I don't know why, but Harry waking up to Draco thrusting into him is extremely hot. o.o The rape? Not so much. I think I've probably said this several times but stupid Draco! Leaving Harry all by himself. That's unacceptable, especially when Harry gets pregnant. Where's Hermione and her shovel when you need her?

I really liked how this chapter changed perspectives. It's nice to get Harry and Draco's perspective on things. It makes things a lot more interesting. And it serves Draco right, Harry not getting pregnant yet, though I have to admit, I'm rather proud that he somehow gets permission before putting his prick in Harry's... feminine assets. It's touching, him not wanting their child conceived in rape. Draco has some morals intact, at least. He should really extend his boundaries a little. He could use a bit more sensitivity. And learn about the dynamics of a working relationship, the moron. I think Harry would be quite a bit more receptive of intercourse if Draco was nicer, gentler, more thoughtful.

This just came to my mind. Draco seems to expect respect, affection, and submission from Harry. But he can't just keep taking and taking and taking, or Harry will grow to resent him even more. Draco needs to show Harry some respect, affection, thoughtfulness, some signs of love, or that he cares, if he wants a serious relationship in which Harry participates, responds, and reciprocates. If he can do that, then Harry is more likely to fall in love with him... or something of that nature.

Don't know what it is about this story... but it somehow inspired me to draw a preggy Harry with a popsicle and a hand on his belly. Theeennn... I'm not entirely sure what happened, but the popsicle became a lollipop (probably because of my lousy perception of spatial relationships), and he's now holding a bloody machete while looking sinfully innocent. Did I mention the severed head that for some reason resembles Voldemort? Must have something to do with unresolved issues and too much caffiene. But right now it's in Photoshop and I'm trying to beautify it, a.k.a. clean it up, erase stray lines, darken the other lines, add color, etc. Hopefully it'll be done within the next decade? Anyway, it made me happy and when it's finished I'm so sending it to you.

And I wouldn't be a good reviewer if I didn't include the punchline: good chapter, write more!

Draco wouldn't let Severus back into his home, would he?
Great chapter!

Wow this story is really coming along. i love it so far and cant what to read more. please add of to yous mailing list. tholmes38at hot mail.

Wow I am sooo in love with this story, it is the perfect mix of pain, laughter, romance and everything else in the known universe! You are a fantastic writer and I nearly had a fit when I saw that you updated so recently!!! I never find works in progress that are still actually being WORKED ON! I love you and I think we should get married, I think Canada still allows it. <3

I agree with Kora Draco needs to learn a valueable lesson it is obvious that he loves Harry but he doesn't realize it I think he still feels hurt from Harry's rejection their first year which is pathetic. I also think that Draco is confused he has never known love because of his parents and all the torture he witnessed because of the Death Eaters. He can't express his emotions in a healthy and I think that is going to cause his downfall. Maybe Harry can teach him to love at a great cost to himself. Maybe Draco will realize in time to save Harry. No one can tell and thats what makes this story so great you make the character's flaws real, you don't have Draco learn this important lesson right away you have him take longer making this inner growth more realistic

I think that the best way to make your story even more realistic is using some real world problems. One thing you may want to look up is stockholm syndrome. I think it may work really well with your future telling of harry's enslavement and his reactions to it day by day. Also I think that realistically victims who suffer from rape usually cannot sustain a healthy relationship in the future especially with said rapist so I think giving harry and draco a happy ending in this type of scenario is unrealistic. Also if/when harry concieves, no matter how much he may love or not love said child, and no matter what outcome draco and harrys relationship has whenever harry will look at that child he will remember that child was conceived during a horrid time in his life.

Your story is really good so far but I don't know if the reactions from harrys friend towards draco and giving him presents on christmas was very again, realtisic. Other than that I cant wait to read more. keep up the awesome work.

Soooo need chapter 11!!!

I can't believe Draco's so /blind/. I suppose it hasn't fully sunk in yet that although he may get the children he wants, he won't get to keep Harry because Voldemort's going to /kill/ him! As in, dead, deceased, six feet under, kicking the bucket, etc. *thwacks Draco upside the head* Wake up, you moron! You stay in Voldemort's service and you will eventually lose everything you care for. Idiot, not realizing that sooner... denial's a lovely thing, ain't it? It would be nice if he could /stop/ fluctuating between extremes, one minute caring for Harry and the next beating him. Bipolar, much?! And I don't know about you, but if I were Harry, I'd do anything and everything to keep Voldemort from taking my child as his obedient whore, collar be damned, commit suicide if nothing else worked (a sharp object to the abdomen isn't a bad idea, either, if that would thwart them a little longer). No one would touch /my/ child, thank you very much, even if it meant it died with me. Screw the whole wizarding world, Voldemort, Draco Malfoy, the Death Eaters, the Order. Harry's been through enough; let someone else play hero and kill Voldemort.

