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?

Painful News

 When Delaney woke up late the next morning she found snow covering the ground. It wasn't deep but it was enough that you could barely tell the difference between the gravel drive and the grass all around it. The wind blew, causing drifts to form against the side of the house and trunk of the great tree Delaney had so many fond memories of. The horses out in the field were covered in their thick, shaggy, winter coats which now had a coating of snow on the top as well.

 Delaney loved Edgewood and it was their home but it was very old and the winter wind whipped through holes they hadn't even known where there before. Once her fire was stoked, the duchess quickly dressed and left her room so a couple of the men could come in and go about patching what holes in the stonework that they could find.
