Corvus and Voldemort lay in their bed, sated and happy after another round of lovemaking. Voldemort ran a hand down Corvus's side where love bites were littered, much like the rest of his body. Corvus had marked him equally though. They were not violently lovers, despite Voldemort's demeanor he wished to only protect and cherish his mate. And his mate, his lovely, gorgeous, not quite sane mate (though he was definitely better than when he had first shown up) had felt enough pain in his short life.

Corvus shifted before slowly opening his vibrant violet eyes and blinking and Voldemort.

"What has you with such a pensive expression love?" Corvus asked.

"Just thinking about my wonderful mate." Voldemort responded before bestowing a passionate kiss on his mate's lips.

"I do…." Corvus was cut off by a sudden explosion coming from the other side of the mansion. "That better not be the twins or I will wring their scrawny little necks" Corvus growled.

"No the wards are broken" Voldemort spoke panicked before waving his wand and dressing them even as he ran out the door.

"What!" Corvus jumped up grabbing his wand and summoning his siblings to him.

"Dominus" The five spoke materializing behind them already running.

"The wards are broken, Luna give me a run-down"

"There are around one hundred people outside, Dumbledore is there as well."

"Understood, Neville…"

"Got it Dominus, Severus and Draco are already creating a barricade and Lucius and Narcissa are taking out as many as they can."

"Good, Voldemort!"

"Yes love"

"Our wands are yours, and I will protect our home."

"I expected no less" Voldemort reached out and gripped Corvus's hand before giving a kiss that rang clearly with its message.

I love you and you better survive this

"Alight you all know the drill!" Corvus spoke once Voldemort released him. "Armas you protect my mate and I, Cor, make sure everyone is healed as fast as you can, animus call out status reports and work with ignis to break a path the Dumbledore."

"YES SIR!" called the five before the broke apart and Voldemort and Corvus were separate as they fought their way through the light wizards.

"Animus!" Corvus called once he spotted Dumbledore.

"On it!" Came the reply before an easy path was blown through those surrounding him.

"Harry what are you doing?!" cried Dumbledore, his merry twinkle gone.

"Harry come back, we can help you!" Hermione called from his side.

"Mate, we miss you we just want you to come home!" added Ron.

Corvus sneered at them before casting Sectumsempra.

Dumbledore blocked it from hitting him however Ron and Hermione were not as lucky and fell to the ground bleeding and dead.

"Harry, calm down we can help." Dumbledore spoke calmly but looked nervous.

"Help me! Help like when you locked me in a dark and lonely prison letting anyone who might hold a grudge against the famous Boy-Who-Lived have a go at me. Like when you broke into my mind without a care!" Corvus snarled.

"Harry…"
"I am not Harry anymore. Harry James Potter is dead! I am Corvus Rodolphus Lestrange mate of Dark Lord Voldemort." Harry growled before sending a barrage of spells at Dumbledore, some hitting their mark others being deflected.

Corvus and Dumbledore exchanged spells while Voldemort, Fred and George kept the enemy's from attacking Corvus. It appeared that Corvus was winning until Dumbledore sent a spell at a distracted Voldemort. The green spell of instant death "Avada Kedavra"

"NO!" Corvus dived for Voldemort even as he returned the spell at Dumbledore. Voldemort turned only to watch in horror as both Dumbledore and his mate were struck down at the same time.

"NO! Corvus!" Voldemort called rushing to his fallen mate.

"My Son!" Bellatrix screamed collapsing in a wide eyed Rodolphus arms.

"Dominus!" Came five calls of grief.

"My Corvus, you can't, I just got you back." Voldemort cradled his limp mate as tears fell down his cheeks.

"And you shall never lose me." Came Corvus's weak voice.

"My mate!" Voldemort hugged Corvus as cheers rang out across the battlefield.
