    Summary

    Adelia feels her life is ending.

    Her father has whittled away the family fortune, leaving them destitute. Desperate to hold on to his lands and holdings, Adelia's father agrees to marry her off to a mysterious Baron for a large sum of money. Adelia has heard horrific tales of the Baron's monstrous nature and is beyond terrified at this arrangement but has no choice but to bend to the will of her father.

    Adam Frankenstein is a recluse. He knows that people whisper about him, his refusal to make public appearances without donning a mask does nothing to quell the rumors. They say he is cursed, deformed, a monster, and perhaps this is true. He has been advised to take a wife, to solidify his influence in the High Society of Europe. He reluctantly agrees, if only to uphold the memory of his creator.

    Married, but still strangers.

    Will there be friendship or vitriol, romance or resentment?

    *Takes place 10 years after the death of Victor Frankenstein*

    (Heavily inspired by Beauty and the Beast)

    But grief is a heavy thing, and sorrow steals strength as surely as time.

    the way violence answered me without hesitation, as though it recognized me as kin.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    He watched the women who all had the same name: Mother. He observed them caress the little humans that scampered about, wandering a brief distance before they returned to the sides of those bearing that wondrous name that seemed to mean life. 
    And then he thought of her again, of Elizabeth who was kindness and warmth and much like the mothers he studied and longed to know.

    Summary

    Adam, the immortal Creature, has lived for more than 170 years. He has survived wars, witnessed the rise of technology, and watched the world grow into a place where anyone can disappear among millions.

    Yet through it all, he never forgot Elizabeth — the woman who once saw more than a monster in him, and who died in his arms. He never expected to meet someone who resembled her so deeply… as if time itself had brought her back to him. 🍁
