Serendipity : The Rebirth of Black Lotus

6. Christmas

In the depth
Of winter, I finally
learned that
There was in me
An invincible summer~~

Severus Snape POV

"WAKE UP"

I heard someone yell as I feel some weight on me but it was harsh like how my father throw things at me it was soft like I could feel the weigh but it didn't hurt instead it comfort me, make me feel warm and loving as I feel something licks me, that confusing "what?" I said as I try to open my eyes and look around to see Ken and his dog all over me and in shock I did what come in my mind I yell like what are you supposed to do when you someone this close to your face after almost being molested by your very own abusive father I sigh

"Ah! Don't be sad, I didn't mean to ruin your peaceful sleep, Its just we have some rules in house including eating our meal together no matter what and we can't break it" he said looking down if I didn't have sense of smell I would probably say that he is an omega like how can alpha be this sweet and innocent "It's okay I, myself am looking forward to have breakfast with you all"
But wouldn't it be rude considering the fact that it is rule for family as to share the familial bond

"Don't be ri-ridi"

"Ridiculous, you mean"

"Ah, yes ridiculous it is, has I was saying don't be ridiculous you are family to now and mother strictly told to get you for breakfast, now hurry up you have 30 min to get ready" he said as I smile and rush to washroom to freshen up. Seems like I walk out pretty quick considering Ken's reaction

"Did you brush your teeth?"

"Yep"

"Take a bath?"

"Yep"

"Dress up?"

"Can't you see" I said in irritation

"Geez, sorry but that was really quick it took just 16 min, anyway let's get going" I nod as I follow him to dinning room

There in the middle lays a big dinning table quite similar to Hogwarts dining table but than again they are also wizards and belongs to house of Lloyd afterall, no wonder they have such antiquity

"So, I heard that your mother was a witch is that true, my boy?" the old man I mean Grandpa asked with a blinding smile, weird, Dumbledore as called me this through out my whole life but it always feel just really unpleasant but hearing it from this old man feels oddly warm. I awkwardly smile back and nod it's not everyday I got asked about my mother this respectfully considering the fact that not many people talk about her and those who does consider her as traitor

"May I asked your mother's name?"

"Sure Gr-Grandpa, and it's Eileen Prince"

"Did you just say Prince as in Prince the Lord of the Sacred 28 House of Magical Britain and the most direct descendant of Slytherin himself" Mr. Lloyd exclaimed in shock, fine even I am shock Lord of Sacred 28 House that's not what I expected and the most direct descendant that makes the Prince nearly immortal and simply untouchable now I am more nervous they probably wouldn't want me what am I supposed to do now, God what sin did I commit

"Adrian stop scaring this little boy,
Sev do you have anything of your mother like some magic thing?" I think as I remembered her letter and her diary

"Well there's mother diary and a letter addressed to her parents" I said hesitately "Very well where are those things?" Grandpa asked
"It's in my house" I answered he nod and asked "Can you perhaps bring that here?" I nod "But don't your mother have her wand, it's easier to find that way" Ken asked
"Son, did you complete your study of Customs and Traditions of House of Slytherin?" Mr. Lloyd asked Ken making him red as he went back to eating quietly "Well why do you think that that the tradition book of House of Slytherin differently?" Mr. Lloyd asked teasing his son, how I wish to have family like this
