Unrequited Love Doesn't End With Marriage

The moment Duke Argus saved her, a refugee, Miel fell in love. And it's been eight years since she earnestly buried that feeling in her heart... "Marry me," he says to her, now a capable officer. "You seem to be the most steadfast." What he wants is a contract marriage, where she will remain duchess until he can pass the title down to his nephew. As always, a cold man... He said he would take care of everything, her younger siblings' education and her family's debt, as long as she didn't produce an heir. So, she accepted it. She was able to hide her emotions from everyone until the end.
