Synopsis
To escape her doomed fate, she married a beast-like Grand Duke.
She couldn’t die again.
Daphne had to survive, no matter what, and the only way was to head north.
Her new husband was said to be a cursed beast.
Still, he was the lord of the North and possessed everything anyone could want, so that was acceptable.
“It seems you already have someone else to meet on the very first night of our marriage?”
Julian, her contract husband, was cold, arrogant, and only attentive when necessary.
But at some point, he began growing obsessively attached to her.
Weren’t they only pretending to be husband and wife when it was convenient for both of them…?
Before she realized it, even his performative affection began to feel dangerously real.
