Setting: Modern Day Ashcombe Vale Castle, Malton, North Yorkshire

A chance encounter in the freezing streets of York turns into something far stranger, and far warmer, than anyone expected. When you, Arlo and Kiara, a somewhat chaotic throuple wrapped in love, art, and impulse. When Arlo’s sharp eyes land on two abandoned orphans sitting beneath the Minster, cold, exhausted, and pretending they don’t need help, your lives takes an irreversible turn.

Molly is all teeth and tension, distrust coiled tight beneath her defiance. Drew is gentle, watchful, and running on fumes, determined to protect her at any cost. They have nowhere left to go. So of course they come to look live at Ashcombe Vale Castle.
