My Once Handsome Husband

Marriages are not a thing for love. They are a binding contract your parents make when you are a child and you will have no say in them. You are left to hope they bargained well. When Delaney Simms was born she was a beautiful baby everyone was sure would grow up to be as beautiful as her mother. So when Lord and Lady Adair approached the new parents to arrange a marriage for their handsome eldest son they were quick to accept. They had money but no title. The Adairs had titles and estates but they were falling into disarray due to lack of funds. It was the perfect arrangement. The children grew up and the fortunes of their families reversed. While the Adairs grew more and more wealthy, Delaney's parents passed away and she lost everything and had to live with her Aunt and Uncle. Her marriage contract was still binding though so at least she had that for her future. That was until word came that her handsome future husband had been sent to defend the kingdom against a dragon and had returned scarred and angry. Unable to escape her contract, Delaney was forced to marry the man who was now more of a monster. But could she ever learn to love him? Once they are married she learns there is much more to her scarred husband than meets the eye and she is soon swept into a life of witches, fairies, unicorns, pirates, and more. Delaney has made it clear she will never love her husband and he knows that. He makes a deal with her so they won't have to stay married forever. But what happens if now Delaney is the one to change her mind?

Boys Day Out and Girls Day In

 After four days of being sick in bed, Delaney was starting to feel much better. Ms. Bird insisted she spend one last day resting though just to make sure. Mason didn't have an overprotective maid looking out for him so he was out of bed as soon as he was able to be.

 Vincent had agreed with Delaney that it would be a good idea to take Ian with him to inspect his fishing boats. Mason and Bernard had both jumped at the chance to get out of the house so now they were going along too. Right before they were about to leave Vincent decided it was time his younger brother got some fresh air as well.

 Delaney slipped out of bed and peaked out the door to watch her tall husband go striding down the hallway to the door to Miles's room. He rapped on it loudly. When no answer came he knocked even louder.
