Journey into Love-Chapter 47

CHAPTER 47

Kingsley was the first to get up. He streched and went to the bathroom before he got dress.

Neville: *stirred a little bt didn't move frm his spot, continuing to sleep*

Kingsley gently woke him up. "Up, love." He smiled. "We have work today." He left Neville to get up and went down stairs. He sat at the dinning table and took the newpaper from it's usual spot. He straighed it out and read the headline. 'Minster of Magic suduces his underage assistant.' "WHAT?!!" He yelled startling the servants int he kitchen and even a maid up stairs.

Neville: *shot up at Kingsley's shout n quickly draped a robe on, rushing dwn to him* What is it, Kingsley? Something the matter?

Kingsley held up the front cover. A picture of them, in Kingsley's office, kissing. It moved at all wizarding pictures did. Under it was the words, 'The Cassinova strikes again. Adding young Neville Longbean to his list of conquests.'

Neville: What the...How did they find out?

"Your guess is as good as mine." He sat the paper down. "You did not say anything?"

Neville: No, nvr. I told no one. *looks at the article* She didn't even spell my name right *frowns* Unless it's Lord Black...

"Sirius would never. I know things about him that I could share. He would never." He shook his head. "This makes me seem as a letch." He looked down reading a list of at least 60 people that he supposely slept with. "Neville. I did not sleep with that many. They are making the names up." He was worried Neville would not believe him.

Neville: I knw. I believe u. I'm ur assistant, remember? I've seen ur lovers bk then. I keep track sometimes. Tht number is ridiculous

"This will be all over the Ministry when we get there. You can stay home if you like. I will go." He couldn't even feel like he could kiss Neville in their own home.

Neville: But...But what abt you? I can't just let u face it alone

"I have to. I am the Minster. I can't be bullied. If I hold my head high people will see that."

It was about 6 when Sirius door flew open and Wallace Flint came, draging Sirius up. "You ass!" He punched him.

Sirius: *barely awake wen he felt the punch on his face, sending him hitting against the bedpost* Aah! Fuck!! What the fuck is ur problem, Flint?!

"You." He seethed. "You invite us here only to rape my daughter."

Severus come from his room. "Master." He gasped.

Sirius: Rape ur daughter?! What the fuck are u talking abt?? I never touched her!!

"That is not what she says and what the proof says."

Sirius: What proof? What proof do u have? I have the right mind to throw u out right now for this slander!

"In her room." He took him bye his arm and dragged him to Cassandra;s room. Inside the covers had been messed there was a mixture of seemen and blood on the bed and to the side sitting was Cassandra, crying her night gown ripped.

Severus followed after them.

Sirius: What the... *sees the mess* This cannot be... I...I never left the room! This cannot be possible!

Cassandra saw him and started crying harder. "It is. We cast a DNA spell. The semen is yours. You raped my vrigin daughter."

Severu saw the mess to...how could he? He ran from the room crying.

Sirius: S...Severus!! This is trickery! I knw something's afoot. It's all ur doing! I will expose u! *chases after Severus* Severus! Severus, wait!!

Severus closed the door to the bathroom. He was going to be sick. He leaned over the toilet just in time.

Sirius: *hears him hurl in the bathroom* Severus! Severus, open up! *knocks feverishly at the door* I didn't do it! You must believe me!

"But there is proof. I was not with you last night." He leaned against the wall. "How could you? With our baby."

Sirius: But...But that's impossible! I was doing it with you last night! You came to me last night n did with me, remember?

"Master, I never did. I slept through the night until Lord Flint woke me up."

Sirius: What...? Then...Then... *a revelation hit* That bitch...That bitch!! She used shape-shifting to get to me! It had to be it! That bitch did metamorphosis on me!

Severus open the door a crack. "You had sex with her?" He was crying, slient tears. "Was she better than me?"

Sirius: Pls dont say tht. I reli thought it was u, honest. I thought I was having sex with u. I wouldn't do it if I knew it was her. I swear. U must believe me, love

Severus wiped his face. "I try to, but it just hurts to think of you having sex with her. Your' suppose to be mine!" He leaned up and started hiting him, not as bad she he had when he had the miscarriage. He was crying too hard. "You're suppose to be mine!"

