A Curse of Ancients
C27: Easter Break Surprise
Standard Disclaimer: I don't own any of the recognizable characters
A couple of weeks later the entire family stepped out of the Floo in Black Manor, everyone glad to be home for a little bit with Easter coming up, and before the entire family would be thrust into the madness of war preparations.
"It feels good to be home again. I've missed it a little." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
Pandora smiled and kissed her lover softly. "Only a little? I know how much you love the comforts of home." The blonde said with a smile.
Bellatrix smiled and kissed her. "You are all the home I have ever needed Panny, especially everything is now out in the open." She said as she pulled Luna and Fabian into her side.
The siblings smiled at her as Hermione molded herself against Morgana's side, with Dora and Fleur being in a similar position with Andromeda. "You know, it just occurred to me that every one of the sisters has at least two children now. It's sweet." Hermione said with a soft smile.
"Soon there will be another one added to the family. I received a letter from Gabby yesterday." Fleur said softly.
Fabian smiled at her. "I think we can arrange to bring her here today. If that's okay with you of course, Mom."
"You're the Head of the family, sweetie. These decisions are yours alone now." Bellatrix said with a smile.
He smiled and pressed a kiss to her cheek. "I know, but I want everyone to be okay with this. I will not be like grandfather and force my beliefs upon everyone."
Bellatrix smiled at that. "Then we'll get the mill started sweetie, or at least Cissy will, because I have a feeling Gabrielle will be a better fit with Cissy and Lily."
Narcissa smiled at that. "Then Fleur and I will figure out a way to bring Gabrielle here today. Do we have any Portkeys available for traveling such a long distance?"
Andromeda nodded at him. "We do, but I think there might be an easier way, right love?"
Morgana smiled and nodded. "I can easily bring you and Fleur to wherever it is you need to go. It will be safer and easier."
Fleur smiled at them. "There will be no need. Gabrielle is waiting at the Ministry departure point for Fabian to pick her up, apparently the mother of her best friend did her a favor and got her processed with priority."
He nodded and smiled at her. "Then I will go and pick her up, but aren't you coming with me? I figure that she will want to see you."
Fleur smiled at him. "She specifically requested it would be only you to pick her up. I don't know why, but I will certainly ask her when I see her later today."
He just smiled and gave his fiancee a kiss before he made his way to the Floo again.
The minute he was swept up in the green flames, everyone turned to Fleur. "So dear, what did you have planned for your sister, since she is already a part of the family."
Fleur smiled at her. "I want to give her everything that she could never be while under my mother's roof. She's always had a mischievous streak and I am sure she is going to flourish under your tutelage. She just needs a guiding hand in life and I think that she will be a fast favorite in bed as well. She is Half Veela after all."
"Under my tutelage, she is going to be a lady. I do hope you know that Fleur." Narcissa said haughtily.
Lily smiled at her lover. "But Cissy, I thought you liked a bit of mischief. Why else would you go commando today?" She said with a soft purr.
Narcissa blushed at that, much to the amusement of the others in the room. "Your paramour is right Cissy, you can't preach ladylike behavior when you can't even be bothered to wear underwear, or were you hoping to have our son alone for a bit?" Bellatrix asked with a grin.
"No Bella, I'm quite fine in that regard. I am merely worried about the image it might portray." Narcissa said softly.
Bellatrix smiled at her. "I'm sure it will be fine Cissy, Dora and Fabian were also quite mischievous in their youth and both have turned out well. I am sure Gabrielle will flourish under your wing while we also let her have her freedom."
"If I may Narcissa, Gabrielle knows perfectly well when to be a lady and when it is appropriate to let her Veela side shine through a little. The Delacours are a lot like the Blacks in that aspect." Fleur said with a soft smile.
Narcissa smiled at her. "I know, but I can't help but worry, the last thing I think we all want is to let everything we've worked for go to hell again."
"It won't Cissa, we'll make sure of that. What's this really about? I can see there is something else going on." Hermione said softly.
