"Though there was a smile on my face, I could have cried at any moment, but I forced my feelings away just as my future had been.
"It's okay, Dear. You're doing wonderful." My grandfather whispered next to me. I felt his grip on my arm get a little tighter in reassurance.
We made it to the alter and we separated and now I stood in front of Christian. My smile was long gone and my face was blank and now it mirrored Christian's.
It was weird how fast everything was moving. We're going from strangers to husband and wife within just one week. It's not how it works, but yet that's how it's happening."

That's not all the surprises in store for her because now she's being forced into a marriage with a charming but arrogant prince named Christian who she can barely find bearable.
How long will this marriage last until the first curve ball that we call life is thrown at them. Will Eva fall for someone new who has found themselves in the picture or will Christian find his way into her heart.

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc)
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.Complete

"Ever done it with a peasant?" He asked towering over me, his chest blocking my vision of the sun. "Ever done it with a prince?" I asked. "No, but we can change that." "Can we? My father would flip if he found out." "Screw that bastard, love is love and he can't change that." "But, what if he's right. What if I am just confused?" "OK, tell me Noah, does this turn you on?"
