Harry knew Remus was right and he needed to talk to him. He had listened to them when they tried to convince him his feelings for Voldemort were just Stockholm syndrome. Part of it was or maybe all before but the Tom from here was added. But every time he thought back he thought of Lucius. He thought of the man who had been Lucius' lover. He remembered those nights he had been forced into sex with Lucius too. He couldn't understand how the man could claim to love him but did that. Voldemort kept him safe and took care of him. He had better care there then he ever had at home. But Lucius was a horrible terror of that time.

Tom was out front still but looked like he might be about to leave. For a moment Harry almost lost his nerve and turned to leave. But Tom noticed him and taking a deep breath Harry went over to him. He reminded himself there was a house full of people to ensure he could try nothing.

Tom came to him "I have wanted to tell you it was me all along."

Harry pulled away from his touch "Then why didn't you?"

Tom sighed "I was worried to scare you and run you off. I hoped you would give me a chance."

Harry was reminded of when the man helped him with his Christmas shopping. He had been encouraged to share his art work for real. He had given Tom the picture he had made in his first art class. It had been a caged bird because of this man. As much as he had come to care about the man he had still been a prisoner. If not for Lucius he may have forgot that part of it. He hadn't even minded the collar he was made to wear.

Tom reached out and got his hand "I love you my little one. I knew what the wolf did would free me to be with you."

Harry shook his head "If you are going to help stop Lucius who are you going to share me with now?"

Tom actually looked like he had been slapped by that comment. Harry had never noticed but even as Voldemort there were moments of real emotion. The only time he had seen it had been when Voldemort gave him his wand and wolf and set him free if he died. It was the first time he said love.

Tom tried to pull him in "I'm not the same man. I will never share you."

Harry still kept back "You claim to love me but you held me as he fucked me. You made me pleasure him. You made me..."

Tom wiped his tears "I am so sorry my love I looked at you like some possession. I swear I am not that man."

Harry held still for once but he was shaking badly. He could see the honesty in the man's eyes and hear it in his voice as well. Harry knew Remus said that the black magic had been removed from him. He even admitted that it was the man's love for him which had made it possible. He knew what it took for Remus to admit both to them. Remus had done all he could to free Harry from all of this. By making Tom look even more human he was doing the opposite.

Tom kissed him softly "Let me help you protect your family. And when Lucius is taken care of I will prove to you that you can trust me."

Harry pulled away and looked towards the house "You can't change it. You can't take away what you made me do to Lucius. What you let him do."

Tom was not giving up "I am stubborn and will do any thing to win your trust and heart. I will prove I am not the same man."

Harry fled into the house unable to remain any longer. Even before Remus' spell there had been a side of the man that he knew loved him and he cared about at the very least. He just couldn't seem to banish the memories of Lucius from his mind. The man had kissed him and assured him it would be okay as Lucius fucked him. He found himself wanting to believe him as he kept hearing the honesty but he was petrified.

George found him in his room and took him into his arms "He isn't Lucius. Follow your heart little brother. We will all be here."

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Lucius had found then finally. He knew he had to be careful not to make a show. He was known to be in a hotel room in Sidney. He had a little lover unconscious in bed. Even if any one looked to him he had an alibi. But no one would come after him for his three targets were dead legally. It was a mild shame his formed son would be buried here as an unnamed person or what ever his cover was. But he shook away the thought.

He found the house where they had been living. It was so quaint and muggle like the town it was near. He would have rather the Leaky cauldron's cheapest room over lowering himself down to this level. He wasn't surprised when Severus appeared in the door before he got three feet.

Lucius smiled "Long time no see brother. I was hoping for a family reunion with my son and you."

Severus took out his wand "Your son is far away from here. I plan to keep my promise to his mother."

Lucius sneered at the mention "Oh I know my son is here and so is my puppy."

Severus wouldn't have sent Draco off alone even if puppy and his brother went with him. He had no idea why and how the group came to be but he had a feeling Harry and Remus were close some where. He could not hurt them or puppy's brother but he would have who he had come for.

Lucius sent a cruciatus which Severus deflected "If they come out you and my son will have quick painless deaths and Puppy can return to my bed."

Severus would not be angered into letting his guard down "I have been besting you in duels since I was eleven."

Lucius managed to hit him with a severing charm and a cruciatus in the aftermath "Sad you have grown so soft."

Suddenly Draco and George came running out of the house. He had to laugh when his so called son had sent a cruciatus charm at him. Draco would never have made a death eater. As he raised his wand and cast the killing curse he knew he would finally bring real honour back to his family.

A body hit the ground with a thud.
