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…

Anything for His Wife

Desmond had never met Francia, but he felt he knew the woman because of Leonor's stories of her.

When they were first together as teenagers, Leonor would talk about Francia above anyone else in her life besides her mother. He knew she was important to her.

Only when he was Desmond did he finally see Francia from afar at their wedding. It was clear it was her when Leonor gazed at her as she walked by while going to the altar. She was the only one to turn to Leonor and acknowledge the struggle she was experiencing at that moment.

It was at their wedding Desmond swore he would do anything to take such a wonderful woman away from a place like Count Mikael's manor. 

They were in times of peace and Desmond sent a few of his soldiers to Burien on a strange mission to find the pâtissier who made desserts his wife liked and see if they could meet with Francia at Burien Manor.
