James Godfried

When James was told to marry the Duchess, he didn't take it very well. After the betrayal of the girl he'd planned to marry, he had trouble trusting women. He didn't want to trust them. But a marriage without trust? It's like a trap for both of them. It's neither peace nor harmony. But the Duchess isn't to blame for his trust issues...

So he devises a plan to test her. James dresses in old clothes, covers his good eye with an eye patch, grows a beard, deliberately hunches over, and limps—all so that his wife will find his appearance unattractive. He doesn't touch her, because after their wedding, they both decided to get to know each other better before entering into a relationship. The Duchess had no desire to sleep with him and secretly hoped that, with time, his inner beauty would eclipse his outward ugliness. And James decided that if she failed the test, at least he wouldn't dishonor her, and she would be pure, making the divorce simple.

But at the same time, James arranges for his wife to meet a handsome knight. He's young, courageous, and courteous. Now James wants to know: will she fall for his beauty and commit adultery, or will she remain faithful to her ugly husband? And the most intriguing thing is that the handsome knight is actually James, but without disguise. He introduces himself as Frederick and tries to seduce his own wife. Will she fall for it?

The only thing James didn't take into account was his own feelings in this situation.
