00:00:08My name is Alexander Ashbourne, and I am a man.
00:00:19And today, I'm marrying the most powerful and the most ruthless man in this kingdom.
00:00:32Duke Cassian.
00:00:37I need to find a way to be his wife, while hiding what I really am.
00:00:47No, no, have you both lost your minds?
00:00:57This is never gonna work.
00:00:58Your sister ran, last night, with a servant.
00:01:02The Duke's escort arrives within the hour.
00:01:04If there's no bride, this is breach of contract.
00:01:07The crown pulls its protection.
00:01:08Our lands get carved up.
00:01:10Your sister will hang for it.
00:01:11Your mother and I will rot in debtor's prison.
00:01:14We'll find her.
00:01:16The moment we do, we'll swap you back.
00:01:18I promise.
00:01:19He will find out.
00:01:20He won't.
00:01:21You and Alexandra are identical.
00:01:23All he's ever seen is one old portrait.
00:01:25He won't know the difference.
00:01:31What if he demands to be intimate?
00:01:34What if he demands to be intimate?
00:01:50He knows.
00:01:52He knows.
00:01:53He knows.
00:02:05My lady.
00:02:13So far, so good.
00:02:14As long as Alexandra comes back, I just have to hold on until she comes back.
00:02:22You may now kiss the bride.
00:02:45The vows have been spoken.
00:02:48The church has blessed it.
00:02:49The guests are gone.
00:02:51The servants dismissed.
00:02:54There are certain duties expected of a wife on a night like this.
00:03:05Shall we begin?
00:03:11Shall we begin?
00:03:21Then start by helping me change.
00:03:26Well?
00:03:42Gloves off.
00:03:53These are not a woman's hands.
00:03:55He sees it.
00:03:56He has to see it.
00:03:58Will he?
00:04:00See?
00:04:01Easier.
00:04:23I'll go and bathe.
00:04:25Need a maid to help you change?
00:04:27No.
00:04:28I mean, no.
00:04:29I'll manage myself.
00:04:32Hmm.
00:04:42Mother told me what to say.
00:04:44It's my time of the month.
00:04:45I'm unwell.
00:04:46That's all.
00:04:47It'll be fine.
00:04:48It'll be fine.
00:04:49He won't force me.
00:05:04I...
00:05:05I...
00:05:06I...
00:05:07That unwilling?
00:05:09No, I'm not.
00:05:10I just say...
00:05:21Willing, then?
00:05:22Willing, then?
00:05:38If you're not ready, I won't force you.
00:05:42But tonight we share this room, or people will talk.
00:05:47From tomorrow, you'll have your own chambers.
00:05:52Thank God.
00:05:54Thank God.
00:05:57Thank God.
00:06:01Thank God.
00:06:06Thank God.
00:06:18Thank God.
00:06:22Thank God.
00:06:35No! Wait! Wait! Stop!
00:06:52You are a man?
00:07:07No! No, no, no!
00:07:10No!
00:07:12No!
00:07:12No!

00:08:26No!
00:08:29No!
00:08:31No!
00:08:36I heard you refuse to let the maid help.
00:08:39I'm not used to... I can manage.
00:08:45Can you?
00:08:46You look like you're struggling.
00:08:51Breathe in.
00:09:14Still managing?
00:09:40Breakfast is ready.
00:10:02Alexandra?
00:10:09Alexandra?
00:10:15Alexandra?
00:10:18I... Yes?
00:10:20Not used to the name?
00:10:25I was just... thinking...
00:10:30What does your family call you? I'll use that.
00:10:35Alex. Alex would be fine.
00:10:40Sure.
00:10:44Alex.
00:11:10I can't take it off. Someone might come in. I can't.
00:11:15I can't take it off.
00:11:56From today, no one enters your chambers
00:11:59without your sons.
00:12:03He's letting me sleep in peace?
00:12:05But why would he...
00:12:16The Duke, he's not like the rumors.
00:12:19He's not cruel.
00:12:22If anything, he's...
00:12:24gentle.
