The Merchant's Bride

[ON HIATUS!!!!] What are the chances that a selfish, spoiled and arrogant daughter of a noble man in the little town of Griffinwald would fall head over heels in love with a foreigner, an affluent merchant who bathes in the very waters of pride, arrogance and bloated ego? What are the odds that the universe would plan their meet in the most dramatic way; a missing handkerchief flying off with the wind; Scared horses whinning loudly in the distance, a banging thunderstorm is the grand plan. What if this merchant has travelled this far to seek out a certain girl who should become his bride, only to land his heart in another woman's bosoms? ___________ EXCERPT ____________ "The housekeeper is not," said she. "And I am not dumb enough as you think. I can figure my way out of here." "You can?" "Yes, I can." "Hm." Rochester travelled his hand up to his lips. Bussing his mouth sensually with his thumb, he felt his lips divide. Hoping it would have the desired effect on the girl, he said, "I am still confused. Why haven't you left here already? Is there perhaps something else you would need me to do for you? Want to warm my bed perhaps?" "You are disgusting, sir! And I hate you!" Louisa yelled, and in a couple of sprints, she was outside his chamber, shutting the door with a slam. ====== PS. This book is set in thesame fantasy world as my other book, "The Dark Lord's Maiden." You could add up the other book to binge read up to the latest chapters to understand the personality of these characters. But then again this book can also be read as a stand-alone, apart from TDLM. NOTE BELOW! The first chapter has been renamed “Prologue [Silver blue] ” and the former content has been changed. Please clear cache or re-add to Library if you cannot access it. Cheers! And happy reading COVER ART BELONGS TO ME. DO NOT STEAL! ínstαgrαm hαndlє: @nαncчjímσffícíαl fαcєвσσk @ Nαncєє Jímí fα¢євσσк ραgє @nancy writes

Louisa's face lost all its colour. "Why do you hate the idea so much; of me being together with your boss?"

"What does it matter if I do? And what does it matter if I don't?"

"Then you should not be in here muttering such gibberish things to further upset my mood. I should have guessed that this pleasant behaviour of you serving me tea, was a bait to get me to loosen my guard around you. Pfft—"

"Should you blame me though?" Mrs. Phellipe was busy adjusting the single-layered cuffs of her narrow sleeves, contentedly. "Your real enemy is not this grumpy old woman standing in front of you. As much as I want to see you in pain for a variety of reasons and have you kicked out of the Estate, I prefer you made the choice by yourself, and left of your own will, retaining a little dignity in the process."

Louisa started to feel her heart thudding beneath her chest. She was shaking with fury, she bit her lips hard enough to make it stay.