Narcissa sighed softly. "It's all going so quickly that I am worried about the aftermath. Just look at the state of the family. We've almost tripled in not even a year's time. It's all going too fast."
Hermione smiled at her. "Come Cissa, let's take a walk." She said with a soft smile.
Narcissa nodded and linked her arms with those of the brunette as they walked outside. "Now that we are alone, tell me what is bothering you. I've never seen you so insecure."
"I honestly can't put my finger on it Hermione. I'm just scared of such rapid changes I suppose. It's been just the five of us against everyone for so long that I have trouble wrapping my head around everything. I guess I'm just not ready for a new world." Narcissa said softly.
Hermione smiled and sat them down near Gaia's grove. "Cissy, I promise that nothing will have to change for our family. If all goes to plan, and I know it will, there will be a Minister we can trust to lead everything in the direction we desire. Both Fabian and I have no desire to be Minister for at least a few decades."
Narcissa smiled and pulled the brunette into her arms. "I know Hermione, but I can't help but worry for the future now that all of my children are so deep in it."
"This is about Draco then?" Hermione asked softly.
She nodded at her young charge. "Let me tell you Cissa, Draco is doing a lot better now that the Cabinets are ready, and of course we will do everything to keep him safe. Perhaps you should talk to him when we get back to school."
Narcissa smiled at her. "I will. Perhaps I've been worrying for nothing. I just want to keep the family safe."
Hermione smiled and pressed a soft kiss to the blonde's cheek. "I know you do, and I can only commend you for the way you have done that so far, and I promise you here and now, that we will do everything to make sure everyone will get through this conflict unharmed. All you need to do is trust me."
"I do trust you Hermione, and I hope you'll forgive a mother's worry." Narcissa said softly.
Hermione smiled and kissed the blonde. "Of course Cissa. You don't need to apologize, least of all to me. I couldn't understand the worry you must feel not to have just one but all of your children so close to the conflict."
Narcissa smiled at the young witch, the two staying there for a little while longer so Narcissa could get everything out and they would return to the house with their hearts cleansed.
…
When Fabian stepped back out of the Floo with Gabrielle by his side, the petite blonde had to smile at the sight that greeted her. Her sister in the arms of a beautiful pink haired witch and her friends cuddled up to each other in the couch. "Gabby, ma petite. It's good to see you again." Fleur said with a soft smile as she hugged the shorter blonde.
Gabrielle smiled and wrapped her arms around her sister, sobbing softly as all the emotions of the last months broke free. "Fleur, I'm so sorry. I should've listened to you."
"Shh, it's okay Gabby. You're here now and no one will ever hurt you again, but I am curious why it could only be Fabian that could come and get you." Fleur said softly.
Gabrielle smiled a teary smile at her sister. "He had to sign some documents because I am essentially a foreign refugee, and because I am apparently already adopted by the family, he had to clarify some things."
Fleur smiled and pressed a kiss to the top of her head. "I understand, and I'm glad you're here. I trust you remember what I told you?"
She nodded at her sister. "I do, but I am curious about what this all entails. You weren't exactly big on details."
Fleur smiled at that. "Take a seat Gabby, and Fabian and Bellatrix will enlighten you."
She nodded and took a seat next to Lily, who smiled at the young blonde as Narcissa and Hermione walked back into the house. "A mother, right on time. Your daughter has arrived." Fabian said with a smile.
Narcissa smiled and took a seat next to the young blonde. "Good morning Gabrielle, I'm Narcissa Black, and I want to welcome you to the family."
Gabrielle smiled at her. "Thank you Ms. Black. It is certainly a warm welcome."
"Please sweetie, call me mother or Narcissa., if you want to of course. There is no pressure." Narcissa said sweetly.
Gabrielle smiled at that. "I'll try, mother."
Narcissa smiled and pulled the blonde into her side. "Well, my flower, we truly have the daughters we always talked about."
