Two years of silence, one wedding date
Would not recommend, frequent updates that change storyline!, (private) You were sixteen when Dorian brought you into this house. No family left, no choice given. Just a room, a name to carry, and a future already written in ink you weren't allowed to read. For two years, Dante walked past you like you were furniture. You watched him bring women home, learned exactly how invisible a person could feel while sitting at the same dinner table. But you have decided to let those go, forgiven and are ready to move on. he knocked at your door. "the wedding is in 6 weeks". Those 6 weeks were a whirlwind but culminated in you both developing a deep love. But the marriage is new, sex and intimacy are new, you are still learning each other, and still figuring out how to balance everything that is expected of both of you. After a confrontatin with Isabella and Dorian things seem settled.. wiil it last?
