A.N I do not own Harry Potter

Marcus began doing his research into the Potter family and the rumors were true. They are the dependents of Godric Gryffindor himself and she has ties into the Peverall family as well. Yes, she does carry more power than him. Hell would freeze over before he could even gain rights to see them even though he is the father.

Chloe could not wait to see Teddy even though the pregnancy is leaving her exhausted. Andromeda had been on her case about the father and was not a fan of her denying them a chance at a father and using the fact that she did not have one as an excuse.

"Chloe, I know how much you want to do this on your own, you shouldn't. This is not about you, it's about them. You don't have to be romantically involved with him but we are going to Potter manor.

Andromeda had not been in here for years. The last time she set foot here was when aunt Dorea and uncle Charlus were having a Yule party. Andromeda knew where the tapestry was and she knew where James was on it. There in plain sight was Chloe. It should a link to Marcus Flint and right below it was more specific, unknown child and unknown child.

Family tapestries never lie "Chloe, he knows. Marcus came to me after he found out. You need to talk."

"Andromeda, I am sure he does not need to be saddled down by kids. I will be fine and they will be too"

Andromeda had met Lily on many occasions and knew how stubborn she was. Chloe is just like her mother.

"You are meeting with him tomorrow no matter what."

The next day Chloe chose a top that covers quite well. The shirt is red and gold with a lion on the front. It said "I will be raised .to be Gryffindor". She needed something just to get under his skin only if a little. She has plans on giving birth in Houston, Texas where she is doing her apprenticeship. The nursery was going to be in red and gold. She had a decorator to come in and put together.

Marcus did not like the same guy who she last remembered when she was 13.

"Chloe..."

She was not going to yield to him "Flint, I am sure you don't need to be saddled down with kids from a witch you don't know. Don't worry, I will keep them out of your way and no one ever has to know. I can handle everything on my own."

Andromeda and Marcus took a step back. Neither were expecting that answer from her. Marcus saw the shirt and it was a flippant dare to him. While groupies may want access to the vaults he knew she had enough money to buy several teams.

"Chloe, I know you site being fine without your parents but I know you weren't. Now listen."

Marcus saw her put her hand to the side of her belly, he knew one of them kicked and if he went near her; he would be hexed. If she can duel Voldemort and win then she could hex the hell out of him. If his father was still alive, he would skin him just for the drinking alone. Now the fact that he got a with pregnant out of wedlock would make him livid and it would not be the blood status.

"Potter, I am just as responsible as you are for that night. I do want to be involved contrary to popular belief and no I do not care about blood status if you try to through your half-blood card in the open. I know what it is like to not have a parent, my mother died giving birth to me. I don't want that for them, I do want to be involved. I will not force you to give up your life to be a stay at home mother."

Marcus had the glare of death thrown at him. He was going to learn why she could be seen as the Gryffindor ice princess. "Fine but nothing more. I head back to Houston tomorrow."

He was thrown a small bone and he would take it. "Why so soon?"

Chloe had barely anytime to herself between the apprenticeship and preparing for the birth of her children. "I have clinicals and an appointment with my healer, it's a checkup."

She left moments later and Marcus was left standing there with Andromeda "That went better than I thought."

《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》《 》

Marcus went to have drinks with his best mate Adrian Pucey "Mate, met up with Chloe. She was quite frigid. I didn't remember her being so frigid. I am going to have hell with her."

Adrian knew why she turned frigid. Marcus had owled him and the developments were a shock. Marcus was going to be a father to twins. He knew what it was like for Marcus to grow up without his mother, it did bother him.

"While Potter was on the hunt from the horcruxes with Granger and Weasley, there were rumors that they abandoned her because the hunt was not going so easily. She forgave them. Granger and Weasley did not deserve Order of Merlin first class,they rodeo the back of her success. I imagine with the Weasleys popping out kids like rabbits that they expected her to get married immediately and become a stay at home mother and give her titles and gold to the husband. It's probably why she is fighting you as much is because she was probably fed some crap about our world by them."

During school it had confused many why the bloody hell she would have associated with the Weasleys. The Potters are far above them in station and while they did not act the role of elitists, associations were monitored closely so they would not fall with the wrong sort. Now as far as Lily Evans was involved, that woman showed power and intellect. She did not act entitled and a know-it-all like Hermione. If you wanted a muggle born to fall in love with than it would be her.

There had been suspicions that the only reason why the Weasleys pushed their friendship with Chloe is they wanted a piece of the Potter fortune.

Marcus knew there was more to the war than is known and it will most likely to take years to know. He had a better sense of what he was dealing with what Andromeda said and what Adrian knew.

"Well, I am going to have to charm her and show her that I am not someone in for her because he fathered the children of the girl-who-lived. It won't be a bad thing."

"You do that mate. You have a battle to get involved with but let's make sure it does not get out and watch your mouth when you are out drinking, you have a big mouth when you are drunk. Skeeter would love this and if Potter even thinks you leaked something to Skeeter then you can guarantee you will never, ever see or hear of her and your kids"

Marcus had some work to do like purchasing a flat in Houston and seeing if he can play in the North American league so he can be closer to her. He knew Texas has a team and it is time to have his agent looking for openings. There is only four months before they a born and that is four months of work he needed to do.
