Chapter 2: Backstory

"James, are you sure about it? I mean is it fair to our children that we take away their right to choose their partners, to take away their chance to love? What if they do not like each other?" asked the brown haired man with blue eyes.

"Edgar, I know it is not fair but we are in the middle of a war. We do not know if we will survive. I have no family left and I will not let Harry be raised by Petunia or her husband. As far as muggles go, they are the worst. If we die, Harry will have a family who would love him", replied an exasperated James Potter who had recently wrote a marriage contract for his son and the other man's daughter.

"Lets hope we all survive this war so we can watch our children grow up.", said Lily.
