I do not own Harry Potter
October 31st was a big day for many people in the wizarding world, for most it was a day to celebrate, others it was a day to mourn. For Bellatrix LeStrange, it was both, that night she gave birth to a son, Rigel Atlas Riddle, though he was called Rigel LeStrange, however, that same night the father of her child disappeared, some said he died, though she didn't believe it.
Bellatrix held her baby in her arms, she had yet to hear the news about her lover. Her younger sister, Andromeda had been there for the birth, much to her displeasure. Andromeda was glad that Bellatrix didn't have her wand, she didn't want to think about what could have happened to her if she had it.
"What are you calling him? We need to send the name to the ministry." Andromeda said quietly, she honestly wished she had taken their daughter Trick or treating that night.
Bellatrix looked up from her son to her sister with a cold look.
"What is it any business to the ministry?" Bellatrix said in a stressed out tone.
"Well for one we need a record of his birth, and two how will Hogwarts know his name?" Her sister pointed out.
"Do you need it right this second?" She hadn't thought of a name and Andromeda knew it.
"Yes." It was a lie, but Bellatrix didn't know that.
"Fine, we'll start with his last. It's LeStrange, obviously."
Andy just nodded, it was already down.
"Atlas is his first... no middle name, his first name is Rigel." Bella said, slightly rushed, she had been hoping for a girl and hadn't thought of any names for a boy.
Andy finished putting it on the certificate, she had been trying to figure out why it kept changing his last name to Riddle, she knew it wasn't a family name, but she wouldn't say anything to her sister, for fear of her life. Andromeda left the room and sent the papers to the ministry and Hogwarts, before placing the original in a file.
A whole day had passed before Bellatrix was allowed to leave, her little sister Narcissa had come to collect her and the baby. No one had told her that Rodolphus had been taken to Azkaban and that she would come under question.
"What have you called him?" Narcissa asked once they were in the LeStrange manor.
"Rigel, Rigel Atlas." Narcissa thought about the name before responding, "Lovely name, it fits him."
Bella only nodded as she went upstairs to the nursery.
"There is something you should know." Cissy timidly said, holding her own son, Draco, closer to her.
"The Dark Lord has vanished, your husband is in Azkaban, and you will be questioned." Bellatrix didn't hear anything past the first sentence, Voldemort was dead.
I know what you're all thinking, 'Oh no, not another Voldemort & Bellatrix have an evil child fanfic' But I can assure you that Rigel wouldn't hurt a fly, he'd just collect the dead ones and study 'em! But there are a lot of changes in this book.
Bellatrix is not nor will she ever be psychotic.
If you've seen my other HP book(s) this will most likely have a fem!Harry. Haven't decided yet, I don't think I've written in Harry or not.
You can all tell me if you'd rather have Evangeline Potter or Harry Potter.
