Detailed Summary

Harry was content with his life. The wizarding world was slowly recovering from the war. Harry spent his days and nights for the betterment of the wizarding world. Though he hated it, he goes to the Gala's and every other function the ministry urges him to. The war however, has left a deeper impact on the society and the Ministries of Europe has come up with a Marriage Law to set a proper balance. Every unattached witch and wizard above the age of 25 are among the ones getting betrothed. Practically an arranged marriage. Harry was shocked but he understood the importance of this and decided to go with it. It was not as if he had anything in his life.

Avellino Svizzero is an Italian don. He is also the richest man in the wizarding world. Known for his muggle lifestyle, despite being a pure blood, Avellino is known as a man with the soul of a devil and the heart of stone. Father to a six month old kid, Avellino has not even properly seen the kid's face. He was that busy and it was then that he got a call from the Council of Ministries of the Wizarding World. Apparently, he was betrothed to some wizard named Harry Potter. He really didn't have time for this. (Basically he doesn't know who Harry Potter is!)

Part 1

Harry scowled as he looked at the mirror. He looked way too snobby for his liking. But, then again, he had made a commitment to the ministry that he would go. Pulling back now is not an option. He will just have to go with it.

Kingsley considered him a son and Harry knew it. After Kingsley and Andromeda got married, he visits Kingsley's house often and is a family member.

He was happy that Teddy now has a full family. The most important thing is that they were all happy.

Harry did not have a date. Ginny was now married to Neville and Luna married Ronald of all people. Hermione, to Harry's eternal dismay, is married to Blaise Zabini of all people and he was a good enough guy. Then there was Draco Malfoy, his former rival, now married to Astoria Greengrass who keeps her husband in line and Malfoy is head over heels for the Ravenclaw, so he is alright too. Life was getting better for everyone. At 27, Harry only had one regret. He is yet to meet his man.

Finding out he was gay was one thing. Dating Zacharias Smith of all people was stupid. The fucker left him for Cormac Mclaggen, well good riddance anyway. Apparently, he was too clingy.

Well, nothing would matter hereafter. The marriage law was now imposed and the magical mist will give him his partner's name. They will be considered engaged after that and will have to marry within a week.

There was a lack of integration in the society and an uprising was in sight, this time from Muggle-borns. All the intelligence reports suggested as such. To prevent this, the Ministries has come up with the law. There was outrage. However, once the law was explained with the situation at hand, the liberals agreed. It was magically binding anyway.

All the 20,00,000 wizards and 19,76,567 witches will find their partners tonight. And he went or not, he will get the owl. However, he was Ministries symbol. They wanted him to be the symbol and model. To say that he is tensed would be an understatement. It is not every day that you get betrothed to a complete stranger.

"Harry you are being a great role model," smiled Arthur and Harry smiled. Molly patted his head. Both, and all the living Weasley's were on his side.

Draco came over. Ron stood on his other side. He could see them both exchange a dubious look and he almost snorted. It was weird but they both bonded over him and how careless he was about his own life. It was like being the baby of a trio. Astoria kissed Harry on the cheek and leaned into his shoulder. Hermione did the same on the other side.

He smiled. This was his family and he was happy, really. But somehow, something was missing and he might have it now.

Kingsley introduced him to the Irish, German, Spanish and heads of 50 other countries including Italy. The Italian minister surprised Harry. He was ancient and probably as old as Nicolas Flamel. Ron and Draco were joking about it and he turned and rolled his eyes at them which shut them up promptly.

Kingsley smiled at the thousand people in the hall and then in his magicked voice began to speak.

"We are all here to create history. We will mark the beginning of a new era. We have all the names here already," said Kingsley pointing to the scrolls on the table ready to take off once the official inauguration was done. All scrolls were empty and open with the name of one person in it. Soon, when the mist will be set on them, the partner's name will appear. Harry was tensed.

"We will officially inaugurate it with the man who is as good as my own son and the saviour of the wizarding world, Harry Potter," said Kingsley. Teddy was jumping. Harry tried to hold him to stand still.

The mist started to cover Harry's name in the golden colour hung in the side and a name was written there once the mist receded.

'Avellino Svizzero'

All the ministers gasped. On his side, Draco, Blaise, Hermione, Bill, Arthur Molly, Ron, practically everyone gasped except for maybe Teddy who was trying to read his brother in law's name.

"Really Potter, only you!" mumbled Draco looking worried. Draco looked worried means, it is not a good thing. Because Malfoy's never look worried, never. Kingsley looked really worried. The rest of the parchments were on the way and many were still in shock of who Harry Potter was going to marry.

