The next morning when Harry woke up Ron wasn't in his bed. Harry showered, dressed and went down to the common room. No Ron there either. "Probably writing a letter to mommy." Harry thought. Ten minutes later Hermione and Ginny came down. Ginny looked like she didn't get much sleep and it looked she had been crying a lot.
Hermione walked straight to Harry and gave have him a breath taking kiss. "She is and needs our help." She whispered in Harry ear. Who nodded that he understood and was with her on this.
"So are you girls ready to go down to the great hall for some breakfast?" Harry asked with a light tone. Both girls nodded and both took a hand Harry offered. Just before they entered the great hall Ginny stopped them. "Harry, Hermione already knows part of it but could we go somewhere after breakfast? The room of requirements perhaps? I really need to talk with the two of you." "Sure thing Ginny no problem."
After breakfast the three of them headed to the seventh floor. During breakfast Ron was nowhere to be seen. Harry found that very odd Ron never skipped a meal.
Harry walked three times in front of the blank wall concentrating on a choosy room to feel relaxed in. when he opened the door for both girls. He saw that the room transformed into a nice welcoming living room. Harry offered both girls a seat but they both wanted to sit next to him on the large sofa.
Ginny was a bit nerves when she started talking. "Harry I already told Hermione Yesterday evening that I fancy girls. She told me you already figured that out yourself. Look I know you said you don't have a problem with gay people but what about me?"
"Ginny I meant when I said you're like a sister to me your sexual preferences doesn't change that. You're my sister in all but blood and nothing is going to change that. I love you and will always continue doing that".
"Hermione don't ever let him go you hear". Ginny said with tears in her eyes. "Thank you Harry you saying that means a lot to me and I love to my brother."
Both teens gave the crying redhead a kiss on her cheek. "Thanks I needed that. Mom doesn't understand she keeps on pushing towards Harry. Saying it's the best for me. That it is for the greater good."
"What did you say? For the greater good? That's Dumbledore's line." Harry said he was getting really angry now. "He always uses that bullshit when something bad happens. Or when he sent me back to my relatives. Something tells me Dumbledore is cooking something and we are not going to like it. For example that love potion Ron tried to feed Hermione did your mother brew that our did Ron got it somewhere else? Mione can you remember when you started to feel differently about Ron?"
"At the sorting but there wasn't anything to drink yet. Waite a minute Dumbledore invited all the prefects and the head boy and girl into an empty classroom on the main floor. He told us that now the ministry believed Voldemort was back we needed to watch everybody carefully. Then he offered us all a drink and toasted on a good year at Hogwarts. After that I saw Ron in an entire different light. Dumbledore must have slipped me the first potion. But why? What does he has to gain with that?"
"I don't know but I sure am going to find out." Harry said angry. "Something tells me this is all connected. I mean me ending up with Ginny and you Hermione with Ron."
"Money." Ginny said "Mom said that if I ended up with Harry our financial problems would be over. Harry you must believe me I don't care about your money. But I know mom and Ron do. They are always complaining about money. I don't know how but Dumbledore must be somehow involved."
"Harry I don't want to sound pushing or anything but I think Ginny has a point." Hermione said to her lover. "I mean think about it. Ron always complains that everybody else has everything and he has nothing. Especially towards you. You have fame he has not. I know you don't like your fame but he would love it. You have money he has not. He wanted to at least beat you into one thing. Me, he knew I didn't have feelings for him and according to Ginny a whole lot of people saw that we are more to each other than just friends. That's why they used the love potion. They wanted me to fall in love with Ron. I bet they tried love potion on Ginny to but only a view love potions work on gay people if you want to make them fall in love with a member of the other sex. And those can only be made by a potions master. And I don't think Dumbledore trust Snape enough to ask him to brew such a potion. Especially because Snape is gay too. At least according to people who knew him in his teens."
Harry knew she meant Sirius but he didn't say anything about it. "So you both think that Dumbledore, Molly and Ron all playing the same game to get to my money?" both girls nodded yes.
"Then I think it's time we pay a visit to Gringotts." Harry said with a determent voice.
"How?" Both girls asked. "Simple, DOBBY?" Harry said and a soft pop was heard. "Yes Harry Potter sir. What can Dobby do for you?"
