke to the Daily Prophet, but they claim they were getting their facts from a trustworthy source.
Harry knew, of course, who the trustworthy source was reporting to the Daily Prophet, the office of the Ministry of Magic.
Isabelle Morgan, however, was the one to end the slanders and force the Daily Prophet to write a retraction.
In the House of Lords meeting, Isabelle Morgan stated that the Minister of Magic was a threat to public safety. She was publicly pointing out that he brought a Dementor in the middle of the Third Task near children. She asked for his dismal and the House of Lords all except House Malfoy, and Nott agreed. Fudge tried to appeal it, and it was brought before the House of Commons.
It was a close vote. Fudge was nearly voted out of office.
Isabelle Morgan, however, was proving why she was a Slytherin and an influential member of the Black Family. She spoke to Fudge in private. No one knows what was said. Fudge was sweating at the end of the conversation. However, Fudge did get the last word. Warning Isabelle Morgan, it would be wise to cut ties to Harry Potter when he claims to have powerful friends still, and he was the one with the power of the Ministry behind him.
"What did he mean, he has powerful friends?" Harry asks as Isabelle Morgan reports her meeting with Fudge.
"I doubt he's talking about Lucius Malfoy. Fudge needs Lucius gold to keep him in office. No, he is talking about that many people he's invested in are backing him. He's done much to build a powerful circle." Isabelle said.
Harry twirled his wand in his hand and was thinking carefully.
"Find out who his supporters are. Destroy their reputation and name. When the time comes to remove Fudge, I want there to be no one in his corner." Harry said.
"Already on it. House Black has many people who owe them favors. Sirius may not use the full power of House Black, but I do. I'm calling in all sorts of favor to dig up some dirt as much as possible. There is one thing I did find out that would be interesting," said Isabelle.
"What's that?"
"Fudge owes several notable people large amounts of gold. When he was running for office, no one would lend him any support. So he borrowed gold from numerous people and parties. He has yet to pay them back. Though if my sources said is true, he is using the funding from the Ministry of Magic to pay them off." Isabelle said.
"Which I'm assuming is highly illegal," Harry said.
"Very much so. It's on grounds for theft, so he will spend ten years in Azkaban if convicted." Isabelle said.
"Though it's nothing solid is it. Meaning that you haven't acted on this information. Is there a way we can use this?" Harry asks.
"We can ask for the documents and taxes of the Ministry to find out where the gold has been spent. Fudge seems to get large amounts of gold, but where it goes is a question. I can also start freezing the assets of the Ministry of Magic." Isabelle said.
Harry gives her a sharp look.
"How?" Harry asks.
"House Potter controls more than sixty percent of Gringotts treaties. Including many of the Ministry Treasury. I don't like dealing with Goblins, but in this case, we have Gringotts freeze the Ministry's accounts and force Fudge to look for alternative sources. Though there aren't many others that have a stable income like Gringotts." Isabelle said.
"Could we do more. Like, have Gringotts freeze the banks of all Ministry of Magic employees. At the same time, slip into the papers that Fudge borrowed a large amount of gold from Gringotts, and until he pays it back, the accounts will be frozen." Harry said.
"A muggle tactic?" Isabelle Morgan asks.
"Yeah," Harry said, remembering all those spy movies Dudley use to watch.
"I'll see what I can do. Be warned, Goblin is tricky to deal with, and sometimes theirs always a catch when dealing with them." Isabelle said.
"They are still declaring neutrality?" Harry said.
"Afraid so. They won't choose any side unless they have something to gain from the side," said Isabelle.
"See what they want in return. The sooner we get Fudge out of office, the better," said Harry.
"I never like Fudge. He was never intelligent. The man had trouble standing in his own shadow. Lately, it's been different. Now he's acting like he's so important and he's so clever. As long as he holds the position Minister of Magic, he will be difficult to deal with as he will veto all our actions. Truth is we need a better Ministry in these dark times," said Isabelle.
"Who do you recommend?" Harry asks.
Isabelle sits back with her eyes closed. She was like this for several minutes before she opens her eyes again.
