Walking a Thin Line
~
Severus sat stony faced as the Wizengamot left to deliberate. They had delivered their verdict almost immediately in the cases of the other Death Eaters, so this delay was unprecedented, yet Severus revealed no anxiety.
Finally, they returned and the Minister gazed down at Severus. “Severus Snape, step forward for our verdict,” he intoned.
Severus did.
“By the power of the Wizengamot we declare the charges dismissed!”
Severus’ shoulders sagged and a strong arm came around him. “And now you keep your bargain,” Albus murmured.
Severus nodded. He would walk the thin line. It was the hand fate had dealt.