Sirius: *wraps his arms ard him* I am! I am yours. Always has been, always will be. Pls, don't be upset. I nvr wanted this to happen. Pls. I love u, only u. I beg u, my love, pls believe me. I beg u frm the bottom of my heart

Severus continured to sob into Sirius chest. When he did calm down he was red faced and stomach felt bad. He leaned agains him. "Master. I hate her." He whispered. "I want her out of my house."

Sirius: I knw. I want her to leave as well. I can't believe she would go this far. I will personally shove them into the fireplc myself

"But what if she does carry your child?" He looked up at him with fear in his eyes.

Sirius: Do u wish me to abort it? I have all the money in the world to make her do it, because I will not have any child with anyone besides u

He opened his mouth then closed it. "I don't know Master."

Sirius: Wat do u reli want me to do, love?

"I just know I want her out of here." He bit his lip thinking. "But now her child has a run for my child title. She is a free woman not a slave." He looked at him. "I don't want the child to be thrown away like last night trash. It deserves to have a father, like mine does."

Sirius: Then does tht mean u r willing to accept her child as a half-sibling to our child?

"Yes. Give the child your name, but not her."

Sirius: Alright. I will cross tht bridge wen it happens. Bt u will have to understand tht I will always favour our child first before hers. Our child will be the one to have most of everything I have. Call me selfish, bt I just want wat's best for OUR child

"I know, but don't snob her child. It is your fleash and blood too. No matter if we have more kids hers will be second in line in case something happens to ours, alright?"

Sirius: You have my word. Now, to deal with her. *taps his chin* THere has to be a loophole in which I can exploit to dissolve the magically bound contract

"She proably thought that if she got pregnant you would have to marry her." He sighed, rubbing his belly which was feel a little up set but not much. "Master how much longer will it take to get me free?"

Sirius: As soon as I figure out the procedures, I will do it immediately. So far, many of the ppl I approached, including the slavers themselves were hush-hush abt how to free u. I may have to broaden my search on this

"I have not heard of anyone that has ever been freed." Severus put in.

Sirius: I knw. Some of those I approached snapped at me rather violently, insisting tht there is no such thing as slavery freedom. I'll have to go deeper into this matter, n at the same time try to figure out how to get right of the Flints

Severus sighed. "All the while I have to play like the good little slave. She thinks she is going to lord his over me she has another thing coming!"

Sirius: I will make sure she won't. I just need to find tht loophole, n then goodbye Cassandra n the Flints

"I just thought of something." He smiled. "When the child is born can we take him or here? I will rase it as my own."

Sirius: What? Are...Are you sure?

"Yes. It is our child no matter how it was conseved. I want to raise it."

Sirius: But do u not worry tht Cassandra might want to raise the child on her own n wouldn't want to give it to me?

"you are a lord and she is now a ruined woman."

Sirius: True. If her love for tht Muggle-born she speaks and her lack of love for me is true, she would not hesitate to give her child up evn to hide it frm her lover

Severus nodded. "That's right." Severus lighty rubbed his belly. "What are you going to do now? Shearly her Father will want a marriage. How can you get out of one?"

Sirius: I'm going to have to look thru the contract again, see if I can find any loopholes in it

"Alright. May I come? I am worried tht if they find out that I am pregnant they may try to get rid of my child do that woman and her's can be the only one."

Sirius: Yes, of course. Better yet, come with me to my office. I want to read up on it there so tht the Flints won't have a chance to sabotage my plans. I'm sure ur curious abt my workplc, no?

"Yes." He stood up. "Let me got change and I will be ready." He kissed his cheek.

Sirius: *smiles* I'll get changed too. Meet me at the study. The contract is there

"Ok." Severus went to go change into something sutiable. Then quickly made his way to the sudy.

Sirius: *was relieved tht the Flints were out for the moment n went to the study to find the contract nicely locked in his desk drawers. As soon as he took it out, Sev was there in front of him* Ready, love?

"Yeah." He nodded going to him. "We both are." He put his hand on his stomach.

Sirius: *takes him by the waist* Then let's go. The carriage awaits. I don't want to risk our child by Floo-ing *leads him out to the carriage tht he ordered Paprika to prepare*

Severus kissed him. "Thank you Master. Oh! Can we please go to the Docters today? I want to know how far along I am and if there is things that we can not do."

