Full Summary
Narcissa knew she couldn't protect her niece from those who would want to seek revenge for everything her parents had done so she gave her to the one person who could.
Dumbledore places Hermione with a loving magical family sure that raised the right way Hermione will be the exact opposite of her parents, but the older she gets the more he sees of them in her.
He stares down at the sleeping child that looks so innocent clutching a teddy bear and it amazes him that she's their daughter.
How was it possible for two people like Voldemort and Bellatrix to produce something so innocent?.
It was something he had asked himself since Narcissa had turned up hours earlier with girl in her arms and Severus by her side, his face emotionless but his eyes burned with hatred.
*Flashback*
"Severus, Mrs Malfoy how can I help you?," He asks his eyes not leaving the child who was staring at him trying to figure out who he was.
"This wasn't a good idea Severus" Narcissa says quietly, looking down at the girl in her arms with a pained expression.
"You came to me, I was blissfully ignorant of the situation until you wanted my help and this the only option there is," Severus hissed, causing the child to become unsettled.
"It's okay Hermione, everything going to be okay," Narcissa whispers and he doesn't know whether it's for the girl sake or her own.
"Take a seat both you I think somethings need explaining,"
*End of flashback*
Narcissa had explained Voldemort wanting an heir, Bellatrix only to happy to be the one to produce one and her fear with Voldemort gone and Bellatrix going to Azkaban that she can't protect Hermione and that Draco could be at risk if Hermione stayed with her.
Her fears were not unfounded this Albus knew if people found out about Hermione there would be many who would happily make the child pay for her parents sins.
So Narcissa turned to Severus and Severus brought them to him.
He promised to find Hermione a loving family and to keep her safe.
When Narcissa handed the girl to him she didn't make a fuss not even when her aunt left and it made him wonder how many times the girl had been dumped from adult to adult that to her it was perfectly normal to be handed over to someone she didn't know.
That was hours ago and now she had curled up in the corner with her teddy bear and gone to sleep while he try to figure out the safest place to put her.
If placed her with a Muggle family then she would be left unprotected so that wasn't an option. It was matter of picking a magical family that he could trust, that were loving and would give her a normal happy childhood.
A family that wouldn't fill her head full of hatred for everyone that wasn't a Pureblood.
