When Harry opened his eyes again Voldemort was nowhere in sight. He peered around the room but did not see him. He took a moment to calm his breathing. He just had to figure out where he was and go from there.

Upon inspection, Harry realized he was in his room at Privet Drive. He was filled with a sense of euphoria. They were back! They were free! They were home! And best of yet, he remembered everything! He just hoped most of the people on their journey did not. But also, that Sirius would be back as well. He loved seeing the man again, he couldn't bear to part with him again.

For now, he had to focus on getting out of here. However, when he went to the door it was locked. He hated all the stupid locks on the door, he just wanted to get out of here! He thought about banging on the door and telling them to let him out, but he wasn't sure if Vernon remembered what had happened, and he wanted to delay that conversation (or more like beating) for as long as possible.

When he heard a pop outside he ran to the window. His face broke out into the biggest grin when he saw Voldemort. The man wasted no time in getting here. He was going to be saved from this hellhole and finally be truly happy! Harry began gathering the few belongings he had in the room; most of his belongings were in the cupboard.

Harry heard someone coming up the stairs and his heart began to beat faster. This was it, he was finally going to be free. When the door opened and Voldemort was there, Harry ran forward and engulfed him in a hug. "You came, you really came!"

"Of course I did. Did you doubt that?" Harry shook his head and buried it in Voldemort's shirt. Voldemort pushed Harry away, while he was happy to see him, it would be best if they moved quickly. He had easily disabled the auror outside, but he knew more would arrive soon. "We must move quickly. Do you have your things?"

"I have some of it, but most of it is in the cupboard under the stairs." Voldemort nodded his head. They quickly went downstairs. Harry saw his 'family' unconscious on the floor downstairs. At first, he wondered if they were dead, but he could see they were still breathing; he was only slightly disappointed. Voldemort opened the cupboard, grabbed the trunk, shrunk it down, grabbed Harry, and quickly apparated them to his manor.

Harry held onto Voldemort. He hated apparition. "You alright?" Voldemort asked amused. Harry just glared at him and nodded his head. Voldemort brought them inside and into his living area, where he sat Harry down on the couch. Voldemort sat next to Harry and wrapped his arm around him.

Now that everything had started to calm down, Harry was a little confused. "How were you able to get into the house? Weren't there supposed to be blood wards?"

Voldemort smirked. "Ah yes, the famous blood wards I heard so much about. Well, those were negated that night in the graveyard when I took your blood. Since I had your blood in my veins, I could now walk freely into your home." Harry was furious at that. Dumbledore said he had to keep going back there because of the wards! But if what Voldemort said was true, then those wards were long gone!

Voldemort carded his hand through Harry's hair. "Even so, if they had still been there I would have been able to get through. The wards are to keep out those who wish you harm, and I no longer wish you harm." Harry snorted at that. The Dursley's meant to do him harm, but it didn't keep them out.

Voldemort turned Harry's face to look at him. "You don't need to worry about that anymore. You will never go back there. They will never hurt you again, and one day we will get revenge on them, that I promise you. I toyed with the notion of taking care of them today, but it would have been rushed. It is something that needs to be savored." Voldemort got an evil glint in his eyes. Harry wasn't sure what he wanted done to his relatives, he just knew he wanted them out of his life.

"Thank you for saving me." Harry whispered. Voldemort looked at him warmly and brushed his thumb along Harry's cheek. "I love you so much." Harry stated affectionately.

"I love you too, minx. I will always save you when you need it. However, I will be training you now, so that need for saving will have lessened. There are no damsels in this house." Harry raised an eyebrow as Voldemort smirked. He didn't like being associated with a damsel but he could understand where Voldemort was coming from. There was a war brewing and he needed to know how to take care of himself.

"Well then, I guess it is a good thing I have the best teacher." Voldemort laughed and kissed Harry. He would enjoy his time spent with Harry. It might be hard at the beginning, but once things started going their way, there would be nothing that could stop them.

Now that the story is over, I want to thank you all for your patience. Hope you enjoyed the story! Thanks for sticking with me!

Additionally, I do plan on revising some of the chapters. Some of it will just be editing (I hadn't fully proof-read all the chapters. I felt bad about making you wait so long so I sent them out into the world without fully proof-reading so you could have them sooner), others I want to add more to. I felt like I rushed a couple of them and they just don't feel complete to me. I will not be re-doing the chapters on FanFiction. Everything revised will be done at inkitt. Once I have made all the revisions, and I am satisfied with them, I will upload them there. If you want to know when they go live, and if you want to know which specific chapters I added more to, please let me know. I will post a link to my inkitt page, when they are done, on my FanFic profile, if you would rather just watch for it there. If you don't want to have an account with inkitt but want the chapters, please let me know. It may be a little while for them to be posted (since I haven't started working on the edits yet), so please don't expect to see the edited chapters right away.
