James and Regulus did their best for their baby. They really did. They loved the child more than anything, and they had a long, wonderful life planned for their little family. That went down the drain one cold night in a cave, one death among the many that were destined to follow. Astrid Black understands their place in the world. They are the heir to The Most Noble and Ancient House of Black, child of Regulus Black and someone their grandparents have kept a secret for as long as they can remember. Astrid is exactly what their grandparents wanted. They are smart, respectful, and never question their beliefs. It seemed like they would make the perfect heir. Maybe the third time really was the charm? That was all put to question when Astrid found out who their other parent was, none other than James Potter. This throws Astrid into a world of deceit and lies going back years before their birth, long before their name was ever considered, let alone spoken. They took it all in stride and followed all the rules. They trusted their grandparents and stayed in line. They ignored everything screaming at them that something was wrong. Until they didn't.
