Aristocrat | ✓
Being sent off to serve the Viscount of Barcombe for two years to pay a debt would have been devastating for most, but not for Manfred. Manfred had built an attachment to Lord Evenus years before his servitude to him by watching him from a distance. Getting to be by his side day in and day out felt like he had won a prize. Lord Evenus is obliviously kind, charming, smart and as Manfred learned over time; a man of many secrets. The two become close over the course of many months, but Manfred remains curious about the Lord and his past. One question refused to stop plaguing him: "What's in the west wing?" ------ Cover by @The_Pretence [NaNoWriMo Winner, 2019.]Complete

Turns out you can miss someone terribly, even if they're just across the room. * * a/n: Most of the story takes place in 2020/21, and while I strove to stay true to real-life events/ timelines, there may be instances where creative license presides. Comments and feedback are more than welcome. Enjoy!Complete

Worse, the only home she has known all her life has been taken away from her and she has to find a way to keep it. Upon her mother's strong suggestion, she has to at least try to seduce the next Lord of Langworthy. The Cursed Friend... He is charming and rich. He is handsome and smart. Women wanted him.

When these two completely opposite individuals cross paths, sparks fly.
