    Summary

    Harry Potter is a coddled, spoiled Heir Potter Black in a setting where he vanquished Lord Voldemort as a 15 months old baby, Lily and James Potter have never died, and Albus Dumbledore is not as important as he thinks he is.

    Severus Snape is a genius, yes, but also a scared, insecure, abused, neglected, misunderstood, poor, bitter, snarky, jealous, broken man. At least, that's how everyone see him - everyone, but Harry Potter.

    Summary

    Severus is barely hanging on. He has no friends, honour or reputation left, and the only ones that will associate with him are death eater wannabes.

    When he comes home for summer after his fifth year at Hogwarts, he finds that his mother is dead and his father is missing. To top it all of, some two-hundred-year old contract between the Princes and the Blacks states that Severus has to marry Sirius Black before his 19th birthday.

    He just cannot get a break, can he?

    Summary

    Harry Potter never stood a chance. Severus Snape was straight as a wand, still pining after Lily, and completely unattainable. That was the story - until Death tried to help.

    Now, Harry wakes in another universe… as Hades Potter, twin brother to the so-called Savior. His parents are alive, the Marauders are just as insufferable, and the other Harry is a pompous show-off possibly dating Ginny Weasley. But Hades? He has one mission: win over this world’s Severus Snape.

    Armed with memories from a life of war, a much darker kind of magic, and a dangerous secret prophecy, Hades navigates a fractured Hogwarts, makes unlikely friends, and unearths a future he never dared to imagine - if he can survive long enough to claim it.
