Mrs. J.K., You know the drill, everything is yours, nothing is mine.

I watched the looks and interaction between them and sighed, I will have to talk to Greengrass and Davis, they are driving it too far… probably Lovegood and Granger too.

14 Courting?

I got Serious, "About those naps, postpone them, I need Heiress Primary Greengrass, Heiress Secondary Davis, Heiress Primary Lovegood, and Miss Granger in my office after Breakfast. The presence of Heir Primary Potter and Black is needed too, along with Dowager Malfoy and Director Bones as witnesses."

I looked at the Muggle girls, "After that meeting, I want to have a conversation with the four of you if you don't mind."

All four swallowed and nodded silently. Astoria cheered inside, she was off the hook! Breakfast was done in silence after my announcements. Harry dreaded the "I want to know what you did last night?" Daphne, Tracey, and Hermione dreaded the "How far did you let Harry go?" Luna was wondering if she could take Fifi for a walk again.

Two sluts, four sluts in training, and one Heir gathered in my office, I sighed, "Penny and Tapsy informed me that you crossed some borders last night. Borders that should not be crossed for a few more years. Part of the fault is with me, I could and should have stopped you, but I didn't."

I explained myself, "I remembered my Summer when I was thirteen and the years Harry lost due to Dumbledore and reckoned he deserved some happiness. I don't know what triggered last night but it went too far. I did warn you, Harry, and you said you would talk to them."

I turned to Amelia, "Director Bones, can you do the spells to identify the bonds between Heiress Primary Greengrass, Heiress Secondary Davis, Heiress Primary Lovegood, and Miss Granger with Heir Potter/Black, please."

Amelia got serious, "I see, I will do as you ask, Lord Black."

Amelia cast her spells to make the bonds visible, Hermione had two strong strings, Daphne a strong one and a fading one, so did Tracey. Luna cheered when she saw her string bright and strong.

I shook my head, "The border you crossed yesterday was to allow… no, to force your Magic to solidify your bonds. You wanted to be one of his wives and you encouraged your Magic to connect you with Harry."

I looked at Harry, "This goes for you too, Harry. You were eager to have them, to call them yours. Part is my fault for not explaining it enough, but you allowed your Magic to bind yourself with four girls. Dowager Malfoy, can you explain the next procedure now the bonds are confirmed?"

Cissy turned to the Heiresses, "You should know already; Lord Black is starting courtship negotiations with your parents. If there are pending Marriage contracts, he will have to pay the fines for breaking the contract. Dowry and Bride price have to be negotiated and a Date of your marriage has to be agreed upon."

She looked at Hermione, "Lord Black has to let your parents know you bonded with Heir Potter, and you are his wife in all but his name. Beware, Miss Granger, breaking this bond will have penalties, like a reduced Magic Core, so is fighting the bond when it is formed."

Cissy tried to lighten the mood, "All that is left is who gets what? Who will be Lady Potter and who Lady Black?"

I shook my head, "What I want to know is, what triggered it? I thought I silenced my room and locked the door."

Luna was happy to answer, "There was a one-way window in the room next to yours, there was a listening spell on it too. We learned that spell and used it on your office door too."

I groaned, "My current bedroom was the old nursery, and that room is the Master bedroom of the house. I guess that window was to keep an eye on the babies. Who discovered it?"

Luna giggled, "I did, I was playing the naughty concubine from House Black in that room when you went into your room with your slut. I learned a lot. I doubt I can learn more in Knockturn Alley."

Cissy blushed, Amy chuckled, and I groaned some more, stupid me was riling my sluts up with something that was actually happening! Hmm, did they know? That put yesterday's change in behavior in a new light. After I found out Luna was watching us, I kept the door closed.

I sighed, "I will invite your parents for dinner tonight and discuss the situation. No doubt they know what it is about. Why else would they allow you to stay in this house?"

Daphne gathered her courage, "We talked it over with Harry, Lord Black, this bonding was a mutual decision, we all felt it, our Magic is compatible and drew us in. We would not be here if it wasn't."