"Truth to be told. I don't know who we can turn to that would be a good Minister. Lately, the Ministry of Magic has been having a power play going on. No one has the strength of character to do what is necessary to fight the Dark Lord and his Death Eaters. Barty Crouch Sr. brutal tactics in the previous war gain him popularity, but he's dead. The only thing we need is the Department of Law on our side. Thankful thanks to the Old Guard and Alastor Moody, almost all the Auror's are on our side. However, this time, it would appear we can't operate in the open. We are going to be more of an underground resistance." Isabelle said.
Harry said nothing.
"What is the stance of the other Great Houses?" Harry asks.
"House Potter and House Black are standing united. That's a given. We know House Malfoy and Nott have already declared themselves for the Dark Lord. House Longbottom is also giving us our support. Houses Abbott, Bones, Jones and Smith have yet to decide. Most likely, they don't want to admit that the Dark Lord has returned. Yet even I notice they're taking precautions." Isabelle said.
"What of the Greengrass?" Harry asked.
"They are unknown. Lord Marcus Greengrass's younger brother, Daniel Greengrass, is a convicted Death Eater. So dealing with them is tricky." Isabelle Morgan said.
"Meaning that Marcus Greengrass himself could be a Death Eater. Yet he wasn't at the graveyard." Harry said.
"I don't know. That family does have a dark history. Some of its family members are well known dark wizards. Almost as bad as the Black Family." Isabelle Morgan said.
Harry knew, of course, what she meant. Even her cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange née Black, was a notorious Death Eater. Sirius's younger brother Regulus join the Death Eaters.
"I know his daughter, Daphne. She has been my friend through thick and skin. She supported me during the Chamber of Secrets and the Triwizard Tournament. She's proven to be a real friend to me." Harry said.
"Even so. I would advise caution." Isabelle Morgan said.
Harry nods his head.
The front door opens, and Olivia walks in with Lily. Isabelle stood up and disappeared up the stairs. Her part done, she knew she had to act on what Harry wanted.
"What is this place?" Lily asks. Unlike the Burrow, the Weasley home, which was rundown and forced to have magic hold the house together. Grimmauld Place looks newer and more magical than the Burrow.
"This is my home," Harry said. He stood up and looks at Lily. The last time they were together, they nearly went all the way. Lily was grinding herself on his cock, teasing him as she kissed him.
"I'll show you your room," Olivia said. Lily follows Olivia dragging her trunk in the process. The door opens again, and a clunking sound could be heard with every off step.
Mad-Eye Moody walks in, limping on his leg.
"Taking security a bit serious, I see," Hary said as a Kreacher walks up with a tray in his hands and gives Harry a butterbeer. "Thanks, Kreacher," Harry said as Kreacher walks off.
"I'm here to relay a message," Moody said.
Harry raised an eyebrow as he takes a chug of his butterbeer.
"We've found potential allies. Dumbledore wants them to move into Grimmauld Place for the remainder of the summer. A caretaker if you will."
"Why would I care?" Harry said as he takes another sip.
"It's the Weasley's," said Moody.
Harry paused a bit before he lowers his butterbeer.
"You're going to have to explain," Harry said.
"I know you don't have a good history with the Weasley's. Their home was attacked as Death Eaters burn it down. It's being repaired, but they need a place to stay. Dumbledore offered them to stay here." Moody said.
"Why should I accept. I'm not on good terms with that family, not to mention we're nearly filled up with several families living here full time. The Weasley's have about nine people. That's pushing this manor housing to the limits." Harry said.
"Dumbledore is offering you a trade. If you allow the Weasley's to stay here, he will give you rare books on powerful magic that you can't learn anywhere." Moody said.
"What kind of books?" Harry asks.
Moody pulls out his wands and waves it. He conjures several books that bore no titles that appeared on the table. Harry reaches up and picks up the top one and opens it. Already Harry could see the spell was something you couldn't find elsewhere. The spell was about conjuring magical silver chains, That was capable of placing a powerful magical restraint on the target, where another witch or wizard or magical creatures or a building.
