"Legilimens," Harry cast the spell as he gazed into Andromeda's eyes, and slipped into her memories easily. She didn't have anything in the way of shields, which surprised him, considering the emphasis Artus had placed on protecting the mind. He would have expected her parents would have made sure she learned Occlumency from an early age.
He winced as he encountered her memories of his punishment, and Luna's, glad that she had accepted their explanations. It was something that neither he or Luna were happy about, and were determined not to let the magic overwhelm them that way again!
Going deeper, he watched as her husband walked out, and the relief Andromeda's felt that she wouldn't have to endure his appetites any longer. He paused, because it seemed like he was hearing a distant echo of a familiar voice, saying that it was disgusting what he wanted, that he should have been trying to give her another child! He remembered hearing that Andromeda had spent a lot of time with Walburga Black as a child, and hearing the hateful woman's voice would make sense of her attitude. He couldn't imagine anyone getting pleasure out of sex with that hag!
Following the voice further into Andromeda's memories, he ignored the other scenes in her life, if it was important they could come back to it, but he didn't want to invade her privacy any more than he absolutely had to.
He finally found the source of the voice, and stopped, watching as Walburga was teaching Andromeda about the role of the Senior wife, how she had taken control of the family from her husband, because he only thought about slaking his lusts on her body, and how she had refused to do anything so disgusting after she provided him with his two sons. There were plenty of mudbloods and whores he could degrade if he really wanted to, she had done her duty to the family!
He could tell that Andromeda really didn't understand what her Aunt was talking about, the girl wasn't more than six or seven! She had no idea what sex was, or what lust was, they were just words. But the woman kept repeating herself in every memory, while she doted on the girl in all other respects, so her words embedded themselves deep in Andromeda's mind, so deep she'd forgotten about them. That is, she'd forgotten them until her first night with Ted when she had to force herself to overcome her automatic revulsion at the idea of taking him in her mouth!
He could hear Walpurga's voice in Andromeda's mind as she sucked him, telling her that she should endure his filthy demands until he got her pregnant, then she never had to allow him to touch her again.
Harry could see Ted's hurt and confusion at the disgust she was showing and realized that the marriage probably died right then and there. He shook his head sadly, it was a real shame, but he couldn't do anything about it since the man seemed to have disappeared after the divorce.
He paused, considering his next steps. He could obliviate Andromeda of the memories, but he didn't want to risk removing more than he'd intended. But, what he could do...
Searching his memories of his training, he found what he was looking for and pulled the information to the front of his mind before going back to the very first memories of Walpurga teaching the little girl.
When he arrived, he pointed his wand at the memory of the old woman only to freeze in shock as she whirled around, her own wand in her hand. "Who are you and what are you doing here, boy?" She demanded, the tip of her wand already starting to glow green.
He glared at her, "I'm Lord Harry James Potter-Black," he held up his hand to show her the ring, "The Head of the Black Family, and I'm here to correct the damage you did to a member of my family!"
She sneered at him, "You? You're just a boy, your balls probably haven't even dropped yet! Why would Arcturus name a little shit like you as Head of the Family?"
"Arcturus is dead, as are you, your husband and both of your sons. It was your older son, Sirius, my godfather who named me the Head of the Family, and the family magic has confirmed that decision, otherwise, I would not be wearing this ring. Now I order you, lower your wand immediately, you've done enough damage to the Family as it is!"
She stared at him, "No! No! You're lying, there's no way that Sirius would go against my wishes, you aren't even a true Black, I remember the Potter name now, they were those weaklings who refused to support our goals! Be gone child, you have no authority or control over me!"
"Oh, I don't, do I? Well then, I guess I can't be doing this!" In a flash the woman was frozen, her wand dropping from her hand and clattering on the floor, while Andromeda sat unmoving, completely unaware that anything was going on. With a gesture, the woman started to remove her robes until she was standing there naked in front of him. Conversationally he said, "I could do anything to you, I could transport you naked to the worst brothel in Knockturn Alley and force you to service goblins and half-breeds for the rest of your existence, but I won't, it wouldn't serve any purpose, you believe so strongly that you are right you wouldn't learn." With another gesture, the woman was completely dressed again, and he said, "What I will do, though, is banish you. Walpurga Morganna Selwin, you are no longer a member of the Family Black! Your name and all your works will be removed from the annals of our Family, and no female child will be permitted the name Walpurga from now until magic itself fails. Now, You are Banished!"