Tracey added, "We chose it ourselves, Lord Black."

"Well, you chose your path in life, you have to walk on it from now on. Go outside and call the other girls in," I said to Harry, "go stand behind them, so Director Bones… No, so that Amy can cast that spell without the girls noticing it."

When Ariana, Tina, Taylor, and Cristina entered my office, I distracted them, I gave each a small box, "This is your last day with Harry and the gang. Tomorrow they leave for Scotland. You were good friends for Harry, he had a bad youth and you made him get over it. This is a small token of my gratitude, these are good luck pendants, they told me it wards people with bad intentions away."

Behind the girls, Amy nodded at me. I sighed, "You mean a lot to Harry, so whenever you need a listening ear, a talk, or shelter, my door is open for each of you. I keyed you into my security system, just one knock on the door will open it for you."

Cissy commented, "I will spend most of my time here, so it will be properly chaperoned."

The girls opened their present, a beautiful locket with an Emerald on came out of the box, they gasped. I said, "I am quite wealthy and so is Harry, this is a small token of our friendship. The old monk that sold me this said to bind it with the owner with a drop of blood, but I reckon it will also work with a bit of spit, both have your DNA in it."

A Wizard Notice me not, a bad intent ward, a portkey to this house when they are in mortal danger, or her health is getting critical. If those purebloods find out about them then they are in danger. I can not rule out that they will never find out about them.

This will keep them safe. There might be a small compulsion charm on it to keep it on as much as possible. Swimming and sports activities require them to take them off. That is the most I can do to keep them safe.

Harry and the girls left my office, I looked at my sluts, "When did you find out they were watching us?"

Amy blushed, "Tina and Ariana told us, the others confirmed it and wanted to learn more. So we showed them last night. They already saw plenty, so one more night would not make any difference."

Cissy shrugged, "They are off the market now, so there are no potions or curses to worry about. Harry can take his Lordship up at fifteen. Then they can even demand private quarters after their OWLS as they are from different houses."

Cissy sighed, "I better go home, Draco will return today and I have to be there for him."

Amy nodded, "Susan will return home too, I will have to talk to her about Neville and Hannah. I will see you at the train tomorrow?"

I nodded, "Tomorrow at ten, yes. I will bring Hermione along, her parents are working."

Taylor, Tina, Ariana, and Cristina sat down in Tina's room, looking at the necklaces.

Tina sighed, "So, magic is real, huh..."

Taylor nodded, "Totally didn't expect that."

Ariana wondered, "I wonder if there's a way to figure out where that school of theirs is..."

Cristina shook her head, "Probably not worth the risk with their insane level of secrecy."

Taylor giggled and then added, "That secrecy and most of them still stand out like clowns at a funeral!"

Tina chuckled, "Harry's birthday party was an eye-opener, alright… wait… Do you think that was real gold in that vault? That should be worth millions! The gold, jewelry, and Gems. That amount is insane to store in your basement!"

Ariana suddenly asked, "Hey! Do you remember Harry asking permission to Fifi for that slumber party? What if Fifi is not a dog but… Did any of you see Lord Black together with Fifi?"

Taylor shook her head, "No, I also remember that Harry asked Fifi on the first day that it was time to go home and Fifi shook his head."

Cristina studied her necklace. "I wonder if what he said was true. He put a bit of spit on it, he said, to record our DNA… Done. If it doesn't work, it was just a bit of spit. The emerald is real, too, I suppose."

Tina asked, "Should we trust him? He is a horny one. What if he wants to lure us in?"

Taylor shook her head, "That would get him in trouble with Harry, and we found out how much he cares about him. Who else spends that kind of money on his Godson? And with that kind of fortune, they will stand in line to get in his bed. There, I spit on it."

Cristina looked thoughtful, "He is not living alone in that house, we never saw someone cook or clean, yet the place was clean and there was plenty of food. Harry said the elves would bring food and drinks to his slumber party on his birthday, what if they were real?"

