A/N: This chappie is very short, but I wanted it that way. This is all about them. Though I usually don't like het, I really like what I did with this pairing. In fact, Kerri and Remus are probably the only thing I actually like about this story and the only reason I didn't trash it.
After everything had been sorted out Kerri and Remus retired to his room. They lay on his bed; Kerri curled around him, his arms holding her tightly. He told her everything about Sirius, just as he'd promised. He showed her pictures and told her about his poor relationship with his family and how the Marauders had become his new family, promising to show her pensieve memories when they had more time. He told her about losing him to Azkaban, and finding him only to lose him yet again. They laughed and cried together; both wishing Sirius was there to share in the moment with them.
She told him about the day he died. How awful it had been, knowing that he was gone and there was nothing she could do. How she'd wept blood for weeks and almost entirely ceased to function. "I had no way of knowing if you had already been born or if I'd have to wait for you a few more centuries, but the hope that I would someday meet you, kept me going." When he told her about the veil she requested to see it. "I know there's probably nothing I can do and it's probably just morbid curiosity, but I need to see it."
It would be tough, Remus knew, but Harry could probably get them in to see it when the war was over. If they were still alive to see the end. "I need to see it too. It's hard for me to believe that something so unsubstantial could take him away from me."
Kerri grasped his hand tightly. "We'll do it together."
They were quiet for some time, mourning the loss of their mate.
"I don't know much about vampires, and I've never heard of one mating with a werewolf. Will the mating bite harm you? Then would you change me? Or is that even possible?"
"It won't harm me; the bond will make sure of that and no I won't need to change you. Once the bond is complete, you will be immortal as well."
Remus wasn't sure how he felt about that. On the one hand, he got to spend eternity with his mate, see his children, and their children grow up. On the other hand, it was an eternity of full moons. Hmm, that brought up another question.
"What about children?"
"They will not necessarily inherit any creature blood. Neither my uncle or my mother had a dragon form like I do. It's also a possibility that they'll have all three creature bloods, be a dragon-vampire-werewolf hybrid, which will be very interesting," She mumbled wryly. "There's really no way to know for sure."
"Full moons?"
"It doesn't bother me. I can run with you, if you want. Harry may even want to join us. I would prefer that to caging you once a month. Either way, it's really up to you."
"I would love to run with a pack again." Remus answered wistfully.
Kerri smiled and brought his hand up to her lips to place a gentle kiss in the palm. "So you shall, my love."
A/N: Don't get any ideas – I am NOT bringing Sirius back to life. I'm sorry, but much as I love him, I just will not be doing that. I think it gives them an added bond, both of them losing their mate, both of them losing Sirius. Plus, I'm VERY particular about the circumstances of bringing Sirius back (either don't have him die to begin with or leave him dead, if a story is going to bring him back from the veil, there has to be a SUPER good explanation) and I honestly don't think I could write anything to my own satisfaction.
