Inside the Atlas Ward:

Druella and Narcissa had made their way to the attic, not towards the ritual room, but to Druella's private study. "I can't really make sense of these formulas. Here take a look at this Cissy and tell me if you can decipher this." Druella said. Taking the offered sheet of parchment, Narcissa studied it. "The basis of this doesn't seem too complicated. In theory, Moon magic just seems to be hardened light structures fueled by hostile intentions, nothing special. The tricky part is the absorption quality." Narcissa said, matter-of-factly.

"Absorption?" Druella asked. The blonde nodded. "If what I'm reading is right, spells that hit the opponent will drain them of their magic, as well as do damage. I would say magic absorption shouldn't even be possible, if we weren't vampires. That absorption factor is probably why Moon magic is considered dark in the first place." Narcissa explained.

"This sounds like something Andromeda was researching. I want you to consult with her and see if there's any correlation. In the meantime, Bellatrix and I will put up some defensive wards." The matriarch ordered.

"Sounds like a plan. I'd also like to start teaching Hydrus apparation, just in case." A new voice said. Druella and Narcissa turned to see both Bellatrix and Andromeda, who had entered unnoticed. Druella raised an eyebrow. "There's only a week until the next full moon, are you sure you'll be able to manage apparation in a week?" She asked challengingly.

"Our son is talented. He'll have it down in three days. Cissy, when you have the time, I'd also like for you to make him a portkey. If the wards go down, it wouldn't hurt for him to have options of escape." Bellatrix asked, sounding calm. Narcissa just nodded. "I'll craft one for all of us, Grimmauld Place will be the destination. Andy and I were staying there until we got here, so it should still be in good condition."

"If it's not, I call dibs on Kreacher. There are some tests I want to run on elf blood." Andromeda muttered darkly. "That little gremlin is still alive?" Bellatrix asked in surprise. Druella looked back and forth between Bellatrix and Andromeda. "As nice as it is to see you two get along, your punishment still stands. Starting tomorrow any time you want to spend with Hydrus must be approved by me, and either myself or Narcissa must be present." Druella said, her voice deadly serious. She was surprised when her daughters nodded their agreement, barely catching the sly looks they gave each other.

"Seems we've ironed almost everything out. Now, how do we tell him?" Narcissa asked. There was silence in the office.

"We don't. He's still just a boy, he shouldn't need to worry about something like this, not when we're capable of handling it." Druella said. While Andromeda and Narcissa murmured their agreement, Bellatrix shook her head.

"He is going to ask us what's going on, and I refuse to lie to him. It'll be easier to protect Hydrus if he knows the situation is serious, instead of having him question what's going on." Bellatrix argued.

"He doesn't need that stress." Druella countered. Bellatrix looked back at her family; her eyes full of confidence. "He can handle it. and I have full faith that we can handle the situation."

"If we keep him close, I'm pretty sure he won't even complain." Narcissa compromised. The four women all gave the same, inherited smug smile. They knew exactly how close to keep their son. With their meeting adjourned, the quartet separated, going to do their own thing.

"Mummy? Can I stay here for a while? I want to get started cross-referencing this absorption factor." Andromeda asked. Druella nodded.

"I'm going to go silver test the food. Just to make sure there's no infiltration." Narcissa said with an insane gleam in her eyes, pulling a large silver dagger out of nowhere. "Have fun, darling." Druella said. She then turned to look at Bellatrix. "What are you off to do?" She asked.

"I'll explain the situation to our son. Besides, the poor boy hasn't been properly milked since last night, so I'll need to take care of that too." Bellatrix said whilst licking her lips. Druella raised her eyebrow.

"Or, you could put up an alarm based conjuration ward. Argentum Spicula should work." Druella said. It might have been phrased as a suggestion, but Bellatrix knew better. "But mum! I haven't had a drop of his cum all day! Can't I do it afterwards?" Bellatrix whined anyway.

SMACK! The sound reverberated through the room as Druella smacked her daughter on her large ass. Bellatrix let out a low moan at the impact. "No, this is too important to put off, but if you do a good job, I'll let you have a treat. Now go, I'll handle Hydrus." Druella ordered.

Bellatrix huffed and left the room, stomping her feet all as she did so, having a full-blown temper tantrum. Druella merely rolled her eyes before she too left, leaving Andromeda alone who was already deep in her research.

Making her way downstairs to Hydrus's own study, Druella came to a stop outside the door. She knocked as a way to respect his privacy but entered without invitation to subtly enforce her authority. She found Hydrus asleep at his desk with an empty crystal philter. Druella shook her head fondly as she banished the dish back to the kitchen. Looking down she saw Hydrus had been reading a book titled 'Object to Animal Transfiguration Made Easy!"

She frowned a bit as she gently took the book from under his face and placed it back in its proper place. Inanimate objects to animals was a level of transfiguration they had not covered in their lessons. She didn't want Hydrus messing around with magic beyond his understanding. It never turned out well. Druella gently shook her grandson awake, taking a moment to wipe the small trail of drool from his face.

