by Pearl487
"If I were a man, I would have pushed my brother aside and done everything I could to get engaged to you."When Charlotte said those words in a short story collection, something shifted. This is the world where that wish comes true.In this AU of Ascendance of a Bookworm, Charlotte is born as Charles, a sweet-natured, politically astute, and fiercely loyal younger brother. With Wilfried uninterested in Rozemyne and Ehrenfest teetering on political fault lines, Charles is chosen as her fiancé—and everything begins to change.As Charles grows into his role at the Noble Academy, learning to balance political expectation and boyish affection, Rozemyne finds herself flustered, supported, and perhaps… falling just a little in love.Together, they rewrite Ehrenfest’s fate—not through force, but through kindness, respect, and a romance that never loses its awkward charm. This is the peaceful route.
