Harry Potter: Blood of the Dragon

Chapter 465 – 465. 2nd Honeymoon

It was Christmas of 1983, not only that but it was also the 10th birthday of Maximus, Aurelia and Clementia. Seeing them, Magnus always felt that they grew up too fast, now just being 2 more years away from becoming a teenager and starting to rebel.

"Aurelia, here's your gift." Magnus handed each of them their presents. They had no patience and quickly got to open them.

Aurelia was in awe at the thing in her hand, "BIG BROTHER, I LOVE YOU! This is exactly what I wanted for myself."

She was in joy after getting her violin. She had already mastered the piano and wanted a new instrument, so he bought her a top-quality violin, it was better if none asked for a price.

In fact, he had bought musical instruments for all three, "Maximus, I hope you use that electric guitar and play great music, you love listening to rock bands, and Clementia, the Acoustic Guitar is well suited for you. You can make gentle soothing melodies from it. You three can even take them to Hogwarts."

They loved it. It was like a new hobby in their boring days. This would at least ensure that they don't get into any bad habits. Magnus felt this was the best way to keep your children away from the bad side of the world. He believed that those parents who force their kids to just study all day do more damage than harm.

Rather, they should only make them study for a few hours, then let them swim, play a sport or learn a new instrument. Kids don't have the drive to stay focused on one thing all the time, hence it was best to divide their attention into various activities so they focus 100% on everything they do.

After that, the cake cutting ceremony was here. As always, the whole extended family was there, even Elizabeth and her kids.

A giant cake was made for the three. They were handed plastic knives that were not sharp. They surrounded the cake and stood in their designated places. There were ten candles for each.

"Okay, blow them," Ragnar said. He had gifted the three concentration potions to help them learn whatever they wanted.

*FUUUU…* They blew and cutely extinguished the candles. The hall ushered in claps as the three started to give cake to their loved ones.

The thing with the kids was that they were brutally honest. They loved Grace and Adam the most, of course, so they got the cake first. Then it was Magnus and Ragnar, after that came Emma. Queen Elizabeth also got one as she was their Granny Immortal. At last, Severus also got some because he was a regular at the house.

With Severus came his mother and Narcissa as well, little Draco was there too and he had gained the attention of the three. They were constantly eying the little kid.

Magnus was meanwhile taken to the side secretly, "Okay, I got a potion ready, but it may take you a few tries to actually work."

As soon as Magnus heard this, his face turned to stone in shock, "Is this what I think this is?"

"Hehe, of course, I call myself the greatest potioneer to ever live on this planet. If even I can't do this then I should drown myself in shame. Drink it up if you don't want to tell Emma yet." Ragnar said.

Magnus hugged him first, "Thanks, brother. This means a lot to me."

"I know, and it means a lot to all of us. I want a cute little niece and nephew dammit. Who else will I tell all the fun stories to? Telling how dumb their dad used to be in school." Ragnar teased.

Magnus chuckled, "Honestly if this works, I have no problem with that." Then in a single motion, he gulped the whole vial. He made faces, "Ugh, this tastes so bad,"

"It's a medicine, the most advanced in the world, you expect it to taste like strawberries… by strawberries I remember, I gotta eat some more cake." Ragnar went away to get some cake and also mess with Severus.

Magnus, standing alone, glanced at Emma. She looked amazing in her casual jeans and white shirt. ~I guess, it's time for a second honeymoon.~

…

"Dear, Charles has something to talk to you about," Elizabeth walked to him with a look of seriousness. Her son was behind, standing stiffly.

"Sure, what is it? Did he do something again?" he asked.

Elizabeth didn't speak, she let Charles come forward and request, "Um… Magn… your majesty, I wanted your permission to marry Diana Frances Spencer, she is now 22 years old, so age should not be a problem now."

"Sure, if you have stayed loyal to her till now then I have no problem. Also, I'm sure the world won't have a problem with her age but instead yours, you are 35, man. But, if this is your wish, then do marry her. Keep one thing in mind, marriage is not a joke, if you are going to do it then be good at it.

"If I hear of any scandals coming out of your marriage, I will not waste a minute kicking you out of the royal family. The same goes for Diana. In fact, I'd like to speak to her before anything happens, so do come by my office tomorrow morning with her." He sternly advised him, his voice contained an ample amount of magic to make sure that Charles felt threatened.

Elizabeth sighed, "Yes, that would be great, you should meet the girl first. I honestly don't feel comfortable with her, she's too open and wild, I don't think she will adhere to the life of a royal."

