Enjoy! This chapter is dedicated to Cased in Darkness for giving me the idea of the wolf as a familiar!
Chapter 45
13th of October
Harry hummed while he slowly rocked back and forth in the wooden, white rocking chair, watching how Conall greedily drunk from his bottle with warm milk. His son was dressed in a light blue crawler with a laughing sun stitched on the front today.
It was seven in the morning and Conall had woken up ten minutes ago, demanding to have his milk. Draco had offered to feed his son, giving Harry the chance to rest more, but he had refused. He liked feeding his son and found it fascinating to watch how eager his baby was to drink his milk.
He still couldn't believe that this tiny, beautiful being came from his own body and he couldn't take his eyes off his son. It had been a rather eventful pregnancy, but in the end it had been worth it. Even his forced bed rest had been worth it to see his son here in his arms healthy and safe.
He smiled and placed the empty bottle on the nightstand, standing up and after having placed a towel on his shoulder, he settled his son against his shoulder and softly patted his back and was rewarded with the sound of a burp, feeling warm liquid soaking the towel.
"Good baby," he whispered and threw the filthy towel in the hamper placed next to the wardrobe. He began to rock Conall in his arms and watched how Conall's light grey eyes slowly fluttered close. Conall made a soft smacking sound with his plump lips and snuggled a bit closer to his daddy's chest before his breathing slowed, signalizing he had fallen asleep again.
Not ready to relinquish his son, Harry sat back down in the rocking chair, content to watch his youngest son sleep.
He looked up when the door suddenly opened and expecting to see Draco, he was therefore very surprised when Luna entered the room with a dreamy smile on her face as usual.
"Luna?" he whispered surprised. "What are you doing here? I thought you went home?"
Luna smiled and came forwards to him, kneeling down on the ground so she could look at Conall on his own height.
"He's a very beautiful boy," she whispered and she stroked his chubby cheek with her forefinger, keeping the touch light enough to not wake up the sleeping baby.
Harry smiled and looked down at his son. He looked up when he felt a slender hand covering his own.
Light blue eyes looked right into his own and Luna was watching him with a strange look on her face.
"Is there something wrong?" he asked worriedly.
"I need to talk to you about the pregnancy potion you took," Luna murmured.
He frowned. "What is there to talk about?"
"You know how most pregnancy potions expel the womb when the man gives birth?"
Harry got a bad feeling about this. "What do you mean 'most potions'? Are there ones that don't expel the womb?"
She nodded and directed her attention to his stomach, startling him when she placed her hand on his stomach which was still a bit rounded. He would have to work on that; now that he had his baby, he wanted his abs back too.
"Luna?" he asked warily and the bad feeling got a notch higher.
"When you gave birth yesterday, you only expelled the afterbirth," Luna answered. "The womb didn't follow."
"What?" Harry asked dazed and he tightened his grip on his baby unconsciously, only loosening it when Conall whined in protest.
"It's a bit too early to tell with certainty, but I suspect that the pregnancy potion was made from the oldest recipe in the book. They don't use that recipe nowadays, because the womb stays in the body and men don't want that particular organ to stay behind after the birth. So the Potions Masters developed new potions that would expel the womb immediately after the afterbirth." She looked at him with soft eyes, her hand still on his stomach. "I could be wrong of course, but if your body doesn't expel your womb in two days, then we can be sure that your womb stays."
"The womb stays?" Harry repeated with a high voice. The womb would stay in his body? No, that couldn't be. He had counted on the fact that the womb would disappear after the birth. After the first few months he had come to love the pregnancy and he loved the fact that he was able to carry his own child, but he was still a man. And men weren't supposed to have wombs in their bodies. Merlin, would he never be able to be normal?
"There is a high chance, yes," Luna said. "But don't worry, if you use protection charms, you won't get pregnant again. As long as you use protection, you can go on without fearing to get pregnant."
"But the womb stays?" Harry asked for confirmation.
"Probably." She nodded.
"Oh," was all he could bring out before he stared out the window. So he would need to use protection like a woman if he didn't want to end up pregnant again. That was just fucking great. As if he wasn't special enough with his status as war hero, now he had to worry about a possible future pregnancy as well. Fucking splendid.
"Harry? Ah, here you are." Draco's voice sounded cheery when he entered the room. "Lovegood, what are you doing here?"
"Just saying hi to Conall," Luna replied with a smile. "I have another appointment now, so I'll see you soon, Harry!" She waved and skipped out the room.
Draco turned to Harry and his smile grew bigger when he saw his lover sitting in the chair with their son bundled up against his chest.
"And how are you doing today?" Draco whispered and bent down to give Harry a soft kiss on his lips before kissing Conall on his forehead. "Hey there, little guy."
Harry made a noncommittal grunt, but didn't really pay attention to his lover; his mind still busy with coming to terms with the fact that the womb was there to stay.
