Last on My Love Story: Pretty straight-forward. I turned the page to the first chapter, the introduction.
Dark Veela are an extremely rare race of Veela. Most people believe that there are only the Veela we know as Light Veela. They are ignorant because, unlike the Light Veela, the Dark Veela trait is the recessive, but not in the way most people think. To be a Dark Veela, you must have the gene and the power. By power I mean, not physical power, but magickal and mental power. All Dark Veela have a mate. Unlike Light Veela, Dark Veela sense their mate's power, not their scent. This is one of the reasons the recently established Ministry for Magick deems them a Dark race.
Mate?!?
No it can't be- why me? A mate? Power?
I was too much in shock to do anything else but flip the page and read on-
Inheritance:
Witches and Wizards receive their Inheritance, if they have Magickal Creature genes become dominant, midnight of their sixteenth birthday. This is when the Dark Veela genes begin to dominate over the normal genes. If they did not already have it, their hair changes to an almost midnight colored silky black. Their eyes usually never change color, but they do become sharper, brighter. They also receive a facial marking. The process' length depends on the individual.
That didn't really tell me anything I already didn't know, but that does explain my eyes and new tattoo.
Oris Notatio
On their Inheritance Dark Veela receive an Oris Notatio representing their power level. There are four levels increasing with magickal strength- Inceptor, Medius, Imperium, with Adiectio being the highest power level. Each level has its own rune. That rune is the one on the marking surrounded by designs that differ from person to person. The placement also differs from person to person but it is always on the face. An intresting tidbit is that only people who specifically know that the person is a Dark Veela will they be able to see the Oris Notatio. Also, a picture of the Adiectio level rune is on the cover of this manuscript.
Of bloody well course! That's where I've seen the design before. I ran over to my clutter-filled desk and snatched up the , that's it. I walked back to the bed still looking at my face and felt a sharp pain go through my toe. Damn it! I stubbed my toe on that broken TV! I threw the mirror on the bedspread so it bounced a couple times before settling and grabbed my right foot and hopped the rest of the way to the bed.
While I sat there rubbing it I read the next page-
Genealogy
Dark Veela, like Light Veela, are born, not made. It recently has become popular to marry Magickal Creatures; this means the gene will pass down into offspring. To become a Dark Veela the gene must be in their hereditary make-up. The gene becomes dominant during their Inheritance if the person's magickal core is strong enough to support it. If not, the gene stays recessive in your line until someone comes along strong enough. It does not fade with time as you might think but always there in you and your line.
Remus said that he and Sirius were researching my family, I wonder what they found. I wish I had a copy of my family tree.
There are footsteps outside the door in the hallway when they stop out side my door, I quickly put the book under the bed and caught the little figurine that was still flying and stuck it in my trunk. I heard the eerie sound of a deadbolt sliding and multiple locks being clicked open in the otherwise dead silence.
"Get up and use the bathroom if you're not back in there by the time I come back up with your breakfast, you get none!" Was the sentence screeched at me through the door by Aunt Petunia.
"Yes ma'am."
On pain of hunger, I quickly went to use the bathroom, wash my face, and brush my teeth. As I leaned over the sink staring at my freshly-scrubbed face, I wondered what my Aunt's reaction to my new tattoo would be. All too soon I heard footsteps on the wooden stairs and I just made it back before she stepped onto the landing with the scraps I get today.
I stood at the door watching her walk toward me. She didn't seem to see the markings, the book was right. She was a tall woman with stern features, very unlike those of my Mother's. She had donned a knee length dress like normal with hose and those heels she likes. She usually dresses like this only occasionally wearing a tee shirt and nice pants. No jeans for my Aunt. I get all my clothes from her hand me downs.
She handed me the tray with only a little force and pushed me back into the smallest bedroom of No. 4 Privet Drive. I stumbled a bit but caught my footing and set the tray on the floor next to my bed.
I got back to my book.
Power
A Dark Veela's power is already significant enough to become a Dark Veela and then is ranked within their society with the facial markings. Even Inceptor Dark Veela are stronger than the average Wizard. Power is everything to Dark Veela. It is how they find their mate. Every Witch and Wizard has an aura with their magick surrounding them. Only very powerful Witches and Wizards can control their aura day to day however, no one can control theirs in times of great emotion.
Okay, not much information there. The next part was the largest. Of course it's on Mates.
Mates
Light Veela and Dark Veela both have a single mate. How they go about finding them is very different but also very similar. Light Veela go by scent. They have dreams with brief flashes of their mate. Once they smell their mate after their magickal Inheritance, they immediately start to send out their powers of seduction. This is why they are so desirable. Dark Veela, however, sense their mate's power. A Dark Veela, once they reach their magickal Inheritance, start to sense Witches and Wizards' auras, testing for a match. For you see, when they Bond, their magick will meld together, this means that they must compliment each other in every way. They are always opposite in some way- be it sides of magick or personalities. The Bond has three stages- Acceptio, Initio, with Absolvo being the final stage. Acceptio is when both the Dark Veela and the intended accept what is to be. Initio is the first kiss, initiating to bond, and Absolvo is when the bond is completed through sexual intercourse. With their mate, a Dark Veela can resolve or even tip the balance of any war.
Whoa. A Bond? I wonder who the lucky contestant is to be able to match the power of an Adiectio.
Hmmm… I should probably inform the Muggles of my vacation... I'll write a note and leave it on the bed.
My clock read 7:00 AM. I let Hedwig out to hunt- she should be back by tonight.
Another night of staring at the clock, waiting for midnight. I was packed and ready-to-go. I was sitting on my trunk, had my rucksack on my back, Hedwig's cage- with her in it of course-, in my left hand with Nature's Power Keepers clutched in my right. To say I'm nervous would be an understatement. You see, it's 11:59 PM. I had spent the day reading The History of the Seeker.I figured Dumbledore would tell Hermione and Ron. They wouldn't be to mad, would they? No, now's not the time to think abo… My inner rambling was cut off as I felt the familiar fish on a line tugging sensation of a portkey.
And then there was black.
