Chapter 19 : A Ritual on All Hallows Eve

After our 'talk' with Snape and the reprogramming he went through made it so in classes he completely ignored us and only kept up his old attitude around Dumbledore so as not to draw unwanted attention, things between Tom and I had changed with it.

"I have found a ritual I wished to do with you on All Hallows Eve." Tom hissed quietly to me to not draw attention from the others in our study group. Giving him a slightly confused look, I decided to just nod in return before focusing back on helping Neville and Blaise with their homework so it could be finished.

"What ritual is it that you wish to do?" I asked later as we headed to eat dinner in the kitchens instead of the Great Hall.

"Let's just say it will help us further our plans." He said vaguely as he started to eat the food in front of him making me roll my eyes but follow his example by eating my food. The days leading up to All Hallows Eve was spent with Tom getting everything he needed ready for the ritual while I wrote back and forth to Sirius while also spending time with my followers.

"You seem to be getting awfully close to Riddle Little Lord." Blaise commented one day when it was just Neville, him, and I in the Dormitory.

"Is that going to be a problem?" I asked with a raised eyebrow curious on what his response would be.

"Not really. I trust that you know not to fall for any of his lies, just as I trust that you would never bow to him." Blaise said as he watched my reactions while leaning back and against Neville who had yet to say anything.

"And you Nev? What are your thoughts on this subject?" I asked turning to face him with a curious look as he grimaced as he met my eyes with his own.

"I trust you Hadrian. Plus, he seems to be the only one that could REALLY be your equal." Neville said softly without looking at Blaise who looked shocked at his words.

"You know that by working with Riddle, we will be working alongside his Death Eaters including Bellatrix and the Lestrange brothers...?" I say just as softly truly wondering how he felt about working alongside the people who had tortured his parents.

"It was war. They knew what they were getting into when they agreed to work in the Order of the Phoenix." Neville said just as softly as if afraid to voice his true thoughts on the matter.

"Well then to answer both of your questions. I feel a connection with Riddle, what that will lead to I have no clue but no matter what I will never bow or take orders from him." I say back with confidence making both boys relax and smile toward me. When the day of All Hallows Eve arrived Tom and I used a Time turner to go back in time after spending the day being seen by everyone and acting like normal happy teens.

"Now will you tell me what this ritual is?" I asked as I stepped into the R.O.R in nothing but a white robe since I had to take a cleansing bath to rid myself of any impurities.

"Mother Magic, Hecate, has always allowed two of her chosen to bind themselves together as one in order to pull on more of Her magic and the Mother Gaia's. That is the Ritual I wish to do this night. You are the only one worthy of being called my Equal Hadrian, let me prove it by doing this Ritual. It will not only bind our life forces into one but also allow us to feel what the other feels. No secrets can be kept from one another." Tom answers with honesty as he moved to stand in front of my stunned form.

"This will also help Hecate, with both of Her Chosen's bound as one She draws strength faster from us, allowing Her to gain Her own strength back faster." He continues doing everything in his power to convince me.

"If I allow this and even go through with the Ritual, you have to swear that we will be TRUE Equals. Neither of us can give the other orders nor will we be forced to bow to the other." I answer with as my mind tried to stay ahead and think of all consequences once I go through with this.

"I so swear." He answered back with no hesitation as he moved forward to kiss me in thanks for giving him this chance.

"MOTHER MAGIC, HECATE, WE ASK FOR YOUR BLESSING IN BINDING US AS ONE! FROM THIS DAY FORTH WE SHALL BE BOUND AND NO LONGER CONSIDERED AS SEPARATE BEINGS. WE ALSO CALL UPON MOTHER GAIA TO GIVE HER SUPPORT TO HELP US STAND THROUGH ALL HEARTACHE AND SORROWS TO COME. SO, WE SWEAR, SO MOTE IT BE!" We chanted together fully naked and covered in Runes that reflected the others. It was with a flash of brilliant light and searing pain that Hecate and Mother Gaia answered our pleas and blessed the Ritual allowing it to be a success.

"I can feel you." I say with awe to be heard clearly in my voice.

"As I can feel you." Tom said with a smile as he didn't hesitate to move forward and pull me into a blistering kiss that was doubled in pleasure through the double connection we now shared.

"There is no turning back from this." Tom warned once he pulled away to watch me in dazed confusion.

"I had no wish to turn back. You are truly mine as I am yours." I answer with causing him to smirk in pleasure and pride before once again pulling me into a kiss. Many things would now be changing and yet I couldn't in anyway regret it since it brought me him. I would no longer have to fear ruling alone.
