James Potter had been a genius, at least Harry thought so. Sure he had also been a bit of a bully but considering the targets had all been Death Eaters Harry was perfectly fine ignoring that. While magically speaking his mother had been a much better student Harry made this judgement based on the fact that he'd had the Retreat built for his mother. While they had never gotten to use it as its current occupant Harry felt like he was currently living in paradise. In the near month he'd been living there Harry spent most of his time relaxing and just having fun.
What had started with just him, Remus and Sirius living there had lasted only a few days before the Tonks family moved in after he'd invited them to stay for the summer. As magicals they could live anywhere in the country and still work, which all three of them did. Edward Tonks was a law wizard for a very reputable firm which was now on retainer for House Potter and Black.
Andromeda was a Healer and of course their daughter Nymphadora Tonks was a trainee auror. Of course with all three living there Nymphadora, who despised her first name also couldn't be called by her family name and as such had settled for Dora. As a 2nd year trainee she also didn't work full time in the auror offices yet, instead she worked a part-time schedule four hours a day.
This meant she had plenty of time to enjoy the amenities of the house alongside Harry. As such they'd become rather close in only a matter of weeks and could usually be found together. During the first two weeks of their stay Dora had taught him how to swim and had volunteered to be his partner for his dance lessons. Spending so much time with her he'd come to regard and trust her as highly as he did Hermione and had sadly concluded that she deserved better than Remus.
Remembering everything the old wolf had put her through before they died had only reinforced that decision in his eyes. He'd also determined that Hermione deserved better friends than he and Ron had been to her last time through and was determined to ensure both of them were treated better.
He'd been in the midst of developing a plan and had been struck by inspiration when he realized he'd never been told he couldn't tell anyone about the future he came from. With that in mind he rather quickly started coming up with a plan on who to tell and how to tell them. Such a thing did not go unnoticed, and he found himself once more in the Waystation with Zachriel almost as soon as he fell asleep that night. The statement that sleep is the cousin of death was apparently truer than most knew.
The Angel had simply met with him to inform him that he couldn't tell just anyone about the future. He could tell people he was bonded to but aside from that he wouldn't be able to say much. However because it hadn't come up before they were going to allow him a one-time exception to tell people he thought absolutely needed to know. Together they put together a rather small list of people that met his needs and the angels approval. Once that was done, however, that knowledge would be locked deeply in his mind and only those he bonded with would then be able to find out.
It took nearly a week before Harry was ready to tell anyone, mostly as he was waiting for Hermione to return from vacation. In the meantime he'd had Dobby acquire the Potter family pensieve which surprise, surprise Dumbledore had stashed away in the Headmasters office. That was actually how a small group of people found themselves seated within the loggia in the retreat, the group consisted of the Tonks family, Sirius, Remus, Hermione and Amelia Bones who'd he'd had to send an invitation and Remus drove in. While he had fixed the words to allow residents and long-staying guest to apparate in or out of the property, there was no floo access and never would be while the only one with a portkey aside from himself was Hermione.
"Thank you all for coming. I have a lot of stuff that I think you guys should know which is why the pensieve is here. While some of it may not seem important on the surface it all ties in together. I asked Madam Bones to be here as she is in the best position to help and hopefully keep things from spiraling out of control in the future." Said Harry giving all of them a look so serious it caused them to pause.
"What I'll be showing you are my memories from my fourth year at Hogwarts to the point where I died in what should have been my seventh year." Said Harry stunning them.
"Mr. Potter are you saying you came back from the future?" questioned Amelia her tone surprised.
"Yes, or rather I was sent back to a time where I could do the most good and help save lives."
"How, there's no way to travel that far back, not even a time tuner." Said Hermione
"No way for us maybe. Let's just say the power of Death transcends time." Said Harry causing her to blink.
"I know you all have questions, but I think you should save them until after you've seen all of it."
It took nearly three hours before all of the memories were gone through after which Sirius had called Dobby and had him deliver some Firewhiskey and butterbeer for Harry and Hermione. As for his best friend she simply launched herself at him and he held her while she cried, reassuring her that he was fine and wasn't going anywhere. When the drinks arrived none of the adults hesitated and while he knew Hermione didn't partake often with Butterbeer due to the influence of her dentist parents she downed her first glass quickly then asked for another.
"Is there any way to prevent him from being revived?" questioned Andromeda.
"No, that part has to happen. I'm just hoping to get through it without a full-on war." Said Harry
"What the hell was Dumbledore playing at! He could have ended it much earlier and he sent three kids out to hunt those things with no knowledge of what to do!" exclaimed Ted.
"Believe me he's lucky he's already dead." Said Sirius his voice low and nearly growling.
"Calm down Padfoot, let's figure out a way to help the cub, then we can figure out how to murder the dead." Said Remus his eyes bleeding amber.
"They need to be exposed for the monsters that they are." Said Hermione wiping at her face but her tone was the hard one he recognized from his 5th year, which meant she would not compromise.
"We can't let them skate through or fall back on their pretty titles. People need to see them for what they actually are, expose all of their crimes." Said Dora, she was curled into her dad's side where he pulled her after seeing her fall in battle.
"I'll have some additional questions added for the Death Eater trials. As for everything else that may take some doing, first we're going to need a wartime Minister. I can't put myself in that type of risk, not with Susan's safety to worry about." Said Amelia
They talked for another two hours just spit balling initial ideas. Nothing was finalized and no plan was in place, that would take several more meetings but Harry for his part was happy he wasn't going to go through all of it alone.