Sirius: Sure, anything for u, my love *kissed him bk n signaled the driver to drive them to St. Mungo*

Severus laid his head on Sirius' chest. "Did you kiss her?"

Sirius: No, I didn't, thank Merlin. She just got right dwn to business, caught me by surprise. But no, I didn't kiss her. My lips belong only to you, my love

"Good." He leaned up to kiss him. "Why did you come inside her, if you thought it was me?"

Sirius: She was...rather convincing. I wanted to pull out, bt her Kegels were crazy. She gripped me real tight, n she tricked me with ur voice. U knw how sexy ur voice does to me

"But still you remember what the doctor said before. It could hurt the baby. I do like to fill you come inside me, you know that." He picked at a botton on the front Sirius' shirt. "But I would rather you come on then in me for the sake of the baby."

Sirius: I knw. If it were reli u, i would've made a big mistake. I'll be more careful next time *kisses his forehead, then feels the carriage stop* Ah, we're here

Severus leaned up then stood up and got out of the carriage. "I hope it was not a false alarm." He said to himself biting his lip.

Sirius: Don't worry. I'm sure it won't. Come on *leads him to St Mungo n requested for the doctor tht treated Sev*

It was a few moment before they were showed to a room and a few more mintues before the doctor came in. "Lord Black, Severus good to see you again." He wrote something down on Severus' chart. "What seems to be the matter?" Like he didn't know.

Sirius: Well, obviously we need ur expertise. Sev here had gotten a positive in his pregnancy test, bt he wants to be sure it wasn't a false alarm.

"Ah well, lets get you up on the table. Do you still have a woman's vagina?" He asked, while getting out his wand.

Severus nodded as he got on the table.

"Lay down. Dont be nervious." He tried to calm Severus. The doctor ran his wand over his belly and a sceen apeared with a bunch of readings and numbers and what not. "The test was right. You are pregnant again, Severus."

Sirius: See? I knew it wasn't a false alarm *kisses Sev's cheek*

"I know this is a joyius occation but I fear I must make it diffucult. Giving his history I would like for the two of you to for go intimate relations for the first tymester. Miscarrages at rarely in the second trymester. But I just want to make sure. You are about 4 weeks along so that is only two more monthes can you do that?"


Severus looked up at Sirius.

Sirius: Anything to ensure the child's safety, doc. Can u endure it, love?

"Nothing is for sure, but if he avoids stress and sex for two more months there is a likely chance that the baby will survive. An 80% chance."

"If you can." He nodded.

Sirius: Will do. Don't worry. This time we will follow ur advice to the letter. Not taking any chances

"Good. I would like him to see him in about two weeks and I want him to take more folic acid, Iron, and calcium"

Sirius: I'll make sure he takes them. We'll see u in 2 weeks then

"Alright. Well it is good to see that you are in good health." He smiled

Severusn odded and got off the table and went wil Sirius. When they got back into the carriage He looked at Sirius. "Master..." He started. "I will do anything I can to help you through the next two months."

Sirius: *motions for the driver to take them to the Ministry before replying* It's alright, my love. Don't force urself. U just take care of ur health. U n our child. It is more important to me than anything, evn than my libido

"But..." He sighed and nodded ~I don't want you to be with anyone.~ He said in his mind.

Sirius: *sees Sev's facial expression n chuckles, stroking his hair* Don't worry. Ur the only one for me, my love

~That's what you say now.~ He leaned into Sirius. "I wonder if it a boy or a girl." he said, changing the subject.

Sirius: I thought u wanted a little girl?

"I do, but what if it is a boy? I was just thinking. You want your heir don't you?"

Sirius: Yes, I do. Bt regardless if it's a boy or girl, they are still going to be my heir. I just want u to be happy.

"To be your 'wife' before he or she is born would make me very happy."

Sirius: Once I find the loophole in here *pats teh contract kept in his pocket* I will make u my wife in time

"And once you find out how to make me free." He smiled. "Thank you, Master."

Sirius: I will. U can count on me *the carriage stops* Here we are. Watch ur step

"Thank you." He got up and stopped. "Wow the building looks huge."

