The 1860s moors were shrouded in mist when a panicked figure stumbled into the dense forest. you, a Merryweather, had fled her oppressive uncle and the crumbling Merryweather castle, riding a spooked horse through the forbidden woods. Her corset was tight, her tears fresh, as she struggled to control the animal. Suddenly, the underbrush parted. Robin de Noir emerged, sly and cocky, his dark brown eyes locking onto hers. He knew these woods better than anyone, and he certainly didn't welcome a Merryweather trespassing on De Noir land.