The next few weeks seemed to fly by as just about everyone in Harry's circle was busy. Harry had finally started to venture out from home to mostly at the insistence of Sirius and Andromeda, taking day trips out to both muggle and magical places. Hermione usually joined him, especially on the muggle trips, such as the shopping expedition Dora took him on to secure a new wardrobe.
He'd visited Longbottom Hall to spend time with Neville alongside Hermione which resulted in Neville getting a wand matched for him a few years early instead of trying to use his father's wand. His grandmother Augusta had been quite embarrassed as Neville's trouble in school was pretty much her fault due to forcing him to use his father's wand, which was not a match for him.
They'd also visited the Burrow and Harry had not been surprised to find out that Molly was not a fan of some of the changes that the ICW was implementing but had taken silent pleasure when Hermione pointed out that it would be impossible to trap someone in a relationship using potions or contracts. By that point both he and Hermione knew that several people had used the recent events to leave marriages they were trapped in, including the wives of suspected Death Eaters.
Unfortunately he'd also had to cut Ron down in front of his family, pointing out if not for recent events he'd probably never have found someone who wanted to be with him permanently. Pointing out his chronic laziness, horrible table and social manners and the fact that if not for Hermione he'd be failing his classes had not been a fun conversation to have.
He, however, had softened the blow by stating he knew Ron could be an amazing person but would have to overcome his laziness, jealousy, and his rather baseless bigotry. He'd pointed out that Ron's own grandmother, Arthur's mother was both a Black and a Slytherin and yet he'd had an irrational hatred of Slytherins before he'd ever stepped foot in Hogwarts.
Ron hadn't been the only one he'd laid into as he'd served Percy up and the Twins just the same. The Twins and Percy he'd actually given worse than Ron pointing out all of their flaws, how many enemies the Twins had made in the castle and the fact that Percy's attitude was the reason he didn't have any friends. Molly had been horrified by the things he'd revealed while Arthur, Bill and Charlie, he found out later had waited until he and Hermione left to lay into their brothers.
As for Ginny he'd surprised her when he gave her a hug causing her to blush, then told her that he wasn't the person the books said he was, that those stories were all fake but that he would always be her friend and be there if she needed him.
Then remembering that Bill was a cursebreaker pulled him aside and asked if she'd ever seen a healer after she was possessed by Voldemort's shade. He'd then had to inform Bill about the basilisk and the diary as apparently no one else had. Bill thanked him for the information and looking out for his family then told him he'd take care of everything.
He then told Bill about one of his plans and why he'd brought everything out getting a look of surprise from him which turned to gratitude. He'd apologized for upsetting them all but stated the Twins and Ron were supposed to be his friends, they were the people he was closest to outside of Hermione and he seriously hoped they'd do the same if they saw he was messing up so badly.
He'd run into Luna in Diagon Alley and struck up a conversation with her over ice cream at Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor and run into Daphne Greengrass and Tracy Davis at Flourish and Blotts, he didn't know either well but remembered them fighting for Hogwarts during the battle in what should have been his 7th year. He'd had to correct them on the assumption that he didn't like Slytherins, informing them that his grandmother had been a Slytherin, the hat had wanted to put him in Slytherin and that he disliked Malfoy and his cronies. That had opened both of them up for a more civil conversation and a tentative friendship with the two girls he was now allowed to owl.
Then came the trials, which being conducted by the ICW, were open to the public and allowed the use of veritiserum. The first had been Barty Crouch Sr. who'd broken his son out of Azkaban after switching him out with his dying mother thus faking his death. He was also charged with holding his son captive using the Imperious curse since breaking him out. Unfortunately Barty Jr. had escaped when his house was raided killing three aurors in the process.
Crouch Sr. was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison. Then came the trial of Deloris Umbridge who, to no surprise for Harry, had been charged with a host of crimes including corruption, extortion, torture and murders. Harry had only been surprised when her life sentence was stated to be in Bermuda which suddenly explained why people were said to disappear in the Bermuda Triangle.
Those had only been appetizers as immediately following her had been the trial for Minister Fudge. The level of corruption that he'd admitted to stunned even Harry, though it shouldn't have considering he kept a beast as vile as Umbridge in his employ. Fudges testimony given through the forceful application of veritiserum, his pureblood exemption being completely ignored, had only opened a bigger can of worms resulting in the exposure of many throughout the Ministry and the Wizengamont.
Following that had come the fourth and final trial of the day that of Lucius Malfoy for the crime of using the Killing Curse against Harry, during which numerous other crimes had been revealed including bribery, extortion, kidnapping, rape and even the murder of the late Lord Arcturus Black III. That however was just the tip of the iceberg as he also confessed to his crimes as a Death Eater which had been completely vile and revealed that the Dark Mark could only be taken willingly and not even the Imperious Curse could get around that. It was a blow that destroyed not only Lucius but all of the Death Eaters who used the Imperious defense after the war.
The following days had seen the trials for many other captured Death Eaters, including Snape all of them having their crimes revealed to the world which were just as vile as those of Lucius Malfoy's. The narrative that these were all fine upstanding citizens was set ablaze by their testimonies. They'd been sentenced to prisons spread throughout the entire magical world, at least the English-speaking prisons.
Snape's crimes had been numerous including being responsible for multiple rapes within Slytherin house in Hogwarts and leaking the addresses of muggleborn students but the reveal that he'd set Voldemort after the Potters hoping that both James and then baby Harry would die so that he could claim the newly widowed Lily had people in the courtroom screaming for his death. Seeing the crowd was out for blood Snape was thrown directly through the Veil of Death.