"There is one way to find out about it," said Ariana, and called out loud, "Can I speak with Harry's Elf please?"

Dobby popped in, "What can Dobby do for Mistress Aria?"

After the first shock, Ariana asked, confused, "I am a Mistress? How?"

Dobby answered, "Magic chose Mistresses for Master Harry Potter Sir. Magic is never wrong."

Tina held her hand up, "Dobby? You said Mistresses, who are they?"

Dobby counted on his fingers, "There be Mistress Aria, there be Mistress Tina, there be Mistress Crissy, there be Mistress Tayly, there be Mistress Daffy, there be Mistress Tracy, There be Mistress Luny, and there be Mistress Hermi. Mistress Tory be waiting til next year Dobby thinks."

Tina pressed on, "How did we get selected, Dobby? We don't have Magic powers."

Dobby explained eagerly, "Mistresses spend lots of time with Master Harry and be caring for Master Harry. Master Harry cares lots for Mistresses and Magic made bond happen."

Dobby looked around, "Mistress Tina, room be needing cleaning, can Dobby clean?"

Taylor answered it fast, "Do it Dobby! Show us how you clean."

Dobby snapped his fingers. All the clothes lying around were cleaned, folded, and floated into Tina's wardrobe. One more snap, and the room was spotless.

Taylor cheered, "That was fantastic, Dobby! You can come and clean my room anytime you want. Say, was that you who cooked and cleaned for us?"

"Dobby helped, there be Kreacher, there be Penny, there be Tapsy, there be Hakky and Stabby, there be Minny, there be Mipsy, and there be Mandy." summed Dobby up, counting on his fingers.

Cristina asked, "Nine elves for cleaning a house with a few snaps of your fingers? Aren't you bored?"

Dobby shrugged, "There be Master Harry's Mansion, there be the apartment in Hogsmeade, there be the Island of Master Black, there be a vineyard in France, and there be a Castle in Spain. There be the Mistresses to care for. Dobby got plenty of work."

"Well," said Cristina, "I must say you elves did a wonderful job. We are impressed. This room is spotless. You can clean my room whenever you feel like it. We are looking forward to your care, Dobby. You are a nice Elf."

Dobby hugged Cristina's legs, "Mistress Crissy be thanking Dobby, Mistresses are the bestest!"

Dobby popped away.

Taylor giggled, "I know who is cleaning our rooms from now on."

Dinner with the future in-laws was awkward for the Grangers. The Greengrasses and Davis were pleased with the development, Xeno did not care, all he wants is his little girl's happiness. Hermione was blushing, Daphne and Tracey looked as if they won the lottery, Luna concentrated on her Pudding.

Harry had the Deer in the Headlight expression on his face, snogging girls is totally different than meeting the parents. Tracey's Brother Roger and Astoria watched the drama from the sidelines.

At the end of the dinner, Daphne's and Tracey's parents explained the finer details of Magic bonding. Veronica Greengrass said, "It has to come from two sides, both must be willing to commit to each other, the feelings must be real, you can't fake it. That Harry bonded with four Girls is exceptional, most girls don't want to share a husband and don't form a bond if more girls are involved."

Luna said between two spoons of Pudding, "Tina, Ariana, Taylor, and Cristina are bonded too."

Agatha Davis gasped, "Harry bonded with eight girls? Four of them Muggles? How is that possible?"

Luna swallowed her Pudding, "Next year Astoria too, I think."

"AM NOT!" yelled Astoria, "Don't drag me into this, Lovegood!"

Luna shrugged, "You have to, how else can I be concubine Peverell?"

Xeno brightened up, "Are you sure Harry is the Master, Moonbeam?"

Luna nodded, "Fifi has to give the Ring and Harry will be my Lord Peverell."

"Fifi?" Asked Veronica Greengrass.

I hurried to say, "Yeah, the damn dog took off with the ring, I'll summon it later. He probably hid it from nosy reporters."

