When he stepped out of the fireplace into Snape's rooms Sirius found the other man sitting in front of the fire with a bottle of fire-whiskey next to him and two glasses. Snape gave him a dry look as he raised his glass and took a sip of the amber liquid, looking like he was waiting for an explosion. Sirius sighed and shook his head. Either Snape had been waiting for him to storm over after Harry's appointment because of the fact that he hadn't told him the teen was pregnant or he'd been waiting for someone else. Given the fact the other man didn't look surprised that he was here he was going to bet on the first one. Snape sighed heavily.

"I take it that you are here to… complain about the fact I failed to make note of the fact that Potter was pregnant when I gave you the results of the spells I used to determine his health. With everything going on in the Golden Boy's life I thought it best not to overwhelm him with the attention announcing that gem in the company that we had would bring. Announcing to the world that his seventeen year old male lover had gotten him in the family way would be overwhelming in ways that would not have done anything good to his health. Then there are not many who would agree that he should keep the child, someone might have taken steps to rid him of it before he even left the school, so I kept quiet." Snape rumbled, a sarcastic note in his voice. Sirius bit down the urge to growl at the reminder of what Harry was going to be dealing with, and what they would have to protect him from. Instead he sighed and shook his head,

"I was angry for about two minutes about that Snape. But like always there's more going on that meets the eye. And no Diggory didn't force or coerce him into a relationship. He has a creature inheritance that activated early due to the conditions he lived in. Since he was in a relationship with Diggory, one of his four mates, the combined stress of the tournament, along with his home life forced the activation. He needs all of his mates, and from the observations of his first mate and Chang you are a potential for one of the three he is missing. If he doesn't have all of his mates then he won't get the energy that he needs, and if he doesn't get that he will lose his child and become infertile. And he could die, let alone what losing his child would do to him emotionally." He stated bluntly, because if he drew this out then he wasn't going to get it out. Snape froze mid drink, his face a perfect picture of shock. In it was any other situation Sirius might have been amused, but this was far too important.

"What did you just say?" The potions master asked, his voice low. Sirius sighed, Snape wasn't the type just to accept something like this, not when it involved a 14 year old student.

"I said that Harry has an active creature inheritance, and combining that with his pregnancy he is in need of all of his mates. And we suspect that you are one of his mates, because of the change in behavior that Diggory and Chang observed. Malfoy Jr is another suspected mate… and so am I. The healer informed us that Harry can't handle his mates fighting, but he's going to need every one of us if he's going to live and carry this pregnancy to term. I don't want to know what losing this baby will do to him, so you and I? We're going to work out our differences, and then I'm going to bring you to Harry so we can confirm our assumptions." He replied, trying not to lose his temper. There was a hell of a lot of history between the two of them though. Snape downed the rest of his drink, his eyes closing tightly as he gripped the glass. Sirius was almost worried for him as his hand started trembling ever so slightly. This was hitting a nerve, finally the other man cursed.

"Damn it Black. I can't be one of his mates. Voldemort, he'd use me against him in a heartbeat and if you haven't forgotten I got his parent's killed." Snape murmured lowly, his voice self depreciating. Sirius beat down the urge to attack at the admission that he had played a part in Lily and James' death. It was one thing to think that himself, but to hear the other man admit it? He wanted to make him bleed, but Harry didn't need that. Harry needed his mates, and whether he liked it or not everyone had regrets in their past.

"And so did I. If I hadn't let Peter be the secret keeper then they might be alive. We both have regrets when it comes to Lily and James. The question is- are you going to let your fears and guilt keep you from your mate? From helping Harry now, when he needs you the most?" He replied dryly. Snape's eyes snapped open.

"I don't deserve to have a mate Black." The other man snarled, his eyes completely black, no pupil in sight. Sirius almost laughed at the confirmation that Snape was a Vampire, there had been so many jokes about it in the past. But right now it only meant one thing- Snape knew damn well that Harry was his mate and he was denying him over guilt from the past. In another life the Potions master might have had time to work through this guilt, but he didn't have that luxury right now. He had to man up and act his part. Sirius let his control on his creature go, and when the vampire inhaled shakily he knew the other man was seeing him in his true form. He smirked lazily was he brushed a lock of hair from his face- there were some perks to being an Incubi, one included the natural beauty that nothing could ruin- even mistreatment of the body.

