Sooo sorry about the delay...
"Who could it be this early in the morning?" asked Harry.
"There is just one way to find out" said Voldemort "come in!" he shouted. The door opened and there stood the Malfoy family.
When Lucius, Draco and Narcissa stepped into the dining room, they stopped when they realised, that Voldemort is not alone. They stared at the other two with disbelief.
"My Lord..." started Lucius.
"Come and join us" said Voldemort. He watched as the Malfoys stood still for a few moments then followed his order. Lucius was a follower, but one with wit and heart. He would understand the situation and help them. Draco and Narcissa sat down as far from the others as they could. Lucius first cast Severus a questioning look, and when he saw that Severus wouldn't look into his eyes he grew really worried.
"Come on Lucius, don't make us wait" said Voldemort.
"As you wish, master" said the elder Malfoy with a small bow and made his way opposite of Voldemort and sat down.
"What is your business with me this early?" asked Voldemort.
"There were rumours, that Potter left the Hogwards, and I couldn't get hold of Severus, so I thought you know something about the happenings" said Lucius "I thought right" he nodded to Harry.
"Potter joined our rank" said Voldemort "as for Severus..." he didn't know what to tell and what to keep secret. Severus solved the problem, by standing up, and showing the Malfoys his pregnant form. He wasn't afraid of Lucius, they were good friends.
"Ohh... I see" asid Lucius" congratulation" he stood up and went around the table to hug Severus. Draco and Narcissa followed his lead and they hugged the potion master too.
"Does that mean, I am gonna be an aunt?" asked the smiling Narcissa.
"If you would like" said Severus.
Voldemort and Harry just watched them with big eyes. This Snape was foreign to them. He was smiling and was at ease with touching.
"Let's eat" said Voldemort "Severus needs to eat more."
"Yeah, you are too thin" said Narcissa and with that he made Severus a big plate with a lot of food.
"I'm gonna send some book over about male pregnancy" said Lucius" if you had told me I would have made sure, that you are all right" Lucius watched Snape questioningly.
"I..." started Severus "didn't think..." he didn't know what to say. He trusted in Lucius, but there was a time, when he trusted the Headmaster too.
"Severus, can you tell why?" asked Lucius. Severus just stared at him silently, but the Malfoy seemed to understand him and nodded, then went back to his food. Draco and Harry still didn't say anything. Draco was to astonished that Severus was pregnant, and that Potter was here eating breakfast with the Dark Lord. Harry was silent, because he didn't understand Severus' behaviour. He was more open with Lucius, then he was with Voldemort or him.
They spent the breakfast in silent, everyone was trying to wrap their mind around the happenings. When they all finished Narcissa and Draco left, because Draco had to go back to school, before somebody realise he is missing. Lucius, Voldemort, Harry and Severus went to the drawing room. Voldemort sat behind his desk, Lucius stood in front of the big mirror, Harry and Severus sat down on the couch together.
"What I don't understand is why you weren't more surprised when Severus revealed that he is pregnant, Mr. Malfoy?" asked Harry. He was rubbing Severus' stomach.
"I knew that Severus was capable of getting pregnant" said Lucius. Both Voldemort and Harry glared at him. Lucius smiled at Severus "He always wanted a family, but the war didn't let him. When we had Draco I offered him that he can leave the Hogwards and live with us, maybe find a good man" he said. Severus leaned closer to Harry and stared out of the window. He remembered the hope, and then the realisation, that he couldn't follow his dream without endangering others.
"Why didn't you follow through with your plan?" asked Voldemort.
"The cause was... you" answered Severus "Dumbledore wouldn't let me go, while you are still alive, and he knew that you are still alive. I didn't want to put them in danger" said Severus.
Voldemort looked at Severus and Harry on the couch in a lazy hug and then he looked at Lucius, who stood so casually and yet paying attention to everything.
"Well now I am really back and I will make some changes" said Voldemort. The others looked at him questioningly.
"My Lord..." started Severus quietly, when Voldemort looked at him, he continued "can I speak with Lucius in the library" he asked. The usual fear was in his eyes, but it was dimmed. Voldemort wanted to ask why, but Harry shook his head.
"Yes, Harry and I will wait here" said Tom.
When the library's door shut behind them Lucius hugged Severus.
"When I heard that you disappeared, I didn't know what to do. Are you all right? Who is the father?" asked Lucius with one breath. Severus chuckled. They was the Lucius that so few know, and the Lucius he trusted.
"I am all right. Because of Dumbledore I couldn't contact with anybody. Fortunately Harry was able to help me out. As for the father..." he faltered, got pale and started trembling.
"Calm down, brother, calm down" said Lucius soothingly "Take your time."
"It was not con...consensual" said Severus. Lucius stopped his movements and stared at his friend.
"What do you mean?" he asked. Severus shook his head and started to move away, but Lucius wouldn't let him.
"Please tell me who did it, and I am gonna make him regret he was born" he said.
"The Dark Lord and Potter promised to avenge me" said Severus.
"I don't care, it is within my right to revenge my family" said Lucius "and you are family, in heart and in blood" said Lucius.
"It was... Dumbledore" said Severus. Lucius was right, they are family. They made the ritual, when they became ten years old to became brothers and in the eyes of the law he was part of the Malfoy family.
"I promise you that I will make him suffer and at the end I will kill him" he said with fire in his eyes. Lucius hugged Severus closer to him.
"What will you do?" asked the blond wizard.
"What do you mean?" asked Severus.
"Would you like to stay here, or come to the Malfoy Manor, or abroad. You can go anywhere you want."
"I would like to stay here" said Severus, and he blushed when Lucius looked down at him.
"Do I need to talk to Mr. Potter about treating you fine?" he asked with a wink.
"Don't you dare!" said Severus "I wouldn't want you to chase him off, like you did with that guy, that fell in love with me."
"Come on brother, he wasn't good enough for you" said Lucius " Mr. Potter on the other hand...