That had been the last trial that Harry had attended, and he hadn't actually left the house much since then. After the trials were over the ICW had left Britain for the most part only a small contingent staying behind due to the impending start of the Legacy Preservation Accords which he only knew about thanks to Amelia sharing that tidbit.
The new Interim Minister of Magic, William Silverthorne was a retired auror who'd left after the end of the war. From what Amelia and Sirius had shared he was a very by the book sort of guy which is what got him the job. Tiberius Ogden had accepted the position as Interim Chief Warlock for the Wizengamont. Sirius in celebration that the trials were over informed them he'd purchased a box for the Quidditch World Cup and Harry had written to the Weasleys inviting them to join them.
One of the few things he'd left the Retreat for had seen him back at Hogwarts opening the Chamber of Secrets so the basilisk could be rendered. Rather than go to the goblins for the job Remus had gone to a company that specialized in such things, the price of which was apparently much cheaper than Gringotts was offering. Hermione had of course gone with him and aside from now Headmistress McGonagall, Sirius, Remus, Amelia, a small group of aurors and a freelance reporter and cameraman had gone down as well.
The sight of the dead basilisk or rather its size had stunned and horrified the group in equal measure. Hermione had tucked her head into him and held him in a vice grip. There had been a mention of exploring the place, but Harry had declined stating Remus and Sirius could handle that before turning and leaving the place with Hermione still clutching him followed closely by their old Head of House.
Instead of going back to her office they had instead been led to the kitchen where the house elves were only too happy to serve them. With the sight of the dead basilisk still fresh on their minds Hermione chose that moment to fill McGonagall in on all of the craziness that had been their first three years at Hogwarts leaving nothing out. Having the full story told to her from their perspective with all of the horrors they'd faced cracked the stoic mask of their professor who'd broken and pulled first Hermione and then Harry into fierce hugs.
She then went on to apologize profusely for not listening to them when they came to her in their first year and swore she would be doing her absolute best to make sure the craziness was over. She also apologized to Harry stating she saw too much of his father in him and that 'Jaimie' had been a troublemaker since he'd first started crawling. Apparently the woman had been very close with his grandparents Charlus and Dorea since their own school days and invited him to seek her out whenever he wanted to learn more about his parents or grandparents.
At the moment none of that actually mattered to Harry, in fact it wasn't even on his mind. He was currently sitting nervously on his bed waiting for Hermione to come out of the bathroom. Unlike every other day she was here they had the place completely to themselves and had decided to take advantage of it. When she arrived today they hung out for a bit but it was awkward, more awkward than when they first started kissing after he told everyone about the future. Over the last few weeks that had gotten less awkward and more fun and Harry didn't think he could ever lie and say he saw her like a sister again.
Hermione meanwhile also fidgeted nervously as she stood in front of the mirror in Harry's private bathroom. She loved everything about the Retreat but the bathrooms, especially Harry's master bathroom covered in book matched marble with crystal lighting and handles for the sink, shower and bathtub were among her favorite places.
In truth it had taken a lot of courage on her part just to come this far today but she had summoned her inner Gryffindor and taken the portkey Harry had given her. It had been a few weeks since the meeting and combined with the rest of the time that passed she could honestly say that the last two months had been some she could have never predicted and had flipped her worldview.
It started with Harry being Kissed by a Dementor and miraculously surviving, something she knew better of now. After that he'd been taken to St. Mungo's, and she'd thought things would go back to normal. Then the ICW had come and had seemingly taken over Magical Britain, which she now knew was at Harry's request! Soon following that was the Trial of Sirius Black in which the world learned he was innocent, and Peter Pettigrew was the actual traitor. Then while she was on vacation in France with her parents the ICW raids happened and many people who she now knew to be Death Eaters had been arrested, though unfortunately some had managed to flee and avoid being caught thus far.
She had thought that would be the end of it but then had come the Legacy Preservation Act. The Act was something that had first been presented to the ICW over 70 years ago and the Supreme Mugwump of the time and later Dumbledore had been huge factors in blocking. Her own research combined with what Remus and Amelia had been able to dig up showed that the initial pitch had been made upon the discovery of how low the wizarding population had been and what projections showed the population should be yet had been trending downwards.
Squib birth rates had been rising and power levels amongst wizards and witches had been dropping. She thought that was a consequence of inbreeding and had been thoroughly corrected by Andromeda. Regardless the Accords were a measure to correct the issue and prevent what they saw as the slow decline and eventual downfall of the wizarding world. What the initial pitch called for had basically been Free Use sex between wizards and witches with the goal of birthing more children.
She imagined had it passed initially the wizarding world would have degenerated into carnal territories where lust ran rampant. It had taken two decades before the initial proposal was reworked enough where even Hermione had to begrudgingly admit it was functional. The free use part was still there but it was now controlled as it revolved around magical power. Witches and wizards were tested for their personal power levels and were assigned a level/class based on that score.
Level 0, which was a score of 100 or less was for muggles, since apparently their bodies had magic, just not enough to do anything with. Level 1 with scores from 101-200 were squibs, Level 2 scores of 201-300 were low level magicals, Level 3 was Average with scores of 301-400, Level 4 with a score of 401-500 were above average magicals classed as Sorcerer/Sorceress, Level 5 with scores of 501-600 was classified as Enchanter/Enchantress. The final level was level six with scores of 601 and above which were classified as Mages, a category most magicals these days rarely scored into, especially in the U.K.
