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

When Brightfin stopped by her door at sometime past the hour of six o'clock, she had felt it then; those giddy jabs that tormented the insides of her belly, kicking mercilessly and tickling all the same. She could not lie about it, her excitement was well overboard and she'd been looking forward to the night out with Rochester just like he'd promised when he came to visit her before.

"Did he tell you where he's going to take me?" she could hardly contain her joy when she asked Brightfin that. She knew her cheeks weren't the only part of her face that was beaming, her eyes had to be glowing as well from how happy she'd got. "Tell me Mrs. Phellipe knows at least if you don't know, and huh, no stutters. Please, help because I am seriously losing my mind here just thinking about it. Tell me she knows where we are going."

All Brightfin did was shake her head.

"No?" Louisa's eyes wore a cloak of disappointment over them. Her shoulders plopped as well.