Luna frowned at me, "Reporters need to be nosy, Uncle Siri, it is in their job description."

Cyrus tried to get everyone back to the order of business, "Let us concentrate on our daughters, can I assume that Miss Hermione is destined to become Lady Potter and Tracey Lady Black? My girl will be Consort Black and Luna… why do you want to be a concubine, Luna?"

Harry slapped his hands on Luna's mouth, and said, "She reads too many dirty books. She will be happy to be a Consort."

I interrupted the comedy show, "I have the means to make Harry Lord Peverell, but he needs a wife for that," I pointed to the girls, "They are in harmony now, what if there comes an outsider joining the family?"

Luna protested, "Astoria is not an outsihmbmlbmmbl!"

Astoria whispered, "I said don't drag me into this, Lovegood or I spill your secrets."

Luna whispered back, "You will next year, Tori."

Cyrus took some papers out of his robe, "I brought some samples of a courting contract to discuss the options, like fidelity and what liberties are or are not allowed; and the penalties of a breach of contract appears."

Veronica clarified it for the Grangers, "Most of the time it is when the couple have intercourse, that changes the courting into a betrothal contract."

Agatha Davis giggled, "It gives the parents something to discuss about. Once the Magic Bond is made, there is no turning back without damaging their core. The rest are details."

I forced the kids to stay and take part in the negotiations, "Someday you will do this for your own children, watch and learn! Make comments if you agree or disagree."

That started a discussion Harry could not win, "That is not fair! We need to approve of other concubines! We should decide on our future job! I will not have five children! Three at most! Don't you dare to pass your concubines around, Harry! I don't have any, Hermione! No Luna, you be a Consort! No Luna! Not even next year! Luna, every day? All of you? What am I? Superman?"

At the end, the kids were discussing the contracts scrapping lines, and adding some. When they were satisfied, I said to the parents, "I will let my lawyer read a copy to make sure everything is legal, you can do the same, and if we are fine with it, we sign it next weekend. Can everyone agree to that?"

Everyone went home, I sat down with Harry, "Congratulations, Harry, you topped me and your father with a landslide. What are your thoughts?"

Harry sighed, "This was the most crazy and the best Summer of my life, Siri. Running to Tina, Ariana, Taylor, and Cristina as Fifi was the best idea you ever had for me. I care for them, Siri. I told Dobby to keep an eye on them."

"As for Hermione, Luna, Daphne, and Tracey, it just happened," he looked at me, "What are you going to do? Hook up with Narcissa and Amelia?"

I shook my head, "Not completely. I have some unfinished business to take care of, something I have to do to be able to move on with my life."

I said to Harry, "We have some unfinished business, too. Get your Cloak and the wand you got from Dumbledore.

Harry stood up, "Can it wait, Ciri? I am dead tired. Thanks, I am off to bed. Good night, Siri. I will never forget this Summer."

Well, it was a good Summer after all. One more day and it is time to get even.

We met at the train at ten o'clock. Harry claimed a compartment with Hermione, Daphne, Tracey, and Luna. I bet Astoria was ordered to keep an eye on her sister, to keep it proper. Neville burst out of his cocoon and became a confident young boy. No doubt Hannah and Susan helped with that; they claimed a compartment, too.

Dear Draco and Theodore were still mourning their father's demise and claimed a comportment of their own. Mrs. Nott was dressed in bright colors and had a forced smile on her face while talking to Cissy. She was clearly mourning her husband… Grief shows itself in many ways. It is true! Cissy is dressed in bright colors, too.

I walked over to them and kissed both their hands, "Again, I am sorry for your loss, Dowager Nott, if there is anything I can do for you, just ask."

Dowager Nott looked at Cissy, who nodded encouragingly at her, "As a matter of fact, there is something you can do, Lord Black. I am in a custody fight over Theo with my late husband's younger brother. I fear when he gets Guardianship of Theo, he will claim Regency over House Nott. Knowing him, Theo and I will be just one accident away for him the be the next Lord Nott."

