Chapter four

'So it's a good thing that Harry and Charlie both left, until Ginny can calm down. She's been saying that Harry's been stubborn, he doesn't want to get serious straight away and she does. She also said she also wants to marry in about a year, Ginny wants all that, where Harry wanted to take things slow and take his time. So she's not going to get over this for a while.' Arthur said.

'No, she won't and probably why Harry wanted to take things slow, he's inner self might have sensed a change coming. I haven't read a lot on Morphixen's, I just remember reading a bit about them when I was a student.'

'You're positive that Charlie's in no danger Kingsley?' George asked.

'I'm positive, Harry will protect Charlie, but never hurt him and Charlie will only want to please Harry, in every way.'

'As Harry turned into a dragon, because Charlie loves dragons, does that mean he can do whatever a dragon can, more than an animagi I mean?'

'Yes, they literally become that animal, so when Harry learns to control this, he will be able to fly, breath fire, everything a dragon can. It was amusing though, there's Harry, a quiet bloke really, on the small size for a man and he turns into this massive, fierce creature. Charlie's the tough man that works with dangerous and large creatures, he's well-built and a decent size and he turns into a stag, which are pretty harmless, and well, cute. It's like there animal forms are opposite to their manly personalities.'

'You're right Kingsley, Charlie as a stag, not something we expected. Even though Harry's dragon was smaller than a normal one, is that because he's a man, so the dragon sort of fits him?'

'Yes, as you saw, Harry's dragon was large, about three times the five of Harry, but considering how big dragons are, that was a small one, but just as lethal as any dragon. I'll have to ask Charlie what type that was, I was never really into dragons.'

'Well if anyone would know, it would be Charlie. But are those two really, well, shagging?' George asked.

'Yes, they are mating in every way that means. I do know they can as men but they also can as their creature forms. When the change hits, they need to mate instantly, it confirms their bond and joins them together in every way. That's all I know on Morphixen's, but Hermione will be able to tell you more when she gets back. Anyway, I should go and start contacting everyone from the DA that's on this list and work on a date to meet. Let me know if Hermione finds out anything I should know, but I think it's all fine and you don't have to be concerned. The main thing with Morphixen's is they will protect their mate with their life and will never put them in danger.'

'That's good to know Kingsley, we'll talk to you later.' Arthur said.

'So what do you think Ginny will do?' George asked.

'Hard to say right now, but we'll explain more once we know more. I'm like everyone else, I've never heard of a Morphixen.' Arthur said.

'By the end of the day, we'll all know everything there is, with Hermione researching them. Once she's read up on something, she can repeat it word for word. It used to be annoying, but it's going to come in handy now.'

'Yeah, it will George, but I think I'm still in shock and in more than one way. First Harry as a dragon, then they knew what sex the baby is and who had a shag this morning. I wonder what else they can tell or sense, whatever it is they do,' Bill said.

'I'm sure we'll find out Bill. So why don't all of you start on some breakfast, while we wait for Hermione and Ron.'

Even though everyone started eating, they never stopped talking about Harry and Charlie, or what Ginny might do and that worried all of them. After they finished eating, Fleur, Bill and Angelina helped clean away the breakfast dishes they went back to their discussion.

Two hours later, Hermione and Ron walked back inside with a stack of books. Hermione instantly started reading; even Bill decided to look through one of the books. Four hours later, long after lunch was finished, Harry and Charlie stepped into the kitchen, Harry dressed but Charlie in his father's robes, both grinning before Charlie sat and pulled Harry onto his lap.

'We haven't got long, I need to get my stuff,' Charlie said.

'Stuff, what stuff?' Arthur asked.

'All my clothes and stuff, Harry and I are going to be living together. Then we need to go home and repair a few things, clean up the mess we made of the house.'

'We did some damaged, didn't we Charlie.' Harry grinned then started to lick the bite marks on Charlie's neck again.

'No, we need food Harry, more sex later.' Charlie pulled his neck away from Harry who dropped his lip.

'Oh, alright Charlie, anything you say, but we can later though, right?'

'Yes we can, it's good you know who's in charge here babe.'

'I just read about that,' Hermione looked up, 'Even though Harry is the Morphixen, a pure Morphixen and Charlie is just the recipient of his venom, Charlie will be the dominant partner. It doesn't always work like that, but Charlie is older and larger than Harry, so he becomes the head of the family you could say, it's like that, because Harry is the smaller and younger of the two.'

'Oh, so Charlie will dominate me, I like the sound of that,' Harry grinned again making Charlie laugh where everyone just kept staring at the two men as they kept snuggling with Harry curled up on Charlie's lap.

'Is there anything that should concern us Hermione, about either of their safety?' Arthur asked.

'No, the danger is to anyone else that tries to hurt either of them. As Harry is the pure Morphixen, he's the stronger and the most dangerous creature. He will use that to always protect his mate, but so will Charlie. As you saw earlier, stag's do have large antlers that can do some damage. They will always protect the other, it's part of their bond. Now Kingsley mentioned that Morphixen's will die on the same day, that's true, there's a lot of stories of this happening over history and most all died of old age. A male couple died over a hundred, the older male was one hundred and fifty seven years old, the young partner died when he was one hundred and fifty one years old, but on the same day and at the exact same time. There are a lot more of those, but there is one couple, a man and a woman who died young. Before the magical world had a potion to cure the flu, they both fell victim to that at the same time and died from that, the man was forty nine years old, the woman was forty three years old. It's all linked, if one gets sick so does the other one, if one dies, so does the other one.'

'Hang on, so if Harry dies, then Charlie will as well?' Bill asked.

'Yes, their bonded in every way, their life essence are joined.'

'Well the wars over, so there's not really any danger out there anymore, so I think Harry and Charlie will live a long time.' Ron said.

'But Harry's about to become an auror, that's a high risk job, even without the death eaters and Voldemort.'

'Yes that's true Mrs. Weasley, but Harry being a Morphixen will actually help keep him safe. He can sense if there is danger around him before it happens, he can even sense dark magic, dark potions, anything that is considered a dark object. If say Draco Malfoy was here right now, Harry would sense his dark mark whether he knew it was there or not. He can also transform into his dragon which if you were facing a dragon, you know you wouldn't survive a fight with one. Their hides are strong, they can withstand all spells even if it might hurt them. The killing curse would cause pain but not kill a dragon.'

'That's true, when we've had a badly injured dragon, we have to use a very strong potion to put a dragon to sleep, meaning kill it. That doesn't happen very often, but if a large dragon broke it's legs, it would die a slow and painful death, the potion is the better way to go, kinder as well. So what you're saying Hermione is Harry is literally a dragon in every way when he transforms?'

'Yes, just like you become a stag in every way, and this might shock both of you, well, it might shock everyone. But as Harry is the, sorry Harry, the female of the partnership, it's the only way to describe this, Harry can get pregnant and lay an egg, but it won't be a dragon but a baby. It's all explained here, once the egg is out, the mother, or dragon will break the egg so the baby is released, then transform back to his normal self.'

'You mean I'll give birth, like a woman, bloody hell,' Harry sat there staring at Hermione, he didn't know what to think of this latest news. He loved that he was a dragon and he loved having Charlie with him, but to actually give birth was something he wasn't sure he could handle.
