Severus Snape never believed in love. Not after Lily Potter died. Not after the war took everything from him, leaving behind a miserable husk of a man. But, the universe has a funny way of giving you the very things you thought you never wanted. Or ones you never thought you'd ever have... And for the grumpy Potions Master, that comes in the form a five foot two blonde spitfire who upends everything he thought he knew.

(Post-marauders, Pre-Harry) The year is 1985. After Voldemort's apparent demise at the end of a devastating war, Severus Snape is just trying to get by in a wizarding world he no longer feels he has a place in. Cold and critical, he knows the day will come when his demons will come back to haunt him, but today is not that day. Unknown to her classmates, Isabella Fellstone has a few secrets of her own. Reserved and analytical, she is a star chaser on the Slytherin quidditch team and excellent in potions and charms. Is it really surprising that the blood of Merlin, himself, runs through her veins? When Isabella's talents and recklessness lead to her spending an unusual amount of time with her head of house, will they be brought together by their surprising similarities or will Severus's walls and sour disposition become more than Isabella bargained for? Book 2 completed.

Book 2 of the Descendant of Merlin series. Summer before seventh year is well underway, and Isabella is learning there is much more to the potions master than she realized. When school resumes, how will she juggle her new responsibilities along with her true desires? With the ups and downs that come with loving Severus Snape and new revelations about her family and childhood, there is only one thing Isabella knows; she must be true to herself. Severus is beginning to see Isabella in a different light. There's something-darker about her that he had never noticed. For both of their future safety, he must make every effort to push her away, but has he finally met the one person patient and persistent enough to soften his will? After all these years of pain and solitude, there's only one thing the war veteran knows; he must stay true to his mission. Can their passion unite them, or will their ambitions tear them apart? Either way, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Book 3 of the Descendant of Merlin series. Together at last, Isabella and Severus have found a strange freedom in each other. But Darkness is stirring again in the wizarding world and they will have to use their unique talents and mentalities to navigate a new era of instability. When Harry Potter returns to the world of magic his presence seems to bring the worst out in Severus. Can Isabella handle feeling like she will always come second to Severus' lost love, or will the demons of her husband's past drive a wedge between them?

She looked at the empty seat Snape had been sitting in and repressed a sigh. Meg had heard a lot about Professor Snape. His reputation was well known; cold, calculating, aloof. They certainly fitted the man well. Meg was glad that he hadn't been there when she had. If he had any idea about what lay in her past, she knew he'd have the upper hand over her. At least this way, they started off evenly. Meg decided to keep well out of his way as much as possible; if that was possible at all.. _____________________________ This story is written by Starlight8 on Fanfiction.net, not by me.

"𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬?" He asked, the blade was digging into your skin, lightly drawing out blood from you which Severus happily sucked, his tongue drawing circles on the small cut near the valley of your breasts.