"Dobby my friend is it possible for you to find Remus Lupin and bring him to the Shrieking Shack and tell him we need to meet him there. Could you do that for me Dobby?"
"Of course Dobby can do that Harry Potter sir." "Good tell him we be there in a hour and thank you Dobby." With a soft pop the little elf disappeared again.
"Ok you girls want to come with me?" "Of course I am going with you. Where you go I go." Hermione firmly.
"Eh I really would like to go with you guys but. I am afraid that one's this comes out Ron or Dumbledore go after the one I love and I can't let that happen." Ginny said again close to tears.
"Who is she Ginny?" Harry asked while pulling her into a brotherly hug.
"Daphne, Daphne Greengrass from Slytherin." Ginny said fully crying now.
"He there no need to cry. I don't hate all Slytherin's I just don't like Malfoy. Why don't you go and look for Daphne and ask her if she comes along we wait here for you. Deal?" "Deal" and with that Ginny ran out of the room.
"You're a wonderful man you know that Harry Potter". Hermione said before attacking him with a breath taking kiss.
"Thanks you're not so bad yourself my goddess". Harry replied when he was allowed to breathe again.
"I know Daphne from my study group on ancient ruins she is very nice." Hermione said still holding Harry tight against her. She loved the effect she got on him. She could already feel his second wand grow. "Now it all makes sense to me why all the boys call her the ice queen. She is a lesbian."
They didn't have to wait long before the door opened again and Ginny stepped in holding the hand of a beautiful blond girl. If Harry didn't know any better he would say she was a Veela. But to his eyes his goddess was much more beautiful.
"Congratulations Hermione you captured one of the few guys who can resist my aura". Daphne said while giving Hermione a hug.
"So you are Veela? Harry asked. "Only half Veela that why I put on the ice queen act. I really don't fancy boys. It's not that I hate them I just prefer kissing girls more especially Ginny". Daphne giggled.
"Only kissing?" Hermione asked and both Daphne and Ginny turned scarlet red. "Don't worry girls we don't want to know". Hermione laughed.
"Well I wouldn't say that." Harry joked. "HARRY" both Hermione and Ginny squeaked and started chasing him through the room.
"Oh please girls don't kill him I really need to ask him something really important". Daphne giggled.
"Please Daphne do tell. I really need to be saved right now". Harry joked.
"Well if I am right you are the last Potter and therefore the head of house. A house that has the status of noble and ancient." Daphne explained. "So?" Harry asked between laughs.
"So if I am right and you are the last lord Potter I would really would like to ask you if you could place me under the protection of your house. It's the only way I would be safe if the find out I am gay." Daphne said with a sad voice.
This brought the other three to a halt. Ginny rushed towards her girlfriend and took her in a loving hug. "We can find that out if we go to Gringotts and find out what's in my parents will." Harry said while looking at towards Daphne who was close to tears. "And if you are right and I am indeed Lord Potter I will place you under the protection the second I find out."
"How on earth can I stay mad at him when he is acting like that?" Hermione asked half frustrated half laughing. The other three couldn't help but laugh at Hermione's words.
Harry checked the Marauders map to see if the coast was clear. It was and they went towards the Shrieking Shack using the secret tunnel. When they arrived Remus was already waiting for them. After they explained to him what they wanted to do. Remus transformed an old piece of wood into a portkey and the five of them vanished and reappeared on the steps of Gringotts.
When they all entered Harry approached the only goblin he knew. "Good morning chief counter Griphook". Griphook who wasn't used to be approached so friendly by any wizard or witch. Looked up from his papers. "Well Mister Potter I see you still remember me." The goblin said friendly at least as friendly as a goblin can.
"I never forget a face chief counter Griphook. I was wondering if you could provide me with some information considering my parents and god-fathers will." Harry asked using again a respectful tone.
"I said it before. But I say it again you are a unusual wizard Harry Potter. Anyway you came to the right place Mr. Potter Senior accounted Bloodfang is the current accounted for both the Potter and Black account". Griphook said still sounding friendly. "if you will follow me I will bring you to him".
"Chief counter Griphook is it ok if my friends join me during the reading of the will?" Harry asked.
