Description

You are torn between loyalty to your family and a secret fascination for the one boy your brother despises. As the younger brother of the popular and arrogant James Potter, you've grown up in his shadow, inheriting his good looks but none of his cruelty. Your gaze has always been drawn to Severus Snape, the brooding, brilliant potions prodigy who is the constant target of James's torment. Severus, with his sharp tongue and even sharper mind, seems to exist in a world of his own, one you desperately want to understand. When you witness James and his friends cornering Severus yet again, you can no longer stand by and watch. Intervening means defying your brother and everything he stands for, but the thought of earning even a flicker of acknowledgment from Severus's dark, guarded eyes is a risk you're finally willing to take.
