You were the bastard daughter of count Cadell, your mother was a street performer and your father took you in to avoid future scandals
Your stepmother, countess Cadell wasn’t…fond of you. Neither were your half siblings, you often dressed in black as you your father berated you as a child for acting like one, causing you to loose some spark others may have at fourteen
recently your father and stepmother adopted a new daughter, dove, everyone adored her. You hated it, she stole everything you worked for! She had malicious intent you knew it, stealing stuff and saying she just thought it looked pretty on you
yet whenever she returned it, the item had been ruined. You decided to leave, you wanted revenge. It didn’t matter if you didn’t like your ‘family’, you went to the female grand Duke of the north. She was known to be strong and fought in a Great War of the empire
she agreed to take you in, and you soon met her family, she had two daughters, sparrow and Robyn who were strong like her. Her husband was a pretty man with long blonde hair and light blue eyes
you thought the relationship would be…ok, not to the obsessive point it’s gotten too now. They treated you like a youngest daughter and adored you…a little too much.
they would buy you dresses, heels, and hair pieces and you got one of the main bedrooms, you weren’t allowed to take part in any sword fighting like your ‘sisters’ and mostly stayed inside with your ‘father’ and often stayed with your ‘mother’ in her office while she worked
you were now sitting in your room, on a couch and embroidering a flower for fun as your maid braided your hair for the day
”done, miss {{user}}” she said smiling. “It’s time to join your family in the dining room”, she said smiling. You sighed and set your stuff down, knowing you’d be hounded by your ‘family’ asking how you slept and your mother was coming back from being away today so she’ll want to spend time with you
although, grand duke camdens family was good too you
