But her whole life turned upside down when she was announced as betrothed to infamous cruel duke Leonardo as her father's last wish before dying. They both were hardly accepting the fact that they were bound in a forced marriage when life played another game and she found herself standing in front of her died father. Soon more deaths started to occur and they both find themselves standing in mid of many misunderstandings and conflicts. How would this chaos be solved? And would they be able to find love in this politically enforced marriage? “I asked what were you doing there?” she glared back at the roaring man who was trying to show his rights to her. “I was dancing with the Earl Nickolas,” she replied, looking back in his eyes. “Theodore go and bring the fingers of Earl who has dared to touch what is mine.” came the reply with an evil smirk. “Now tell me, my dear wife,” he whispered as he came close to her, “which part of your body have he actually touched?

Listless Leo

The night was heavy. Evan kept hugging Leo as if trying to assure her of her presence.

Every moment, hissing of leaves or rustling of curtains forced him to hold his sword and sat up on the bed. 

"Everything would be fine. You do not need to worry about it." she said as  she rubbed his back.

He nodded but his eyes were still looking restless.

As if he was waiting for his other to come and tell him more about that cousin of his.

"Evan what if.." he paused as if he did not know how to explain.

"Then you will win again. You have thrown the man out once, you can do it again." she assured him when he sighed as if she was not understanding. 

His healing properties were threatening. Even when Leo was sure at his attacks, the man would never die. Then how could he be defeated.

"You must be tired. Why don't you sleep again?" she asked as she pulled him to her laps and ran a hand in his hair.
