Arriving and Registration
Harry stayed secure in his Alpha's arms as the portal whisked them away to Nevarah. He didn't know when he had closed his eyes but blinked them open when he was nudged.
"Look and see," Garrick said with a smile and pointed to a place outside of their portal. Harry gasped at the site and heard it echoed by the others who had never seen Nevarah. It was a beautiful place and became even more breathtaking the closer they got. There were large bodies of glistening water, large fields of the greenest grass, lush forests, a large volcano, and market place that seemed to stretch for miles. There were areas that looked like they were made of Shadows and Harry saw what he thought was an entire city in the sky as they drew closer.
"This is amazing. It is so beautiful," Harry said with wonder in his voice. They passed through what looked like a mass of writhing shadows and monsters. Harry shivered and pressed closer to Sal. "Well, parts of it."
"Those a Fabrine. They are always trying to breach the wards to get into Nevarah. But the Wards are powered by the Royals and tied into Nevarah herself. When there is a breach it is quickly taken care of and they almost never make it into the realm," Salazar explained.
"When we do have a major breach, we get to Hunt. That is always so much fun," Zagan said with an excited glint in his eye. Harry could tell that he very much enjoyed it when that happened. He could see that the Hellcat was not the only one of his new bonded who was excited at the thought. That was interesting.
"I get the impression that some of you like it when there is a major breach followed by a hunt," Harry said with a smile. He didn't think he would like doing that for fun but he would never judge his bonded for what they enjoyed. There were chuckles around the portal and then they were passing through a ward and landing in front of a large gate. There were Dragels in armor and some who looked official waiting for them.
"State your purpose," The official-looking woman stated.
"Returning from a Soul Scream. The Submissive's family and other Dragel in the area decided to seek sanctuary in Nevarah as well," Salazar explained. The woman nodded and then pulled some papers out and laid them on the table.
"The Submissive?" She asked and Harry was gently led to the front. He smiled at her. She smiled back and inclined her head. "Congratulations on your new circle and the move to Nevarah. I need your information please so that we can get you temporary citizenship."
"My name is Harrison Serpens Black I am sixteen years old," Harry told her. She wrote it down.
"And I am assuming that you are Earthborn? Wizard raised?" She asked and indicated the wand in the holster on his wrist. Harry nodded.
"Yes, ma'am," Harry said politely.
"Your element, Dear. Do you know it?" She asked. Harry looked up at Salazar it hadn't really been discussed.
"He doesn't have one. He is a Nameless and from what we can tell he has a strong affinity for Shadows," Amon stepped forward and offered. Then he pointed at Harry's wrist where the Shadow Snake was still wrapped. Harry smiled and pet the Shadow Snake like it was a true pet.
"Thank you. And have you decided what you will register your circle as yet?" She asked.
"For now, put it down as Slytherin," Salazar answered. The lady smiled and wrote that down as well.
"Ok, that is all I need from you, Mr. Black," She said and placed his paper to the side.
"Lord Black," Salazar offered. She nodded and made the change on his paper before placing it back to the side.
"Let us get any others in your circle that are not already citizens and then we will move on from there," She said kindly.
"There are only two others in my circle that are Earthborn," Harry told her and Severus and Blaise stepped forward.
"Severus Tobias Snape, Thirty-one years old, Earthborn, Wizard raised. Shadow Pareya," Sev stated quickly and to the point. She wrote it down quickly and placed his paper on top of Harry's paper.
"Blaise Christian Zabini, seventeen years old, Earthborn, Wizard raised, Storm Joker," Blaise followed their lead and then stepped over next to Harry and Sal as the woman filled his paper out as well and laid it on top of the others. Then she pulled out a different stack of papers.
"This is for those of you that are native of Nevarah. I will fill out the paperwork for why you were ported out and that you have returned as part of a new circle. This will be very minimal and not truly official. You will need to officially register as a circle at the same time that you get permanent citizenship for the others. I would not take your time with this, however. As you know The Hunt will be starting in a little over a month and you will want to be prepared," The official advised.
"We will make sure that it is taken care of, thank you Madame. I am Salazar Slytherin Alpha Shadow and Dark Fae," He replied and then Garrick stepped forward.
