Chapter 18

Harry woke up wrapped in his mates' arms. They had been back at Hogwarts for almost a month now and Ron and Hermione refused to relent. Wherever Harry and Draco went, Ron and Hermione would follow. Harry was starting to dread leaving their chambers in
/the morning. Luna, Neville, Blaise and Pansy were usually around Harry and Draco but even they couldn't distract Harry from the stares of his former friends.

As Harry was fretting relentlessly about his former friends, Severus and Lucius woke and looked at each other over Harry. Harry's fretting had woken them from their slumber. Lucius started nuzzling Harry's neck to calm him, or slow his mind at the very
/least.

"Why are you fretting, precious?" Sev asked.

"Ron and Hermione. They are just trailing Draco and myself. I'm starting to dread leaving the rooms on my own and I worry for Draco leaving the rooms on his own." Harry answered.

"Well, they are in the same classes as you. Well, Ron is anyway." Sev reasoned.

"I know. Just call it a hunch." Harry defended. "I mean, Ron is hot-headed which means he can do terrible things in the heat of the moment. Hermione can take either side. She usually bases it off her morals though."

"It will be fine, Dear." Luc soothed. "If something were to happen, I'm sure you could handle yourself. You wouldn't be our mate if you couldn't."

Harry kissed Luc on the cheek in thanks before getting up and showering. As Harry was thinking about everything, he realised he felt uncomfortable. He couldn't place it. Something just felt….off within him. Harry chalked it up to the stress with Ron and
/Hermione and thought nothing of it as he went off to breakfast with Draco. Just like the past couple of days, Neville met them by the Great Hall doors.

"Morning Neville." Harry greeted

"Morning Harry." Neville smiled.

"Morning Nev." Draco blushed.

"Morning Beloved." Neville responded, kissing Draco's hand.

Draco looked at Harry and Harry smiled encouragingly. "I'm going to wait here for Luna, why don't you guys head in?"

"You sure Mami?" Draco questioned.

"Of course. Luna shouldn't be far off." Harry encouraged.

Neville lead Draco away as Draco looked back at Harry with concern. Harry smiled to himself. He and Draco had gotten close since he had moved in with his mates and him and he was happy for his step-son and friend. He just felt a little awkward around
/their affection. For him, affection was alien so, while he treasured the affection, he also preferred to keep the affection behind closed doors which Sev and Luc seemed to adhere to as well. Everything had been going so well for them which probably
/meant Fate was about to through them a curveball soon. Just as Harry was thinking this, Luna came around the corner.

"Morning Harry." Luna greeted.

"Morning Luna." Harry responded.

"How are you feeling?" Luna asked with a knowing glint in her eye.

"Weird. Unsettled. I think it's the tension with Ron and Hermione getting to me. I've never had both against me before." Harry said, turning to enter the Great Hall with Luna, not realising Ron and Hermione were behind Luna. "I've always treasured them
/as friends but if having Luc and Sev breaks my friendship with them, I guess they weren't really my friends to begin with. It hurts that we are like this but if this is what they want, I'm not going to fight to keep them in my life. Especially if
/they don't want to be there."

Hermione held onto Ron and let Harry and Luna get out of earshot. "Ron, I think we need to get Harry away from his mates as soon as possible."

"I agree." Ron agreed. "They are poisoning him against us. Can't he see that we aren't accepting it because we care about him?"

"I don't know Ron. But we have to find a place to stash him first."

"That's not it Harry." Luna rebuked, noticing Hermione grabbing Ron's arm. "You are feeling unsettled because you are about to go into your first heat. I mean, it may have something to do with Ron and Hermione as well as you already being pregnant. I
could be wrong, but you are about

to get your first heat so I wouldn't be going anywhere your mates can't get to easily for a bit."

Harry was about to disagree with Luna when he noticed the determination and hidden knowledge on her face. "Alright. I'll head beck downstairs after breakfast."

Harry and Luna sat opposite Draco and Neville at the Slytherin table who were already half way through their breakfast. Harry looked up at the teachers table, noticing that once he locked eyes with Sev and Luc, he felt an intense longing and desire within.
/He then smelt their responding desire and he quickly ducked his head and focused on devouring his breakfast in record time. Once he finished his breakfast, he sat listening to Draco, Neville and Luna's banter until they got up to head to classes.
/Harry, instead of going with them, turned to face Sev and Luc. He grabbed their hands and lead them down to their rooms.

Warning: - Lemon…Don't like…skip

Once they were in their rooms, Harry pounced onto Severus, snogging him like no tomorrow. Harr felt that if he let go, Severus would disappear. Harry felt Lucius's lips on his neck, wondering when Luc had moved from where he had left him. Before Harry
/knew what was happening, his clothes were gone, they had moved to the couch and Luc was prepping him. Harry seemed to have entered a kind of deprivation and he needed his mates now. If he didn't have them now, who knew what would happen? Just then,
/Luc entered him. As Harry was adjusting, Sev entered Luc. As soon as Harry was ready, Luc started moving which, in turn, meant that Sev started to move as well. The pace started slow and sweet and continued slow and sweet until Harry let out a little
/whine.