"I believe that the first part of the Potter will is for your eyes only Mr. Potter. After that your entire party is requested at the reading of both the wills." Griphook explained. "Here it is". Griphook held the door open for Harry and led the rest towards a comfortable waiting area.
"Ah Mr. Potter so glad to finaly meet you". Senior accounted Bloodfang said. "Please have a seat."
Instead of sitting down directly Harry offered the by goblin standards middle age goblin his hand. Bloodfang took it but barley could hide his surprise by this friendly approach. Certainly from a wizard with Harry's allure. "The pleasure is all mine senior accounted Bloodfang and please call me Harry". Harry said while shacking the goblins hand.
"Yes well Harry. Before we continue I need a drop of your blood to confirm your identification. Just place your finger on the stone. You will feel a light sting after that the wills and the files attached to the wills. Will appear on my desk".
Harry placed his pointing finger on the stone and felt a little sting. When he removed the finger the small wound was completely sealed. At the same time two enormous books appeared each had several envelopes on top of it.
"Harry before we call your friends in. I want you to take a look at two photos". Bloodfang held up the first photo. Harry could swear that it was a photo of him and Ginny only he couldn't remember when it was taken. The two of them looked very much in love. He was sure that kneader him or Ginny would ever act like that towards each other.
"Senior accounted Bloodfang I am confused I just don't seem to remember when this photo was taken from myself and Ginny".
Bloodfang chuckled "Look closer Harry. This photo was taken before you were even born".
"You mean these are my parents?" Harry asked stunned.
"Yes they are Harry. This photo was taken when they were the same age as you are now. You revere to a young lady called Ginny. Who is she?"
"Ginevra Molly Weasley. She's like a sister to me. Why do you ask?"
"Well" Bloodfang started. "We at Gringotts have no records on a Ginevra Molly Weasley. Is she related to Arthur Weasley current head of house of Weasley?"
"It's her Father". Harry said. "Impossible". Bloodfang replied "Arthur Weasley never produced a daughter. Only 5 sons. William, Charles, Percival, Fred and George. Never a daughter called Ginevra".
"Eh Senior accounted Bloodfang you are forgetting one Ronald Bilius Weasley." Harry was getting really confused now.
"No, I am not. I am also the senior accounted of the Weasley family and there is no record or birth certificate of a Ronald Bilius Weasley. But that's not imported right now what is imported is that the girl you know as Ginevra Molly Weasley. Is in fact Selena Lily Potter your younger sister".
"WHAT". Harry shouted "But how. I mean I don't have a sister. Do I?" Harry's world was spinning around him right now.
"Relax Harry the moment she sat down on the sofa outside my office her identity was confirmed. She is indeed Selena Lily Potter. Born 28 October 1981. 3 days before your parents died".
Harry just couldn't believe it he had a sister. Ginny no Selena was his younger sister. But how on earth was this possible. How did she end up with the Weasley's. Harry had only one explanation for that. Dumbledore.
"That stupid old goat". Harry grinded through his teeth.
"If you revering to Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore. Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation of Wizards. And Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot. Than yes I agree with you Harry he is a stupid old goat. A dangerous goat but never the less a goat". Bloodfang said chuckling. "We at Gringotts have been keeping an eye on Mr. Dumbledore and we didn't like what we saw. I be happy to give you a copy of our findings after you pay a small fee of course".
"Of course." Harry said "Albus too many names and to many titles Dumbledore has go down. Hard really hard". Harry thought.
"Now for the second photo Harry what do you see?" Bloodfang asked.
"Hermione with two guys. One looks a bit like Sirius the other one I never seen before". Harry said flat out. He was still infuriating with Dumbledore.
"Your 1/3 right Harry it is Sirius Orion Black 17 years ago. The other two are non-magical people called Robert and Jean Granger". Bloodfang was really feeling sorry for Harry. So he just told him the truth.
"Sirius knew Hermione's parents?" Harry asked surprised. Forgetting Dumbledore for a moment.
