Harry slowly came around and for a brief moment thought surely it was a dream. His eyes were blurred and he reached for his glasses a moment before he remembered that he had corrective surgery and had not worn glasses. It was the bright light over head making it hard to adjust. He eventually sat up and realized as he recognized the couch he was on as the headmaster's, it had not been a dream. And saw Lucius eying him over a glass of booze. His dads were both at his side but his eyes fell on the papers he had dropped and he was quickly reminded of why he had fainted.

He shot an angry look at his dads. "How could you do this to me? How could you give me to him? I thought you were my dads. I thought you loved me."

Sirius tried to hold him. "We are your dads and we do love you Harry. But he had a way to win the war and to spare hundreds of lives."

Harry stood shaking. "So you sell me off to him? What does my life matter? Who cares about me right? I faced Voldemort, my usefulness is through."

He could see the man staring at him and he wanted to vomit. He could feel the eyes burrowing into him, undressing him. He cringed at the thought of the hands and other body parts any where near him. He had been sold into bonded marriage to this man. By ancient right. The man could take him when ever or where ever.

Remus tried to come to him. "Harry we did not have a chance to ask you. Lucius was about to walk out. We love you but we could not allow the war to go on."

Harry grabbed one of the glasses from the table and threw it against the wall in frustration. "To sacrifice my life should have been my choice. Mine."

Sirius grabbed him by the arms. "Harry you are alive. You can finish school. I know the marriage is not what you wanted but..."

Harry broke free of his grasp. "I just have to submit to him every night for the rest of my life. I am not even sixteen. I am not even sixteen damn you."

He had kissed one girl, never had a kiss with a guy since he learned he was gay. He had so many dreams. He had thought with the war over he could live them. Now every bit of that was shattered. He didn't care right now how greedy he might sound. He didn't care. He deserved a chance to choose. He deserved a chance to decide if he was willing to sacrifice himself for everyone else. His dads were right, he would have. He would have to protect others. But it was his life and should be his choice.

Harry chucked another piece of glass. "How could you not tell me? You knew for a year. You knew for a year and you didn't tell me."

Remus was white. "We wanted to give you a normal year. We wanted you to enjoy it before..... We knew if we told you about this you'd think of only it."

Harry shook him off. "So better to make he walk into an office totally unprepared with my future husband waiting to take me away in shackles? Good idea."

Taking him by the arms Sirius tried to explain they were not real shackles. They were just magic dampeners. They would prevent Harry from being able to try and hex Lucius or harm him in any other way. Anything he tried to do to his husband would happen to him. Harry just looked sicker then before when he heard the words and he tried to fight the arms on him especially when he realized why Sirius was holding him. He felt the heavy manacles clamp over his wrists.

Harry found himself drawn back into the arms of Lucius who spoke. "Come on little one. I have given you enough time. Time to come home to the manor."

Remus tried to come give him a hug goodbye. "We love you Harry. We are sorry to do this to you. There was just no other way. You will see that one day."

Harry shook his head. "I will never forgive you. I will never forgive you. I deserved a choice, or at least the truth before now. I can't believe you did this to me."

Whether Harry did it intentionally or he was too lost in his anger and pain to care Harry violently threw his head back in a strange head butt of his captor but his head instead felt like it was rammed into the wall. The manacles worked on muggle as well as magical attacks on his soon to be husband. Harry saw the concerned faces of his fathers before he passed out into the blackness that started to surround him.

Lucius scooped him up. "The foolish little kitty. Well he will learn soon enough. We will send a wedding announcement when we wed in a week."

Remus took a small package from his robes and looked at Lucius. "These are for him."

Lucius was silent a moment and then nodded. "Very well. I assume my little husband to be could use a few things to remind him of home."

They watched as Lucius headed through the floo to his manor. He had sent an elf to collect any of Harry' things he thought his husband could actually use in his new life and role. Most of Harry's prized possessions including his map and broom were left behind though his cloak was brought. Not even his clothes were taken. Or his album from Hagrid of his parents or anything else. Hedwig was loose and they hoped Harry would at least be permitted to keep her. She was his first gift and meant the world to him. Their hearts ached as they watched Harry taken away and the look in his eyes would haunt them for probably the rest of their lives they thought.

Remus sobbed against his husband. "He will never forgive us, our son will never forgive us. We should have......"

Sirius kissed him. "We did what we thought necessary back then Remus and Harry will see that. He'll forgive us one day. He will."

Though he said the words to his husband Sirius was no more sure of them then Remus. It was not just the contract but the fact that they had not told Harry about it and let him walk in here blindly that hurt him so bad. They had thought it would be better to give him a year, a year of a normal life with happy memories like their wedding and all the trips and a normal school year before they made him do this. Even if he ever forgave them, they were not sure they could ever forgive themselves.
