Severus Snape has spent over the last decade keeping his heart blocked off from the world. He's given up on finding his happiness and given up on love. When a new professor shows up and begins to melt away the ice of his heart, he finds new life within himself. But the ghosts of her past stand in the way, particularly an ex-lover of hers and a former enemy of Severus Snape. Can the two of them work through their own tribulations, or will his beliefs and values be cemented forever?

Severus Snape has an esteemed reputation to maintain, so he often spreads himself too thin. He becomes so overworked that he is assigned an assistant. You're kind and polite, but will not tolerate disrespect...definitely his kind of helper. Soon enough, potions aren't the only thing brewing between the two.

"Would it be better if I didn't exist?" "Yes." Your soul was intertwined with his, but his heart belongs to another. [severus snape x reader] #1 harrypotterimagines #1 hpimagines #1 severussnapexreader #1 souls #8 snape