"I think you are being a coward Severus." He said lightly, a purr in his voice. He watched as the vampire shivered at the undercurrents in his voice. "Our mate is pregnant and he needs us but you balk at that need, using the man who keeps your prisoner as an excuse not to go to him. Voldemort is not even embodied at this time, and you doubt our ability to protect Harry?" He chastised. Snape's nose flared at his easy dismissal of his fears, and Sirius was glad to see that. It meant the other man wasn't a complete coward.

"You do not understand Black. I have done horrible things, including mistreating our mate. There is no way in Merlin's name that Potter will ever accept me as one of his mates. And I don't blame him." He replied, his voice rough. Sirius rolled his eyes. Severus was underestimating Harry and his capacity for forgiveness and understanding. It wouldn't surprise him if the teen knew what the other man had been doing.

"I think in understand well enough Severus. And I think that you underestimate Harry. He's lost too much in his short life to hold grudges, and he deserves to be happy. We are part of his happiness, so what right do we have to deny him?" He replied, a cocky smile drifting over his lips. Severus snarled at him, standing up abruptly. Sirius entertained the idea that the other man would attack him, but somehow he resisted the urge that was clearly painted over his face. Sirius smirked at him as he ran a hand over his face.

"Using your charms on me will not work Black. As for Potter… It's useless to deny what I am to him, I knew it from the moment I examined him- when I felt his creature. I just didn't want to admit it. I still don't but if what you say is true then I will not fight. I agree that Potter losing his child would cause damage to his already abused psyche is ways that will never mend, and that is without the loss of fertility he will experience. But I will make amends for my actions before in engage in any sort of relationship for him. Diggory and yourself will be enough to keep him going until I feel comfortable approaching him. And if you're right about my Godson I have no doubt he will be joining the lot of you too." Severus finally spoke, his voice taking on a hard but calm tone as he spoke to the Incubus in front of him like he was just a child. Sirius snorted, not wanting to admit that the other man's reaction was impressing him. As much as part of him hated the idea, Severus Snape was one of his godson's mates and he really gave a damn about the small teen.

"Fair enough. Don't drag this out though Snape. The Medi-Wizard informed us that due to the abuse he suffered that his recommend diet of energy is twice what a normal incubus would need to maintain a healthy pregnancy. If Malfoy is his mate too, and doesn't have any qualms about helping then we can keep him healthy with three of us contributing, but not for the long haul." He replied civil. Severus flinched at his proclamation, then sighed, rubbing his forehead harshly.

"I feared as much from my examination. I will start courting him as soon as possible, and when I feel that I have earned his forgiveness then I will begin contributing." He assure the Incubus, before pointing to the fire. "If you would leave now It would be appreciated." Sirius stiffened at the dismissal, his mind going to just what was happening at his home, then he sighed.

"I'm giving Harry time to process this. I left him and Diggory alone, so he could feed in peace without feeling pressured about me. I may have jumped the gun at the bank and come onto him. I don't want him to think he has to do anything with me just because of what his healer said. I'd much rather he come to me on his own terms, so we're alike in that aspect." He admitted under his breath. Severus snorted, his cold demeanor melting just slightly as he looked over Sirius with glinting eyes.

"You were never one for self control Black. But even I was affected by the need to be close to him after the examination so I will not scorn you for 'jumping the gun' as you say. That boy has adored you since he found out about you're innocence however. I wouldn't be surprised if he was already in love or attracted to you. But I admire your self control non-the less. He does deserve enough time to fully absorb what he has learned today, but like you pointed out to me he needs his mates. Do not hold yourself back from him." He replied wryly. "You may stay within my quarters for the time being, until you are sure that enough time has passed anyways." He added, offering up a second glass. Sirius snorted, taking the glass.

"I'm not sure I could hold myself back from him. Which is why I'm not in the house while I know Diggory is 'feeding' him." He grunted, taking a seat. Severus chuckled low in his throat and shook his head, pouring the other man a drink. And the rest of the night was spent in silence.

Cho stepped out of the Floo that was specifically for Malfoy family friends and was immediately greeted by a house elf. She raised an eyebrow at the small nervous creature- because normally there was at least a few seconds between her arrival and theirs. It seemed like the little elf had been waiting for her, or someone to come through the fire. But that couldn't be true. She hadn't even thought of visiting her mother's 'friends' before Harry's appointments today. But it didn't change the fact that the small creature was nervously ushering her into the house and the further inside she got the more she could hear voices.