00:12:31What am I thinking?
00:12:40Don't let him get in your head.
00:12:41Don't let your guard down.
00:12:42Don't let your guard down.
00:12:44Remember why you're here.
00:12:47Remember who you are.
00:13:02What... what happened to him?
00:13:03Duke Valmont.
00:13:04Him again.
00:13:05He kept his grace's cup full all night, on purpose.
00:13:10In that court, one drunken word can cost him his title.
00:13:13Everything he's built, the man is hunting him.
00:13:17Alex.
00:13:18Alex.
00:13:20His world.

00:19:11I'm still me.
00:19:19Thanks, boy.
00:19:23Who's there?
00:19:30That face.
00:19:32You're...
00:19:33What's going on here?
00:19:37Your Grace, I caught a horse thief.
00:19:54It's fine.
00:19:56It's fine.
00:19:57It's too dark.
00:19:58He can't see me clearly.
00:20:00He won't recognize me.
00:20:01Just a stable boy who wanted a ride.
00:20:04Let him be.
00:20:09If you ever feel like riding at night,
00:20:13the stables are open to you.
00:20:16Yes, Your Grace.
00:20:18Yes, Your Grace.
00:20:28Tell us, my dear.
00:20:30Is His Grace as frightening in private as they say?
00:20:34He is very kind to me.
00:20:45Oh, my.
00:20:47Didn't the Ashburns sell off their southern vineyards these past two years?
00:20:50And yet, milady, what a fine gown you're wearing.
00:20:54Thanks to the Crown's Grace, my family is quite well.
00:21:16Thank you so much, my lady.
00:21:20How strong you are, milady.
00:21:23Unexpectedly so.
00:21:27All right, ladies.
00:21:29I'm stealing my love for a dance.
00:21:31Excuse us.
00:21:32Oh, this is...
00:21:59You're not good at this.
00:22:03Sorry, I'm not used to the lab...
00:22:05This.
00:22:07Then tell me,
00:22:08how would you dance
00:22:11if you were a man?
00:22:17How would you dance
00:22:19if you were a man?
00:22:21Shh.
00:22:29You lead.
00:22:36This is...
00:22:37Everyone's watching.
00:22:40Forget them.
00:22:42You only need to look at me.
00:23:06Tell me.
00:23:08How would you hold someone?
00:23:13If you were a man.
00:23:15How would you kiss?
00:23:19If you were a man.
00:23:31How would you love a lover?
00:23:37If you were a man.
00:23:52If you were a man.
00:23:55Have you ever danced like that
00:23:57with anyone else?
00:23:59No.
00:24:01Never.
00:24:17We're still outside.
00:24:23Faster.
00:24:24Get us home now.
00:24:26Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:24:29What?
00:24:43Oh.
00:24:49No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:14No, no, no, no.
00:25:45No, no, no, no.
00:25:54No, no, no, no, no.
00:26:17No, no, no, no.
00:26:23No, no, no, no.
00:26:26No, no, no, no.
00:26:41Why won't you let me look at you?
00:26:44I can't.
00:26:47You can.
00:26:48Whatever I see, I don't care.
00:26:51Do you hear me?
00:26:52I don't care.
00:26:56I do.
00:27:00Will you ever be ready?
00:27:06All right.
00:27:12I won't look.
00:27:15Good night.
00:27:17Good night.
00:27:23Good night.
00:27:25Good night.
00:27:42Yeah.
00:28:08You're a man.
00:28:11You're a man.
00:28:13You're not her.
00:28:15You're not her.
00:28:16You're not her.
00:28:17You're not her.
00:28:32You can't love him.
00:29:00Take a look.
00:29:03Rebels took the pass last week.
00:29:05300, maybe more.
00:29:07My captain wants to march in and crush them before the snows close the mountain.
00:29:10This is not my place to indulge me.
00:29:13I want your read on it.
00:29:17A frontal assault is the worst option.
00:29:19They hold the high ground.
00:29:20You'd lose 300 to their 50.