Harry turns the page and sees the next spell would dispel the person's magical core for a short time. Making them incapable of using magic.
Harry knew learning these spells would be a plus for him.
Harry realized that Dumbledore knew he would crave in for these books. Yet Dumbledore already knew the answer.
"Fine, they can stay, but if they cause trouble, they're out," Harry said.
Moody nods his head in understanding. He turns and limps his way out of the house.
Harry grabs the books and walks up the stairs into his room. He sets the books down and sighs.
He would end up seeing Percy and Ron Weasley for the summer. Percy, who had a sick obsession with Artemis. Then there was Ron. Who would spend most of his summer days telling his family what a dark and evil wizard because that's how he wished to see Harry.
Then there was Ginny Weasley. The girl had a sick obsession with him as well and believed that she would end up marrying him. Harry didn't like Ginny Weasley, nor did he have any desire to be with her.
Harry puts his book down on his dresser, knowing he was going to go over them later. Judging from the spells, they were abilities that weren't listed anywhere.
It was strange for Harry, being the wartime commander for his Vassals. Even though his Vassals were doing most of the work, they still turn to Harry about what should be done. Harry was young and inexperienced. And yet, his Vassals all assisted him with the role of leadership.
Samuel was dealing House of Lords as was Isabelle. Olivia was trying to recruit Healers to their cause. Healers she knew they could trust. Henry Morgan, along with his son Edward was boosting their stock supplies of magical items. The Pierce were gathering food supplies that they would need in case they were forced into hiding.
Fudge may be in denial, but that didn't mean Harry was stupid. Once Voldemort was revealed to the public, the Ministry of Magic would do anything to kiss Harry's ass. Only, he wouldn't be so keen on forgiving them.
Harry turns and decides to check in on Lily.
Harry knocks and enters her room. Lily was digging inside her trunk, and Harry stares at her ass. It was so tight and firm. Lily looks back, and she seemed to have realized Harry was staring at her ass.
"Harry, what brings you here?" Lily asks as she closes her trunk.
Their make-out session on the train seemed almost like a lifetime ago. Harry walks up to her and wraps his arms around her waist. Lily turns her head to look at Harry. Harry presses his cock against her ass, and he knew she could feel it.
Lily didn't turn him away or reject him. If anything, she returns his embrace and holds his hand with her right as she moves her left hand up to touch his face. Harry reaches down and unbuttons her pants.
The moment her pants had an opening, Harry reaches down and starts fingering her pussy.
Lily was panting and enjoying the attention.
"Master," Kreacher said as he knocks on the door. "The Weasley family has arrived," With his piece said, Kreacher turns to continue to care for the House of Black.
"I'll be right down," said Harry.
Harry withdraw his fingers and turns to leave. Not before slapping Lily's ass.
"Get dressed," Harry said as Lily smiles.
Harry turns to leave, leaving Lily to fix herself and make herself presentable.
Harry walks down the stairs and could see Mrs. Weasley hugging Sirius for his hospitality. The rest of the Weasley's were carrying their trunks, and alongside them was Hermione Granger.
"Mom, you should feel the carpet. It feels like heaven. Also, I bet that's real gold too." Ron said in excitement as he looks a the chandelier.
Harry walks down the stairs.
"I see you got here safely," Harry said as he made his presence known.
"POTTER!" Ron bellowed at the top of his voice. "What are you doing here?" He demanded.
"For your information Weasley, I live here. This is my home. Dumbledore offered me a deal to allow your family to stay here. So you're a guest in this home," Harry said in a dull voice.
"Thank you so much. It will be about two or three months until our home is fixed up." Mrs. Weasley said.
In other words, they were going to be here all summer.
"Keep in mind that you have to behave while you're here," Harry said. "I'm doing this as a favor to Dumbledore. If you misbehave or cause trouble, I'm kicking you out in a heartbeat." Harry said.
"Why do you get to decided." Ron snarled.
"Because I'm the one who controls the wards of this home. I get the final say of what goes on in my home. Don't bother looking to Sirius, he may be my guardian, but even he can't overrule me." Harry said.
