Chereads / A Familiar Bond / Chapter 4 - Revealed

Chapter 4 - Revealed

The soft rays of sunshine trickled through the curtains, bathing the blissfully sleeping couple in golden light. Harry's eyes twitched slightly and he burrowed his face into the ebony tresses of his wife, whom he was spooning from behind. His arms were wrapped around her slender frame, one hand resting on her stomach while the other cupped her supple breast.

Valerie sighed in contentment as she felt him pull her closer, and inadvertently, she wiggled her bum against his crotch, prompting a groan out of him. She chuckled before shaking her ass once again, and this time, Harry tightened his hold on her and gave her tit a soft squeeze.

"You're having so much fun right now, aren't you?" His husky voice sent a shiver down her spine, and she giggled.

"What can I say? You're too easy," she laughed when he tickled her sides. Harry didn't relent until he had turned her around and was hovering over her, their breaths quickened and faces close.

"I love you," he whispered, looking deeply into her eyes, and Valerie smiled.

"I love you too," she lifted her face upward, and Harry met her halfway until their lips met in a soft kiss. It didn't take long for them to intensify the kiss and in no time, Harry had lined up his already hard cock and slowly pushed inside her.

Valerie moaned softly when she felt him slowly enter her. She was still a little sore from their lovemaking the previous night, but despite that, she found that she felt utter bliss when he felt him once again.

With all the care and love he could muster, Harry slowly pushed forward and Valerie widened her legs until she felt him bury to the hilt inside her. A soft groan of pleasure left her lips when he pulled back slightly and pushed forward.

Harry grinned at her and started to slowly pick up his face, watching with pleasure and lust as her lovely tits rolled around her chest with every movement. A look of abject satisfaction adorned her pretty face as she gazed at him with her eyes full of love, her hand softly caressing his face as she cried out in jubilation when he gave a powerful thrust.

Their lovemaking continued for a long time, the bed creaking under their weight as Harry kept pistoning in and out of her at a rapid pace, fast enough to make it pleasurable but not furious enough to hurt her in any manner.

Slowly, he lowered his body on top of hers and mashed their bare chests together, and reveled in the feeling of her soft tits pressing up against him. Bringing his hand upward, he grabbed her left breast and gave a soft squeeze, smiling when she moaned erotically. His fingers twiddled with her hard nipple, playing with her breast before alternating between the two as his thrusts continued.

Valerie could only moan in ecstasy as her lover continued to shower her with all the love and affection he could muster, the feeling of his hands over her body seemingly washing away all the taint she had carried with her for over two decades now, and not for the first time, she thanked her lucky stars that she had stumbled upon him all those months ago in Hogsmeade.

With utmost adoration in her eyes, she looked up into the eyes of her lover and gave out another loud cry of pleasure when he thrust hard inside her, smiling at him with slightly teary eyes. Harry, perfectly understanding what she was feeling, leaned down and kissed her nose before locking their lips together in a tender kiss.

Valerie felt like she could melt right now; the kiss was full of endearment and a promise unspoken, and with every moment their lips moved in perfect sync with each other, she could feel it becoming more and more passionate. His hands moved all over her body, caressing, squeezing, and rubbing her curves as he enjoyed the pleasure of his wife's touch over and over again, continuously burying his raging erection inside her as the lewd sounds of their lovemaking echoed around the room.

Suddenly and without any warning, Valerie grabbed his shoulder and Harry stopped, looking at her in surprise. She grinned before slowly getting up and pushing him down and straddling him. Harry chuckled before grabbing her waist as she positioned his cock right against her pussy and slowly sank on his lap.

"Ohh yess…" she moaned as his cock filled her up to the brim and slowly started moving. Harry kept a firm hold on her lap to steady her and watched with fascination as she slowly picked up her pace, starting to bounce on his cock which had the added incentive of her breasts jiggling in tandem. Harry watched, enraptured, as his girl rocked and bounced on his cock, her bubbly ass clapping against his torso and he caressed her sides before cupping her round, bouncing jugs in both hands.

Valerie grinned before she started to furiously bounce, her wavy dark hair moving along with her before she threw her head back in a loud moan when Harry gave a powerful thrust inside her.

