    Summary

    What if Peter Pettigrew had been caught?
    What if Sirius Black never went to Azkaban?

    In a single split-second decision, the course of the wizarding world changes. Instead of prison, Sirius Black finds himself raising Harry James Potter—alongside Remus Lupin and, through reluctant necessity (and fate), Severus Snape.

    Three men. One child. And a life shaped not by prophecy, but by choice.

    Raised with as many last names as parents, Harry grows up loved—fiercely, if not always gently. Trained in magic, politics, memory, and legacy, he learns that to love is not to shield, but to prepare. He isn’t hidden from the dark—he’s taught how to walk through it.

    Part I: A childhood of broken men, healing bonds, and quiet resilience. (Chapters 1–28 | 221k words)
    Part II: Slytherin Harry at Hogwarts. Ambitious, kind, loyal to a fault, and destined to surprise them all. (Ongoing)

    Not the Boy Who Lived they expected. And perhaps something more powerful: a boy who was loved.