With a despairing wail, the woman in the memory was pulled away, a hole opening in the wall behind her and she was dragged through it, the hole sealing itself behind her.
He looked around and the room was already looking brighter, and he was about to withdraw, when Andromeda sat up with a start and looked at him in confusion. "What happened? Where's Aunt Walpurga? And who are you?"
Thinking quickly, Harry put a reassuring smile on his face, "I'm Harry, and I'm the new Head of the Family. You'll meet me again later, and we are going to be very good friends. But I'm afraid that magic called your Aunt away, she was needed to do something else, and she won't be back. But you don't need to worry about that, this will soon fade away like a dream. He touched her gently on the head, and the memory of Andromeda fell asleep, and he watched as a much younger looking Kreacher came in and gently carried the girl up to her bed.
Pulling back, he was in his own body when Andromeda woke up and smiled at him, "Thank you, Lord Black, I was watching as you confronted my Aunt, and memories of her voice are gone!" Standing up, she said, "Could you please ask Lady Black to join us? I feel a tremendous need to make amends to both of you."
Sending an Adfero, Luna walked through the door a few moments later, just as naked as she usually was, "Yes, my Husband?"
"We've discovered the source of Andromeda's difficulties and removed them. Now she feels a need to make amends."
Luna smiled happily, "That's wonderful! I'm sure you'll be much happier now, Andromeda."
Andromeda slipped off her robes and knelt down in front of her, "I'm already much happier, Lady Black, and I'd like to show you just how much if you will permit me?"
Luna looked over at him with a grin, and said, "Of course you may, Andromeda, and welcome to the family!"
It was nearly three hours later that the three of them left the room in search of dinner, and Andromeda left her robes laying on the floor.
Later that Evening
Bella waited anxiously as Harry signed the letter, and sealed it with his ring, before handing it to Kreacher to take to Gringotts.
Sitting back in his seat, he said "Well, that's done. The Black Account Manager should contact me in the next day or so to arrange the meeting, and we can get that obscenity out of the vaults. With the research your sisters and the others are doing, we will hopefully be able to destroy your former master before the end of the Summer."
"I hope so Lord Black, even now, remembering the thing he twisted me into makes me feel sick. I don't know how I can face the public, even if they don't try to kill me the first time I step out the door!"
He nodded, "I understand, and I've been thinking about you and Narcissa's situation, since the Ministry and Gringotts both consider you dead we'll have some work to do. But we've got time to figure out a solution. Unfortunately, there is the more unpleasant business that needs to be dealt with now. Even though you were not truly in control of your actions, you were still directly responsible for the death of the previous Head of the Family, and the Family Magic requires your punishment."
She fell back in her seat, suddenly feeling weak as her blood turned to ice in her veins. But he continued speaking, and she felt a tiny glimmer of hope flame inside her.
"However, I'm in control of the Family Magic, and I'm taking into account the circumstances, so the punishment will not be as severe as it could be. It will still be painful, I won't lie to you, but after it's over, you will be forgiven, your crime expunged from the Family records. Do you understand?"
She bowed her head submissively, "Yes Lord Black, I understand, and will submit to your will."
"Very good. Now, stand up, there's no sense in putting it off. Within an hour you will be soaking in the bath and taking a pleasant dreams potion so you can recover."
On shaking legs she followed Lord Black out of his office, waiting as he summoned Lady Black to join them, and almost fainting in relief when he stopped at the bathroom and told her to relieve herself before they continued. She'd been afraid that she was going to soil herself in fright, and was grateful he would spare her that humiliation. Bella had known from the moment she'd woken up that she would have to pay for what the older version had done, but she'd made an effort not to think about it. But at least it would be over soon, and she would endure, she was a Daughter of the Black and would face her punishment with as much dignity as she could muster.
Lady Black surprised her, when Lord Black explained what was happening, she actually looked at her with sympathy and kissed her softly, "Don't worry, I'll be there to support you, I know you aren't responsible, and so does Lord Black, but this is something that has to be done."
Bella managed a weak smile, "I know, My Lady, and thank you for being there. I'm just so scared about what he's going to be forced to do to me!"
Lady Black nodded, "After what the magic forced him to do to Andromeda, I can understand that. But we are both in much better control of the Family Magic now."
