For the greater good #2

I'm sorry for the lateness guys, but I've got my second dose of Pfizer on Monday and I felt like shit through Monday and also yesterday, I couldn't even write, I've felt a little weak today too, but I managed to write this, please, enjoy it!

Chapter #2: There's no other way

Nymphadora was stunned and she also was confused, she was thinking that she probably heard wrong what Lily had just told her, they’re currently in the house’s living room, Harry is sleeping for the moment, and he’s recovering from the excess of magic that he presented a few hours ago.

But Nymphadora didn’t worry too much about it, she knew that Harry was going to overcome this, it wasn’t going to be the first time that he was going to do that in the week, the thing that was worrying her will come the moment he wakes up and she knew that.

Lily, his mother, has come with a solution to solve the problem that Harry was facing, and it was making the metamorph feel a little weird, she wasn’t expecting the redhead to be this bold with her proposal, she told her that they needed to have sex with Harry.

And to be honest, the mere thought of it was kind of weird for Nymphadora, she was having problems trying to understand the logic the older woman was following to come up with a conclusion like this, but the redhead has been completely focused on making sure that Harry is fine, so, they haven’t had the chance to talk about that proposal.

Nymphadora felt a little weird, she knew that she told Lily that she would do anything she could to make sure that Harry recovers, but she wasn’t expecting things to get at this point, she was expecting another kind of thing and frankly she didn’t know if she wanted to do this or not.

Harry is handsome, that is a fact, many girls have told her about it, many of her female colleagues always told her that she was lucky that she knew the guy from a young age, it was weird for Nymphadora to hear women of her age and older ones talk about Harry like that.

But Nymphadora couldn’t deny the fact that the younger man was handsome, with his unruly raven messy hair, his bright emerald eyes, his height, and his pale skin, and also, add to that the fact that he’s an incredible person, always eager to help others in any way he can, he’s a charming person, Nymphadora admits that.

This week that they had spent together has brought many new things to Nymphadora, she started to know more and more about Harry and the things that he rarely lets other people see, she felt grateful that he was showing her a side that he rarely let other people know about.

The metamorph was completely immersed in her thoughts, she remained in silence sitting on the couch that she didn’t realize that another person was in the room, Lily finally came back.

- Don’t worry Dora… He’ll be fine – Lily said with a soft expression.

And suddenly, Nymphadora shook her head as she got back to reality, she stared at the older woman for a few moments, and then she smiled at her, it was a weak smile though.

- That’s… Great – Said the metamorph trying as best to hide her nervousness.

Lily stared at the young witch for a few moments, trying to find what was happening with her at the moment, and then, Lily remembered what she told her the moment Harry fainted, the redhead couldn’t help but sight.

Lily walked slowly towards Nymphadora and then, she sat by her right side, neither of them said something, there was a silence that wasn’t uncomfortable but at the same time, felt weird, they knew that they had to talk about it, after all, this involved Harry’s safety and health, so, Lily was the first one to sight.

- I’m sorry Nymphadora… For asking you to do something like that… I know it was too sudden, so… - Lily tried to explain herself and Nymphadora shook her head negatively at the older redhead's words.

- D-Don’t worry Lily… Everything’s fine, it’s not like I’m scared of having sex but… You need to understand that talking about that with persons that I'm close it’s kind of weird – Nymphadora tried to explain herself.

- I know what you mean… Trust me, I was in the heat of the moment when I said those words, frankly, I didn’t even consider the fact that I was going to commit incest with my son – Dora nodded at Lily’s words, that was strange too but no so much.

After all, Nymphadora has blood from the Black family, they remained as purebloods for centuries and as Nymphadora indulged, many relationships were kind of weird, the founders of the family were mother and son, so, hearing about Lily talking about stuff like that didn’t surprise Nymphadora too much, incest in the wizarding world is not seen as weird just like in the muggle world, that’s why it’s hard for wizards and muggles to get along with, their differences in beliefs has made this to be difficult.

- Don’t worry Lily… You know that my family has some kind of… Weird fixation towards incest – Nymphadora said a little uncomfortable to talk about that.

Lily just giggled at her, and Nymphadora couldn’t help but smile too, the older woman was beautiful, there was no point for her to deny that, it was the truth, the older woman was very popular amongst teachers and students, even to this day it is said that Snape was still in love with her, but for some reason, Lily always declined invitations from other men, she was completely focused on raising Harry and that made Nymphadora respect the older woman.

But it also made her feel bad because Nymphadora had a crush on the redhead when she was studying at Hogwarts, she always loved her potions class, it was her favorite during that time and surprisingly, she managed to amaze the redhead, even her mom was surprised that Nymphadora could apply herself to something that wasn’t "defense against the dark arts" or quidditch.

Yes, that’s the charm of Lily Potter, she was quite convinced that if women fell for her easily even those pureblood enthusiasts were in love with her, they were just too afraid to admit it, their prejudices were stronger than that.

- Nymphadora… Are you okay? – Asked Lily as she tried to get the younger woman’s attention.

And Nymphadora quickly shook her head for a few moments, she got back to reality and felt embarrassed that Lily had to see her acting like this.

- Oh I’m sorry… I was just spacing out – Dora said calmly and Lily nodded.

There was an uncomfortable silence once again, they knew that they had to resume what they were talking about before, but that didn’t make things easier for them, they tried to deny what was going to happen but it was impossible, a war was on its way and if Harry was unprepared, they were quite convinced that they wouldn’t survive this, Voldemort could win easily.

- Lily… Why do you think that we need to have sex with Harry to… Uh… You know? So he could be able to control his powers? – Nymphadora was concerned about the raven-haired man, and even if she was embarrassed to talk about this, she knew that there wasn’t any time to feel shame or anything like that, they needed to hurry up if they wanted to have a chance to win against that monster.

