The bathroom off of Hermione's room was huge. She walked in and her mouth dropped open. The shower was against one wall, but it was an open shower with shelves against the wall that looked like huge leaves. Every shampoo, body wash, and hair product Hermione could dream of was sitting on those shelves. The bathtub in the middle of the floor was a huge Turkish bath, the taps were hanging off the wall and each handle held a different form of colored water or perfumed bubbles. Hermione had a tough choice ahead of her to chose where she would get ready for bed tonight. She walked over to the bath and turned the taps. She had chosen the milk bath with strawberry and peach bubbles.
Undressing herself Hermione sunk into the bath. She waved her hand, and a secret compartment came up from the floor by the tub. Looking it over she chose her selection of shampoos and conditioners. Having curly hair was sometimes a blessing, but most of the time it just took a ton of maintenance to keep it healthy and shiny. She grabbed the coconut shampoo and conditioner, a clarifying shampoo, and a leave in conditioner. She also grabbed the wide toothed comb that was sitting there. Her hair was nasty and got knotted up easily. She needed to take her time and slowly comb through her hair. The conditioner was helpful in getting all her knots out. Once she'd washed her hair thoroughly, she finished up her bath and noticed the towels and her pajamas laying on the bench against the opposite wall.
Climbing out of her bath, she walked over and dried herself off. She again waved her hand and the things she used for her bath put themselves back into their place on the hidden shelves and the shelf sank back down into the floor. She'd have to ask Thorfinn later, about that nifty little piece of magic. She got herself dressed and then went over to the sink, Again she had to comb out her hair and put some more product in it. Curly hair was a right pain in the butt to deal with. She was so used to doing her hair the muggle way, she didn't realize that a few simple spells could get her hair straightened out in one wave. She brushed her teeth and once she was done walked out of the bathroom to her huge bed.
Hermione was tired but she had to make sure she wouldn't wake any of her men up. She was so tired that instead of silencing the room like she meant too, she accidentally amplified it. Falling into her bed she didn't realize what she'd done, she just fell asleep. The elves had left Hermione a dreamless sleep that she'd not noticed. She was finally able to sleep peacefully for a bit with no one breaking into her house. She would make Molly and everyone who was against her pay. She just didn't know how yet.
"Sirius, NO! Don't go, don't leave me. I love you. I'm nothing without you. Please don't leave me. I couldn't stand it if you did." Hermione was standing in front of the death veil again next to Sirius. Bellatrix was as always pointing her wand at both of them. She was pregnant this time.
"Don't go Sirius, don't leave me…." Bella was mocking Hermione. "Are you fucking the mudblood Sirius? You can't be serious. She's just a child. She's nothing but scum on the bottom of our shoes. Let me just take care of this little problem and then we can go on without her. Your mother would be so ashamed of you trying to bring a mudblood into the family." Bella leveled her wand at Hermione. "One simple little spell will take care of everything Sirius. Let me do it."
"No Bella, no I won't. Hermione is the love of my life. I'll kill you before you touch her." Sirius fired off a spell at Bellatrix.
Blocking Sirius's spell, Bellatrix fired one back and its mark landed true on Sirius's chest shoving him back through the veil. "I killed Sirus Black! You're next little girl. You think I'll let you sully the family name with your half bred spawn of Satan?! You'll die too you mudblooded whore." She then turned her wand on Hermione.
Hermione started screaming at Bellatrix.
Hermione was thrashing around her bed and screaming. She was so upset over her dream that she didn't hear the door to her room bang open. "SIRIUS NO! You can't leave me again. You can't die again. I won't let that psycho bitch take you from me again."
The bed sunk down under the weight of two of Hermione's men. Thorfinn and Dolohov had barged into her room after hearing her screams. "Do you think we need to go get Sirius for her?" Antonin was a little out of his depths here. He didn't know what to do about his princess having a nightmare. He was the one that normally caused the nightmares.
"I don't know. Let's see if we can wake her up and calm her down first. If we can't then maybe we need to go get someone who can." Thorfinn climbed into the bed on one side of Hermione and pulled her against his chest.
