Isabelle has always longed for a fairy-tale romance, hoping to find her true love and live happily ever after. However, her dreams are shattered when she discovers she has been sold to the terrifying Duke Cardiego. The duke is notorious throughout the land for his monstrous reputation, having reportedly murdered every bride candidate presented to him. Trapped in a deadly predicament, Isabelle realizes that her only chance of survival is to marry someone else before the duke can claim her. Desperate for a quick solution, she turns to her closest companion, Lix, believing he is the perfect candidate for a marriage of convenience. Isabelle makes it clear from the start that their union will be strictly platonic, promising to remain nothing more than friends even after they exchange vows. Yet, once they are married, Lix begins to reveal feelings that go far beyond simple friendship. His behavior shifts dramatically, showing an intensity that catches Isabelle completely off guard. As Lix’s devotion transforms into something far more consuming, Isabelle must navigate this unexpected dynamic and determine whether the deep bond they once shared can survive the reality of their new marriage.
