   Summary

   "We are two souls lost in the shadows, finding light in each other's pain" – Riyabhorkar.

   Hermione Granger was never meant to be bound to Severus Snape. And Severus Snape was never meant to become responsible for her survival. What happens when an unlikely pair is forced together by a curse that demands proximity?

   AU: This story takes place in an altered war-era timeline. Please read chapter summaries for further information.
