Lustful Alchemy

As a former Hogwarts student, journalist and magician activist Cassandra Doyle was delighted and honored when she received a letter from the Deputy Headmistress Matilda Weasley, asking her to join the teaching staff as Alchemy professor. However, as she arrives at the school Cassandra discovers she won't be the only one teaching that fascinating yet challenging subject: Master Potion Aesop Sharp will flank her. Two personalities, and two ways of teaching, so different that they will inevitably end up clashing and provoking... but also getting to know each other deeply, forgetting and overcoming their respective past traumas. The two will learn alchemy is not only a subject to be taught, but also a sensation to be felt and lived.

DISCLAIMER: the story is set in 1898 (7 years after the end of Hogwarts Legacy), so the events that occur are fictional and may not correspond to what actually happened in reality. Furthermore, English is not my native language, so I apologize in advance if some sentences and names are not written correctly - feel free to correct me! Finally, I am aware that Sharp's background is similar to that chosen in other fan fictions. I'm sorry if it seems like I copied and pasted; it was never my intention. What I wrote is entirely the product of my imagination, and I never intended to steal the work or ideas of others. I believe that this man, his past, and his inner demons have evoked the same effect and impressions in all of us. 🫠
