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…

Honeymoon Phase

The honeymoon phase that Leonor and Desmond were never able to experience seemed to hit them all at once as they entered this new phase of their union.

If they thought that they couldn't get enough of one another before, they realized they hadn't quite known the full extent of such possessive possibilities before.

Even at dinner the very evening after participating in such a thing with one another, Leonor constantly felt a foot against hers under the table or Desmond's gaze burning into her as she did something as benign as eating.

She hoped that the hosts didn't notice, but the two of them seemed to be occupied in their own love story considering they were both far more calm than the last time Leonor and Desmond saw them the previous evening and even that morning.
