harry's creature inheritance

talking, cuddling, and sleeping

Enrico's POV

I woke up a few hours later, cuddled between Arthur and Lucius, with Severus sitting at the end of the bed, watching us.
"You look so peaceful when you sleep," he said as I sat up.
"Thanks, I guess. Were you watching us this whole time?"
"No, I woke up about half an hour ago. Couldn't fall back asleep, so I moved to the end of the bed to give you more room. I was only watching you for about ten minutes. Gosh, I sound like such a creep," he chuckled.

"You're not a creep. Honestly, it kind of makes me feel safer knowing you're watching out for me."
"I'll always look out for you. You're one of my subs. And as crazy as it sounds, I'm starting to fall for all of you."
"Me too," I whispered.

At that moment, I felt Arthur start to stir and then wake up.
"How did you sleep?" I asked him.
"I slept well, thanks. How about you?"
"Good, thanks."

"It's strange to think that just twelve hours ago, we didn't even know we were mates," Arthur said, sitting up and turning to look at us.
Curious, I asked, "What creatures are you all? I want to know if I'm the only Neko—since they're pretty rare."

Severus spoke up first, "I'm a dominant vampire, and Lucius is a dominant Veela."
Arthur smiled softly, "I'm a submissive elf."

"You can probably tell by my ears and tail, but I'm a submissive Neko," I said.

In his sleep, Lucius pulled Arthur and me closer, making us lie back down. I giggled, cuddling closer to him.
"Dominant Veela are protective of their subs," Severus explained with a slight laugh. "He won't let you go until he wakes up. Even then, he might still be reluctant."

Time skip brought to you by a sleeping Veela...

After an hour of talking and cuddling, Lucius woke up, gently letting Arthur and me go.
A few minutes later, we heard a soft knock on the door. My dad walked in, holding a letter in his hand...
