Between Shadows and Stars (гет)

Hera Potter spent most of the summer before her fifth year at Hogwarts isolated from her friends, locked away with the Dursleys. When she's finally brought to Grimmauld Place, she's met with the harsh reality of being kept in the dark by the adults around her. But when she crosses paths with Severus Snape—stoic, mysterious, and clearly hiding pain of his own—everything changes.
As the war against Voldemort grows closer, Hera begins to grapple with the truth of her own role in the coming conflict, her growing understanding of magic, and the painful burden of the secrets kept from her. But her complicated, increasingly intense connection with Snape—bitter and reluctant as it is—becomes an obstacle she never expected. Between secrets, sacrifices, and a relationship that both frightens and intrigues her, Hera must navigate the impossible choice between what must be done and what her heart wants.
A story of growing pain, hidden strength, and the tangled web of duty and desire in a world on the brink of war.
