A tale of romance blossoming on the bus between the reserved outsider and the girl stuck in self-doubt and going through the motions. Early morning shifts, working into the afternoon...Deidre finds herself falling for the handsome stranger who joins her bus rides to and from her job. ======================================== The prompt(s) I used: "You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see everyday on the bus." "I think that you're not as dark as you want people to believe."

Jade-Lily Bo'ehr is the wife of the General of the army of Tsuchengko. Everyone is in danger due to a growing rebel army, the Gongjensu, that threaten not only them, but all the other kingdoms. When Jade breaks a law for the safety of her husband and her kingdom, she is exiled-never to return, never to see her family again. She goes to Arrian, a kingdom very different from her own. She grows there, she makes friends. But the threat of the Gongjensu hangs over them, and Lily's fate becomes more and more entwined with them, while her husband is still far away. She can only hope that they make it out alive.

Highest Rank: #26 in bridge ===================================== It's been so long since I've had a real home. A real home being more than just a place to sleep.