Blinking sleepily and rubbing at his eyes, Hydrus let out a small yawn. "Hi mummy." He greeted. Druella smiled at him before she sat down in a chair on the opposite side of the desk. "Hi yourself, darling. Now, come to mummy." She said gently. Hydrus got up and came to stand in front of her. "Now Hydrus, what have I told you about wearing clothes in the house?" Druella scolded.

"That I wasn't supposed to be wearing anything more than my sleeping things. But I was in the exercise room earlier, I needed a robe with pockets to hold my wand." He tried explaining. With a wave of her wand, Druella transfigured the black robe he was wearing into a wand holster that fit perfectly around his arm, leaving him in just his boxers and undershirt. She raised her eyebrow in response.

"I-uh, I didn't think of that." Hydrus said, just a tad embarrassed. "Clearly." Came Druella's dry response. "Now enough stalling, come here." She demanded. Hydrus climbed into her lap with red cheeks and began to passionately kiss his grandmother. Druella kissed him back just as desperately, greatly enjoying how he was quickly getting erect.

"Before we continue, we need to have a serious talk." Druella said. Hydrus looked at her with a tilt of his head. "Does it have something to do with why everyone was gone all day?" He asked. She nodded, as her fingers began to massage his back, causing him to wiggle and let out a low grunt.

"It does. There's no really easy way of telling you this so I'll make this quick. Pretty soon, probably next week, we're going to be attacked by werewolves. Werewolves who have the ability to control their transformation and can use magic while they are transformed. And they'll be aiming to take you away." Druella confessed.

Hydrus was silent as he processed what Druella told him. Creature studies hadn't been a part of his education so the only thing he knew about werewolves was what he had learned in the muggle world. But if his grandmother was taking this seriously then he figured the danger was legitimate.

"Its me they want?" He asked. Druella nodded at him. "And they're going to attack everyone to get to me?" His question was answered with another nod. Hydrus pursed his lips before he let out a sad sigh. "I'll go pack my things." He said, using the little occlumency he had to stop himself from crying.

"What on earth are you talking about?" Druella asked, confused. "If they're after me, and they're willing to attack you to get to me, the best way to keep you safe would be for me to not be here. I'm sure I can mist my way through the barrier." He explained dejectedly.

"Hydrus, darling, nobody is kicking you out or letting you go anywhere. Us adults have the situation well in hand. We love you and we want to keep you safe just as much as you want to keep us safe, but we can only do that if you listen to what we tell you." Druella whispered into his ear. She let loose her aura, blasting the boy with the weight of her feelings.

"I don't want anyone to get hurt. At the very least let me help, I've really gotten the hang of the stabbing curse." He said childishly, burying himself into Druella's chest. "It'll be okay darling, but if you really want to help, you'll do what we tell you without question. We just wanted to make sure you're aware of the danger." She said patiently, as she continued to hold her grandson in a loving embrace.

"Ok. Thank you mummy." Hydrus agreed. Druella gave him another kiss and let her hand fall south as she gripped his semi. "Hydrus? When was the last released?" She asked, suddenly stern. The boy averted his eyes as he answered. "Last night, when we were all together."

"And how often did Andromeda and I say you should cum?" Druella asked, her voice steely. Hydrus cringed just a bit. "At least once every two hours, mummy." He answered nervously.

"So why didn't you go to the shed and use a whore? That's what they're there for." She asked, still serious. The boy chewed the inside of his cheek as he thought. He had actually forgotten that particular rule but knew that if he said that it could lead to him being punished.

"I wanted to save it for everyone. You, mum, momma, and big sister. I know how much everyone enjoys it, so I didn't want to waste it on some random bitch." Hydrus said, thinking quickly. Druella's violet eyes lit up with dark amusement.

"Oh? Is that so? I think you forgot. But I'm willing to overlook it just this once, on one condition." She said, her voice filled with triumph.

"What condition?" Hydrus asked nervously. Druella grinned in victory. "From now on you have to address both of your aunties as what you just called them."

Hydrus blinked. He hadn't even realized his slip of tongue. "Oh shit." He thought to himself. Hydrus knew very well what would happen once he called Andromeda momma and Narcissa big sister. He also knew that Druella knew that he knew. Which meant either way, he was looking at a minimum of forty-eight hours of no magic practice, because there was no way his aunts were letting him leave the bedroom. His dick throbbed eagerly at the thought.

"Deal." Hydrus said, feeling like he just sold soul to the devil. "Such a good boy." Druella purred. "Now, let's get you nice and empty again." Druella restarted her assault, channeling magic into her hand as she continued to stroke her grandson's penis.

Hydrus's brain turned to mush from his grandmother's touch. No one else could make him feel as good as she did, not even Bellatrix. That was a secret he'd take to his grave, however. Druella and Hydrus's magic were so compatible with each other that if one were to close their eyes and rely on just sensing magic signatures, they would be almost indistinguishable from one another.

