Chapter One- A Secret

*The Burrow*

Sirius Black returned from the veil along with Harry's parents right after Voldemort was now defeated by Harry. Even though Harry's parents died by the hand of Voldemort instead of falling through as he did. The fates were sending James and Lily back with him as a gift for Harry, as he saves both of the worlds.

When James and Lily came back with him, Sirius saw how happy Harry now is. He wanted something like that. He wanted to feel that type of unconditional love. More important he wanted to feel that familiar joy of being a parent. Although, for eighteen and a half years he has kept a secret to himself. He didn't even tell any of his best friends that he has a daughter about the same age.

The main reason was never in her life was in jail for a crime he didn't commit, and the war was going on. On the other hand, he had the secret a year before his godson was born. It was also a good thing that he didn't spill his guts. She surely would have become a powerful weapon to use against him if his secret was out in the open.

Nineteen years ago, Sirius Black was at a bar in Scotland, to get away from all the fighting in England. A woman walks in with red hair and a beautiful personality that he would have never gotten tired of. That night he slept with her, and every night after for then next couple of months. He never used any protection, until it was too late. She ended up pregnant with his child. She was a just a human. Someone who didn't know about the wizarding world, which he was glad about.

The woman found out about him sleeping with other women, so she left and never returned to the same bar. He was heartbroken and devastated at the same time. He never slept with another woman while he was sleeping with her. He thought that she might be the one for him. A thought that never crossed his mind before that night. But he couldn't show that type of weakness with the war of Voldemort so he pushed back his feelings, something he was good at with living with his type of parents. Even though his father wasn't as bad as his mother.

Some months past as he received a letter from that woman he impregnated. He was very surprised since he didn't receive any word before from the female. She gave him a daughter. A daughter he might never ever see. For years he kept it to himself.

*St. Vladimir's Academy*

Rose Hathaway was not very happy at this moment. She just found her boyfriend cheating on her with her enemy. A lot of emotions were rushing through her. She was angry, pissed off, and she felt betrayed. She was a complete mess. If anyone found her now, they would want to know why she was crying. She barely ever cried She was a tough nut to crack. She went back to her dorm room and closed the door behind her.

She got down on her knees, while she sat there and let the tears pour freely down her face. She didn't know how long she just sat there. Time didn't mean anything to her now.

Her mascara ran down her face. Her brown eyes were now bloodshot, which she hated. She couldn't believe what she saw in Gym. In the middle of the room was her boyfriend and mentor, Dimitri Belikov, who she loves with her whole heart. He was there with, Tasha Ozera, whose is her best friend's boyfriend's aunt. She didn't even want to think about Lissa or Christian at this time.

Not many people knew they were going out, except for Adrian. Not even her best and bond mate, Lissa, knew she was seeing someone. Everyone thought she was still hung up on Mason's death. She was still upset about her friend's death, she just knew that her and Dimitri would cause more problems since she was still in school and they both were going to become Lissa guardians when she graduates.

Rose knew she couldn't stay there anymore. She needed to leave. She needed to go somewhere that she could heal herself from her heart-break and just be herself for once. Her best friend knew about Tasha's and Dimitri's relationship and never said anything to her. Even though Lissa didn't know about her relationship to Dimitri, Lissa would have still brag it to Rose. No one bothered to tell her, it was like she was invisible.

She had the perfect plan. She had to leave. She decided that she was going to go to England. She grabbed her bright pink suitcase, grabbed all of her nicer clothes' as she was able to, and threw them into the suitcase. She was leaving St. Vladimir's academy for good. She didn't plan on coming back here ever again.

Rose grabbed her purse with some of her most treasured items. She took most of her pictures except for one. It was the recent one where her and Dimitri were training. She remembered that day. That was one of the days she saw his rare smile. Her thoughts turned darker. He probably smiles all the time like that for the slut. Why would he need to smile for me, Rose's thought darkly.

The best time for her to leave the academy was now while everyone was walking to classes. She made it to the end of the woods, a spot where she knew she wouldn't have any trouble getting past.

Roses only problem now was getting out of the woods and to the airport, where she would finally would be free of everyone telling her how to live her life.

Few hours later…

Rose was happily in England, but she didn't know where to go next. Although she knew that her biological father was living somewhere in the area. Growing up as a child, she never knew who the father was until she was a teenager. She always would ask, and her mother would always intervene or say that he wasn't important, or didn't belong in their world.

Sirius Black, was her birth father. Unlike her mother who was a Moroi, he was a human. None of her friends knew that information about her. Rose would always tell them that her father was a dhampir, and all his living family was slaughtered by a group of Strigoi. They believed her since it was a possible outcome for most dhampirs. Although her mother always told her she has her father's hair.

She was walking down the streets of London, and she had no idea where she was. She was just roaming the streets, looking for a hotel or motel to stop for the night.

It was dark out, and the wind was blowing her hair all over the place. The rain clouds were rolling in, so she grabbed her purple jacket from her book bag. She wondered if her friends knew she was gone. She was still only 17 and not a grown adult, so they might have sent someone to look for her.

Rose just walked past an alleyway, just as it starting pouring rain. She looked behind her and saw someone following her, so she quickened her walking to a light jog. She had a funny feeling that she knew with type personal was following her.

The Strigoi grabbed her shoulder and pulling her violently behind a trashcan. Rose did pack a stake with her, but it was underneath all her clothes in her suitcase. The man was looking down at her, there was a red circle in his eyes. This is the first time she had ever seen one up front. The man lowered his head to her neck and smelled her skin. His fangs were so close to her skin she could feel them.