Once a person's magical power level or MPI score (Magical Power Index) was known they were given a magical item that would pretty much put a barrier around them that would keep people of a lower level from initiating contact with them. However someone on a higher level could initiate contact with someone on a lower level anytime they pleased. As a consequence of this betrothal contracts were dissolved and even marriages if there was no magical bond established.
The goal was to have magically compatible people bond as such unions had been proven to have powerful children. As a consequence from what had been later shared by Andromeda and Amelia many witches and wizards trapped in contracted marriages had been quite happy to be free of them, and many wives of imprisoned Death Eaters had been quite vocal of their elation.
This version had also failed to be passed, at least by the ICW, nothing however stopped member nations from implementing the act on their own. To date most of the magical Asian, African and many European territories had adopted it. With Dumbledore dying the night they freed Sirius it left the ICW to both elect a new Supreme Mugwump and act as they pleased without his interference.
The ICW had passed the act while she was in France which meant it now applied to all magical territories and was now called the Legacy Preservation Accords. As an upcoming fourth year she would fall under the guidelines of the Accords, though she'd have qualified last year due to her age if it had been in effect at that time.
Hogwarts had acted quickly in sending letters out with the guidelines of how the students who qualified would need to conduct themselves going forward. Hogwarts was first and foremost a school and while they would have to deal with this new situation they had rules for that as well. There would be nothing untoward during classes or out in the halls where just anyone could see nor in the common rooms where the younger students would be exposed, she noticed there was nothing in there about stopping people.
Intellectually Hermione wasn't a complete stranger to sex. Her mother had actually sat her down during the summer before her previous year so they could talk about it. Still she was a virgin and before this summer had never even kissed a boy and the knowledge that she was now supposed to just let anyone with the right power level have a go at her didn't fill her with anything more than fright. Unfortunately she had no choice but to comply, the ICW representative that had come to her house had explained that due to her MPI score of 435 she was simply too powerful to let slip through the cracks.
They informed her that while she was a low-level sorceress she could be an Enchantress or even a Mage by the time she graduated. While they wouldn't force her to participate they explained that it was in her best interest to do so. While they wouldn't imprison her or anything of that nature she would most definitely find life incredibly difficult later on. Non-participation would go in her file telling everyone that she didn't actually care about the health and growth of the Wizarding World and she would find attaining any decent employment very hard even if she scored in the top 10% in her O.W.L.S and N.E.W.T.S. While she could return to the muggle world full time her entire family would be obliviated even if she waited until after she graduated and whatever grades she attained wouldn't be supported by the ICW, it would be as if she fell into a coma as a child.
When put into those terms she realized that the choice wasn't much of one at all and 'elected' to participate. Luckily her father had been away at the time and she and her mother had both agreed he was never to know those types of details about the magical world. After that her mother had taken her shopping and gotten her a bunch of stuff that Hermione had never imagined owning let alone using before and gotten a crash course on things she'd never even entertained before.
Then as if things hadn't been crazy enough Harry had called that meeting and she learned about the future he'd come from. Suddenly everything else had seemed small in comparison to what they learned and all of her worries about sex seemed to vanish. Since then she'd come over to Harry's every day, which consequently meant she wasn't stuck in an empty house while her parents were at work. Knowing what her future held, being subjected to a love potion keyed to Ron, had once combined with the knowledge of the Accords been the catalyst she needed to cross the boundary with Harry and kiss him. Now they kissed every day, multiple times and got bolder with their actions as they grew more comfortable with each other.
Today she determined would be different. It was now July 30th, meaning it was Neville's birthday and the day before Harry's. They had been invited to attend Neville's party today, and tomorrow Harry would be having his, then the Accords would officially go into effect which is why she was currently standing in Harry's bathroom. Shaking her head to dispel both her thoughts and nervousness she took a deep breath to summon her Gryffindor courage, released the air from her mouth and let her skirt drop to the floor.
Before she could lose her nerve she unbuttoned her shirt and dropped it leaving her only in a Gryffindor red bra and a thong, which only differed from the bikini's Harry saw her in because her ass was showing. Finally she reached into her purse and pulled out a necklace, actually it was a choker made of black velvet in the center of which was a shield crest with a black 4 on a red background bordered in gold which said Gryffindor over the top. The back of it showed a small length gold chain and clasp.
The choker wasn't just for decoration, it was the magical item given to her for the Accords, sent with her Hogwarts book list. As such not only did it display her power level but also had all of the charms needed for it to stop someone on a lower level from interacting with her without her going along with it. Unfortunately unless she bonded to a wizard anyone on her level or above would be free to use her body at will as just by wearing the choker she'd have given her consent.
Bonding with a wizard would cause the choker to change either into the wizards family crest or her own depending on both circumstance and magic. Bonding was usually seen as an instant magical marriage but considering most students weren't of age, for them it would be an automatic betrothal then upgrade to a marriage once both were of age.
It helped that she was already used to wearing a choker, the girls were all given them as first years. They were told chokers can hold things such as magical gemstones which would allow them to work different kinds of magic or boost the power of their spells. She'd questioned why they didn't wear rings and was told it would be impractical due to the size of the gems which would in turn cause the rings to melt. That was why even married witches didn't wear rings and why the choker had been chosen long ago before even the age of the Founders.
After securing the choker in place she took another deep breath and released it before tapping the choker with her wand activating it. She only found out recently thanks to Harry that the boys were given signet rings. They were actually rather simple gold rings that showed a wizards level on it, Harry's had merged with the other two he already wore and as such he could switch between all three rings showing whichever one he felt at a given time. Considering wizards don't place gemstones in their rings there was no risk of them overheating and thus melting.
