Did Snape Love Lily

Severus Snape didn't really "love" Harry, but he definitely shared an extremely deep connection with the boy who lived. Snape's love for Lily Potter, Harry's mother, meant that he looked out for Harry around the clock at Hogwarts, making safety his first priority thereby. Yet anger bordering on hatred for James Potter (Harry's father) meant that Snape and Harry had a tough relationship wherein they were not friends. Perhaps a word better than love could describe Snape's relationship with Harry: but it certainly was deep and complicated.

Ever watched a tale where the knight in shining armor turns out to be the villain and the suspected villain turns out to be a guardian angel? That's Severus Snape for Harry Potter. Although they started off on the wrong foot with Snape being seemingly hostile towards Harry due to some old grudges, Snape had always cared for Harry in his own ways. He'd been protecting Harry since the beginning, working undercover against Voldemort, even risking his own life. The antipathy and hate he carried was pretty much a façade. Undeniably, his protection methods were a bit unorthodox but those in turn guided and toughened Harry for the battle ahead. What transpires to be a classic sense of hating, in the beginning, rounds up to a touching instance of sacrificial love about Snape’s feelings for Harry’s mother Lily, and hence for Harry himself.

Well, this part of the Potterverse gets really deep. Voldemort's killing of Snape was a matter of convoluted intricacies, rooted in his beliefs about the Elder Wand's allegiance. Voldemort believed in the 'wand ownership transfer through murder' theory. He was convinced that Snape, who had killed Albus Dumbledore, was the master of the Elder Wand. Consequently, he believed that to become the rightful owner and unlock the full power of the Elder Wand, he needed to kill Snape. Now here's where it gets darkly ironic. Voldemort, an epitome of cunning and power, was misled by his own theories. The Elder Wand's allegiance had already shifted to Harry, not through murder, but disarmament. Draco Malfoy, not Snape, was the one who'd disarmed Dumbledore prior to his death. Harry later disarmed Draco, making him unbeknownst the wand's genuine master. Yet, Voldemort's misinterpretation led to Snape's tragic end. Snape dies, in the end, revealing another truth to Harry through his memories—a truth about his undying love for Lily Potter. Snape's death, thus, turned out to be one of the most heartbreaking moments in the books. Through his death, a misunderstood character transformed into a tragic anti-hero, etching a permanent place in readers' hearts.

But nope did not fit for this one! Snape is not Harry's real father. That has been well established through and through the books. However, Snape's complex character and his unexpected affection for Harry can lead some people to suspect this.

Because of a previous agreement they had made, Dumbledore is killed by Professor Snape. Dumbledore, burdened with the curse of a dying man due to a cursed ring, asks Snape to kill him when the moment is ripe. The reason for this is twofold, and equally terri fying, on one hand: in order to amplify Voldemort's trust in Snape und now that Draco had lost their mission is complete. Moreover, despite what it cost him emotionally at Fisbaun Iluminic came through every single time ⁷ Snape followed through, though it hurt him greatly.
