When a bored noble decides to waste an evening away on a clearly rigged game of dice, the charlatan he's playing against thinks it must be his lucky day. But when an evening of victory ends in a very sharp exit, he doesn't expect to have the posh little prat still following him around the next day. It doesn't matter though: there's no way this pushover can survive outside of his precious town walls. Besides, what benefit could this card shark possibly get from travelling with this poor excuse for company?
Set in a medieval fantasy world of adventures and quests, two highly incompatible young men are forced out of the repetitive lives that they had thought they were happy in to make a new path together... at least until they can convince the other to let them go back to how 'good' they'd had it before.
Every now and again, there will be a coin toss present at the end of a chapter that will determine the progression of the story. As in life, some choices are inconsequential, and will result in nothing but a minor detour, while others have the opportunity to derail our pair's journey completely. So choose wisely, or leave it all up to chance by flipping a coin yourself and following the outcome that your personal luck has chosen for you.

A new story begins... and this time, it's not just about love it's about everything that love hides. Hidden Affection. A tale where emotions run deep even when they're buried beneath anger, silence, and duty. She's fierce, free spirited, and unpredictable a 24 year old with a heart full of spark, rebellion, and unapologetic dreams. He's mature, composed, and everything she swore she'd never fall for a 28 year old man bound by rules, reputation, and silence. They're nothing alike. She's chaos. He's calm. She questions everything. He follows structure. But sometimes, it's the opposites that burn the brightest when they collide. When their worlds crash into each other, sparks fly but not the pretty kind. It's messy. It's intense. And beneath all that chaos... something begins to grow something they both try to deny. A journey that starts with misunderstandings, cold stares, and unexpected encounters... A story where hatred slowly softens into something unspoken. Where boundaries blur. And hearts, unknowingly, begin to lean in. Tropes you'll find in this story: β’ Arranged Marriage β’ Professor x Student β’ Chaotic Couple β’ Slow Burn Romance β’ Opposite attracts This is not your typical romance. It's about stolen glances, denial, unsaid feelings, broken rules and hidden care and the slow unfolding of affection that was never supposed to happen.
