***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.
Shadows danced and flickered, their movements synchronized with the magic that enveloped the forest.
Suddenly, her master raised his hand. The air grew still, and the forest fell silent. Jessamyn watched in awe as he chanted softly, words of power that resonated through the trees.
The ground beneath them trembled slightly, and a soft glow began to emanate from a spot just ahead.
Before her eyes, two towering palm trees began to twist and turn, their trunks interlocking in a mesmerizing dance. The glow intensified, illuminating the night with a surreal light. Jessamyn's breath caught in her throat as she witnessed the transformation. The interlocked palm trees shimmered with magic, their bark glowing with a luminescent energy.
"Join me, Jessamyn," her master beckoned, stepping closer to the magical trees. Jessamyn hesitated for only a moment before moving forward, her heart pounding with anticipation.
