In a dystopian AU where the Dark Lord triumphs and Severus Snape can claim any reward he wishes as one of the chosen 'Faithful,' all Severus longs for is a life of peaceful seclusion – and an heir. But it seems that he might have to sacrifice one for the other when he petitions the Ministry for a hand-witch to produce a child and is presented with one of his former students.

Wonderful story, inspired and well-written! Personally, I'd have like more smut generally and more romance between SS/HG in the epilogue, but I'm a hopeless romantic/pervert, so I almost always want more smut and romance!

So the plot thickens lol glad HG is safe. But with the Malfoys to save who knows what next is to happen.

Drat that horrible cow Umbridge and her weird torture tendancies. She is evil .

Thanks again for writing.

What a wonderful story.  You did a superb job of interweaving the suspense and doling out little tidbits so we the reader did not lose hope.

I haven't seen anything recent by you so I hope that means you are writing original fiction.

Thank you.  Thank you so much for killing the Toad.  It doesn't happen often enough in tales.  Though I would like Snape to get his happily ever after....

Hopefully Hermione will figure out that the story Remus told her was meant for her to open her eyes. 

Ooh please keep Snape safe.
