The Triwizard Tournament is coming, and with it, a mountain of extra responsibilities for Severus Snape. Between his usual workload, the influx of injured students the Tournament is sure to bring, and the steady demands from the Hospital Wing, he’s on the edge of snapping. The last thing he needs is interference—especially from Albus Dumbledore. But when the Headmaster informs him that a student will be assisting him in the dungeons, Snape is furious. And when that student turns out to be Hermione Granger? He’s nearly apoplectic. Hermione, meanwhile, isn’t sure what to make of the unexpected offer. Brewing potions alongside the most difficult professor at Hogwarts? It sounds like a punishment—or a test. Maybe both. But she’s never been one to turn down a challenge. She’s told it’s a privilege. He’s told it’s necessary. Three nights a week in the dungeons, brewing potions in silence. No praise. No warmth. Just the simmer of cauldrons and the weight of things unspoken. She’s not afraid of him— but she should be. He doesn’t care about her— but something’s changing. It’s not friendship. It’s not trust. Not yet. But it’s something. And it’s starting to burn.
