_ _ _ MXFXF relationship. Please read the note
_______

She was married to a wealthy alpha when she was 20.

She was forced to live as a widow at the age of 21 despite her husband being alive and well.

Anabella lived her life suppressing her emotions and what she felt, all for the sake of her family. Her parents sold her off to secure a future for their Alpha son, while the family she got married into was not ready to accept her.

Her husband hated her, his gaze searching for someone else among the crowd. And her son-in-law sought the image of his mother in someone else, not giving her a chance even to get close.

Life was not...great. So, Anabella decided to end it all and run away. 

If she were going to live as a widow, despite her marriage, then she would make the best of it and ensure that she would not have to repress herself.

After all, even if she was married, Anabella was not marked. And for some, that was enough reason to accept and welcome her to her new life.

The Bride Widow

James spent the day at the bakery, quietly observing Lucy from his spot near Anabella. His young mind, sharp and curious, took note of her every move.

He watched as Lucy fumbled with tasks, her hands trembling slightly as if the weight of unseen pressure bore down on her. The tension in her movements was palpable, and it only increased as the day progressed.

Lucy seemed aware of James's eyes on her, and it unnerved her. The more she noticed him watching, the more mistakes she made. A dropped tray here, a spilled cup of coffee there—small mishaps that gradually piled up, drawing attention from the other staff members.

By midday, Lucy's anxiety reached its peak. Her face flushed with embarrassment, and her breath came in quick, shallow gasps as she realized the mounting errors she had made. The last straw came when she knocked over a stack of fresh pastries, sending them tumbling to the floor in a mess of crumbs and icing.
