The words leaving his lips sounded so good that I had to look to make sure he'd actually said them. Before I knew it my body was slowly leaning towards him and even in my dazed state I didn't miss his inching towards mine. • • • Follow Athena Kingman as she experiences life and love in ways that she's never imagined before.

15/04 ヾ(･ω･*)ﾉ Eseralda was fine until absurprise arranged marriage pops up and now she's to be married to the person whom she despises most in her life. But is it really that bad? *Author's Note* Just a throw away book I wrote. I liked the idea, but not enough to really build a mature story from it. Maybe you'll like it maybe you won't. I'll update it until it's complete. Please excuse any errors as I didn't proof read it as it's not something I'm deticated too. It also probably won't make sense in some parts since I'm making it up as I go. Copyright © 2017 MortxlLyfe All Rights Reserved
