Summary
After the blood wards collapse and Harry is cast out by the Dursleys, he’s left without a guardian—just as Fudge circles, eager to seize custody.
With little time and even less options, Dumbledore proposes his grand solution; Snape as Harry’s new legal guardian. But a simple adoption on paper won’t satisfy the determined Minister. To avoid Fudge’s grasp, Harry and Snape must set aside their mutual hatred and act as though they’re a devoted father and son.
When he goes undercover with his life on the line and the Ministry watching for any misstep, Harry finds himself wrestling with unexpected emotions and begins to wonder, how long can a lie be told before it begins to feel like the truth?

Summary
Harry Potter is being ignored by everyone who’s supposed to care, takes a fall off a ladder and wakes up in a hospital. With nowhere left to go and a deep mistrust of adult intervention, he escapes to London for a night where things, naturally, get worse. He’s got no plan, a bruised skull, and a wand he’s not allowed to use. What he does get is Severus Snape, pressed into reluctant babysitter duty by Dumbledore himself.
