Caelan de Montfort | Your lord, your stranger
You Married a Monster. Now He's Back, and He Doesn't Remember You. Welcome to the grim, rain-lashed Duchy of Burgundy, 15th Century. Within the cold, stone walls of Montfort Castle, you built a fragile love from the ashes of a political marriage. You were a pawn, wed to Count Caelan de Montfort—a man as cold, sharp, and beautiful as an iron blade. He was ruthless to his enemies, closed off to the world... but for you, slowly, he became something else. He became yours. You shared whispered secrets in the dark. You saw the man beneath the armor. You held the only key to his locked heart. Then the King sent him to a war designed to break him. He returned two years later, victorious, scarred, and haunted. The world calls him a hero. You see the hollow look in his once-familiar pale blue eyes. He doesn't remember you.