"Even I don't adhere to it, I love to show affection to my wife everywhere, but I make sure nobody sees or it doesn't cause a scandal. I don't go around in public and do stupid things. I am perfectly fine with her having a wild personality, but wild should not mean brainless stupidity. I will evaluate her tomorrow." Magnus left the mother and son to talk with each other.

…

Severus helped Narcissa get introduced to people around. She had never met most of them. However, the one she got the most frank with was Magnus' mother, Grace. Maybe it was just because both of them were blonde beauties.

"C-can we hold the baby?" Aurelia asked, behind her stood Maximus and Clementia, nodding heads.

Narcissa glanced at Draco in her arms, the boy was awake and looking around. "It's okay, they won't harm him," Grace assured her.

She nodded and knelt down, "Okay, hold him correctly. Yes, like this."

Aurelia was chirping in happiness, "He's so small and so cute."

Maximus poked his cheek. Clementia touched his hair. "Silky,"

But then Aurelia innocently said something that made Narcissa awkward, "Uncle Sev has such a cute baby."

"Oh-oh, look, he's yawning. Hehe, he's looking at me." Maximus jumped around like a monkey.

Clementia silently extended her arms, "I hold now,"

Aurelia was a good sister, "Hold him tight, here you go."

*MEWO*

At that, Chad came, he was interested in seeing the kid too, so he got picked up by Maximus. Draco noticed the feline, he tried to touch him, "Mow-mow"

But Maximus took Chad away, "No, you can't touch him. He has not bathed in 3 weeks. He stinks," He even drooped the boy.

Chad sadly walked to Grace and got picked by her, she too smelled him, "Yes, you need a good bath. I just bought a new shampoo for you that will make you smell like roses. Do you like roses? Narcissa, do you have any pets?"

"Narcissa?"

Grace saw she had become unresponsive, when looked, she found Narcissa silently looking at Severus in the distance. Grace silently chuckled, "*Cough* I heard Severus never had a girlfriend."

Narcissa turned her face back and blushed, "It's not like what you think."

"I know what I see, trust me. I will only say this, be truthful to yourself." Grace advised.

Narcissa shook her head, "No, I am wrong. Just because for the past whole year Miss Prince has been so kind to me, I can't push myself into their lives. Severus is a great talented man, his heart is so pure and his mind is so mature. If there was some other woman, he'd be kind to her too.

"Besides, a widow with a young son isn't really pleasing to date. He's young, he deserves to go out on fun dates, fool around and be happy."

Grace nearly laughed aloud, "I've known Severus since his first year in school and know when I say this, he's been a grown man since the first year. His mind thinks differently, his life was not really easy and happy before meeting Magnus. Circumstances made him grow up much earlier than others of his age."

"Still, my point stands, I am a widow with a history not pleasing to people. It was good to talk to you, Lady Grace. You are as kind as I read about in the papers. I must go and prepare Draco's food now so I shall take my leave." Narcissa took her son back.

Grace sighed and patted Narcissa's shining blonde hair. She was an absolute beauty, she had the charm of maturity too. Any man would go crazy for her, but here she was, doubting herself. It was clear that she had been mentally scarred and had lost self-esteem. "Dear, as I said before, be truthful to yourself. Sometimes in self-doubt, you wait so long that later all you are left with is regrets. Take care, keep coming here from time to time, it was nice to talk to you."

Narcissa nodded and left. She told Severus' mother about feeding Draco and soon apparated away from a private room. Seeing her gone, Emma walked to Grace, "What was all that about, mum?"

Grace quickly caught Emma's arm and walked with her, "Nothing, my beautiful girl. She's just confused and scared. But don't worry, she has good people around. What about you? Is everything going well with you and Magnus?"

Out of nowhere, Magnus appeared and spoke to Emma, "My love, tickets are booked, we're going to Kyoto for our second honeymoon tomorrow."

This left Emma redfaced but Grace laughed loudly, "It seems things are going too well."

She caught Magnus and pulled him to peck on his forehead, "I'm so happy you have not changed too much, sweetie. I should go and find your father now, it's time he learns how to treat his wife by his son."

Magnus chuckled, "Dad's bad luck starts today,"

"HEY! Control yourself in front of your mother," Emma punched his sides.

Magnus shamelessly gripped her waist and pulled her closer, "What's there to hide? They know we're married and I AM MADLY IN LOVE!"

He shamelessly kissed her in front of the whole family. As always the three gremlins started running around them and cheering. To them, it was like a real-life fairy tale playing.