"Are you okay?" Draco asked, frowning and pulled Harry's chin up so that he could face him.
Harry took a deep breath and smiled. "I'm fine, don't worry."
Draco looked at him suspiciously for a moment, but then a smile broke out on his face again. He held out his arms and Harry placed Conall in his papa's arms. "So have you thought about who you want to be Conall's godparents?" he asked, humming a bit.
"Well, obviously we can't escape from naming Daphne as his godmother," Harry smiled and Draco chuckled. "As for his godfather …" Harry hesitated a bit and Draco stopped humming, looking at him intently. "I want Snape to be his godfather if that is okay with you."
"Sev?" Draco asked surprised. "You want Severus as godfather?"
"Listen if you don't want, then we can choose someone else," Harry said hurriedly.
"No, no, Severus is fine," Draco smiled reassuringly. "I'm just surprised you chose him, that's all."
"Well, the man did help me when I was in school," Harry admitted. "And he's not such a bad guy once you get past his sarcastic comments."
Draco chuckled. "I'm sure he will be thrilled to hear he will be his godfather."
Harry snorted. "Mind you, if he does anything to hurt Conall, I will hex off his balls and shove them somewhere where the sun doesn't shine," he smiled angelically and Draco swallowed before smiling back weakly.
When Conall was a month old, Scorpius surprised them by asking a very innocent question.
"Daddy?" Scorpius began, swishing his legs back and forth, wiggling on his chair.
Harry turned around to face him and grabbed the bottle of milk, that was now ready, to give to Conall. "Yes, sweetie?"
Draco was rocking Conall back and forth, trying to calm him down while he waited for his bottle with milk which was quickly handed to his papa. They both sighed relieved when Conall stopped crying and started to suck eagerly from his bottle.
"When Conall can speak, does that mean he has to call you mummy?" Scorpius asked with huge, innocent eyes.
Harry chocked in his coffee, hastily putting the cup down to avoid spilling. "What? Why would he call me mummy?" he asked aghast.
"Because he came out of your belly," Scorpius explained as if it was obvious. "I came from my mummy's belly, so I call her mummy. Conall came out of your belly so he has to call you mummy, right?"
Harry groaned and smacked his forehead while Draco started to snigger.
"Stop laughing!" he hissed and kicked Draco against his leg underneath the table.
Draco just smirked. "Now, now, that was a reasonable question," he paused for a few seconds, "mummy."
Harry growled and stormed out of the kitchen, leaving a laughing Draco behind and a very confused Scorpius who wondered what he had said wrong.
When Conall was seven months old, the day was there to have an official wedding between Draco and Harry. Of course they were already officially bonded, but they wanted to celebrate it with their friends and family. It was also a way to show that nobody would tear them apart.
Dennis Creevey had gotten his trial five months ago and Harry had attended it, together with Draco, because he was his spouse. The trial had lasted two days and in the end the jury had decided to give Dennis the Kiss, because five Healers who had examined him had declared him unfit for society and likely to kill again should he be left free one day.
He died the day after the trial and Harry had mourned for the cheerful boy that he had once been before he had been torn apart and eaten up by hatred.
Harry shook his head and pressed down his robe. Critically he studied himself in the mirror. He was wearing a white suit with a black robe over it to signify his status as someone being wed into the Malfoy family. Draco would wear a black suit with a white robe.
Although they had been officially bonded for almost a year now, Harry couldn't squash down the butterflies that were rampaging in his stomach. Today he would marry his love in front of a public and that was something entirely else than marrying in front of their boys and old Headmistress.
"Come on, Potter, you can do it," he murmured and took a deep breath. After a couple of months of intense training he had finally gotten his abs back and he was damned proud of it. He had celebrated the return of his abs with a night full of satisfying sex, but only, of course, after he had placed the protection charm. He still hadn't told Draco about the fact that he was now able to carry children without ever swallowing a potion again.
He didn't know what held him back from saying it. After all, Draco had the right to know that Harry could get pregnant again if he forgot to use protection. But the longer he kept silent about it, the more difficult it became to speak about it so in the end he just kept his mouth shut. Maybe he would tell his lover about it after the honeymoon. Maybe.
Because they had their three boys to think of and Harry's new job as a Mediwizard (which he had been doing for four months now after having passed the tests with flying colours) they had decided to keep their honeymoon short. A week was enough for them to enjoy each other's company before they would return back to their sons.
"Dad?"
He turned around when he heard Teddy's voice and smiled when he saw the boy standing in the doorway, dressed in dark blue robes, holding his little brother in his arms. Conall was babbling in his own language, giggling every time Teddy would look down at him and smile.
Conall was dressed in pure white robes.
"Teddy," Harry smiled and his son came closer, being careful not to drop his little brother.
