Dumbledore jumped back as if he was slapped, the Queen was willing to go to war with humans just for the chance to talk to Harry. She could be bluffing but he couldn't take that chance, the vampires weren't on Voldemorts side this time and he didn't want to do anything to risk that.
"Very well" Dumbledore cast a disappointed look at Harry, almost as if he thought it would get Harry to feel bad about his decision
"Off you go then" Harry prompted, clearly the look didn't work. Dumbledore turned and walked off. Harry closed the door and placed multiple locking and privacy charms.
"I don't see how you can stand to be around that man" The Queen commented
"I usually try to avoid him unless I have an opportunity to irritate him" Harry admitted
"I see you're still the same as ever" She smiled, she then looked at Daphne "and this is your fiancée?"
"Daphne Greengrass" Harry walked over to Daphne and held her hand "beautiful, smart and perfect for me" Daphne blushed at the praise but did her best to keep a straight face
"Are you sure you wouldn't prefer me?" The Queen gestured to herself "My offer is still open"
"Which offer?" Daphne asked Harry
"The one where she turns me into a vampire and I become her husband" Harry replied before turning to the queen "I appreciate the offer but no thank you" He said, much to the relief of Daphne.
"Very well" The Queen sighed "I am here to talk to you about the one called Voldemort, I did not wish to simply say this in a letter, he was allied with us during the last war. This time, I wanted to make it clear that we will stay neutral in the war. You may be disappointed that we are not fighting on your side but my people are insisting that if we must join the humans then we fight on Voldemorts side. And I'm sure you don't want that"
"You'd be correct" Harry nodded "thank you, it means a lot"
"Think nothing of it" The Queen replied "you may consider it as me paying my debt to you"
"Still, thank you. Is there anything else?"
"No, that was all I had to say, I simply preferred saying it to your face than writing it on a letter."
"Shall I escort you?" Harry offered
"No, thank you but I am more than capable of doing so on my own" The Queen turned to Daphne "as for you, you had better become a faithful and supportive wife, because if you don't then I assure you that I will make your life miserable"
"Yes" Daphne gulped "I will"
"That's good" She said as Harry removed all the charms, she walked out of the door and made her way out of the castle
"You alright?" Harry asked Daphne "She can be a bit intimidating"
"Yeah" Daphne nodded as she pulled Harry into a hug "I can't believe you refused the queen of vampires for me"
"I can, you're brilliant" Harry kissed her on the forehead
"Well thank you" Daphne kissed him on the lips
"Hold on" Harry let her go "idiot incoming"
"Mr Potter" Dumbledore arrived "has the Queen left?"
"Yes" Harry nodded
"What did you discuss with her? Was it about the war? Did she…"
"I will tell you" Harry cut him off as he grabbed Daphne's hand "but I will tell you at the next order meeting"
"But Mr Potter, I…"
"You will tell me when it is, because as I remember, you agreed to allow me to attend all meetings. So, if you want that information then you will wait until the next meeting. See ya later Dumbles" Harry walked out of the classroom with Daphne following him, the walked down the hall.
"Mr Potter!" Dumbledore shouted "I'm not finished! Mr Potter!" He chased after the two, just as they turned the corner.
Dumbledore turned the same corner, but to his surprise, the pair had vanished. He couldn't see any hints of apparition at all, he waved his wand to check if the pair was invisible but they weren't. They weren't there. This left Dumbledore with another mystery to solve, how did they do that?
