Harry looked up from his desk just as his husband walked through the door of his office. It had been just about five years after he and Draco started this school with the help of Remus. Yes, he had to admit that there were some problems with the werewolves, but nothing too serious. Nothing that would jeopardize the school's status.

They were living the life. A life full of privilege, and luxury. They had diplomatic power that rivaled that of the minister himself, who was still Albus. Harry no longer needed Draco around all the time to remain stable, and even though he was still unable to control his magic fully, he could control it to the point that if any incident with the werewolves occurred ever again that he could blast them into the next century. Not that he would, of course. But he could if the situation called for it.

Flashback

There was a big disruption somewhere outside the castle and Harry found himself following the students running towards the scene of the disruption. He didn't know what to make of it as soon as he got there. All he knew was that this was not your ordinary fight. This was a fight that could mean disaster to his reputation, and one that he was going to put a stopping to at once.

A couple of the students thought it might be funny to play a prank on one of the guards, who just happened to be a werewolf. They walked up to the guard and asked him, "Do you want to try one of these candies that I got at Hogsmeade earlier today?"

The guard took the candy and… POW! The candy exploded right in the guards mouth. Not a funny thing to do when its only a few days left till the full moon. One thing led to another and the guard had both students pinned face down in the dirt. That's when Harry showed up.

"Paton! Unhand those children at once!" Harry didn't give Paton a second chance for Harry had him ripped off and hovering in the air before Paton could say 'Butter Beer'.

End Flashback

…

"Something on your mind?" Draco asked when Harry didn't immediately acknowledge his presence.

"No... It's just... I can't believe how far we've come. How far I've come. It seems like just yesterday that whenever students got out of hand that I asked Remus, or Father when Remus was away, to punish the students. And now I have no problem punishing them at all. Well, I think that the girls had something to do with that," Harry couldn't help but wonder out loud.

"Speaking of which, the girls and I are wondering when you will be home tonight. Will you be home in time for dinner?" Draco asked casually. Even though he never said anything to Harry before, he really didn't like that Harry didn't need him as much anymore. And Draco couldn't help but think that's why Harry started to spend so much time at work these past few weeks.

(A/N: I know, I know. Draco is sounding like a bit of a jerk at the moment. Keep in mind that Harry needed Draco constantly around after the spell had worn off and after Harry charred Voldemort to ash.)

Even though Draco knew this day would come, it didn't mean that he still couldn't worry.

"Yes, I will be home in time for dinner. In fact, I am just now finishing up with the paperwork from a recent fight that broke-out among the students. I'm telling you though, these girls at Hogwarts and here are more vicious now then I think they were when we were in school," Harry laughed at this, remembering how Slytherin girls' and Gryffindor girls' always fought. "Anyway, I'm done now. So why not I just call it a night and let my prince rescue me from this nightmare that is the paperwork before me."

"I don't see how that would be a problem," Draco more than willingly obliged his husband.

"UGH! Where is he? He should have been here more than an hour ago. Ididn't kill his parents for nothing!" She shouted, outraged.

"Milady, I'm sure he will be here soon. There is no need to worry; he said he will be and he will-" a figure stated reassuringly.

"Don't you dare tell me anything less than what I want to hear!" She was furious and she was going to make sure that they all knew it.

"Yes, Milady. As you wish," the figure submitted.

"Good, now run along and don't disappoint me this time. For it might as well be your last," she drawled.

'How am I supposed to help this boy if he doesn't show up, and when he does he brings me worthless children. I need those special children. What about those cousins of his that he speaks so highly of? I will just have to ask when he decides to show up. Yes I think I will do that' She thought to herself as she slowly let out a sinister laugh.

(A/N: Again (add comma) I know. But keep in mind that there hasn't been a "Dark" threat since Voldemort. So, yeah, more of her in the future chapters.)

Draco and Harry finally arrived at home to be greeted by their two daughters, Lily and Narcissa. Both named after their mothers. Though their personalities didn't match that of the people they were named after.

"Daddy, Daddy! You're home!" The girls both screamed in unison.

"Hey, you two," Harry barely got in before Lily slammed into his legs. "Whoa there, Daddy is hurting a little bit from trying to deal with the werewolves earlier today."

"Why do you insist on having those creatures at that school?" Kenny drawled. Kenny never did mind having Harry around until recently. Even if he didn't like Harry much anymore, he put up with him just only enough, so he didn't get cut off by Draco.

"Why do you insist on being such an asshole to Harry?" Draco sneered.

"Why does it matter? Now come on you two. It's time for dinner and I am starved," Harry interjected before the argument got any worse.

A few hours later, they were finally done with dinner. Kenny had persisted on arguing with Draco. Harry, with the help of Lily and Narcissa, had to interject more than a few times.

'Why is he acting this way?' Harry thought.

Little did he know Draco heard this through their bond and decided to reply. 'I don't know but he is starting to really get on my nerves. If he keeps this up, he will be cut off for good. I tell you, his parents gets killed, and we take him under our wing. The least he could do was show some respect. I mean, come on, they have been dead for a little over a year now.' Draco thought back.

A/N: I know, this is a short chapter, but it is also the first. Longer chapters to come. But for right now this is what you get. (grins mischievously)

Who would you like to be the evil lady?

Please name off some people. Seeing as how I have no idea who it should be. Also keep in mind that it doesn't have to be anyone we already know. Have fun.
