Rating: M
Warnings: Veela!Draco, Vampire!Severus, Fae!Harry, mpreg, submissive creatures, dominant creatures, mild violence, slash, OCs, after school, AU, threesomes and whatever else we two demented authors think up.
Summary: Life seems to be okay, but when you find out you have to mate, it only gets stranger. Isn't a person meant to only have one mate? What does it mean when you've got two? What do you do when only one is the submissive? Well, three people are to find out soon.
Notes: This is a new header now, as Tiger has changed her style a bit. But the main part of information is that we are trying to make some parts as believable as possible. This is also a warning, though we think people have realized by now, this is not a fic for people who like Hermione. Also, there will be more pairings appearing in this story; it will just take time to show up.
Chapter 14
The rest of the month had passed without incident; Harry was getting stronger and also larger. He was now two months along at the beginning of December. Poor Harry felt like a blimp as he often put it, but this only amused his mates and Ron to no end. At that particular moment Harry was pushing himself into a sitting position in the bed, wanting to get up and eat breakfast. He found that as he progressed throughout his pregnancy he ate even more, it was amusing the amount of food he would consume. It somewhat worried Harry at times, but everyone assured him that it was fine. Right at that moment Severus walked in with a tray of food for breakfast, smiling at Harry. The vampire found his mate's antics amusing, and plus it was a Saturday and that meant they had the day free, as long as they weren't interrupted.
Severus had just placed the tray on Harry's lap and was about to sit next to his mate when a loud banging came from the door, as it slammed open and against the wall. Severus left the bedroom to see what the fuss was about. He saw Draco and Ron standing in the middle of the living room. "What is going on that you two had to come in here as if Voldemort and the devil were after you?" he asked them both as they caught their breath.
Ron was the first to catch his breath. "The paper this morning. There's an article in it about Hermione's trial." He held up the paper and Severus snatched it from him. He opened the paper to the article to see what it was about. Draco was also panting in the process. He had to hold onto Ron's arm to make sure that he didn't fall over. It wasn't often that Draco went running like that. In fact, the last time he had done such a thing was back in first year with the Forbidden Forest incident. Severus just ignored the two in favor of reading the paper.
Who Needs Enemies when You have Friends like These
The final day of the trial of Hermione Granger for her unprovoked attack on the Saviour of the Wizarding World Harry Potter has taken place. Harry Potter, on his seventeenth birthday, was found out to be a Fae creature (to know more turn to page 6); he has recently mated to two males, both magical creatures themselves, their names are not allowed to be printed at this time. The young Hermione Granger had been a friend of Harry Potter since his first year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was heard to comment that the relationship between the triad is wrong and that Fae creatures should be terminated, Muggles grew up believing these things, though no Muggleborn has thought that since coming to the Wizarding world. (For more information on Muggle Fae text turn to page 11)
The trial took place over a three day period where they called in a few people and witnesses to these events. Among those people were Ronald Weasley, best friend and supposed Heart Brother to Harry Potter. Madam Pomfrey, who has been looking over Mr. Potter for some time, Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts and one Severus Snape, a man who has on numerous occasions during the last school year helped Mr. Potter with transitioning to a Fae. The verdict that was given by the Wizengamot during her trial was a sentence to Azkaban with a Dementors kiss within the next six months. The reason for this is to see if Mr. Potter forgives her at anytime. This writer believes that this she should have just been given the kiss automatically, but it cannot be changed until they are positive that Mr. Potter is well enough to make sure everything is the way they wants it.

"I think we should give this to Harry so he can read what is going on with her. She was our best friend for a long time," Ron said as he sat down on the couch. "I think he may even need to see her sometime soon before she is given the kiss. He will need to make peace with that part of the past if nothing else," he added as an after thought as he watched his best friend's mates come over to the couch and join him.
Severus shook his head and sighed. "I know you're right." He was going to check on Harry, but he found him leaning against the door. He raised an eyebrow at Harry. "Aren't you supposed to be in bed eating breakfast?" Harry just glared at him slightly and shook his head. He then sighed and walked over to Severus and Draco. His pajamas made his stomach visible, but he sat on Severus' lap. Severus sighed. "You heard the whole thing, didn't you?" Harry nodded. He wasn't speaking at all; all he did was cuddle into Severus and grab onto Draco's sleeve. He also grabbed onto Ron's sleeve. He wasn't letting any of them go.
Draco cuddled the three of them from one side as Ron did the same from the other. "Do you want to read the article before we talk some more, it may help clear a few things up?" Draco asked as he laid his head against Severus' shoulder. He was absently rubbing a hand along Harry's back, helping to soothe the ache that was now almost always there.
Harry gave a small sigh as he felt the hand rub against his back. He leaned into the hand and felt another on his stomach. It was Severus' hand. "No…I don't want to read the article. I know what it's going to say. Hermione's going to Azkaban and then she'll be receiving the Dementors Kiss at a later date." This shocked Severus a bit. Harry looked up at him. "The ministry sent me a letter about the verdict yesterday. So I already knew it." He cuddled into them more and just let out a sigh once again. He wasn't in the mood to really deal with the mess, but that was typical.
Severus placed a gently kiss on Harry's lips. "I know you do not want to deal with this just yet Harry, but you have to soon. If you wish to see her then say so, if you wish never to think of her again, don't, it is entirely up to you," he told the young Fae, hoping that it would help him decide what he should do. "And the next time you get such a letter, tell us so we won't be blind sided, it is most disconcerting to know that you already knew what is to happen the vile witch."
