The daughter of a very well known professor at Hogwarts has just landed herself in the middle of her father and a man she has chosen to love over anyone else. Her destiny to become a Death Eater is starting to come true as she reaches her fourth year as a Slytherin. Can she do what the Dark Lord asks of her while she's trying to be around her love? Find out as you read this cunning story of how Samantha Snape chooses to love the one and only Bartemis Crouch, other wise known as Barty Crouch Jr.

― "I love you more than life itself," ― Althea Potter had always been a light. Where James burned wild and reckless, she glowed warm and steady, drawing people in with her laughter, her kindness, and her stubborn belief that everyone carried a spark worth loving. She was the sister who brightened shadows, the girl who never let anyone feel unseen. Regulus Black, on the other hand, was born of shadows. Cold where she was warm, distant where she was tender, sharp where she was soft-he was a boy sculpted by duty, drowning beneath the weight of a name that demanded silence, obedience, sacrifice. They were opposites, orbiting each other in disdain. She saw him as cruel and unfeeling, and he saw her as naïve and foolish. Yet the world has a way of binding the unwilling, and war makes strange companions of enemies. Slowly, through whispered arguments and stolen glances, Althea discovered the boy beneath the mask, and Regulus found himself yearning for the light he had spent his life rejecting. But love in times of war is fragile. It does not always save. Sometimes it destroys, quietly, beautifully, tragically. And when the end came-as it always would-they both learned that hatred can turn to love, and love can burn into something fiercer still. Something unshakable. Something eternal. Something that could only be called devotion. ☽｡⋆

How will young (Y/N) and young Severus get along during their time in Hogwarts? This is a spin-off of Where Your Loyalties Lie - {Severus Snape x Reader} as in 'what if they went school together'. If you haven't read that one yet, please go check it out BEFORE reading this one, thank you! Again, this is a fun 'little' mashup where the original characters real ages needed to be changed a bit to make this all work, so please bare with me. And most of all - do enjoy, little badgers. ✨️💛✨️Cover made by: @Vivian_TheDelusional ✨️💛✨️
