Through Me
Severus Snape is the last person you should ever desire. For five years, you've clashed like flint and steel, two Slytherins locked in a battle of pride and sharp words. You, a pure-blood who guards secrets, clinging to ideals you've never truly embraced. Him, a half-blood outcast with edges too dark to ignore. Then, alone in a room, a boundary shatters. Everything ignites. Hatred warps into something darker, more intimate, more dangerous. In the hidden corners of Hogwarts, between whispered insults, stolen glances, and secret encounters, you begin to strip each other bare, body and soul, in a slow descent into a passion that threatens to destroy everything you've worked to protect. And maybe... into something you're not ready to face. ------- Juliett Avery x Severus Snape. Sixth year. AU timeline. Hogwarts admits students from age 13. Set during the Marauders era.
