Harry wasn't expecting to have a panic attack from DADA class. He also wasn't expecting to be shown the effect of the Killing Curse up close and personal, not when his own mother's green-tinged scream still rings in his ears every single night.

In a burst of panic, The-Boy-Who-Lived runs to the only place - the only person - he feels safe with. His adopted father, his Da, Severus Snape.

Who is also the only person he's not allowed to love, not if he wants to keep them both safe in the prologue of this inevitable Second Wizarding War.

[PLEASE DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18] "You're kind of like a Safe Haven, you know?" "How long have you been waiting to make that pun?" "You have no idea" Haven Goldspear, an orphan of the War like so many others, was left alone. Both parents killed in the two Wizarding Wars, no direct family she still had contact with, and the fellow Hufflepuffs who could barely be called 'friends'; she was utterly alone in the world. Her coping techniques would probably be discouraged if she went to a therapist but those small acts of her exploding anger were the only things that could keep her going. That, and the newfound friendship she made at Hogwarts when she returned, along with most of the others from her year, as eighth-year students. Harry was grateful for the support the Weasleys had given him over the months but they didn't understand. Their situations were completely different even though they went through the same trauma. Everything angered Harry, he felt alone - weird considering how packed The Burrow was - and the fact that Ron and Hermione sneaked off to Ron's room at least once a day did not help. Maybe Haven's coping techniques weren't therapist-recommended and rarely safe, but it helped them to release all their anger and frustrations. Not only on glassware and walls, but on each other. WARNING: THIS BOOK DEALS WITH PTSD AND MENTAL PROBLEMS CONCERNING GRIEF AMONG WHICH (POTENTIONALLY) ADRENALINE CHASING. IF THIS IS TRIGGERING TO YOU, I SUGGEST TO NOT READ THIS BOOK {H.J.POTTER LOVE INTEREST} {POST-WAR} {BASED OFF THE BOOKS} {SPICY} {if you get offended by pronouns don't read this book because the characters sometimes say "i"}

He, a double spy, a man as complex as the magic that surrounds him. A Master of Potions and of Dark Arts, and a prisoner of his own past. In the dimly-lit dungeons of Hogwarts, where shadows dance & secrets whisper, stands a man charged with taming the beast hiding within her. His orders, clear. His path, one of no return. And she's the final key to it all. In a world where betrayal & sacrifice twist and turn, a dark tale of deception and desire unfolds under the looming clouds of the wizarding war. The line between friend and foe blurs as a choice must be made. One that will mean the difference between life and death, as the simmering cauldron of forbidden love with its shimmering fumes bewitches the minds, ensnares the senses, teaching them how to bottle pain, brew longing, and even how to put a stopper in death. But in the darkest of times, if anything is possible, then everything is at stake. ✨Word count: 226,854✨ ❗Tags/TWs:❗ Slow Burn, Angst, Age Difference, Hurt/Comfort, Violence, Blood, Death, Past Abuse, Dark, Dark Past, Past Violence, Gentle for SO, Sexual Content, Explicit Sexual Content, Possessive/Protective SO

"Before your birth, the Dark Lord developed a plan to improve the magical lineage. To do this, he selected the wizards and witches he considered most suitable, so that they would generate a new generation to serve the new order. This took place in a ceremony in which dark magic was used. I can confirm that there was a baby born from this ceremony. If you are reading carefully, you'll have guessed that that baby was you..." This is the story of an unwanted daughter and an unwilling father. Both forced to live together at the dawn of a magical war.
Nothing In This World by TheLostWandererr

