Maximilian Croix has just woken up the morning after her forced marriage. Is everything as it seems or will the arrival of a stranger change everything?

A re-telling of the manhwa Under the Oak Tree, by Suji Kim, from Riftan's perspective-- starting at the very beginning. Inspired by the INCREDIBLE works of @pinayheartnyc (please give us more!! I'm here because I can't get enough of you!) Dialogue is not mine, it is taken from the English translation so that it maintains continuity. Story is by Suji Kim's book 1 and Riftan's POV posted by ScoreVi

He had it all-money, power, a life most people only dreamed of. But Riftan Calypse was empty, hopelessly in love with a girl he lost long ago. One stormy night, a crash nearly ended everything... until the woman who saved him turned out to be her. Maximillian Croix-the only one who ever held his heart. Now, fate had given him a second chance at the love he thought was gone forever. ✨💗

"What do I look like to you?" The question stumped him, rendering him unable to move from the spot as he follows the crack of light pillow around her and the words he knew from the moment he met her cannot be spoken because it feels like it would do not justice. She looks like everything. *Characters belong and UTOT belong to KSJ*

"Make a baby with me." Riftan spits out his wine in surprise at the statement. Almost thirty seconds worth of choked coughing was then followed by him shooting her an incredulous look, dark black eyes widened with surprise. "Excuse me?" Maxi could only blink up at him expectantly. "A baby. We should get one." Riftan's eyebrows raise, setting the goblet of wine on the nearby table. "Why are you saying it like we're just buying a basket of apples at the town square?"
