⧠// history //
The Suffern name for decades was a name that people learned to fear. Though never powerful enough to hold a position in the Royal Court, they were Lords which ruled over their land with fear and intimidation as their most powerful tool.
Edenâs father was especially horrid to those that lived on their land: demanding an unjust amount of food and fines for those poor vassals.Â
Eden, while she was a young girl, was completely oblivious to all of the wrong doings of her family. She was kept safe and boarded up in the walls of her familyâs castle.
When the young blonde reached her teenage years, it became clear that she would need to go into the community to meet a husband. At first, she was widely sought after by seemingly every eligible bachelor in the kingdom, but with that time away from the home came rumors of relationships not suitable for a young girl of her age ( or of any age for that matter ).Â
Most men were repulsed, wanting nothing to do with a âtaintedâ girl. But once King Leroux himself caught word of the little âforbidden appleâ of the kingdom, he sought her out to claim as his own. Using the blondeâs sexuality as a fetish and a tool of manipulation against her, he kept her as his dirty little secret, maintaining the regal and wholesome facade he put on for everyone else.
When it became clear that the King contracted the mysterious disease, he made the decision that Eden would now go to his son, Charlant, as his wife.Â

LEROUX, charlant: He is the husband to be and a rather awkward one at that. It is clear that neither want to be in the situation that they are in, but it seems that there really is no option. Eden plays the dutiful wife-to-be, poised and polite as ever, but she wishes for nothing more than to be free of the Kingâs clutches.
OPEN: An ally of some sort â a best friend from her old home, someone on the court that sympathizes with her, maybe even one of the women that was a past relationship to get her in this predicament with the king.Â
OPEN: An enemy â they donât know her personally, but they hated her family because they were living under the Sufferns. They may have even been the one to find out about Edenâs secret and release it to the public.
