Duchess of Orin
King Leonardo was fuming after he received the reply from Ronan Joseph. If not for the royal etiquette, he would have slashed the young bastard's head.
Apparently, Joseph men's obsession for the Duchess of Orin ran deeper than he had the inkling. From his sources in the Prime Minister's residence, he had heard about the dead Joseph's obsession with young Calliope but never had King Leonardo ever fathomed that Joseph's son shared the same thoughts as his father.
Duchess of Orin, Calliope Wilding wasn't an ordinary woman. Her late husband was among the most wealthy men of the empire, her father was a national hero who had sacrificed all his life for the welfare of the country and the widowed duchess who had disappeared from the public eye after the death of her husband was a greater character than people knew about.
