Prologue
[Paris, France – 1960-year June 24]
In beautiful apartment a wizarding family was having a meeting with friends.
A man with black hair and blue eyes was sitting alongside his wife and 6 months daughter on the couch. On the other side of the coffee table were sitting Izolda Sayre and Rectus Lestrange.
“So... Why did you really invite us here?” asked Rectus as he drinks his coffee.
“We wanted to ask, if you would like to become godparents of Elizabeth in case, we are not here anymore. Killed or imprisoned.” said women with brown looks and gray eyes – Mensis Tenebris nee Gaunt.
“We will be honored.” said Izolda for her fiancé. Hearing it both young parents grinned at their old friends.
“Great! We will now have to go to Gringotts and make it official.” Amandum Tenebris said as he got his daughter on his lap and then lift her up to his torso. He stood up at the same time as his guests and wife.
“Let’s go then!” shouted happily Izolda.
And the five went to the bank to make two of the godparents to the angel they had with them.
At the end of the day family went back to their home not expecting to find two men in black in their house. The thieves have a muggle weapon and seeing the owners of the house they were robing they panicked.
Shouts were heard that night in the apartment but because of the silencing charms no one outside heard them.
The two men killed the adults but when they saw little girl looking at them with tears in her beautiful blue eyes, they couldn’t bring themselves to kill her. So, they stayed in the house, hide bodies of killed people and took care of her. That is until one day (a week after unfortunate event) a man in dark cloak got in.
With one wave of his wand, he killed them as he walked towards the little girl's room, where she oblivious to the word was playing with her enchanted dolls.
As he entered the playroom, he and his followers were meet with dolls flying around the selling. When young girl looked at them all toys fell to the ground and her once dark brown hair become blond almost white, and her skin paled. She looked almost like a female copy of their leader who looked shocked at child's actions.
His followers expected to be ordered to take care of the child while their leader would be dealing with more important meters. How big was their surprise when the man took the little girl in his arms and turned to them with emotionless face.
“You all know what you are meant to be doing. Go and spread the word about my return. Go brothers and sisters!” he said and his followers right away left, leaving him with his good friend and right-hand Vinda Rosie.
“What are you intending to do with her?” she asked as soon as they were alone.
“She will grow to be a powerful witch. I decided that I will blood adopt her as her new father. She will be my successor if she will be willing to. Her magic is strong, and we cannot let these fools at the Ministry throw her into muggle orphanage. It will destroy her. If you want to, I will allow you to blood adopt her as a mother.” he answered, his eyes not leaving little girl in his arms who now was sleeping soundly with her head on his shoulder.
“I would be honored Mr. Grindelwald.” replied Rosie, her eyes also not leaving little girl out of her sight.
