*MAJOR SMUT AND MATURE CONTENT!!!!! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!* Eight years after graduating from Hogwarts, Daphne Blackwood returns-not as a student, but as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. It's the height of the Deathly Hallows era, and the castle is no longer the safe haven she once knew. Under the iron rule of Headmaster Severus Snape, tension crackles in the air, and danger lurks around every corner. But Daphne's curiosity gets the better of her when she sneaks into Snape's private cupboard of forbidden potions-and gets caught. Her punishment? Serve the brooding, enigmatic headmaster himself. What starts as a begrudging arrangement quickly spirals into something far more dangerous. Heated glances turn into forbidden touches, and their undeniable chemistry becomes impossible to ignore. As war rages outside the castle walls, Daphne and Severus are drawn into a secret affair that could destroy them both. Warning: This is a tale of seduction, smoldering tension, and explicit encounters, set against the high-stakes backdrop of the Deathly Hallows era. For mature audiences only, this story blurs the lines between lust and love, power and vulnerability.

"Don't think." Nay said. "Come in. Let me make it better." Snape survived the war; Nayme Adams (OC) is a muggle woman teaching Muggle Studies at Hogwarts. She meets our favorite snarky Potions Master and, together, they must face a new threat to the entire humanity. Beware of blood and gore and a whole lot of sex - truth be told, the plot was written only to pull the naughty bits together... and naughty they will be indeed - after the mutual pining bit. Be warned! THIS FIC IS COMPLETE and it's also on AO3. * Loads of easter eggs for Rickman fans. Hope you catch them! ** ob.vi.ous.ly I do not own any of JK Rowling's characters. Nor do I partake in her views regarding the transgender community.