"Yes Harry, there isn't enough time to tell you the whole story. But is short Sirius Orion Black saved Robert and Jean Granger one day from a death eaters attack. During this attack Robert granger became sterile. Sirius Orion Black didn't have the heart to wipe there memories and they became friends. Robert and Jean Granger greatest wish was to raise a child. But with Robert being sterile that wasn't possible. So the asked for Sirius Orion Black's help. Sirius Orion Black being the next in line to become the head of the ancient and noble house of black. He agreed to that because mostly of his own sexual preference he wouldn't be able to provide a hire in a natural way. Second reason for him to agree was that he didn't want to that the title of head of the ancient and noble house of black would fall into hands of the house of Malfoy. Sirius Orion Black donated his seed and Jean Granger was artificially inseminated with it at a non-magical hospital. Before Hermione Jean Black was born. Sirius Orion Black and Robert Granger came to an agreement. Sirius Orion Black Hermione Jean Granger would recognize as his daughter. But Robert Granger would adopt her before her birth. That way she would be born in the non-magical world as Hermione Jean Granger. Hogwarts will always use non-magical birth certificates. For magical children born in non-magical families. That way she would be known as Hermione Jean Granger in the magical world. Only Gringotts would recognize her as Hermione Jean Black". The biggest question now is. You are the second but first male hire of Sirius Orion Black. If you take on the title Hermione Jean Black will go on living as Hermione Jean Granger and will never know the truth about Sirius Orion Black being her biological father. Or you decline the title and she becomes the next head of the ancient and noble house of Black".
"I could never face Hermione again if I needed to hold something back from her especially something like her birth right. It would be like lying to her and that I could never do". Harry said with a determent voice.
"Very well than I think it's time to invite your friends in". Bloodfang said clearly amused.
Harry got up and opened the door. The second the others saw him they knew there was something big going on. They had never seen this kind of expression on Harry's face. It was between pure rage and overwhelming joy.
"Harry is everything alright?" Hermione asked him. "You look like you're very angry about something and at the same time you are also very happy".
"Mostly I am overjoyed goddess. But there are some thinks I am totally pissed about but we already suspected something about this man. It's just much bigger than we could ever expect". Harry answered her.
"Dumbledore?" Remus asked. Harry nodded and made a move with his arm to invite them all in. four extra chairs appeared. Before they all sat down they introduced themselves to senior account manager Bloodfang. With a slight bow and a handshake. Hermione was the first one to do so and the rest just followed her example. Bloodfang was happy surprised and impressed.
"Thank you all for coming" Bloodfang started. "It would be a lot easier for me if you gave me permission to address each of you by your first name". They all nodded yes.
"Thank you, before we start I would like for you to look at two photos". Bloodfang showed them the two photos.
"When was this photo taken?" Ginny asked pointing at the photo of what she thought was her and Harry.
"Before I answer that I like to know what miss. Granger sees on the other photo?" Bloodfang said with a smile on his face.
"My Parents but then younger with someone who looks like a younger version of Sirius. But I don't understand my parents never knew Sirius".
"Thank you both. When you all sat down outside this office we at Gringotts took the liberty to check all of your true identities". Bloodfang said.
"True identities?" all accept from Harry asked simultaneously.
"Yes" Bloodfang answered "Here are the results of our findings." Bloodfang handed them all a scroll of parchment. Hermione fainted when she saw the results and Ginny burst into tears. Harry was in conflict to help the women he loved or his sister. Lucky for him Daphne took care of Ginny.
Hermione slowly regained consciousness in Harry's arms. While Ginny calmed in those of Daphne.
"A yes this must be quite a shock to your both". Bloodfang replied to the situation. "But I assure you these documents are verified and the information is the truth".
"But that means my entire life is a lie." Ginny cried.
"And what about mine my father isn't my father". Hermione said also crying.
"Quite understandable." Bloodfang said with worry in his voice. "Please let me explain Miss Selena Lily Potter. You were born 3 days before your parents were killed by the one who calls himself the dark lord. We at Gringotts believe that after your brother Harry James Potter banished the self-named dark lord. You were kidnapped by magician Dumbledore and given to the pureblood witch Molly Weasley née Prewett. We have no knowledge that Arthur Weasley or any of his sons know about this. Everything is in a file and a copy will be given to your brother Harry James Potter. As for you Hermione Jean Black. Sirius Orion Black left a letter to you in where he explains everything".
Bloodfang Handed Hermione the letter. With she opened directly and began to read.