Looking in the mirror she realized that she couldn't back out now, but this was the price she had to pay to stay with Harry and by this point she knew she'd do anything for him, as evidenced by future her obliviating her parents and sending them to Australia. Another deep breath and release and she gave the girl in the mirror a nod before turned away and opened the door to Harry's room proper finding Harry sitting on the bed facing the bathroom and subsequently her wearing only his boxers.
He was fidgeting and clearly nervous yet when he spotted her he froze, and his eyes went wide. She felt herself freeze and would be surprised to learn her eyes were just as wide as his, they'd seen each other in swimwear but somehow both of them knew this was different.
As she approached him and he stood up her arms reflexively moved to cover herself just like the first time he'd seen her in a bikini. For several long moments they stood still awkwardly looking at each other before Harry snapped out of it which made sense as outside of the classroom he was always the one that took charge.
"Are you sure you want to do this? We can wait." Said Harry, at this Hermione paused and after staring into his eyes and seeing the sincerity took another breath and moved her arms.
"I'm fine, I can do this. I want to do this." Said Hermione
"Remember let your magic flow, embrace it, don't try to control it." Said Harry.
She had done as much research as she could on the Mate Bond which had become incredibly rare in Magical UK in fact there were less than 15 bonded couples in the territory and the only people she knew that it included were Andi and Ted Tonks . She read all the papers Remus was able to collect for it but none of them explained how to establish the bond. Hermione had just mentioned one time that she was always relaxed around Harry, then he'd hugged her and she'd almost had an orgasm.
Once pressed he explained that he'd actually loosened the hold on his magic which she'd wanted to strangle somebody for not including that in the reading as it was so damned simple. Considering the first lessons they'd gotten had been on how consciously tap into, control and limit the output of their magical cores it was no wonder the Bond was so rare now as the limiter made it so the magic didn't flare out with emotions thus stopping accidental magic.
Of course they didn't have any proof of the theory, but Harry was positive it would work. Hermione actually believed him because he had an instinctive grasp and understanding of his magic that contrasted sharply with and allowed him to keep up with her own knowledge-based approach to magic.
Her thoughts were immediately broken when Harry closed the distance and hugged her and feeling his magic she responded almost immediately releasing the limiters she'd placed on her magic and allowing it to surge through her. Though there was nothing crazy like a whirlwind of power visually surrounding them both of them could feel the magic surrounding them. When they kissed they lost themselves not to the power but in each other. By the time Hermione came back to awareness it was to find that they were now on the bed with Harry on top of her.
Having broken the kiss Harry began kissing along her neck causing her to moan, which only increased as he palmed both of her breasts. He lingered only for a few moments before moving on kissing across her chest and he released the clasp from the front of her bra, pulling it away and exposing her breasts. As he pulled back to look at her instead of covering up she sat up, slipped her arms out and tossed the bra to the floor, Harry meanwhile was mesmerized, this wasn't the first time he'd seen Hermione's boobs even in this life. But they'd been a bit smaller the last time he'd seen them, which had only been because her top had come loose in the pool.
"They're C-cups now." Said Hermione blushing.
"They're beautiful, your beautiful." Said Harry
Before she could comment her eyes widened seeing his head dip down as he kissed first her left then right breast. Then he slipped a nipple into his mouth, and she threw her head back with a moan. He spent several minutes worshipping her breast with his mouth and the hand closest to the unoccupied one. Hermione wasn't idle though as her hand had slipped down his body and she was currently stroking his cock through his underwear. Despite all of her research on the subject of sex over the last year this was the first actual cock she was touching, even over underwear. It was big, much bigger than she was expecting if she was honest as her mental calculations but it at about six or seven inches and was thick enough that three of her fingers could rest on top of it.
As he pulled back from her breasts she surged forward capturing his lips in another kiss and pressing her breasts into his chest. Even as they kissed her hands went to the waistband as she pulled his boxers down exposing his cock to the open air and more importantly her hands. As they broke the kiss she pushed him so that he was on his back and removed his boxers from his legs. Slowly she ascended kissing along his legs even as she grasped hold of him and began stroking him fully.
"I've waited an entire year for this." Said Hermione softly surprising Harry.
Before he could comment on that his eyes widened as she kissed the tip and then down the side. Rather than coming right back up after reaching the end of his shaft she went further down kissing his balls before coming back up the other side. As she came up to the tip again she gave it another kiss before slipping the tip in her mouth and licking it. When she pulled back and looked up she blushed seeing his wide eyes before turning her attention back to his cock and taking it back in her mouth and descending. She took the entire head in her mouth before pulling back and immediately going back down.
'Merlin, Hermione's sucking my cock.' Thought Harry throwing his head back.
Unlike the girls he'd heard some of his dormmates talk about during his later Hogwarts years Hermione wasn't just doing the head or doing it shallowly, instead each time she descended she took more of him into her mouth. When she was half-way down she choked but instead of pulling off completely she went right back down and choked again and again and again. He had half a mind to stop her but he could tell she wouldn't appreciate that and instead gathered her hair in his right hand and when she descended the next time pushed her further down.
"Take it Hermione, I'm not going to let you go until you take all of it. Knowing you you've been practicing so you could take it all the first time you did this. Then once you touch the base it's going right inside that tight little pussy of yours."
