The Duke's Unwanted Second Wife

**Mature Content** Eilika Wolanski is the eldest daughter of one of Varos’ most respected merchants, but respect has never brought her kindness. A childhood accident left a scar across her cheek, and with it, a cruel label she can never escape. The “Unwanted Woman” of Varos. Mocked in public, pitied in private, and treated like a blemish to be hidden, Eilika grows up learning one painful truth, beauty matters more than character in high society. So when an unexpected marriage proposal arrives from the powerful House of Kingsley, no one believes it is real. The groom is Damian Van Kingsley, the widowed duke of Varos, feared for his cold temperament and admired for his unmatched looks and wealth. Rumors follow him like shadows. He has a secret mistress, a broken heart drowned in alcohol, and worst of all… A son he barely acknowledges. For Eilika, marrying Damian isn’t a dream. It’s the only option left for survival. Damian, once the kingdom’s most desirable nobleman, has been nothing but a hollow man since the death of his first wife. He has abandoned his responsibilities, pushed away his child, and lived with one vow burning in his chest. He will never replace his first wife. To force him back into duty, his mother arranges a second marriage, one he never asked for, and one he refuses to accept. Damian swears he will never touch her , will never look at her and will never treat her as his wife. But Eilika isn’t the greedy noblewoman he expected. She doesn’t ask for his affection. She doesn’t crave his title. She doesn’t even want his love. What Eilika wants… is something far more dangerous. A family. And perhaps that is the very thing Damian has been starving for all along. ~~~~ “This bed will remain cold until your last breath.” Damian’s voice boomed through the dark chamber. Eilika didn’t flinch at his words. Instead she replied gracefully, “I don’t seek love, Duke. You can visit your secret mistress every night… Just don’t come near me.” This marriage was never meant to become real, until the Duke's heart begins to betray its own rules.

It was an unconventional female-oriented, reverse harem Cultivation novel, where the protagonist lives a shamelessly blissful life with her nine Taoist Companions. As for her, she was the villainous supporting female character who fights the protagonist over men. Unable to resist the powerful plot, she was still thrown to some roadside Evil Cultivators. However, in a deviation from the original story, a man with immense Cultivation appeared and annihilated those Evil Cultivators. And she grabbed onto that man's clothes... and became pregnant. To prevent her son's Spirit Root from being dug out, a heavily pregnant Celeste Grant went to find the child's biological father. It's just that his identity caught her completely off guard. That man turned out to be the head of The Demonic Sects, Javier Sinclair, the number one Demon Cultivator in the world—a figure everyone on The Righteous Path vows to hunt down and kill. A villainous supporting female character and the leader of The Demonic Sects—what a perfect match! In this Cultivation World, the weak are prey for the strong, and might makes right. The supporting female character is destined to be a stumbling block on the protagonist's path. From now on, she will seize the protagonist's opportunities and eliminate her men. She'll focus on Cultivation to become stronger, get fabulously rich and stunningly beautiful, make a few inventions on the side to bring some entertainment to The Cultivation World, and before she knows it... the entire Cultivation World is at peace...