Lily remained in silence, she was trying to think of a way to explain this without sounding too pretentious, she wanted to explain herself so Nymphadora could see it as more than a theory that Lily made up from some stories from the past.

- You know that I love history, right Dora? – Asked the older woman and the bluenette nodded, she was surprised that someone would like that subject – It’s interesting the things that you can find once you explore our rich history – Lily said and Dora nodded, she didn’t know where Lily was getting into, though – I think that you feel confused and that’s fine Dora, there’s a part of our history that the government is always trying to hide, a part that’s wild and related to ancient times and today those things would be considered primitive – Dora was surprised to hear those words.

- Really? But why? – The bluenette was getting more and more confused but that just made the older woman smile softly at her as she caressed the younger woman’s cheeks.

- Because our government plans to make us act more and more like muggles… And at the same time, we consider muggles primitive, it’s just that they have some nice things that it’s quite a scandal that such primitive creatures could have, that’s why… They don’t want us to be like muggles but they want to take what makes muggles different from us, you have to remember that our minister is always dealing with muggle politicians, so, it’s obvious that during those reunions, we might look as if we’re still in medieval times! – Lily explained and Dora nodded – Well, I’m getting far from the point, as I was telling you before… I’ve been studying history for years, and the thing that has caught my attention when it comes to our history, is the important characters – Lily stared directly at Nymphadora’s eyes, it was as if they were back to school once again.

- Like Merlin, Slytherin, and all those guys? – Nymphadora questioned and Lily nodded.

- Exactly, you just told me a name that I’ve been studying with a lot of interest… The strongest wizard of all time that is even considered as a replacement of the muggle concept of "god"… Merlin – Dora nodded at the enthusiasm in Lily’s words.

- And what did you find about him that could be related to us? – Dora was getting more and more immersed in this talk.

- Well, our dear Merlin, being the strongest wizard of his time… He had all the liberty to do whatever thing he wanted, many of the spells that we use today were developed by him and as you know… Sometimes you need to put in practice those things with other beings – Lily nodded at Nymphadora who gulped at the thought – But Merlin was also fitting the standards of his time about what “a real man” truly is… That means that he was a womanizer – Nymphadora blushed while Lily just giggled.

- Really? – Dora was surprised to hear that, they never talk about that during the lessons of the history of magic.

- Yes, and that wasn’t all… It is confirmed that he even had a harem, he traveled around the world, his purpose was to take the best women from around the world and make them his wives… Of course, he never forced them, during those times, a man just needed to be powerful, and having harems was completely legal for important figures… That’s why today those things are considered primitive – Explained Lily and Nymphadora didn’t know what to say.

The younger woman remained in silence as she thought about those things, she was trying to figure out what the redhead was trying to tell her as she was talking to her about the history of the most important wizard of all time.

- There are also some writings about Merlin’s earliest years… It seems that he was too powerful that he killed his parents when he was a baby… But as he grew up he managed to control his magic little by little… I don’t want to sound arrogant, but I think that my theory is that the fact that he was a womanizer helped him to solve that problem… It’s not a casualty that those incidents with his magic started to disappear when he entered into his teenage years – Dora nodded, now all made sense.

- Then… That means… That Harry is as strong as Merlin? – Asked the metamorph and Lily couldn’t help but smile at her.

- Well… I can't assure you that he will be as great as him…But my son… He holds an amazing power, you know? I’ve seen him manifesting that trait since he was a baby – Lily chuckled as she remembered those times – And it’s also prophesized my boy, barely a man… Will stand equally against a wizard that no one has managed to defeat for more than fifty years… Not even Dumbledore – Lily explained with pride on her words.

Dora remained in silence, she was trying to analyze Lily’s words and she couldn’t help but agree with her, Harry was too young to face this, and yet… Prophecies were telling them that he was supposed to fight that dark wizard, he was going to make a sacrifice for everyone, and as Nymphadora thought more about Harry.

She couldn’t help but feel pity for him, in case he died fighting for everyone, she was going to feel bad for him because he isn’t going to be able to experience love, fail in relationships just like she had many times in the past, she was convinced that he won’t have sex, he would die as a virgin and that was the cherry on the cake, she had enough, she needed to do something to ease the pain for him and at least if this doesn’t work, he’ll have nice memories that maybe will motivate him to fight until the end.

- Mrs. Potter… Lily… You know what are you doing, right? – Asked Nymphadora with a smirk on her face.

Lily wasn’t expecting those words, it was a heavy statement to know what they were trying to do, she was practically offering herself to her son, and also, she was offering her son to Nymphadora who didn’t stop smirking.

- What you’re doing is… Quite an honor Lily – Nymphadora was now smiling softly at the older woman whose eyes widened – I accept… Harry is a wonderful person and if I need to do this so he could get stronger… I’ll do it – Nymphadora smiled at Lily.

- A-Are you sure about it… You will even have to… Do it… With me... Too – Lily stuttered, a little embarrassed.

Nymphadora smirked, she was liking the way the older woman was acting right now, she was doing it just like Dora thought she acted during situations like this.

- Yes… I’m sure about this – Nymphadora said before she slammed her lips against Lily’s ones.

The redhead was caught by surprise by this action and it took her some time to get used to this, but once she did it, she kissed back the younger woman and they started to fight for dominance, they were even moaning through the kiss, they were so focused that they didn’t hear another presence getting into the living room.

- Mom!? Dora!? What are you doing!? – Harry was scandalized about this.

He wasn’t expecting to find his mother and Nymphadora kissing so fiercely like they were doing it right now, the two women stopped kissing and the metamorph sent the redhead a knowing look, it was time for Lily to talk about this, that didn’t mean that it was going to be easy, though.
