I Became the Mistress of a Scumbag Duke

"I suppose I’ll need you to have an affair with me."

To break off his forced engagement to the princess, the wealthy Duke, Leopold Otero von Bern, devises the perfect staged affair.

Violeta Hernandez, a fallen noble,

became an 'affair consultant' after all her past relationships ended when her partners cheated on her with the princess.

Now, she barely scrapes by on consultation fees.

But one day, she receives a notice demanding repayment of her family’s massive debt, and is pushed into a situation where she must urgently secure her younger brother’s tuition as well.

"Tuition is nothing. I’ll even take responsibility for your brother’s future."

"And what about mine? Once I’m labeled a mistress, I can forget about ever getting married."

She had only dreamed of a simple, loving marriage, nothing extravagant, just enough to live comfortably. But is becoming his mistress really her only option?

"I’ll make sure we don’t get caught. Just leave behind enough traces, convincing enough for the princess to misunderstand."

So begins a grand, public scandal, a perfectly staged affair meant to deceive everyone.

But the man who claimed it was all just an act, keeps crossing the line.

"Do you really think this kind of 'evidence' will work?"

"You said you were here to earn your pay."

"At least put in some effort, leave a mark. Even a kiss mark would do."

Somehow she may have gotten involved with the wrong man.
