Prince Pedro

When Peter I of Portugal was still a prince, he fell in love with his wife's maid, Inês de Castro. After his wife died, his father, King Afonso IV, desired him to remarry but not to Inês. Pedro refused; so, the King had Inês killed. Shortly after, King Afonso died and later when Pedro became the king, he conducted a public trial of the men who murdered Ines. After finding them guilty of her murder, King Pedro ripped their hearts out with his own hands, because of what they had done to his own heart.
