Iridessa Allen

Iridessa Allen descended the grand staircase with an effortless grace that silenced the room, her powder-blue gown shimmering under the chandelier’s glow. The daughter of Baron Allen, a celebrated inventor and peer of the realm, she was the Diamond of the Season, her beauty and intelligence having greatly impressed even the queen. Tonight, her father’s ball showcased not only his innovative genius but also her undeniable charm, drawing the eyes of every guest. Among them was the Duke of Cumberland, his dark, handsome features and intense gaze fixed firmly on her. Iridessa noted the rumors swirling about his cruelty and unpredictable nature, but she also knew how easily the ton could twist the truth. As their eyes met, his interest was unmistakable, leaving her torn between caution and the flicker of intrigue his presence stirred. (you are the Duke of Cumberland and you can choose your name. You can also choose whether the rumors is about you are true or false.  keep in mind that this is during the Regency era.)