"Draco is getting impatient," Teddy told him and took a seat on the bed, putting Conall down next to him on a pillow, absently tickling the boy's stomach, making Conall giggle louder.
"Is he now?" Harry hummed and knelt down in front of his sons. "Conall, you're going to be a good boy and don't make your two brothers tired, hm, sweetie?" he whispered and smiled when Conall babbled something that sounded like an agreement and his chubby, little hand shot out to grab Harry's nose. Harry held the tiny hand between his two fingers and kissed it, making the boy shriek with delight.
Harry laughed and turned to Teddy who was smiling at him.
"I promise to take good care of him, dad," Teddy said, letting Conall grab his pinkie and suck on it.
"I know you're going to take good care of him. You're a good brother, sweetie," Harry smiled and brushed a kiss on the boy's forehead.
Teddy blushed. "I'm going to miss you."
"I'm going to miss you too, sweetheart," Harry murmured and hugged him tightly. "But it's only for a week and then we're back again." He pulled back to look into Teddy's sea green eyes. "Are you happy, Teddy?"
A soft smile lit up the boy's face. "Yes, I'm happy, dad."
"That's good to hear," Harry smiled and stood up. "Well then, I suppose we should go downstairs before Draco gets even more impatient," he smirked and Teddy laughed.
Harry picked up Conall and took Teddy by the hand, letting him lead him to the backyard where they would hold the service.
Scorpius was standing there at the beginning of the path, a basket with flower in his hands. He had insisted on being the flower boy ever since he had seen a picture of a flower girl in one of the magazines Harry had looked through together with his wedding planner. The wedding planner was an old friend of him and although the profession seemed like such a weird choice for his friend, he was very good at it and he wouldn't have any other preparing his wedding. Currently his friend was seated next to Luna and right behind Snape who was for once not frowning or glaring.
Before the service started, Harry handed Conall to his godfather, the boy now interested in grabbing Snape's hair. After a couple of times of pulling away, Snape resigned to his fate of having his hair tugged by a little tyke who was not even one years old yet. He was becoming too soft.
Draco smiled when Harry arrived next to him at the altar and grabbed his hand. "Are you ready?"
"Of course I am. What, do you think I'm running off now?" Harry smirked, but his eyes betrayed his nervousness.
"Just making sure you really want this," Draco smiled, but even he seemed nervous.
"Believe me when I say that there is nowhere else I want to be than with you," Harry said completely serious, ignoring the flush that formed on his cheeks.
Draco smirked proudly and turned to face McGonagall who would, once again, held the service.
"Family and friends, we are here gathered today to witness the union of Draco Lucius Malfoy and Harry James Potter," she began with a smile.
"Well, at least you made sure that the little imp wasn't born out of wedlock," Blaise smirked and raised his glass with champagne to Draco who flipped him off.
"Oh bugger off," he said good naturedly.
"No; serious now, I'm happy for you, Draco," Blaise said earnestly and Draco smiled, both men watching how Harry was feeding Conall while Teddy was chattering to him. Scorpius was being cuddled by his mother just a few feet away from them.
It was time for Harry and Draco to do the traditional first dance and Teddy held out his arms to pick up Conall. It was strange how much he cared for the little boy now, while he had resented him when he was still in his father's stomach. But now he couldn't imagine his little brother out of the family, just like he couldn't imagine not having Scorpius in his family. Sure the boy still annoyed him at moments, but Teddy suspected that all little brothers did that so he didn't mind much. Besides he rather liked being the big brother.
He smiled when he heard his dad laugh happily when he and Draco began to dance. He was happy that he finally had a family of his own now.
He turned his head towards the back of the big garden when he felt a familiar pair of eyes watching him. He smiled at Conall who watched him with big, grey eyes, the same as his papa.
"What do you say of saying hello to Moony?" he asked the baby who gurgled happily.
Moony was the wolf that had rescued his dad and him from the man who had kidnapped him. He had been first made aware of the wolf's presence in the garden when he had been taking a walk a few weeks after his dad had bonded with Draco. He had been afraid first that the wolf would attack him, but instead the wolf had come towards him and had allowed him to pet him. After that day he always came to the garden to play with Teddy and Scorpius. Remembering his father's nickname when he was in school, he started calling the wolf Moony which seemed to fit him.
At least now he knew that his father was still out there to protect him.
"Scorpius, be a good boy and don't annoy Uncle Sev too much, all right?" Draco asked amused.
He and Harry would leave in a couple of minutes with a Portkey that would bring them to an island owned by the Malfoys where they would spend their honeymoon.
Scorpius pouted. "I never annoy Uncle Sev."
Severus snorted, but chose not to comment on that.
"Thanks for taking care of them while we are away," Harry smiled and handed Conall over to Snape.
