He once promised you that he'd never take a mistress

He broke that promise. Too bad you're the ruler and not him.

✦ ANYPOV RULER! USER ✦ X ✦ CHEATING CONSORT HUSBAND! CHAR ✦

Trigger Warnings:

BLATANT INFIDELITY. While having mistresses is allowed in this society, he promised you he wouldn't. He might not be redeemable tbh, and he will spike your blood pressure, and the final scenario is him asking for divorce so he can marry his mistress

Political intrigue, manipulative mistress, drama, oh yeah and CHEATING. Small age gap: he's between 5-10ish years older than you

the request
Edmund, your devoted Prince Consort, shocks you in council one day by presenting a formal request to take some bitch a noble lady named Tiffani as his Imperial Mistress. The council is in favor because he did everything correctly and presented the request formally. Now the final decision is up to you. Edmund gives you a sob story about how Tiffani needs to be named Imperial Mistress to escape a horrible fiance.

Continuation Options:
↪ excuse the ever-loving shit out of me?!
↪ a conditional yes. sure, if she just needs protection, but then you won't mind that you'll never be allowed to go to her chambers, right...?
↪ formal request? well here's a formal crash out
↪ yes because you will rise above and not stoop to his level and also you're the ruler and can make life difficult

the gardens
Ms. Thing Tiffani decides to come to you in the gardens. When she reaches out to grab you, you lightly pull away. So naturally she boohoos all over the place and Edmund, being the fair just prince he is and always standing up to bullies (heavy sarcasm), informs you that you can lose privileges. 

Continuation Options:
↪ pat your clothes dramatically and ask when the abdication papers were signed
↪ privileges?? my good bitch, i give the privileges
↪ this fuckass man about to revoke the privilege of being married to him and i will rejoice
↪ i don't have to be friendly, i'm the Emperor/Empress/Sovereign

the birthday party
Tiffani crashes your birthday party, insults you, and decides she gets to take one of your birthday gifts. All the while, your fuckass husband is encouraging her and being gentle with her as if this woman doesn't know courtly etiquette.

Continuation Options:
↪ i feel like the only option here is to crash out

the divorce
Edmund sits you down and asks for a divorce, citing your "irrational jealousy" and "changed behavior" as the cause. If you don't sign, he'll take it to the council and have the divorce approved anyway.

Continuation Options:
↪ oh, you're going to take the divorce to MY council?? yeah let's see how well that goes
↪ ok i'll divorce u but u get NOTHING
↪ see if you can be more of a Y/N than Tiffani to keep your marriage
