At the age of sixteen, Cassiopeia came into her Inheritance. She was a Fae and she knew instantly who one of her Bonded was meant to be, however another tried to claim her.

Cassiopiea Black, initially known as Cassie Johnson, is the main protagonist for The Bonded Series. She must traverse her tumultuous teenage years as she growns into her destiny set by Lady Magic and tries to accept her bondmates, one of which is easier than the other.

### Background

Cassiopeia was born to Aquila Black and Rabastan Lestrange, on September 21, in 1978. She was their only child, but her father was unaware of her birth. Her mother left her in the care of her uncle, Regulus Black, who had no choice but to leave her at Wools Orphanage as the Wizarding War picked up. Cassiopeia grew up believing her name was Cassie Johnson, the name under which she was enrolled at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She struggled as a Slytherin who essentially had no-name but eventually became friends with Draco Malfoy, who's name unwittingly gave her *some* protection from the more zealous Purebloods. Cassiopeia eventually discovers her lineage, as it becomes apparent that all is not as it seems. She is drawn strongly towards her best friends father, Lucius Malfoy, and as time progresses she begins to believe Draco that she is bonded to the Malfoy Lord.

## Anima Vinculum

Cassiopeia Malfoy nee Black is the Lady Malfoy, stepmother to Draco Malfoy and wife to her childhood sweetheart, Lucius Malfoy. She is not the typical Pureblood Wife, she is a renowned Wardsmith and has worked hard for the recognition.

### Background

Cassiopiea was born to Walburga Black and Orion Black, on November 3, in 1959. She is hours older than her twin brother Sirius Black. Her parents were absent at best, horrifically abusive at worst during her childhood, something that become much more poignant when she had to watch her youngest brother, Regulus Black, bear the brunt of their mothers, in particular, wrath. Before receiving her Hogwarts letter, Cassiopeia made friends with Severus Snape, a friendship her twin tolerated at best. She fell in love with the older Lucius Malfoy, a fact that she did not recognise for what it was until she was in her late teens, and it was an affair that was reciprocated, making it even worse when it became common knowledge that Lord Malfoy and Lord Orion Black had entered marriage negotiations. Her heart was broken when she had to end the affair, retreating into her friendship shared with Severus and his life with lover Tom Riddle. She threw herself into her apprenticeship as a Runic Ward Master, powering through it in record time so that by the time she was twenty-one, she had gained her Mastery. Around her twenty-second birthday, tragedy struck once more, as her twin was remanded to Azkaban without a trial and her cousin succumed to an atrophying disease after the birth of her son, and Cassiopeia's second cousin, Draco Malfoy. After an extended period of mourning, Cassiopiea conceeded that she would never move out of Malfoy Manor, where she had lived to help both with her cousin's illness and the raising of young Draco, Cassiopeia eventually welcomed the tentative courtship of Lucius Malfoy, the flame they had once held for one another having never extinguished. It took several more years until Cassiopeia Black became Cassiopeia Malfoy.
