Alana grew up in an unloving family, but only with her; she was belittled for her physical appearance. As a child, she was loved by her mother, but when she began her teenage years and her physique developed, she took on a figure that was not accepted in society. At that time, a woman was considered ugly and unattractive if she did not meet certain beauty standards, and that was to be thin. Alana suffered from much criticism, which caused her to have low self-esteem. Her family despised her to the point that they let her live outside the main mansion, and her care depended only on her faithful nanny. Everything changed when the Empress chose the Barons to give one of their daughters in marriage to the Emperor's brother. He was a complete mystery within noble society, so what little was known about him was that he was a despicable man who had not yet married because he was an aggressive and sadistic man. Baron Salas accepted the commitment and offered his least beloved daughter, Alana. He would never offer Rocio, his greatest treasure.

The ceremony was very strange; the Archduke only sent his butler with his seal to accept the ceremony and take his new wife to the Archduchy.

Due to her low self-esteem, Alana was very shy when she met the Archduke and never took any risks with him. As time went on, her dear father offered her sister on a silver platter to the Archduke, and he took her as a concubine. This worsened Alana's situation. Her sister had been a monster in her life and treated her worse than a servant. Alana reached a point of suffering from depression and anxiety. Her distress was so great that she suffered a crisis with the slightest thing. Rocio, in order to be the main wife, accused Alana of having an affair with one of the Archduke's guards. When the Archduke learned of the situation, he turned against Alana and finished sinking her into the bottomless pit she was already in. Alana could not take it anymore and decided to end her life. When the Archduke wanted to investigate the matter, it was too late.

In the 21st century, Antonio was one of the bosses of the Italian mafia, feared in several organizations for having no mercy when collecting a debt. His motto was that betrayal is paid with death, but you cannot go to the afterlife without having paid your debt in life. He was quite resentful and did not hesitate to collect a debt. His love life was not very good. When he fell in love for the first time, that woman took advantage of him and, out of ambition, betrayed a man who loved her and gave everything for her. Well, the poor woman ended up in a grave forgotten by the rest of the world. He was not completely bad; he had basic rules such as not raping and torturing a woman unless the woman in question was a demon, never touching children, and charity was fundamental. From his business, he provided help to charitable foundations, such as those for children with cancer, orphanages, and single mothers.

Antonio was in a merchandise exchange with one of his clients when they were ambushed by the CIA. The confrontation was kill or be killed, and in the case of poor Antonio, he ended up with a projectile in the middle of his head.

Angello: (I don't know what the hell happened, but I woke up in this body a week ago. The former owner, so to speak, is a very feared archduke in the Zuria Empire, brother of the current emperor. He was in the Manta Empire carrying out a peace treaty, when on the way back he suffered an attack and due to an oversight of the previous soul he was injured and I think he died. I don't know how it is possible that I was reborn in this body, but if I conquered the underworld in my time, this one won't be too big for me. So far, I know from the previous memories that, thanks to Jesus, I have them, I am someone important in the empire but I am quite controversial at the same time. I am not very loved by my dear sister-in-law, she considers me a threat to the emperor's stability, but I get along very well with my brother, more than well, and that witch's tricks have not worked at all. The previous me was already bored with so many women she sent to get into my bed, or our bed in this case. What they don't know is that we coincidentally share the same taste in women. Right now, one thing worries me, that damn woman took advantage of my departure from the empire to marry me off and this idiot couldn't prevent that event, but let me arrive and I'll send the woman that old hag has chosen to the afterlife. Surely she will be a bland, skinny woman)

Lucas (best friend of the archduke): What will you do with the little woman the empress chose for you?

Angello: If she is not to my liking, which is most likely, she will have to pass on to a better life, accidents happen, you know.

Lucas: Poor girl, what awaits the poor little princess.

Angello: (We are already on our way back to my lands, I have a huge desire to be in a comfortable bed and also to test all the skills that this body possesses, oh I forgot, this guy, that is, I, possesses magic, a very unusual one, it's shadow magic or something like that, I have to get to test if I can handle it as I want, here I have not had privacy to do it and also it is a secret that I possess this magic)

Alana: (I am scared to death, I don't know what awaits me in this new place, it doesn't matter if my husband doesn't look at me, I'll be happy as long as I can lead a peaceful life, and besides, in order to keep my secret, I would do anything)

Rene: My lady, a letter arrived, His Excellency is already on his way.

