CHAPTER 8

Severus stood in his very own shop and stared at all the potions bottles that were lining up on shelves. He was extremely happy for having been able to achieve something like this.

He never thought he would be happy to have something like this. But now that he has it, he feels like be always wanted something like this. He would never have achieved something like this if not for Harry and his two co-omegas.

"Mama." A loud cry rang out in the shop, startling Severus out of his happy state.

He turned to look where the crying was coming from and saw Draco crying with his hand clutched to his chest as he sat on the ground.

"Draco what happened?" Harry panicked bending down and Draco kicked him, backing up. Harry frowned as he looked at the crying child, worry clenching at his heart. Severus did not go closer, wanting to see what he would do.

Harry did not interact with Draco. Severus wished that Harry would hold Draco as his own because he knows one day Draco would ask for his father and he will find out that it is not normal to only have a mother. Draco is a smart child.

"Its okay. Tell me what hurts. I will fix it. And then we can go to mama. Come on dragon." Harry softly whispered with a small smile and Draco tilted his head.

"I am not a dragon." Draco huffed and crossed his hands over his chest and looked away.

"Then what are you?" Harry asked with his eyebrows furrowed.

"I am a constellation." Draco said with a big smile on his face.

The two year olds speech was a lot better then most. It indicates just how much love was there for him to be such a powerful child. It is a known fact that the child born from a strong love would be strong and a child from hurt will not live long nor will it have power. And Draco was powerful, even though he is an omega.

"Okay then my star, show me your wrist and I will fix it." Harry said and Draco outstretched the hand he had been cradling to his chest. Harry cast a healing spell and then gave his wrist a small kiss.

"Let's go Draco." Harry said as he stood up and Draco grabbed ahold of his pinky and Harry smiled at that and started to walk towards the back of the shop where Lucius and Tom were.

He knew Severus was there, but he did not acknowledge him. He did not want to fall victim to any form of teasing. Severus smiled as he walked towards the pay area and waited for a customer to enter. He knew he would not flourish very fast because of him being omega. It was frowned upon for an omega to run a business.

Lucius and Tom walked out of the back room when they heard a shriek and were immediately met with the sight of Draco cradled in Harry's arms as the alpha tickled him.

"You naughty boy." Harry said as Draco giggled and shrieked.

"What happened?" Lucius asked as he stepped closer to the pair.

"Where did he learn how to do spells?" Harry asked as he stopped the tickle torture on the blonde.

"I thought him some." Tom said sheepishly as he looked at Harry.

Draco had splashed the alpha with a watering spell. He had already dried himself.

"Well let's go and give Severus some company." Lucius said as he walked to where Severus was.

They waited for an hour, until finally the bell climbed and in walked the Longbottoms. Draco perked up at seeing someone his own age. Neville Longbottom stumbled a little but them collected himself quickly.

"Hello there. How can we help you?" Severus asked as he stepped forward, fidgeting a little bit and as the alpha and beta pair turned to look at him he forced up a smile.