Lily smiled and kissed her softly as she pulled Ginny tighter to her, while Luna took a seat next to Bellatrix.
"Now that everyone has settled, I believe I need to tell our new sister a story. I won't bore you with the full history, but the short story is that a Dragon from Morgana's time placed a Curse on our family that states that the firstborn man of a generation has to have sex with every female member of the family, and since my uncle Sirius and Regulus were passed over because they were exiled from the family, it fell upon me. The women in the house feel the need to satiate the Curse at least once a month, even more so if they're especially amorous, so I expect you to be similarly affected as Fleur. If you ignore it, you will notice a slow loss of sanity, followed by insanity and eventually death, and the same goes for me as well. It will probably occur that you will feel the need to act a certain way with us, and I just want to say that it is something every woman in the house goes through. Also, because of the fact Hermione is bonded to me through Prophecy, or rather I am bonded to her, she was put on an equal standing, so if you ever feel the strain and I am not available, Hermione can also calm the effects of the Curse. There is one night a year however, where this is not the case, but since we've recently dealt with that, I will tell you that when the time comes." He said with a kind smile.
Gabrielle nodded and smiled. "I understand, and I will come to you or Hermione when the need arises. Are there any signs of the Curse manifesting?"
"There are and they are fairly easy to tell. You will feel incredibly horny and nothing you do for yourself will have any effect." Hermione said with a soft smile.
Gabrielle blushed a little, but smiled at her. "At least I know what to look out for."
Everyone smiled at her. "It might be a lot the first time, but you'll get used to it soon. Now, we do need to talk about your future a little bit. Obviously we can't have you enroll in Hogwarts this year, but I think between everyone here we can make up for the rest of your studies for the year, especially since Fabian and Hermione have decided not to finish the year and they can tutor you on the things you might need help with. Next year we'll see how everything stands." Narcissa said kindly.
"To be honest I was following a few advanced classes at Beauxbatons, and I am already done with this year's material. I would love to get a head start on next year though." Gabrielle said with a soft smile.
"We can arrange that Gabrielle, but all that can wait for a bit, how about we spend the rest of the day getting to know each other, chances are you are going to get to know everyone very intimately soon enough after all." Bellatrix said with a smile.
The petite blonde nodded and smiled at the raven haired witch, cuddling a bit closer to her newfound mother as she answered all questions that were send her way without reservations, already feeling a lot more comfortable here than she had ever felt in France, even when Fleur still lived at home.
…
Later that night Fabian and Hermione were in bed again, awaiting Luna and Ginny who would join them for tonight. "So love, what really happened at the Ministry? You two took way longer than was necessary."
"I took her to Gringotts too, to make sure she has an equal part of our Vault too, she is a proper Black." He said with a soft smile.
Hermione smiled and kissed him softly. "I figured as much. I know you well enough to know that you wanted to do this properly. I must say that it surprised me how calm she was though. It's almost like she accepted everything before she even got here."
"Fleur had a lot of contact with her sister in the past month and I think that has helped her accept everything. All that remained was to explain the Curse, and she took that as well as Fleur did in the beginning, which I honestly expected. Her experiences have matured her a lot, but I also think we can expect a lot of surprises from little Gabrielle, if those glances she's been giving me are any indication." He said with a soft smile.
Hermione smiled at that. "Your mother and I also had a good talk. She's so worried that everything is going to change dramatically, but I think I managed to settle her mind."
He smiled at her. "Honestly I don't blame her for worrying about everyone. What we're doing is very dangerous and can easily go wrong in so many ways. We have to be extremely careful how we are going to handle everything."
"I know love, and we will be extremely careful. I have a few plans that we are going to discuss when we get back to school, because this break is exactly what we need to let loose before we get thrown into the preparations." She said with a soft smile.
He nodded and kissed her as there was a soft knock on the door. "Come on in girls, we were waiting for you." Hermione said with a soft smile.
