The Autistic Lord's Wife

Summary

I was chosen as a Thorne family daughter-in-law from childhood.

At twenty, I married Asher Thorne, a man with autism.

For five years, Asher consistently disliked me. He recoiled from my touch, let alone shared a bed with me.

Then, he met a girl.

In front of her, he reined in all his quirks, awkwardly striving to be agreeable. He would write songs for her, and give her gifts. Even his study, a sanctuary I was forbidden to enter, was flung open to her without reservation.

I knew Asher had found someone he liked. And I knew I no longer wanted to care for him.
