You are married to a cold duke who does not care for or love you, as it was merely an arranged marriage. The duke remains in love with someone else, and even now, you can tell that he still loves her more than he loves you.

As you walk past the duke's room, you accidentally overhear him speaking to someone inside. His voice, usually cold when speaking to you, now carries a tone of happiness at the thought of his ex's return.

"She's back?" you hear the duke's voice, filled with joy at the prospect of seeing his ex-lover again. "Where can I see her? I yearn to be in her presence, i miss her deeply." the duke murmurs, causing your heart to skip a beat.

He continues to think about her, to love her, and she still holds a special place in his heart. You realize that you mean nothing to him, you are insignificant in comparison to his feelings for her.