"Fuckkkk…" she cried out in jubilation as she felt him slam inside her mid-thrust and failed to keep herself upright. Her arms came up to support her at the last moment, her face hovering right over his as her hair created a dark curtain around them. Her lovely tits collided with his chest, and Harry gave no reprieve anymore.

Planting his legs on the bed, he bent his knees and with a wicked grin, he started to mercilessly thrust inside her. Valerie cried out in pleasure as Harry pounded her furiously, the sound of skin slapping against skin echoing around the room and she could barely keep herself upright.

Harry looked up to see her tits hanging right over his face, and he wasted no moment as his lips engulfed one of her hard nipples. His hands came up to grab hold of her firm globes as he continued to feast, his lower body moving continuously to pound his cock inside her at a rapid pace.

He could feel his orgasm approaching quickly, and he relinquished his hold on her soft tits and grabbed a firm hold of her ass cheeks. His fingers sank into the softness of her fleshy rear and he kept pounding her hard and fast, his orgasm imminent.

Valerie could barely hold on as she felt her orgasm course through her. A loud gasp left her lips and Harry felt her start to shake on top of him, prompting him to increase the ferociousness of his thrusts as he looked up.

Deep in the throes of ecstasy, Valerie pulled him into a searing kiss. With one final mighty thrust, Harry unloaded his seed inside her pussy, and Valerie moaned. Rope after rope of his virile, hot cum splattered her inner walls, just like it had the night before, and Valerie cried out in pleasure as she felt him fill her up once again.

With a sigh, she collapsed on top of him, her breasts mashed up against his hard chest, and Harry wrapped his arms around her slender frame. Her face buried itself in the crook of his neck where she dropped soft kisses and nuzzled, and Harry pulled her closer. Their breathing was ragged as they tried to ride down their orgasmic high, as his cock softened before slithering out of her thoroughly fucked pussy.

Valerie sighed when she felt his hot, sticky cum slide out of her pussy as she cuddled up with him, all thoughts of getting up seemingly postponed for a few hours at the very least.

It was almost noon when Harry and Valerie freshened up and made their way downstairs. However, to their surprise, Sirius was nowhere to be found.

"Where do you think he's gone?"

Valerie shrugged, before walking over to the kitchen and saw that food had been laid out with heating charms. A folded piece of parchment rested atop the tray, and she picked it up before unfolding it.

"He's out to meet someone. Doesn't say who. Says he'd be back in the evening and to be ready for a few guests," she placed the note down and brought the plates over to the dining table where Harry helped her put them before they took their seats.

"Alright then," Harry nodded as he picked up a garlic breadstick and took a bite.

"Mmm. This is good," he remarked, and Valerie chuckled.

"So, what'd you want to do today?" She asked in between bites.

Harry smirked.

"Well… I won't say no to a repeat of what we've been doing since last night," he wiggled his eyebrows and Valerie shoved him away with a laugh.

"Calm your horses, mister. I'm still pretty sore," her eyes twinkled in mirth, and Harry chuckled.

"Shame. I was already readying myself up for another round," he gave her a heated gaze that made her flush.

"Eat your food," she muttered, diverting her eyes and sipping her juice slowly.

Harry laughed as he continued to eat, occasionally looking at her and smiling. She deserved all the happiness he could give her, he thought fondly. Valerie looked at him and smiled.

Harry quickly finished his food and gulped down his juice in one go before waving his wand and banishing the plate and glass to the sink, where the enchanted utensils started cleaning up.

"Handy," he muttered, looking over.

"That's how it's normally done in a Wizarding household," she remarked.

"Really?" Harry muttered, looking at her, "Guess you learn something new every day," he shrugged as Valerie shook her head before she was finished with her meal as well. Banishing the utensils to the sink, she brushed the bits and crumbs off her top before standing up.

"So? You decided what you wanna do today?" She asked.

Harry nodded.

"Come on," he held his hand out. Valerie grabbed on and followed behind him. She saw him walk down the corridor and quickly realized where they were going.

"The library?"

Harry nodded.

"The library of the Blacks. Probably one of the biggest family libraries in Britain. I'd be a fool not to go through this. Imagine the help we'd have if we master even a fraction of the knowledge this place has to offer."

Valerie looked slightly apprehensive.

"A lot of the stuff in here is very dark, Harry. I've read a few tomes," she murmured as they entered the library and shut the door behind them.

