Fifteen

It was the day before Yule, and Harry was sitting in the library alone as Lucius was with Tom and Severus in the office planning raids.

He heard a shuffle behind him and turned to see a nervous Draco behind him. "Dragon, what's wrong?" He asked, placing his book down.

Draco moved over to the couch and sat down. "I-I...I found my mate," Draco said and Harry frowned.

"That's good news, Dray," he said, sitting up. "But why do you look so upset about it?" he asked, and Dray sighed.

"Because he's going to be here for Yule tomorrow like he always is, and he doesn't know. I had blocked my scent, so he couldn't smell me, but I smelt him," Draco exclaimed, and Harry frowned.

"So I know him, then?" he asked, and Draco nodded. "Then what's the problem?" he asked, and Draco sighed.

"He and his father never really got along," the blonde said, and Harry now understood. "They argue a lot, and I don't want my father and my mate to hate each other." Draco whimpered, and Harry shuffled on the couch, moving closer to him.

"I understand," Harry said, "and here's what we will do,"

The family sat in the living room. Lucius and Harry, Severus and Tom, the LeStrange brothers, Greyback, Draco, and Karkaroff.

Harry looked over to see Draco looking at him, a nervous glint in his eyes. Nodding, he saw Draco release a breath before his glamor dropped.

He watched as Fenrir's head immediately snapped towards him, and the wolf's eyes turned golden.

He felt Lucius stiffen beside him and looked up at the blonde to see him watching the two intensely. Fenrir slowly stood and made his way across the room to Draco who was staring at his lap.

Fenrir paused in front of Draco and looked over at Lucius who nodded his head. Fenrir sat on the couch beside Draco and gently pulled him into his lap, mindful of his wings.

Everyone watched the two for a while as Fenrir whispered to Draco who eventually calmed down and cuddled the man.

"Now that that's done," Harry said, calling the attraction away from the two, "Gifts," he said, waving his wand as the gifts floated from under the tree and towards the person they were meant for.

Everyone opened their gift when Severus cleared his throat, making them look at him. He pulled a small box from his pocket and handed it to Tom.

"I know I keep rejecting you, and I'm sorry," he said as Tom took the box. "I hope this makes up for it," he said, and Tom looked at him curiously before opening the box and gasping.

"Severus," He said, before taking the object out of the box for the rest to see.

"Is that..." Rodo started, "The prince bonding ring?" And Raba finished.

Tom nodded before looking up at Sev, "Are you sure?" He asked and Severus nodded.

Tom slipped the ring on his finger before leaning forward and capturing Severus's lips.

They pulled apart as a house-elf came to tell them dinner was ready. Heading to the dining room, Lucius paused in the doorway. "Are you OK, angel?" Harry asked, seeing the man look a little green.

As soon as he nodded, Lucius booted out of the room leaving the rest of them confused.

Harry rushed after him, along with Severus and Tom. They met up with him in the bathroom where he was puking his guts out.

Harry rushed over and pulled his hair back while rubbing his back. Lucius pulled away from the toilet and slumped against Harry.

"Dad, could you check him over?" Harry asked as Lucius groaned. Severus nodded before waving his wand. A parchment appeared, and Severus read it over before handing it to Harry and pulling Tom out of the room.

Harry looked down at it and gasped. Lucius was Pregnant.
