witch x human ship

If there is one thing Elise Schwarz does not want, then it is to follow society's strictly bound gender rules. 
As a woman, she is expected to be uneducated. As a woman, she is expected to get married to a man she does not love. According to society, her voice does not matter.
Against her mother's commands, against her mother's hard effort to find her a husband, Elise turns her back away from what every woman in her time is expected to do: marry and have as many children as possible.
The stubborn Lady seems to win - only if it weren't to that pesky Officer Wolfhart and her past as a soldier, even if not a human one.

Story set somewhere before and during the First World War