He didn't know where the words came from, but they worked and she took another two inches even as she gagged. When she came back up he used her hair to pull her until only the tip was in before giving her a slight push and her head back down. Seeing where she stopped he decided to help her out and when she descended again and got near where she stopped he thrust forward burying himself all the way in her mouth and while not all the way down her throat he was a good bit inside of it. When she pulled back he let her pull all the way off and could see that gleam of accomplishment in her eyes.
"How have you been practicing this and for how long?" questioned Harry.
"Banana's and cucumbers. My mom bought me a dildo after we found out about the accords." Said the girl once she got her breath back.
"Anything else you want to tell me?"
"She also got me an anal plug and beads I've been practicing with. I hope you learned that spell we talked about so you can fuck my ass too." Said the girl.
"Didn't think you'd be into that."
"I want you to have all of my firsts."
While he appreciated that, something inside him twisted the words. Hermione was his best friend; she was more than that! While he knew a lot of girls were going to end up being used by a lot of different people that wasn't happening to Hermione. He had no intention of anyone else touching her! With that in mind he switched their positions, so she was once more on her back and grabbed the waistband of her panties before pulling them down and off of her. With her panties removed he could see she had a small amount of brown hair and small pink lips. Grabbing hold of his cock which was still covered in her saliva he brought it down right on top of her pussy causing her to gasp. Pulling back he was just about to position himself when Hermione grabbed his cock and placed it right at her entrance.
Without the slightest bit of hesitation he pushed the inside of her going to the hilt in one motion. Hermione gasped as her eyes widened as she was suddenly completely full yet none of the pain she was expecting had come. Instead she felt an abundance of other things including the safety and security she had come to associate as being around Harry but she now recognized as his magic.
"I'm okay. You can move." Spoke the girl after coming back down to reality.
"You sure?"
"Fuck me Harry."
With that Harry pulled out until just the tip was left before slamming back inside her causing her to moan loudly. Not stopping he pulled out again this time only halfway before going back in and repeating. Grabbing hold of her waist he pulled back so that he was on his knees with her still connected before he began going in and out of her at a steady pace. Watching her tits bounce as he fucked her caused Harry to pick up the pace increasing her moans until she came with a scream.
As she came back from the clouds Hermione realized she was lying on top of Harry, he was stroking her hair even though his cock was still hard inside of her. Pushing herself up and remembering some of her 'research' she began slowly rocking back and forth in his lap. Planting her hands on his chest she raised her hips removing just a few inches before dropping back down. Finding a rhythm she was soon riding his cock in earnest before grabbing his hands and holding them to her breasts. Pitching forward she found his lips and initiated another kiss still moving her hips while Harry's hands fell away from her breasts and grabbed hold of her ass.
After only a few minutes of this Harry planted his feet on the bed and began thrusting upwards every time she came down. Finally she came down and Harry came with roar holding her down as his seed filled her up triggering another orgasm for her. As if that was a signal their magic flared and they were surrounded by a golden aura for nearly thirty seconds before the aura faded and they both collapsed panting heavily.
"That was amazing." Said Hermione.
Harry said nothing simply kissing her on the forehead not even bothered by the sweat covering her. After catching her breath Hermione climbed off of him before taking him back into her mouth. She didn't stop with just cleaning him off and instead sucked him until he was hard again. Pulling off with a pop and sitting up it was only then that Harry stopped her much to her confusion.
"Your collar changed."
As his words registered her eyes widened and she scrambled to turn to the mirror on top of the dresser to the right of the bed. The collar had indeed changed, instead of showing her house and power level it now showed the crest of the House of Potter causing her to squeal in excitement and launch herself at him in a hug.
"I can't believe we bonded on the first try!" exclaimed Hermione pulling back with a huge smile on her face.
"You doubted it?" questioned Harry.
"No, I just thought it would take more than one go but considering it's you I shouldn't be surprised." Said Hermione, smiling sultrily she turned away from him before bending over so her head was on the bed and her ass was in the air before reaching behind her and spreading her cheeks.
"Come on, you've still got one hole to claim."
Scrambling at that Harry reached over to grab his wand from the bedside table and after going through the motions of the spell Hermione asked him to learn placed the tip of his wand to her puckered hole. Hermione shivered at the feeling of her insides being cleaned out then sighed when it stopped and the fluid that filled her disappeared. Placing his wand back on the table Harry grabbed hold of his shaft and after stroking himself a few times placed the head at her second entrance.
"Go slow, you're a bit bigger than what I practiced with."
Getting in was actually easier than Harry was expecting thanks to the spell which not only cleaned her but lubed her up. As such the head popped in with very little force and slowly he fed even more of himself into her until he bottomed out. Hermione groaned but didn't try to pull away which was a good thing as she was incredibly tight, and he'd have probably lost control and cum if she moved. Pulling out just a bit he pushed back in causing her to groan again.
Repeating the action he pulled out just a bit more then fed it back to her before pulling out about halfway and going back in. Soon he established a rhythm pulling out just over half of his length each time and pushing back slowly picking up speed. At the same time her groans turned into moans as her insides loosened up allowing him push harder and before long he was fucking her hard to the point that she grabbed a pillow to muffle her moans. Pulling his right hand off of her waist he reached back before bringing it down sharply across her right ass check causing her to squeal.
"No hiding! This is what you wanted! You're the one who volunteered their ass with no prompting! You don't get to hide what it does to you."
Her moans were soon ringing throughout the room as she removed the pillow from her face. Working solely on instinct Harry kept spanking her switching cheeks until he landed twenty and her ass was a light red. Finally she screamed as her orgasm hit, her ass tightening up causing Harry to follow right after her holding her still as he filled her up before they both collapsed to the bed.