Cissy informed me, "Siri, House Nott used to be Vassals of House Black. They changed Vassalage to House Malfoy. You can claim both custody and Regency of House Nott. You are Lord Black and Regent Malfoy that gives you first claim."

Softly she added, "Eleanor is prepared to do everything to make it worthwhile to you, Siri. The hearing starts in an hour. Can you help her? I will do whatever you want."

I studied Eleanor's face and asked, "If I do this, Theodore has to sign the same contract as Draco, do you agree?"

Eleanor nodded, "Cissy explained the contract to me, Lord Black, Theo will sign it. You have my word."

I grinned, "Why don't we ask the opinions of Director Bones, Lord Greengrass, Lord Davis, and Lord Lovegood? I am sure they will agree that I have the first claim.

We entered the Conference room of the child Services twenty minutes before the hearing was about to start. We saw Oscar Nott was about to sign a paper. With a wave of my wand, the paper flew to me.

"I hope this is not the custody granted to Mr. Nott. The Hearing hasn't even started yet." I said to the Ministry official, "Let's see… ah, yes, it is. Now, can you explain why Nott here was about to sign off on a decision of the hearing when the hearing hasn't even started yet? Madam Bones? Is this the policy of the Ministry?"

Amelia glared at the five Ministry grunts, "Your explanation will determine whether this will merely get you a slap on the wrist, cause you to lose your job, or get you a few years in Azkaban for aiding in an attempted Line theft."

The Head Grunt swallowed, "Director Bones, Lord Nott…"

Amelia interrupted, "It is Mr. Nott. Call him Lord Nott again, and it is conspiring to do a Line Theft. Try again."

The other four grunts shifted away from the Head Grunt, indicating it was his idea. The Head Grunt tried again, "Mr. Nott had solid arguments favoring him above Dowager Nott's, also Lord Parkinson vouched for him."

Amelia stood before the Head Grunt, "Show me Dowager Nott's arguments."

The Head Grunt got embarrassed, "Mr. Nott told me her arguments, Director."

Amelia nodded, "That is your job you just lost. Now, let us define how many years you will spend in Azkaban. Explain why you wanted to give grand custody to Mr. Nott before the Hearing started? Think before answering, Andrews, your Uncle can't help you with this because he would go down with you."

I asked the four Grunts, "How much Galleons did you get to agree?"

One of them flapped out, "Five hundred. We did not see any harm in it. He is an Uncle of the boy and Dowager Nott is from a lesser Line than Mr. Nott. We thought the hearing was not necessary and a waste of time."

Amelia stared at the Head Grunt, "That is corruption, now are you going to make it a Line theft attempt?"

Oscar Nott got his wits back together, "This is a custody hearing for Theo in Merlin's name! Why are you making it into a Line theft case?"

Amelia turned to him, "Because the committee to grant the Regency over House Nott is scheduled in twenty minutes, this hearing has to start at the same time, and Lord Parkinson is head of that committee."

I said to the man, "Oscar, can you swear on your life and Magic that you want to raise Theodore to be the next Lord of House Nott, and that you have the best interest of him and his Mother at heart?"

Oscar stayed silent, I shook my head, "I as Lord Black and Regent Malfoy, claim the legal and Magical guardianship of Theodore Nott with the approval of Dowager Nott. House Nott used to be House Black's Vassals and are now House Malfoy's Vassals, that is a triple claim. Oscar Nott, withdraw your claim for Regency over House Nott or face a Line theft investigation."

Cyrus spoke up, "I support that claim, Oscar, you are sailing dangerous waters. Line theft is a serious matter and the punishments are severe."

Oscar turned and walked out.

We entered the sitting of the committee just in time. Lord Parkinson frowned, Oscar was not here and I arrived with Amy in her function as Director of the DMLE and three Lords.

He said, "What is the meaning of this? This is a closed session to appoint a Regent for House Nott, neither of you were invited."

