    Summary

    If you seek a story with a difference, you have arrived at the right place. This narrative unfolds along two timelines: the past and the present.
    This story is mostly told from Severus' perspective, delving into his burdensome past. It is a story of guilt, violence, and poor decisions, with you as the listener. Yet, are you truly the person Severus perceives you to be? Or do you harbour different intentions? Fortunately, he seems willing to offer you what you seek. At least, it appears so. But what if it is you who ultimately determines his fate?

    A new chapter is published approximately every two weeks. Should time permit, perhaps more frequently.