"At least then they will behave," Severus smirked and rocked Conall back and forth automatically. He had been shocked when he heard that he had been chosen as the boy's godfather, by Potter no less, but he had never questioned the young man about the reasons. They had developed a mutual respect for each other throughout the months they had spent together and both trusted each other.
"Thanks anyway," Harry smiled and turned around to hug Teddy and Scorpius. "I'll see you in a week, sweeties!" He gave them each a kiss on their forehead and kissed Conall on his nose, making the boy smile.
"Does this mean that daddy will have another baby in his belly again?" Scorpius shocked them by asking that.
"Excuse me?" Harry asked, gaping. What was it with Scorpius and babies?
"Well, mummy said that after marriage comes babies, so 'cause you and papa married today, does this mean that we will get another baby soon?" Scorpius asked innocently. "Can we have a sister this time?"
"Eh, we have to think about that one, all right, Scorpius?" Draco smiled and pushed Harry towards the Portkey, a black cauldron.
"All right, papa, daddy, have fun!" Scorpius waved and they waved back before the Portkey activated and took them away to the island.
"Seriously, what is it with Scorpius and his obsession of seeing me pregnant?" Harry wondered and sat down on the bed. They had conveniently landed in the bedroom and he could smell the salty air of the sea near them.
Draco shrugged helplessly. "How should I know what that boy thinks?" He studied Harry intently. "What do you think of another baby?"
Harry took a deep breath. "Well, it's a bit too early to think about that, don't you think? Conall isn't even a year old yet."
"Yes, you're right," Draco smiled and sat down next to him. "We have plenty of time later to think about another child."
"My thoughts exactly," Harry smirked and with one quick whispered spell, their robes and suits disappeared, leaving them both completely naked.
Draco raised an eyebrow. "My, my, Harry, a bit impatient?"
"Oh, just shut up and kiss me," Harry chuckled and pulled Draco towards him, eagerly kissing the soft lips that tasted like vanilla.
They both wasted no time in exploring each other's bodies and it wasn't long before they both were flushed and sweaty all over.
"Fuck, where is that lube?" Draco cursed and shot out of the bed to search for the tube.
Harry waited until his lover was in the bathroom before he grabbed his wand and casted the protection charm – a charm which he had gotten quite adapt at. He really should start looking for charms that would last longer than one night.
"Found it!" Draco grinned triumphantly and crawled back on the bed, right between Harry's spread legs. He opened the tube and squirted the clear gel on his fingers rubbing it between his fingers to make it warm.
Just when he was about to start preparing his husband, his hand was grabbed and pulled back. He looked up confused. "Harry?"
Harry just smiled at him, his green eyes sparking with lust while his red, swollen, bruised lips begged to be kissed again. God, he would never get enough of this man.
"Just put the lube on. I want you to take me without prep," Harry smiled and guided his hand between his legs.
Draco frowned. "Are you sure, Harry? It's going to hurt a lot," he warned him. He had only taken Harry once without preparation and that had been when he had been tied against the bed and had nothing to say about it. He didn't want to hurt his husband.
"I don't care," Harry said determined. "I want to feel you inside me now."
Draco groaned at the husky voice and spread the lube over him. Harry surprised him by getting up on his hands and knees, displaying his body for Draco's lustful gaze.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" Harry breathed and glanced back. "Fuck me."
That did it.
Quick as a snake Draco got up behind him and placed his right hand on Harry's hip, spreading his legs with the other one.
"Are you ready?" he whispered and after getting the nod, he began to push forward slowly, biting his lip when he felt himself being surrounded by heat.
With an impatient sound, Harry pushed back roughly, making both men gasp and pause.
"Oh fuck, you feel so fucking tight," Draco hissed and clenched his eyes shut.
Harry shifted and tried to get used to the burning feeling. It wasn't that bad, he supposed. After the burning ceased a bit, he sighed. "Move," he muttered loud enough for Draco to hear and that was all he had to say before they set a quick, satisfying rhythm.
Sweat slicked their bodies, making it easier to glide against each other and it wasn't long before the burning heat in their lower bellies spread out, enveloping all their senses and drowning them in it; white sparks appearing behind their closed eyelids.
They sagged down on the bed when the heat finally released them; both their breaths coming out in pants.
"Fuck, that was incredible," Harry sighed and snuggled in Draco's arms after he had pulled away. His whole body felt sore as hell, but he welcomed the pain, relishing in it, knowing it came from very satisfying sex.
"Did I hurt you much?" Draco asked worriedly. He had been rougher than usual and that combined with the fact that he hadn't prepared Harry made him afraid he had hurt Harry.
"Stop worrying; I'm fine," Harry smiled and gave him a slow kiss, showing him his love.
"You're going to be the death of me, Potter," Draco sighed.
Harry laughed. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Another smile was shared, another kiss and then the newlywed couple fell asleep in each other's arms, their legs tangled together.