Lord Black led them down into the basement of the house, past the door that held the heart stone, stopping at a large wooden door. Lord Black tapped it with his ring, and the door opened, lights coming up as he walked inside.
Bella cringed at the sight of the rack, and the burning coals in the brazier. She prayed that he wasn't going to burn her, like all witches, she had an atavistic terror of being burned. Fortunately, he walked passed the coals, stopping at the two wooden posts that were standing about five feet apart. When he gestured for her to come forward, she understood what her punishment was going to be, and bit back a sob. She was in a daze as her arms were stretched and her wrists were cuffed to the posts, and then he and Lady Black pulled her legs apart and the cuffs were put around her ankles.
She saw the sadness in Lord Black's eyes as he held up the handle of the whip to her lips, and she kissed it, knowing what was required of her. In a shaking voice, she managed to whisper, "Thank you for my punishment, Lord Black, I understand my offense and accept your judgment."
With the ritual acceptance of her punishment finished, she closed her eyes, waiting for it to start. But then she felt a spell hit her, and she opened her eyes in shock as her entire body felt numb! The relief she felt almost made her collapse in the bonds, but she swore she would express her appreciation to Lady Black as soon as she was able!
The first strike of the whip landed on her back, and she grunted, it still hurt like hell, but not the flaming agony she'd been expecting. She lost count of how many times the whip landed on her back and legs, but she did cry out when it landed directly on her tits and shrieked when the lash hit her pussy! No amount of numbing would stop that from hurting!
But then it was over, and they were letting her out of the cuffs, and both of them were casting healing spells on her. Lord Black helped her drink some juice, which eased her throat from the screaming, and then they were carrying her up to the bath, and she was soaking in the soothing water, the pain fading even in her memories.
Lady Black helped her out of the bath and dried her, letting Bella lean on her as she stumbled to her room, and lifted her onto the bed. Bella drank the light pink potion that Lady Black said would give her pleasant dreams, and soon was falling into a drowse.
She vaguely noticed the soft lips pressed against her forehead, but dreams were calling for her, and she closed her eyes, sleep welcoming her into its arms.
Luna hurried from Bella's bedroom back into the bathroom, where Harry was crouched over the toilet, the sound of his wracking sobs echoing throughout the room. Closing and silencing the door, she knelt down beside him, her arms wrapped around him as he cried. "It's okay Harry, it's done, you didn't lose control and you'll never have to do it again. You kept control of the magic, it didn't make you hurt her that badly, you did well, I love you, we all love you, it's okay Harry, it's okay." She kept talking softly until the sobs ceased, and he turned to her, tears still running down his cheeks.
He looked at her, his eyes searching hers, and she lowered her shields, letting him see her love for him, and he relaxed, pushing himself to his feet and stumbling to the sink. Pouring a glass of water, he gulped it down, before splashing water on his face. Giving her a weak grin, he said, "Can you cast the mouth-freshening charm? I'm still feeling too shaky and might cast it up my nose, and don't want to think about what that would do."
She grinned lightly, glad her husband managed to keep a bit of his sense of humor. Casting the charm, he smacked his lips, "Ah, that's better. I would have hated to try and sleep with vomit breath." He grimaced, "Can you make my apologies to Tonks and Narcissa? I'm really not up for much of anything tonight, and just want to hold you in my arms as I sleep. I'll try and make up to them tomorrow."
Luna nodded, "Of course, do you want me to explain what happened? I think they need to know what has you and I so upset."
He considered for a few seconds, before nodding. "Yeah, I guess they do, otherwise they'll just wonder why Bella was so nervous and if they need to worry about the same treatment, especially after Andi..."
She grimaced, that was such a mess, but at least with the ghost of Walpurga gone, Andromeda was just as randy and uninhibited as all the rest, as she'd proved that afternoon, sucking Harry after he'd buggered both of them, and orgasming several times while doing it!
Once she got him into bed, she kissed him and left the room. All the others were in the Library, still searching for information on how Tom had kept himself from dying. They looked up when she came in and closed the door. Ginny started to say something but closed her mouth when she got a good look at Luna's face.
"Harry asked me to apologize to Narcissa and Tonks, he's not feeling up to doing anything tonight, he's already gone to bed to try and sleep. We had to punish Bella tonight for what Bellatrix Lestrange did to Sirius. Neither of us wanted to, we understand it wasn't really Bella who was responsible, but the Family Magic required it, because Bellatrix did cause the death of the former Head of the Family."
