It felt amazing to see and feel Victor's triumph as he lifted up the Golden trophy with a snitch floating in and out of it at the top area. She sent him pride and love through their bond and then it was time for them all to leave and make it back through the sea of people heading for the campgrounds. They'd just got back to the tent when they heard the first bangs and screams that suddenly broke the joyful atmosphere of the campsite.
She felt her panic as well as Victor's, as Mr Weasley ordered them to stick together and leave to go home to the Burrow. It wasn't until they spotted the Death Eaters she felt fear when they reached the woods firing off spells as people were aiming in all directions through their panic to get out and away from the group of Death Eaters making their way through the campsite.
Thankfully they all made it through to the woods, and that's when Viktor made an appearance behind her. And took her into his arms and left, before the others even turned around to see. When she opened her eyes, she found herself in a moonlit, living room with an ocean view. His hands roamed over her body looking for any sign of injury and, as she leaned her head back against his shoulder, enjoying the view of the waves dancing in the moonlight.
Viktor turned her around and attacked her lips as relief and safety took over the bond. His fingers threaded through her hair and she his as they held onto each other tightly. A strong need erupted between them, as things heated up and she knew that things were going to change completely from this moment onwards, her life wasn't just hers any more, but his! And his is hers just as much. The energy in the room was nothing, she had ever felt before, and couldn't even form it into words if she tried.
The next thing she knew is her back is on soft bedding and moaned when she suddenly realised they are both somehow butt naked, and felt every inch of him pressed against her. After that, everything was a blur and amazing sensations and being able to feel what your partner is feeling, made it even more special, she almost cried when Viktor poured everything he is feeling into their bond as he entered her for the first time. His eyes showed her his feelings, and once she was ready to move, their bodies moved in sync together, as if they'd been lovers for years and years, it's a special moment.
When they came something primal took over her as Viktor picked up his pace and marked her again, she bit down on his neck and they both released together. He pressed kisses all over her face as they rode out the after-waves of pure bliss. Sometime later knocking on the door made them both jump, when they had fallen asleep after round two. An angry Bulgarian female voice broke through their sleepy bliss and her mate groaned.
"My mother…" he mumbled into her hair.
"FUCK! I need to contact the Weasleys, to let them know I'm okay." She tried getting up but her man's grip tightened around her.
"VIKTOR ZUSE KRUM, GET YOUR ASS OUT NOW! Don't make me come in there, young man and drag your asses out…" she paused, "you know I will." He groaned.
"Leave the man alone, woman! He's just found his mate, you know what we were like. Bet they are wondering how we knew…" Viktor suddenly shot up after hearing that one and the shock she felt coming from him, made her panic slightly.
"Viktor?" She asked him in a tone she didn't even recognise, as he turned to stare at her, a tornado of emotions rocketing through their bond. She sat up, revealing her breasts as the covers slid down, and that snapped him out of and led to round three.
They could hear the shouting of multiple voices on the other side of the door but lost in their own world, they did not care. Viktor led her to the bathroom that's thankfully a part of his room, and they freshened up, stealing a few kisses.
"Shit! How old are you, Hermione?" He suddenly asked her and she hadn't thought to ask him that either, and felt shocked.
"Technically I should be fourteen but due to my use of a time-turner last year, for extra study, I am going to be sixteen in September, and that's been changed on the system. You?" She felt his admiration and relief, as he handed her a towel.
"Eigheen! I will be nineteen in April."
"Not that it would bother me, but at least we don't have a huge age gap," she said.
"True, thankfully your use of time, has helped make our relationship more acceptable, due to almost being of age:"
"ARE YOU TWO IDIOTS DONE? I WANT TO MEET MY NEW DAUGHTER-IN-LAW!" She froze as Viktor's mother said this, and felt his shock at her words.
"You forgot about that part of the mating bond didn't you son?" An amused voice said on the other side of the door. "And stop shouting Veronica, they aren't death."
"We also have both Ministers of Magic here, and Arthur and Ginny Weasley." Hermione felt her cheeks redden and eyes widen as Veronica said this.
"How?" Hermione asked in shock, as Viktor handed her his Quidditch top and boxers she had to tie in a knot.
"Our family tree would have automatically added you when I marked you and alerted them of the change through a family spell. So they would have known I found my mate. I had genuinely forgotten about the marriage claws in our family. One of my ancestors made it so that we Krum men are automatically married once we find our mate. It ensures our woman's safety and her position by our side."
"WOW! Wouldn't the rest of the Magical community know, due to the marriage register thing?" She asked.
"No! We will only make it public when we want people to know outside of our small circle of people we trust." He kissed her lips and rested his forehead against hers.
"Ready Mrs Krum?" He asked, and she kissed his lips, shaking her head.
"No, but with you... yes!" She said, as he took hold of her hand and they stepped out into the spacious living room/kitchen.
