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…

My Disfigured Duke Husband Helps Me Plot My Revenge

The King and Duke were at an impasse. They stared at one another, not knowing what more could be said.

Desmond dreamed of when he could be Desmond and not what the orphanage called him. Unfortunately, it would have been hard for an orphan to have a foreign name. He was renamed for ease of adoption yet resisted it as much as he could.

Then he met Leonor all he wanted to be was the Valerio she knew and loved. He felt like he had lied to her when she was the one who made him, him.

If only he could have remembered it all before the King got rid of Valerio's life. Since it had been his name for the past few months, he much preferred to be called Desmond. It was a name that struck his core rather than what was given as a placeholder.

He thought of presenting himself to Leonor with all the contradictions. Stealing her away from her father yet wanting her to remain the heiress. He wanted to rescue her from a bad place yet he didn't want her to see him at all.
