AN: Alright everyone, I found good reasons for all of the different options so in the end I went by popular vote and here are the results:

In fourth place with two votes we have option two where he and Anastasia enter into a temporary relationship before eventually breaking up.

In third place with nine votes we have option one where Anastasia/Harry is the main pairing

In second place with fourteen votes we have option four where Anastasia became like his sister

And the winner is option three with twenty four votes.

Also to those who are against it due to Harry being only fourteen (physically and mentally) the pairing isn't going to surface for a year or two in the story so don't worry. Now votes are to be cast about who you want to be the main 'Potter Wife' and if you want a separate wife for Peverell.

Harry Potter and the Heart of Power

Chapter 4

-Harry-

Laughing happily he sipped from his glass of champagne, his arm linked with Anastasia's as they walked around the floor of the Casino, a party going on full swing to celebrate its opening night. It had been a week since the article had come out and excitement had continued to grow more and more as people learned about the casino that was soon to open, the fires only further fueled by articles in 'The Daily Storm' and small comments from the goblins. "I never expected this sort of turnout," he said happily as Anastasia subtly guided him around the room through gentle nudges, leading him to the areas where the most influential people were as he greeted them "due to the laws I put in about having to be of age to come in here I didn't expect for this many people to show.".

"What? And miss the chance to not only 'win it big' but to see another business started by Harry Potter and managed by his legendary partner Lord Peverell?" Anastasia asked in mock horror as she pretended to be faint.

"Oh ha, ha, very funny," he groused good naturedly, his grin showing his words lacked any bite in them "but this is still a good thing for us. So far you've introduced me to Amelia Bones who heads the DMLE, Madame Longbottom, and Algernon Croaker who heads the Department of Mysteries. You see any other people you wish for me to meet tonight?".

"No but I see someone I would very much like to avoid," Anastasia said nervously, stiffening on his arm as he turned and saw a blonde couple walking into the casino that he recognized as Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy from pictures Anastasia had shown him "them as well as the Minister for now.".

"I know the perfect way to do so," he said with a smile causing Anastasia to look at him in confusion before he led her to the ballroom and gave her a smile "may I have this dance my lady?" he asked with a grin which she returned.

"I would be honored my Lord." She said as one of his hands took hers while the other one met her waist and she placed her free hand on his shoulder, elegantly moving onto the dance floor with several other couples.

"It's a good thing you gave me those dance lessons." he said softly as the danced across the floor, several of the other couples stopping their own dances to watch them move, neither of them noticing Natalie with her camera taking a picture of them in a dancer's embrace, smiling into one of each other's eyes happily.

"Natalie seemed to enjoy it as well," Anastasia said with a small laugh as the twirled around "she was most eager to help in the lessons when she learned you were still learning to dance.".

"Well who was I to complain?" he said charismatically "Two breathtakingly beautiful women wanted for me to dance with them, I would have to be a fool to turn down such an offer.".

"You're learning well I see." Anastasia said with a smile which only deepened when he dipped her low, pulling her back up and against him with a flourish as the continued, neither noticing that the other dancing couples had stopped and all eyes were upon them, every guest wanting to try and learn more about the rapidly rising 'Lord Peverell'.

"The lesson are enjoyable and I have a very good teacher," he replied happily as the dance began to wind down "that would help with learning what I'm being taught.". As the song ended he bowed to her and kissed the back of her hand before feeling a presence behind him.

"Greetings Lord Peverell," the oily voice of Lucius Malfoy said as he turned around Anastasia intertwining her fingers with his at the sight of her brother "may I cut in and share a dance with my sister?".

Staring the man in the eye warily he shared a glance with Anastasia who sent him a look that said even though she wouldn't like it they would have to do it causing him to sigh mentally. "Of course Lord Malfoy," he said calmly "who am I to stand in between a brother and sister spending time together. Perhaps I may share a dance with your wife while you spend time with my date for the evening, such a beautiful woman should not be abandoned when the night is still young after all.". As he said this fingered a silver pocket watch that he carried on his person, using it so send a magical signal, alerting the new 'security' he had acquired.

"Of course Lord Peverell," Lucius forced out but he could tell the man wanted to refuse but chose not to for the simple reason that he was currently an unknown in the political world in regards to how much power he truly held "just be sure to watch where you place your hands.".

"I'm affronted that you would make such an acquisition Lord Malfoy," he said, making sure to alter his tone to convey an artificial sound of surprise and indignation "I would never do such a thing to a married woman.".

He relished Lucius' wince when the Malfoy Lord realized his slip up before the greasy fool quickly backtracked "It was not meant to be an insult against you Lord Peverell," Lucius reasoned in what he could tell was forced calmness "I simply know how great my wife's beauty is and have seen how many a man have lost themselves in her presence.".

