Draco let out a loud snarl, sounding completely inhuman. Blaise looked up, and bared his own teeth in defense, holding Harry close to him protectively. Harry looked up from Blaise's shoulder at the noise, and gasped when he saw the yellow eyes that Draco and Blaise had. He quickly tried to escape from Blaise's hold on him, but Blaise held him tightly.

He whimpered "B-Blaise?"

Blaise's and Draco's attention were immediately on him at hearing the fear in their mates' voice. They quickly tried to calm him down by cooing at him and sending out calming pheromones towards him. They then started to sniff and lick Harry everywhere, looking for any injuries that he may have.

Harry whimpered again, looking at them with wide, fearful eyes. He was still shaking.

"Hush, little mate. We would never let any harm come to you" Blaise whispered to him comfortingly, and Harry noted that his voice had changed. Now it had a gentle, loving tone when he spoke to Harry. Blaise nuzzled his tiny neck, and Harry moved away from him, making him growl in irritation. Harry flinched at the growl.

"Why do you flinch away from us, little mate? What have the humans done to you?" Draco whispered, looking at Harry with sad eyes as Harry moved away from them.

"W-What a-are you?" Harry whispered fearfully, and Draco and Blaise looked at each other, understanding in their eyes.

"The humans still haven't told you yet?" Blaise asked softly, eyes still yellow with a hint of anger and frustration them.

"T-Told me what?" Harry asked hesitantly, and they looked at Harry with love and adoration in their eyes.

"We're your mates, little submissive" Draco said, taking small, tentative steps towards Harry, stopping when Harry still looked at him fearfully.

"W-What c-c-creatures are you?" Harry asked in a tiny voice, making his mates frown at the fear in his voice.

"We're-"

But before they could finish, there was a commotion from the common room. Blaise and Draco looked at each other, silently communicating with each other, and they came to an understanding. Draco's eyes returned to their normal, cold grey color. However, Blaise knew better that Draco wasn't actually in control of his body. Blaise nodded, and Draco left the room to see what was going on.

While Draco was gone, Blaise took the time to admire every detail of his mate. His beautiful, adorable little mate. He understood that he couldn't do anything intimate with him at this age, but that was fine since he wasn't having any urges to do anything with him at the moment. Right now, all that he was feeling was the urge to take care of and protect his little mate.

He went over to his mate, who was huddled in the corner after he moved away from Blaise on the bed, and he quickly scooped Harry up in his arms, carrying him back to the bed. His Harry looked up at him with wide eyes, and Blaise nuzzled him, trying to calm his mate down.

"B-Blaise?" Harry whispered, and he snapped to attention at the small whimper his mate let out "Y-Your eyes…" He trailed off, and Blaise realized that his poor Harry must've been terrified by his eyes this whole time.

"I'm sorry if my eyes scare you, little one, but they will remain there for a while. We have deemed the humans unfit to take care of you, of our mate, and therefore have taken their place until further notice"

"S-So you're not actually Blaise?" His Harry asked, and Blaise felt pride well up inside of him at how smart his little mate was for his age.

"That's right, little mate. I will do everything in my power to make sure that you aren't hurt. You're ours, and no one else can have you." Blaise whispered, and nuzzled Harry again, and this time Harry didn't resist.

His little mate wrapped his tiny arms around Blaise's neck. Blaise purred in contentment, and Harry giggled at the purr, making Blaise look at him when that adorable giggle left his mate's mouth. He gazed at his mate tenderly, looking at every inch of his mate's face. To the messy raven-black hair that never seemed to stop sticking up in every direction, to the skin that looked like it had been kissed by the sun, to those wide, adorable emerald eyes, to those soft, kissable lips…

He was brought out of admiring his mate when Draco came back in the room.

"What took you so long?" Blaise demanded, and Harry looked to the doorway, seeing Draco.

"The humans were being childish and immature, and they called me a Prefect of some sort, and I had to fix their mistakes instead of them doing it themselves" Draco replied, eyes returning to their yellow color, making Harry flinch a bit. None of his mates noticed the flinch, talking to each other.

For that, Harry was eternally grateful.

Draco came over to them, and started nuzzling and licking Harry, making sure he's alright. Harry cringed when he felt a tongue lick his face "EW!" He exclaimed, moving away from Draco.

Draco frowned, looking offended while Blaise was on the floor laughing at the offended expression on Draco's face.

"You didn't complain earlier" He whined, and Harry pouted.

"That was because I was in shock of everything happening!" Harry whined in a high-pitched voice, wiping away Draco's saliva from his face, his expression one of disgust.

Draco huffed indignantly "Well you're going to have to get used to it, little mate, because it's in my nature to do that to make sure that you are safe and not injured"

Harry still looked disgusted at the prospect of them licking him all over his face, and grimaced. Blaise chuckled "It's not that bad, little one. Maybe when you're back to your normal age you'll enjoy it"

Just then, there was a knock on their door, and all of them were immediately on alert.

The door opened, and Pansy stepped inside hesitantly "Draco? Blaise? Professor Snape wanted to see all of you in his office right now. He says that he's brewed up a potion that will get Harry back to normal"

Draco's and Blaise's faces were cold and emotionless towards Pansy when she entered the room. However, their faces quickly expressed their shock when it was found out that their mate would be back to normal.

"He wants us to go now?" Blaise asked cautiously "Is he sure that the potion is complete? No steps were missed?"

"Blaise, he's a Potions Master. One of the youngest in the world, if not the youngest. I'm pretty sure that Professor Snape knows what he's doing" Pansy said, rolling her eyes at the protectiveness that the older males were showing.

Draco growled at her in warning, telling her not to roll her eyes at them again. Pansy gulped, and nodded, clearly getting the message. She left the room, and Draco turned to Blaise, who still had Harry in his arms.

"Should we go to him?" Blaise asked, and Draco nodded.

"I would think so, because our instincts would demand that we mate with Harry one way or another, and we can't hold back forever. We need to mate with Harry, so he can bear us children. It's taking all of my willpower not to ravish him every 5 minutes. Besides, we'll need to feed soon before the hunger returns." Draco answered, looking at Harry, who was curled up in Blaise's arms.

"Yes, but how will he take the news?"

"He already knows that we're creatures and he's our mate" Draco shrugged carelessly

"Yes, but I don't think that he truly understands what is expected of him" Blaise answered, and they both looked down at Harry sadly, lovingly, while Harry was falling asleep in his arms.

They didn't know if they would be able to let his innocence leave him again.

They walked to Professor Snape's office, the walk silent the whole way. Harry wanted to be carried by them, but they refused to carry him. They could barely look at him at this point, knowing that when their little mate returns to normal, there is a big chance that he could hate them.

They stopped by the door to Professor Snape's office, hesitating. They shared a glance with each other, and Draco raised a hand to knock on the door, but before he could, the Professor's voice answered loud and clear from inside.

"You may enter"

This is it.

It was time.
