Summary
You and Severus have an arrangement.
Twice a month, you come in from Merlin knows where, crates laden with Merlin knows what, and top off Severus’ ingredient stores. Occasionally, you source something particular for him and you don’t ask any questions. The cold, expressionless Potions Master dips into the Potions Department budget and you can pay your rent and bills and feed yourself for a while.
That’s not the arrangement.
------------
Reader is an unskilled laborer working as the potion ingredient supplier for the Hogwarts Potions Master, who she's also fucking; partly to sweeten the deal so he keeps buying from her, but mostly because she really, really, likes it.

Summary
You are the eldest daughter of Rhaenyra, Princess of Dragonstone, and twin to her heir, Prince Jacaerys. When your younger brother assails your uncle in a childhood squabble, your grandsire, the King Viserys, offers your hand in marriage as payment for Aemond's lost eye.
Plighted in a match that is beheld by many and desired by none, you find yourself alone in a nest of vipers, forced to watch as your mother and the Queen maneuver and vie for influence within the court and the Realm. Despite your youth, fears, and insecurity, you know you must apply your will and wits to one claim or another, but this choice becomes more and more difficult as you find yourself further entrenched within the family who would see your mother and siblings fed to the flames.

Bookmarker's Notes
Love it, but the ending misses the mark for me 😔.
