Slow Burn Fanfiction | Rated 18+ Severus Snape x Reader (Professor) You're not just starting a job at Hogwarts - you're stepping into a place alive with secrets, shadows, and the kind of magic that lingers long after the spells have faded. The ancient castle holds mysteries you've always longed to unravel... but the greatest enigma isn't hidden in its halls. It's standing right in front of you: Professor Severus Snape. From the moment your eyes meet, the tension is undeniable. Snape is colder, sharper, more unreadable than ever. His gaze unsettles you, his words sting - and yet, something in you stirs. Something you don't want to name. What begins as barbed exchanges and veiled glances soon unravels into something far more dangerous. A slow-burning connection. Irresistible. Unspoken. And in a place where nothing is ever what it seems, you might just lose more than your heart.

Tom follows Charlie to her sleepy, bayfront hometown and their worlds collide. Charlie has to decide if Tom is worth the risk of stepping out of the darkness of the past, and opening herself up to the future.

An outsider who has graciously decided to stay put, Tom revels in the routine, the simple moments in life. When the two meet, it is like worlds colliding. But perhaps they have more in common than first meets the eye.
