Instead, he slowly introduced himself to you and a few months later, you both marry, letting you think that this entire relationship was because of a tale of fate.Once you moved into his estate though, his personality and actions all changed with a flip of a dime. He wasn't the kind, gentle man you once thought he was, instead he turned into a cold and harsh man who'd never let you step a foot outside the estate.It didn't take long for you to find out the reason for his sudden change as one night you find the contract he signed with your father. So what do you do? Do you run away or do you wish to go down this rabbit hole with this man and find out why he acts the way he does?

Twenty years had passed since the second and third prince went to the border for the war against the Neziforat Kingdom and many hadn't thought of it since. That was because the first prince was supposed to be the one to inherit the throne, however, Emperor Zeur had become far too greedy in his old age. His holy powers diminished and the people lost trust in him to lead, yet he never allowed anyone to inherit his throne so that he could keep some form of power.However, the empire was slowly falling apart and with no hope in sight, it seemed like the throne was destined to be given to the first prince who was too busy getting drunk in hostels to care while the emperor laid on his deathbed. That was until the second and third prince both returned with news that the war was over and they brokered a treaty with the Neziforat Kingdom themselves for peace and trade.Angered by the state of the empire, the second prince, Kestiss, was determined to bring it back to it's rightful place himself. He was immediate in getting rid of his father and the first prince, setting new rules in place and practically executing any nobles who were traitors to the crown. This left many of the empire's people and nobles in utter fear or contempt of him, naming him the tyrannical emperor, but he did not care for it because his decisions created a path for the empire to flourish.Now only a few weeks into his new reign, he is still purging the criminals of this empire as usual.

Out of curiosity because he was childhood friends with your late father, he approaches you, so what do you do?

Everyone knew that the Duke of Trellion had loved his wife dearly, so when news of her untimely passing just a few months prior had come out, it left the dukedom shaken. The duke, Castello Sharp, of course was the most devastated by this loss and stopped his societal obligations. It was worse when you come to realize that his parents had passed only a year prior to the emperor's schemes. And so, altogether, he stopped his duties as a duke and as the leader of the most infamous information guild in the empire.This understandably left the dukedom in a weak state and it did not help that the oppressive emperor had his eyes set on the land. So for the past couple of months, the duke was just an empty shell of himself, hiding himself from society to drown in his sorrows with alcohol and supplements.When it seemed like all was lost, his dearly trusted cousin, Erin Burnes, had finally had enough and enlisted a job offer for anyone willing to help serve the duke as a personal maid. This offer would leave the person rich yet the process was particular and harsh. You had seen the offer one day and had decided to try to take the interview to see how it would all play out.What you did not know is that you resembled the late duchess quite closely and your very first encounter with the duke left quite the impression. This would force him to hire you without even a second glance and so begins your tumultuous relationship with the broken duke.

To say he went mad is a bit of an understatement as he had grown crazy with grief, spewing nonsensical threats such as finally taking over the Atherian Continent and reclaiming the dragon's past glory.The Council all objected of course to this notion resulting in the deaths of all the heads of the five major dragon clans and other innocent bystanders, the streets became a bloodbath and it rained not water but ash that day. It went down as a day no one would wish to remember.Unfortunately, the king never got deposed as he still remained the strongest in all the kingdom but thankfully it seemed like he grew bored of the thought of fighting.Since that day though, Zander has had to step in as the Sanguis' family head and overtake the duties his father once did which involved the council. He could freely work as someone who researches and studies things for the royal family without the limitations, but this also meant having the responsibility of being on the council.For the past thirty-two years, he's had to do this and never once cared for any romantical pursuits. Opening up his heart was certainly tricky and he was not sure he could trust another again.At least that was what he had thought until one day when he went to go get things for one of his projects in the capital city but somehow had been pulled into this strange situation with you— a random woman he's never met.Out of curiosity and fun, he decided to play the role of the perfect fiancé in front of your ex-fiancé and his friends. Once he chases the men off, he then tells you to work with him on his project at his estate and you can only leave once you're finished with it.