"Garrick Gryffindor, Beta, Fire," He said and then stepped over to the others who were finished.
"Kiran and Kira, I am a Changeling and Fire Pareya," The man said and the next one went. They each took their turn giving their information and then standing to the side. Once Harry's circle was finished Salazar stepped back up with Hadrian at his side. Garrick wrapped his arms around Harry and rumbled soothingly to him. Harry looked up at him confused but kept quiet.
"We have prisoners that contributed to our Submissive's Soul Scream. We have evidence of their crimes and are asking for a trial and for the prisoners to be kept in the court cells until the trials can be held," Salazar informed the woman. She nodded more serious now. Hadrian pulled out a void stone and opened it. He walked into it and then out with and bound and gagged Dudley Dursley. Harry inhaled sharply and pressed closer to Garrick. Now he understood why the Beta had tried to soothe him. Blaise and Severus moved closer to him.
Harry reached out and grasped Blaise's hand and leaned into Severus' hand in his hair. He just let the three of them comfort him while he watched.
"This is Dudley Dursley. Sixteen years old. He is accused of abusing my submissive and having knowledge that my Submissive was under compulsions, potions, and spells to take away his free will. He was also aware of his parents being paid to cause said abuse," Salazar stated coldly. The woman wrote all of it down and then signaled a Gheyo who stepped forward and had Dudley stand on a platform that took his picture and then he was passed to another guard who took the paperwork as well. Harry assumed he was being taken to a cell.
Hadrian once again stepped into the void stone and walked out with Vernon Dursley. He was also bound and gagged and looked furious. He looked around when he stepped out and when he spotted Harry, he turned almost purple in his anger and attempted to take a step toward him. Harry whimpered and was comforted by the three bonded holding him while other bonded growled menacingly at his uncle. Hadrian snarled and yanked him back to stand in front of the official.
"Vernon Dudley. Knowingly took money to abuse his nephew, my Submissive. Starved him, beat him, and treated him worse than dirt. He made the boy to sleep in a cupboard under the stairs," Salazar stated and then Vernon was taken the same way that Dudley was. Then Petunia was subjected to the same. Harry thought it was over until Hermione was pulled out of the stone. She fought way more that the Dursley's had. Harry glared at her.
"Hermione Jean Potter," Salazar stated. "She is a wixen who has knowingly potioned my Submissive to keep him under control and compliant to their ultimate plans to have him kill his own father and then have him killed as well." Hermione struggled and tried to speak around her gag but couldn't. She turned to Harry as if to try and plead with him but was yanked back around and handed to a Gheyo.
"These are memories, medical scans, and statements that have been collected as evidence against the four accused," Hadrian said and handed over a box that he had also removed from his ward stone. "Everything in here is labeled for who it is against and where it came from." The official took the box and handed it to another Gheyo who strode through the gate and in the same direction as the others had gone with their prisoners. Harry breathed a sigh of relief when the void stone was closed. Harry had been afraid that they had Dumbledore in there as well.
Salazar spoke quietly to the official for a moment and then they stepped back to Harry and their circle. Salazar lifted Harry in his arms, and they waited as Harry's family registered.
"Tomas Marvolo Black, Alpha, Nameless with a Shadow affinity. Our circle is the Black Circle. We are all Earthborn and Wizard raised," Tom told the official.
"Bellatrix Druella Black, Submissive, Shadow," Bella told her and snuggled up to Tom.
"Rodolphus Isiah Black, Beta, Storm," The Beta said and then stepped aside. They continued to go until it was Luna's turn.
"This is our other Circle child and Harrison's younger sister. Luna Rose Black. She is fifteen years old and currently uninherited," Tom informed the official. Once they were done, the Malfoys did their registration. After that, The Weasleys stepped forward. Once they were finished, one of the Prewitts stepped forward and opened a void stone. The first person led out was Molly Weasley.
"This is Mollandria Weasley nee Prewitt. She is a Fire Submissive. She is accused of binding our children with threefold suppressions that would have completely destroyed their inheritance and most likely killed them by the time that they turned twenty-six. Our children were examined by healers that gave us proof of this before the suppressions were removed," Arthur told the official. Molly looked completely stricken when Arthur had told her about the fact that it would have killed her children. Either she was a very good actress or that was something that she didn't know. Harry felt no sympathy for her.
