At Hogwarts, where danger grows and trust is fragile, Charms professor Margaret Hawthorne finds herself drawn to the one man everyone fears-Severus Snape. Cold and distant, he unsettles her in ways she can't ignore.
As their paths intertwine, Margaret begins to notice strange things-the way he vanishes without explanation, the secrets lurking behind his guarded gaze. When whispers of He Who Must Not Be Named's return begin to spread, she pieces together a horrifying truth.
Snape is a Death Eater.
Shaken, she distances herself, unwilling to be entangled with darkness. But the war is closer than she thinks, and Snape's role in it is far more complex than she ever imagined.

"You don't know what you're talking about," he said, but it felt off-unconvincing.
Margaret stared up at him, her wrists still captured in his grasp. "Then why do you look at me like that?"
He tilted his head, letting go of his grip on her wrists. "Like what?"
"Like you want me," she said simply.

The Half-Blood Princess // Draco Malfoy x Reader (YEAR THREE)

She was still living by herself at a small tree house at a forest, along with her pets and her house elf to keep her in company.

Will everything go as she plans or will fate play games with her? ----------------------------------------------- !!!I have to warn you that it is a very slowburn story and the smut will come way later. The story will explain in detail the life of y/n y/l so it will contain all seven years in hogwarts but also life after war . I am Greek so English is not my first language so if I make any mistake please spare me. Severus is 31 in the first year of hogwarts and y/n y/l is 17/18 but the attraction between them will begin way later when y/n is in their 20s.But there is still an age gap so you have been warned!!! The story is inspired by Harry Potter , I don't own any of the characters except some of the o/c that will appear.
You Will Forever Be My Always ~ Severus X y/n
Severus Snape had long buried the memories of his first and only best friend, Y/n. As teenagers, they had shared a bond that made life's darkness seem brighter, but their story was cut short when Y/n abruptly moved away, vanishing from his life without so much as a goodbye. The pain of her sudden absence shaped the man Severus would become: guarded, bitter, and solitary. Years later, Severus has settled into his role as the stern Potions Master at Hogwarts, convinced that love and second chances are luxuries he cannot afford. But when he encounters a familiar face roaming the castle halls, his carefully constructed world is turned upside down. Y/n is back-seeking the position of Potions Assistant-and with her return comes a flood of unanswered questions and emotions Severus thought he had buried forever. As they navigate their shared past and the complexities of their present, old wounds resurface, and a spark that once burned bright threatens to reignite. I want to say that this story is not a chronic order, the timeline is mixed up but characters are by J.K. Rowling ⚠️there is mention of abuse⚠️Complete

Venom And Thorn
Severus Snape x Female Character | First-person POV Ellie never expected Hogwarts to feel like a battlefield. Being hired as the new Alchemy professor was exciting-but arriving during the Triwizard Tournament was never part of the plan. Thrown into a castle already tense with secrets and danger, she's forced to work closely with the one person who seems determined to push her away at every turn: Severus Snape. Cold. Infuriating. Impossible to read. And to ignore. Yet the more time she spends beside the Potions Master, the more she senses something beneath the hostility. Sharp words and colder silences slowly give way to something far more complicated-a fragile trust, an unwanted closeness, and something neither of them is ready to name. As danger unfolds and shadows begin to gather, Ellie finds herself pulled into a story far larger than her classroom, her past... and far more dangerous than her growing connection to Snape. Because Hogwarts is not the only thing hiding secrets this year. And some of them involve her. - Slow burn. Canon-aligned events. - Enemies-to-allies-to-something-more. - For readers who love tension, restraint, and dangerous loyalty.

[] It Started With Coffee [] Severus Snape x Reader []
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!

Lost & Found| S Snape X Reader
Cover by @Khloeshades ⚠️ Mature Content | Heavy Themes | Reader Discretion Advised ⚠️ Seventh year at Hogwarts was supposed to be about N.E.W.T.s, house rivalries, and preparing for life beyond the castle walls. But for Y/N, it was survival. Always the quiet one, she slipped through the cracks-haunted by depression, consumed by loss, and left feeling helpless in a world that never truly saw her. That is until Professor Severus Snape did. Stoic. Feared. Unapproachable. He was the last person Y/N expected to understand her pain-let alone care. But sometimes, the most broken souls recognize each other in silence. This story explores Y/N's journey through darkness, and the unexpected connection that changed everything. It's fast-paced, emotionally intense, and doesn't always play by the Wizarding World's rules. ⚠️ Content Warning: This fanfiction contains mature and explicit content, including graphic sexual themes (BDSM, choking, etc.), self-harm, drug abuse, suicidal ideation, sexual assault, and death. Reader discretion is strongly advised. Y/N is 18+ in this story. Voldemort does not exist in this timeline, and there are no Death Eaters. The story is faster-paced And it is not completely stuck to the wizarding world. ⚠️Y/N is 18 in this story⚠️ Y/N: Your Name N/N: Nickname Y/L/N: Your Last Name H/C: Hair Color E/C: Eye Color Y/H/N: Your House Name Y/H/C: Your House Color Y/F/C: Your Favorite color # 1 - daddysnape # 2 - teacherxreader # 10 - teacherComplete
The Stars on the Staircase
The note read simply "My Office. Immediately after dinner." On Monday Professor Snape saved me from falling off a moving staircase. Sparks shot out of our hands where our skin made contact as he pulled me to safety. Over the course of the week I have become obsessed, and uncontrollably aroused thinking of him constantly. I feel his eyes on me. I catch him looking at me. Nothing brings relief from the arousing day dreams churning through my mind since Monday. I fear I've gone completely mad. It's Friday and now I have this note. I know who it's from. This is a reader/Severus Snape story but it's formatted differently. It's written in first person, and I don't use name inserts to keep the reader more immersed. This is romantic mystery that begins before Harry comes to Hogwarts then eventually a time skip to the war and Headmaster Snape. All the characters and locations belong to J.K. Rowling. (I do not support or condone her. ) obviously a student teacher relationship is never okay this is a piece of fiction not intended for minors.Complete
