Florence Aveline Byrd had suffered a great deal during her life. Growing up alone, kept away from the world as the child of a faithful servant to The Dark Lord, unknown by even his closest Death Eaters, had far more downfalls than perks. After Florence senses her life is in grave danger one night and makes a dangerous decision that turns her world upside down, she is given the opportunity to hide in plain sight under the protection of strangers; one, in particular, who will help her to be the strong witch she must become in order to help save the wizarding world. But once it becomes clear to her that the Dark Lord has truly set his eyes on her, she must decide if she will continue to run, or fight the battle that she has been raised to - and which side will she choose to aide?

Emma Moore, professor in Healing at Hogwarts, has to suppress her feelings for her old best friend and now colleague Severus Snape, who she hasn't seen in ten years, while figuring out who killed her aunt. --------------------------------------------- Emma Moore had a good life, objectively speaking. She worked her dream-job as a Healer at St Mungo's Hospital, and had a boyfriend, Jordan, who loved her and worked at the hospital with her. But somehow, she was still not happy. She still missed the people she left behind ten years earlier. One person, in particular. But when Jordan cheats on her with another colleague, someone she considered a friend, Emma finds herself gathering her things and leaving her whole life behind her. In a spur of the moment decision, she applies for a job at Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. To her great delight, she's hired as a professor in Healing. Arriving at the school, she finds out that her old best friend, Severus Snape, also works there; the boy she was hopelessly in love with during the seven years they went to school together, the man she could never really get over in the ten years since she'd last seen him. Now too late to terminate her new job, she has to make the best of it. And then her aunt gets killed while on one of her auror missions and all the evidence seems to point to Severus. How well does she still know the boy she used to know like the back of her hand? How much can she still trust him? This story is set during Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts.

TW: listen, I wrote this when I was 15 years old. I don't remember what's in half of it, nor do I really want to. 😅 It's not well written. It's crude, immature, and above all- a cry for help. The only reason I haven't archived it is because writing this story helped me disassociate for many years. It is what kept me going and while I don't really remember it's contents I do know I poured all of my personal trauma into it depending on my mood which was- well I'm on mood stabilizers now. 😅 Anyway it was the only thing I really had in life for a long time. I guess I'm still weirdly holding onto as a piece of me. Like my own little horcrux. That being said I do remember this can be just outright horrific. TW TW TW TW TW for literally everything. I don't know how else to put it. If you have a major trigger it's more than likely in this series and I didn't know what a trigger warning was so- enjoy. Or don't. Either way. 😅 I'm so sorry.

Severus Snape x fem Harry (Hally) Potter He burns for her for all the wrong reasons, she obsesses and aches for him for all the right ones. Will this be their love story or have the ghosts from their pasts doomed them from the start ? Hally Potter has spent her whole life alone. The pain and trauma the Dursley's have inflicted upon her make her feel like she'll never get out from underneath them. Until her eleventh birthday that is. She receives a letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and learns of her heritage along with what really happened to her parents. She meets a lot of interesting people along the way whom she grows to love, including a certain brooding potions professor. Severus Snape was not well liked amongst his fellow professors and the students he taught potions to. His only reprieve was the knowledge that one day Lily's daughter would return to his world and he would be able to keep a close eye on her because he intended to right his wrongs with his one true love. Or so he thought. He immediately hated the girl with a passion and decided quite quickly that he would keep his distance and only interfere if her life was in imminent danger. As the years go on that task tends to prove more difficult than he originally thought because of one thing he hadn't foreseen. She has her mothers eyes. *Slowburn dark romance- large age gap, underage, eventual smut * Years 1-7 but mostly The Goblet of Fire-Deathly Hallows pt 2 I do not own any of the characters. They all belong to J.K.Rowling *please do not copy and post my book elsewhere*
