Raised By A Vampire

Chapter 1

***This is a crossover/au. The times for HP will be closer to TVD timeline. 

Damon wasn't one that could be called fatherly. He was known more for his playboy ways but one day changed all of that. He had friends of the magical nature, not nature witches but more powerful core witches. He had actually come across them by accident. 

Damon had tried to make a snack out of a lovely redhead one night while in England. Said snack decided to hex him when he attacked. He had been so surprised, he could only stand there and stare at her.

"What are you?" He asked, rubbing his arm where the hex had hit him. 

"Witch, and you're a vampire." The redhead growled, "Your morals must be shit to attack a pregnant woman."

Damons eyes snapped to her stomach. Yup, she was pregnant. "Sorry, I honestly didn't notice." He held his hands up in surrender. 

The redhead glared, "The least you could do after attacking me is walk me home. My husband is most likely worried."

That was how Damon was introduced to Lily Potter, her husband James and two of their friends, Sirius and Remus. He spent a lot of time with James and Lily, Sirius and Remus were always there when not on missions. It was an odd experience for him. These people didn't care that he was a vampire or that he wasn't magical. They treated him better than his own brother did. Lily became almost a sister to him.

The night that changed everything was one Damon would never forget. He had been out grabbing a bite, Halloween was a great night to get away with freely feeding. When he had finished, he had gone to see the little lady that had him and everyone else wrapped around her finger.

Hazel was an interesting little girl. She hardly ever cried and didn't seem to mind his vampire face. She had also shown signs of early accidental magic. Her parents had been amazed. Damon thought she was a sweet kid. He remembered Stefan as a baby, Hazel was a million times better a baby.

Approaching his friends home, he felt something was off. Seeing the hole in the roof, he flashed inside. Damon saw James first, he could tell his friend was dead. Flashing upstairs, he found Lily next. She was sprawled before the crib, moving closer, he looked for Hazel. She wasn't there but a small bit of blood was. 

Hearing voices entering the home, Damon flashed out. Hopefully Sirius or Remus had Hazel. He stayed hidden, watching as people combed through the house. He needed to find her, she had been hurt. Hearing on of the men talk, he knew who had taken her. Flashing away, he headed to the last place Lily would want her daughter.

Dumbledore had been a part of many conversations Lily and Damon had. She didn't trust the man like others, thought he had a plan for her daughter. That was why Lily had told him where to find her muggle sister. Lily was smart, she had declared Damon as a guardian. He had tried to deny her but knew he could hide the girl until she was Hogwarts age. Lily had given him all the information he would need to raise Hazel. They had both hoped he wouldn't have too but you can't always get your way.

Damon watched the old man with a sneer. He could see why Lily didn't trust him, he wouldn't either. She had been right, the old man had ignored the wills of James and Lily, he was planning to leave Hazel with these people. Damon wouldn't let that happen. He had promised Lily, and he would keep that promise. 

The cat woman left, as did the very large man. Dumbledore stared at Hazel with a look that made Damon shudder. Once that man left, he moved forward. He couldn't believe they had left her on the doorstep in the winter night! Wouldn't they be in for a surprise when it came time for Hazel to return.