Harry smiled slightly. "You do that to me all the time." He nuzzled Severus' neck. "I mean, you knew I was pregnant and didn't tell me." Ron looked at Severus at that statement. He hadn't expected that little sentence. Severus just groaned. Harry giggled slightly. He had been doing more of that of late and it was a little strange. In fact, Severus and Draco had begun showing up with more interesting appendages because they were telling Harry to stop giggling a lot.
Ron smirked as Harry started to giggle, he felt the lilting voice to be magical and it always lifted his spirits, but it had a somewhat different affect on the Fae's mates. Draco was about to say something about Harry and his giggling about how it could be quiet it for a little while. "It is nice to see the surprise on your face in those instances," Severus defended himself.
Harry looked at Severus with his irresistible look, he smiled softly. "And I like getting you back." He was then kicked by his kids and he snuggled into Severus some more. Ron shook his head; there was a tapping on Severus' door. Draco looked at that and raised an eyebrow. Walking over to the door, he stood up and opened it. An Owl flew in and dropped a letter at Draco's feet. That was quite odd. The owl landed on the back of the couch next to Severus' head. Severus glared at the bird. Draco bent over and picked the letter up, his eyes widening when he realized who the handwriting belonged to.
He opened the letter and read what it contained quickly. He became pale as he finished reading the letter. "Oh no, oh no," he whispered to himself, even though both Severus and Harry could hear the words. Draco fell to the floor, his strength giving out on him. "Why now?" he questioned aloud, his voice saturated with worry and fear.
Ron stood up and picked the letter up. He was confused as to why Draco was acting as bad as he was. He didn't read the letter, as he wasn't rude. He took a deep breath and kneeled in front of Draco. "Draco, what's wrong?" Harry was pushing himself up from Severus' lap to also check on Draco. It wasn't everyday that the boy would just collapse to his kneels like that. There was quite obviously something wrong. Severus also stood up, steadying Harry. The boy hadn't completely gotten use to his different centre of gravity. Ron had moved to rubbing Draco's back to get the boy to calm down and begin breathing normally enough to allow him a chance to even tell them what happened.
Draco looked into Ron's blue eyes and answered, "My father knows, he knows about Harry, Severus and me," he stated simply. "He wants me away from Hogwarts and away from Sev and Harry. I can't go, I couldn't, and it would kill me being away from them." Just the thought of not being able to see his mates was already hurting the young Veela.
Harry got Severus to help him to the floor and he hugged Draco. "You're not going anywhere Draco." He was holding onto the Veela. Draco sat there for a moment before he hugged Harry back, or at least attempted to. He sighed and held onto Harry. The kids suddenly kicked again, making Draco pull back. He looked down at Harry's rounded stomach and rubbed it lovingly. Severus also hugged Draco, letting the boy know that both his mates were there for him. Ron smiled and joined in on the hug. He was their brother-in-law as he saw it and he knew that Draco needed the support. He then pulled back and watched them continue. Harry pulled back after a moment and leaned back, his hands being used to prop him up.
"Me and Sev will talk to him make him see that being with us is the best thing for you, and try and get him to accept that we love each other deeply." Harry smiled as he watched Severus hold onto Draco, rocking the young and frightened Veela gently to soothe the worries that now marred the young man.
Severus kissed the back of Draco's head. "He's right about that. He can't take you away from us. I guarantee that." He was keeping Draco pulled against his chest and all that was happening was that the boy relaxed into the older man. There was something strange about how Draco was acting, but there was also the fact that the boy was being forced to possibly give up the one thing that he would love more than anything in the world. He reached out and touched Harry's stomach again. Severus rubbed Draco's shoulders. "Nothing will take you away from our family." He kissed him again. Ron stood up and carefully walked out of the room, leaving the three alone. None of them noticed. Draco just let out a small sigh and relaxed into Severus more.
Severus picked Draco up and went into the bedroom. He laid the young Veela down on the bed. He then went back to help Harry up off the floor and took him into the bedroom as well. The young blonde was shaking slightly as he could not see his mates and was frightened that they had been taken away from him. When he saw that Severus and Harry had returned, he breathed a sigh of relief. They both noticed how shaken up their mate was about the letter his father had sent him. Lying down on either side of the young blonde, they hoped that with the both of them, they would be able to help soothe and calm him.
Draco grabbed onto Severus and Harry, holding them. Harry cuddled up close to Draco and wrapped his arm around the boy's waist. He was breathing slowly and kissed Draco's cheek. Draco cuddled up to Severus and Severus had his arm around the both of them. This was the first time Draco was in the middle of the two, but he needed it. He was breathing slowly and his eyes were closed, but he didn't have much to say. Harry nuzzled Draco's neck and held onto his arm. He knew that Fae could bring a calming air to their mates, but only them, and family of course. Draco didn't take much longer to calm down with Harry's presence. Severus' presence also helped, he gave both of them a kiss and ran his fingers through Draco's blonde locks.
"Thank you both," Draco said, as he was calm now, thanks to his mate's influence. "I just hope that he doesn't disrupt things with us too much, and that he listens to us," Draco said as he leaned his head against Severus' shoulder. Harry kissed the back of Draco's neck. They could see that the young man was tired after the emotional upheaval of the morning. Harry soothed Draco as Severus watched the blonde's pale blue eyes close in sleep. Harry and Severus smiled at each other and settled back down to sleep.
A/N: sorry this took so long, editing was the last thing on my mind (Tiger AKA: Black Kitten.) So no blaming Duo-chan, all my fault. Either way, we appreciate all of you who have waited for this chapter. We hope you enjoy it.
Duochan here, I am sorry about my own fics though. Not having much time or the inspiration to write at the moment. Though I hope to try again really soon.