Luna and Ginny stepped into the room with a smile, both of them already naked as they crawled into bed with them. "Thank you for letting us sleep with you two tonight. We needed some companionship tonight." Ginny said softly.
Fabian and Hermione smiled at them. "It's okay. You know we never mind it when you two sleep with us. It is comforting for us as well." Hermione said softly.
The two girls smiled at that. "There is one other thing that I need to tell you. After our time together at school, I realized my kink so to speak. I will only be able to fully let go with a woman." Ginny said softly.
Fabian smiled at her. "It's okay Gin, we expected that to be honest, and there is no shame in that. If Hermione is what you need when the Curse hits you, that is just the way it is. All we want is to make it as easy for you as possible."
Ginny smiled at him. "Thank you for understanding Fabian. I'll be honest and say that I was a little nervous about telling you this."
"That I also understand, but aside from Curse Night, I promise you that we will always try and make you feel as comfortable as possible, and if that is what it takes, we will gladly provide that." Fabian said with a soft smile.
Ginny smiled at him as she cuddled into Luna. "That means a lot to me. I was a bit worried about telling you this."
"You can always tell us everything Gin. We will never judge you." Hermione said sweetly.
"I know, but it is all so new to me. I still don't know what is appropriate." The redhead said softly.
He smiled at her. "When it comes to the four of us in the bedroom, nothing is of limits Gin. I have never known you to be shy, so you don't have to start now.
She blushed a little at that as she shared a look with her girlfriend. "It's okay Gin, you know everything what Fabian and I have done, I will never judge you for your sexual wants and needs." Luna said with a soft smile.
Ginny smiled at that. "Would you mind if I slept in Hermione's arms tonight baby? I've been craving her touch."
Luna smiled at her. "Since that would leave me in the arms of my brother, I don't mind, as long as Fabian and Hermione don't mind of course."
"Of course we don't mind. It's been a while for both of you, so if you two are feeling the strain, we don't mind doing whatever it takes to make you two feel better." Hermione said with a soft smile.
Ginny and Luna smiled as Hermione and Luna switched positions, Luna crawling against her brother and Hermione crawling up to Ginny.
"Could we just watch for once, brother? I'm okay still and I really want to see what your fiancee has in store for my girlfriend." Luna asked softly.
He nodded and pulled her against his body. "Of course my Moon, as long as you don't mind me getting a bit handsy while they are getting busy. You know I can never keep my hands to myself when you're naked next to me."
She nodded and lifted her leg slightly, Fabian getting the hint and sliding his cock between her thighs while his hand found purchase on her breast.
Ginny was already laying back with her legs spread wide. "Please Mistress, use my body. I am craving your touch." Ginny said with a soft moan.
Hermione smirked at her. "Patience, my little slut. I intend to take my time with you tonight. I intend to give your lover a show. I bet she can already smell how wet you are."
Ginny pouted and moaned as Hermione gently started teasing her nipples, tying the redhead's hand to the bedpost with a flick of her hand. "Don't pout, otherwise I will have to punish you. You are my plaything for tonight and you will obey everything without complaint. Am I understood?" Hermione asked with a wicked grin.
Ginny nodded vigorously at the brunette. "Yes Mistress. I will obey your every order." She said softly.
Hermione smiled at her. "Good girl, now keep those legs spread and that pussy on display. I want your girlfriend to see what I am going to do to you while she gets fondled by my fiancee."
Again Ginny nodded at her as Hermione slowly started trailing her fingers down the redhead's body, cupping her soaking pussy gently, teasingly sliding her fingers through the soaking folds, making the redhead moan loudly.
Hermione smiled as she heard another soft moan, and looking at Luna she saw how the blonde was unconsciously moving her hips against Fabian while he was gently fingering his sister. She then turned back to Ginny, who was already panting from her teasing. "Perhaps I should show a bit of mercy, would you agree, my little tramp?"
Ginny nodded and moaned as Hermione kissed her way down Ginny's body. "Relax Gin, I'm not really in the mood to be a bitch tonight."
