Just another take on a Tonks is a werewolf story. And I can not deny, I love the idea of mates among werewolves and have seen it often in fics with these two.

It'll hopefully span from OoTP-DH.

Also, I'll be using scenes from the books.

Obviously, if you recognise it, I don't own it.

I did not realise it would be so difficult to write out OoTP, my GOD

Which will be very different from canon.

Remus left her resting in her room, heading down to the kitchen to make something for her to eat. He stopped in his room, digging out the book he knew had the information about Tatiana. When he lived alone, without Wolfsbane, he always found the easiest thing to prepare(and best to eat) was dry toast and a mostly raw steak. As he passed the sitting room, he could hear Molly telling the kids how to clean and what to clean, and felt bad that he had been neglecting his promise to help.

"Moony!" Sirius was standing at the bottom of the stairs, holding a bag of rats. "Is she going to eat?"

"Hopefully." Remus said. "I made a deal with her."

"Oh?" Sirius asked, climbing the stairs towards Remus.

"She wants to know about Tatiana, I told her I'd tell her the story if she ate something."

"I always liked when manipulative Moony came out."

"It's not manipulation.'' Remus said patiently. "Sirius, you remember how bad I got when I refused to eat, right?"

"Yes, I still have the scar." Sirius said. "However, you said once that she was smaller than you, right?"

Remus nodded.

"Then she'll be smaller than me as well." Sirius said. "We'll be fine."

"Do you think we should bring Andromeda over here for the morning after?" Remus asked.

"She'd kill us all." Sirius said. "I doubt Tonks has told her that she's not taking Wolfsbane this month, and I know Andromeda, she will kill each and every one of us for letting Tonks do this. Anyway, Dumbledore sent a letter. Harry's trial is on the twelfth. And you two are asked to be at the Ministry on the fourteenth."

"Is it a hearing?"

"For Harry, yes. For you two, he didn't say." Sirius said. "At least the Ministry was polite enough to wait a few days after the moon."

"That might be where their politeness ends." Remus said, and Sirius nodded.

"I would imagine it'll just be a formal reprimand. You know, the usual spiel. Don't do it again, here's a warning." Sirius said, continuing up the stairs towards Buckbeak's room. "Of course, knowing the Ministry, they'll be looking for any slip up to discipline any of you again. They hate werewolves, they hate Harry right now, can you imagine how satisfied they'd be to snap your wands?"

Remus watched Sirius disappear up the stairs, and then entered Tonks' room again, unsurprised that she was asleep again. He had been told by his own parents that he slept most of the time leading up to his earliest transformations, and he had witnessed a few new werewolves who suffered exactly as Tonks was currently, even though she had been a werewolf a couple of years now, this was still the first transformation without potions aiding her. He wondered if he should tell her about their appointment with the Ministry now, or wait until after the moon.

"I can't tell you anything if you're sleeping, can I?" Remus asked, and she huffed.

"Well, I'm not sleeping now, am I?" She asked, rolling onto her back and sitting up. He set the tray on her lap and she sighed. "You're really going to force me to eat?"

"I would never dream of it. However, if your mother were to find out..."

"I hate you."

"Duly noted." Remus said, and then held up the book he had tucked beneath his arm. "If you're still interested in Tatiana."

"I am." She said quickly, and he sat on the end of the bed.

"The myth is about a woman, named Tatiana-"

"Wait, you mean to tell me that the myth of Tatiana... is about someone named Tatiana?" Tonks asked, and he sighed.

"The myth is that Tatiana was a werewolf, bitten as a teenager." Remus continued. "She was able to control her transformations, and didn't suffer like other werewolves did, because her body became used to the transformation. She was able to blend in with Muggle and Wizarding communities, and didn't have to live in seclusion like so many of us."

"How was she able to control her transformations?" Tonks asked.

Remus shrugged. "I don't think it's known. For a while, I thought it was because she was rumoured to be an alpha, but Greyback is one as well, and he can't control his." He said. "Anyway, the myth says she married a Muggle named Nathaniel McCallum and was never outed as a werewolf-"

"McCallum?" Tonks asked. "You know what's strange? My great great grandparents were named Tatiana and Nathaniel McCallum."

"Were they really, or are you joking?"

"Why would I joke about that, Remus? That seems silly." Tonks said. "If I remember correctly, they got married and had a son also named Nathaniel, and they both died when he was young, and the second Nathaniel is my Dad's grandfather."

"Is he still alive?"

"God, no." Tonks said. "Poor bloke was born in 1897, he died years ago. Anyway, they were all Muggles, it's just a strange coincidence."

"Your Dad isn't a Muggle, though."

"Well, no, he's Muggleborn." Tonks said.

"Huh." Remus said after a moment. "It's interesting, though... It has been rumoured that Muggleborns are descended from squibs-"

"Is that it, though?" Tonks asked. "The entire myth is that she was a werewolf who could control her transformations?"

Remus nodded.

"And it ends with her getting married, living among Muggles and magic alike."

"Yes."

"Is there really a book about that?" She asked, gesturing to the book in his hands.

"No, this is about the real Tatiana, and it's really only a chapter about her."

"I'm sorry?" She asked. "There was actually someone named Tatiana?"