Well, Harry thought the name was a mouthful. He was not going to call the man Avellino all the time. The Italian minister came forward finally and took Harry's hand in his.

"You really are the saviour of the wizarding world. Maybe you will be the saviour of the Svizzero house and clan too," said the minister Dempse Tennesee Obrianni.

"Oh, is he a big deal over there?" asked Harry not sure if he wanted his future husband to be in the limelight.

"Harry, baby, he is the richest wizard in the world and is the prince of Italian magical famiglia. He is the only heir and is part of the Italian mafia. He is notorious for his cold heart and devil's soul," said Astoria slowly, her grip tightening on Harry's arms. He was her brother and she was not going to stand there and cover him with rosy stories.

"So, a wizard is a mafia don?" asked Harry, trying to not think of the fact that said man is his fiance and soon to be husband.

"Well, he is known to lead a complete muggle life. To be honest, he would not know of anything that happened in the past 13 years in the magical world. He left behind his throne and left me in charge," said Dempse.

"So you are saying, basically it should have been him here today representing the 2 crore magical people on Italy?" asked Harry.

"Yes," said Dempse.

"He is a mafia don?" muttered Ron.

"I am trying to forget that part!" muttered Harry.

"Denial is not good," said Hermione.

Harry just groaned. He loved his friends, he really did. But sometimes he wished they would just shut up.

Harry got out to get some air. At Least 10 minutes later, Dempse found him.

"He is my great-grandson. My daughter and her husband were killed by Grindelwald. My grandson grew up with a lot of resentment. Somewhere I did go wrong. I married him off thinking he would change. He was abusive and then Avellino was born and he was seven when after constant abuse, his dad killed his mom with his mistress watching and then shot her too. he shot himself in the head and died.

He was 13 when his little sister was killed by a set of mob men controlled by some wizards too. He was looking for revenge. He killed the mobsters and well, he became what he despised and never came back," said Dempse.

"I don't even know if he will accept this," said Dempse sighing.

Harry looked at the ancient man who just smiled at him.

"Wondering why I never said anything about you accepting this? Harry Potter, I have seen you from the sidelines, my boy, I know how much sacrifices you have made and also I think your legilimency is still as shit as when Professor Snape tried to teach you," said Dempse.

Harry flushed. He was reminded of Dumbledore and he smiled at the man softly.

"My life has never been easy. I am not going to complain. I can't- I don't know if he is evil, I am not sure I can be the Dumbledore of my Grindelwald," said Harry, feeling his heart ache for the two.

"He is not evil. He is just cold and closed up. More than the ice prince in there. He kills, yes, he kills the wrong people. But, yes he is a mobster. But I think of all people, you know that there is a thin line, that nothing is black and white," said Dempse.

Harry smiled, sighing. Whatever comes, he will deal with it as he goes.

"So, do you think he will reply to the letter?" asked Harry.

"I am taking the letter to him," said Dempse.

Harry nodded and turned.

"Can I - Do you have a picture of his?" asked Harry.

Dempse smiled and closed his eyes.

"I think meeting him on your own would let you know him better," said Dempse and then hugged him.

"Welcome to he Svizzero famiglia son," smiled Dempse before he went in.

Harry had asked his friends and family to let him be. He was now deep in research mode. He was an Auror for five years before he quit a few months back and that was not for nothing. A man does not kill a dark wizard or two without knowing his way around. Harry might have infiltrated the Italian law enforcement himself and found the documents on Svizzero.

Harry opened the file with trepidation. He was sitting in the hall of Grimmauld place, with a coffee and his future in his hand. He opened the file.

Swiss descent.

Monarchs for the past 2000 years.

Known for their loyalty to the people and loyalty to their famiglia.

Avellino Svizzero

Killed 358 people so far. 100 of them were wizards, the rest muggle.

No innocents.

48 of the wizards killed are dark ones who were planning on aiding the pureblood supremacy takeover by Obregon, a dark lord in the Italian lands. Obregon himself was killed by Svizzero.

None of the wizard/ witch killings is a crime. As the monarch and the commander in chief of the law enforcement, he is doing nothing illegal.

The muggles killed, Mafia men, beginning with the one who killed his sister Darcy Svizzero.

Harry groaned. He was not sure how he felt about a man who kills Mafia men, himself is a Mafia don and yet what he does is bloody legal. Sounds like a bloody entitled man. Harry traced the background of each person who was killed and couldn't find it in himself to feel bad. He did that to every single one of them. Needless to say, he had completely forgotten to worry about meeting the man himself sometime in the seven days. It was on the fifth day evening when he got a letter from Dempse saying 'He is back in Italy. Going to meet him now', did he start to worry again.
