A Queen's Ambition

I have always been the type of woman to work for everything I have ever earned. I have wished and wanted and worked for it all! But never in my life have I had to work for anything as hard as I have worked for the King's affection and love.

I am a very ambitious person and will stop at nothing to attain what I have set out to do! If I have to go to the gates of Hell and back, I shall! And one day I shall reach parity with Katherine of Aragon, and then I shall sore higher then her! I shall be the only women Henry ever looks at.

I shall be Queen of England! I know that I have Henry besotted with my beauty, and any stranger that came to court would know that our relationship is so palpable that Katherine may as well step down from her throne. She may as well hand over the crown on one knee to me, for she is no more.

All her confreres have come over to me; they all know that I have the winning hand in the constant battle for the King's affections. No matter what she does, who she calls, and what she claims, the result is the same. All of her work is made nugatory by my irreplaceable presence.

I may sound cacophony but I speak truth! Katherine of Aragon is no more! I, Anne Boleyn am the one and only love of Henry Tudor the 8th! Henry loves my beatific expressions, fiery passion, commanding wit and French ways.

I cannot wait for him to apprise Katherine that she is to be sent far away to a nunnery to die alone. Her world is already raging in inferno but when she dies I shall finally be happy and at peace! These thoughts may be treason and morbid, but the whole court knows that it is her or me.

And I am omniscient, I know she has hired spies to watch me and make sure that everything I do is reported to the King. I could laugh at this of course, but in reality I know that there are already those who oppose me, those waiting to strike me down as soon as I claim the throne. Plotting against me and saying they would never bow down to a stupid slut like me, saying I have depraved the king and bewitched him to love me!

Of course all of England knows that I do adjure Henry but in an enchanting way. Not all this nonsense that those fools come up with. I have not desecrated his mind as Cardinal Wolsey says I have. And when the time comes I shall extirpate Wolsey and all others that agree with him. They shall regret the day they ever crossed me! Anne Boleyn.

I will play my part in this masquerade of dancing, parties, and flirtation in a jocose manner but I will never forget that more then half this court wanted me to fail! And everyone who ever crossed me will regret it! Not even when I am dying and about to enter the portal into heaven will I forget!

For I am Anne Boleyn, Queen of England to be! They will see I shall show them all!

A/N: another Anne Boleyn story, this one takes place more when Anne is courting Henry. I really enjoy writing as her, because I myself am so much like her. Please R&R and you shall get my favor. Thanks again and R&R.
