《Tutoring | Severus Snape x Reader | Edited》Chapter Twenty Four
Advertisement
Recoiling into your seat you stared down at the desk before you, tears threatening to spill like they did every night in your dorm room. You let out a heavy breath before making eye contact with the professor, "It won't happen again Severus" standing up you quickly gathered your things before leaving the stunned potions master to his thoughts. Tears trickled down your cheeks as you ran through the halls to Lupins office, it had been a long while since you had seen him outside of classroom activities and currently it seemed only right to go to him. He already had suspected your feelings for Snape, though you hadn't come clean. 'I have to tell him the truth' you thought finally standing in front of the door to the professors' office.
You balled your fist, knocking loudly on the door so that he would definitely hear you. You could hear some shuffling until suddenly the door opened, Remus seemed surprised to even see you before his expression became worried. "Oh god (Y/N) come right in" he spoke as he rushed you into the room before using a charm to close the door after you. Sitting down amongst the mess of books on the floor you stared down at your feet, feeling embarrassed about the fact this was even happening. You could hear him quietly shuffling around in the background for a short while before he came over to you, handing you steaming hot chocolate with a kind smile.
"Now then" he charmed a wooden chair to come over to him, carefully sitting down he looked at you worriedly. "Remus..." you muttered looked down at the drink he made you, "I don't deserve this..." looking back at him you frowned, furrowing his eyebrows he shook his head. "You absolutely deserve it! I mean look at you you've been crying!" he exclaimed reassuring you, you let out a sigh starting to shake your head. "No, I don't... Remus I lied to you..." you confessed before once again moving your gaze away from the professor. Lupin let out a nervous chuckle before putting his hand on your shoulder, you flinched in response moving away slightly as a tear dripped into your hot chocolate.

His smile faltered as his expression became more serious, "(Y/N) you know I hate pressuring you for answers however if this is a serious matter I need you to tell me what you lied to me about." He leaned forward placing his hot chocolate on the floor next to him. 'This will only ruin your reputation... Stop what you're doing...' the voice in your head had finally come back, shaking your head vigorously you looked him dead in the eyes. "Professor Lupin, I had a romantic relation with Severus Snape," you stated in a small panic, his eyes widened and his jaw hung slightly agape. You jumped as you heard him start laughing profusely, "I knew it!" he chuckled wiping a singular tear from his eye, "I'm sorry my dear (Y/N) it was just too obvious" he spoke finally calming down from his laughing fit.
Rage. That was the only word that could describe your emotions as you darted out of his office. Storming to your common room, you pushed past everyone in your way until you made it to the door. "Fucking pureblood" you spat, the door sneered at you as it opened. Running inside you headed straight to your dorm where you collapsed once again onto your bed.
Screaming into your pillow, at the fact you had hidden away from everything for no reason whatsoever. 'The teachers here probably didn't give a single shit we were dating! and I just went and ruined everything!' you continued to rant in your mind until suddenly everything stopped. Every thought in your mind, every emotion you had. You felt yourself choke slightly on your tears before finally letting out a sob, letting out every bad feeling you had felt for the past two months. 'I'm all you need' the voice murmured softly to you, "you're all I need" you muttered in response.

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!