"She was also one of the people that knowingly potioned Harrison Black to keep him under control and conspired to have the boy marry our daughter and then be murdered so that our daughter would inherit his fortunes," Arthur had continued. He handed over all of the evidence of it. The next person brought out of the void stone was Ginny.
"This is my daughter Ginerva Molly Weasley. She is only fifteen and uninherited she also still has the threefold suppressions on her. She is accused of knowingly conspiring with the others to potion and control Harrison Black so that she could marry him and then inherit his line and fortune once he was dead by their plans," Arthur explained. "I want her locked away for now until she can be examined by a healer and seen by a mind healer to see if she can be helped." Both Molly and Ginny were led away with the evidence and paperwork by the Gheyo. Once that was finished, they were allowed admittance into Nevarah.
"Does everyone have a place to stay?" Salazar asked.
"Yes, we have a property here on Nevarah in the Shadow Ream. I have the coordinates here," Tom said and pulled out a roll of parchment that looked like a deed. He handed it to Sal when he asked for it.
"I know where the closest portal is to this location. If you like though I can port us to my home where we will be living so that you know where it is and then we can port from there to the nearest place outside of your wards. This looks like they are not keyed to you specifically yet and will need to be done before you can port directly in and out of the home," Salazar explained to them.
"That sounds like a plan thank you for the help," Tom told him. Salazar nodded and then looked at the other Dragel.
"We will be going with Tom's circle to stay with them for now," Lucius told Harry's Alpha. Salazar nodded.
"The Weasleys will be coming with us. We will put them up in a Prewitt property after talking to our mother. She will want to meet her only grandchildren. Our circle has not given her any grandchildren to spoil just yet," Fabian let them know.
"See you later, Harrykins," Fred and George said and swept him into a bear hug pressed between the two of them. They each kissed him on the cheek and then smirked at a few low growls they received from Harry's new bonded before they bounded away to the older twins. Harry just laughed. He hugged Ron tightly when he came up to him.
"It is so weird how huggy you are now. It is going to take some getting used to. See you later, mate. But it better not be too long. I have missed you," Ron said and then ruffled Harry's hair and walked over to his brothers. Bill and Charlie both hugged him and told him goodbye and then it was Arthur's turn. He pulled Harry into a tight hug and nuzzled him a bit.
"Be a good boy, Harry. Get to know your new family and start truly enjoying your life. I expect to hear from you soon about how you are doing. Just because you have a new family doesn't mean that you aren't still ours as well. We love you so much, Son," Arthur kissed his head and wiped the few tears that were falling down his cheeks. Then he gently nudged him into the arms of his waiting Alpha.
"Here are the coordinates to our home. The Prewitts can teach you how to use our communication network. Harry will be happy to hear from you all and perhaps in a few weeks when we are all settled properly, we can have you over for dinner or spend a day out together," Garrick handed Arthur a paper.
"Thank you, for allowing us to still be a part of his family," Arthur told them.
"We would never deny Harry the right to be with people that he considers a friend or family," Salazar said and kissed Harry when he chirred happily at the Alpha.
Then they watched as the Prewitts and the Weasleys headed off for a portal zone. Salazar gave instructions to the rest of them about porting to his home in groups. He was going to go first with Harry and a few of their bonded and some of Harry's family. He was going to open his wards so that they could all get through for now without any issues. Garrick was going to go next with a few of their bonded and some of Harry's family and then Hadrian would port with the rest of them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry looked around in awe as Salazar tended to his wards. He was staring at a castle. One he had seen in a book somewhere at some point. This was Slytherin Castle. Salazar's home. Now he knew why no one had ever been able to find it. Salazar had somehow taken it with him when he had moved to Nevarah.
"That is Slytherin Castle," Draco said from somewhere behind him. Harry could hear the same awe in the blonde's voice that he was feeling.
"Yes it is," Salazar said as he walked back to them. He threw an arm around Harry and pulled him close. "It was a bit of brilliant dimensional magic that Garrick and I worked on with a few other Dragel. I wanted to bring my home with me. I knew that it would be large enough to house a large circle or even two circles if the need arose."
