Hadrian's POV
Lily decided to make lunch today.
She was also a very good chef. The food tasted excellent.
Teddy decided that he wanted to sit on my lap all lunchtime and stole from my plate. Fred and George were sitting on either side of me and were feeding Teddy in turns while I was eating.
After lunch, when all of us gathered at the lounge, Draco flooed in.
"The people are talking about your divorce, Hadrian." Draco said.
"Was it Skeeter?" I asked.
Draco nodded.
"Anything bad?" I asked.
"She wrote that you left a beautiful wife like Ginerva to be with someone. She said that you were not loyal." Draco said with a sigh as he sat beside dad.
"Do you have the article?" I asked.
He nodded and gave the paper.
Before I could take it, Fred snatched it from Draco.
After he finished reading, he gave the paper George. When he was done, he passed to Dad.
Dad gave the paper back to Draco.
"Should I not read it?" I asked.
"No." Dad said. His voice was monotonous. He was really angry. Tom was cautious after looking at Dad.
When I looked at my twins, they were looking feral.
"Is it that bad?" I asked.
"Hades, do you have any dirt on Skeeter?" My twins asked.
"She is an unregistered animagus. She hasn't registered yet." I said.
"Why didn't anyone in the Hogwarts staff know about this?" Dad asked.
"She was careful not to be seen by anyone of you." I said.
"How did you know?" Tom asked.
"Hermione. When Skeeter published an article about Hermione and me, she went down to Hogsmeade to find how she does it. That was when she knew Skeeter was an animagus." I said. "She must have done it because her name was going down the mud too. She never responded like that when it was just me."
That was when I felt another magical signature enter the wards.
I smiled and gave Teddy to Fred and got up.
When I walked to the backyard, I found Skeeter lying on the ground.
Dad, my twins, and Draco followed me. James, Lily, Sirius, Remus, Regulus, and Tom glamoured themselves and followed me.
"How nice of you to join us, Rita?" I said in a sweet tone.
"Forgive me, Harry." She begged.
"There is no forgiving after the warnings I gave you last year, Rita. I told you that if you were to write another wrong article about me, you were going down." I said.
She was still in shock to be caught and was mumbling about her being caught and saying sorry.
"After that stunt you pulled last year, I warded the entire house to let any Animagus enter, but unwanted ones and uninvited ones will be stuck to ground, just like how you are now." I said as I levitated her into the house.
When we reached the lounge, I smiled when Kreacher had already put a chair. I put Rita on it and tied her to the chair.
"Who asked you to write that article about me?" I asked.
"No one." She replied.
"Rita, I am going to ask nicely one more time. Who asked you to write the article on me?" I asked.
"No one. I wanted news that could spread like wild fire when released, and your divorce was that news." She said.
"You could have just written that he was divorced with Ginerva. Why make it seem like he was unfaithful?" George asked.
"Only a divorce will not spread. If something else is added, it might." She said.
"So you chose to write that Hades was unfaithful in the marriage?" Fred asked.
"Did you not think for once that it was her who was not being faithful?" I asked.
My twins, dad, Draco, Tom, James, Lily, Remus, Sirius, and Regulus looked at me shocked, and so did Skeeter.
"When I got the purge, the blocked memories had come back. Whenever I found her cheating, Ron, Hermione, Ginerva, and Molly would erase my memories. This was there in the reasons for divorce, I just haven't said it out loud." I said.
Fred gave Teddy to me and hugged me. George hugged me as well.
"With whom did she cheat on you?" Dad asked.
"A few students from her year, mostly Gryffindors, a few Hufflepuffs and Dean Thomas. He even tried to mock me while they were erasing my memories." I said.
