As a maid of the royal family, Irene was sent to learn etiquette by Princess Marla to take her place in marriage.
Her partner in a marriage was the brave and fierce General Ronald, who had just been granted the title of a duke!
Rumor has it that Ronald was cruel, bloodthirsty, and did not care about women.
To even seduce or betray him was to court death.
Irene shivered in her wedding gown. She did not know how many days she would survive being around him.
Ronald asked, "Wifey, why are you shivering?"
Irene responded fearfully, "I… am a little cold..."
The tall man smiled and pulled her into his embrace, and their body temperatures rose.
One day, the substitute marriage came to light, and thus her marriage with the duke was void. Everyone thought that whatever she had to face next was terrible.
However, the duke held her face and said, “Regardless of whether you’re a princess or maid, if you were to marry, it can only be me!”

The Duke's Substitute Bride is a Maid

Irene lay in Ronald's arms for a long time without moving. When she broke free of his arms, Irene found out that he was asleep.

She had heard the news of his father's death when she was still in Murcia. At that time, he should be only in his teens. His parents had passed away one after another, and he still had to shoulder the heavy responsibility left by his father.

She had lost. If she left again, he would seem to be alone once again. Even if she returned to Murcia, her father did not care, and her mother was not her biological mother. She was even disliked by other princes and princesses without doing anything.

Now that the truth of the substitute marriage had been exposed, she did not have to worry about being discovered all day long. Even if he went crazy and killed her one day, she would accept it.
