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…

Everything Together

Leonor wondered for such a long if they would ever be close enough for her to go on the winterization excursion around the duchy. Yet there they were, hours from leaving together and the duchess was too excited to sleep. 

They already went to bed late after spending the evening in an intimate embrace so she didn't understand her restlessness. 

The duchess rolled yet again and Desmond finally sat up, having been woken up earlier when he felt Leonor get up from the bed and check out of the window to see if the sun had risen and, if it had, how high it was. 

In the darkness of the room, he scooted closer to his restless wife underneath the blankets and wrapped an arm around her as well as one of his legs over hers so she was forced to lie still. 

"Am I going to have to tie you up to get you to sleep for longer?" he asked and gently bit the bare shoulder that was suddenly in perfect reach of his mouth.
