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.

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…

Helping Him (R18)

Desmond wasn't ignorant to how he behaved whenever he felt any space form between he and his wife. Even if it was space he made up while overthinking, it was space nonetheless. 

He knew he burdened her with his thoughts yet she never once told him to hold back and behave. 

While she had certainly denied him a few times, his nonverbal begging was normally met with a yes. 

She asked him to kiss her and he selfishly wondered 'To what end?' as he lowered himself and their lips met. However, he would be understanding if there was nothing else and they stopped at a kiss. If she didn't express her reasoning, it wasn't his job to figure it out. 

He respected her boundaries just as she respected his when they were only beginning and she didn't push him to reveal himself. Even if she was curious, she read him well and knew when to stop. It was the same in their intimacy. Body language was equally as important as spoken word.