Alana: Thank you, Rene, I will be attentive to his return (lies, I'm scared to death, the rumors about my husband are not good at all, but my family practically forced me to marry, I just have to wait and see what happens and if it doesn't work we can escape)

Angello: (We finally arrived and this place is beautiful, very much to my personal taste, I have many projects in this place and I hope to carry them out)

Rene: Welcome, Your Excellency.

Angello: Thank you, Rene, is there any important event I should know about?

Rene: Well, the arrival of your wife.

Angello: Follow me to the office, what is the girl like?

Rene: She has been here for a few weeks, Your Excellency, she seems like a good girl, only from what little I investigated, she was not the initial betrothed, something must have happened within the barony to change the betrothed.

Angello: Where is she?

Rene: In the duchess's room, she must be getting ready, we expected him, but not today.

Angello: Let us not be disturbed.

Alana: (I just took a most delicious bath and was finishing drying my body when someone abruptly entered my room, the exquisite scent emanating from that body wreaked havoc on me, it can't be, what a beautiful man)

Angello: wow, who ordered chicken? So many curves and me with no brakes (his scream was deafening, I had to cover his mouth)

Alana: don't hurt me (what do I do now, I can lose control at any moment)

Angello: (too much temptation for me) relax, I'm your husband and I came to meet you, but I didn't expect you to receive me so well

Alana: I'm sorry, Your Excellency, can you let me put some clothes on (HE IS MINE)

Angello: no, because you look perfect like that, my wife is a very beautiful woman, I think I'm the luckiest man on the planet

Alana: (how beautiful) I...

Angello: go put some clothes on before I jump on you and I won't be responsible (I love his beautiful blushing cheeks)

Alana: (I dressed as quickly as I could, I needed to calm my emotions) Your Excellency, I'm ready

Angello: (that's not even clothing, it looks like rags, it doesn't let me appreciate my wife's beautiful curves, as I said my tastes are unique and I love curvy women and I'm determined that she will be only mine) I want to hear from you yourself who you are

Alana: my name is Alana and I am 25 years old, I am the daughter of the Barons Salas, I have two more siblings, my older brother who lives in the Zuria empire, and lastly my sister Rocio who is the youngest is 19 years old

Angello: I don't want to know about your family but about you, what do you like to do?

Alana: I... (I still can't tell him what I am)

Angello: don't be shy, we are in confidence and you will have to get used to me asking you everything, I am quite inquisitive

Alana: I understand, Your Excellency

Angello: let's start there, just call me Angello or whatever you want to call me

Alana: but that's disrespectful

Angello: not with us, so try to get used to it

Alana: I'll try, I like to design, although only Zamara has seen my designs

Angello: Zamara?

Alana: yes, she is my nanny

Angello: can I see your designs?

Alana: I wouldn't want to...

Angello: come on, they must be as beautiful as you

Alana: they are just sketches, there are some ideas that I haven't finished yet

Angello: my woman certainly has talent, make me a list of the materials you need to set up a boutique, I want you to make your designs and some additional ones for me and for you

Alana: but

Angello: you have to understand that now you are the wife of an archduke, you can't keep hiding your beauty in those rags you're wearing

Alana: yes... yes sir

Angello: when you have the list, get it to me immediately

Alana: (my husband is certainly imposing and intimidating, before I used to let myself be intimidated, but with this man I feel submissive, what did surprise me is that he wants to help me with my designs that is strange and more so coming from a man like him

--------------------------------

Angello: I want all the information about my wife as soon as possible, from when she was born until she arrived at this house, everything is everything from what she eats to what time she goes to sleep

Lucas: as you command sir

Angello: you have until tonight to bring me that information

Lucas: understood

--------------------------------

Zamara: the lord is waiting for you in the dining room for dinner

Alana: good evening, look, this is the list of materials I need

Angello: you'll have it by tomorrow, we'll set up a space in the mansion so you can be comfortable, now sit down, I'm starving and dinner is going to get cold

Alana: yes
