My Disfigured Duke Husband Helps Me Plot My Revenge

A powerless woman’s worst nightmare is marrying someone against her will. When those who are supposed to protect her betray her in the vilest of ways, Leonor is forced to marry a Duke known for his cold nature and repulsive appearance. 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. He garnered the King’s favor by doing the impossible in battle. Unfortunately, any achievement is eclipsed by his appearance and unbearable personality. In a kingdom that idolizes beauty, there is no room for someone like him. At first, Leonor finds life with the Duke to be what she’s used to - walking on eggshells and never speaking what’s truly in her heart. 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. However, in a moment where she feels cornered, Leonor confesses to the Duke that she’s in love with someone else. The progress she has made with the Duke comes crashing down around her. Will her magic abilities be enough to convince the Duke not to throw her out? If she can make herself useful to him, perhaps she can gain his sympathy somehow…

Almost Like a Jealous Lover

Desmond had Leonor and Stephano was left getting ready by himself. He thought he had Quinn but realized he didn't even have that much.

Even though there were maids around him seeing to it that his appearance was perfect for greeting guests and opening the ball, he felt all alone. 

It was pathetic to be approaching his 30s and relying so much on the friendship he pictured when bringing Quinn into the palace. All it had done was destroy their expected relationship. 

He was still lost and even more lost after the sparring that took place between him and the other man. 

The King's thoughts led him to Quinn's guest room. He walked towards the bed.
