12 parts Ongoing The Triwizard Tournament has come to Hogwarts, bringing magic, danger, and the kind of change that alters everything it touches.
Professor Alba Thorne is determined to keep her heart buried beneath her work, but Remus Lupin's unexpected return threatens to undo her fragile peace.
For a brief moment, love begins to bloom again. Tentative, fragile, and full of hope. But fate has other plans. Beyond the castle walls, Remus meets someone new, and Alba must learn what it means to love someone enough to let them go.
Severus Snape, ever watchful, finds himself caught between duty and desire, unwilling to admit the depth of what he feels for the one person who sees past his bitterness.
As the years unfold, alliances shift, hearts are tested, and the light between them all begins to fade.
Because love, like sunlight, can't last forever. And when it sets, what remains are the shadows it leaves behind.
