I woke up the next morning late. I sat up lazily and stretched, my body sore from all the sex last night. "Glitz" the elf appeared, "I'm sore will you please draw me a bath and find me something comfortable to wear?" She popped into the bathroom and began dumping vials of liquids into the warm bath and the smell of lavender filled the air. She popped back in, "my mistress your bath is ready. May I wash your hair for you?" I smiled, "of course Glitz but really I would simply love your company." She giggled and clapped and then sat on a stool in the bathroom and I slid into the warm tub. The water and whatever was in it caressed and soothed my muscles. I was instantly relaxed. She rubbed a vanilla and honey mixture from a bottle into my hair and it smelled heavenly. She massaged my head after rinsing and I was in complete bliss. "Mistress would you like a facial while you relax." I nodded and she went to work cleansing and exfoliating my skin, she toned and masked my skin numerous times. Finally she added some vitamin serums and moisturized my face and I was glowing. "Thank you my sweet Glitz." She smiled as taking care of me was her joy.
She found me the largest towel and helped me out of the tub. She ushered me over to my dressing table in the bathroom and she began to brush my hair and dry it with magic. She added something to it and made my hair look very shiny without looking unclean. She hummed a song as she got me ready for the day to come. She painted my nails a matte black and rubbed lotion on my body that smelled like vanilla. Suddenly Tom burst into the room, "Sophie where are you?" I was confused, "I'm here my darling." I wasn't dressed yet, Glitz had turned my towel into a robe while she was pampering me. "You've been here this whole morning my wife?" I nodded, "mistress has only been up for two hours my lord. She took a long bath as she said she was sore and then I've been taking care of mistress." He looked at the elf. "Good. I was worried when you did not appear yet this morning." I smiled and stood up, I gave him a kiss on the cheek, "I just was utterly relaxed thanks to my sweet Glitz. The more I relax the better your son will grow inside me." He smiled at the comment and seemed satisfied with the answer. "Come see me when you are ready my dear I want your opinion on a few things." I nodded and finished getting ready.
(Minus the makeup because hello our girl just got her face done)
I walked downstairs to Tom's office, those who were around gave me a bow as I approached. "You wanted my help with something my dear husband?" "Yes, do you know the location of the Order?" Internally I winced, "yes however as Severus has been deemed a traitor I don't know if any of those places will still be in use." "Write then down for me and I'm sure they will be heavily guarded and fortified with enchantments." As I wrote he probed my brain, I masked my feelings and allowed him entrance as he would expect. As I wrote down places he found pictures of them in my mind. He pulled out very satisfied and I handed him my list. He kissed my head. "Is there anything else you need from my my lord?" I saw his jaw clenched in a way he only did when I turned him on. "Yes I would just like your presence." I nodded.
I sat on the sofa with a blanket as I read a book while he conducted meetings and strategized. Glitz brought me snacks as I sat by the fire in his office. I was very cold but even with my last pregnancy as short as it was I was very cold. I drank warm tea and munched on a biscuit when Tom came over and looked at me, "you're so very beautiful." I smiled. He stroked my face for a moment and placed a kiss on my forehead. He sat down beside me with brandy and stared into the fire. "Is something wrong Tom?" He didn't glance at me as first, "I'm trying to win a war. First it was to restore the wizarding world but now it's so much more. It's a kingdom for our son to inherit." I nodded as I rubbed my flat stomach absentmindedly. "What will you do about half bloods?" He looked at me, "give them a choice, they can be either muggle or they can be magical. There's no in between anymore." I nodded as I pondered on what he said. "Might I make a suggestion?" He nodded, "there is no way to eradicate muggleborns, what if perhaps instead of just killing them we take them and erase the parents' minds and the children for that matter and offer them to couples with no children or you know servants or something." He nodded, "I will consider your suggestion my wife." I smiled and bowed my head to him.
After spending the day together we elected for a quiet, personal dinner in his office. We didn't talk much but it was a comfortable silence, he sat his wine glass down and stared into the fire. "What's wrong?" He looked at me, "how would you feel if I brought your parents back for you?" I stared at him, "no." He raised a brow. "They would never support us. They would fling themselves at Harry's feet and then I'd kill then myself for choosing him over me." He nodded. "They chose him the night I came. Offered you up as a consolation prize. It enraged me." I nodded, tears threatening to fall, "they never wanted me but it's okay because I've had a great life. I've had people care for me, I'm married to the most powerful wizard in the world..." he smirked. "Thank you for expressing your feelings on the matter my dear." I nodded and finished my pasta. I stood up and walked over to where he ate and kissed him on the cheek, "I'm feeling tired, I'm going to retire for the evening." He nodded, "it's the baby growing." I nodded. I went to my room and felt utterly exhausted. Glitz helped me change into a pair of cotton pajamas and I quickly drifted off to sleep. Unable to keep my eyes opened any longer the last thing I did was cradle my flat stomach to protect my son in my sleep.