It makes me wonder how exactly Draco's going to get them out of this, if he will at all. Part of me wishes he'd come to his senses and go to the Order, then woo Harry properly (that also includes a great deal of groveling for forgiveness), or sacrifice himself to save Harry and their child. Another wants to relish in his anguish after their child is born and Voldemort kills Harry. It would serve him right, it would, to see parts of Harry in his child, haunting him, taunting him, reminding him of everything he lost. Then the prospect of the Potter-Malfoy offspring either rebelling or finding out about his/her "mother," how Harry died, and exacting revenge in Harry's name is too sweet not to cross the mind. Oh, the possibilities... personally, Malfoy better get Harry out of there before their child is born or /I'll/ borrow that shovel from Hermione and make him suffer!

Oh, wow... I didn't quite plan to rant like that... I guess it stirred some feelings about injustice and that innate maternal instinct a girl has whether she has a child, is pregnant, or not. Not to mention Draco, Harry, and Voldemort aren't real (too bad), but who else am I going to vent at? Not at all implying that you're portraying them bad or anything, because they're remarkably in character to jive with the storyline. The characters can just be a bit irritating... okay, enough rambling, I'll get back on track: awesome story. Really, I mean it. It's certainly an unique approach to the Harry-is-captured-and-held-prisoner-by-Voldemort plot bunny. The differing perspectives of the characters are pleasantly varied and we get to read some about what's happening outside Malfoy Manor, with the Order and all. Kudos to Ron for the splendid white ferret plush. It was a thoughtful gift and quite appropriate, too. ^_^ Oh, and the book of the Chudley Cannons. I could picture Draco's reaction rather vividly. So sweet, all that passive aggressiveness in gift-form; it's really clever.

Hope to read more soon, I'm dying to know the aftermath of Christmas' events. You know, I hope that if Harry gets those annoying, violent mood swings from pregnancy, Draco is hit frequently in the crossfire. Spontaneous morning sickness when it's not morning to ruin some of those fancy robes of his... Oh, and with Harry pregnant, that certainly limits the extent of punishments Draco can exact on Harry without potentially harming the unborn child, wouldn't it? Revenge, I can smell it! There's nothing scarier than an unhappy pregnant woman -- or hermaphrodite, in Harry's case. Ciao, until next chapter!

Poor Harry! Though I can certainly understand why he placates Draco with his submission, it hurts to see him lose his spirit. Rape is one of the worst, if not /the/ worst, violation of the mind, body, and soul. Maybe sometime in the future, Malfoy will make love to him, instead of raping him. Being gentle certainly seems to stifle most of Harry's rebellion; at this point, I can't even conceive Harry falling for Draco in the slightest until Draco ceases acting like a slavedriver and becomes more like a lover than a master, and Harry a responsive participant that gives as much as he takes. Perhaps with time? And Draco must be a lot more gentle as Harry progresses in the pregnancy; wouldn't want a miscarriage or anything from physical or emotional stress. Talk about karma biting you in the butt. I know Harry will be a wonderful mother figure for his children, but Draco as a father? That's rather scary. I can just see all the mini-Lucius's running around, whacking/molesting people with sticks. Here's to Draco /not/ being another Lucius. Cheers!

Ahh, the aftermath... well, so much for the pregnancy /not/ taking. Sex twice (or three times, including anal?) in twenty-four hours definitely doesn't decrease the chances. I must resist the urge not to cut off Draco's manhood and shove it up his own arse -- that would not be good for public relations... Still, a bitchy Potter during pregnancy is retribution enough, for now. I can just hear all the raging Harry'll do when he goes into labor, swearing castration and skewered testicles... Draco, you better do your part as a father and help Harry with the baby, you know, step up and take some responsibility? Feed him/her in the middle of the night so Harry can get that much needed rest? /You/ try carrying a parasite in your gut for nine months, you bleached poodle. Oh my, unborn babies really are parasitic in nature, aren't they? Taking blood and nutrients from the mother? Not giving much back except obscure cravings, severe abdominal cramps, and spontaneous vomiting? Now /that's/ something I haven't thought about.

Eep, rambling again! It's absolutely spiffy to read another chapter. I'll probably go back and read it again. Wonderful writing, excellent portrayal, thought-provoking, emotion-provoking, inspirational. Definitely one of my favorite fanfics in the history of Harry Potter fanfiction. To Alania Black, for turning a common and overdone plot bunny into an unique writing/reading experience~may your muse prove fruitful and imagination unending! Ooh, a Mailing List?! *whacks herself for not noticing sooner* That's /genius/. Please, Almighty Mistress of Harry Potter fanfiction, do sign me up. I suppose my name of this review is hyperlinked to my email address? If so, well, there 'tis! Ah, the wonders of computers...

*grumble grumble grumble* Apparently, anonymous reviews don't include the email... I didn't exactly want to put my email in the body of the review, so this was the next best thing, I suppose.

For the sake of the review, super-awesome chapter! I can't wait for more. X3
