Sirius Black makes the smart choice and doesn't go after Pettigrew when James and Lily are killed. Instead he takes Harry from the cottage and raises him away from Dumbledore's reach as Albus tries to gain control over Harry's life to use him as a weapon when the Dark Lord finally returns.

With Dumbledore failing in this Harry is raised by Sirius at Black manor living in secret to avoid the attention of the wizarding world and Dumbledore until Harry is ready to return at the age of 11 and throw Dumbledore for a loop.

I'm his | Draco Malfoy by moonychild_
40 parts Complete Mature
Everybody is shocked when Olivia arrives at Hogwarts during the 5th year. No one seems to know anything about her, except Dumbledore. And many want to know... Names and characters (except the main character) are taken from JK Rowling's work. I don't own any of them. Nevertheless, the story is my invention. I don't agree with Rowling's homotransphobic views. DISCLAIMER: In this story: Narcissa and Bella are step-sisters and are not blood-related. The only challenges Harry had to face were stealing the Philosopher's Stone from Lord Voldemort and sending his ghost away in the Chamber of Secret. The Three Wizards Tournament didn't involve Barty Crouch Junior at all and everything went well, in fact Cedric didn't die in the last challenge. Sirius was at Azkaban until Harry went to Elementary school, then he was freed by Dumbledore and was sent home; he needed to prove to the Ministry of Magic he was capable of taking care of himself and only after six years he found out about his Godson. Harry has been living at Grimmauld Place with Sirius ever since he went to Hogwarts. Lord Voldemort hasn't risen completely yet. Luna, Ginny and Astoria are all in the same year. Remus works at the Ministry of Magic and comes to visit Sirius once in a while. Olivia, the main character, grew up half with Bellatrix and half with Sirius, but only in the present time he could win the battle with Bellatrix and send Olivia to Hogwarts. I hope I didn't forget anything. FF! AU! Smut scenes-Strong language TW: SA, VIOLENCE, BLOOD, DEATH, SEX

Sirius Black is rotting in Azkaban, a murderer in the eyes of the wizarding world. But while the world believes him to be a villain, his two-year-old daughter is handed over to the so-called care of Albus Dumbledore. The great wizard, however, is far from a savior. He abandons the child to a seemingly benevolent orphanage, a place that is, in reality, a hidden front for something far more sinister: the Red Room. As a master of secrets and manipulation, Dumbledore knew everything. He knew Sirius was innocent. He knew Peter Pettigrew was the true culprit. He even knew when Peter, in a moment of cowardice, came to him begging for help, and he turned him away, sealing the fate of the Potters. But Dumbledore's secrets don't stop there. He orchestrated a lie so grand it fooled everyone, claiming Harry Potter was the child of James and Lily, when in fact, he and Hermione are long-lost twins, separated and hidden for a purpose only Dumbledore knows. This story is not just about a forgotten child; it's about a man who knew every tragic event and every broken life, and did nothing. It's about a father's desperate fight to escape and find his daughter, now being molded into a weapon. It's a dark twist on a familiar tale, where the Boy Who Lived is a fraud, a wizarding conspiracy runs parallel to a global one, and a little girl with a famous last name is becoming the world's most dangerous assassin.
