When I Love You, The Fog Rises Ahead Chapter 1

My brother was my benefactor. He took me from a beggar's den and gave me the identity of Lady Celeste of the Shaw family.

But I, shameless as I was, fell in love with him.

I thought I could bury this feeling deep inside.

Yet, with the decree of marriage in hand, sending me far away to wed in a foreign land, it dawned on me—Alexander had known all along.

But now, I restrained myself, standing still, head lowered, hiding my expression from view.

By the time I came back to my senses, Alexander had already disappeared, leaving only a faint scent of pine behind, proof that he had been there.

When did things between us turn out this way? I couldn't recall—or perhaps I refuse to.

It had only been three months since my sixteenth birthday, yet it felt like a lifetime ago.

That morning, Alexander had smiled at me, telling me to wait for him to return so we could celebrate my birthday together.

But I waited, and waited. Dawn broke the next day, and still, there was no sign of him.

In the end, what arrived was a marriage decree, sending me to wed in the far reaches of a foreign land.

It was Alexander who pleaded for this fate on my behalf.