"Have no fear Lord Malfoy," he said in a false friendliness "I have spent a great deal of time around your sister and I have yet to meet a woman who could make me lose myself after spending time around such a breathtaking woman.".

"Yes, well if you'll excuse me I wish to take that dance now." Lord Malfoy said before gripping Anastasia's arm tightly and dragging her onto the dance floor.

Giving a mental sigh he turned to Narcissa Malfoy who seemed somewhat relieved to be away from her husband "May I have this dance Lady Malfoy." he asked congenially.

"You may Lord Peverell." she said somewhat hesitantly as she offered her hand to him as he elegantly pulled her onto the dance floor, giving her a gentle smile throughout the dance but all the while keeping an eye on Lucius and Anastasia, seeing the anger in the Malfoy Lord's eyes as Lucius continued to subtly lead Anastasia closer and closer to a side area that led to the restrooms.

Towards the end of the dance a loud crash was heard as a rather short and somewhat dirty looking man burst into the ballroom in a panic, trying to push his way through the crowed which admittedly backed away but that was likely more to due to the man's filthy appearance than anything else, when the man flinched, letting out a strange gurgle, before dropping like a stone as he saw a dart in the man's back. "I'm afraid I must cut our dance short dear Lady," he said charismatically, kissing Lady Malfoy's hand as he stood and strode over to the unconscious man "but a situation has arisen.".

"Attention everyone," he called loudly as the people that had just begun to panic turned towards him "there is no reason to fear. This man is simply unconscious due to the actions of my Casino's security group.".

"Security?" a man he recognized as the Minister of Magic asked nervously.

"Yes Security," he said with a nod "their main job in the casino is to remove those who break any of its rules and capture any that act violently or try to flee as well as a few other similar roles. Phoenix!" he called out as a man in a tuxedo walked over to him.

"Yes Lord Peverell." The man, now revealed to be Phoenix, stated in a military fashion.

"This here is Phoenix," he explained to the crowd which had grown as more and more attention was drawn towards them as Anastasia made her way over in relief while he could see the nervousness in Lucius Malfoy's eyes "one of my top security personnel. Phoenix, what actions did this man do to warrant his…situation?".

"The man, Mundungus Fletcher, attempted to transfigure the lower value poker chips he had purchased into higher value ones to sell back in an attempt to scam the Casino Lord Peverell." Phoenix said in a military style "The enchantments on the poker chips alerted us to his scam and we quickly made our way over and confronted the man about it, telling him to return his poker chips and leave the casino immediately and that we would be escorting him out. Instead of coming calmly the man attempted to stun Manticore before I Chimera grabbed Fletcher's wand causing the man to bolt. I was the one who fired the dart into him.".

"Thank you Phoenix," he said with a nod "you may return to the festivities.".

"Yes Lord Peverell." The security agent said with a salute before walking back over to where he had been before.

"All of my agents are under a glamour and go by code names when on the job," he explained to the guests who were confused by the names of his employees "now if you'll excuse me I must go find one Amelia Bones whom I met earlier this evening. I believe it is her department where I turn in such individuals." Before he waved his wand, the trace not working in the alley due to all the magic there, and levitated the man away to Amelia Bones who sent one of her auror guards to take the man to a cell at the ministry.

After that the rest of the evening went off flawlessly, Lucius Malfoy not attempting to get Anastasia alone again after seeing the military skill and precision of his security and Minister Fudge had left shortly afterwards, the greedy little man most likely upset about not being able to scam the casino himself. All in all a fair amount of profit was made that night before the last guest left, the employees all closed up their areas for the night, and Anastasia dragged him up to the penthouse apartment which was his home to interrogate him about the security force he had kept as a surprise.

AN: Alright, here's a vote for all of you and this one is popular vote only for my selection process but I would appreciate reasoning. Would you, my readers, prefer if Harry kept his identity as Lord Peverell a secret for as long as possible (revealing it in probably third or fourth year but maybe second) or for him to reveal it during the sorting or around that time?

AN2: Alright, as I mentioned before I'm trying to select the main pairing now that Ana is going to eventually become a concubine so the girls that are, right now, my primary candidates for the main wife or wives (should house Peverell get its own wife) are:

Susan Bones of Hufflepuff

Lilith Moon of Slytherin

Natalie Blackpool (his reporter)

AN3: My friends and i are working on a comedy channel where we read horrible fanfictions in a very 'posh' environment so if you have a horrible fanfiction you know about, please let me know. If it's bad enough we'll read it.