"I know. Remember I've seen everything," he intoned, looking imploringly at her before sighing. Wrapping his arm around her shoulder, he walked them forward until they reached the large sofa in the middle of the room.

He sat down before pulling her in his lap and wrapping his arms around her waist. Valerie tucked her head under his chin as he stroked her back softly.

"Does it have anything to do with what you had to do under his influence?" He whispered, and Valerie stiffened slightly. He rubbed her consolingly until she loosened up a little bit before cupping her cheek and making her look into his emerald pools.

Valerie gazed into his eyes as he started to speak.

"There is nothing of that woman in you," Harry began, making sure she was listening to what he had to say, "we had this talk last night as well, right? That woman was not you. That woman was a vile, murdering bitch who had been created using the darkest of magics by the vilest of wizards to bring as much misery to this world as possible, and there's no chance you could be someone even remotely similar to her. You are a brilliant woman, Val. You're a compassionate, honest, loving, sometimes scary," they chuckled, "but an overall brilliant human being who I'm proud to be married to," he admitted, caressing her cheek lovingly. She looked at him with teary eyes and he pulled her close.

"I know it's not easy for you. The trauma… I know how painful it is. But you have to understand, love… you'll never be that witch. You're too pure to become even a fraction of what she was," he finished softly, making sure to keep eye contact with her all the while.

Valerie shivered slightly at his words, running them around her head like a mantra to abide by. Deep inside she knew she was not evil, but the deeds were so fresh and vivid in her mind that she couldn't help but delve into the memories and relive the moments wherein she had been a mad witch who had killed, tortured, maimed, and done irredeemable deeds to innocents, destroying numerous lives and families in the process.

"I know…" she whispered, looking up at him, "I know I'm not that woman. But it's hard," she managed to get out.

"I get it. And I'll be with you every step of the way as you battle your inner demons to lend you my support whenever you need it. You're not alone, Val. Not anymore."

Valerie looked at him with a smile and nodded, prompting him to smile at her in return.

"Now, if we're done with the emotional heavy duty, let's get down to checking some exciting bit of magic, shall we?" He clapped his hands and rubbed them eagerly, and Valerie chuckled.

"Alright. Let's go," she nodded and got up from his lap before bending down and kissing him firmly.

"That was for being you," she grinned, and Harry smiled before kissing her once again.

A few hours had passed and the couple had poured over a few tomes, taking a copious number of notes.

Harry lifted his hands over his head and stretched, signing contentedly when he heard a few pops before looking over at Valerie who was laying back on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other and a thin book upright held on her chest.

"What's that you got there?" Harry asked, and Valerie put the book down to look at him.

"It was a healing handbook from the 17th century. A lot of practices have either evolved or fallen out of practice, but quite a bit of the premise remains the same. It was fascinating; gave me a few ideas for my potions projects," she remarked, pushing herself off the sofa to sit straight.

"You still looking into those rituals, huh?" She gestured to the thick, leather-bound book he had open in front of him which was depicting an odd ritual that she couldn't discern properly apart from a few polygonal shapes scattered over the pages.

"Ever since our own, I've felt oddly fascinated with the branch to be honest," Harry admitted, looking at her, "although it's a volatile branch of magic, you've got to admit it's very interesting."

Valerie frowned slightly.

"You're not thinking of performing one, are you?"

"Not yet," Harry shook his head, "I don't feel confident enough to try my hand at it. Although, someday, if need be, I might look into it."

"I'd rather you didn't," she murmured.

Harry chuckled ruefully.

"Me too. However, I can't deny that I'm a trouble magnet. The last three years have proven that things will keep happening around me, and who knows when I might have to perform one, or maybe even more of these?"

Valerie shook her head.

"Find any that interest you?"

"Well, a lot of these were fairly dark, demanding significant sacrifices which I don't want to make, but there are a few that sure seem interesting."

"Oh?" She enquired, looking intently at him.

Harry smiled.

"There's this one called the- "

Before Harry could proceed further, however, the door to the library opened and they turned around to see Sirius standing there.

"There you two are," he remarked, walking inside at a brisk pace, "I looked all over the manor for you two. I thought you'd gone back to your little love shack, but your room was unlocked and empty. I should've known I'd find you here. Would've saved me my fifteen minutes," he grinned.

