"You're a Veela?" my mate asks, stunned. I look into his wide, emerald green eyes and nod. A growl vibrates in my throat when I see my mother so close to what is mine. My mother quickly steps back and hurries downstairs.
"Close the door, Harry." I growl. He jumps and is quick to do as I commanded. I purr at his quick compliance. "Submissive." I hum, licking my lips. Harry swallows and and asks hesitantly, "Are you okay, Draco?"
I grin when my first name rolls off his tongue. "Very. Are you okay, mate?" I reply, testing the waters. "M-mate?" he squeaks. "You are my mate, Harry Potter. You are mine." I state simply. Harry grins. "Only if you are mine, Dragon." he tells me.
I lunge forward and drag his body flush to mine. "Always." I growl, kissing him with passion. Harry groans and tangles his fingers in my hair. I growl and nip at his lower lip. He gasps and I take the opportunity to slip my tongue into his mouth. He moans and I purr in pleasure.
I pull away and look at my flushed mate with lazy eyes. "Mine." I rumble. "Yours." he sighs. nuzzling his face into the crook of my neck. Suddenly, he pulls out his wand and says a quick cleaning spell. Everything in my room is put back together and my bed is made.
"Thanks, Raven." I chuckle. "No problem, Dragon. Wouldn't want the great Draco Malfoy to have anything of his in disarray." he replies cheekily. I tap his nose and he wrinkles it up adorably. "Cute, Potter." I grin. "Whatever, Malfoy." he huffs.
This is when I notice the crimson and gold wings adorning his back. "You're wings are the colors of your House." I comment. "As are yours." he replies, gesturing to my wings. I look at them. "So they are." I agree.
We spend the rest of the night talking and at 10:00 p.m., he leaves, promising to see me at school, which starts in a week.
I wake up to sunlight shining in my eyes. "Crap." I groan, sitting up. I get dressed and trudge to the living room. My mother is sitting on the couch and I yawn a quick good morning. "Good morning, Draco. Sort things out with your mate?" she asks smiling at me. I grin and nod. I sit on the couch and tell her of last night's events (leaving out the kissing and such, of course.) and she listens with an interested ear.
When I finish, she hugs me. "I'm so glad you found your mate, Draco. You will need him." she tells me. I nod, as I know this to be true. "Mother? His birthday is soon enough. What do I get him?" I ask, sorting through my mind for the perfect gift.
My mother smiles warmly and clasps her hands in front of her. "What does he enjoy or like?" she responds. "Quidditch, DADA, quality time with his friends, and anything sweet." I tell her off the top of my head.
"Why don't you get him something for Quidditch? A broom or something might suffice." she suggests after a moment. I nod. "Yeah, that would work. Thanks, mum." I say.
A split second later, I apperate to Diagon Alley for a quick shopping trip. As I browse, I see a shop that sells specialty brooms. Right before I enter, I spot a pet shop witha beautiful snowy owl in the window. I think back to something that Harry said last night.
"One of the hardest parts of the war, for me at least, was when my owl, Hedwig, was killed. She offered the companionship that I needed desperately during the summers. I miss her."
I walk briskly to the pet shop, as a Malfoy doesn't run, and ask the employee to bring me a female snowy owl. He does and I ask, "How much for her?" "Ten Galleons." the employee says in a bored tone. I pull out the money and leave the shop with a gift for my mate.
I apparate home and show the owl to my mother. "She's beautiful, Draco. But why." she asks. "Harry's first snowy owl was killed in the beginning of the war. Her misses her, so I got him a new one to ease the pain of the loss." I tell her.
"Then this gift is absolutely perfect. Good work, son." she says smiling at me warmly. "I hope he likes her." I whisper, stroking the bird's wing thoughtfully. "He will. Don't worry, love." my mother assures me. I nod and say no more.
*A/N* Hey. Finally updated! Yay. I'm working on chapter four now, so don't worry. Love y'all!