Antonin nodded his head and climbed into the bed on the other side of Hermione and wrapped his huge arm around her waist pulling himself closer to her and Thorfinn. He could wait until she was awake to find out what was going on with her.
Hermione slowly stopped squirming and settled down to sleep between the guys. She could tell that something was different but at this point she didn't care, she was just glad she'd stopped screaming and thrashing around the bed. She snuggled down into Thorfinn's and Antonin's arms. For now she could sleep peacefully and when she woke in the morning she would find out why she was sleeping so peacefully.
Before they fell back asleep themselves Thorfinn and Antonin shared a look over Hermione's head. They would address the nightmares with the others later, but for now they each gave her a kiss on the forehead and fell asleep beside their witch.
Hermione slept fantastic for the rest of the night and in the morning she found that she was squished between what felt like two space heaters. Blinking her eyes open she looked around her bed. Once she spotted Antonin in front of her and Thorfinn behind her, she relaxed a little but she did reach out to wake them, She needed to know what they were doing in her room.
"Thorfinn, Antonin!" She squirmed around until she kicked Antonin out of the bed to floor and turned and did the same to Thorfinn. She then sat up and again after she heard them thump on the floor. "ANTONIN! THORFINN!"
That got their attention and they woke up immediately and sat up. They looked around them and wondered what they were doing in the floor.
"Printsessa, why are we in the floor? What happened last night? All we know is we heard you screaming and something about Sirius leaving you? Do you need one of us to go and get him for you Moya Dusha?" Antonin got up from the floor and stood the side of Hermione's bed.
"I'm so sorry. I think I had a nightmare last night. I thought I had silenced the room, but I was so tired I just fell into bed. I probably kicked you both out of the bed on accident this morning and I woke up. I'm so sorry. I had no intention of you ever having to come to my room because of a nightmare. Yes, if one of you could please go and get Sirius for me. Every since that night in the department of mysteries sometimes my nightmares get the best of me." Hermione patted the bed beside her.
Thorfinn nodded and ran out of the room to go find Sirius for Hermione. He didn't want to be gone long, but it would be long enough for Antonin to try and sweet talk Hermione. "Of course sweet girl. I'll bring Sirius back with me and then we can get take care of the business in the town that we need too."
"Antonin, what's he talking about business in town?" Hermione looked over at her Russian wizard who was laying next to her.
"You did say you need to go back to the bank to check on your lineage and a few other errands. We also need to figure out what to do with those who have crossed you. Yesterday you asked about my list. In short my list is a place you don't want to be. It's for my enemies and bad things happen to those find themselves on it. I think the last person that was on it, was slowly tortured to insanity and then they were eviscerated. I'm sure I still have a body part or two of them somewhere we can feed to potter or the rest of the Weasley's. If not well then We can find someone and I'll make a few more body parts to feed to them if need be. You should know by now that we'd do anything for you Malyshka." Antonin was a silver-tongued bastard when he spoke Russian endearments to Hermione.
If Hermione wasn't careful, she could definitely fall for not just Antonin but all of her men hard and fast. "You sly devil you. You certainly know what you're doing don't you?" Hermione leaned over and gave Antonin his first kiss from her. "Keep it up and you may just spend the night in my bed or me in yours."
Antonin welcomed the kiss and wrapped his arms around. "Maybe that's exactly what I want Printsessa. You're going to spoiled twenty times over if we have our way about things." Antonin leaned back in and kissed his way up Hermione's neck and across to her lips. Antonin put his hand up Hermione's night shirt and was playing with her breast. His hand was about to worm further down her stomach when the door opened back up.
"Started without us huh? You sly Russian bastard you." Thorfinn had found Sirius and brought him back to Hermione's room. "I leave for five minutes to go and find the wizard she was screaming for last night and we come back to this? Can we join or is this just a party for two?"
Hermione pulled back from Antonin, whose hand slid out from under her shirt. "Yes come on in then." Lowly to Antonin where Thorfinn couldn't hear, Hermione muttered, "We'll continue this later on tonight yes. Hopefully then we won't have any interruptions." Hermione trailed her finger down Antonin's chest.
Antonin shot a dirty look towards Thorfinn. "Yes I suppose come in if you must. Next time I'll make sure to ward the room."
