Fire of defeat
Chapter 8
Harry stayed outside until the sun began to leave the sky, reading all the books and practicing all he could.
The books he had read were interesting; he could hardly put his book down so he could eat his breakfast or dinner. They were great! There was one specifically about Elementals, for the first time he realised that was what he was! He did as the book told him to do, and his control on his element enhanced dramatically.
Water, fire and air, three Elements he realised, wasn't normal for anyone, to ever have.
An Elemental was someone with the ability to control water, fire, ice, air, earth and lightning. There had never been more than five Elementals in a century. No-one, it seemed, had ever had more than one element.
It was hard to control, but if you had learnt it at an early age then you would have had more of a chance of having complete control over your magic.
The fire element, the most powerful element there was, and then the lightening element which was a very close second, were the most difficult to grasp.
If you cannot control you magic the next best thing was to get bond. Two people controlling the fierce magic would be much better. Preferably someone older and who has control over their magic and also magically powerful.
The book was nearly a century old it's self. They no longer allowed underage people to bond, not even if they are powerful enough to need it...Although the ministry would sell him/her to get money if they could. Then again, of course they would want someone from the ministry to marry her/him so they could be a powerful asset to the ministry.
They of course didn't want to believe Dumbledore when the man said Voldemort was back. They found out themselves, when he attacked, as he made his way up to the room of prophesies as if he were going for a walk!
Of course he got the prophecy just to hear it, and find out it was a lot of shit, because it was Dumbledore that killed him. He didn't remember what happened after all he had just been killed if he had he would have thought twice about chucking the prophecy against the wall. He had thought it would be about him and the Potter boy, who died that night, or supposedly died.

"Are you finished?" asked Severus from the door. He had of course kept the clips on Harry's arms. Not that Harry seemed concerned, mind you.
"Yea! I'm coming!" shouted Harry at Severus.
"Hurry up then if you want to make that potion!" he said.
"Coming!" he said. He was looking forward to making the potion, it was going to be exiting. He knew that was what Severus excelled in, he wanted to know how to make potions, and wanted to believe that not all potions were bad and had evil intentions.
"Good lets go..." said Severus.

"Now add the nettles" said Severus half way though the potion lesson. He had watched in silence as Harry began the potion, for a beginner he had a smooth way of moving and preparing everything.
One thing for sure Harry sure knew what he was doing. He had a feeling if he asked Harry to brew the Wolfsbane potion he would be able to do it.
"Very good keep going" said Severus watching impressed with how he was doing.
"Do I take it off the heat before adding the pro-" asked Harry.
Before he could finish, Severus cut in "-Yes that's right take the cauldron of the heat". He knew what Harry was talking about and he could answer the questions in his sleep being asked so many times since he started teaching.
Before they knew it the potion had cooled down and it was ready to put into vials. Which he did so; proudly looking at the potion which was the right texture look smell and smoothness.
"Well done. Now go and get a bath" said Severus.
"Ok, will you come up?" asked Harry through a yawn.
"Yes, now go!" said Severus. As he cleaned up the lab, he thought about how his life had been turned since he met the man. He was still not sure he was doing the right thing. Letting Harry kill someone wasn't a good thing was it? He wasn't sure.
The thought of Dumbledore or Voldemort taking over the United Kingdom quickly removed it. This could be the last chance for the United Kingdom's freedom. He would protect Harry and would help him always. Even if the man didn't ever love him, or want to stay, he would make sure he was fine.
The thought of his huge bath made him groan. He wouldn't mind a bath right now, it was bound to be full by now, having told Harry to have a bath.
"Mind if I join you?" asked Severus from the door. Harry's head snapped up meeting Severus' eyes he nodded his head.
"Thanks" said Severus. He was surprised he had said thanks; he was not a sentimental person.
"It's your bath Sev it's up to you if you want to be in it or not" said Harry. He didn't know how to thank the man for looking after him when he needed it the most, and also helping him get his revenge against the two men who had made his life hell.
"Yes it is" said Severus going a good distance from Harry as he could get. He wanted Harry to come to him and didn't want Harry to feel he had to have sex with him. He also wanted Harry to want him.
