Fated To My Cruel Step-Brother and His Enemy
"What if I don't like him? What if he doesn't like me? What if it's a bad idea? What if he's bad? Ugly? Or what if he doesn't find me attractive? Oh, God. I have so many ‘what ifs’, Mom.”
She took my hands in hers. "Nimue, you are beautiful, intelligent, and kind. Any man would be lucky to have you. Don't doubt yourself."
I looked down at our intertwined fingers. "I'm scared, Mom. I've never felt like this before."
She squeezed my hands. "It's okay to be scared, darling. But remember, you're not alone. I'm here for you, no matter what."
Mom was here. She had always been. I shouldn't be so scared. If she said it was going to be okay, it should be okay… eventually.
