Tilly had made sure the beds were turned down while Aurora got the boys ready for bed. Exiting the bathroom, both boys ran to their beds. 

"You both know where my room is, right?" Aurora asked, following Regulas. "If for any reason you need, you're welcome to come and wake me"

"So if we have a bad dream" Regulas asked, she nodded as she tucked him in.

Kissing his head, "Anything" she moved to do the same to Sirius, "Sleep well boys"

"Goodnight" was called out from both. 

Aurora exited the room to find Marvolo waiting. She continued on to the library, she didn't want the boys to hear anything. Entering, she poured them both a glass of Firewhiskey. 

"So, what are your plans for Dumbledore?" Marvolo asked.

Aurora sighed and plopped on the couch in a very undignified manner. "He needs to die. I'm not sure how to do it but I want him gone before Sirius starts Hogwarts."

Marvolo stared at her, "When do you plan to kill Orion and Walburga"

"If Orion would agree to let me have the boys, I'll let him live. I know you can use him. That banshee dies though, she tortures Sirius. Crucio's him. I'll make sure she can never hurt him again" Marvolo watched as the beautiful witch seethed.

"What else have you planned" He wanted to know everything.

"Fenrir Greyback, he's biting children and needs to die. One child he bit was an uncle to me. Sweetest man but as a werewolf, his life was shit. I'm planning to help him and others that are infected" Aurora stares at a quiet Marvolo. 

"I can handle Greyback for you. I'll think on Orions usefulness" he grinned when she gave a small laugh. Gathering his courage, he asked "What about marriage"

Aurora was silent for a moment. "I never thought I would live this long. I've never thought of it. Besides, who could I marry? I'm a time travelling witch, there's no way I could marry and keep that secret."

"What if the person already knew" he needed to know if she felt any of the things he was feeling.

Her head snapped up, green eyes catching red, "What are you saying" she asked quietly.

Marvolo stood, walking over to the couch she was on. "Let me court you. We're perfect together on paper, let's see if we could put that in to reality"

Aurora had never thought he would ask her to court. She had never known him to be with anyone. "Why me" she whispered.

Marvolo took a deep breath, "That first day we bumped into each other, I was captivated by you. Every time I went to the alley, I looked for you. You're beautiful, strong, compassionate, and dark. Plus, you're not scared of me" he gives a small laugh at the end.

Aurora was speechless. What could she say to that? "What about the boys? I won't send them away"

"I wouldn't want you to. I'll even help you save more kids if you want" Aurora stared at the man before her, she didn't see any hint of Voldemort, only a man who wanted to save their world from becoming like the muggles. 

"If I say yes" she sees the hope on his face, "You have to promise me you won't ignore my advice. Also, you will let me help you make our world how it should be"

Marvolo nodded, "I promise. I want you by my side as we make this world better."

Sirius woke to the birds chirping. He couldn't believe how much his life had changed overnight. He would never forget the angel who saved him in the bookstore. Aurora had never met him or his brother and she offered to take them. He felt so safe with her, safer than with his parents. Sitting up in bed, he looked across to his little brother.
