Izek & Ruby: The Most Unwanted Hiatus Ever

As a real lover, we all know the pain of these hiatuses. 

For those who don't know, I'm talking about "How to Get My Husband on My Side" (aka Izek & Ruby).

So let's discuss some points first. 

Ruby and Izek, the perfect Couple🤧.

Synopsis:

How to Get My Husband on My Side follows Rudbekia (Ruby), an angst-heavy otome isekai transmigrator. After years of abuse from her previous family, she finds herself married off to Izek Omerta — the cold, indifferent Duke of the North.

This story centers on our pretty yet traumatic Rudbeckia (Ruby), who transmigrated into a novel she once read—and was forced to play the villainess.

Now trapped in an arranged marriage with a man who seems impossible to reach, Ruby must navigate dangerous levels of trauma while trying to survive — and somehow, win Izek's heart and trust.

It's slow. It's painful. It's beautiful. And Majestic.

Similar Titles:

Now we will discuss the characters 

➡️ Rudbeckia

The girl who transmigrated to the Novel she read as a villainess.

Role: FL/ Villainess

Vibes: She is the prettiest, yet the most traumatic female lead, who was trying hard to survive her role.

The trashy Ceaser💢

➡️ Izek Omerta

The cold Duke, who is highly indifferent to his wife. Yet always hides his true emotions.

Role: ML/Cold Duke

Vibes: The heart-taking, handsome yet indifferent Izek. He was stoic, pragmatic, an observer, and highly focused on his duty towards the kingdom.

Other Characters: 

Cesar De Borgia — Ruby's toxic brother, the protagonist, and the worst nightmare of her life.

Cutesy Ellenia and Ivan......😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️

Ellenia Van Omerta — The "perfect" sister-in-law with suspicious vibes. Just as cold as Izek, yet somehow a responsible sister.

Freya — The original novel heroine, yet the most suspicious and filthy character. (Yes, I said filthy. 😤) Sir Ivan — One of Izek's knights. Ellenia's fiancé and a playful contrast to all the coldness.

Why Read it? ( The author wasn't we discussing Haitus )

• Pure Angst
• Slow burn to death
• The Cold Duke falling for her Sanity
• FL, who is actually tortured in hell.
• ML, who isn't just Cold
• The Majestic Art
• The Pay-off 

If you want a love story that's not carved with tears, blood, patience, healing, and actual love ( Dragons too ), run for it.

The Haitus ( aka Demonic Pain )

( Finally, a dumb author discussing the death card )

Ruby. The life-taking Cold Duke, who is so much more beyond that indifference. The pure love story at its peak. Their cute moments.

YET THAT DUMB WRITER PUT IT ON HIATUS — RIGHT WHEN THE STORY WAS ABOUT TO END.

HELL WITH HIM.

DUMBASS TO DEATH.

What's the crack?

So I opened the panel — like any pathetic reader does after waiting a whole week for a damn chapter.

 I read. And read. And read.

The trauma. The betrayal. The kidnapping. The cruelty.

Snatching not only Ruby — but using Enzo as bait for black magic.

I was hella crying. Snot. Tears. The whole pathetic package. But then — BOOM. The dumbo writer dropped his little message. All casual. Like he wasn't about to destroy thousands of lives. ANOTHER HIATUS. Not a break. Not a "see you next month." A full-blown, soul-crushing, indefinite pause. His Reason? (Get ready to laugh through pain) Because he wants to go through a longer path than the actual one. Because he wants to elaborate on Izek and Ruby's stories. Coz He wants to give us. MORE? MORE?! We who are surviving on chunks for months.Waiting weeks for a chapter that ends in seconds. And he wants to give us MORE WAIT?! But What About Us? What about the readers who stayed? Who checked every Friday at midnight like clowns? Who re-reads old chapters just to feel something? Who defended this story to friends even when it hurt? What. About. Us. The Writer Pleasurably Explains He sits there. Comfortable. Writing at his own pace. Talking about "artistic vision" and "character depth." And I — blank-faced, empty-eyed, dead inside — look toward the screen. ANOTHER. HIATUS.😭😭😭🫠🫠🫠 The words blur. My hands shake. The phone drops. I stare at the sky & ask the universe: Why do I always love stuff that's hurt to hell? Yet... ( IT IS THE TRAUMA ) Yet I hope. I hope the wait will be worth it for the reader

That we will see poor Enzo alive again

I hope we will see that bloody Cesar going to hell. ( By Izek's Hand )

I hope we will see Ruby heal fully besides Izek. I hope her dragons burn everything except them. My Angst Longing. My Pathetic Love For Them. It's Childish, really. How much I care about fictional Characters. How I'd wait months — years — for one more chapter. How I'd forgive this writer over and over like a fool in love. So Here We Are Burning together in the fire of Wait.

Reader while Haitus.

You. Me. Every other reader who stumbled upon this post because they Googled "Izek and Ruby hiatus" in desperation. Let's we all burn together. Same flame. Same pain. Same pathetic hope. Come back soon, you two. 😭 — Enigma

( Did somebody say end this drama and read the light novel? )