Sirius: It's the plc tht runs the magic world. It has to be. Although personally I think it's a bit of an overkill. Stick close, love. It's office hours, n u do not want to be caught in the mob *held him close to his waist*

Severus nodded sticking to Sirius but it was just so huge and big and shinny. He had to make himself keep walking.

Sirius: *led him to the elevator n went to the floor where his office is. Once he was there, Kingsley was at his door, looking rather displeased because the hubbub at home just now with the Flints caused him to be late for work*

"Sirius where in the hell have you been?" Kingsley seethed. "My office, now!" He turned and went to his office.

Sirius: *winced* Oh boy. Tht was my boss. Don't worry. I'll be bk soon. Wait in my office, OK, love? Would u like me to keep it locked?

"No that is ok. I hope it was not my fault." Severus gulped. "Be back soon?" He asked.

Sirius: I promise *kissed his lips, opened the office door for him to let him in before shutting it n went his way to Kingsley's office, taking a deep breath*

Kingsley was in his office pacing, not a good sign. "Close the door." He told Sirius.

Sirius: *does as he was told n came up to him* I'm reli sorry I'm late but I have a legitimate...

"Never mind that." He interupted. He threw the paper at him. "How do you explain this!"

Sirius: *picks up the paper n saw the headlines* Woah! How did...Ah, Rita Skeeter. Spreading gossips as usual *looks at Kings' accusing face* Don't look at me, Kingsley. I had nothing to do with this! Ever since Rita stalked me abt the scandal case btwn Fudge n Umbridge, I had a restraining order against her!

"Then who could tell?" Kingsley asked. "I didn't but it seems to have happen. Now I have this scandle on my back."

Sirius: How would I knw? Whatever happened btwn u nvr left this room. I swear I didn't tell anyone. *looks at the paper again, n cocks a brow* Did u reli sleep with more than 60 ppl?

"No. 15 at the most. Half of those names are made up amd some just want to be known as the Minister's lover. Besides I have never slept with a woman for the eight on there are false."

Sirius: True. Ur preference for men is more or less well knwn in the Ministry. *sees the misspelling on Neville's name* I see Rita still sucks at spelling ppl's names

"Yes and he is not underage. He just turned 18 for bloody sake."

Sirius: I knw. My best friend's son Harry's age was misquoted once wen she was giving a special interview with Cedric regarding his upcoming marriage with Harry. I mean, seriously, how can someone be 12 forever?

Kingsley nodded. "Still. This could ruin me and him. I told him not to come to work with me today because I didn't know what would happen."

Sirius: Smart move. We're gonna have to find out who was the one who leaked this out before it gets any worse. N ur gonna have to come clean with the Ministry somehow abt ur official relationship with Longbottom. I mean, ur not ashamed of it, are u?

"No. I love him, but he is young and innocent. I wanted our relationship to take off before it we come out. But right now it would bel lucky if it supptered."

Sirius: Yeah. I get wat u mean. Well, u've got the connections. Find someone who can help u track dwn the informant. I'm...quite in a predicament right now tht cannot wait

"Very well. Since it was not you I guess you can go back to your office. I have inquiers to make."

Sirius: Thank u, Kingsley *nodded curtly n left quickly bk to his office where his beloved is waiting*

Severus was looking at all the books on his shelf and found one of pitcular liking.

Sirius: Hey there, love. Do u like my office so far?

"Yeah, nice. Can I read this book?" He asked.

Sirius: Sure, go ahead. I need to start checking on this anyway *takes out the contract n sat at his table reading thru it carefully*

Severus curled up on the couch and started reading.

Sirius: *after abt half an hour of scanning thru, he came across the fine print section n looked thru using the magnifying glass and grinned* Aha! Gotcha, suckers!

Seveurs looked up form his book. He was already half through it. "Got who?"

Sirius: One thing I learnt frm this job, "Always read the fine print". Severus my love, as soon as office hours is ovr, so will be our troubles

"Really? That fast?" He asked going over to him.

Sirius: Let's just hope so. Now stay here, beloved. I need to go do my job for a while n find out some things. Help urself to anything in here, ok, love?

"Alright." He nodded.
