"Things in life aren't simple for anyone. One may go through a life of hardships meanwhile one may experience little. Either way, everyone goes through at least one thing in their mortal body that causes them to view everything a little differently, whether it be minor or not. I'm not sure what category I'd be put in. Not that I have anyone to ask anyway."

What should one do when they find themselves suddenly in 1899? This was certainly not a question Aria ever thought she would ask herself-not yesterday, not today, and certainly not on the 2nd of October 1899. After all, she is just a junior journalist at an independent media company with dreams and passions, living a simple life. She is determined to make a difference by telling people's stories and giving a voice to the voiceless. What she truly seeks is normalcy and happiness, hoping to move past the trauma that has haunted her for the last ten years. But everything changes when she purchases an antique silver box from a mysterious stranger who speaks of fate. Ignoring her warnings, Aria wakes up overnight as a 21-year-old aristocratic lady in a world where societal norms confine women to strict codes of behavior. With her modern sensibilities clashing against the rigid expectations of 1899, she meets historical figures she had only heard about in her father's history lectures, making her question the nature of her new reality. As she navigates her new life, Aria must contend with a pestering mother eager to see her married off, a bickering elder brother who constantly challenges her, and a pair of ocean-blue eyes she just can't seem to look away from. Torn between two worlds, Aria must confront questions of destiny, family, and love. Will she fight to return to the life she once knew, or will she embrace the possibilities of a life she never imagined?

"B-Ben" "Yea," I said breathlessly "I've never... I don't know if I want to" "I wasn't going to let it go that far. Not yet" I admitted. I didn't want to scare her, it's just not the right time. "Do you want me to stop?" Her chest was rising and falling hard, she was getting flustered. She reached up to my shoulders and to my waist with her shakey hands. "I don't... I don't think so..." --------- Clodagh is thrust into a life she can't escape from. Taken from her apartment late one night by a mysterious man, a 20-year-old university student from Ireland is introduced to a new and strange life with her captor, Ben. His intentions are unclear; although obviously infatuated with her, can she figure out why she is here? She loses herself to survive, forgets her old life to be at peace in her new one, and forms a strange connection with the man who made it all possible. So will she wake up from this dream as she discovers the twisted and horrifying secrets of the reason she has been brought here or will she stay in this twisted fantasy long enough to lose herself completely... The longer she stays in her dream, the more reality slips away. She needs to come up for air before it's too late.
