Voldemort was going to kill Verita. He was going to murder her brutally, and Severus Snape was going to be the one to create the lie that both saved her life and brought himself into it. Mendacity - an act of lying.

The year is 1981. Infant Harry Potter has been recovered from his atrocious meet with the Dark Lord. But this story, unlike most you've heard, is not about the infamous boy who lived. This story is about the leering potions master, Professor Severus Tobias Snape, and his petrifying fear of love. *SMUT*
