Chapter 1: Prologue


"I'm so sorry. They won't let us be unless we both join Him." Sad a boy with straight black hair. He gave a hopeless look to the girl in front of him.

She shook hear head. It made her honey-red hair fly around in curls. As her blue eyes sunk into him the boy knew already what she will say. "I can't. I won't. You can always name him yours later. They won't live for ever." She gave him an apologetic look.

"They'd kill us. At least I'm going to join. I won't let them hurt either of you." He sad angrily. Silver eyes turned into cold steel.

"Pleas Reg." She pleaded.

"I'm sorry. I have to go." He sad as he ended the floo-call. He stood up from the fireplace and walked into a siting-room. "We can go now." His cousin nodded and parents had a proud smiles plastered over their faces. His insides twisted uncomfortably. Even after this one mistake he'll be the perfect son they desired. Regulus Black at an age of fifteen held by his cousin Bellatrix appearated to take his Dark Mark.

The decision not to take the Mark cost Miraya Lestrange the lose of her parents, siblings and maternal grandparents and resulted into her paternal grandparents taking custody of her son while she was at Hogwards as well, as her little Cassius not being a Black.

At least she know that her father managed to escape with the younger of the twins. He was an auror and a good one at that. But she knew little Victor had been bitten by Greyback. It'd be hard on a run with an infant werewolf. To make them as safe as possible and have Cassius back when she would become off-age she finally took the Mark. But there was no way for her son to have the Black surname ever. And she couldn't be with her Reg.

Right after her seventeenth birthday there was a small inner circle meeting. Only Lestrange family, Regulus and Snape were present. The Dark Lord decided to place a Spy at Hogwards. Or better sad two spies. And that they have to be a family. Made of her and Snape. Both half-blood and cunning as hell.

Both protested. Both were silenced. Reg herd and was silenced as well. He started to kept to himself and estranged himself from her. She knew something was wrong. And then the Dark Lord borrowed Creature and Reg died. She was sad and furious. Whit Severus she approached Dumbledor. Non of the two knowing the real side the other was on non trusting each other. And also... They had to consume their marriage by the end of her seventh year in her time of mourning over Reg. They were forced into an unbreakable vow.

Bur the last back-stub from the Dark Lord was the mission of infiltrating the Marauders and the Order by the means of Sirius Black. Whit that bad feeling of being used she left the meeting a year after she graduated.