"Baby, Thorfinn said you were screaming in your sleep for me last night? He said they came in and tried to wake you up, but you wouldn't wake up and they couldn't get you to wake up or calm down until they climbed into bed with you? What was your dream about babygirl? We can't fix it, if we don't know what happened." Sirius came over to the side of the bed.
Hermione shot up and ran over to Sirius. She was crying, she didn't like thinking about her dream. "I was pregnant and we where back in the room with the veil at the ministry. Bellatrix was with us and she was pointing her wand at us. I was saying something about how I didn't want you to leave me. She was laughing and blocked every spell we shot at her. Somehow one of spells got through and sent you falling back through the veil again. She laughed and laughed and said how your mother would be disgusted that you had impregnated a mudblood and she was going to kill me next. That's when I woke up." Hermione clung tighter to Sirius's chest. "I don't want you to leave me again. I can't stand it if you do. I can't stand it if any of you leave me."
"Moya dragotsennaya kukolka, the dark lord himself couldn't take me away from you. I will be by your side until death and even then I'll find my way back from the veil to be with you. Bella has officially been placed on my list. She will meet her nasty end one day soon. I promise you I won't be going anywhere and I'm sure I'm right in thinking that the rest of the men won't be going any where's either. Now let's get you up and dressed and then we can go to the bank with you to get your inheritance test done."
Hermione stopped sniffling and rose from the bed. "You're right Antonin I do need to get to the bank today to sort all this heritage crap out. I honestly can't believe I'm not muggleborn. That means my parents lied to me for 16 years. There were baby pictures of me in my house!" Hermione walked over to her closet. She threw outfit after outfit out onto her bed. She was looking for something that stated she meant business.
"Sweet girl, I suggest you wear this with some black knee high boots and a dark tank top." Thorfinn held up a pair of Hermione's black leather skinny jeans and her leather jacket. "If you put this on and sit at you vanity chair I will do you hair for you. Once done no one will even want to mess with you. Go get dressed and your jewelry will be laying out on your vanity when you get out of the bathroom."
Hermione grabbed her clothes and went into the bathroom to get dressed and brush her teeth. Once she finished she came out and sat at her vanity. Looking at the desk top she found a simple silver chain necklace laying out next to a pair of silver hoop earrings. Once she finished putting them on, Thorfinn came up behind her and started to comb out the mess of her hair. He eventually got it flat enough where he could braid it into one long braid down her back. She got up from the chair put her wand up her sleeve, put her jacket on and gave Thorfinn a hug.
"Thank you. Now lets go take care of business at the bank. Part of me is anxious to see who I'm related to and part of me is not. I do want to know though. Hopefully my parents are still alive." Hermione was hoping her real parents are still alive so she could have other people who cared about her on her side.
Hermione and the men in her room with her went down to the breakfast table. The men were supposed to tell her their side of what happened she activated the spell to bring them to her, but she found that, that story could wait for later. They would have a meeting when she got back from the bank anyways to see what to do about the intruders in Grimmauld place. She found she didn't care about them as much as she used too.
"It's time I went to the bank to find out my lineage. You all are welcome to come with me or stay here or go about and do your own business if there's something you need to do in Diagon alley." Hermione looked around the room at her men. She was secretly hoping that a few if not all of them would come with her to the bank. She kind of wanted to see the looks on peoples faces when they realize several have come back from the dead. Those in Grimmauld wouldn't know what hit them when it came time to visit them.
All twenty of Hermione's men decided that they wanted to come with her. A few of them needed to go and see about getting access to their vaults back anyways. The group left through the fireplace in the dining room and they were off to Gringotts bank.
Stepping out of the fireplace and into the bank was an experience. People and goblins alike were starring at Hermione and then the men behind her just kept coming out of the fireplace. Needless to say people where quiet shocked at the display that was happening before their very eyes.
"I would like to speak to Gnarlack please. Its very important." Hermione would take shit from no one today. She was going to find out which family she belonged too and then she would get access to those vaults. It was only common when this happened that the heir would get the key to their vaults when they came of age. Apparently someone had forgot to mention to Hermione that she wasn't a muggle born.
