"The newly widowed Elizabeth (Woodville) was exceptionally vulnerable. Several of the trustees responsible for her jointure refused to hand over the manors that were meant to sustain her in her widowhood. Moreover, her brother-in-law, Edward Grey, had seized estates that her son Thomas should have inherited from his paternal grandfather, while her mother-in-law’s new young husband, Sir John Bourchier, had prevailed on Lady Ferrers to settle her principal properties on them jointly for life, ensuring that Thomas would have to wait far longer for this inheritance too. Rivers and Scales were pardoned in July 1461 and swiftly moved into the Yorkist establishment, which perhaps explains the success of the chancery suits Elizabeth launched to regain her jointure. Her son’s inheritance proved harder to recover. By 1463, Rivers was often in (Edward IV's) company and on his council, but Elizabeth needed someone with much stronger influence over the King. She turned to a distant kinsman, William, Lord Hastings, the King’s chamberlain. Hastings drove a very hard bargain for his aid but it was probably amid these negotiations that the King’s desire for Elizabeth was kindled."
-J.L. Laynesmith, "Elizabeth Woodville: the Knight's Widow", Later Plantagenet and Wars of the Roses Consorts: Power, Influence, and Dynasty

its kind of funny that sonic being some form of royalty is a concept thats used somewhat often in both official material and in fan content when it doesnt really fit his character all that well. imo it could only work if he was born into it and also doesnt really like it or want anything to do with it. he would never Choose that lifestyle

I highly recommend A Taste of Gold and Iron by Alexandra Rowland if you like:
Queer lit
Explicit mlm romance
Fantasy
Economics, intrigue, or justifiable paranoia
Beautifully, stupidly flawed characters that you kind of want to shake until they can see what's right in from of them, the fools