Standing up, Druella cleared the desk with a wave of her wand before she conjured a bucket. She placed her grandson on the desk before she slowly undressed herself, teasing him all the while. His rocked back and forth as he stared hungrily, eager for her touch again.

Druella smiled lustfully as she held the bucket level with his tip. "Cum, Hydrus. Cum for mummy." With just her words and her aura, Druella made her grandson orgasm hard.

"Ahhh! I can't stop! It's too much!" He cried out as he came, thick blast after blast impacting the side of the bucket. He had filled it about halfway before his orgasm petered out, and he collapsed on his back as his balls clenched and unclenched.

"Look how much there is! You always cum so much for me Hydrus, good boy!" Druella praised. Putting the bucket to her lips, she tilted her head back and drank from it greedily. She let out a moan as she licked her lips. "So good. I think I'll save the rest of this for later." With a wave of her wand the cum-bucket was banished away.

"Now that that's out of the way, mummy can have her fun." Druella positioned herself on top of the boy and sank down on him, slowly. "Fuck! Mummy! I'm-!" Hydrus cried out as he came again, this time inside her.

Druella didn't stop, however, she was lost in her own lust. Due to their compatibility, she orgasmed just from penetration, and Hydrus filling her up only drove her more wild. She leaned down and kissed her grandson, tonguing his throat. The two lovers continued to mate, their sensitivity to the max, as each upward thrust Hydrus made into Druella was enough to send the both of them over the edge every time, magic completely doing away with the boy's refractory downtime. He gave one more powerful upward thrust, seeding his grandmother yet again before his eyes rolled back. Druella was in a similar state of being fucked into unconsciousness. Thanks to being a full-grown Supreme Vampire, Druella was first to recover. Using her last bit of energy, she apparated them to bed.

Outside the Wards: Undisclosed Location

Orchid Parkinson, leader of the Lunalight werewolf pack, was not happy. From her contacts in the ministry, she had learned that Greyback had been fed a lethal dose of veritaserum, forcing him to reveal his many secrets. It's also how she learned that the werewolf packs of Magical UK had been exterminated. She was now further than ever from her goal of an all-werewolf society. Her only hope of salvaging the situation now was to capture Hydrus. If he was within her grasp, no one could move against her. If she held the boy hostage and threatened bodily harm, then in theory, the death eaters should be paralyzed. They wouldn't be able to help, because doing so would put the boy in danger, but they couldn't let the boy remain a hostage either, their vows wouldn't let them. They would be forced to remain neutral.

Of course, that all depended on if she could actually get a hold of the boy in the first place. Orchid had a plan for that, but she needed something first.

"Whiteheart. Please take a seat." Orchid said, her tone genial. Whiteheart sat down and the instant he did so a runic magic circle glowed beneath him, and he was shackled in mythril chains. "What is the meaning of this!" The mysterious werewolf exclaimed. Orchid steepled her hands together as she looked on, bored.

"This, my slippery friend, is an intervention. You see, I know exactly who you are. I know you were doing odd jobs for Greyback in exchange for protection, or at least that was your cover story. Correct me if I'm wrong but your main goal was to recruit some of the other werewolves to your side, wasn't it? At least until you heard about my top-secret Eclipse Magic, then you got updated instructions." Orchid pulled out a small rectangular mirror and placed it on the table separating them. Whiteheart paled considerably at the sight of it. Orchid grinned predatorily.

"I'm going to make you a deal, Remus." Orchid said. Remus looked back at her; his eyes guarded.

"What sort of deal?" He asked cautiously.

"You give me your nifty little invisibility cloak, and I'll teach you how to use Eclipse Magic to control your transformations." She offered with a devious look in her eye. Remus shook his head. "I'm afraid I can't do that." He said, squaring his jaw and preparing for the worst.

"I know." Orchid said, a winning smile on her face. "Which is why I took the liberty of taking it from you." From her pocket she pulled out a cloak that shimmered with a silvery material. "Your mission was a failure, Whiteheart. Kind of on brand for you I'd say." Orchid smiled cruelly. She waved her hand and destroyed the communication mirror with a bolt of pure moonlight. She stood up with a stretch. "I'd say it was nice knowing you, Whiteheart, but it really wasn't, you were kind of an annoying bitch." Then Orchid whistled.

"Primrose! Pansy! Dinnertime!" She called out for her twin daughters. They entered the room looking excited. The two girls were in their hybrid state, with wolf ears on the top of their heads, fur covering their legs and forearms, and tails that wagged happily from the small of their backs. Orchid kissed her girls on the lips deeply, licking their canines.

"Mummy has to go handle some business, I want the two of you in bed by the time I get back, you understand?" Orchid asked, a genuine smile on her face.

"Yes mum!" The excited confirmation came from the two girls. Orchid left the room as the twins began to fully transform and Remus's screams from being eaten alive echoed off the walls.

Orchid hummed a tune as her plans started to come together.
