This story depicts my interpretation of Severus' experience during the most significant events that occurred during the first four years of Harry's time at Hogwarts.

This idea stemmed from Chapter 8 of 'Leave Me' where I was meant to cover years 1 to 4 of Harry’s schooling from Severus’ point of view. My goal was to briefly explore the role Severus played in the significant events Harry experienced during the first four years of his time at Hogwarts. What was originally meant to be a normal-sized chapter has become a story almost in and of itself. It was not long before I realised just how much Severus would have contributed (behind the scenes) during those four years, and I wanted to do it justice. So, instead of posting Chapter 8 of 'Leave Me' as one large chapter under the cross-over story, I thought it may be something other readers would be interested in reading, so decided to create a new story: ‘The Struggles of a Spy’.

Please note that you do NOT need to read ‘Leave Me’ to understand this story as it is purely canon based. The only (slight) exception to this will be chapters 3 and 4, but I will explain this when I manage to post up these chapters.

Shortly after Theda Desmond replaces Professor Binns as Hogwarts' new History of Magic teacher, she learns that she possesses a rare talent known only to the legendary Altier family, former founders of the French Ministry of Magic who mysteriously went missing 200 years ago. As she works to uncover the secrets of her curious origins, she develops an unlikely bond with the brooding Potions master, Severus Snape. As their friendship grows, the two begin to recognize that they share a common pain that few have experienced. Will their unique ability to understand each other set them on a course toward healing and new beginnings, or will the ghosts of the past return to tear them apart? *** 🥇in #alanrickman *** While the nature of this story wanes between humorous and romantic, it is also, in many ways, a story about the non-linear nature of grief. I hope you enjoy it. This is my first ever fanfic! Please vote for each chapter if you're enjoying the story, as this will encourage me to continue updating it regularly! Thanks! *** TW: This story will occasionally make brief references to issues such as body image, death, abuse, etc. but I try to do so in a way that is approachable for everyone. *** *This is a slow-ish burn, but patience pays off! *Our story follows the timeline of Chamber of Secrets, but will continue into later years. I do my best to keep to the canon timeline. *Adult content will be featured in future, but will not be necessary to the plot & can be easily skipped. *All original characters from Harry Potter belong to JK Rowling. *All original characters are my intellectual property.
