Chapter 46 Homecomings, Unexpected Occurrences

Draco smiled where he sat on the foot of their bed in Malfoy Manor, his gray eyes soft with love as he watched Harry sleeping peacefully, his eyes closed where his head was tilted to the side on the pillows, his chest rising and falling with his deep, even breaths, his left hand resting palm down on his large belly. They had woken up the morning after their journey home from Hogwarts, unpacking their clothes and setting Hedwig's cage on the left side of the room on Harry's new dresser, since Draco's dresser was on the right side of the bed.

They hadn't unpacked any of the baby's things, though, because they didn't know if they would need to, as there was always the possibility that she wouldn't arrive until they were back at Hogwarts. Draco finally got up reluctantly, moving to the head of the bed to place a gentle, loving kiss to Harry's forehead, pulling back to stare down at him tenderly for a moment before leaving the room to go get them some food, because he wanted to be back with it before Harry woke from his nap.


When Viktor, Ron, Dani and Wallace finally reached his castle in Bulgaria after Apparating through several Wizard checkpoints where Viktor had to prove his identity and Citizenship and state the business of the three men with him, the man carried the still unconscious Dani, though he was sleeping peacefully now, to his bedroom, laying him down on top of the dark brown silk sheets as Ron and Wallace watched in concern.

"Come, love," Viktor said then, taking Ron by the hand gently. "He'll be alright. I'll introduce you to my siblings."

"Okay," Ron replied with a smile and a nod, flashing Wallace a questioning look.

"I'll stay with him," he said quietly, nodding toward Dani's sleeping form. "You two go on. There will be plenty of time for me to meet them later."

"As you wish," Viktor agreed with a nod before leading Ron from the room, shutting the door behind them quietly. "They're probably in the playroom."

They walked together down the stone corridor, which was lit by magically powered torches, held within old fashioned metal wall brackets, Viktor leading him through an open doorway several feet down the corridor from his room. Inside the large room was a fair haired nineteen year old female with blue green eyes and a sunny smile, as well as two sandy haired boys of seventeen, one with light green eyes, and one with light blue.

"Viktor!" the girl gasped when she looked up from her computer and saw him, setting the laptop aside to run into his open arms and hug him tightly before releasing him to say, "We've missed you!"

The boys were more reserved with their greetings, though whether that was because of his presence, or just their usual way, Ron couldn't tell, but they did come over and hug their brother, just doing so at the same time instead of taking turns.

"I've missed you all, too," Viktor said with a smile. "Kids, this is my boyfriend, Ron Weasley. Ron, these are my sister and brothers, Viktoria, Vincient, and Vibby. Father liked the letter v quite a lot," Viktor explained to Ron because of the look on his freckled face.

"I, um.. I can see that.. At least you all have different features. We were all pretty much the same in my family. Thin, red-haired and freckled, at least until we hit puberty. Before that it was difficult to tell whether you were looking at a boy or a girl, never mind what name went with which kid. Of course, Ginny's the only girl." Ron was surprised when the four of them started to laugh. "What?"

"You're funny, Ron," Viktoria said in explanation, well Vincient and Vibby nodded while they continued to giggle quietly behind their hands. "How many siblings do you have?"

"Well, um.. Charlie was first, then Bill, then Percy, George and Fred, then me, then Ginny."

"Wow," Viktoria said in surprise. "That's a lot of kids.."

"Yeah, it is," Ron said in agreement. "I think one, or maybe two, would be enough for me.."


"Mmmm.." Harry almost moaned as he bit into the sandwich that he had just assembled himself using some of the foods that Draco had retrieved from the kitchens and brought to their room on a large platter, which now sat in-between them both on the large bed while they ate. "Oh, Godric, this is so amazing.. Thank you, Dray.."

"You're welcome, pet," he said in reply, smiling before taking a bite of his own sandwich, chewing slowly and swallowing before leaning over the tray to kiss Harry's mouth briefly.