00:29:22But they have 300 mouths, and those hills can't feed them.
00:29:25Send 20 men at night over the shepherd's paths and take the mill bridge.
00:29:29Hold it, and they either starve up there or come down to fight on your ground.
00:29:32They lose either way.
00:29:33And the villagers know every path in those hills.
00:29:35Those are my father's people.
00:29:36By marriage, yours now.
00:29:49Thank you, my love.
00:29:51Very helpful indeed.
00:29:52From now on, my study door is open to you.
00:29:55Any time.
00:29:55Any counsel.
00:29:57Not as the Duke's wife.
00:29:58As yourself.
00:30:09The way she carries herself, the family, that gown.
00:30:13And she's a strange one, that duchess.
00:30:15Strong as a...
00:30:15You should have seen it.
00:30:17Veins.
00:30:18Sinyum.
00:30:19Like a man's.
00:30:21What did you say?
00:30:26Ha.
00:30:27So it might be true after all.
00:30:30What are you talking about?
00:30:32A month ago, one of my men swear he saw the Ashburn girl at the coaching inn in Melloway.
00:30:37I believed he must have been mistaken.
00:30:40Unless...
00:30:42The Ashbergs have twins.
00:30:44A boy and a girl.
00:30:47Identical.
00:30:50If my man truly saw the daughter, then who walked down that aisle?
00:30:55The duchess sitting in his house right now is the brother.
00:31:02The man.
00:31:08That's...
00:31:08That's insane.
00:31:09It's absurd.
00:31:11Is it?
00:31:22A letter from His Majesty.
00:31:24I ride for the pass at dawn.
00:31:26I'll lead them myself.
00:31:30Is it dangerous?
00:31:41Will you worry about me?
00:31:45Will you pray for me?
00:31:49I will.
00:31:54Then I'll come back safe.
00:31:55That's a promise.
00:32:20Stay away.
00:32:22Please.
00:32:23Stay away.
00:32:24I leave at dawn.
00:32:33I don't know for how long.
00:32:35It'll be a long time without you.
00:32:38My love.
00:32:39My love.
00:33:02I could just take you right now.
00:33:04No.
00:33:19No.
00:33:20I don't know.
00:33:31I don't know.
00:33:43When can I finally have you?
00:33:51I hold myself back every second of every day.
00:33:55You are so close, I can feel your warmth, and I cannot have you.
00:34:01It is a sweet kind of hell, and you, are you burning in it too?
00:34:29Wait for me my love, I wish I could go with you, you can, if you were a man, if
00:34:48only as long
00:34:50as you were a man, are you?
00:35:07Why?
00:35:10Why?
00:35:14Why?
00:35:20Why?
00:35:29I'm not.
00:35:37Take care of the house, and of yourself.
00:35:40I'm not.
00:35:42I'm not.
00:35:50I'm not.
00:36:15I'm not.
00:36:17I'm not.
00:36:18I'm not.
00:36:20I'm not.
00:36:23I'm not.
00:36:24I'm not.
00:36:41I'm not.
00:36:44I'm not.
00:36:45I'm not.
00:36:51I'm not.
00:37:00I'm not.
00:37:03I'm not.
00:37:05I'm not.
00:37:07I'm not.
00:37:07I'm not.
00:37:32I'm not.
00:37:33I'm not.
00:37:42I'm not.
00:37:54I'm not.
00:37:55I'm not.
00:37:56I'm not.
00:38:16I'm not.
00:38:19I'm not.
00:38:20I'm not.
00:38:47I'm not.
00:38:47My dear, are you all right?
00:38:49The tea was scolding.
00:38:50Are you hurt?
00:38:51Let me come in and help you.
00:38:52My lady is not to be disturbed.
00:38:55Nonsense, I insist.
00:39:16How may I help you?
00:39:24Yes.
00:39:29My love, the mill bridge held, exactly as you said.
00:39:34Twenty men, no cannon.
00:39:37The camp is restless tonight.
00:39:39The men are singing by the fire, badly.
