***Completed*** 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.

Another Presence

 

Jessamyn took a deep breath, forcing herself to meet the wolf's gaze. "He's not thinking the same as you, is he?" she let out a dry laugh.

The wolf remained silent, his eyes reflecting the moonlight with a mysterious depth.

Jessamyn's thoughts raced, trying to piece together the tangled emotions she felt. Jerrick had never shown any qualms about being with a woman he didn't love. But if he felt the same intense, confusing emotions she did, it was an entirely different matter. She understood him more than she wanted to admit.

Yeah… It is not under our control. He's probably bewildered by it just like I am.

"He could have taken just anyone as his bride…" she said, her voice trailing off as she tried to make sense of it.
