Why Did Dumbledore Trust Snape Novels & Stories

I had all day to mull over the fact that Draco had interrupted our conversation last night. Azrael’s confession hadn’t just caught me off guard. It tempted me to dig into the pit at the back of my mind, where the dark memories of that year were buried deep. Despite how much I tried to keep my distance, I truly was beginning to trust him. Still, that trust would only go so far. His loyalty lied with Lunette—and I wasn’t her.

in question was clearly not Raymond. "At the moment, that's what it looks like." Diana kept her tone steady and factual. "I already called him. His response was unclear." His anger did not surprise her. Albus had spent a lifetime building a reputation for absolute integrity. Now it seemed everything he had built might collapse in his later years. If Theodore was truly involved, Albus would never be able to erase that stain. Diana wanted nothing more than to turn Theodore in herself. Most likely, Albus would do the same. However, that decision could not come from her.

“Because Diggory isn’t like that.” Sofia folded her arms. “You can’t be sure.” “I can.” I shook my head. “Diggory has always been honest with me. I’ve known him for a long time, and he has never given me a reason to doubt him.” “But he’s Edris’s friend.” “I know.” “So what if he’s protecting Edris? What if he’s feeding you things to make you believe something that isn’t true?” I looked at her. “Sofia, please. I understand why you’re worried, but Diggory wouldn’t do that to me. He’s helping me because he knows how much Julian meant to me. I completely trust him.”

"Wait, you believed me when I said Isis kidnapped and tricked me?" "Yes. I do believe you, and it makes sense; even Damien has his suspicions too, but there is no adequate proof for him to fully believe. As for me, I believe Isis is capable of doing such things, but the thing is, he really doesn't see the bitch in that light, not one bit. I do not say this to annoy you, but they share a little past, and that might be why she is one of the few he actually trusts- only slightly though." I took a moment to register all he had said. He believed me. Those words were like music to my ears.

I mumbled as I paced round the hallway. "And you got so busy that Draco now put so much trust in your brother. Layzal is now his favourite and I think that eoulf be staying forever." "What??" I yelped. "Are they both up to something??" "Why would he be creating a bond with Draco after knowing who Draco really is?? "The fvck!! Are they trying to ditch me out?? Are they really on my side or they have an ulterior motive??" "Darn it!!" I cursed, as many questions now flooded my head.

"Before. When we were sitting here having coffee and talking. You should have told me then." "You weren't ready then. You were planning to steal from us. You saw us as obstacles, not allies. If I'd told you we were connected to your father's death, you would have run. Or worse." Edmund stood up. Came to stand beside her. "I needed you to trust me first. To see that not everything here was a trap. That some of the care was real." "Was it real? Or was that manipulation too?"

"Or he's programmed so deeply that we can't detect it. Aldric's techniques got more sophisticated after we exposed Silverpeak. What if Damon's transformation went deeper than we know? What if I'm in love with someone who's still fundamentally controlled?" "What if you're using fear as an excuse not to trust someone who's earned it?" The words hit harder than I wanted to admit. "That's not fair." "It's completely fair. Damon has done everything right. Questioned his conditioning. Rebuilt his identity. Made independent choices consistently for two years. At some point, continued distrust becomes your problem, not his." "I know. I just—what if I'm wrong, Ro? What if I let myself fully trust him

We were trapped in what seemed like an old dungeon that wasn’t in use anymore. “Why did you guys execute the plan without me?” I asked. “I didn’t know if we could trust you.” Calvin said. “You left with Cade and I didn’t believe you weren’t going to take one of their offers. After what you did to Sadia you don’t have the best track record. Plus, Lexus is your mate, so I didn’t think you’d pass up the opportunity to peacefully be with him here in this castle. We couldn’t take the risk.” I’d be lying if I said I didn’t understand.

I walked out of the office, my back straightened even though my bones were screaming in tiredness for the first time in months. “I don’t think Selene would do any of those things you’re speculating,” Kairos said. The most interesting thing about all these isn’t even me but Kairos. Over the years, he had always been the one who never believed anything from anyone. He hardly trusts. Or better still, he doesn’t even trust anyone. Including Darius who had been with us from the beginning. Yet, he trusts Selene, whom he met weeks ago. He had never even heard about her or seen her prior to the day she was captured and we saw her here.

SELENE POV "You can stop this now if you would just give yourself up to Damion," the Sorcerer said angrily. "Yet, you would selfishly save yourself when you could save the lives of thousands. You disgust me." The sorcerer's words haunted me as I mended the wounds of those who were injured during the conflict only hours ago. How was it that Damion had twisted the sorcerer's perspective to the point where he would join Damion's side? I understood the desperate need to stop the witch trials and burnings, but how could he trust Damion to that degree?