00:39:43They say a soldier should keep his mind on the road.
00:39:46Mine keeps sneaking home.
00:39:49I have faced cannon, and colder things than cannon, and never once been afraid.
00:39:54What frightens me now is this.
00:39:57I have something I cannot bear to lose.
00:40:00Sleep well.
00:40:01Expect me before the month is out.
00:40:03I will ride day and night.
00:40:05Wait for me.
00:40:07Yours, entirely, stubbornly, yours, Cassian.
00:40:13I know, we can never truly be husband and wife.
00:40:17But I'm greedy for this tenderness.
00:40:21This misplaced love that was never meant for me.
00:40:27I wish my sister would come home later.
00:40:29Or, I even wish she would never...
00:40:32I know, my sister would never be husband and wife.
00:40:38I know, I don't believe it.
00:40:38By the end, the life.
00:40:42But you, she's suddenly where the girl is coming from me.
00:40:46I, I, I...
00:40:52Before you, I, I...
00:40:59Alright.
00:41:02Alex! Alex! I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
00:41:17Your lover, where is he?
00:41:21They have him, father and mother.
00:41:25If I didn't come back, if I refused to take your place, they were going to kill him.
00:41:32But I didn't know. Alex, I swear I didn't know. I never thought they would send you to him in
00:41:36my place.
00:41:38All this time, you must have been so frightened. You must have suffered so much.
00:41:46Did he hurt you?
00:41:52Did he torture you?
00:42:01You lead.
00:42:06No, he didn't. The rumors are wrong. He isn't cruel.
00:42:10He... he's kind.
00:42:29You and he... you'll be happy.
00:42:40He isn't the man I love.
00:42:42So what happiness is there for me?
00:42:48Promise me, you'll be with the person you truly love.
00:42:52At least one of us has to be happy.
00:43:03Take care, Alex.
00:43:06You too, sister.
00:43:16This is right.
00:43:17I'm just putting everything back where it belongs.
00:43:21I didn't lose anything.
00:43:23None of it was ever mine anyway.
00:43:40Your gracious is in quite a hurry. Missing someone at home.
00:43:45More than you can imagine.
00:43:51Full speed. We ride home.
00:44:00I'm going back to my lover.
00:44:14You leave tonight. Stay out of sight.
00:44:17If the Duke sees through her, at least you will live.
00:44:23Someone has to carry on the family name.
00:44:25If everything goes well, you can still come home.
00:44:36Please, let her fool him.

00:51:07Alex, listen.
00:51:10Alex!
00:51:11Alex!
00:51:13He found out! He found out! He found out!
00:51:16Where is she? What did he do to her?
00:51:18What about my parents? Is it over? Is everything over?
00:51:22Alex!
00:51:31Alex!
00:51:33Did he find out? Does he know?
00:51:35Alex.

00:51:39Alex.
00:51:39Did he lock you up? Tell me I-
00:51:40Alex!
00:51:41Shh!
00:51:47He knew.
00:51:52He knew all along.
00:51:57What?
00:51:59What?
00:51:59How did he know?
00:52:03What?
00:52:05How did he know?
00:52:06How did he know?
00:52:06How did he know?
00:52:10How did he know?
00:52:13How did he know?
00:52:17He loved him.
00:52:22Good, he loved him.
00:52:26It, you knew.
00:52:27all along? Yes. Since when? From before you ever walked down that aisle.
00:53:06These tenants take and take. All they ever do is ask for more. Exactly. Always asking for
00:53:13more. With respect, Lord Mercer, they are the reason your table is full. You call them mouths
00:53:20to feed. I call them the people who feed you. Who's that? The Ashbury Twins, Your Grace.
00:53:29The young lady is Alexandra. The one arguing with Lord Mercer is her brother, Alexander.
00:53:38Alexander, that was the first time I saw you, and I never forgot. When I learned the crown
00:53:47had promised me your sister, I was glad that I let the exchange spread. It's cruel that
00:53:54I was ruthless. Unpredictable. I learned your sister loves someone else. I gave her a carriage.
