Shackle of Love

I looked out of the carriage window as my wedding dress shimmered in the sunlight, layers of silk and lace pooling around me like a beautiful lie, heavy on my skin bright with promises I had never made , while I travelled toward another kingdom Valemere. A place that had never existed for me only in stories and whispered sold to a merchant before i was even born, my destiny written in a time when I had no voice, no name, no choice in life that was now unfolding before me. Until I met him -- my saviour in the most twisted sense of the world, my kidnapper, my forced husband, my undoing-- the man I was never meant to meet and yet somehow I couldn’t escape loving: velos Dreadmoor Blackveil, the bandit king, the most feared name wishpered across the kingdom a shadow men warned children about and soldiers prayed they would never cross, hunted by kings and destined somehow to become the center of my unravelling world.