"It is beautiful," Harry said and loved the almost preen that Salazar did at the compliment. He figured it must be a thing of honor to provide a home that your Submissive was proud of.
"I am so jealous. Ugh, seriously who would have ever that that he would have something that I would be jealous of? It almost makes me want to hurl," Draco said in a dramatic way. Then Harry heard a smack and looked back to see Draco rubbing his head and trying to hide his glare from Lucius.
"He is not your enemy, be kind and gracious as you were raised to be," Lucius said and Draco looked embarrassed and looked down.
"I am truly sorry for my disrespectful attitude. It will take some time for me to let go of old habits. I do want us to be friends, Harry," Draco admitted. Harry smiled. It would be nice to be Draco's friend and not his enemy.
"Apology accepted. I want us to be friends, too," Harry said and held out his hand. Draco looked at it and then up at Harry. "What do you say Draco? We can learn about 'the wrong sort' together." Draco grinned at the reminder of what had started their feud when they were eleven. Draco took Harry's hand and shook it. Harry smiled back and then leaned into Salazar to wait for the others to arrive. They had been waiting to make sure that Salazar had time to adjust his wards.
Once everyone had arrived, they were led into the castle and shown around the first floor and Salazar and Garrick took the time to key everyone into the wards. Then they ported the same way over to his parent's property. They went through the process of Tom taking control of the wards and then adjusting them to his liking and keying them all into it. Instead of going in and having a look around they all said their goodbyes. Tearfully on Harry and his mum's part. The two Submissives had not parted easily when it was time. Sal and Tom had even offered for them to stay together but eventually, they had parted with promises of visiting in the next day, two at the most.
Harry didn't just have his new circle to get to know. He also needed to get to know his parents and sister. His circle assured him that they understood completely that the two circles would be spending a lot of time together for a while. Harry and the rest of their circle was shown the rest of the castle. Harry had also learned about information transfers using their hands it had been so cool. Salazar and Garrick had done it so that everyone knew the layout of the house and where everything was.
Severus and Kiran had fussed around in the kitchen, resting room, and other main rooms in the house to make sure that they were acceptable before they were allowed to head to bed for the night. The Gheyo had been shown many floors and wings in the castle that they could claim for their own. They had ended up choosing the entire fourth floor. It had four wings and each of the Aces had claimed a wing for their suite. The Two Jokers chose rooms on the third wing. Harry heard them discussing turning the fourth wing into one large training area with lots of wards and protections so that they didn't have to hold back when they trained. The other wing would be left alone for now.
Finally, patrols were determined and then they all went to the resting room to get some sleep. Harry was helped into some pajamas and placed in the middle of the bed with Salazar and Garrick on either side of him and the others filled in around them. As soon as everyone was settled, Harry snuggled into his Alpha and Beta. He was asleep in moments.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry startled awake when he heard someone screaming in terror. It took him a moment to realize he had been the one screaming. He was covered in sweat and breathing heavily. The resting room door slammed open and his King Wikhn as well as Hadrian burst in with weapons drawn looking for a threat. Harry was crying now and his other bonded were trying to soothe him.
"A Nightmare," Harry breathed. " I am so sorry. I didn't mean..." He didn't get to finish. Salazar hushed him gently and pushed his hair out of his face.
"It is ok, Little Snake. You are alright. You don't need to apologize. You have been through some very traumatizing things and nightmares are perfectly normal. You are safe, now. This is a safe place for you," Salazar comforted him. Harry felt a spell wash over him and the sweat and tears were dried and he felt clean again.
"Do you think that you can go back to sleep, Love? You have only been asleep for a few hours. Not nearly long enough," Severus asked gently. Harry nodded and took a deep breath. He could go back to sleep. He felt safe and secure.
