Severus was at home nursing his hangover. The images of a mini female Voldemort flashed through his mind. He didn't see any biblical plagues anywhere suggesting the birth of his child, Nor did he suddenly see rivers of blood run down the muggle streets. But why would care for a female child? Sure females are the smarter and stronger sex but his lord was old. So why did he care for someone that couldn't further his bloodline? Why care for the child at all if the bearer was alive and he was Assuming healthy.
He took a drink of his whiskey from the bottle. Did his lord see her as a spare for when he had his real heir? No, otherwise he would hardly Acknowledge her. That was common in magical society if you had a spare. Maybe she was squib? No, if she was a squib he would have been rid of her long ago. He had to be up to something, maybe wanted to marry her off to someone powerful? But no one held more rank than him. What was he planning to do?
Anything he came up with was quickly debunked with reason. When something came to mind that chilled his blood, she was Probably powerful. She had to be for his lord to take notice and care for her at all. To show her any affection to her. But what about the bearer? she was Probably powerful as well, of course, she was. Why else would he Procreate with someone if the person wasn't powerful? Was she a pureblood?
He didn't know, he wanted to say yes off the bat but he was attached to power, he'd be with a muggle-born if they had powerful magic. But he didn't know what to say or to expect. He still didn't know what Voldemort was planning after his return from the dead. but something was going on. He had a secret wife and child. He Showed genuine human affection towards another human being I'll be at his daughter and wife but he felt Foreign for him to hear his lord show anything akin to love or kindness.
Was he abusing them behind closed doors? No, he didn't know that Nosy Narcissa and us were listening in. He was the dark lord he knew had to have been doing something evil. As soon as he thought back on the dark Lord's miss deeds a worse thought came to him. W-was his wife love potioned to love him? Was she being imperied? The poor Child Probably has no idea what her father is truly capable of. He was truly insane and ruthless. He didn't know her name to look up her mother, all he had to go on was a nickname. Dolly
Narcissa was happily looking through some clothes for Draco to wear. As soon as her lord allowed people to meet his daughter she just knew her Draco and the dark lord's daughter would get along so well. She was over the moon when she saw that card for her lord on his desk. It wasn't like she was Really snooping since it was in plain sight on his desk. You can't blame someone for being Curious, can you?
She couldn't wait to see what she looks like. She Was probably adorable looking for their lord to be smitten by her. With how old their lord was she was starting to think he'd never settle down and have an heir. She was a bit nervous too but hearing them made her feel better. She thought their Lord would be like every man his age and shun their daughter in favor of a male heir but he proved her Worried mind wrong.
But she couldn't help but want to meet her. A little girl looks up to her father for guidance and support in her young life like how a little girl looks to her mother to help her grow and learn. After all the first child is either and female Version of their father or a male version of the mother. At some point, the child is like a clone of the parent. She was admittedly curious. Did she look like him? The mom? Or was she a mix of them both?
Either way, she was excited to meet her. She sounded so cute and sweet. Though she wondered what her mother was like. Was she strong? She knew that their lord's wife was smart. They sounded like they have a good relationship as well. Though some small shallow part of her wanted to know if she was beautiful. Even now as Narcissa remembered what her mother told her and her sister's after one of her father's awful rants on women. " A woman's worth should not be decided on her face but by her brains, her leadership, and her backbone to stand up for her child and family. that my dear is worth more than beauty. ". She could still remember it to this day. But Curiosity was getting the best of her.
But could wait. When Narcissa is done picking out the perfect outfit for her little dragon. She went to see how Lucius was doing. He was in the living room reading and drinking his favorite wine with a plate of crackers and cheeses. " Lucius, Draco is ready for His first Quidditch game. Don't be out too late. " Lucius agreed to take Draco to his first Quidditch game for some father, son bonding time. Lucius rise from his chair and gave her a quick peck on the cheek " of course my darling love. Come along Draco " he pick up his son and left through the floo. After they left she still wondered.
Dumbledore was going through the papers in his office when he came across the award announcement of Lily Marie Evans. Who would have thought a silly little mudblood girl would win. But she was perfect for his plans. All she needed was a push in the right direction. She and James were perfect. Of course, Lily did her job perfectly by dying, if only her husband had followed her Example and died before he had his affair for his plans to work. Of course, he was sorely disappointed that his first child was a weak girl instead of an heir but he could make do. After all, she was Legitimate while her bastard half-brother was not.
But seeing her be so powerful as Reflect a killing curse. He couldn't let black rise her. She'd be Independent and free-thinking. No, he needed her to be jaded and scared. To trust him and destroy Tom before imperoing her to kill off some friends or whoever was around. Her brother would need to Defeat her after she was hailed as the new dark lady. They would both die as he took the credit, James would Naturally be devastated at the loss of both his children that he'll never look into it. And while his name and legacy are Immortalized forever in wizard in society.
He puts the papers away. " it's truly a shame that Holly wasn't a boy. I could've at potioned Ginevra to keep the potter line going But alas it was not to be. I pair her with Neville or someone I know I use? What do you think Fawkes old boy? "
The phoenix didn't even look at him. He was disgusted by what his master was doing. And after he is gone he'll have a new master that he'll gladly Serve, he'd rather Serve as the Dark Lord's familiar than Albus Dumbledore's at least he knew that happened to poor Tom. He heard what Albus had done to him. He saw what he had done to the poor Lily Evans. And he knew the horrible plan that he had for one Holly Potter. When he got free of the spell that Albus Dumbledore had placed on him all those years ago when they met, he was going to make sure that Albus's shoulder was never crap-free again. Even when he slept.
