Summary
She was always just a name: a Potter, James’s little sister, a Gryffindor by choice rather than calling.
He was always just a shadow: Snivellus, Lily’s bitter memory, a Slytherin with a heart too guarded to show.
When a twist of academic fate throws them together in fifth-year Potions, quiet observation turns to late-night meetings, and scholarly silence slowly ferments into something more dangerous. But as lines blur and loyalties shift, he begins to see her not for who she is but who she reminds him of. And that’s where the real danger begins.
A slow-burn story of self-identity, regret, and the alchemy of two people who were never supposed to find comfort in each other.
