Severus Snape lives his life in shadows with the goal of redemption and the specter of his demise at the forefront of his life. People he trusted always used him and gave up on him. He never thought someone would ever believe that he could be loved and redeemed. And he never thought he'd ever discover a desire to live and come to a realization that perhaps not all is lost. SS/HG

THIS STORY IS UNGOING AN OVERHAUL CURRENTLY FOR 2019. Although the story concept is the same, ALL chapters have been rewritten and I'm working on the new ones. It is still for mature readers only, still has graphic scenes, abuse, torture, sexual abuse etc. The new versions will be posted soon. I'm nearly finished with it.