Amelia answered, "Then you are in violation of the law, Lord Parkinson, every member of the Wizengamot has the right to sit in this committee, and had to receive an invitation for it. The second law you violated is to exclude Regent Malfoy. House Nott are their Vassals and had to be included."

She turned to the committee members, "We just came from Child Services where I arrested Andrews for corruption. Oscar Nott bribed the Andrews to get the guardianship over Heir Primary Nott, he also failed to swear an oath to have Heir Nott's best interest at heart."

I stepped forward, "I as Regent Malfoy, claim Regency over House Nott, until Heir Primary Theodore Nott is of age and fit to take his Duty as Lord of his House. I am willing to take an oath to swear I have his best interest in mind."

Then I turned to the committee, "I find it highly suspicious to see only Imperiused Lords in this committee. I will demand the same oath from you before you get the Authority to grant any Regency. The Oath or there is the door. I will bring this before the Wizengamot, Lord Parkinson."

Almost all of them saw the battle was lost and left.

I said to Amelia, "I can not understand why the ministry does not use Vows and Oaths. A simple Vow to be impartial for the duration of the sitting should do the trick, isn't it? Ah, Dumbledore again?"

Amalia blushed when she nodded, "Dumbledore again."

Donald Parkinson woke up when I enervated him, stripped to only his underwear, tied up on a table. Current location? Unplottable, but Luna would recognize the torture room in my basement. Getting him here was ridiculously easy, I asked Dobby to bring him here. Dobby knows all the inner Circle Death Eaters and has been in their homes.

It took Dobby only to wait for him to leave the wards of his home to pop him before me, a stunner, and activating the wards on this room made his emergency escape measures void.

I smiled at the silenced and tied-up Lord, "Hello, Donny, how nice of you to drop in. I enjoyed watching your effort to be the top dog of the Dark Faction. It was a worthy try. Why did I bring you here you might ask?"

I patted his head, "You see, in Azkaban the inmates get bored sometimes and start bragging about their achievements, Travers for instance, used to brag to me what he did to Marlene McKinnon and her family. Ah, by the look on your face, you know why you are here with me. Yes, Travers named all of them. He knew Marlene and I Bonded and were about to marry. Huh? Did you just piss your briefs?"

I cleaned his mess and shook my head, "No, I am not a fan of torture, I am a fan of getting even, however. See that section of that wall? It looks like a giant Honeycomb without the honey, doesn't it? One of those is your final destination. Don't worry, your wife will be in good hands, she is currently waiting for me in my bed."

With wide eyes, Lord Parkinson was staring at me, I continued, "Yes, Marlene suffered before she died, turnabout is only fair, don't you think? Now, let me tell you a secret, did you know that you are aware when you are longer than a month on the potion of the Draught of the Living Death? That is why they call it the Living Death."

I chuckled, "Now you know what I have in store for you, but it doesn't end there, you know, Marlene's little sister was about the same age as your Pansy. Guess what will happen to her when she comes home for Yule? Nah, I am not into little girls, I will bind her Magic and sell her to some who are interested.

I grabbed his hair and pulled his head backward, "I have connections with the Japanese Yakuza. She will do good work in their whorehouses. Drink up, Donny, I have a Lady Parkinson to fuck. Don't look at me like that! I bet she hates you because you are a raping murdering scum. Goodbye, Donny."

I stored Donny and sealed the entrance to his last resting place. Then I closed that part of the torture chamber. The Fidelius spell is quite handy. After that, I went to my bedroom to fuck the slut.

Cissy was waiting for me with Eleanor Nott. She smiled when she cupped Eleanor's tits, "We thought this was a good way to thank you for saving Theo and Eleanor, Master. She is willing to be one of your sluts.

Slowly I removed my clothes, "A slut should know where to begin, so get started."

What? Did you really think I would have Lady Parkinson in my bed or would harm Pansy? I am not a Death Eater, you know.

AN: A thank you to Spica75 for his Omake. I just had to fit it in there.