"Yes, I can settle back down, Sev," Harry told his Pareya. Then he was pulled back down into Salazar's arms and looked at Garrick questioningly when he got up and moved instead of cuddling up with them. He understood a moment later when Severus took his place and cuddled close to Harry and Salazar. Garrick moved to the other side of Sal. Harry trilled in thanks and melted into Severus when he kissed his head and started to card his fingers through Harry's hair. Harry was back asleep in moments. Wikhn and Hadrian waited until he was asleep and then nodded to the others before resuming their patrol. They would need to find a way to communicate with those on patrol at night to let them know when it was only a nightmare. Harry was probably going to have them for a while. He had suffered too much in his short life and it was normal to have nightmares.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning, Harry was happily settled between Hadrian and Wikhn at the breakfast table. He felt really bad about worrying them last night when he had his nightmare and in his own way was trying to make it up to them. Plus, he was still having some issues not being close to someone. His chair was pushed almost flush against Wikhn so that even small movements would cause them to brush together.
"I see your friend is missing," Hadrian said and tapped Harry's wrist. He looked down to his wrist where his Shadow Snake was now missing. Harry shrugged and smiled.
"It must have left sometime in the night. I still think it is so cool that I can hold a Shadow," Harry said wistfully.
"We will teach you how to properly use them. If it makes you happy to have pet Shadows, then you will them. Your affinity for Shadows is already showing itself to be very powerful. So, those of us with Shadow abilities are going to take the time to work with you and see what all you can do with them," Salazar told him.
"You are going to learn how to do a lot of things, Darling. We are going to teach you to fly with those lovely wings of yours. There are so many things for you to learn about what it means to be a Dragel," Garrick added. Harry beamed at all of them.
"Do you two know how to fly?" Harry asked Blaise and Severus. They were the only other Earthborn here.
"I inherited as a Gheyo when I was nine. I learned to fly a long time ago," Blaise answered. "This isn't my first time in Nevarah either. My mother brought me here after I inherited to train and learn," Blaise answered. Harry nodded and then looked a bit startled. '
"I thought that Dragel didn't inherit until we are at least sixteen," Harry asked curiously. Hadrian touched his shoulder.
"It means that something life threatening happened to him that caused it, Little Snake," Hadrian said gently. Harry turned to Blaise who just nodded and shrugged. Blaise had almost died when he was nine. That distressed Harry just thinking about it. He may have spoken more to Blaise in the last twenty-four hours than he had in years, but the Joker was his. He gave a small whimper and was startled when Wikhn picked him up out of his chair and placed him Blaise's lap.
"It's alright, Harry. It was a long time ago," Blaise told him. Harry just wrapped his arms around Blaise's neck and buried his nose in his neck. Blaise just rubbed circles on his back and rumbled soothingly to him. Harry whined and pressed his nose into Blaise's neck more. "Bite, Harry," The Joker told him and leaned his head more to the side. Harry didn't even hesitate to sink his small teeth into Blaise's neck. The others carried on talking and enjoying breakfast as Harry took comfort from his Joker and reassured himself that he was fine.
Finally, Harry pulled his teeth out and nuzzled Blaise's neck as he licked the bite marks closed. He still didn't move though, he just laid his head on Blaise's shoulder and sat cuddled to the Joker. Harry's plate was placed down in front of them as well and Blaise alternated between feeding himself and feeding Harry. The Submissive just sat and surprisingly wasn't embarrassed about letting the Slytherin feed him.
When they were all finished, they retreated to the sitting room to discuss what their plans would be moving forward. Harry had happily walked to the room tucked securely under Blaise's arm and chirred happily when he was pushed into Severus' lap and the Joker sat next to them. Harry nuzzled Severus who wrapped his arms around him and just let him do it.
"So what is the game plan for the time being. A list of things that need to be accomplished," Kiran asked.
"We need to get Harry, Blaise, and Severus permanent citizenship. We need to officially register as a circle. Amon wants to do a more in-depth examination for Harry. The Hunt starts in a little over a month, so we need to decide if Harry is hunting. We need to find his mentor and figure out why they haven't shown up. Visit the bank and figure out or circle funds. Talk to the courts about trials. I believe these are the most important things at the moment," Salazar named off. "Is there anything that anyone would like to add?"
"I think that covers everything for now, Alpha. I would start with registration and then the bank," Kiran offered. "That will give others the opportunity to check in with their families or jobs to let them know what has happened." Sal nodded.
