The Archduke's Songbird

Lady Jessamyn brought home a ten-year-old orphan when she was eight. He was handsome ^_~. She provided him with a place to stay and warm meals. As they grew up, she desired to marry him, despite their differing statuses. As war raged, he signed up for the military, promising to ask for her hand when he was worthy. Two years later, he became more than what he promised he would be. He became the Archduke of Ayberia. But he broke her heart by marrying her friend. Years rolled away; life happened. She married a man who loved her and fell madly in love with him. She didn't think of him again. But fate was cruel; she was widowed at the age of twenty-one. She lost everything. Seven years later, she met a mysterious wolf while she was out at work in the Archduke's fief. She had a fall. The next morning, she found herself on the Archduke's bed. Did fate bring them together again? Or something nefarious is at play?  Is this a chance for a second love? Will she find out why he abandoned her in the past? Is it possible to rekindle their old love, or is it too late? ----- Join me in this journey. Your comments and votes are appreciated. Gift me to motivate me. Updates will be daily.

Parallel Perspectives

 Jessamyn patted Isadora's head with a smile. "Ethan is wonderful, isn't he?"

When she got married to Joar, Emily stopped her father from giving any valuables. It caused her embarrassment in her marital family. Ethan must have known about it.

 It would have changed a lot, however, if she got a dowry for her wedding with Joar. Joar did add a lot to the dowry from his own pockets but his mother figured it out and it caused a big problem for her in the past.

She was not marrying the man she loved and didn't think any of that made any difference.

She could only sigh silently.

"He is, Milady. I am glad he reciprocates your love."

"He is going to bring his ladylove to his commendation ceremony. He didn't write about it but Emily won't be happy with his choice of a wife. A knight's daughter will not meet the standards permitted by Emily's inflated sense of self for a daughter-in-law."
