Romantik
The Duke runs his household like a kingdom: immaculate, silent, and absolute. He does not argue. He does not beg. He issues protocols, expects obedience, and keeps their marriage spotless in public. In private, he makes the real vows clear.
If she stays, every rule matters. Every defiance earns a consequence, delivered behind locked doors. He corrects her with deliberate hands until her cheeks burn, her breath stutters, and pride melts into aching, humiliating need.
She fights him at first. She swears she will not be dominated by a man.
But the Duke does not tighten his grip with cruelty. He tightens it with precision, praise, and the slow rewrite of her desire until she starts craving the very lessons she feared. Soon her world narrows to the heat of his gaze, the sound of his command, and the intoxicating relief of earning his approval.
Her crown comes with a price.
And he intends to collect.