Sirius Black hated being in Grimmauld Place and truthfully had no intention of ever stepping foot inside of it again. Unfortunately today he'd had no choice as he'd had to secure the locket horcrux which he'd placed in led box and stashed into the office safe. He had half a mind to put Kreature down but considering the devotion he'd shown his little brother decided not to do so. Instead he ordered the little beast to get the house in order as its current state was unbecoming of a Black property.
At the moment he was sitting in the office meeting with his cousin Narcissa who had at least been smart enough to come to him before filing for divorce with the Ministry. Thus far they had covered just about every point and were nearing the end of the meeting.
"Your son's attitude leaves a lot to be desired. I watched him while I was hiding at Hogwarts, and he shows nothing that indicate he was raised to our standards. Considering House Black holds the primacy in your marriage as the senior house this is a failure on your part.
That said I will acknowledge once more that you did what you could in this situation and will accept him into the House of Black with the provision that he will be expelled from the House should he not shape up. Not only will he need to raise his grades to our standards, but I expect him to comport himself in a manner befitting a Black."
"Of course my lord." Said Narcissa bowing her head.
"Due to your husbands stupidity the vast majority of the Malfoy fortune has been seized. Because of this several Malfoy properties and businesses will be sold or taken over by House Black until the value is enough to make up for the penalties owed due to lack of contract. Anything else will be held in trust until your son comes of age. One of the properties being sold will be Malfoy Manor, as that would put you out of a home you and your son will be allowed to live here." Said Sirius getting another bow of the head.
"Now as to what to do with you dear cousin." At this her head snapped up with a look of hope in her eyes.
"If I remember correctly I was initially going to keep you as my mistress."
Narcissa gulped, during school Sirius had put together his own little harem consisting of herself, Marlene McKinnon, and Cecile Primrose. Marlene had unfortunately been killed with Death Eaters attacked the McKinnon Estate and Cecile left with her parents after graduation.
"Unfortunately you've developed an attitude that I find most unbecoming. As such I think you'll need to be punished and the ICW has provided a way that I don't even have to do anything. Instead when the Accords go into effect you are going to go along with it. You are going to let yourself be used by whoever wants you regardless of their power level or blood status."
"I'm not fucking the werewolf." Said Narcissa.
"You would if I told you to. Luckily for you Remus doesn't qualify because of his affliction, I hear the ICW is close to a cure though, so we'll see what happens later." Said Sirius.
"How long?"
"How does three months sound. Now if that's everything take those robes off." Said Sirius
Narcissa stood and silently removed her robes and at his look removed her underwear leaving her standing naked in the office. Wordlessly she walked around the desk and kneeled before fishing his cock out and kissing it.
"Let's see if you still remember how to do this."
With his words she kissed her way down to his balls and took them in her mouth.
It was Dora who found them, they'd fallen asleep on a lounge chair by the big pool. They'd exhausted themselves quite honestly they'd had sex on the terrace overlooking the long pool, then in the shower, then they'd gone down to the pool to cool off only to have sex in the pool and on the lounge chair. Their swimsuits were still in the pool, so they were completely naked when they woke up much to Dora's amusement. Dora had, however, congratulated her when she saw the change in her choker.
She also did them a favor and summoned their swimsuits from the water before they retreated back to Harry's suite. This time they took separate showers and spent the rest of the time dressed and hanging out with Dora. They watched a movie in the main sitting room before it was time to leave. Dora apparated them to Diagon Alley and from there they went to Toms to Floo to Longbottom Hall.
Arriving they found they were among the first few to arrive. Also present was Hannah Abbott whose choker now sported the Longbottom crest. Harry congratulated his godbrother who in turn thanked him for convincing him to invite Hannah over knowing how badly he was crushing on her. The Abbots were an old family and Hannah was only barely considered a pure blood as she was three generations away from her last muggleborn ancestor.
It was Hermione who asked if Neville was going to try bonding with more witches or if it would just be him and Hannah. Neville as it turns out was fairly powerful with a score of 478 and Hannah was at 415. Powerful wizards were actually encouraged to try bonding with multiple witches, there was even a financial incentive to do so. She already knew Harry would be doing so, it had been discussed during the larger group meetings considering his rather ridiculous MPI score.
As Hannah would one day become Lady Longbottom she stated it was something the two of them would have to discuss as she wasn't fully against the idea of sharing. Hermione before the recent changes brought on by the LPA had never even considered it, but she was a muggleborn whereas Hannah was from an old magical family, so she was raised to think in terms of family legacy.
Before long more guests started to arrive, their dormmates Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnegan were the first soon followed by Susan Bones, Lavender Brown, while the Greengrass sisters and Tracy Davis arrived together. Neville it turns out had grown up alongside Hannah, Susan, Tracy and the Greengrass sisters as their families were long-time political allies.
The alliance had fallen apart after the war but the children had still been allowed to grow up amongst each other. Harry should have grown up as a part of the group and would have if not for Dumbledore's interference and wondered openly if they should reconvene the alliance.
"It's not that easy. The alliance fell apart because there is no active Lord Longbottom or Lord Potter to lead it. As much as I hate to say it my parents are never getting out of St. Mungo's and you wont be of age to inherit for another three years." Said Neville.