00:54:02I gave her a way out. Then I waited. I knew your parents' debts. I knew their fear. I knew
00:54:15that in their desperation, they would send you to me. You knew I was a man. You knew
00:54:25all along. You made me wear women's clothes. Made me pretend to be a woman. Made me bow
00:54:31and obey in front of you. I was terrified every day. Terrified of being found. Terrified of
00:54:36being touched. Terrified of saying one wrong word. And you watched all of it. Did you enjoy
00:54:41watching me live in fear? Was I entertaining you, Your Grace?
00:54:55No. Never. I never saw you as a woman. Not for one second. Then why? Because there was
00:55:04no honest road to you. A duke could not ask for the son of Ashburg. The crown offered
00:55:13me your sister, so I built a road to you out of lies. I wanted you to love me. I
00:55:19never
00:55:19wanted to hurt you. I thought if I could bring you into my home, if I could keep you beside
00:55:24me long enough, you might know me. You might choose me. I thought if you stood beside me as
00:55:29my wife. I am not your wife. When have I ever called you my wife? My love, my love, my
00:55:36love. I'm sorry, Alex. I'm sorry. I waited for you to put down the lock yourself, to tell
00:55:49me who you are. I thought if you chose to say it, then no one could ever take that choice
00:55:54from you again. I know, I know. But waiting was not innocence. I let you suffer because
00:56:02I was afraid. Afraid that if I spoke your name, you would run. Afraid that if I tore away your
00:56:07disguise, you would never forgive me. I was wrong. I hurt you. I'm sorry. Alex?
00:56:20Do you truly not love me? I hate you. I hate myself too. I hate that...
00:56:45I love you. We're in a carriage. You're right. I have waited years already. I can wait
00:57:12until we are home. I want you in our wedding bed.
00:57:41I love you. That doesn't mean I've forgiven you. I love you. That doesn't mean I've forgiven
00:57:47you. That's all right. Hate me. Loathe me. Despise me.
00:58:23Then, fall in love with me all over again.
00:58:40Then, fall in love with me all over again.
00:58:50What happens now? Alexandra and her lover are safe. I gave them money, new names and passage
00:58:56to another country. She can live with the man she loves. To the world, the Duchess fell ill
00:59:03and died. There will be a funeral. Then, what about me? Stay as my advisor. A real advisor,
00:59:20not hidden in my study, not under anyone else's name. You will attend councils, read the maps,
00:59:26speak on war and on the people's affairs. You will be yourself. You will use your mind.
00:59:38Your grace, his majesty is concerned. You have no child, no heir. Now that the Duchess has died
00:59:44of illness for the future of the Duchy, you must remarry as soon as possible.
00:59:55My wife has barely been laid to rest. I am still in mourning. Grief is a luxury, your grace. Duty
01:00:01is not. A duckety without an heir is a problem for the crown. My sword secured the crown's border.
01:00:11My men, hold the mountain pass. If his majesty wishes my loyalty to remain steady, he will keep his hand
01:00:20out of my bedchamber. That sounds dangerously close to treason. Then let him hear it as a warning.
01:00:27Any further interference in my marriage will be treated as an attempt to weaken the border.
01:00:31Tell his majesty to choose his next words carefully. Show his majesty's man out.
01:00:47You hurt. No one will ever stand between us again. You are the only lover I will ever have.
01:01:07You got letters? Alexandra wrote.
01:01:18She's happy. Truly happy. And she's with child. Then write back.
01:01:26Ask her if her child might be interested in inheriting a douchy.
01:01:31You are not serious. The crown wants an heir. Well, I'll give them one.
01:01:37Besides, your sister's child carries your blood. As far as my heart is concerned, that makes the child of ours.
01:01:48From that day on, the Duke was never seen without his closest advisor.
01:01:55They say the advisor rides like the wind, argues like fire, and looks exactly like the Duke's late wife.
01:02:05No.
01:02:05No.
01:02:07After her αλλάanges in his Cancer55-557-153-563-221!
