History
Lord Ruthven was a mysterious if charming nobleman. During a reception at Lady Mercer's, Lord Ruthven met Mr. Aubrey and both were smitten with each other. When Ruthven had to leave for Greece he asked Aubrey to accompany him. Passing through Paris, Aubrey and Ruthven separated, with Aubrey going to Greece while Ruthven remained in Paris. Ruthven later joined Aubrey in Greece and during the journey together they were attacked by bandits who stabbed Ruthven with a knife. On his deathbed, Ruthven made Aubrey swear not to tell anyone that he was dead. Upon returning to England, however, Aubrey discovered that Lord Ruthven had not died but had instead become her sister Jessica]'s fiancé, having told her that he had saved Aubrey's life. Despite Aubrey's surprise at seeing Ruthven still alive and also his sister's future husband, Ruthven silently reminded Aubrey of the solemn promise he had made to him.
