Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 49
Red light had already begun to seep through the window.
Cassis, who had awakened in the pre-dawn hours, was persistent—as if trying to grasp hold of Adeline before she slipped away again.
Their exchanged, excited voices only quieted once morning finally broke.
Yet, unable to cool the aching warmth between them, neither could fall easily back asleep.
As Adeline leaned against Cassis, feeling his body heat, his large hand gently stroked her hair.
“It tickles.”
At her words, Cassis only pulled her closer.
Though her words sounded like protest, Adeline simply surrendered herself to wherever he led.
“Only like this can I believe the person before my eyes is real.”
Afraid Adeline might vanish again like a mirage, Cassis tightened his grip around her waist.
Ensuring she could never slip away from him.
Adeline didn’t resist his touch; instead, she seemed pleased by his possessiveness, raising the corners of her lips as she nestled deeper into his embrace.
While caressing Adeline’s hair, Cassis suddenly recalled an unnecessary thought.

The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:

- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.

Since it was uncertain whether she’d consent if she knew the truth, Cassis decid
It seems neither one understands love. I guess that is why they are both so tormented and confused. I wish we knew more of the Duke’s background.
- Aelthia Chapter 53 — Paragraph 16
She had no idea what awaited her ahead.
When are these two going to ever learn to be honest and open to eachother?
- Aelthia Chapter 58 — Paragraph 79
Becky pointed at the gleaming éclair.
So all should be forgiven for the convenience of third parties? The Duke definitely needs to apologize with words this time!

Hahaha, the fastest marriage in the world! What is this? As if he didn’t see her a moment ago!
You filthy crown prince, we’ll see who laughs last when you see who married the one you were laughing at, you filthy bastard. May you rot in hell.
Honestly, Adeline is completely consumed by fear; she never tries to think of a solution and just wants to escape.
