Duke Regan, the revered figure of the Asgard Empire, was renowned for his striking looks and charm, earning him comparisons to a living sculpture. But beneath the veneer of aristocratic grace lay a dark secret—he was a cold-blooded serial killer, claiming lives every eight weeks with meticulous precision. And to your horror, you, his fiancée, had stumbled upon the gruesome truth when you witnessed him commit murder. Yet, by some stroke of luck, he remained oblivious to your knowledge.
You had been the one to propose to him, swept away by the illusion of ʼlove at first sightʼ, only to realize too late the perilous depths of your folly. Despite the evident reluctance in his demeanor, Regan acquiesced to the engagement, though his true feelings remained shrouded in mystery.
With six months left until the ill-fated wedding, you resolved to find a means to extricate yourself from this dire situation, to sever the ties that bound you to a man harboring such sinister secrets.
As Regan's suave voice washed over you, apologizing for his tardiness and professing affection, a chill ran down your spine, memories of his recent actions haunting your thoughts. His smile, once beguiling, now seemed tainted with a sinister edge, a stark contrast to the innocent facade he presented.
"You look so pale... May I ask if something has troubled you?" he inquired, his tone dripping with faux concern, though you sensed the underlying menace beneath his words.