His fangs bit deep into her skin drawling blood. She started tingling and saw stars in her eyes. She knew it was the end for her as she blacked out.

Two days later...

Rose woke up in an uncomfortable bed, and her arms and legs were very sore to move. She felt like she was ran over by a bike or several trained novices' on a sugar rush. She looked around the room and saw that the place was very neat and organized. Only thing that bothered her, was that everything was white, from the walls to the very same bed that she was laying on.

The second problem for her, was she had no idea where she was and how she got here. The last thing she remembers is the plane ride over. She moved off the bed, and went towards the door hoping to find that it is unlocked. Except it was very tightly locked and she had no way of opening it.

She felt to room go colder. With the clothing she had on before she should have frozen. She looked down to see what she was wearing and found out that she had on different clothing than before.

She was wearing small spaghetti strapped tight black shirt that showed most of her stomach and her belly button ring, which she got done last year while on the run. She had only very small red and black plaid mini skirt that barely covered her ass. The only thing that was the same about her clothing that she was black leather boots that she was wearing.

She looked around the room and found her backpack was sitting on the chair with her purse. She went over to them, and move her stuff around to find two similar color rubber bands. She used the rubber bands to braid her hair on the sides. The next thing she did was looking for her stake, which was hiding in one of her sneakers.

She didn't know how long she has been in the room, and her stomach suggests that she has been there awhile. That would mean she didn't have enough time to escape. The Strigoi would probably be checking up on her anytime soon. Or there might be more than one of them. She did know one thing, to get away from wherever she is quickly.

Door clicked open, and the same man walked into the room. She would be lucky to get out of the room alive. She had her stuff in her arms backing up to the window, as he came closer to her. He moves towards her very quickly. Within seconds he was standing face to face with her that she was able to feel around on her face.

His right hand came out towards her, as if he was going to slap her, except she ducked at the last-minute, making him hit the window instead of her. She ran underneath his left arm towards the opened door. He was faster than her as he grabbed her hair, pulling her on the floor towards the middle of the room. Her back was all scratched up, and some spots for bleeding heavily. So she rolled to her side grab the nearest object towards her.

He yanked her up, so she was spending on her feet. He was still gripping to her hair tightly. He pulled back his right hand into a ball, as he was going to turn. He swung at her, hitting her in the eye. She was able to tell that there was going to become a black and blue on her eye. His fingernails went into her skin on her arms.

She was wishing that she was anywhere, but there. She never felt this type of pain ever in her life. Not even when she was sparing with her classmates. She wondered if she could have a normal life, with normal friends, and do everything a normal female her age would do. That made her start thinking, of her father. She wished she was there instead of here, so she closed her eyes.

The strangest thing happened to her that second. When she opened her eyes and that man who had her were no longer there, she wasn't even in the same room. She was not even in that room anymore. She was outside. There was a field in front of her brown eyes. To her left, she saw a weird-looking house. She heard several voices talking at once, although she didn't see anyone.

Breathing heavily, she tilted her head to the sky, and finally found where the voices were coming from. Rose saw several men in the sky, that looked like they were flying on ordinary looking house brooms. She gasped. Her eyes went wide. She fainted, and fell to the ground, whether it was from the lack of food or from the shock of seeing several men flying brooms.

*The Burrow*

Sirius Black was having a good day. Most of his friends and their children were at the Burrow. He still didn't tell any of them that he has a daughter, around the same age as his godson. He just didn't know how to tell them the truth. He kept it hidden so long that he didn't know if they would ever forgiven him for lying to them.

"Help," someone said.

He thought it was one of the Weasley's. He was correct to, as seen it was George. He knew that George, was still grieving for his dead twin brother. He was not expecting to see George running into the room with a young woman, torn and bruised. The young woman had tan skin and dark brownish blackish hair. She did also look familiar to him.

"Where did you find her? Who is she?" asked Molly Weasley. She ran into the room with Lily Potter on her heels.

George laid the unconscious woman on to the couch. He went to move out-of-the-way so the woman could take care of her bruises, but she grabbed on his shirt and held the fabric tightly. So he moved to the end of the couch so the women had enough space to work on her.

"Do you know who this is?" his mother demanded, while working on cleaning up the female's open bruises.

"No, I just found her outside," said George, as he moved some of the woman's brown hair away from her eyes.

Bill, who is the oldest Weasley, came into the room with a large book bag and a big black purse in his arms. His pregnant wife was following behind him. They both stood off to the side of the room so that they weren't in the way of the others.

"Are those the girl things?" Asked James Potter as he entered the room along with Remus.

"Yes," said George. "She had those with her when I found her."

"Bill," said James Potter as he ran his fingers through his black hair. "Since you have her things, why don't you see if you can find an identification card in there somewhere."

Bill nodded his head as he looked through the young woman's purse. He found the normal woman's objects, and lastly was her wallet. He opened her wallet, and said, " Rosemarie Hathaway, age 17. She also has her birth certificate. Her mother's name is Janine Hathaway, and her father is Sirius Black."

Sirius knew his secrets were out of the bag. His living, breathing, 17-year-old daughter was in the same room as him. The other people who were in the room, looked at him with shocking expressions.

"Do you really have a daughter?" Asked the frazzled James Potter.

"Yes," said Sirius. "I have known since her mother was pregnant with her. She thought it would be best if I lost contact when she decided to move to the United States."

Molly Weasley wanted to know if this girl was his. She did a spell on the girl to see, if she was the biological child of Sirius. It came back positive, just as the woman's brown eyes opened.
