His whole life turned into a joke, when Leonardo Thawyne the proud son of Duke William Thawyne, came to know that he was not the real son but a swapped kid. And now to save his inheritance he would have to marry the real heiress.
Evangeline Rossador, a simple music teacher from a town, was content with teaching music to kids and having a garden in her home. But her whole life turned upside down when she was announced as betrothed to infamous cruel duke Leonardo as her father's last wish before dying.
They both were hardly accepting the fact that they were bound in a forced marriage when life played another game and she found herself standing in front of her died father.
Soon more deaths started to occur and they both find themselves standing in mid of many misunderstandings and conflicts.
How would this chaos be solved? And would they be able to find love in this politically enforced marriage?
“I asked what were you doing there?” she glared back at the roaring man who was trying to show his rights to her.
“I was dancing with the Earl Nickolas,” she replied, looking back in his eyes.
“Theodore go and bring the fingers of Earl who has dared to touch what is mine.” came the reply with an evil smirk.
“Now tell me, my dear wife,” he whispered as he came close to her, “which part of your body have he actually touched?

Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"She should be the one to decide." replied Leo without any hesitation or prejudice.

Though the statement was simple, it was too rare to hear that. Most men have the right to decide what their wife could do as it was a highly patriarchal era where all the rights belong to a man! And being a woman was a crime in itself. There are very few who give the right to women to decide for their future.

"Very well, then I will arrange a test for her."  everyone nodded in unison except Evan.

The old woman smiled and her eyes softened when she looked at Evan who was standing there awkwardly. He was not able to make head or tail of the situation. Only a month ago she was living a simple life and now she was struggling to make her place in the noble society, she did not want to be a part of it in the first place.

He liked docile Evan more!
