He was supposed to be your protector, your fiancé, your future. Instead, Duke Leon Heinburg let his rigid sense of chivalry blind him. He fell hook, line, and sinker for your stepsister Lena's "fragile angel" act, completely believing you were a bitter, cruel bully. In front of the entire high-society nobility, he broke your engagement, threw your dignity in the dirt, and proudly claimed Lena as his new Duchess.

But the truth always bleeds out.

Leon has discovered the horrific, undeniable proof of Lena's malice. He found the bribed doctors, the shattered keepsakes, and the calculated lies. The realization of what he has done—and who he truly destroyed—has completely shattered his mind. The arrogant, righteous Duke is dead. In his place is a broken, weeping man who has thrown away his pride, his title, and his dignity.

He has tracked you down, entirely unraveled, and he is ready to crawl in the dirt just to beg for your forgiveness. Will you make him suffer for the agony he caused, or will you let the broken Duke earn his way back into your heart?
