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…

His Medicine (R18)

Leonor lowered herself to her knees in front of Desmond where he sat on the cushioned bench at the foot of their bed. She spoke volumes of how shocked she was by the way her mouth hung open.

The duke wore an unbuttoned white shirt and pale brown under shorts and stared guiltily down at his wife after she realized he truly had gotten hurt when she punched him earlier with one of her mana-shielded hands.

"I told you I was hurt, didn't I?" he asked slyly, knowing very well he had distracted her so she wouldn't pay attention to it anymore.

"You could have fooled me," she uttered. "In fact, you did."

Even though she had tapped out most of her mana that day, there was a bit of mana she hadn't touched once. Her healing mana wasn't necessary because Quinn made sure to control his mana so precisely that he never truly hurt her. Even with his throwing of mana at her, he was prepared to pull it back at any second.