"True but what's stopping us from ending the Potter-Longbottom Alliance and starting a new one. We can use the same basis as the old one but have more founding member houses and probably keep something like this from happening again." Said Harry
"I thought you had no interest in politics." Said Neville
"I don't, hell I don't think I'll ever sit the Potter seat in the Wizengamont. I'll be the head of more than one house but I don't see a problem with letting the Ladies of those houses handle the Wizengamont responsibilities if they'd like to." Said Harry surprising the group.
"Harry no woman has ever sat in the Wizengamont in their own right nor for their husband, only as Regents. It's why my grandmother couldn't even be placed in the election for Chief Warlock." Said Neville.
"This is a time of change though. The Ministry and the Wizengamont had to be restructured majorly. Who says that if we work at it Daphne can't be the first Chief Witch of the Wizengamont and Hermione couldn't be the first muggleborn Minister of Magic."
Daphne did her best not to squirm in her seat at that, just the prospect of holding such an illustrious position dampened her panties. Looking around she found she wasn't the only one effected, Hermione had flushed as had several other witches.
"What about you, what would you do?" questioned Dean
"Honestly I'm not sure. I don't really want to be an auror, it's just what's expected of me. Maybe I'll follow Neville's lead and become a teacher." Said Harry shrugging.
"You want to be a teacher?" questioned Hermione clearly interested.
"A Herbologist, Professor Sprout says I could probably take her place when she retires though." Said Neville
"That could work." Said Daphne quietly.
"With Neville and Potter, sorry Harry at Hogwarts and Gr-Hermione, Susan and I at the Ministry we could probably do whatever we wanted." Said the girl.
"It's a nice dream but it all depends on who Daphne and I bond with. If we end up bonded with someone with completely opposite politics the idea's dead in the water and if we take too long to bond our reputations could be ruined." Said Susan
"What if I bonded both of you?" questioned Harry surprising the group.
"Excuse me?" questioned Susan.
"In the interest of transparency I was already planning on bonding both of you, if Neville didn't bond to you first. My idea was that Daphne would become Lady Black and you could be Lady Bones in your own right." Said Harry.
"That's more wishful thinking, who says we'd actually accomplish the bond." Said Daphne shaking her head.
"I do. Harry and I bonded on the first try. We've got a pretty good theory on how the bond is established. If he thinks he can bond the both of you I'm inclined to believe him." Said Hermione.
Several eyes around them were wide as not only had Harry rather blatantly and publicly stated he intended to have sex with both of them, but Hermione was actually backing him up in terms of the bond taking hold. Hermione's intellect was never in question and in fact was often underestimated so her backing of the claim spoke volumes.
Any further discussion on the topic was put on hold as more guest began to arrive beginning with the Weasleys and the place began to fill up. The rest of the party was rather enjoyable with plenty of laughing and dancing to be had. Harry danced with all of the girls that had been part of the conversation as well as Ginny, Katie Bell, Alicia Spinnet and Angelina Johnson. Harry and Neville had soon been proven to not be the only ones to form the bond as Alicia and Angelina were bonded with Fred and George Weasley respectively. The party had become a mix of students from all of the houses which Neville had apparently expected as he'd experienced this many times before.
Ron had been a bit put out that Harry and Hermione bonded and hadn't told him but relaxed when he was told it only happened that day, whereas the twins had bonded their girls nearly three weeks by that point. Apparently after the reaming they'd gotten from Harry then their parents, Bill and Charlie the twins had left to visit the girls who were already together and had a serious talk with them with the rest following from there. All in all Neville's birthday party was considered a success and apparently one of the social events of the year.
On his own birthday which was the next day Harry woke up with Hermione in his bed. The news that they bonded meant no one batted an eye when she'd followed him up to the room the previous night. They didn't have sex that night but nothing stopped them that morning. Hermione sucked him until he came in her mouth then rode him to an orgasm of her own. They took their shower together taking care to clean each other thoroughly though they managed to refrain from having sex.
Breakfast was had in the chef's kitchen wing and thankfully they'd gotten fully dressed as Hermione's parents were there much to their shock. Seeing Hermione's choker her mother squealed and hugged her before congratulating both of them. Her father wasn't nearly as excited but did admit he was glad it happened and with Harry before stating he had no desire to discuss such things further. The one thing they did discuss was that Hermione would continue living with her parents and would be free to visit whenever she liked.
Harry's party was a lot smaller than Neville's had been as only a few people had been invited. Those people included the Weasley's, Longbottoms, the Greengrass family, his Gryffindor year mates, Katie Bell, Oliver Wood, Alicia and Angelina to finish his teammates. Tracy, Susan, Hannah and Luna Lovegood had also been invited to finish the group. They spent the day enjoying the weather in the pool in the long pool area, though they had all gotten a tour of the place.
After touring the house Astoria had quietly asked if he would bond with her too when she became a fourth year. Considering she was only going into her second year he'd told her to ask her sister after he bonded with Daphne. The parents who toured the place were also impressed and the wives were making plans to remodel their own homes. They had also been incredibly surprised upon learning his father had the place built for his mother as a wedding gift.
When asked if he would be connecting the floo he'd informed them that he wouldn't and why as well as why the portkeys they received were only one time use and would be useless once they took them back home. The only one aside from him with a permanent portkey was still Hermione as everyone else who lived there could apparate. The purebloods were rather blown away and Hermione's mother Miriam explained that this was a rather luxurious estate though she wasn't actually into design. At different times that day both Daphne and Susan arranged times so that he could visit and attempt to bond with them the next day which would be the day the LPA went active officially.
Unknown to Harry at the time the next edition of the Quibbler would cover not only his small birthday party but a tour of the house and would go on to smash the sales records of even the Daily Prophets top selling issues