"I will not wait! You bloody didn't see him at school- he's bloody well pregnant. He need a hell of a lot more bloody protection then what he will get with cousin Sirius. Mother, Father- he was abused, and badly. He's been used for the bloody greater good by Dumbledore, was almost effing killed and now he's pregnant and I don't think he even bloody well realizes it! I am going to my mate!" Draco's irate voice suddenly cracked through the air. Cho bit her lip to stop herself from laughing. Of course Malfoy would already know what he was to her little brother. And even though he didn't have all of the information he was going to try and push his way into Harry's life without giving him any sort of say so if she was hearing him correctly.

They were lucky that she had scheduled all of this the first day off of break- or Harry would have been confused as hell when the blonde pushed his way into Sirius' home. And there probably would have been blood and broken bones when the other boy blurted out Harry's condition in front of Sirius. She heard a sigh as they got closer to the room the other boy's voice was coming from. It sounded stressed.

"I am not saying that you are not allowed to attend to your mate Draco. I quite agree that he will be needing you. But you must let him come to you for the fact that he has been used and abused. Demanding a place in his life, in his bed is not the way to approach this situation." Mr. Malfoy responded, his voice calm. Draco growled and then Cho heard Narcissa giggle. She didn't wait for a response as she got to the door, instead she pushed in and grinned when all eyes landed on her. Draco's face flashed through a myriad of emotions, before settling on a hard mask. She wondered just what he was thinking for about a second.

"Is Harry alright?" The blonde demanded hotly, a note of panic in his voice. She leaned against the door frame as she looked at him- decorum be damned.

"He's about as well as a pregnant 14 year old who has been abused most of his life, has an active creature inheritance complete with multiple mates and just found out he's a pureblood who should never have been placed with muggles can be." She replied sarcastically, looking over the gathered family to determine just what their reactions to her bomb would be. Draco frowned as both of his parents looked at her concerned. Mr. Malfoy in particular looked livid and Cho had to wonder if that was because of the pureblood information.

"His inheritance is active? What is it, if you don't mind me asking that is?" Narcissa asked, ever the healer even if most people just saw her as the Malfoy trophy wife. Cho took her eyes off her brother's mate- there was no what if's about Draco since the other boy had already declared himself Harry's mate. She made note to see what this boy was bringing into the creature gene pool later- because the only way he would already know who his mate was if he was a creature himself. Her eyes softened slightly on the other woman, Narcissa was not as hardened as she let everyone believe.

"Predominately Incubus, then Veela with a hint of Wizard." She replied softly, knowing that with the other information that the healer had she would understand the ramifications of her brothers inheritance on his health. Narcissa inhaled sharply as she spoke, looking at her son and husband with panic flaring in her eyes. Cho winced slightly, knowing for certain that the healer understood the position her littler brother was in far more than they did.

"Draco, pack whatever you need to. You WILL be going with Ms. Chang when she returns to your mate." Mrs. Malfoy ordered, getting off of the couch in a smooth motion, before turning and looking at Cho. "And for that matter so will I until I know my newest son and grandchild are completely stable. I trust at least one of his mates is currently with him?" She demanded icily. Cho could feel her eyes widen, because this was not the reaction she had been expecting. Draco went to speak, but his father held up a hand silencing him.

"Narcissa, darling. Just what about Ms. Chang's statement has upset you so?" He asked softly, showing Cho a side of him that she hadn't known existed. "I know that the Veelan part of his inheritance calls to his mates to protect him in his most vulnerable time. And increases the need for contact with his dominants, but the look in your eyes says there is something far more going on. Something that scares you and I want to know what that is." Narcissa gave him a scathing look at his questioning tone.

"Lucius, husband. I am Succubus- the female form of an Incubus which is the Black family creature. What happened when I became pregnant with Draco?" She asked, sarcasm heavy in her voice. Her husband flinched, echoing her look of trouble suddenly as he thought about what she was implying. Cho raised an eyebrow, because she was sure Narcissa was healthy during that time.

"Your need for sexual intake increased dramatically." Her husband murmured, his voice hesitant and unsure. She grimaced, looking at her son apologetically as he made a noise of distaste at being reminded of his parent's sex life.

