CEP's POV
"Brother, please..." Amphitrite's voice pleaded.
"Don't! Abraxas has already taken the bastard under the Malfoy name. The least you can do now is accept this." Another woman said icily.
"Don't call him that!"
"It's what he is, after all... if I remember correctly, you two weren't married, were you? The only good thing that bastard has taken to our family name is the fact that he is the Heir of a forgotten family."
Harry gasped as he heard a slap.
"Don't ever... ever... speak about my son like that ever again!" He heard Amphitrite hiss at the other woman in the room.
"Sister." Abraxas' voice said sternly. "Genevieve, lower that hand immediately. And no, Genevieve, I don't want to hear about how my sister slapped you, you did mention Callisto's lack of blood right after all. Now, Sister... Callisto may be your son, but he still is an Heir and a Natural Bearer."
"Why it has to be Him? Why can't Kari choose for himself? I don't see you forcing Lucius into a marriage."
"Sister, like it or not: Callisto has no father. Blood right or not, no Wizard will ever look at him and see past the part that his mother never got married."
Harry jumped as a hand appeared on his shoulder, looking up he found his 'cousin' Lucius Malfoy. Cousin Lucius smiled but didn't say a thing, also listening in on the conversation on the other side of the door.
"The boy will be lucky if this Wizard even accepts the engagement."
"Genevieve, that is enough. Tom Riddle doesn't set for anything less but the best. The fact that Callisto is his Equal means a lot. Means that Callisto is more powerful right now in one single arm, than you'll ever be with your full Magical Core." Abraxas hissed to his wife and Harry felt Cousin Lucius squeeze his shoulder. "I invited him over, Sister. I don't need to tell him immediately about the Equal thing. To see what he thinks of Callisto and only then tell him about this."
"If... if he refuses the engagement you won't try to sell him to anyone else, will you?"
"No."
Cousin Lucius leaned down so he would manage to whisper to Harry's ear.
"We better go now, before someone catches us." Harry nodded and Cousin Lucius pulled him away. "I'm sorry about" [ma mère.] "What she said wasn't really nice."
"I'm not magically powerful, I'm just me. Why did Lord... Uncle Abraxas said that I'm stronger in one arm than she is in her whole?"
"From the little I've heard of your Equal, the man is really powerful. Besides the Healers checked your Magical Core, so trust me, you are powerful." Cousin Lucius argued, before messing with Harry's hair.