Ginny only moaned as Hermione started eating her out, bringing the redhead to a relaxed climax, Ginny moaning loudly as her hips bucked off the mattress.
Hermione then cuddled back up to the redhead as she kissed her. "Was that to your satisfaction Gin?"
Ginny nodded and cuddled into the brunette, the two watching as Fabian brought Luna to orgasm not much later. "I have to say that was rather tame for you two." She said with a soft smile.
"We were curious how you would act with Hermione, and I can honestly say that you could give Dora a run for her money." He said with a soft smile.
Ginny blushed a little at that. "When I first shared a bed with Hermione and discovered this side of myself, I went to talk to her, and she gave me some advice that I try to embrace in my own way."
He smiled at that. "Perhaps sometime, if you both feel up for it, we could have a slut-off. It's something Dora and I have talked about but never had the chance to try, mostly because the only one who might feel that urge would never want to do that."
Ginny's blush darkened at that. "I would be up for that sometime, when I feel a bit more comfortable in baring myself like that."
"I understand Gin, there's no pressure. I'm not even sure if Dora is still up for it." He said softly.
Ginny only smiled at him as they fell asleep, all of them with soft smiles on their faces.
…
The following day Hermione, Luna and Morgana along with Gaia and Aithusa made their way to the island, stating there were some things they needed to get in order to start planning, which left Fabian at a bit of a loss on what to do, so for once he decided to just stay in bed and just get some much needed rest, even though he knew that his mother would probably come to drag him out of bed at some point.
He was proven right a few minutes later when the door opened, but still being adamant on staying in bed, he didn't turn around to acknowledge whoever entered.
"Young man, there will be plenty of time to be lazy, but now is not the time. You know I have no qualms in dragging you out of bed, regardless of your state of dress." Narcissa said as she took a seat on the edge of the bed.
He grumbled a little as he turned to face her, surprised to see Lily next to her. "But mother, I'm so tired. All these extra women that need to be pleasured are starting to take their toll on me."
They smiled and laid down next to him. "We know sweetie, and I promise that once it is safe to do so, you can sleep in as long as you like. Come here, let mother care for you." She said softly as she flicked her wand to send her dress to a nearby chair, Lily doing the same with a similar smile to Narcissa, the two women gathering him close as they felt him relax against them.
Fabian couldn't help but smile at the position to find himself in. "I've missed this. I had forgotten what it felt like not to have the weight of the world on my shoulders."
They smiled at him. "I'll be very honest and say that I don't envy you and Hermione. Even in the First War we didn't feel this pressure, and those were very dark times. This feels different though, like there are much heavier implications on either victory or defeat." Lily said softly.
"That's probably because there are. If we lose, everything will stay like it is and that is something that cannot happen. The system we have is too biased and eventually unsustainable. This is the only chance we have in our lifetime to make sure the system and the Wizarding World change. It has to happen too because the way things are going will eventually lead to some sort of civil war, where the half bloods and Muggleborns rise up against the Ministry, and they would win that too, which would in turn lead to a collapse of the Wizarding World in Britain." He said softly.
"How do you know all this sweetie?" Narcissa asked softly, not entirely used to hearing him speak so sagely.
He smiled at her. "Luna has seen it. Whatever the Dark Lord had planned in the First War would be nothing to what would happen if the system as it stands now continues to exist. That is why we need to promote equality, to prevent a bigger catastrophe."
Narcissa and Lily shared a look, and the blonde pulled her son against her naked body. "It's admirable that you and Hermione are so invested in a better future, and while I understand your reasoning, I don't understand why you and Hermione put all this pressure on yourselves. Is this because of your Prophecy?"
"That and the fact that we are both way to obsessed with perfection to let anything be left to chance, and add to that the fact that we are both so used to doing everything by ourselves, it will eventually result in some unnecessary stress, all of which of our own making." He said softly.
They two women smiled at that as the door opened to reveal Bellatrix and Pandora. "What's this Cissy, I thought you two were going to see what was keeping him, not join him."