Harry paused as he looks at the Weasley family. Harry could see two Weasley males he did not know, most likely the firstborns Bill and Charlie. The Twins walked in, holding brand new trunks compare to their families beaten and broken down versions. Ron and Ginny followed in the rear. Ron was stuffing his face with food and had his arms not given care in the world what's around him.
"Where is Percy?" Harry asks, wondering where the second-most hated Weasley was located.
At the mention of Percy, Mrs. Weasley seemed to have lost her grip and drops her trunk. She was on the verge of tears.
"He's… not coming." Bill said in a slow voice.
Harry was surprised by this piece of news. There was a falling out with Percy and the rest of the family.
"Is this for sure. I don't want him coming by later to harass Artemis," Harry said in a stern voice.
"Trust me. He's not coming. He doesn't know we're here," said Bill.
Harry nods his head in understanding. This made things slightly more comfortable.
"Yes, well," Mrs. Weasley began. "Let's get settle in and find ourselves a room."
"I'm afraid you're all going to have to make your way up to the fourth floor. The second and third floor is already occupied," Harry said to the Weasley's.
The twins were the first to go up the stairs, followed by Bill and Charlie. One by one, they all went up the stairs. Though Ginny batted her eyelashes as she walks past Harry. Harry wasn't impressed, nor did he enjoy the youngest Weasley attempts at flirting with him.
Though his mind went back to Lily and wonder what their relationship was now.
Harry returns to his spot and sits down. He pulls out his book and begins to read.
Harry was reading well past the day when the front door opens again.
Harry looks up to see Samuel Wynter walking in.
"Busy day?" Harry asks.
"Very much so," Samuel said as he puts away his cloak.
"Fudge attempted to seize emergency powers?" Harry asked.
"He did indeed. He made a nice long speech about the security of the Ministry and how safety was important. Different from his usual speeches. As expected, many in Great Lords asked what kind of danger was there for him to be granted emergency powers. He tried to claim that Dumbledore was a threat to the Ministry, and he was seeking to overpower the Ministry of Magic. The Great Lords voted no for Fudge's request," said Samuel.
"Anything different about Fudge or his staff?" Harry asks, wondering about the sudden change.
"Only one. The Weasley, who recent was Crouch's assistant. Weatherby, I believe Crouch called him. Not sure of his real name. But he was beside Fudge. From what I understand, he was promoted."
This was interesting. So Percy Weasley was no working directly out of the office of the Ministry of Magic. Given his hatred for Harry, he was no doubt telling Fudge all sorts of things about his belief in Harry. Also, Harry was more than confident that Percy was the one who wrote that speech.
"He still fancy's Artemis," Harry said.
"That is disturbing. Given how the boy is and his family, I do not want him as a son-in-law." Samuel said.
Harry chuckles. "Neither does Artemis. She doesn't like him either." Harry said.
"Olivia should be back soon. Then we can eat dinner." Samuel said. He turns to leave.
"The Weasley's are here," said Harry.
Samuel stops in his tracks and looks back at Harry.
"I'm sorry," said Samuel, asking for Harry to explain himself.
"Dumbledore asked me to let them stay here for the summer in exchange for a few favors. They're all here except that Percy Weasley. They should be staying on the fourth floor. Though I already warn them if they cause trouble, I'll be kicking them out. I'm just letting you know so you won't be surprised when you see them here." Harry said.
"A few favors from Dumbledore. I can understand that's not easy to acquire. Let's pray; they don't do anything that disrupts us. Also, warn Olivia and Artemis, will you; I don't want a duel to erupt because Olivia thinks there are intruders in our home." Samuel said.
"I will," Harry said. Samuel nods his head and heads up the stairs.
Harry returns to reading and continues to read.
A few minutes later, the door opens again.
Harry looks up to see Olivia and Artemis hanging their cloaks. Artemis walks over and slumps down on the couch.
"I hate Percy Weasley." She said.
"I've already warned security. He won't show up again," Olivia said in reassurance to her daughter.
