Harry has just returned to Privet Drive after his sixth year. Shaken, scared, angry, and feeling utterly alone.

This one event now has changed the course of a plan that Lily had made nearly fifteen years ago and causes Harry and Severus’s worlds to be turned upside down. Can the two come together as the family Lily had wanted?