Dear Hermione.
When your read this you have probably just discovered that I am your biological father. Before I continue you must believe me when I say that your mother always has been faithful towards your father and I never touched her in any sexual way.
You see when I graduated from Hogwarts I became an Auror. One day I was following a lead on a couple of death eaters. I followed them to an abandoned house and found out the held two muggles. I had no time to call for backup because the man was already been heavily tortured and the wanted to start on the woman.
I stormed into the house and killed 4 of the 5 death eaters. The fifth one got away. I am for 99% sure it was Lucius Malfoy. I just was never able to prove it. The man was badly hurt but thanks to his military training he survived he told me that he was a member of his majesty SAS.
The woman was luckily unhurt. The probably wanted her undamaged before the raped her. As a auror I was also trained in battle healing. So I started healing the man as good as I could. The problem was I couldn't take him to a muggle hospital because most of the torture was done magical. I also couldn't bring him to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. Because he was a muggle. So I called in the help of my cousin Andromeda Tonks née Black who is a trained healer.
She patched him up pretty good. The only problem was he was hit by a sterilization curse and it turned out to be irreversible. The more time I spend with them the closer we became. Eventually we became friends. I couldn't get it over my heart to wipe their memories because of that. Their names are Robert and Jean Granger. Yes Hermione your parents and I say parents because that's what they are. Your loving parents who love you more than anything in the world don't ever doubt that.
After the view years they told me about their child wish and asked me if I was willing to help them out. They knew I was the next in line to become the head of my house and needed to provide a hire. They also knew I was gay. So producing a hire the natural way was kind of a problem for me. If I wouldn't provide a hire. The title of head of house would be turned over to my oldest living relative. Narcissa Malfoy née Black. Don't get me wrong I always loved my cousin but I hated the man she was forced to marry.
So your parents gave me a solution. The only thing I needed to do was go with them to a muggle hospital and donate some of my seed. Well that was no problem with all those hot orderlies walking around there. Just kidding Hermione.
I donate my seed and your mother was artificially inseminated with it and became pregnant with you. The three of us sat down when we knew what your sex was and came to an understanding. I would recognize you as my daughter but Robert would adopt you before you were even born. That way you would be born as Hermione Jean Granger. The three of us swore an oath that we would never reveal this until I would be dead and not provided my family with another hire. You could only learn about the truth if you would attend the reading of my will and you received this letter.
I know what you think right now. How on earth would that idiot know I would attend the reading of his will? The answer is simple. When my godson Harry James Potter was born your name was named to his parents as his soul mate. You would of course attend Hogwarts at the same time as he did and if you're were not your parents would go and search for him with the help of my cousin Andromeda.
So that's it kiddo, do this old dog a favor and take up the title as the head of house. There some other thinks in my will that I would like you to do but that's after you put on the black family ring.
There are two other thinks I would like you to do for me. First keep Harry in a straight line for me will you?
Second. Give both your parents a big kiss from me and tell them I love them.
As for you my daughter I love you and will keep watching over you from that big star in the sky.
Love always Sirius Orion Black (Padfoot)
Hermione was fully crying now. "I will Sirius I will" she whispered between her sobs.
"You're alright my angel?" Harry asked and Hermione gave him the letter. "Yes Harry but I would really like to see my parents today". "I promise after we done here we go and see them". Daphne in the meantime had managed to relax Ginny a bit.
"So my Real name is Selena Lily Potter?" Ginny asked when she stopped crying but with Daphne still cleaning up her face. Bloodfang nodded. "Then I want to be called that Selena Lily Potter younger sister of Harry James Potter. Daughter of James and Lily Potter and not because of the fame but because it's the truth". Everyone nodded. Ginny Molly Weasely was no more. Selena Lily Potter Had returned from the dead.
"I swear to you Selena needier me or Sirius know about your existence we always thought you weren't born yet when James and lily were murdered". Remus told Selena when she looked at him. She gave him a little smile and said. "Thank you uncle Remus. I am not angry with you just with Dumbledore and that woman I thought for my whole life was my mother".
