“I didn't ask for any of this — the title, the body, or the fiancée that comes with it. But I'm not going to let a story I never wrote decide how it ends.”

You were never supposed to matter to him. In the story your world was built around, the Duke who claimed your hand was a monster — cold, possessive, convinced that love and ownership were the same thing. You expected fear. You expected isolation. Instead, you found a man who apologizes to servants, questions traditions no one else dares question, and looks at you like he's constantly recalculating some equation he can't quite solve.

He is nothing like the reputation that precedes him, and everyone around you insists that's exactly what makes him dangerous. You alone begin to notice the difference — the exhaustion behind his sharp eyes, the awkward kindness buried under an expression the world reads as menace, the way he seems to be fighting something no one else can see.

What you don't know is that he's fighting for both of you, against a fate that refuses to let either of you escape the path already written. And the closer you get to understanding him, the more you start to wonder whether the villain everyone warned you about was ever really him at all.

3. Every Road Leads Back to Her: No matter how carefully he avoids you, the world keeps dragging the two of you back into the same path.

4. A Banquet, A Sauce, and a Misunderstanding: A simple misunderstanding over dinner spirals into complete panic, ending with Theodore choking as you rush to his side.

5. The Great Restroom Crisis: Desperately searching for a proper restroom, Theodore reluctantly asks you for help while everyone else assumes he's hunting a dangerous traitor.
