Summary
Regulus Black never planned to be a father, but when Lucius Malfoy vanishes, leaving behind crushing debts and a five-year-old Draco, he has no choice. Struggling to survive, the last thing he needs is James Potter.
But when Draco befriends Harry, their lives collide. James sees through Regulus’s walls, offering help he refuses to accept. As debts turn to threats and Sirius resurfaces after years of silence, Regulus must decide: keep fighting alone or risk everything for the family he never thought he deserved—including James.

“What?” He asks, alarmed.
“As Sirius said, the curse has been modified to a shorter timeline.” Effie says, looking at him wearily ... "If Regulus is not married to a Pureblood within the next hour, he will die.”

The thought occurs to him, but he brushes it off. He’s had some stupid ideas, but this is completely ridiculous. It’s in no way an option.
He stares at Sirius then, eyes red rimmed and face resigned with the kind of grief James knows would follow him every single day. He looks at the boy he would sell his soul in a second to protect. Then he does.
“I’ll do it.” James says firmly.
