10 parts Ongoing MatureIn a world where pure-blooded families are bound by alliances and expectations, seventeen-year-old Willow Blackthorne has always felt trapped, her life a carefully constructed game with her as a pawn. But when Voldemort's court forces her to choose a suitor, she finds herself drawn to the enigmatic Professor Severus Snape, a man who offers her protection and a purpose-but at a steep price. Their connection is neither romantic nor gentle; it's one of fierce loyalty, calculated submission, and unwavering discipline. Snape's proposal demands nothing short of her full obedience, a life controlled and guided by his unrelenting hand, but for the first time, Willow feels she has a choice in her own fate.
Bound by a pact that defies the typical expectations of their society, Willow and Snape enter into an arrangement that is as dangerous as it is binding. Willow is thrust into a life where her autonomy is surrendered, but in exchange, she finds herself empowered in ways she could never have imagined. With her father's reluctant approval, she accepts Snape's brutal honesty and the hard boundaries he sets, learning to navigate a world of dark magic, survival, and loyalty, with Snape's shadow forever at her side. In this twisted, unforgiving world, Willow begins to understand that while she may never be free, she can wield power of her own-so long as she learns to submit to it.
