QueenFrieza

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…

Leonor's expressions were always honest but after their kiss broke apart, she gave him such a genuine look of admiration he thought his heart would burst. No one had ever looked at him with anything outside of mild interest.

He was well aware that a few women liked his face but he had never given them a chance. There was such a difference between passing curiosity and the love he wanted to fill his entire being with. He would have never guessed that the Count's timid daughter would be who tore down his walls and made him rethink his entire life multiple times per day.

"What is there to go back from?" Leonor asked him breathlessly. "I don't want to go backward."
