Skye got orphaned by both parents at the age of 11. She was the sole survivor of their burning house in a village in the Scottish Lowlands of 1301 in the year of the Lord. After King's Cinaed order, her uncle was forced to accept her in his castle and undertake her upbringing. That is, not exactly himself, or his wife Fiona, but his maids. He didn't even want to take responsibility for Skye in the first place. But no one can disobey the King's orders. When Skye reached marriageable age, her uncle saw it as a sublime opportunity to get rid of her, but he reckoned without Skye's point of view. Skye sent away every man her uncle invited to the castle as her potential future husband. When a new order from the King arrived at her uncle's castle, they welcomed it with delight. But... Her greatest fear would come true. And her future was about to change. Her life would be turned upside down. But she didn't know it yet...

Chapter 1 INFO

Welcome, everyone, to my story. I am so happy you decided to join me on this journey.

I hope you enjoy it.

I would like to share some info about the story.

1/ Story is set in the real world of medieval Scotland in 1309 a.c.

I am referring to historical settings that existed and maybe still exist, and I use them fictionally.

2/ All my characters are creations of my imagination-even the king.

You see, I can't take an actual historical figure and make him into the king that my story needs.

It would be unfair to the king himself.

For this reason, I created a new king as I needed him.

With his whims and oddities and his square judgment

With his laws, rules, and of course, his Orders.

3/ Mainly, it will be a romantic story, but antagonists will lurk for every opportunity it gives them for a strike.

4/There will be pleasant moments, but also nasty ones.

5/There will be deep love but also bad blood, passion, and trials.

English is not my first language, so I ask you kindly to be easy on me.

I hope that all of you will enjoy it.

And finally, If you like it or have anything else to tell me, please let me know with a comment. I will be glad to read and answer.

And finally, If you like it or maybe not, please let me know with a comment.

Thank you all and Happy reading

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

“Gabriel Bryce, how can you stand being so shameless?” Leonica asked, staring daggers at her atrocious husband and his mistress. “This is the house gifted to my by grandmother, yet you dare bring another woman into it?

You have no right to do so!” He spat, taking a step forward and jabbing his index finger painfully into her shoulder, making her take several steps back. “Bare this in mind, Leonica Romero, if not for the wishes of my late grandmother, I’d much rather be dead than associate myself with somebody like you.” *~*~* *~*~* Leonica Romero has always had a long time crush on Gabriel Bryce, CEO of Bryce Empire and Norway’s Business tyrant.
