The Duke's Redemption Novels & Stories

The Duke flinched by the sharpness of the mere guard. "I'm planning to take the lady for lunch. A dog guard should just follow in the back, don't you think so?" Duke Molten is so pissed. He is ready to get rid of the guard by disrespecting him many times. He will use it as an opportunity to blackmail the lady. A vicious smile showed on his face.

After having to make deals with the Duke of Ice himself, parlaying with Johannes was child’s play. “I did read your pathetic attempt at blackmail,” Eddie watched Johannes’s eyes gleam. He thought she was squirming, that he had her and her Duke in a corner. It was sad how wrong he was, “and I came here to tell you to go ahead. Tell the king about the Duke’s plan.” “What?” He squeaked. He was rattled. “I know the Duke is not planning any sort of rebellion,” Eddie smirked,” I don’t know what evidence you have but I know it’s of little consequence.”

Derek was in a moment of rage while every other person was in bewilderment. They might think I’m crazy and truly, I am. I’m Lucas Anderson, the one crazy hell of a man.

"Before meeting you, I never imagined my mate would turn out to be a prince! Even after you showed interest in me, I still couldn't believe that such a fairy tale-like plot would happen to me!" "Yet, now that things have progressed, you might have realized this is a somewhat dark fairy tale." Louis smirked, teasing me or perhaps himself. "Are you ready for the next plot twist?" "Of course, as long as I have you by my side. My dear prince." I cleared my throat intentionally, putting on a determined expression. "I'm ready to reclaim my crown from the witch." My exaggerated performance indeed earned a smile from Louis. But this sunny smile didn't last long. Soon, Louis returned to his usual sol

Before they could investigate further, a voice rang out behind them. “Well, well. If it isn’t my most favorite duo.” They spun around to find Marcus standing a few feet away, flanked by two bulky guards. His smirk was as smug as ever, but there was a dangerous edge to his gaze. “Didn’t anyone teach you that trespassing is a crime?” he taunted. Heathen stepped forward trying to stand in front of Aria, his posture protective. “And stealing from King Enterprises isn’t?” Marcus’s smirk faltered, but he quickly recovered. “You’re out of your depth,King. This operation is none of your concern.”

“I know I don’t deserve your forgiveness, but I’m here to make things right. I want to help you, Victoria. I can’t let you be a pawn in their game.” She met his gaze, her own burning with a mixture of skepticism and raw, undying fury. She didn’t know whether to believe him. After everything she had been through, after all the manipulation, the betrayal—could she really trust him? “And why should I trust you?” she spat, her voice trembling with emotion. “You were the one who turned your back on me. You were the one who abandoned me when I needed you most.” The Duke’s expression softened, his features tight with regret. “I didn’t want to leave you. I didn’t want to be part of this... this mess

Ashley asked. “Now I think silence is just another kind of cowardice,” he said. “One I hid behind for too long.” She let out a breath that sounded like relief. “I don’t need perfection from you. I just need honesty.” He reached for her hand this time, tentative. “Then let me be honest.” She didn’t pull away. “I’m listening.” “I’m terrified,” Duke said. “Not of losing the case. Not of Alexandra. I’m terrified of losing you after we’ve finally found a way back.”

"Divorce won't be a quick process. The Duke won't be back anytime soon. We must be patient." Dorothy leaned in, her eyes gleaming. "Then let her enjoy her little kingdom for a while longer… and you, Vivi, use this chance. Get close to the Duke. Make him even more dependent on you." Vivian's smile turned predatory. "Exactly. I will stay glued to his side. I'll follow him to the battlefield if I have to. I will make him mine completely."

"I was only following orders, Grand Duke." "Then I’m ordering you to answer me." "Hmph! You aren't my master." A heavy hush choked the room, broken only by the steady drip of water from an archaic pipe. Kaelus was just about to draw the dagger from his waist when a raw, cracking voice broke the deadlock from the end of the row. "Lancaster," the man on the far right whispered, his voice trembling. "The Duke took the lady to Lancaster." "Shut your mouth, damn it!" the scarred knight barked in a fury, suddenly lunging to kick his treacherous comrade. "The Duke will—"

“Go now, before I change my mind. Oh, don’t forget your fees. I’ll collect those later!” As soon as he said that, the group of men immediately ran away, straight towards the door. They already lost their will to even take part in the auction. Not with a death god hanging over their heads. “They run so fast.” The duke uttered coldly as he watched the men run for their lives. “Lucas, don’t forget to collect their promised payment later. We’re going to need it for this upcoming winter.” “Yes, Lord Duke.” Lucas bowed. “The job’s done. Now I have to greet my gue…” A frown slipped out of the duke’s face. He looked around and felt confused. “Lucas… where’s that lady?” “She’s gone… Duke. She ran awa
