Kidnapped By The Crazy Duke Novel

In a world at war, the protagonist finds herself as a supporting character in a classic captivity-abduction novel. Taking on the identity of "Diana Claire," she is abducted in the protagonist's stead, aiming to escape a hellish home life where she was treated coldly and abused, unlike the protagonist's sister. Her captor, the Duke, is a beautiful, educated madman. He visits her, gazing at her as if she were a prized piece of art, his eyes a complex mix of asceticism, decadence, sensuality, and flavor. Beneath his gentlemanly manners and elegant appearance lies a disturbing madness, creating an eerie and bizarre atmosphere. This man, seemingly insane, expresses a dangerous obsession, declaring, "I want to kill everyone except you, my Diana." The protagonist attempts to control this man possessed by a cruel demon, a man whose very essence has been defined by the word "madman."
