They had dared. Sirius would never have believed his parents so deceitful. Of course they had not asked him to stay during the Christmas holidays of his seventh year at Hogwarts to enjoy his incredible presence while he was now living with the Pott.ers.

His parents had invited him to his own engagement without Sirius knowing.

He was now sitting on the long table loaded with luxurious and succulent dishes, which would have made him salivate if he did not have this bitter taste in his mouth. His whole family was gathered, from his two cousins ​​Bellatrix and Narissa with their husbands, to his aunt Lucretia whom he never saw. And of course there was his 'in-laws', pure blood supremacists friends with his parents.

You, his future fiancé whose name Sirius had just learned a few hours ago, stood next to him. In other circumstances, he would have found you pretty, even to his taste, maybe Sirius would have even tried something with you. But the simple fact of thinking that now, he will have to marry you, a stranger, for the rest of his life… it was too much for Sirius.
