Hogwarts had never been home for him, despite the many that he'd lived there. It had magic, yes and it held his belongings but it lacked something crucial. 

Comfort. Warmth. The longing for those walls when his heart felt their distance. 

He'd never had reason to yearn; in fact, he often felt dread. But something changed so quickly when he met her.

This book is now available through Amazon and kindle! It was definitely a process getting it published, but my parents wanted me to accomplish this before they passed away, so no regrets. I wish I could work on it again, maybe add layers. It starts off a little heavy on the "romance", and then I think it finds its own groove, but overall I'm happy with the final product. I always appreciate it when people purchase it, but you are more than welcome to read it here. If you do buy one, please leave me a rating/comment. It's under my pen name Robin Ray on Amazon. I reposted it here for everyone to read, but I think it's also nice to read in paper book form. I buy one for myself every Christmas and end up gifting it:)I really felt inspired to write it, and as strange as it sounds, I felt that Alan Rickman helped guide me along the way. When I read it, it makes me feel less lonely, and the characters feel like real friends to me. I hope you also find something meaningful in my book. I've started on the sequel...Refuge, but it's been difficult to get back to it. Please leave me a vote or a note, I really enjoy those:) The devastating loss of his dear Lily had calloused him to the point of having very few of the gentler emotions. He had lost Lily to their arrogant classmate, James Potter, which utterly devastated him, only to find what utter devastation really meant when he lost her again, and finally, to death. He put those memories aside for now...he had relived them a lifetime's worth in his mind over the years. He turned his thoughts back to the present, and the woman who was presently in the very next room. He relented slightly as he felt a familiarity pass over him, and he groaned lightly, feeling as if this wound had been touched at its deepest core, then had been set to healing, and he drifted off into an exhausted sleep before he could put a finger on the source of the warm familiarity he had felt, and the magic that would not show itself until the proper time.

"And what is wizarding royalty doing at Hogwarts?" -SS "Come now Severus... Princesses love castles" -AD Severus Snape was like an abandoned castle; cold and secluded. That was the way he liked it. He'd long since accepted the fact that he would be alone until his dying day. And then she came along, ancestor of Merlin with her extravagant robes and pearl necklaces. Brilliant beaming smiles that made his eyes hurt. And Merlin made Snape want to see the world. She turned the dark prince into a night in shining armour...