"That sounds like a good idea. That is what we will do. We will get Harry and the others registered as well as the circle. If all of you will leave me your information I will register our circle as well. We can have lunch in the market and let Harry and the others explore a little while the rest of you see to your affairs," Salazar stated.
"What is The Hunt? The lady at the gates mentioned it last night as well," Harry spoke up, finally raising his head from nuzzling at Severus.
"It is a major event that happens in Nevarah every ten years for eight weeks. It is when Dragel and other beings from this realm and others come together to Hunt for potential circle mates or just to enjoy the festivities," Kiran offered. Harry smiled and nodded.
"That sounds fun," Harry said. "You said we need to decide if I am going to Hunt. What do you mean by that?"
"You have incomplete Gheyo suites and your Gheyo will settle better with them complete. I think that you and our Aces should frequent the pits during The Hunt to complete our suites. That is what I mean. You should Hunt for more bonded to add to our circle," Salazar told him. Harry looked uncertain about that.
"What part upsets you, Harry?" Severus asked. He had felt the Submissive shift in his arms. Harry still looking down mumbled. "You need to look up and speak clearly, Darling."
"Do I truly need to add to our circle? I feel content and whole right now. I don't want to add anymore," Harry said still quietly but loud enough for Severus to hear him. Severus caressed his cheek and smiled gently at him.
"You do not have to do anything that you truly do not want to do. If there is one thing that I will always insist on unless it puts your life in danger is that you will never be forced to do something that you truly do not want to do. You have had too many choices in your life taken from you," Severus promised. Harry smiled up at the Pareya. Someone who he had thought hated him only a few months ago. Now he couldn't imagine not have Severus with him.
"Thank you, Sev," Harry said and then leaned up and gently pressed his lips to the older man's lips. Then he pulled back and was blushing so prettily that Severus knew he was done for when it came to Harry.
"He is right, Little Snake. No one is going to force you to do anything that you don't want to do. This is all still very new to you, and it is normal and natural that it will take time for you to adjust to your new life with us. We will have time to bond and settle as a circle. When it is time for The Hunt to start if you still do not feel the need or urge to Hunt then we will just enjoy our time and not worry about Hunting," Salazar informed him. Harry looked uncertain.
"You said Hadrian and Doyle will settle better if I Hunt though," Harry said quietly. He didn't want to make any choices that would cause his new bonded to suffer. Doyle walked over and knelt in front of Harry. He grasped his hand and cupped his cheek. Harry looked into those wonderful dark eyes.
"That is not something that you need to worry over. If you do not feel the urge to Hunt, then it will do you no good to try and force yourself. You won't make the best choices that way. Hadrian and I will work together with your Jokers to settle ourselves and make our circle work just the way it is. All of this is too new and unsettled for you to be worrying about adding more people to an incomplete circle. Your instincts probably wouldn't even allow you to think about it until we all have completed our bonds with you," Doyle told him calmly and with such conviction in his voice that Harry could not help but believe what he said. Harry looked up at where Hadrian was standing and the other Shadow Ace nodded that he agreed with Doyle.
"Thank you," Harry said with a gentle smile. "All of you, for giving me the freedom to choose."
"Like your Severus told you. Unless it puts your life in danger, you will always have a choice," Garrick replied.
"Now, how about we get dressed and get going about our day?" Zagan said with humor. Harry smiled at him and nodded. Kiran stood and held a hand out to Harry. He took the hand happily and let the Pareya lead him to the room to get dressed properly for the day.
"We are going to commission you some new clothes as well. Your wardrobe is severely lacking," Kiran said casually. Harry grimaced.
"I was never allowed to have new clothes. I was only every given Dudley's hand me downs and the first time I got new clothes I was eleven and it was school robes and a uniform," Harry explained. Kiran kissed his head and then smiled at him.
"We will fix it, Little Snake. You will only wear the nicest things made from the best quality of material. Salazar and Garrick helped to create Nevarah. They are very old and very respected," Kiran told him. Harry nodded. He understood and he was also really excited to finally have clothes that had been bought for him just because and not for school or something else.
"Ready," Harry called when he came back into the sitting room. There were a few chuckles around the room.
"Severus and Blaise are of course coming with us. Other than that, who is coming?" Salazar asked. Harry tucked himself up against the Alpha as the others decided.
