HP: Embrace the Darkness

Snape finally stopped in front of the white tiger, very close.

At this distance, even a life-killing curse can only perish together.

He shouldn't have gambled, he thought.

Can……

He was still struggling in his heart, but his hand had slowly been raised and stretched out towards Bai Hu.

But he wanted to believe him.

His hand landed firmly on Bai Hu's head, and Bai Hu obediently let him control him, even lowering his head slightly to facilitate his movements.

The beast bows.

A huge boulder fell in my heart, smashing the worries just now and breaking open the dusty heart.

Trust?

Snape stood silently beside the bed, his hand gently pressing on the ferocious beast's head. The white tiger on the bed lowered its head, forming a strange and harmonious picture.

After an unknown amount of time, he took back his hand, along with the emotions he had just revealed, but there was still a sense of relief on his face that he didn't notice.

"you……"

He opened his mouth to say something, but his hand was pressed down by the white tiger's claws. Of course, the sharp nails on the tiger's claws were carefully retracted, leaving only soft flesh pads covering the human hands.

"what happened?"

Bai Hu didn't answer, staring at the red mark on his hand in trance, and then tentatively stuck out his tongue.

Snape frowned at his actions, hesitated for a moment, but still did not stop him.

The tongue gently landed on the back of the hand. The barbs on it were deliberately softened, but there was also a sharp itching. The stinging hand shrank slightly.

Bai Hu paused, immediately let go of his hand, and stayed in place.

At that moment, Snape could actually see a trace of bewilderment and fear on this big furry face.

Snape pursed his lips, wanting to laugh.

He raised his hand to rub Bai Hu's head soothingly, waved his wand, and the red back of his hand instantly turned pale again.

"Is this okay?"

White Tiger blinked and looked at Snape confusedly.

"wait for me here."

Seeing that Bai Hu was confused, Snape lowered his head and pointed at the bed.

"wait for me."

"Hululu"

Bai Hu understood what he meant and lay down obediently without making any other movements.

Seeing him lying down, Snape felt relieved and left the bedroom.

He wanted to go find Nina to deliver lunch, but with the current White Tiger, he was not sure that he could stop his territorial awareness.

"Nina."

The house elf appeared quickly, holding food for five people.

Looking at the food in her hand, Snape hesitated. As the little white tiger grew up, his appetite should also increase?

"Bring another ten...no, twenty servings."

Nina obeyed and retreated, and when she reappeared she had twenty more pieces of food in her hands and in the air.

Worried that the white tiger was waiting inside and ran out impatiently, Snape asked her to put it down and hurried back to the room.

The situation in the room did not change at all. The white tiger who had his head pressed down was still lying down obediently. When he saw Snape coming in, he raised his head.

Snape waved to him, and the strong white tiger quickly stood up and ran towards him.

As it approached, the white tiger slowed down, and finally stopped in front of Snape at a distance of one person.

Snape lowered his head and looked at the tiger at his waist, a little hesitant.

It seemed like there wasn't enough food for twenty-four people.

The white tiger raised its huge head and purred softly at him.

Snape came to his senses, rubbed his head and walked out.

"Let's go, let's eat."

Bai Hu followed him obediently and quietly, and he paused when passing by the sofa.

This is where Nina stayed just now.

The white tiger grinned, his nose twitched slightly, and then his fierce look emerged.

Snape reacted immediately and stepped sideways to block his cold sight, "It's time for us to eat."

White Tiger was a little reluctant, but under Snape's gaze, he left obediently, walked to the table, and immersed himself in eating.

As he grew older, he ate faster. Two or three plates of food disappeared, and the food for twenty-four people was completely eaten in less than half an hour.

Snape looked at the remaining portion of food and pushed it over.

Bai Hu was indifferent, just looked at him quietly, purring lowly in his throat, as if he was puzzled and urged.

Snape was silent, eating expressionlessly under the white tiger's eager eyes.

Today, his lunch was mixed with more than twenty pieces of food, and was accidentally eaten by the white tiger.

The remaining portion was prepared according to the portion given to Little White Tiger, which was twice his usual portion.

This kind of portion is enough for White Tiger to eat, but it would be too much for any person to eat.

The potions master was obviously among them. He took a few hasty bites and tried to push the plate over, but was blocked.

The thick tiger claws pressed down on the dinner plate, preventing him from pushing it over.

Snape slapped his paw away impatiently, feeling suddenly insulted when he looked up and saw the confusion in his eyes.

"Move that thing around your neck and think about it. Not everyone is like you and eats more than 20 servings of food in one meal."

White Tiger was indifferent, still looking at Snape and the dinner plate with confused and confused eyes.

Snape: "..."

Under such an insulting sight, the Potions Master had a sullen face, endured the humiliation and ate half of the remaining food before successfully pushing the dinner plate over.

After the white tiger had finished the remaining food, Snape called Nina out of habit.

The next second he reacted, Nina was already here.

As soon as Nina appeared, she stared at Bai Hu without blinking: "Master Assis?"

She had seen Ases's patron saint before, and the white tiger in front of her was almost exactly the same as the patron saint. The answer was ready to come out.

White Tiger lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at her, while Snape looked at White Tiger warily, fearing that he would get angry.

However, the white tiger took his time and lay down at his feet. His huge body stood in front of him, semi-surrounding him.

A low growl came from the throat, and his cold gaze was locked on Nina, with undisguised anger and murderous intent, but also a bit of depression.

The air seemed stagnant and Nina backed away nervously.

But the white tiger made no other movements, only its thick and powerful tail swung in the air, making waves of sound, like a warning.

"Professor Snape? Master, what's wrong with him?"

Snape stretched out his hand to press the white tiger's head and glanced at her, "This is none of your business. Pack your things and leave."

"Okay, okay." Nina looked at Bai Hu worriedly and kept packing her things.

After she packed her things and left, Snape continued to look at the white tiger.

The outsider who broke into the territory disappeared, and the white tiger obviously relaxed. His whip-thick tail gently wrapped around his legs, and his blue eyes looked at him quietly.

One person and one tiger looked at each other for a moment. Snape took the lead to look away and got up to go to the potion room to refine the potion from the school infirmary.

He did not lie to Dumbledore. The school infirmary has been using a lot of medicine recently, and the last batch of potions sent there has almost been used up.

Bai Hu followed him closely and walked into the potion room.

When he grew up, White Tiger was much more stable and had no interest in the herbs in the potion room. He just stared at Snape intently.
