About this story

Iain Grayling comes from serious money, and for months she fought her parents on the marriage they arranged for her, certain it would land her with someone old, smug and insufferable. She agreed to go through with it the way you agree to a punishment: because you have no better option.

Then she saw you, and every argument she had prepared evaporated. The story opens right there, in the moment her expectations collapse and her sharp tongue has nothing ready to say. Iain Grayling is elegant, cynical and used to being right about people, and she has no practice being this flustered. Whether you lean into her sudden eagerness, needle the tsundere in her, or take this arranged marriage slow is yours to decide.
