"How is Sirius?" Harry asked as he entered the house along with Tonks floating behind him. If Tonks had to say what she loved the most among everything Harry had taught her yesterday, then her answer would be floating. She had taken a liking to it in an instant as she was not as clumsy as she usually was while floating in the air.
However, at the same time, Tonks was slightly miffed at Harry for not teaching her how to float until yesterday…
"He is sleeping right now. I have already removed the Curse from him so there is nothing to worry about" Narcissa answered with a small smile on her face, earning a satisfied nod from Harry. "Can I talk to my sister now?" Narcissa asked in a hopeful tone. Even though Bellatrix was a certified lunatic, she was still her sister.
"Yes, she is lying outside. You can talk to her but don't get too close to her" Harry decided to warn her as he knew that being careless around someone like Bellatrix was never a good thing. While the woman was not a threat to him, it wasn't the same case for someone like Narcissa who was not even a fighter to begin with.
Bellatrix was easily stronger than any Witch he had ever seen including Jacklyn. With the Elder Wand in her possession, Jacklyn would be able to wipe the floor with the woman, but without the Elder Wand and access to his Magic, she would lose ten out of ten times. Maybe, only Katerina would be able to match the woman since Katerina was back in her prime.
"You don't have to remind me…" Narcissa answered smoothly as she knew just how dangerous her sister was. There was nothing her sister wasn't willing to do if it meant she could escape and return to her precious Dark Lord. "I would be able to wake her up with a Renervate, right?" Narcissa asked as she raised her brows at him.
"Yes" Harry answered simply.
With her question answered, Narcissa decided to leave after giving him a grateful nod… After Narcissa was gone, Harry turned toward Tonks and beckoned her to come closer.
"How are you feeling?" Harry asked as he pulled her closer when she was close enough to him.
Tonks gave him an unsure look before she shrugged her shoulders. "Come on, talk to me… I know I am kind of weird and not everyone can be as callous as me. It is nothing to be ashamed of… I think it makes you more human than me" Harry said softly as he caressed her cheek and Tonks looked outraged at his words.
"Don't say that! You are a better human than a lot of people out there!" Tonks gushed out zealously while glaring at him.
"I am glad you think that, but let's not kid ourselves… Most of the people out there, including some of my own followers, think that I am a monster" Harry retorted with a small smile.
"Fuck them! They don't know anything and you are not a monster!" Tonks denied his words vehemently, making Harry chuckle at her words.
"Well, there is still no denying that I am different from others. I didn't feel anything except satisfaction when I killed for the first time, but considering my first kill was my Aunt, I don't think it counts. Now, let's try again… How are you feeling?" Harry asked as he looked straight into her eyes, making her flush at his caring words and caring gesture.
"... I don't know…" Tonks finally answered after a moment of silence. "To be honest, I don't know how to feel. At first, I felt sick, then I was glad that I was able to put a monster like him off the streets" Tonks revealed while feeling somewhat vulnerable.
"Are you still feeling sick?" Harry asked softly as he led toward a chair, but instead of letting her sit on it, he took the seat before pulling her onto his lap. Her hair turned slightly red before she snuggled into his arms feeling comfortable.
"No, not really" Tonks denied after taking a deep breath.
"Then that's it. You said it yourself, didn't you? You were glad that you were able to put someone like him off the streets. Maybe, you should concentrate on that?" Harry suggested helpfully, earning a solemn nod from the woman in his arms. "Look, to be honest, I have no idea how you are feeling right now, but I will be there to support you whenever you need me" Harry said softly as he started to pat her head.
Tonks practically wanted to melt into his arms with how she was feeling and even though his words might seem somewhat uncaring, she could understand where he was coming from and he was willing to support her if she needed it… That was more than enough for her…
"I love you…" Tonks mumbled while staring straight into his eyes.
"I love you too…" Harry said softly before capturing her lips and soon the two of them were making out while finding comfort in each other…
"Ahem!" The two of them finally stopped when they heard someone cough. Harry turned to the side and gave Narcissa an irritated look as Tonks practically jumped out of his arms. Tonks blushed brightly as her hair turned completely red in embarrassment. "Sorry for bothering the two of you, but I wanted to tell you that I was done" Narcissa finally explained.
"Really?" Harry asked as he inclined his head. To be honest, he was so lost in the kiss that he had no idea how much time had passed, but he didn't want to say it like that.
"Well, she was not in the mood for a chat so I simply silenced her and bid her farewell for the last time" Narcissa explained with a sigh. She wasn't expecting to have a cordial conversation with her sister in the first place, but she was hoping that they could at least have a chat. However, Bellatrix was acting like a raving lunatic unwilling to listen to anything, so Narcissa was forced to silence the woman so that she could convey her words.
"I see…" Harry muttered as he stood up and smoothed his robes. "Then I am going to hand over Bellatrix and Rodolphus to Augusta" Harry explained his next course of action.
"When are you going to kill Lucius?" Narcissa asked with a frown.
"I can do it tonight if you want" Harry answered without missing a beat. After tonight, the Dark Lord and his forces were not going to be a problem for anyone, so sending off Lucius along with the rest of his buddies would be quite fitting.
"Alright. I will have Draco knocked out so that you can Obliviate him" With that, Narcissa decided to head inside the house, leaving Tonks and Harry alone.
"I will meet you later, I have some loose ends to deal with" Harry explained as he placed a brief kiss on her lips and then he was gone…
