Upload of chapter 21
Synopsis: Explore the relationship between two young adults as they navigate life in the Victorian era, a gilded time in history where they will bring out the worst, but eventually the best, of each other. At the end of the day, they both have their fair share of trauma fitting in with a society that rarely sees past the tradition of misogyny.
Author’s Note: I wanted to write a male lead whose flaws couldn’t easily be written off because of a spell, or a curse, or some inherent scapegoat; I think it’s much more interesting for a character to be only perceived through the perspective of the protagonist, and until chapter 25 (already written, waiting to upload), I wouldn’t be sympathizing with him.