Harry and Valerie flushed slightly at what Sirius called their room, and he laughed.

"Hey, no worries. Just remember the privacy charms next time."

They nodded, looking anywhere but at the man who was grinning like a dog.

"Where did you go by the way?" Harry asked after a moment, fixing his godfather with a gaze.

"Well… I waited for the two of you in the morning for breakfast, and when you didn't come, I went to your room, only to find it locked. However, it soon became apparent that you two were busy, so I ate my breakfast and went on to settle some work I had."

Harry and Valerie exchanged a look and sighed. It was clear what Sirius meant, and they resolved to put up the privacy wards from now on.

"Now, before anything else, I want to say something," Sirius began, before looking at Valerie solemnly. The woman in question looked at him curiously.

Sirius sighed.

"Listen Valerie. I want to apologize to you for what I said last night. I should've kept in mind that such topics are not for everyone, and stopped in time. So, if you had a hard time last night, I'm sorry."

Valerie's eyes widened before she shook her head.

"Oh, that's not why I got upset," she shook her head as Harry turned to look at her, "I can understand where you were coming from. It's just… it was disconcerting to see how your feelings changed and it felt very tragic. That's all."

Sirius nodded.

"Still, I had to apologize."

Valerie looked at him for a moment before giving a small nod. Sirius smiled.

"Good. Now that we have it out of the way, there's someone I'd like you two to meet."

"Yeah. You said there will be guests during dinner," Valerie nodded. Sirius grinned.

"Sure, there are. Let's go and meet them," he stood up and beckoned them to follow. Harry and Valerie quickly put the books away in their rightful places and followed after him.

Once they were outside the door, Sirius turned around and shut it before turning around.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Valerie," Sirius began, prompting her to turn toward him.

"Hmm?"

"I have something to talk to Harry about. Would you mind going ahead and joining them until we're done? We'll be back in a minute or two," Sirius asked. Valerie looked at him before looking at Harry, who shrugged. With a nod, she smiled before walking away.

Harry and Sirius saw her walking until she turned around the corner and disappeared from view.

"Now that she's not here, tell me this Harry," Sirius turned to his godson and gave him a look.

"What?" Harry asked, confused.

"What? That's what you've got to say after doing this?"

"What did I do?" Harry asked, confused.

"You married that girl, right?"

Harry nodded.

"Then, how could you forget to give her a ring!?" Sirius exclaimed in a whisper, and Harry's eyes widened. In all the chaos, the thought of a ring never even crossed his mind. Shocked, he realized that Valerie hadn't said anything about it either.

Was she expecting him to remember on his own? Did she expect him to give her one already, and was she disappointed that he'd overlooked such an essential detail?

"Yeah, that's the look of a man who's realized how badly he's fucked up," Sirius remarked, looking at him. Harry turned to look at him.

"There's no use in thinking about it. The first thing you're going to do tomorrow is go to Gringotts, visit the Potter Family vault with your wife and pick out a pair."

Harry nodded.

"Sure. I can't believe I overlooked such an important detail," he muttered.

"Well, given the fact that you've been in Hogwarts for so long and only came back tomorrow, it's understandable. But you should've at least bought her one in Hogsmeade. There are shops that sell rings."

Harry nodded with a sigh as they started walking toward the dining room where the guests were presumable sitting.

"Yeah, I'll do it tomorrow."

Sirius nodded and they continued to walk in silence.

"So-" Sirius began, but he was cut off when the sound of glass crashing down and breaking echoed through the corridor.

The two quickly exchanged a glance before rushing toward the dining room.

Once they reached the door and looked inside, they saw the broken jug of juice on the floor, the greenish liquid spreading across the floor as small bits of glass were tossed around all over the pristine marble.

The shocked face of Andromeda Tonks was the only thing they could see as they walked in, and as they turned to see what had her in such a state, they saw the same wide-eyed look on Valerie's face.

"B-bella?"

All eyes widened as they looked at Andromeda before they zeroed in on the young woman in question. Harry looked as a middle-aged man and a young woman with pink hair stood up from their seats in shock, their eyes fixed on his wife.

"A-andi…" Valerie whispered.

All Harry could do was watch in helpless silence as comprehension dawned on Sirius' face and he looked at his wife, shocked beyond belief.
