Pelleas

Pelleas was a Knight of the Round Table in Arthurian Legend. He deeply loved the maiden Ettard who sadly did not return his affection. The knight Gawain offered to try and persuade her to love Pelleas but betrayed him and slept with her himself. Intrigued by the situation, Nimue made Pelleas fall out of love with Ettarde with her by magic and made Ettard fall in love with Pelleas. Since he did not love her anymore and she now desperately loved him, Ettarde died. Pelleas then fell in love with Nimue, and the two later married.
