It had been a week since they returned home. Harry was odly affectionate with Louis, perhaps he felt like the small boy deserved more attention than normal in this hard time. Or maybe he was just in love.

Yeah, he was certainly in love.

"Lou babe, come here." Harry muttered as he motioned with his hand. He rubbed his temple, pushing his desk chair back. Louis, whose desk was still in Harry's office, smiled at the attention walking towards the man and gracfully planted his ass on the vampire's lap.

"Hi." Louis whispered, leaning up with pouty lips, Harry of course ganted him a kiss.

"I thought we, you might want to meet my clan tonight."

Louis was aware of the term clan. Many vampires lived their lives alone and with just the company of their soul mate. However, more often than not, vampires joined clans - huge groups with heirachy, usually extending many generations. He knew of the Styles Clan, suppossidly one of the most powerful clans in the world.

Louis had always wondered where the Styles clan lived, and why Harry didn't board with them. Because, Louis' knowledge of clans suggests that they generally live in one huge, well, mansion!

"Where? I mean, don't you usually live with your clan?"

Harry nods, "yeah, and I used to live with them, all other members of my clan - excluding Liam, live in Birchwood, a town over, there is a huge place their which houses all 300 of us." Louis' eyes widened how big was this 'place'. 300 was enough people to fill a street, maybe more.

"Why don't you live with them Hazza?" Louis asked making himself comfortable by resting his cheek against the vampire's shoulder. Harry leant down to press a chaste kiss to his forehead. Softly petting this innocent boys thigh.

"I find great pleasure in the solitude at my own residence, after growing up with 300 other vampires...."

Louis frowned, "do I annoy you by disturbing your solitude?"

Harry smiled, easily manhandling Louis so he was stradling him, "oh baby, solitude has never seamed so displeasurable, when the possibility of being with you for the rest of my life is on the table."

Louis giggled as the vampire used a fancy tone as he speaked.

"Haz, I love you."

Harry just smiled pressing a kiss to Louis' soft lips, "meet my clan, formally, my family."

Louis nodded with a tiny smile, "okay."

----

Harry's 'huge place' where his clan lived, was an understatment. This 'huge place' was an actual palace fit for royalty. Louis wonderd why it was so far away, when now he understands - it was the size of an actual suburb.

"Wow... this is, huge!" Louis awed as Harry pulled into the palace like residence, the huge pond in the middle creating a clear, almost circular driveway.

Harry chuckled as he offered Louis a hand and he stood out of the car, "come, let us get out of the sun." 

Louis giggled, unlike many films suggest, vampires didn't burn in the sun, they had adapted out of that phase. However, Harry always said that when the sun shone bright on his skin, a small heated sensation, which he clearly wasn't fond of, ran throughout his body.

"Does, your clan know i'm coming?" Louis asked, as Harry and he began to walk towards one of the many doors.

Harry nodded, "yes I called them all into our banquet hall, I have also told them of the prophechy. I hope this will not anger you?"

Harry searched Louis' eyes for any displeasure, however the small boy merley smiled and nodded, "i'm gald, I didn't really want to have to answer questions of who, what, when, where and why. I already did that in English papers."

Harry chuckled, placing his hand on the small of Louis' back, "they won't ask questions, I promise. Now please stay close. Some of the members of my clan are... well, how do I say, not use to treating humans as friends."

Louis' eyes widened in worry, walking closer than ever next to Harry. They soon found themselves greeted by Liam. Louis smiled, hugging the vampire who he was quickly becoming close with.

"Liam." Harry nodded at the second in charge. 

The bruette ruffled Louis' hair, "come in guys, everybody is seated in the banquet hall anticipaiting your arrival."

And when Louis finally made it into said banquet hall, he was shocked. The longest table he had ever seen seated what Louis presumed, was all 300 members of Harry's clan. The vampires all stood as they clapped. Harry laughed softly, playfully waving his hand shushing them all as he lead Louis to the seat at the top of the table. There were five seats. Harry sat in the middle, with Louis to his right. Liam sat next to Louis and next to Harry was Anne, his mother, who he had met briefly.

"Thank you all for coming today, I understand we are all very busy people." Everyone chuckled, "I also know, it was a shock when I discovered that, my beautiful mate, was human." A chorus of hums was heard around the room.

Louis stared at Harry fondly, the man spoke up again, "but I want to thank each and everyone of you for letting him enter our home and hopefully, accepting him as family."

Louis blushed red as a cheering circled around the room, Liam leant over to him whispering a small, "don't be nervous, Harry speaks so highly of you to everyone, they love you before even meeting you."

Harry of course heard, even a whisper in a loud room can't get past a vampire's ears. But he couldn't argue, because it was the most true statment in the world.

----

Louis was enjoying himself sitting on one of the couches with Liam next to him, Harry but a foot away laughing away with Gemma.

That's when a vampire, who he hadn't been introduced to was using super speed to zoom close to him. Louis gasped as the vampire whispered a small, "boo!"

Taking a step back the still unnamed vampire laughed as he, held out a hand, "Andy.... and you are the star of the party, Louis. What a fine, little piece of meat. Would love to taste."

Liam growled, "Andy. Back off."

The vampire laughed pulling Louis to his feet as he held Louis' hand, he forceffuly spun the boy in a circle, Louis ended with his back against the vampire, and Andy's nose in his neck. His heart beat fast, eyes full of fright.

"What? Harry's left him this little weak thing. Might as well have a snack. That human food we ate really didn't hit the spot. But this...." He smelt at Louis' neck, "what blood type are you darling, A? No AB negative right? Well, now that would hit the spot".

Harry finally turned around after hearing Louis' heart beat begin to race at an abnormal speed, "Andy... Let him go, now."

Harry growled, eyes a red, as he stood next to Liam, arms crossed an muscels buldging, "and what fun would that be Mr Harold."

The CEO glared, using his own super speed to pull Andy off the tiny human, twisting his arm in a painful direction, "I thought we had a little chat before today Andy. What happened to your promise of no touching, no looking and definitly no tasting." Harry muttered, throwing the vampire on the floor.

By now a crowd had formed around Liam, Louis, Harry and Andy.

Louis was in Liam's arms as Harry stared down at the vampire he had just forced to the floor.

Andy laughed, "oh Harry, I can't help if I like my food running scared."

Harry's eyes turned black, he stared at Andy with a blank expression, "Liam take Louis home please."

Liam hesitated but Harry's voice prompted his movement, "now!"

Holding Louis close he began to walk towards the exit, with one last word to his boss and best friend, "don't do something you will regret."

Harry glanced Liam a look, "oh I won't regret this."

Louis could only push himself closer to Liam and hope Harry wouldn't hurt himself.
