Britamund Becomes a Wife

The King’s eldest daughter and the Duke’s eldest son seemed destined for one another since the Princess’s birth. Beginning with a little “prologue” chapter wherein the six-​year-​old Princess wonders whom she will marry, this storyline traces their relationship from their young teenage years, when both struggle against their fate, through to their marriage and wedding night, and their growing affection for one another afterward.

It’s another ongoing storyline, and it will have to be retitled “Britamund Becomes a Wife and Mother” sooner or later.

Theme: A young noble couple's betrothal and marriage
