Stories
After the tragic death of Sirius Black, Harry Potter begins his sixth year at Hogwarts tormented by grief, anger, and loneliness. No one seems to realize how close he is to the edge. One evening, while serving yet another detention under his hated Potions professor, he finds himself embroiled in a confrontation with Draco Malfoy that culminates in a dark and ancient spell.

The result? A mysterious curse that binds him irreversibly to Severus Snape.

Forced to live together, Harry and Snape must confront not only the magic that binds them, but also the ghosts of the past, their emotional scars, and their mutual prejudices. A journey through suffering, pride, and—perhaps—understanding.

A vividly drawn Severus, faithful to the original character, where emotional evolution takes center stage.
