Gentle Beasts
It was a nice afternoon at the Malfoy manor, the Malfoys, Harry, Severus, and Fenrir gathered around the table for lunch. Spread a tad more then usual, because Harry was eating for two. The conversations were pleasant, and with their usual rowdiness.
Of course, that's when Harry decided to open his mouth.
"My water broke."
There was a pause, then Draco lifted the white elegant tablecloth, and ducked his head underneath.
"Yep," He confirmed, voice muffled, "it did."
Remus and Narcissa stood and hurried over to the Omega.
Lucius was up, "Draco, call for the mid-wife," he said as he summoned the maid, Draco was already out the door, "Have the room prepared." He then ordered when she arrived.
"It's already ready, my Lord." The maid said, following him out, "I'll also have one of my girls prepare the water, and I'll call for Violet, and have her attend to Master Harry until the mid-wife arrives."
"Careful Harry." Remus urged as he and Narcissa escorted Harry out the room.
The door closed with a soft thump, the dining room silent. Severus and Fenrir sat there in their seats.
"Sev." Fenrir said softly.
"Yeah."
"He-"
"Yeah."
More silence.
Suddenly the door opened, and Narcissa popped her head in "Boys, move your arse!" Then popped her head back out.
Fenrir stood with a soft yelp, and he was running out the room, only to skid to a stop once out in the hall, run back into the room; grabbed, and flung his mate over his shoulder, and ran back out.

Pomfrey arrived, looking calmer than everyone else in the room with exception of the Omega, and Violet the maid. By Harry's side were his mates, each holding his hand.
"My, my, we seem to have a full house." Pomfrey smiled as she started setting up, "How are feeling Harry?" she asked.
"Honestly, fine." Harry answered, smiling at Severus when he started to shift nervously, eyes flickering to the other's pregnant belly.
"That's good. Ah, Violet, thank you for attending to him in my absent."
"A pleasure, will you be needing me to stay and assist?"
"I believe that would be best, now everyone that's not the father must leave I'm afraid."
There was some protest, but a stern look from Pomfrey had the rest of the family shuffling out. And with that taken care of, all there was left to do was wait.
An hour later, Harry was doing his taught breathing, while his mates gently encouraged them.
"You're doing gre-"
"If you say great one more time, I'm tearing off your dick." Harry growled.
Fenrir wisely stopped talking.
"Can you do anything about the pain?" asked Severus.
Violet was already going through Pomfrey's bag, "Found it!" she hurried over, "Here," she then handed the potion over to Lord Severus, knowing how protective Alphas were, "have Master Harry drink this slowly, it'll help a little with the pain."
And when she said little, sadly, she meant little. As there have yet to be an potion invented to fully stop labor pain.
Outside in the hall, Lucius paced nervously, while Draco sat next to Remus, legging jittering. Narcissa was drinking calming tea while Remus fiddled with his clothes.
"Why is this taking so long?" Lucius mumbled, stopping, "it didn't with Draco."
"Every pregnancy is different, darling," Remus spoke up.
While understanding, it didn't stop Lucius from huffing.
About ten minutes later, the sound of cursing started coming from the other side of the door.
~.~.~.~
"I'll rip out the throat of anyone who looks at your wrong," Fenrir thought as he stared down at the sleeping newborn, "with my teeth."
In the bed, being tended to by Violet and Pomfrey, Harry rested.
"You did so well," Severus praised watching as his mate slowly began to doze off.
He would have been worried if Pomfrey didn't seem concerned, more focused on getting the Omega cleaned now that the baby had been taken care of, and was being watched over, by her father.
"The baby?" Harry mumbled for a third time, eyes struggling to stay open.
"She's fine, with Fenrir." Severus patiently explained as he done the first two times. "You can rest, everyone will be here, including our baby."
Harry finally closed his eyes, the Alpha watched as his breathing evened out.
"Severus, if you like, why don't you and Fenrir go show the others your daughter, I'm sure they're eagerly waiting." Pomfrey gently urged, "Violent and I will stay with Harry."
Kissing his mate on his forehead, he goes over to Fenrir, who nuzzled their noses together before both Alphas looked at their Pup. She was bigger than most newborns would be, as expected of a Werewolf pup. Her eyes had been a brilliant green like her Omega parent when they were open, and though it was hard to tell in the room's light, it seem her hair was a light black.
"I hope she doesn't develop my nose." said Severus.
"I like your nose." Fenrir kissed said nose, "As does Harry."
Severus gave a small smile, before looking at the door, "Come, let everyone else met our little Willow."
