Restricted Section || Severus Snape x Reader

When (y/n) Noctair returns to Hogwarts to repeat her sixth year following a suspension, she intends to keep her head down, endure the whispers, and continue the research she has kept hidden from everyone - forbidden magic that may be her only chance of restoring stolen memories.

Brilliant, sharp-tongued, and dangerously curious, she soon finds herself under the watchful eye of Professor Severus Snape, whose interest in her is as deliberate as it is impossible to decipher.

What begins as constant corrections, cutting remarks, and nightly detentions gradually becomes something far more difficult to define: an unsettling understanding between them, built on secrets, intellect, and the uncomfortable realisation that they may understand one another far too well.

But the deeper (y/n) delves into forbidden magic, the harder it becomes to remain invisible. The castle begins to take notice. The rules begin to close in. And, despite himself, so does he.
