Protag: Suitor is a lord or lady of repute from a neighboring kingdom or something.

Intro/Setting Warm-up:

There is nothing so discomfiting to a lord or lady as being told that one must find a suitable match or face disinheritance, but that's exactly the dilemma you find yourself in. Luckily for you, lord or lady, you have a sizeable dowry or plot of land along with your title to back up your good name, so you ought to have your pick in the neighboring kingdom. Will you try to strike an alliance by wooing the widowed ruler, or threaten to the stability of a strong marriage with adultery? Or perhaps you will seek someone younger and free such as yourself. Or maybe you will throw caution to the wind by seeking frivolity with someone of a lesser station—those servant girls and knights are all quite fetching. The choice is up to you!
