The year is 1152 and Bella Swan lives happily with her older sisters Angela and Rosalie in England. The three girls put all their trust into their father, who is solely responsible for earning enough money to be able to provide and care for them. So far, Papa has never disappointed them but things change when their mother passes away a few years after Bella's birth. Not only do the girls and their father go through a difficult time full of grieving and sorrow but financial problems strike the family as well. As Charlie Swans cannot seem to pay of the loan he took out so many years ago, he makes a decision no father should ever make: he sells off his youngest daughter Isabella for marriage to a laird. Though the sisters are shocked to say the least, they know their father wouldn't make such a choice if it weren't absolutely necessary. So begrudgingly, Bella agrees to leave her family behind and get married to Laird Edward Cullen - a Scotsman. Needless to say, the latter doesn't make the situation any better for the future husband and wife, after all, the animosity between England and Scotland has been going on for years...
With both of them being stubborn and more than persistent in their personal beliefs and values, Edward and Bella begin to form a rather unique relationship. And though it takes days for Bella to get used to Edward's huge castle as well as his constantly changing mood-swings, she gradually starts accepting the fact that she now holds a high position as his wife. Moreover, his amazingly good looks make it difficult for Bella to come to terms with her conflicting feelings for him, and, before she knows it, she is head over heels for her husband. However, despite the immensely passionate nights that he spends with his attractive wife, Edward shies away from allowing the feelings he harbors for Bella to grow. Yes, he cares for her but unfortunately he doesn't trust her. Bella learns from his relatives that Edward has gone through an extremely tough time when he was just a little boy as witnessing the murder of his parents has been taking a toll on him. Knowing that, Bella does not force Edward to confide in her, even though there's nothing she wants more. And so they continue living their lives: with passionate love-making at night and refraining from opening up during the day. But what happens when the person responsible for the death of Edward's parents comes back and threatens to take away all he loves? Just when he thinks he has discovered something deeper than love with Bella, will it be snatched from his life once again?
Join historical Bella and Edward in this wonderfully written story by just-a-crazy-fanpire! What I love most about this fanfic is that each character has been given an immense amount of depth by the author. To adopt the writing style of the past is not an easy thing to do in the first place, and yet fanpire does an incredible job in not only doing that but also enabling the reader to connect with each of the characters. Your heart will definitely reach out to Edward for his troublesome past and to experience Bella thawing out his icy edges with the power of love is simply amazing. There are tons of historic/time period stories out there in the Twilight fandom, and let me tell you that this one is for sure in the top five of that category! Although the couple start out pretty rough in the beginning of the story, please have faith in the two because they do get their HEA (which makes all the angst in this story so worth the read!). You have to understand that they are from opposing families and not only do they have to learn to understand each other, but they also have to deal with their problematic pasts and need to face any future troubles. This story, that is written from a third-person's perspective, should not be missed at all. Laird Edward is waiting for you to check him out! ;D
