"Dearest, Darling, My universe" Set in the late 1800s, Jean Kirstein, an aspiring young artist gets booked to paint a young lady as a gift for her soon-to-be fiancé. 𝐉𝐄𝐀𝐍 𝐊𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐈𝐍 𝐗 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑! CW: classism, smut, violence, arranged marriage, abuse, and more included in certain chapters.

Jean Kirstein has no interest in girls. He'd tried dating and found himself often bored before the end of the evening. Competing for captain of The University of Trost's lacrosse team, there is no shortage of women available to him but he'd rather be on the field. Unfortunately for him, it's the off season. (Y/N), however, found herself feigning ignorance about her desire to love deeply and be loved even deeper. After her first day at college, her hopes for the school year diminished greatly until she grew to know Jean. ----------------- This is a slow burn. A sloooooooow burn.
