Her life was......
By @Lina IDOUDi
Sixteen-year-old Eleanor Aldern should want for nothing in Regency London. Under the protection of her brother Gregory, Duke of Aldern, and their wise aunt, Lady Bridgerton, her life appears gilded. Yet, behind the aristocratic balls and the laughter shared with her beloved cousin Eloise, Eleanor is drowning. Haunted by her parents' mysterious deaths, her grief has manifested into a bizarre, comic-style curse: she can see the 'narrative text boxes' of people's inner, darkest thoughts floating in the air. When she spots a terrifying, ink-black text box hovering over her brother Gregory’s head - hinting that he bargained their parents' souls to dark forces to secure their ducal title - her world shatters. Eleanor must navigate the treacherous, glittering waters of the London social season, hiding her terrifying sight behind a mask of youthful innocence, while desperately seeking a way to rewrite her family's cursed destiny before the ink dries on her own execution.