"What happened?" Harry asks, knowing this wasn't going to break the news any better.
"Percy decided to visit me at Saint Mungos. He really wouldn't leave me alone. He kept going on about I should leave your side and join him. The Ministry of Magic would soon punish you. He claims he didn't want me caught in the crossfire, but I would be better off with him now that he was Junior Assistant to the Minister," explains Artemis.
"He doesn't take a hint, does he," said Harry.
"He will not show up again. Security will not allow him to enter Saint Mungo's again." Olivia said.
"Let me guess you cursed him," Harry said with a grin as he looks at Olivia.
"I was close to. In the end, several Healers and Security had to remove him from the building. I also warned him not to return unless he needed healing attention. He did say something, though. That our days were numbered." Olivia said.
"Does this mean the Minister of Magic will control Saint Mungo's?" Harry said.
"That would be irregular. Saint Mungo's is completely independent with no ownership. The Twelve High Healers run Saint Mungo's," Olivia said.
"How does the hierarchy of Healers work?" Harry asks. It was something he's never really interested in before.
"Well, everyone starts as an Acolyte. Acolytes normally last a year. It requires a lot of studying and practice. Once you complete your healer exam, you become an apprentice. This is normally done by following a senior healer around and learning from them. After apprentice, you become a junior healer. This allows you to work with patients on your own. Though you will still be under a senior healer or chief healer. After you graduate from the junior healer, you become a resident healer. This allows you to have your patients and make your own decisions. You should be experienced enough to handle your patients. After resident healer, you are a senior healer. More responsibilities and care. In this situation, you are also responsible for training new healers. Then it's Chief Healer. Chief Healers are normally responsible for an entire floor, and they specialize in certain types of magic. After Chief, it's High Healers. High Healers are those who control the Sanctum and have a say over the entire staff. While anyone can reach this rank, only twelve can sit at the Healer Board of Directors." Olivia said.
"Like you," Harry said.
"I was a prodigy in the healing arts. Everyone recognized my skills. Also, I have good judgment skills when it comes to healing others."
"So, back to my question. Will Fudge do something that will make your jobs difficult?" Harry asks.
"Possibly. Fudge will need to offer loads of gold to get me fired, though. Plus, I have insurance in place if something does happen to me, Saint Mungo's will have to pay heavy fines, and they don't want to do that. Plus, it would be a severe blow. Other Sanctums will seek me out for my knowledge and experience." Olivia said. "It would be a devastating loss for Briton's healing community if I left."
Harry was sure. Olivia was well like and had strong connections.
"Let's put our things away, then we can have dinner," Olivia said as she stood up.
"There is something I need to tell you," Harry said.
"Is it good news?" Artemis said.
"Well," Harry began not sure where to begin.
"Oh, hello," Hermione said. They all turn to her as she was at the bottom of the stairs.
"Hermione Granger," Artemis said. "What are you doing here?"
"Long story short. Some Death Eaters attacked the Weasley's home, and they needed a new place to stay. Dumbledore offered me a few favors in return for taking them in." Harry said.
"And you agreed," Artemis said with a raised eyebrow.
"I can understand getting a few favors from the Headmaster. Normally it's people who owe him favors." Olivia said.
"Wait, Harry, you said the Weasley's home was attacked. Does that mean?" Artemis said with a hint of dread in her voice.
"The Weasley's are going to be staying with us for the summer," Harry said, hiding behind his book.
Artemis paled greatly. Harry knew, of course, what was on her mind.
"Rest assure. He's not here. He doesn't know about this place." Harry said. Artemis lets out a breath of relief. "Percy had a falling out with his family and is on his own now," Harry said.
"That's good," Artemis said as she relaxes a bit.
"You don't like Percy?" Hermione said in surprise.
"Make no mistake, Granger. He would rape me the first chance he would get." Artemis said.
Hermione's face paled. She always thought Percy was a gentleman and followed every rule.
"Surely, you're mistaken. Percy would never…"
"I'm fully serious. Percy Weasley wouldn't hesitate. He would rape me the first chance he would get." Artemis said.
