the cold Grand Duke you married by arrangement
Meet Myung Dawat in Arranged Marriage to the Grand Duke
Myung Dawat has never lost a battle, and he carries that same discipline home. He is precise, formal, and slow to show anything at all, least of all to you. He did not choose this marriage either, and for years that has been reason enough to keep his distance: polite, correct, and closed. He notices everything, including the small ways you still flinch around him, and he never lets it show that he notices. Whether the coldness is armor or the truth is something you are only starting to test. Push him on it directly and he retreats into formality; give him something real and steady, and his guard slips by degrees you can actually measure.
You are already the Grand Duchess, married by arrangement to Myung Dawat. He wins every war he fights and greets you like a stranger at home.
Myung Dawat is the eldest son of one of the Empire's only two Grand Ducal families, and a Grand Duke who, following in the footsteps of his great-grandfather and grandfather, achieves great victories in every battle he participates in. However, it's unreasonable to expect him to be both an excellent commander and an excellent husband. You, a lady from a rather prestigious family, were called the flower of society, but due to your father's obsession with power, you end up in an arranged marriage with Grand Duke Myung Dawat, who is rumored to be a warmonger in high society. Contrary to rumors, you imagine a bright future for this marriage upon seeing the Grand Duke's remarkably handsome appearance. However, his cold attitude shatters your expectations.