"Sorry to interrupt" Bloodfang excused. "There is a matter I need to discuss with you Remus John Lupin. And with Harry and Selena. You see James and Lily Potter named Sirius Orion Black as Harry's godfather but if anything would happen to him. You Remus John Lupin needed to take over that role. They wanted to ask you that when they also wanted to ask you if you wanted to be the godfather of Selena Lily Potter. They gave me the accountability to ask you both questions. So Remus John Lupin are you willing to take up the role as godfather of Harry James Potter and Selena Lily Potter?"
Remus looked at both teens. "Say yes uncle moony". They both said simultaneously. Remus could not help but smile after both teens said that. "Yes Remus John Lupin are honored to take up the role as Godfather of Both Harry James Potter and Selena Lily Potter. So mote it be".
Bloodfang gave him a document to sign to make it official. "Now that, that is settled I would like to move further to the naming and accepting of both the new head of the ancient and noble houses of Potter and Black". All teens tensed at those words.
"It was the wish of the late Lord and Lady Potter. That their son Harry James Potter would be the new Head of the ancient and noble house of Potter and would be known as Lord Potter. Further it was their wish that there daughter Selena Lily Potter would be his hire until Harry James Potter conceive a hire of his own. Selena Lily Potter would therefore be known as Lady Potter. Neither Lord nor Lady Potter can't be forced into marriage by a betrothed contract. If you accept these titles and everything the stand for. I ask you to pick up the rings in front of you". Bloodfang said with a formal voice.
Two ring appeared on Bloodfangs desk in front of Harry and Selena. The both looked at each other and gave a small nod. Simultaneously they picked up the rings and placed them on their finger. Both ring resized to fit their fingers perfectly.
"Congratulations Lord and Lady Potter". Bloodfang said. "Now for Hermione Jean Black. It was the wish of the late lord Black that Hermione Jean Black would be the next head of the ancient and noble house of Black and would be given the title as Lady Black. Late lord Black trusted Lady Black in finding a female hire to be her second until Hermione Jean Black would conceive a hire of herself. Neither Lady Black nor her chosen hire can be forced into marriage by a betrothed contract. The chosen hire of Lady Black will also be known as Lady Black. Late lord Black saw this as his ultimate prank on his family. If you accept this title and everything it stands for. I ask you to pick the head of the family ring and put it on your finger and take the hire ring and choose a hire to wear it". Bloodfang said very formal.
"Before I pick up those rings I want to discuss something with Daphne". Hermione said while looking at her friend. "Daphne I know your family isn't comfortable with you being gay but please could you tell me how uncomfortable they are with it?"
"They are so uncomfortable with it when the department of mysteries informed them that I was soul-bounded to a girl named Selena Lily Potter. They immediately draw up a betrothed contract with the head of the house of Hork. You must understand my parents are blood purists. So being soul-bounded to girl was wrong. They also believed like the rest of the magical world that Harry was the last of the ancient and noble house of Potter. So after making sure at the ministry of magic that there wasn't another Potter. They assumed that Selena had to be Muggle born. So double wrong. The only way I could get out of that contract was to be accepted as a hire of an ancient and noble house or to commit suicide before I graduate. My last hope was to become under the protection of an ancient and noble house. That's why I asked Harry to do that for me. It probably wouldn't have worked because the contract prevents it. I had no idea who this Selena was so it wasn't likely that I would find her. So when Ginny told me about her feelings for me I decided to answer them and enjoy life as long as I can. Because there isn't a cell in my body who is thinking about marrying Markus Hork". Daphne told Hermione close to tears.
"So you would love Ginny/Selena until your final exams and then comit suicide?" Hermione asked with tears rolling down her cheeks. The others didn't do any better even Bloodfang needed to dry his eyes. Daphne could only nod.
"Daphne you and I are going to take those rings and you are going to be my hire. I will not stand by and watch how a soul-bounded couple gets tiered apart because of something foul as a betrothed contract. You're my friend Daphne and you're not going to commit suicide. As of today Daphne Esmeralda Greengrass stops exciting and my sister and hire Daphne Esmeralda Black continues to live". Hermione placed the Black family ring on her finger when she said. "So mote it be". And placed the hire ring on Daphne's finger.
"I hereby declare as Lady Hermione Jean Potter Head of the ancient and noble house of Black that the title and name of Lady Daphne Esmeralda Black never can be taken away from her. So mote it be."
