i lay there, hopelessly surrounded in a black haze. my eyes are deep, blue, and sunken in. my whole body is breakable, a body of glass. 
my husband, duke seibert, went to war. a
gruelling war against our neighbouring country, he is said to have fought against the nations prince. there was little hope. despite his power, there is no doubt about the fact, he will fail, and he will die.
i never believed it, i prayed and prayed and held my hands together, blindly hoping that my husband would march through the duchys gates, unharmed; but after weeks turned into months, and months turned into years, my body caved in. i stopped eating, i stopped moving. i felt nothing but undeniable sorrow. it's been 3 years, and finally, the few soldiers returned from battle - 
and the duke wasn't with them. 
the news spread quickly around the castle, as i lay hopeless. my whole world has broken apart into tiny splinters, one splinter of hope, and one splinter of sorrow. 
wich one will pierce my skin?

That's quite a sigh. A man's voice, deep and observant, breaks through the silence. Immediately, I straighten up, as if being pulled by an invisible string. My eyes dart to the source of the voice, and there he stands. Tall and composed with a posture so impeccable that it makes me wonder if he has a military background. A pair of clear blue eyes gaze at me expectantly from behind a mask that molds perfectly to his face. His features are strong and angular, his jawline sharp. His attire is immaculate, every detail of his ensemble meticulously pressed and tailored to perfection. As he steps closer, the tiny golden coat of arms pinned to his chest catches the light, momentarily blinding me. Standing in front of me is the Duke. I lower my gaze. The less he sees of me, the better. All he needs to remember is the lady in the blue dress and my job here will be complete. -- In a world of glittering ballrooms and masked deception, a humble governess steps into the shoes of a rebellious noblewoman, risking everything to save her family.

As secrets unravel and hearts collide, she must decide: will her charade cost her everything? A lush story of love, identity, and second chances, this story promises a happily ever after where true hearts triumph over society's expectations. ** Inspired by the glittering world of Bridgerton.

Her grief consumed her, warping her into something she no longer recognized-someone desperate to undo the tragedy regardless of the cost. Being the heir to Isidora Morganach, a legendary 15th-century witch who mastered a sort of forbidden ancient magic, she strived to turn back time and rewrite the past with her unusual magical capabilities. Did she succeed? Or is this a completely different reality where she could see only echoes of her other self-fragmented, fleeting glimpses of what she might lose? Could she save Cedric this time? -------- A deeply intricate and emotionally charged story exploring timeline divergence, personal identity, grief, and redemption-with a hefty dose of Hogwarts intrigue and carefully woven canon divergence. This is about second chances, fighting fate, and proving that sometimes, just sometimes...everyone can live. This one's filled with love, darkness, and all the happy endings, for the brave few willing to fight for them. Buckle up, readers, this is going to be a long, transformative journey!
