Harry huffed. "I'm fine—just tired and bored. I really want to go to a meeting. I need some entertainment right now."

Severus sighed. "I can ask the Dark Lord if he'll allow you to attend a meeting. Rabastan and Rodolphus miss you."

"Really, Sev? Thank you," Harry said, reaching for him and giving him a kiss.

Severus returned the kiss. "Love you, Harry. I'll be back soon." He went to make the request.

Harry huffed, using the couch for support as he stood up and made his way to the bathroom.

When Severus returned, he saw that Harry was missing. He glanced around before spotting Harry emerging from the bathroom.

"So?" Harry asked, looking at Severus.

Severus replied, "We can go, but we have to attend as his second and third. It's the Dark Lord's monthly meeting."

Harry grinned and summoned his clothes, quickly getting dressed. Severus rolled his eyes but began preparing as well. He then Apparated them to Malfoy Manor, where the meetings were held.

Upon arriving, they walked into the room. "My Lord," Severus and Harry greeted.

Tom Riddle looked up. "Do sit. The meeting will start soon."

Harry surveyed the room, noting both new and familiar faces. A shiver of magic touched his senses, drawing his attention to Tom.

Severus frowned and whispered, "Is that Tom?"

Harry shook his head. "No."

"Who, then?" Severus asked.

Harry frowned. "May I do a sweep?" he whispered.

Severus nodded. "The healer said it's safe for you to use magic again."

Harry let his magic flow, sweeping over everyone in the room. His senses stopped at a new member, who radiated ill intentions. Harry squeezed Severus's hand. "It's him," he said, nodding toward the newcomer.

Severus looked at the new member with a frown.

Harry addressed Tom. "My Lord, who are the new people here tonight?"

Tom's frown deepened. "New members who have requested to join."

Harry shifted into his second-in-command persona. "My Lord, I believe there is a traitor among us."

Tom's gaze sharpened. "Who?"

Harry pointed discreetly. "Him, one of the new recruits."

Tom's eyes narrowed as he focused on the new member. "Who are you?"

Severus stood up. "My Lord, let me handle this." He approached the newcomer. "So, you claim loyalty to the Dark Lord? A seasoned spy can always spot a rat." Severus cast a spell, revealing the man to be a member of the Light.

Tom growled. "Lucius, deal with him."

Lucius rose and joined Severus to handle the traitor, escorting him to the dungeons.

Harry watched them leave, then frowned, rubbing his stomach discreetly.

When the meeting concluded, Severus and Harry departed, heading home.
