Rating/Warnings: G/PG
Prompt: #52- Wolfsbane Potion
Severus slaved over the Wolfsbane Potion, working for hours until his shoulders tightened and his hair framed his face lankly.
It wasn’t for Lupin he put in the immense effort-he didn’t care about his ex-tormentor. It’s for her he brewed one of the most complex potions in existence.
Nymphadora knocked cursorily. “Got it?”
“Don’t I always,” he bit back.
She took the potion, corked for travel. “Thank you, Severus,” she said as she .
“Wait.” The word escaped him without permission. “Why him?”
“Because he loves me back.” She left without waiting for a response.
But so did I.