"Why are you so distant?" asked , his green eyes glowing with sadness.
"I'm not" said Severus. "I just don't want you thinking you need to have sex with me, you don't, and if you want it I want you to come on your own, and also be free of the feeling that you feel you need to have sex with me or I wont do it" said Severus. Harry was free now he didn't need to have sex with him. He knew he was not the nicest person in the world. He was ugly compared to other people.
"Oh" was all a stunned Harry could say.
He frowned deep in thought, remembering the first time. Had he done it with the man just to keep himself alive? Or had he let him do it because he knew he was not like the others or because he had a feeling he was not going to be treated like the others? Perhaps it was his seer ability that made him trust the man. He was not sure, but he knew that he had not had sex with the man because he felt he needed to. He after all had owed the man nothing back then. After the first time he had gone willingly loving the feeling it gave him.
Going over to Severus he wondered whether to tell the man how he felt. He decided to just tell him and get it over with, he wouldn't mind the man doing what he did to him this night and every night for the rest of his life.
"I've never done anything because I felt I owed you it, the first time I owned you nothing and the second time I wanted it. I had never felt so good before and wanted the feeling back; I wanted to feel safe the next time. After that man Pettigrew nearly-" said Harry not finishing it. He didn't want to think about what the man would have done if not for Severus coming in.
"It's ok. He can't get you here." said Severus, bringing Harry into him and hugging him.
Bringing their wet bodies together, Severus could feel Harry's hardness against him and groaned. He was far too tired to do anything tonight, and he didn't want to rush things so he decided to show Harry something he probably never had before.
Harry was held tight against the older man's wet chest. His eyes shut tight and his hands clenched in Severus' hair, Harry thrust his cock against the other man's thigh that was pressed between his thighs.
As Harry rode Sev's leg, Severus worked three fingers deeper into Harry's bottom, causing him to shudder and growl in pleasure.
"Oh Merlin Sev…please harder" Said Harry. Severus pulled him tighter against him and pressed up harder with his thigh, lifting Harry's feet completely off the floor of the tub.
He worked his fingers in and out of Harry, feeling his inner muscles clench and twist around his fingers as he found his prostate and massaged it.
Pushing himself back on those long fingers, he could feel his bollocks climbing. He knew he was close he didn't know how but he knew. He didn't understand how he did but it must be natural response. His body and he had never felt like this before. He gripped wetly to Severus as he started to see stars behind his eyes.
"Come Harry, come for me." Severus said huskily as he worked Harry's gland between fingers that were buried deep inside of the one he had began to like.
With a silent, cry, Harry felt his body tighten before, pearly white essence erupting from the slit of his throbbing cock. Covering Severus briefly before Severus used a cleaning spell to get rid of the come.
Holding onto Harry, Severus slowly withdrew his fingers, feeling the young loves breath pant heavily as he tried to get his breathing back under control. Harry Looked up into Severus' face with wide green eyes and then laid his head back down on his new and now lovers shoulder feeling safe and content for the first time.
"That's my Harry," Severus said as he picked up a flannel and soaped between Harry's tenderly used cleft, washing him clean again instead of using magic wanting to do it himself. He kept his leg between Harry's thighs so that the smaller man was now sitting on him. He heard Harry sigh in contentment and continued washing his lover. Lifting Harry out of tub after shutting off the water, Harry was his now and he was never going to let him go, not now, not ever. He was a dominant man, he liked having control that's why he liked younger men, they let the older men have control. Harry was just perfect for him looking for guidance and love something he was willing to give.
He got out and wrapped himself and Harry in a towel and then picked him back up to carry him into the other room. There he sat him down on the bed and swiftly cast a drying charm over them both. He rummaged through the drawers he pulled out clothes for both of them, dressing himself first.
As he slid a pair of pants over his thighs, the younger man spoke for the first time since he had came. "Will you sleep with me?" sleepily.
"Yes" said Severus, getting under the covers. It seemed as if they were now officially a couple or as official he would be able to get it. He was not going to let this relationship in their way, he had to train Harry and if Harry was always ogling at him it was so not going to work.