Snarry. Explicit. He hadn't meant to. He really hadn't meant to. It sort of just came out. He didn't even know what he was doing in the teacher's lounge but before he could tell his body not to do anything stupid, his feet had taken him to where he knew Professor Snape was, but he stood there looking at the older man, those black soulful eyes staring at him like they always did when he was angry. "I'm in love with you, Professor." Harry let out a breath he didn't know he was holding. His words were out in the open, and there was nothing he could do about it. All the professors at Hogwarts knew how he felt, and he couldn't go back now. The man he'd grown to love stood there, speechless, his eyes narrow and skin pale. "Get out." He spat. His words made Harry physically recoil into himself as his venomous voice pierced through his ears. "But sir." If it was even possible, Snape's eyes narrowed into even smaller slits until his eyes were almost closed. "Get. Out." He spat again this time a bit more angry than before, "before I throw you out!" Harry quickly walked out of the room, tears falling down his face. The cover photo/ artwork for this story belongs to the original artist

"Well, I did think of Voldemort, but then... I thought of the Dementors.." Remus sighed gently, a small smile plastered on his face. "Well, Harry, that's a good choice. What you fear, is fear itself." Harry gulped nervously. "W-Well.. I thought of something else..." ____________________ TRIGGER WARNING This story contains sensitive material that some readers may find makes them uncomfortable! Read at your own risk! ____________________ This is the story of the Boy Who Lived. He trusted, fell in love, fought, and won. How dramatic can I make this story? Let's find out. ;) ____________________ Depressed!Harry I will NOT make him suicidal. It makes me uncomfortable, and I'm sure it makes others uncomfortable as well. Abused!Harry In this story, Harry will be abused! In a lot of fanfics, the abuse scenes always play out weird, but I'll try my best to make them, well, not weird... OOC!Draco Draco will be in character in the beginning of the story, but the more he learns about Harry, he will start to get a little out of character compared to the actual story! SHIPS/LABELS: Drarry! Harry and Draco WILL end up in a relationship! If this is not your cup of tea, please leave! (There's a nice little back button in the top left corner reserved just for you ;) ) Severitus! Snape will be fatherly and protective of Harry later on! This is NOT Snarry! Severus and Harry are NOT in a romantic relationship! Childish!Harry! I feel that, since Harry hasn't had a proper childhood where he could run around and have fun, he'd be pretty childish. This means curling up with Severus (Hinting Severitus here) in front of the fireplace, making rash and stupid decisions without thinking, etc. Basically acting like a child would. WARNINGS: HOMOSEXUALITY! There will be two boys in a relationship here! If this is not your cup of tea, please leave now! ABUSE!!! Please please please, if you are easily triggered by physical abuse, do NOT read this story! Otherwise... Enjoy!!

Harry James Potter. The saviour of the wizarding wold? Severus Tobius Snape. The unemotional & cold Potions Professor? Draco Lucious Malfoy. The sworn enemy? Ronald Weasley. The best friend? Hermione Granger. The smartest witch? Voldemort aka Tom Marvolo Riddle. The Dark Lord? What if these titles were all wrong? What if Harry wasn't supposed to save the whole wizarding world? Could it be that he only needed to save his adoptive father to change everything? ~This is my first fanfic.~ Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Characters. They belong to JK Rowling. Only the storyline belongs to me. Please note they Start at Hogwarts at 14 rather than 11. I thought it was more reasonable for this fanfic. Mentions of abuse and self harm (even suicide).

Love is difficult to explain as one likes to say. But (Y/n)(L/n) falling for her professor, Severus Snape? That was hard to believe. The girl always despised Potions and her professor as well. He was cranky, annoying, and never really liked any house besides Slytherin. However, with her N.E.W.T.s coming up, she had to ask someone to tutor her for help. Her friends were all busy focusing on themselves and couldn't help at all. So, finally, though she didn't want to, she asked Snape. Through countless tutor sessions and a few cups of coffee, the two became closer and closer.. Who would've imagined.. that the professor had more to him? Who would've imagined.. that the Potions Master could one day fall in love, and that being with his student, (Y/n)? A tale of two, in which their endings all started with coffee. ----- A/N : No smut, but does include dirty jokes and cussing, if uncomfortable please leave!