Once that whine reached their ears, his mates seemed to enter a frenzy. Luc pounding into Harry with Sev pounding into Luc, hitting his prostate on every hit. Luc growled Harry's name as he exploded his seed within his sweet submissive. Luc was then pushed
/aside roughly by his Alpha as his Alpha pulled out of him and inserted himself into their submissive. A few rough pounds and moans later had his Alpha emptying his seed within their submissive, mixing with his own and their submissive squirting his
/seed all over his stomach that Luc and Sev then proceeded to clean.

They continued for another 3 rounds before passing out on their bed.

Safe to look now

The following week continued in this sexual haze. The only person who was safe was Draco. McGonagall had tried stopping by and Sev had all but ripped her head off. Luckily Draco was there to get her to safety with only a few scratches. The week was broken
/into sex, sleep, food and an hour spent with Draco before he went to bed that Harry insisted on. This hour would put Sev and Luc to the edge but they allowed the hour for 'family time' because Harry had requested it. By the following week, Harry was
/a very sore, very relieved and very happy submissive. He had forgotten all about his troubles with Ron and Hermione. So much so that when he went back to class, when they sat at the same table at the end of the week, Harry invited them to dinner with
/his mates and him that night.

"What are you doing Harry?" Draco asked after they left Potions.

"Being friendly. Why?" Harry asked.

"They're up to something. They've been looking for an apartment near Hogwarts."

"So? Maybe they want some privacy." Harry suggested.

"Maybe, but something doesn't sit right. They've been acting odd for the last 2 weeks. I'd be careful if I was you Harry." Draco warned.

"Alright. I'll keep my guard up." Harry promised.

After class, Harry told his mates that he had invited Ron and Hermione to dinner tonight and told them what Draco had told him.

"He has a point Precious." Sev said as he nuzzled Harry's neck. "They have been less then friendly up to this point. And even less understanding."

"That's why we need this. If they see how happy you guys make me, then surely, they would back off, regardless of if they agree with it or not." Harry reasoned.

"I just hope you know what you are doing Dear." Luc doubted.

'Me too.' Harry thought. Harry cuddled into Sev's arms, yawning. He could do with a nap before dinner.

After Harry had drifted off, Luc asked "When are we telling him?"

"I had planned to do it tonight at dinner, but I guess it will have to be after dinner. Lucky next month is Christmas break. We can do everything at once."

Dinner was a disaster. During dinner, Ron continuously insulted Severus and Lucius (and by default, Harry) to the point where Severus literally threw Ron and Hermione from their rooms and changed their password. Harry sat in the bathroom, crying. Maybe
/they weren't his friends after all. Maybe they couldn't support him and be happy for him the way he was for them. Maybe they were just bad people and he didn't realise it before. Who knows? All Harry knew was that he was done trying to be their friend.
/If they weren't going to accept how things are now, then he couldn't accept them into his life anymore. With his mind made up, Harry finished having a cry for his loss of friends, washed his face and crawled into bed.

"How are you holding up Dear?" Luc asked

"I've been better." Harry answered. He knew he couldn't hide anything from his mates now that their mind link had fully formed. "But I've decided that if they can't accept us as us then I can't have them in my life. You guys are the best thing to have
/happened to me and I will always choose you over friends." Harry then kissed both Luc and Sev before being sandwiched between the two. "Did you guys realise I could go on heat despite alreadybeing pregnant?"

"Of course we did. It just means that you'll have twins or triplets instead." Sev explained. "Wait, you're pregnant?"

"Yeah. Poppet and I thought you knew already. It's why we haven't said anything."

"No. We didn't realise it at all. We thought it was just a cologne you put on or something. No more roaming on your own."

"Fine. But it'll be hard." Harry said hugging and kissing his Mates. "We're having children. We are starting our family."

Sev asked, continuing with the momentum that seemed to be there,"Harry, how would you feel about getting married next month?"

Harry rolled over to study Sev's face. Harry wanted to make sure that he wasn't toying with him. After discovering nothing deceitful, Harry answered, "I'd love to." And snogged Severus and Luc again before falling into a blissful slumber, dreaming of
/a child with blond hair, onyx eyes and a cheeky smile with a raven haired, grey eyed sibling.

Author's Note: Sorry Guys. I've given up on trying to update regularly. I'm soo sorry. But please know I am thinking of you guys and even when I am not updating I am keeping busy thinking about where the story is headed. Thanks
/to those of my readers who are holding out, waiting for the end and to those of you who are asking me to do a drarry story line, there is one in the works as well as a Harry and tom/Voldemort as well as a Harry and Fenrir. Let me know in your reviews
/which you would like me to write next. But I'd like to get this story done first. Thank you to my reviewers. Please keep reviewing.

P.S. I would like to thank my reviewers 'silentsimple' and 'helensdragon'for pointing out a pothole in my storyline that I have now fixed regarding Harry's pregnancy.

P.P.S For those of you wondering, Lucius had to move out because he is Severus's Beta. Now that they are complete (so to speak), Lucius doesn't own anything. It is all in Severus's name which means that Malloy manor is now under Narcissa's name.
