Cordelia, who was already beyond the marriageable age, quickly agreed upon the arrival of a marriage proposal from one of the most influential and well-known noblemen. She wedded Leon expecting a pleasant married life, only to be greeted with cracks and mishaps. A beautiful woman who is only a noble by name And a dashing man who is a noble with power. Not long after their wedding, her bewitching yet indifferent and cold husband gave her a contract and declared an agreement. "We are forbidden from meddling with each other's affairs. Do not expect love in this marriage." "And within two years, if you fail to birth an heir, we will have a divorce." Each word was vividly engraved in her mind as she obediently did as she was told, fulfilling her duties as his wife throughout the course of their marriage. However, as the said year approaches without an heir, Cordelia slowly prepared herself to sign the divorce papers and leave. But why is it that Leon, who had treated her badly from the very beginning, was suddenly desperate to make her stay?

{ Inspired by 'La Citta di Smeraldo' and BTS's 'The Truth Untold'. If you don't like long, elaborated chapters and small talk, I'm sorry :( I also do not have a particular updating schedule so I'll try to work on that as well } Anastasia Smith is a simplistic, yet beautiful girl who lives her life as a journalist to pay off her expenses. For as long as she can remember, she's always wanted to recall the name of the beautiful flower her mother had always told her about since she was young, but her mind just can't remember any details about any of it. Every morning, as soon as she wakes up to get to work, her neighbor is always painting in his backyard. His paintings of realism always seem to catch her eye, thinking that there must be a meaning behind each canvas. Turns out the smallest motives can lead to a story of bond. Join the two as they get to know and work with each other through the many challenging obstacles they have to get through in order to find out the true meaning of what they truly mean to each other...Just the typical story of a beautiful girl who dreams and a boy who shuns himself away and seeks happiness through his art...

Edmund Westworth (26), the third Earl of Beaumont, and the most eligible bachelor in London, unknowingly started a tradition he now regrets. At age twenty-two he danced the first dance at the season opening ball at Almack's with a young lady who became the toast of the season. The next year he did the same. Every year since, he has danced one dance, to fulfill his mother's requirement. And every year his dance partner becomes the most sought after girl of the season. Some think he has a gift, Edmund thinks he could pick any girl and 'the ton' would deem her desirable based on his dance alone. His friends disagree and bet him 100£ to choose a dance partner who couldn't possibly entice the gentlemen of London. When her father suddenly passes away, Elizabeth Cavendish (20) has to move in with her aunt's family. With the estate entailed, Elizabeth needs to find a husband quickly or her aunt will install her into a governess or lady's companion position, which would severely hinder Beth's ability to work on her scientific experiments. Garbed in her cousin's horrific dresses from last season, she only has a few weeks to find a husband before she is doomed to tedious work for the rest of her life. She finds an unlikely accomplice in the Earl of Beaumont. Please don't copy any part of my story in any form (including Youtube) without my permission.

Pskov, Russia No one had expected the Germans to come so soon . No one knew the Germans would defeat Russia so easily. Katja Kuznetsova is a nineteen year old girl whose brother enlisted in the Russian army. Surviving the cold Russian winter by herself, she faces her town be occupied and destroyed by the German army. By the gracious act of a young German officer giving her his gloves, Katja cannot help but become infatuated with him. Charming and handsome Wilhelm, who has always had a passion for Russian literature and music, finds himself stuck in a messy war as he becomes an officer. Stationed in his headquarters at the towns office buildings, he starts to fall in love with the famished and cold girl he first laid eyes on when occupying Pskov. Throughout the course of war, the two deal with tragedy, loss, heartbreak, love, lust, and multiple obstacles that could tear them apart. NOTE: For those who do not know, "Katja" is based off of the character Wilhelm Winter from the German TV Mini-series, "Generation War." The book does not accurately portray him from the movie but it is the same person hence why his name is Wilhelm Winter and the gifs are of him. All other characters are fictional persons that I have created. Thank you. Started January 2019 *mature content* *depicts violence, sexual content, strong language*
