The Secret Governess by chibikc
14 parts Complete
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. But when a dashing duke takes an unexpected interest in her, the line between duty and passion begins to blur. 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.

34 parts Complete Mature
She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancΓ©, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.

I looked up horrified to meet his cold blue eyes as they peered down at me, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing some of his beautifully white teeth. "I beg your forgiveness, My prince. I did not mean to offend you by accepting your brother's invitation to dance." I swallowed hard, trying to fight the lump of fear that had started to build in my throat, "I did not think I was allowed to decline." Prince Thomas let out a little chuckle, "Oh, I am not mad at you, Emma." I shivered when my name left his lips, "You have just piqued my interest, that is all."

15 parts Ongoing Mature

In the dim glow of the Slytherin dungeons, Katherine Salvatore learned that power and desire often speak the same language. She lived for control - sharp-tongued, beautiful, untouchable - until Draco Malfoy made her want to be touched. Their love is a secret stitched from ambition, fire, and whispered promises in the dark. He calls her his serpent queen. She calls him her undoing. Together, they are everything the world warns against: too proud, too dangerous, too consumed by each other. But on the night of their wedding, the weight of legacy threatens to tear them apart - ancient names, bloodlines, and family vows demanding obedience over love. Torn between the love that shaped her and the one that owns her, Katherine must choose which sin to keep: desire... or deception. Because in a world of pureblood politics, power games, and whispered temptation - love is the most dangerous curse of all. A/N:THIS BOOK IS A SLOW BURN!!
