After a miserable childhood, it shouldn’t have been a surprise to her that her future was never truly in her hands in the first place. Duke Desmond de Montclair was nobody before the war.

Eventually, things slowly start to change as the Duke learns about the horrors she faced while living with her family. His power becomes the key to her revenge.

A Red-Haired Surprise

For the past two months the Prince had visited her, Leonor didn't know how to accept his kindness at face value. She was constantly suspicious of an ulterior motive, yet she was met with generosity each time she doubted him. 

Deep down, Leonor knew that most of her suspicions were simply because his father, the King, was an evil man to his core. It was hypocritical for her to doubt the Prince because of his father. After all, he could very well do the same thing to her. 

At a certain point, she had to relax her paranoia and accept that nothing was predictable. He had never given her a reason to doubt him. Her best chance at life was being away from her father and he had given her that much.
