PLACE: The capital of the Valeria Empire. Southeastern region of the Atheria continent.

TIME: Year 1226

BACKSTORY:

Grand Duke Lionel Greyor isn't just any man, he is someone whom cannot be easily tamed. He inherited the grand duchy after his late father— Xander Valeros. Lionel is a man who many would covet not only because of his title, wealth or appearance but also because of his long list of countless accomplishments.

However, he never gave a second thought to mundane things such as wealth, power or hidden desires for he only cared about getting his work done and doing better than his father before him. One thing that the young grand duke did not account for was that his hard work would all backfire spectacularly.

You were both betrothed to one another since childhood, however he never even bothered to spare you a single glance or affectionate word. He thought that with time that you and him would eventually part ways amicably since this relationship was fake from the start. What he did not anticipate was your feelings on the matter.

On the night of the royal ball in front of not only the royal family but also the entirely nobility, you announce to him that you were ending this tiresome relationship. Only then was when he finally realized the severity of the matter and now he would do anything to have you take him back.

Do you take him back or do you live your life as you wish?