Narcissa and Andromeda both paled, and Tonks grimaced, but Luna continued. Fortunately, unlike what happened with Andi, we were both in control of the Family Magic, so the punishment wasn't as bad as it could have been." She gave them a brief description of what they had done, including how (at Harry's direction) she'd cast the numbing charm on Bella, and how they had healed and soothed her after it was over.
When she finished, the four women all looked relieved, and Tonks said, "Hell, after that I'm surprised he's even functioning. That had to tear him up as much as it hurt Bella. Is he going to be alright?"
Luna sighed, "We're both going to have nightmares tonight, but he asked to hold me in his arms tonight, hopefully, we can keep each other's bad dreams at bay. But, don't be surprised if neither of us is at our best in the morning, okay? I'm going to join our husband. Good night."
When she got back to the master bedroom, Harry was already dozing restlessly, and she slipped into bed, putting her arms around him, and smiled sadly when he immediately turned and pulled her close, the strain leaving his face. She mentally cursed what the magic had forced them to do, and the tears she'd been holding back for so long finally ran silently down her cheeks.
It was a very rough night for both of them.
Gringotts Bank
Bloodaxe's Office
Approximately the Same Time
Bloodaxe looked up from his ledgers, much healthier with the additions of the Malfoy and Lestrange gold, as the chime alerted him to a communication from his client. Reading through it, he gave a grunt, at least the walking roast was sensible enough to approach things properly, actually requesting an appointment to go over the status of the accounts, instead of waiting for Gringotts to contact him.
His eyes narrowed when he got to the part about suspecting the Lestrange's had stored forbidden magic items in their vault, and requested that the fines be taken from the Lestrange vault since they were the ones who placed the items there. And with the entire family dead, there would be no-one to complain. Bloodaxe snorted, the roast actually had a sense of humor! This might actually be entertaining for a change.
Writing a note to have the Lestrange vault, as well as the property in the dowry that was reclaimed examined for any forbidden magic, as well as the fees for the search charged to the Lestrange account, he sent it to the curse breaking team. Goldeye was going to be even more unhappy to see those fines taken from his accounts, but he should have kept a closer watch on what he allowed to be put in the vault!
He frowned, it might not be a bad idea to have the Black vaults examined as well, just to make sure that there was nothing forbidden stored there. He didn't want his vaults to be charged for anything if he could avoid it.
Picking up the letter, he looked at it closely, at least he had a name to go into the ledgers as the new Head of the Family, and prepared the notice to be sent to the beast's government. He paused before going back to the ledgers, that name, Potter, that was very familiar. There was some sort of notice from Ragnok about the Potter accounts, where was it? Turning to his files, he managed to find the notice fairly quickly, and his eyes widened as he read it. This could make things even more entertaining. Attaching a copy to his ledgers, he wrote a reply to the request for an appointment, setting a time three days from now. That would give him time to check the Black vaults as well as the Lestrange vaults.
Putting the letter into the outgoing basket, he moved to the next item on his list.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Headmaster's Office
Later that Night
Albus sat back at his desk, rubbing his eyes tiredly. He had gone over every memory he had about the meetings of the Order in their old headquarters, but was still no closer to remembering where it was located than he was when he started! It was incredibly frustrating, there were times when the knowledge felt so close, that the clue he needed was hovering just out of his line of sight, but when he tried to focus on the thought, it vanished again.
At least Molly had stopped bothering him at all hours after Ginevra's letter from the night before, which he was extremely thankful for. He was fond of the woman, but he didn't need the distraction from trying to discover where Harry and the others were. He was also missing the presence of young Nymphadora, her unusual outlook at Order meetings had led to some interesting insights in possible activities Tom and his followers might attempt. Knowing that she, and most likely Andromeda as well, were with Harry and the others wasn't helpful, even though it meant that she was at least safe wherever she was. But that just brought back the question, where were they?
He paused, a slight smile appearing on his face. Maybe, if concentrating on the Order meetings was protected, what if he focused on something outside the meetings? There was that unpleasant house elf skulking around, what was its name? Creature or something like that, maybe if he could focus on the elf it would be considered insignificant enough that he could learn what he needed?
The Ossuary
Earlier that Evening
Neville was finally relaxing after the stress of the day, writing a letter to Hermione to let her know everything that was going on. He'd really been worried about her, the curse that hit her could have easily killed her if she hadn't managed to at least partially silence the Death Eater who had cast it! He wrote her everything he knew about what was going on with Harry, Ginny, and Luna, which unfortunately wasn't all that much.
