Summary
Born on March 6, 1980, Arcturus Black, the son of Sirius Black, was never supposed to be at Hogwarts; he was never even expected to be a wizard or live to see his 11th birthday.Yet, against all odds, there he was; in every moment of Hogwarts from 1991 until his last day. He was there in every mischief that was managed or was left unmanaged; he was in every laughter, every tear, and every moment of pain that was shared.Ever since he was a baby, dark magic pulled the tides of his soul like the moon to the waves of the sea water that was the color of his eyes, he knew the waves would always come back so he braced himself each time, because without the waves the water would turn into mud. He knew how to swim against the waves, but pulling himself out of mud was never his specialty.This is the untold story of Arcturus Alphard Black, the forgotten last heir of the ancient and most noble House of Black. The one that vanished one day, never to return, never to be spoken of, never to be remembered.Note: Other pairings are not tagged. I prefer them to be a surprise.
