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…

Love Letter

[TW for some of the content ahead]

Leonor didn't get to thank Valerio. 

Her feelings got in the way of her gratitude. She could only pray that he felt her thanks through their kiss. 

When she heard a voice, Leonor turned around, horrified. She recognized who it was immediately. 

Appearing from behind a manicured bush was her father followed by her younger sister who undoubtedly wore a smug expression. They both were finely dressed and adorned with gems and gold. It was obvious to everyone who her father favored. 

Leonor was trembling but she stood protectively in front of Valerio. 

He would lose everything. It was all her fault for not being more careful. 

Simply by associating with her, she had ruined his life. 

"Father, I can explain," Leonor sobbed desperately.