Everyone was fully crying now. Daphne launched herself to Hermione and hugged her tight. "Do you have any idea what you have done Hermione?" Daphne asked between sobs.
"I only tried to help you Daphne." Hermione answered not knowing what Daphne meant by that.
"And you they call the brightest witch of her age. You saved my life silly. I don't know how I will ever be able to repay you". Daphne said hugging Hermione tighter.
"Repay me by loving my future sister in law and love me as a sister. For me that's more than enough." Hermione said while hugging Daphne back.
When everybody settled down BloodFang continued. "Lady Black that was a very nice thing to do but it doesn't change the fact that when you give birth to a hire. The title of hire will be transferred from you're current hire to your new born hire. She will be able to hold the title Lady and the name of black the same goes for Lady Potter. Further the betrothed contract between Daphne Esmeralda Greengrass and Markus Antony Hork will never become active. I hope this will be satisfying for both of you?" Hermione, Daphne and Selena let out a deep sight and nodded yes.
"Now you all four are carrying the title of Lord and Ladies the magical community as emancipated in other words as adults the four of you are no longer need a magical guardian. But I advise you all to appoint an adult by age as a magical adviser. Of course you can choose your magical adviser self". Bloodfang declared.
All four of them looked at Remus at the same time. "I see you all made the same choice". Bloodfang said.
"What! What are you talking about senior accountant Bloodfang? They are kidding. They can't be serious I am a werewolf I am dangerous". "Remus John Lupin!" Selena said with a voice that made Remus trembling like a leaf. "Dam she doesn't only look like Lily she even sound like her". Remus said while looking at the ground. "Yes Ma'am".
Bloodfang almost dropped from his chair from laughter.
"Stop that rubbish right now and accept the fact that the four of us want you as our magical adviser. Kneel down so senior accounted Bloodfang can perform the binding". Selena ordered the old werewolf.
Remus kneeled down and Bloodfang started the binding. All four teens needed to touch Remus on the shoulder. Potters on the right. Blacks on the left. "Remus John Lupin do you take the responsibility of advising both the heads and hires of the ancient and noble houses Potter and Black?"
"I Remus John Lupin will take that responsibility". "Then as director of Gringotss and leader of the goblin nation I Julian Ragnock Declare you Remus John Lupin as KNIGHT OF WANDS of the ancient and noble houses Potter and Black. Rise Sir. Lupin". The goblin laughed a broad smile now. "Neither of you saw that coming now did you. Yes it's true my name is really Julian Ragnock. My son Griphook kept repeating to me that Harry Potter was an unusual wizard more respectful than most magicians. So when you and your party walked into our bank this morning I wanted to see for myself. I replaced senior accounted bloodfang and gave myself out for him. I must admit that my son was right you are a unusual man Lord Potter but so are the three ladies and knight of wands Lupin. The five of you warmed my heart to see so much care for each other and respect for me and my people. Therefore I want you all to offer the help of my healers to get rid of all the charms and dark magic than has been placed on you during your lives".
"Dark magic director Ragnock?" Harry asked who already suspected something.
"Yes Lord Potter. When you walked into this bank for the first time more than 5 years ago. We detected a piece of extremely foul magic behind your scar. We contacted your magical guardian about this but he told us to leave it in."
"Dumbledore!" Harry hissed.
"Yes Lord Potter your right. Our healers at Gringotss are specialized in removing Horcruxes. A Horcrux is a powerful object in which a Dark wizard or witch has hidden a fragment of his or her soul for the purpose of attaining immortality. Creating one Horcrux gives one the ability to anchor one's own soul to earth if the body is destroyed; the more horcruxes one creates, the closer one is to true immortality. Creating multiple Horcruxes is suggested to be costly to the creator, by both diminishing their humanity and even physically disfiguring them. You Lord Potter have one stuck behind your scar. But don't worry we have it out in no time and you won't feel a thing. Why don't the five of you go to our medical ward and get all the locks, charms and Horcux removed from your bodies. In the mean time I will update your personal accounts when you are all done I will have all the papers ready".
Ragnock gave them a scroll of parchment they needed to give it to the head healer and she would know what to do.