Hermione looked somewhat troubled.
"He's not here. And I've already given warning to the Weasley's if they cause trouble I won't hesitate in kicking them out." Harry said.
Artemis said nothing. She merely looks a bit gloomy at the thought of the Weasley's being inside her home.
"They better not cause trouble," Artemis said.
"Relax. I still control the wards and zone of this place. The moment they cross a line, they're out." Harry said.
"In times of war, these things tend to happen," Olivia said wisely. She looks at Harry carefully. "Do you believe it would be wiser to stick together?"
"Given what happened in the previous war, I say it would be better off if we stick together. Even though we're better prepared, I think being together means we'll survive better." Harry said.
Artemis nods her head. Olivia did, as well. Harry knew if there were a problem, they would tell him instantly.
"The Weasley's are on the Fourth Floor. So they shouldn't be bothering us as much." Harry said.
Artemis gets up and kisses Harry on the lips. Harry could see out of the corner of his eye; Granger was shocked by this behavior. No doubt, she disapproves.
Artemis breaks the kiss, and she goes up the stairs with her mother.
"What is it, Granger?" Harry said as he opens his book and goes back to his reading.
"You're not supposed to…" Hermione began.
"What… kiss a young woman to whom I have feelings for?" Harry said as he looks at Granger with a hard look. "You've never been in a relationship Granger, what makes you an expert?" Harry demands.
Hermione was silent as she looks at Harry.
"What are you going to do, Granger? Tell Mrs. Weasley. Go ahead. The moment Mrs. Weasley attempts to belittle me, I'm kicking the Weasley's out of here. Do not forget this is my home. You are a guest. And the only reason why you are here is that I'm doing this as a favor towards Dumbledore. You are not my mother, nor are you a parent. So you cannot say what I can and cannot do. Also, the final decision on whom I'm with, rest with me. Not you. This is why no one likes you, Granger. Because you try to control others, it's why you have no friends. Now leave me, I have other things on my mind then to talk with a brainless mudblood." Harry said. With that said, Harry returns to his book.
Hermione quickly runs back up the stairs.
Harry turned the page of his book and knew he ended up hurting Granger's feelings. He usually didn't call muggle-born students mudblood, but Granger was deserved no less. She was the type to stick her nose in everything and correct people. This was no different. She disapproved of Artemis' relationship with him and was trying to correct him about it. The sooner she learns that she can't control everything, the easier she'll have in life.
If she had found out that Harry fathered Artemis children, then she would raise a fuss. She would bitch and whine and tell everyone she could.
Harry was certain the moment she did blab her mouth; he would curse her into oblivion. He didn't want Voldemort targeting his children. Hermione may be intelligent, but she was also foolish. Like Percy Weasley, she lived in a world of rules and didn't understand how to value friendships, nor did she understand relationships.
Harry likes Artemis because she didn't chase after him because of his fame. They spent a lot of time together at Hogwarts, and she taught him much about the magical world. Not to mention, the two shared much in common. Harry didn't regret being with Artemis, even if she was older than him.
However, now, the relationship with Lily was in question.
Harry knew he was a playboy.
Cho Chang.
Daphne Greengrass.
He's slept with both girls multiple times throughout last year.
Now he was pushing things with Lily.
Harry felt more relax with Lily than the other girls he's been around. Harry couldn't wait to get Lily in bed. Just from the feel of fingering her, he was to enjoy his time with her.
Harry puts his book aside and enters the dining room. The house-elves all were putting food on the table, and Harry could hear everyone starting to come down. All the adults except Artemis apparated down in the dining hall and began to take their seats. Lily comes down, and immediately, she takes her place next to Harry.
The twins didn't eat with them yet. Artemis fed them at a different time than when they ate. They had a couple of house-elves watching them discreetly. While House Elves wouldn't harm them, the babies may not be able to handle their faces just yet. Olivia told him newborns face take in the faces of the family and relatives first before others. At nearly four months old, they were starting to get old enough not to rely on Artemis breast milk, but they still craved their mother's breastmilk.
