All Chapters of Married the Monster Duke: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Everybody in the house is busy preparing for my debutante since the second prince has decided to attend, they made it more luxurious. I have been feeling anxious ever since our last family meal. I will get married after my debutante which will take place in three days. My father still hasn't mentioned who I'll be marrying. I won't ask for too much. I won't even dream about my soon-to-be husband to be so caring or to fall in love with me. I just want to leave this estate. For now, that's all I want."My lady" One of the maids has called. It is about fitting multiple gowns and dresses for me to wear.I sighed, imagining the hours that I needed to spend trying different clothes for me to wear made me feel exhausted as soon as possible. We walked our way through the hall until we reached the room where we would be doing the fitting.I saw my mother sitting elegantly while sipping some tea. "Hello Mother" I greeted."Why are you always late?" My mother asked me like she would be hitting m

After the incident at the party, I was so embarrassed and scared of the duke regarding the time I laughed at him for being lost. We left the party and I am currently following him from behind, silently. "Hmm, I didn't think that the lady that laughed at me would be my soon-to-be bride." He said and I flinched at his words. He stopped walking and turned around to face me. Because of the fear that he would kill me, I immediately bowed down to him. "I-I'm very sorry for that, I didn't know that you were the duke" I replied nervously."Pfft, hahaha" I was shocked at what I heard so I tried raising my head to take a glance at him. Maybe I heard it wrong. When I raised my head to take a glance our eyes met and I instantly bowed my head again."You are amusing," He said while trying not to laugh. "Raise your head, I won't bite you," He said and when I looked at him. I saw that he was serious so I fixed my posture and looked at him properly.Arthur's POVThe lady that I saw near the pond a

Duke Arthur and Beatrice Blanche who was sitting alone in the room were sitting quietly until it was filled with laughter of the Duke. "You are going to be the Grand Duchess of this Empire. You don't have to make a deal with me, do whatever you want!" Arthur shouted full of pride. "You don't even know me, what if I do something that can embarrass your name," Beatrice said shyly. Arthur thought the woman in front of him was very interesting. She was brave enough to make a deal with the Grand Duke while others fainted just standing in front of him but now he saw the lady being shy all of sudden. "You don't have anything to worry about" Duke Arthur firmly said. "Grand Duke, your wedding is about to start," Charles said on the other side of the door. "Well now, let's get married" Arthur offered his hand to Beatrice with a huge smile on his face showing all of his perfect teeth. Beatrice is nervous about what will become of her after she gets married and lives in another place she

Beatrice bit her lower lip, feeling a sudden shyness. She looked down at her cup, tracing the rim with her finger while trying to gather her thoughts. The warmth of the tea had already begun to fade, yet she found herself clinging to the quiet moment like it was something precious.Arthur glanced at her, his gaze gentle but observant, noting every little movement she made. He wasn’t in a rush. He simply watched — content, perhaps, to let the silence settle between them like a soft blanket.Beatrice finally spoke, her voice barely above a whisper. “It’s strange… how kind everyone has been to me.”Arthur set his cup down, his expression unreadable. “Why is that strange?”Beatrice hesitated. “Because… I don’t deserve it.”Arthur’s brows furrowed ever so slightly. “And who told you that?”Her fingers stopped moving. “Everyone.
