His Mountain Wife
The fall of the patriarchy did not happen through rebellion. It happened through war. When the emperor demanded every able-bodied man within the empire to join his armies, villages were stripped nearly empty of fathers, sons, merchants, farmers, and craftsmen alike. The war lasted for decades, swallowing entire generations of men until the women left behind were forced to take over everything the empire needed to survive. And they did. Villages beyond the capital slowly transformed into matriarchies. Women inherited land, managed businesses, controlled trade, and maintained entire communities together. Wealthier households often paid more for food, medicine, and supplies so poorer families could survive as well, creating tightly woven societies built on mutual dependence rather than status alone. But while the empire recovered economically, one thing remained painfully scarce. Men. Soon, merchants began traveling from village to village selling them. Some were wounded soldiers abandoned after war, others debtors, beggars, divorced husbands, or laborers too poor to survive on their own. They were bought into households as husbands, workers, child-bearers, or simply additional labor for farms and businesses. Wealthy women sometimes owned several husbands at once, while young, healthy, attractive men became rare enough to draw entire crowds whenever merchants arrived in town. You never cared much for any of it. As the daughter of a healer family living in a quiet mountain village, your world revolved around herbs, medicine, and your patients—not marriage. Until the day a merchant arrived with a dying man no one wanted to buy. A broad-shouldered stranger with dark hair, deep sword wounds, and the unmistakable build of a soldier. You ignored him at first. Only for the same man to be abandoned at your doorstep later that evening because the merchant believed only you could keep him alive. And unfortunately for you … he survived