"Frost and I will go with you as well as Zagan. The others will tend to their business. Then they will come and switch out with us, and we will tend to our business while they guard you," Doyle finally stated.
"I will go with you as well," Garrick said. "I can help with paperwork."
"Do you want to see what your parents are doing today and see if they want to go as well? They will need to register as well," Salazar asked. Harry beamed up at him. He would never pass on the opportunity to spend more time with his family. Getting to know them was something he was looking forward too.
"Can we port over, and see?" Harry asked excitedly.
"Of course, we can," Salazar said. "I would like for everyone to be home for dinner at least. If you don't finish up your business today, you can finish tomorrow." There were nods and sounds of agreement. "Perfect. Then let's move out. Those coming with us let's go." Then Sal swung Harry up into his arms and over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and strode through the house to the transportation room. Harry giggled the whole way there and was still giggling when they ported to his parents' house.
"Well, that is a lovely sound to hear," Harry heard a soft airy voice say. He could literally hear the smile in the voice. Pandora. Her voice was just like Luna's but more mature and motherly.
"Good morning, Mum," Harry said as Salazar settled him on his feet again. He went into Pandora's open arms and loved the way it felt to be hugged by her. It was so nice to have family who wanted him.
"Good morning, Love. What are you lot up to?" She asked as she led them all to the sitting room. The rest of his parental circle looked like they had been discussing something before they came in. Bella stood up with a bright grin and hurried over to wrap Harry in a hug.
"Morning, Darling," she said and held him tightly. Harry hugged her and happily let her tug him the rest of the way into the room and sat him down between Tom and Rodolphus. They each hugged him and greeted him. Remus came to the back of the couch and ruffled his hair.
"Hey, Pup. You look so happy," Remus said with a smile. Harry blushed and smiled back.
"I am happy," He said simply.
"I am so glad to hear it, Pup. You deserve it," Remus said and then took a seat next to Bellatrix.
"We all do, Remi," Harry said seriously.
"You are right of course, My Son," Tom said with a smile. "Now to what do we owe your early visit?"
"We are going to the registry to get permanent citizenship established and register our new circle. We wanted to see what your plans were and if you wanted to come along," Salazar answered. Harry looked up at Tom.
"We are also going to have lunch and explore the markets maybe go to the bank as well," Harry added. Tom smiled.
"All of that sounds like a great idea. Do you mind if the Malfoys join? They need to register and set up accounts as well," Tom asked Harry.
"I don't mind, Dad," Harry informed him. "Are all of you ready to go?"
"Just give us a few minutes to get everything together to go?" Tom asked Salazar.
"Of course," He said and the others moved to get things together to go. Bellatrix just scooted over and wrapped Harry back in her arms. Luna sat down on his other side, and he held her hand. The three of them talked quietly together. Getting to know more things about each other while they waited.
"Ok, we are all ready to go," Tom said as they came back into the room about ten minutes later. Harry went into Doyle's arms this time. The Shadow Ace just pulled him close and held him through the portal. They arrived at a large building and were led to an official that would take care of them. Tom and his circle were led to a different official, as were the Malfoys. This would get all of them taken care of quicker.
It took a few hours but eventually they were all official and permanent residents of Nevarah. They were registered Officially as the Slytherin Circle and Harry after a few questions happily changed his name to Slytherin since they were bonded for life and that, to Harry was much deeper than any muggle marriage. Severus and Blaise were not sure about changing theirs as of yet. Harry didn't mind and neither did Salazar. So, with his Alpha's arm wrapped around him he had walked into the registry a Black and walked out Harrison Serpens Slytherin, of the Slytherin Circle.
He was so happy as they sat down to lunch and talked about Nevarah and other things. They were going to go to the bank after lunch and settle accounts and then shop around a bit before heading back to their homes for dinner. Right after lunch Doyle, Frost, and Zagan were switched out with Wikhn, Jasper, and Dorrin. Harry had a wonderful day with his family and circle. Tomorrow they were going to send requests for a mentor and then after a few days of rest they were going to start teaching Harry to fly and learn all about his Shadow abilities. Harry didn't think he had ever been happier.
