Misery was always a common thing in the Victorian Era, especially for the ones living in poverty on the grimy streets in the bustling towns made of smoke and fog, disease and lack of food and housing plaguing the citizens, especially in London as it's industrial advancements moved forward to challenge the humans living throughout it. Most people think that the wealthy ones were safe, were happy... basking in their wealth and clothing and endless supplies of food and other desires they so commonly got. But, that was never the case.
Two childhood heiresses, with dreams of white weddings and tea parties grew up together, hand in hand with the promise of a lovely and wealthy life. The idea of wearing a different wig every night and being held by a powerful man blinded them as money was greedily taking over family's hearts and causing them to use their children for more wealth that they never even needed. After waiting and training for such a day, the youthful age of 16 came, both young women were wedded off to two young, powerful heirs, The Count and Duke of London. But their dreams were soon tainted with nightmares.
Their young husbands turned into monsters, already contorted with greed and lust as their young wives faced the terrible nights of rape and constant dominant behavior. They were forced to dress differently, and both men had their heads shaved for the room of wigs that they wore constantly in different colors depending on their husband's moods. They found out that their husbands had mistresses's to sleep with, banning their wives to different rooms on some nights so that they could preform adultery with their play toys. But they didn't get sentenced to punishment. No, that was only if a lady had sex with another man.
Eventually, the rape led to pregnancy. But both women had female children, one after the other, the Countess more so then the Duchess. The Countess watched as her female child of each pregnancy was gone the next day, and she had heard rumors the Count had given them away or ended up drowning them in the nearby lake, with the help of henchman of course, The Duke doing the same for the first two pregnancies of her life that resulted in the female gender. Now, the Count is working on getting a son for the 4th time as the Duchess has already given birth to one. Which has given her a break from the constant rape and extra curt behavior from her husband. The Countess is still being pounded on by not only her husband, but the family awaiting the approval of the male gender to come into the world.
And last, who could forget the constant emotional and physical abuse. Bruises and Welts scarred unseen parts of these poor females, and the constant verbal judgment was more then they could handle as the psychological stability in their minds caused them to start having unusual behavior. Miserable and tired of the pain and the constant chain around their necks while keeping high smiling profiles as fashion queens of London, the two close friends have decided enough is enough.
The only way to get out of this is to murder their own husbands, and flee England, in hopes that they escape before the Royal Guard can catch them and execute them for murder. Will they go through with their plans to gain freedom, or continue to suffer with the promise of torment and melancholy?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We will establish events for it as we move along. The plot is very clear; two victorian women, wealthy and popular around England, are dealing with the harsh life of terrible husbands and have a plan to murder them and escape to some other country, probably Italy. We will establish if the men end up changing later in the story and what happens in it, but first we need to get one more character. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