Artemis was also amazing. Within a couple of months of giving birth to the twins, Artemis lost all her baby fat. She returns with that slim body of hers.
The Weasley's all came down, with Fred and George apparating next to their mother to annoy her. She yells at them as they take off to the dining room. They've done this before. Mrs. Weasley was barking at them, telling them to be more responsible.
Harry sits down as Sirius begins to pile his plate with food.
Harry sits and piles his plate with food. Harry and the Vassals on one side of the table, with the Weasley's on the other side of the table.
Ron would send Harry a hateful glare every once in a while. But he was stuffing his face with food and eating like a pig as he usually does. Already food crumbs were displaying themselves all over his front robes.
"Don't you have any manners?" Artemis said as she was sitting across from Ron. The rest of the Vassals look at Ron with disgust in their eyes. Artemis had a hard time eating with Ron devouring everything in front of him.
"What?" Ron said with his mouth full of food. Bits of food spat out of his mouth as he spoke.
"I don't want them dining with us anymore," Artemis said as she grabs her plate and walks up the stairs.
"Then, they won't," Harry said.
Mrs. Weasley wasn't pleased. She slaps Ron in the back of his head, and he coughs and chokes from all the food in his mouth. He spits out his food and looks at his mother.
"What was that for?" Ron demanded.
Harry and his vassal, unfortunately, couldn't eat anymore. They all threw their napkins down and got up. They took their plates and goblets and went back upstairs.
Lily grabs her food and goblet and walks alongside Harry.
The Weasley's were left behind with the food.
"Get the food, and don't let them have it." Harry orders to the House Elves.
They nod their heads and quickly enter the dining room to secure the food. Ron could be seen trying to grab as much as he could as the House Elves secure the food.
Mrs. Weasley was harping at her son for his bad table manners. Ron merely sat there, fuming at the thought he couldn't get the delicious food he wanted. The food was almost as good as Hogwarts food.
Harry walks up the stairs with his goblet. He drank from it and knew if he were hungry, he'd get some food later. Right now, he didn't have an appetite. Ron Weasley's disgusting table manners ruin the chance to eat any food at the moment.
"Want to sleep in my room?" Harry asks Lily.
Lily turns to look at him as she had her hands on the door.
"Sure," Lily said with a smile.
Harry smiles and waves his hand. He secures the kitchen to ensure Ron Weasley wouldn't eat all their food. He was sure if Ron knew where the Kitchens where at Hogwarts, he would feast his days in there and hardly ever come out. He gave access to the kitchen to Sirius and the rest of his Vassals.
Harry enters his room and takes off his clothes. He walks over to the fountain and puts his goblet inside. He drinks the cold refreshing water that quenches his thirst. Summer days were hard for him because of his element. Yet this was the type when Lily was at her peak.
Lily walks into the room and closes the door. Harry puts his goblet down next to his bed. He quickly climbs into the cover as Lily takes off her clothes. She was wearing black underwear and bra before she climbs into bed with Harry and looks at him.
Harry reaches out and holds her close.
Lily snuggles up to him, and she closes her eyes as they prepare to sleep. Harry holds and knew that he was glad to have Lily with him.
Author Notes: How do you like the chapter? I'm holding off the sex between Lily and Harry for a while. For one, his Vassals and Sirius wouldn't care. It would cause problems if the Weasley's knew.
A Magical house has two magical settings. Wards and Zone. Wards are magical defensives to protect the home from creatures, spells, or detection. Wards typically surround the home. A zone is the inside of the Household. Like the Kitchen, Dining Room, Library, Bedroom. The Head or Owner holds the Gold Key and controls everything in the household. Including the Furniture, Food, the House Elves, and other rights to access rooms. Silver Keys are below gold keys. It doesn't give control of the Zone, but it does provide them with access to the zone and its area. Bronze keys are generally for guests and visitors. They can only enter an area with a gold key user gives them.
How do you guys like these settings? I admit I took it from Star Wars, the Old Republic The Guild Flagship. Beneficial setting.
