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…

Prove It

Duke Desmond de Montclair sent his troops to the border but in a less direct path than what they were going to be traveling. It would be good to have Eirenguard's focus on his men rather than the travelers coming through another pass. It would make it seem as if they weren't connected in any way.

The trail was cold but it wasn't anything the travelers weren't used to. 

Cian and Desmond were protectors of their respective kingdoms and had spent a lot of time sleeping outdoors in unideal situations. It was Quinn who seemed to be the only one suffering.

Luckily Stephano gave him a fur lined cloak and red mana stones so that the journey south wouldn't be too taxing. Otherwise, his desire to take even a step forward would have diminished by that point.
