SEVERUS SNAPE - The Shadow That Still Breathes

The wizarding world believes him dead and hails him as a hero. But Severus Snape is alive, hidden away and protected by a secret.
For the first time in many years, he no longer has a mission to follow or a role to hide behind. Now his life belongs entirely to him.
He has been given a second chance he never asked for.
This is not merely a story of survival. It is a story of mysteries, unknown presences, invisible wounds, trust, and friendship. And, above all, of a new and unexpected feeling that has no intention of rushing. On the contrary... it should be crushed before it has the chance to grow.
Because, to Severus, feeling something for another woman is an affront to Lily's memory.
Of one thing alone is he certain: this is no longer his life. And he feels like nothing more than a shadow that still breathes.
