Chapter 36: Chapter 35: Veela Life Debt
"Veela Life debt?" Harry asked looking at his headmaster
"Please explain?" Harry asked as Dumbledore looked at both Mr. and Mrs. Delacour who gave the headmaster a nod in confirmation to explain to the boy about a Veela Life debt.
"Harry, when you saved Gabrielle from the lake today, you created a Veela Life Debt Bond. This is different from your average Life Debt, You saving her has caused some ancient magic to activate within her." Dumbledore explained as the boy looked from Dumbledore to Gabrielle.
"How is it different?" Harry asked looking at the headmaster.
"Arry, Veela magic is very strong. Gabrielle and Fleur are not quarter-Veela as you might think. There is no such thing as a quarter-Veela, it is a trait passed from generation to generation." Explained Mr. Delacour this time with the boy locking his green eyes at him listening to him.
"Veela magic takes Life Debts very seriously. They can only form under a certain set of circumstances." He would add as Dumbledore looked ready to talk again
"Those circumstances would be that: the Veela must be in actual danger of death, the rescuer must recognize that, and the rescuer's heart must be pure." Dumbledore explained
"Meaning?" Harry asked with a brow raised.
"Arry, you must have not expected or wanted any reward for you helping Gabrielle. So the magic grants you it's own reward, in Gabrielle.' The Bond will begin to change her, in to what you want, she is yours." Mrs. Delacour would say with Harry's eyes widening in surprise making sure he did not misheard what she just said.
"Wait, what do you mean "she's mine"?" He asks still not getting this. With Fleur looking at him. Gabrielle continued to look at her now soul mate.
Hermione and Ginny were both silent as they listened and paid attention of what was being said.
"Arry, Veela Life Debt is as old as our race. In essence, Gabrielle will feel a significant debt to you, one that cannot be released. It is a relationship that supports both of you. She loves and serves you and you protect her." Mrs Delacour would say as Harry looked from her to Gabrielle who smiled at Harry.
"Are you saying what I think you are implying?" Harry had said now trying to understand as both his tenants in his mindscape listened to this as well.
The adults in the room all nodded.
"Exactly. Mr. Potter, You and Gabrielle in a way are magically married in a way and the bond that you created activated an ancient magic." Says Maxine
"But wasn't Gabrielle 8? Why does she look old enough to look 14 or 15?" Said Harry with the adults in the room looking at him.
"It seems the bond has something to do with her appearance." Said Blaze the Phoenix within Harry's mind.
"Because Harry. The bond altered her appearance . The ancient magic we mentioned had something to do with her now older appearance how do the muggles say it? Growth spurt or puberty? It's one of those, it's safe to say that miss Gabrielle is 15 years of age from the looks of it." Dumbledore would explain.
"So now what?" Harry asks looking at Gabrielle
"Arry. She's our sister wife now. Gabrielle always had a crush on you. Please open up to her." Fleur would say in a whisper towards Harry Potter as he looked from her to Gabrielle.
"Go with it Harry. She's now apart of our family now." Toxine says within his mindscape
He mentally sighed, he seriously did not want to force this on Gabrielle but now it can't be helped because of the bond and he has to comply to it.
"Hang on. I can't help but ask." He says with the adults giving him a forward look.
"What happens if I well... reject the bond..." He says with Gabrielle looking hurt by that as Dumbledore, along with The Delacour parents gave Harry a stern look even Fleur looked taken back by that.
"I'm just asking I'm not intending on rejecting it, I'm just curious?" He asks.
"Arry, if you reject the bond which could be your choice, but know this. It will not only insult the Veela but will render the said Veela to never love again should her Chosen bond mate reject her bond with him or her." Mr. Delacour explained with Harry now understanding that and looked at Gabrielle.
"Then I'll treat her well like I have with Fleur and the others." He says with Gabrielle now running to him and hugging him as he hugged her back.
"I'm glad you understand how important this is Mr. Potter, again you have saved my youngest daughter's life and for that I thank you." Says Mr. Delacour as Harry nodded.
It's official, Gabrielle Delacour is now Harry Potter's bond mate and is in a way his wife due to the bond.
As our boy along with his girls decide to leave and go meet up with the rest.
( chamber of secrets)
Harry indeed returned as he spent the rest of the evening with his girls along with Gabrielle including. Fleur and Hermione had to explain why Gabrielle is with them now, in which they accepted.
Well two tasks finished. Now it's the third task. In which he will have to prepare himself for.
He decides to take a rest as he laid down.
As he slept, the potion he drank wore off, his whole upper body had turned scaly blue with more red feathers growing, his nails lengthened pointy and sharp, his lower body, his legs half scaly and with half red feathers, his feet became bird like talons with sharp claws. His teeth were now sharp fangs. Around the collar of his neck red feathers made themselves known. His arms started becoming full scaly with red feathers growing.
He unknowingly opened his eyes which now glowed a much brighter yellow color.
He gave a slight growl of a mixture of a Phoenix trill and basilisk growl which sounded more beast like.
In about an hour later he woke up and went to the bathroom only to be shocked by his appearance his face now scaly blue. As he eyed his appearance. He noticed his feet were now talon like.
He drank the potion Snape gave him and started to look like his regular self. Only thing that remained was his eyes that now returned to normal and were green and snake like.
"My evolution is increasing..." He says
"And it's near complete. We can feel the change in your body." Added Toxine
"What happens if I fully evolve?" He asked looking at his nails as both of his tenants were silent
"Once complete, your transformation will be permanent, no potion won't even alter or change your appearance." Blaze said.
"I see..." He mentally sighed
He decided to leave the chamber of secrets to go see his mates and bondmate.