"Hush Bella, our son needs a bit of tender love and care. Why don't you and Pandora join us. I am sure we can come up with a way to get him to relax." Narcissa said with
Bellatrix and Pandora smiled at her before doing exactly that, sending their clothes to another chair before crawling into bed with them, and of course Fabian did the expected thing and cuddled up Pandora. "It seems we've been replaced as favorites, Cissy." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
Pandora smiled at that. "I don't think so Bella, it's just that Fabian and I have always had a special bond, you know that. We're merely making up for lost time, and I think you would agree that we have a lot of time to make up for."
"It's not only that Mom. Mummy has always had the ability to calm me down when I get stuck in my own head, much like Hermione has that ability and that is something I need right now, but I will say that having all four of you here helps me tremendously. Can we stay like this for a while?" He asked softly.
They smiled and nodded as they arranged themselves around him. "Like we would object to being so close to the one man that can satisfy each and every one of us." Lily said with a teasing smile.
Fabian smiled at her. "You four are temptresses, and I think it is impossible for anyone to resist you when any of you turn on the charm, and if we add Mum to that, it becomes impossible to resist you."
They smiled as the door once again opened and Andromeda stepped in, only wearing a thin robe. "I heard there was a young man that needed some Mommy love. Is there room for one more?"
They all smiled and made some room for Andromeda, who shed her robe before crawling into bed with her son and sisters. "So sweetie, what's wrong?" Andromeda asked softly.
"I'm just stressed Mum, everything is going so fast that I am struggling to keep up with all the changes, and if you add the fact that Hermione and I are probably going to be a big part of a necessary overhaul of the Ministry and our community at large. It just gets a bit much sometimes." He said softly.
"You poor thing. I think I may have a way we can make sure you relax. Ladies, shall we revive an old custom?" Andromeda asked softly.
Narcissa, Bellatrix and Pandora nodded at her. "I think we should. It will certainly help to relax our baby, and perhaps it will be beneficial to us as well." Bellatrix said with a soft smile.
"I don't know what you're planning, but I want to help." Lily said softly.
Narcissa smiled and kissed the redhead softly. "You'll love this Lily-flower. We're going to take turns giving Fabian a massage to help him relax, and the objective is to not do the same thing twice, and while this was easier when it was just the three of us, I think having more people here will help him relax even more and bring us all closer together at the same time. We used to do this when we felt Fabian was under a lot of stress."
Lily smiled at that. "Since this is a perfect opportunity for me to bond with our oldest, I'm looking forward to this."
The four women smiled and sat back. "Are you up for Mommy's special massage, my sweet?" Bellatrix asked with a soft smile.
He only nodded and turned around, groaning softly as he felt Narcissa straddle his back. "Relax sweetie, we're all going to make sure that you will be relaxed when your fiancee gets back later today." She whispered in his ear.
He groaned as she started rubbing his back, teasing him by letting her breasts press against his back occasionally.
Bellatrix, Andromeda, Pandora and Lily watched with smiles on their faces seeing Narcissa massage their son, and when she got off of him, she winked at Lily. "He's all yours Lily-flower."
Lily smiled and straddled his legs, choosing to massage his lower back, and since she wasn't as well endowed as the other women in the room, she made up for it by increasing the pressure in some areas.
One by one they massaged a part of his body, leaving the last for Bellatrix, who took great pleasure in massaging his lower torso, purposely ignoring his raging erection. "I can see you like it sweetie. Are you feeling better?"
"Immensely so Mom, perhaps you ladies would like me to return the favor?" He asked with a soft smile.
They smiled at him. "Tempting, but another time. I think your fiancee will want one when she gets back though, and I know you have such magical hands that she will jelly in your hands by the time you are done." Andromeda said with a loving smile.
He nodded and relaxed against the mattress as his mothers, Lily and Pandora cuddled up to him, all of them content to stay right where they are for the rest of the afternoon.