"Now take that increase- which was needed for a successful pregnancy mind you and imagine it in a 14 year old child, who has been abused to the point of his inheritance activating three years early in an attempt to protect him. His body is already at a point of needing increased mounts of sexual energy. And maintaining a pregnancy increases that need by at least a third. There is a reason why Ms. Chang in here. That young man needs have to be met, or it could mean the loss of his child and fertility in the least. But most likely his death because his body will try to keep the child alive at all costs." She spelled it out starkly. Her version more realistic than what the healer had presented. Cho grimaced herself.

"The Medi-Wizard is prescribing double what he would normally suggest for a pregnant incubus, along with a high caloric diet. The damage that the muggles did to his body was more extensive than we had guessed." She offered. "His first mate is with him currently. Your son was one of the people we suspected of being one of the other three mates Harry has based on his behavior at the end of the school year. Obviously we were right."She added. Narcissa paled at her words and Draco looked ready to bolt to Harry.

"It's worse than I thought then. Damn those muggles! My cousin better get used to having a live in Medi-witch, because there is no way I am letting that child go through this pregnancy unmonitored with the dangers to his health that are already present. Who are the other two mates you suspect, just so I know who my son might be involved in a multiple mating with? I am sure that the medi-wizard also told you that he will need them all. Obviously my son and the Diggory boy will not be able to sustain his diet alone." She asked her firmly. Cho wrinkled her nose, knowing that the woman before her wouldn't rest until she knew, but not wanting to say it out loud. It was bad enough to suspect it, but since they had been right about Draco.

"Sirius Black, and Severus Snape. Professor Snape repeatedly made personal checks to the Gryffindor Towers after the tournament. Sirius went to speak with him." She finally forced herself to say. Narcissa looked shocked, but not as much as the two men. Then the blonde started laughing softly.

"Of course. Two mature creatures would be needed to balance the immature. Severus will be beating himself up over his previous treatment of the boy no doubt. And as for my cousin, he has always been abnormally attached to Harry. I should have guessed that his Incubus had found his immature mate sooner." She murmured to herself, just before her husband choked, looking at his son and then wife.

"Shouldn't we offer the manor for thier use, considering the dangers involved in this pregnancy? Not that I doubt the security that Black can offer, but he has made it known that he will not live in his family's properties. Potter- Harry is not only vunerable due to his pregnancy but his condition and the wards of the manor can be locked down to only allow those keyed into them and family in and out." He blurted. Narcissa gave him a withering look even as Cho felt herself glare at the blonde man and heard Draco growl.

"Considering your previous associations the Manor is compromised dear." Narcissa purred, before her lips twisted in an ugly sneer. "If you suddenly didn't allow them within our home they would become suspicious of you husband. And considering the fact that we have just gained a son in Harry Potter due to his mated status to our child that is the last thing that should happen." She added condescendingly, before looking at Cho sharply. "I trust there is space to accomedate both of us in my cousin's home?" She asked. Cho snorted.

"More than enough. Sirius moved into the home that was willed to him by Harry's parents. While it's not as large as this manor it is comfortable." She replied. Narcissa nodded, before turning to the door.

"Draco, you need to pack my dear. From what I gather your mate is currently alone with one person and given everything he has been through I should think that having another of his mates there would be beneficial." She called, pausing. Her son beat her to the door and then Cho was left alone with the Death Eater of the family. She looked at him, not saying a word. Surprisingly enough he shifted uncomfortably.

"I will not do a thing to harm my son's intended Ms. Chang. While I know that the Malfoy family appears to be a cold environment to the outsider we cherish our loved ones. It is the Veelan nature. The moment my son revealed who his mate was that boy became one of our own. One of my own. It is doubly so now that I know he is of Veelan blood. I will do everything in my power to see that no harm comes to him again- you can guarantee that." The older man suddenly spoke, his voice low and rougher. Filled with emotion. She blinked in surprise, because she had never seen the Malfoy male anything but perfect.

"I will hold you to that Mr. Malfoy. Because the first time it proves to be a lie will be the last." She replied, a dark promise in her voice. Harry was no longer anyone's whipping boy. Not now that she could actually protect him. And she had a feeling when Professor Snape came into the picture people would be afraid to even look at the young boy in the wrong way. The potions master had that affect on people. Mr. Malfoy bowed his head in acknowledgment of that statement and then they both settled in to wait.