"Well, probably a lot of people named Tatiana, it's not an uncommon name." Remus said. "However, we did have a deal, and you haven't eaten anything yet. I'll read it to you while you eat."

She narrowed her eyes at him, but picked up a piece of toast as Remus opened the book. "The myth of Tatiana began circulating around 1899, and is largely believed to be based on the story of Tatiana Gwynne, later known as Tatiana McCallum after her marriage in 1897. The myth claims Tatiana was a werewolf capable of controlling her transformations- a rumour that would later lead to her execution at the age of twenty four. It is known that Tatiana Gwynne was able to change and manipulate her appearance(it is widely speculated she may have been an undocumented Metamorphmagus), but whether she was infected with Lycanthropy remains unknown. Her son, Nathaniel McCallum was born a Squib, and orphaned after his father died shortly before his birth and his mother was executed one day after his birth."

"She was executed?" Tonks asked. "For what?"

"Murder." Remus said. "However, people have speculated she wasn't the murderer. There's not a lot of information in here, but it might answer any question you're about to come up with."

"Then, keep reading?"

"Tatiana Gwynne was the third of five sisters, one of the only three to make it to adulthood. Her eldest sister, Annalise(born in 1869), died in 1874 at the age of five during an outbreak of Dragon Pox. This outbreak also claimed the lives of the second daughter, Isabelle(born in 1871). In 1875, the Gwynne family had twin daughters, Elison and Deidre, both of who would eventually marry into the Moody family and the Malfoy family, respectively-"

"Wait, the Moody and Malfoy families?" Tonks demanded.

"That is what it says, yes." Remus said patiently. "Tatiana began to attend Hogwarts in 1884 at the age of eleven, sorted into the House of Slytherin. Her sisters would begin attending in 1886, and both would be sorted into the House of Ravenclaw. In 1891, shortly after Tatiana completed her Hogwarts education, she was attacked by a werewolf. Whether or not she was infected remains unknown, but is widely believed to have been the case-"

"How do they not know?" Tonks asked as she tore the toast apart. "She either was, or she wasn't."

"She could have hidden the condition." Remus said. "Found a way to keep anyone from knowing. If you think about how badly werewolves are treated now, can you imagine how bad it could have been a hundred years ago? Besides, she may have been a Metamorphmagus."

"Really?"

"She was known to have been able to manipulate and control every aspect of her appearance, believed by wizards to be a Metamorphmagus but Muggles believed she was a shapeshifter, and rumours began to spread among werewolves that she could transform without the moon."

"But werewolves can't transform without the moon, that's-"

"The idea, yes." Remus said. "However, you can see why the idea of controlling transformations is very popular among werewolves, right?"

She nodded. "I wonder if it's possible."

"Unfortunately, I'm not a Metamorphmagus so I wouldn't know." Remus said. "However,-"

"I am." Tonks said.

"Right." Remus said. "Which is why I don't support the idea of you using that to get close to the alpha of the pack you'll be joining. Being a Metamorphmagus can be hereditary to a degree, right-"

"Usually, but no one in my family is."

"Right, usually." Remus corrected himself. "Anyway, that's why Tatiana was executed."

"What, because she was a Metamorphmagus?" Tonks asked. "That's-"

"She was known by the Ministry for causing trouble. She was able to control her own appearance, and it's easy to blame the outcast." Remus explained. "Tatiana was put on trial three separate times by the Ministry of Magic for performing magic in front of Muggles, and after the third trial, her wand was taken and snapped. Tatiana was disowned by her family 1893, and in March of 1897, married a Muggle by the name of Nathaniel McCallum. Rumour that she was a werewolf escalated after the birth of her only son in August of 1897- only five months after her marriage. The seemingly short pregnancy coincides with the length of a typical female werewolf pregnancy, and her monthly disappearances only fueled the rumours. In 1896, a string of attacks on the Muggle village Tatiana lived in left her husband and countless Muggles dead. Tatiana, known by the locals for her ability to change appearance, was blamed. She was executed by unknown means on August 19th, 1897. Her son would be sent to live with his grandparents, who placed him in a Muggle orphanage when it was learned he was a squib. Tatiana's sisters would never meet their nephew."

"That's it?" Tonks asked. "No information about her son?"

Remus shrugged. "There's probably information in Muggle records somewhere, but he was a squib, there wouldn't be information in any Ministry records.'' Remus said. "Out of curiosity, do you have a family tree?"

"Well, Mum got blasted off of it, so no."

"I meant for your father's side, actually." Remus said.

"I don't know, I don't believe so." Tonks said. "Why?"

"Like I said earlier, it's interesting that your great great grandmother shares the name of an assumed Metamorphmagus, and you're a Metamorphmagus..."

"You can't honestly think I'm related to Tatiana Gwynne." Tonks said. "I'm more interested in whether or not a Metamorphmagus can control their transformations."

"If it's hereditary-"

"Her son should have been one, then." Tonks said. "And he wasn't."

"He was a squib, though, and he was born in 1895 as well..."

She sighed loudly. "I'll ask my Dad if he has any information about his family, but I'm telling you, it seems pretty improbable. I just found it interesting."
