In Austria 1937, Amelie Bauer has been dreading the debutante ball her parents signed her up for, for weeks now. She'd much rather be in her garden, or by herself reading her romance or detective novels. When the evening of the debutante ball arrives, she is met with an ominous man lurking about the grounds. She, soon after noticing him, finds herself face to face with the strangely dashing man as she escapes the ball. His name is Anton, and he some how charms his way into gaining her trust.

[JossGawin] Waltzing Beneath the Moonlight
They fell in love over a waltz. Married because of a promise. And realized-they had chosen the right person, at the right time. ⸻ In a world where moonlight melts into the air, and drunken promises can become destiny, two kingdoms are bound by a marriage pact no one paused to question: Did the one being given away ever say yes? A "princess" who was never really a princess. A prince who refused to choose a spouse from a portrait. And a masquerade ball where everyone hid their faces-until one brief waltz sowed something unnamed into their hearts. They met beneath the moon, strangers. Married beneath palace lights, unaware. ⸻ This is a story of a ring that slipped off. A glance that lingered. And a husband trying to win back his spouse-only to realize he had fallen long ago. ⸻ Originally posted this story on AO3, as I usually use Wattpad for Vietnamese works. But after seeing some folks on X mentioning that there aren't many JossGawin fics in English on Wattpad, I thought-why not share mine here too? So there you go, enjoy!Complete
