Chapter 4:

Draco stared up at his god-father for several moments, remembering where he was. He sat there staring at the tapestry and couldn't figure out why his father wouldn't have trusted this man to know about him. They were friends after all weren't they. Just when he was about to tell Severus who he saw, Black entered the room, looking between them.

"I think we should go now. I don't know how long the wards will let us stay inside since we aren't family." Draco looked up to the older man and was about to tell him not to worry, but remembered he didn't know.

Once they were back inside the school Draco waited for his god-father to send Black on his way. As he sat back and watched he could tell his god-father was upset that the other man had to go.

"What is wrong Uncle?" Severus just shook his head and sat down next to Draco, pulling him into a hug.

"I want to know why you are so upset. Is your other father that bad?" He asked.

"I just don't understand how James couldn't trust this person. From what I heard they were good friends in school, plus I don't understand how I could be a Slytherin either."

"Why is that?"

"They were both Gryffindors." Draco hung his head feeling like he was shaming his family for not being in their house.

"Maybe it was because you were raised by a bunch of snakes, Draco. It is nothing to be ashamed of. James would have been proud of you no matter what."

"You think?" Draco asked.

"No, I know he would. Now who did you see?" Draco took a deep breath before answering.

"Remus Lupin. The Werewolf. I just never thought it could have been him." Severus was stunned for a few moments as he sat there thinking about Remus.

"I can contact him for you if you would like? I know why James didn't trust him. He thought he was with Dumbledore all those years ago, but he wasn't. Dumbledore kept him under a strict thumb because of his condition. I think he would love to know he has a child."

" I want to meet him properly. I feel bad for the way I treated him when he taught, just because of his condition. You don't think I'll be affected do you?" He didn't care but he would like to know if he would change at all.

"No. It would have shown when you were a baby. We all would have known who your father was then. I'll contact him now, stay right there." Draco watched as Severus walked to his floo and started talking to someone, moments later a tall lanky man walked out.

"What do you want Severus. I have things I need to do." Draco saw the other man stop and look at him for a moment before turning away again.

All Draco could think of was that was his father. This man he didn't even know had sired him and he didn't know how to act. He watched as Severus talked to him for a few minutes and then led him over to Draco.

"You wanted to speak with me Mr. Malfoy." He said his last name with such disgust it made Draco flinch.

"I..I don't know where to begin. I guess to start with I'm not really a Malfoy." He heard the other man laugh before sitting down.

"Right, you look just like Lucius, Blonde hair and everything." Draco swallowed and ducked his head to the floor.

"Maybe that's why my real father thought it would work, keeping me safe there."

"What do you mean real father?" Remus asked.

"I'm a Potter sir. James Potters to be exact." He kept his head down because he didn't want to see the hatred coming off the man in front of him.

"Harry is James and Lily's. He had no more children. Your lying." Remus growled as he moved closer and suddenly stopped. He started to sniff the air and moved quickly away.

"Why do you smell like me?" Remus asked keeping his distance.

"I…I'm your son too." Draco was shocked when he felt a finger lift his chin and he was looking directly into the wolfs eyes.

"You're not lying. Your mine. Oh my god what did Dumbledore do?" Remus sank back into his chair staring at Draco in worry.

"He took my father and Harry. He thought Harry was James' and I was left with the Malfoy's. I just found out this year, I needed to know who you were." Draco felt himself crying again but this time felt Remus' arms around him.

"I never knew. James left right after graduation and everyone thought he left with Lily since she wasn't around either. I was devastated. He was my mate and he just left me." Remus continued to hug Draco like he never wanted to let go.

"Mate? What do you mean mate?" Draco asked pulling away.

"My mate. The only person I can ever be with. I haven't been with anyone since and I never will be. I know he is still out there somewhere, I can still feel him here." Remus pointed to his heart. "I just have no clue where he is. Wait, if Dumbledore thought Harry was James' then who is his parents?" Remus looked at Draco again for answers.

"Oh um."

"Mine." They both heard Severus reply and Remus jumped from his seat.

"But that means his father is.."

"Yes Lupin. Now I would appreciate it if you keep your mouth shut." Severus replied before leaving the room.

"Wait, you know who Harry's other father is? Who?"

"Sorry cub, I can't tell you. That is up to Severus to tell, not me."

"Now we need to find James, find out where he is, what Dumbledore did with him." Draco said frantically.

"We will cub, we will. Now I know you are mine I am not leaving this school. I will find out everything I can, but right now you need to go back to your dorm and get some rest. You have classes tomorrow."

"Alright. I'm glad I found you. I have to tell my par…The Malfoy's."

"You can call them your parents Draco. I won't be upset. They raised you well and they love you. I have a lot to thank Lucius for." Remus gave Draco a hug before he finally left to his rooms. He had a lot of things to think about tonight and he couldn't wait to get to know his father better.
