Chapter 98 || Godson

      After James Potter yelled the truth out and everyone in the noble house of Black heard him very well and stood frozen on their spots staring in disbelief at an almost dead Estella.

      "W-What are you saying?" Sirius managed to choke out with great difficulty, while Remus was wide eyed staring dead at the girl in front of him.

      James looked away briskly finding Amelia's wide eyes which were cursing him really bad. James let out a shuddered breath looking down realising what he just did.

     "I-I–" James was at the loss of words.

      "T-This g-girl is L-Lyra's d-daughter?" Sirius asked in a hoarse voice every word coming out of his mouth bewildered. 

      Amelia turned to look at Estella who was soon going to faint. Her chest rising and falling heavily, her legs slightly shaking. Amelia scrunched her eyes shut in desperation. Why cant anything be normal!?

     "James!– say something!– who is this girl!?" Sirius cried desperately making James look at him. James gulped heavily and said in a small voice "Moony and Lyra's daughter"

    Everyone stared at Estella like they were hit with a large truck, this gurl was Remus' daughter, staring at her for so long, now they could see the similarities, dark brown hair, cheekbones just like Remus, she even had light scars running down her face like Remus.

     "H-How? W-wh–?"

     Sirius was cut by Remus letting out a heavy breath, his mouth parted, he slowly got up approaching the girl standing at a distance from him. While Estella shrank more and more wanting to dissolve in air, not meeting anyone's eyes, and her own eyes pooling with tears as her father was approaching her after knowing about the truth.

    "Y-y-you are...–" Remus breathed out in aless then a whisper, his wide intense eyes making Estella wanting to faint. Not meeting his eyes Estella gave a reluctant short nod.

    Amelia could see Remus' hands shaking, he was internally freaking out, suddenly getting to know that you have a eighteen year old daughter cannot be comprehended easily.

    "W-When were you born?" Remus asked his eyes and face totally red. Estella was on the verge of breaking down she could not even meet her father's eyes.

   "T-Tenth may 1978" Estella said in the same cracking tone. Remus' lips started quivering, he looked like he would collapse any moment.

    "And L-Lyra?" He croaked. Sirius slowly stood up as his sister's name was mentioned. Estella stayed silent for really long, she looked extremely weak as she would breakdown any moment.

    "Lyra's dead!" Amelia said steadily gaining everyone's attention. Amelia saw Estella was frowning, as if she didnt like the idea of lying right now.

    "You knew about this?" Sirius asked in disbelief to his daughter gaining a stiff nod.

    "Maybe that's why Dumbledore was so keen to send me to America, he wanted to correct his mistakes" Amelia said bitterly. Everyone frowned.

   "Who is Lyra?" Harry asked frowning confusedly.

    "L-Lyra was my twin sister, she died that halloween night along with James, Lily and Sierra. Peter, when he blasted that muggle street, Lyra came to me but she too was killed in that blast" Sirius said with the most hurt look on his face. Silence fell in the room.

    "So you are my niece?" Sirius asked in a small voice glancing up at Estella, a small smile forming in his face.

     "And Remus' daughter" Everyone turned to Tonks standing at the end of the room, her eyes bloodshot. Shit.
