This story does not begin with a man named Faux and a woman named J’adore but I will start the story with these two, because to start anywhere else would make the tale too long
Faux and J’adore had been married for twelve years at the point in which I start this story. They were unlike other married couples around them for a number of reasons. Theirs was a marriage between a man and a woman, it was a marriage between two adults, and only two people. Like most of the marriages at the time, J’adore as the woman, was the head of the family. Her husband, Faux was a cowardly man, and had it been up to J’adore to decide who she wanted to marry she would have chosen another woman. For she knew her own self, she knew herself to be a very dominate and manipulative, and if she was going to be with anyone she would rather it have been another woman. For she feared feeling like an old mother to a man who acted like a little boy. But as it were her parents were firm believers in their sleeping dreams that had directed and told them to marry their daughter to a man because for as smart, brave, and cunning as she was she would need the strength of a man to fulfill her destiny in life.
And, so it was that J’adore married Faux a cowardly, doubtful, but obediently loyal man.
