***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.
Jessamyn didn't want to give up yet. She punched and kicked hoping that would buy her time. Buy time for what? She didn't know. Who did she expect to help her, she had no idea.
She had no one by her side who could help her. The little boy was the only reason she kept on fighting. If only she could protect him for a minute more, she'd be happy.
She did stop them from getting the blade for almost a minute. But then her punching and kicking annoyed the men. While the burly man held her hair, the other man held her hands and fisted his hands to punch her face.
Jessamyn gritted her teeth. She was a lady. She never got punched in the face. She probably would get disfigured. She was about to lose the one thing going for her—her beauty.
But that poor child might lose his life…
