A vampire duchess ends her seven-decade marriage when her husband dismisses his affair with a mortal woman as insignificant against their eternity.
Seventy years of documented devotion collapse in a single night when leaked footage reveals Adrian feeding on a young human woman and whispering that he belongs to her until dawn. He frames the encounter as a momentary lapse, arguing that a mortal's brief lifespan renders the betrayal meaningless beside their shared immortality. His wife, however, recalls the absolute condition she set at their wedding: she would endure poverty, war, and death itself, but never a third person in their marriage. When he kneels expecting forgiveness earned by decades of history, she serves divorce papers instead, stripping away the life they built and vanishing into a century of self-made independence. The duke remains, ageless and alone, wealthy in everything except the one thing he assumed was inexhaustible — her return.
