Deceptio || An Undercover Death Eater || (This is a Harry Potter fanfiction)

Anais Vautrin. A pure-blood born in England but raised in France.

...only things aren't that simple.

Anais is one with a secret. A dark secret that can cost her her life if she is not careful.

Her parents were death eaters. One of the most disturbed. After the Dark Lord's first downfall, they went into hiding by fleeing to France in hopes of not only avoiding Azkaban but to also gain the opportunity to raise their unplanned newborn daughter, Anais.

They were believed to be dead after years of hiding. Other Death Eaters constantly mentioned their names for exchange of leniency in prison, but the ministry never seemed to listen.

When the Dark Lord returned, their names were brought up once more by prisoners. Only this time, the ministry decided to look into the case.

Eventually, the deranged couple is captured and sent to prison. The custody of Anais went to her aunt, a talented witch and widow. She gives Anais the wand that belonged to her husband, and homeschools her for about a year until she is finally ready to attend Hogwarts.

Knowing Anais's family history, Professor Dumbledore welcomes her to Hogwarts and promises to keep her parents' reputation buried.

But what happens once Anais realizes the chances of Voldemort finding out about her existence? Will he kill her because of her parents treacherous action? Or perhaps, just maybe, she'll pretend to be on his side...