He had a lot more to write about his new wand though, thirteen inches long, cherry wood and unicorn hair core! Neville could hardly believe how amazing it felt to have a wand that worked with him, and not fight him. He did feel bad that his dad's wand had been broken, but Frank hadn't been unhappy at all, he'd said that it probably wouldn't have worked that well for him either, after being cursed for so long. His mum had agreed, saying that her original wand wasn't responding as well at it used to. Both of them had chosen wands from the ones that Gran had found at the Lodge, and they seemed to work well enough until they could get to Ollivanders to get fitted ones. It would be a while before they could do that, though, they still needed to get their strength up, it just wouldn't be safe otherwise, after that ridiculous article in the Daily Prophet.
In fact, his mum and dad had already gone up to their bedroom, saying they still tired easily, which he could understand. But he didn't really want to think about the fact that their bedroom was right across the hall from Madame Bones', or the way that the three of them had been looking at each other all through dinner.
Neville still remembered the conversation he'd overheard, about how active his parents were, and had no problem with the idea that they enjoyed having another girl in bed with them. After all, he and Hannah had talked about how close she and Susan were, and Susan hadn't bothered hiding that she was interested in him as well. In fact, now that his parents were awake, he had talked to the two girls about the possibility of a line continuation contract for the Bones line. Both girls had been enthusiastic in their approval of the idea, unfortunately, they hadn't had the time to show him just how much they liked it!
Pushing the thoughts of what both girls had promised him out of his mind, for the time being, he wondered if there had been any more word about Harry and the others? Madame Bones had told him and his parents, after getting their oaths to keep the information quiet, that all three of the Lestrange's were dead. The brothers, along with Lucius Malfoy had died in the holding cells, and while they didn't know what happened to Bellatrix, she had received word from the goblins that the witch was dead as well.
He felt a sense of satisfaction at knowing all of the people responsible for hurting his parents were dead, although he would have loved the chance to hurt Bellatrix personally, for the curses she'd fired at him the other night, as well as on Harry's behalf for costing him his godfather. Of course, if what the letters from Ginny and Luna were saying was true, Harry probably was too busy to feel bad about Sirius Black's death. And that was a hell of a shock, finding out that Black wasn't the one who had betrayed the Potters or killed all those people on the street.
He idly wondered if Ginny and Luna were as close as Hannah and Susan? Even they weren't before, chances are that they were now. He remembered hearing when Gran and her friends hadn't realized he was in earshot, just what the duties of the junior wife tended to include. He closed his eyes, imagining Ginny with her mouth on Luna, and groaned softly as he stiffened. 'No, better not think about that right now, I've got two beautiful girls of my own who are going to be waiting for me upstairs, and thinking about Harry's girls wasn't right!'
Shoving the images away, he went back to the letter to Hermione, asking if her parents really knew about what was going on, and suggesting that she contact Gringotts about getting some wards put up around her house since it was considered a wizarding home now that she'd taken her OWLs. He really didn't want to think about it, but he knew that his friend would be a prime target for attack, since she was known to be close to Harry, as well as fighting the Death Eaters at the Ministry.
Finishing the letter, he sealed it and called for an elf to take it to the owlry. Looking up, he saw that it was finally time to head up to his (and now Hannah's) bedroom. It was surprising that Hannah's parents hadn't raised any objection when Hannah had told them she was sleeping with Neville. They just made sure she knew the contraceptive charm since they didn't want to be grandparents before she had her NEWTs. Neville could respect that, and even if Hannah didn't know it, he did, this was no time to bring a kid into the world, especially when he was still almost a kid himself.
Walking up the stairs, he saw that his bedroom door was ajar, and hurried forward, he'd been waiting for this moment all day! Pushing the door open further, he slipped inside and closed it behind him. Putting up the silencing charms, even though his parents were in the far wing, he turned to the bed and his jaw dropped in amazement.
Susan and Hannah were laying on top of the covers, both them wearing a lazy smile and nothing else! Hannah stretched, lifting her arms over her head, making her breasts stand out even more than usual, and she purred, "Come to bed, Neville, we've been waiting for you."
He didn't say anything, just started undressing as he headed for the bed, wondering if life could possibly get any better?