At least, that was the plan, but soon the kiss became more, the food forgotten for now as they both set their sandwiches down on the tray, Draco pushing it to the other side of the bed, never breaking their kiss as he did so, only pulling back reluctantly when they both needed air.

"Oh, Dr-Draco.." Harry panted, trembling when the blonde pressed his forehead against Harry's where he lay beside him on the mattress. "I l-love you, so m-much.."

"I love you, too, baby," Draco said with a soft smile.

Then he eagerly dove back in for more kisses.


About an hour and a half later, Viktor and Ron left the playroom to head back to his room together, slipping inside and closing the door quietly. Wallace was curled up on the bed sleeping beside Dani, who was now awake and propped up against the pillows, and he smiled at them when they entered, though he still looked pale as Ron sat down on his right, Viktor on his left.

"How are you feeling, Dani?" Ron asked him softly, reaching out to take Dani's right hand with both of his gently.

"I feel better, Ron," Dani said truthfully, smiling at Ron, obviously feeling comforted by his concern for him. "Still a little weak. It'll most likely be a few days, possibly a week, before I recover fully."

"What exactly happened that you have to recover from?" Viktor asked him.

"I've lost my Immortality."

"But.." Ron said slowly, his face flushing a deep red as he spoke. "I thought you told me that that would happen when I.. found physical release inside you."

"Yes, that is how it would have happened, but.. When I looked at Viktor.. My body recognized it's mate, and so I lost my Immortality immediately right there. I've been Immortal for so long now, that losing that.. And so abruptly.. It was quite.. jarring to my system."

"Then.. I'm not your Mate after all?.." Ron asked softly, pain in his eyes now as he looked at Daniel.

"Oh, Ron, no, no, no," Dani said quickly, needing to reassure him of his place in his life. "You are my mate, I've no doubt of that. But, so is Viktor. Both of you are my mates."

"So.. I'm not enough for you?.."

"Oh, Ron, no.. Don't ever think that, please. You are enough for me, sweetie. The Three-Way connection isn't about the worth of each individual in the relationship, it's.. It's about how much more we can be together. How much more we can offer each other if we have Viktor to love, protect and guide us. Viktor is already your Dom.. Why not mine as well? Of course, it is his choice, he can always refuse to love me physically, but.. It's really not a good idea, as the Bond would be left incomplete. It could potentially have dire consequences. This would not have happened if it wasn't meant to be."

"What sort of dire consequences?" Viktor interjected into the conversation now.

"I could die."

Wallace yawned just then, stretching on the bed to wake up further before sitting up, blinking at the three of them through sleep blurred eyes. "Wow.." he said with a slight grin. "Man do I have to pee. Where's your bathroom, Viktor?"

"I'll show you the way. We can finish this discussion later," he said to the other two males.

Ron and Dani nodded, and Viktor slipped out of the room again, this time followed by Wallace, who shut it behind them quietly. Viktor led Wallace to the bathroom, which was just a few doors beyond the playroom, waiting for him while he finished, then led him over to the still open doorway to the playroom.

"Come, I'll introduce you to my siblings now since we're already out and about."

"Okay," Wallace agreed quietly, following him inside, first seeing a young blonde woman with blue green eyes.

"Viktoria, this is Wallace. He's a friend. Wallace, this is my sister Viktoria."

"Nice to meet you, Viktoria."

"Nice to meet you, too, Wallace," she said with an honest smile before turning her attention back to her book after a moment where it lay open on her lap.

"And these two little troublemakers over here," Viktor teased, a fond look on his dark face as he gestured to two young sandy haired boys nearby. "Are my brothers, Vincient, and the littlest one, Vibby. Guys, this is Wallace."

They turned to look at Wallace, and what occurred next happened so fast that Wallace felt dazed and weak in the aftermath, though what happened wasn't visible to the eyes. When their light blue and light green eyes met Wallace's blue ones, they flashed to their actual dark, piercing forest green color for a brief moment, but it was long enough. Wallace was left reeling, swaying on his feet a little as the boys ran to him, enfolding him in their arms together, stating their Claim over him instinctively together.

"Ours!"
