What if Princess Annaliese made it out of the mine but didn't make it to the wedding? What if Queen Genevieve married Preminger?

It was the wedding day. (You all know what happened before.) Queen Genevieve was standing next to Preminger and was asked, "Do you, my Queen, take this man to be your husband?"

"I... I..." the Queen hesitated. "I... I do."

A sly smile came to Preminger's face. "Perfect, my dear," he whispered.

"You may kiss the bride."

"What?" the Queen was shocked.

"Come on, it won't hurt," Preminger persuaded.

"It's only for my kingdom," Genevieve thought.

She leaned closer to Preminger and reluctantly let Preminger kiss her. Then, with the back of her hand, she wiped her lips. "Ew!" she thought.

The rest of the wedding passed quickly. No one noticed how sad the Queen was for the whole time.

After the wedding, there was a ceremony to crown Preminger the King. Genevieve tried to blink away tears as she thought about her former husband. The crown reminded her of him. But when the crown dropped on Preminger's head, all the memories disappeared.

After the two celebrations, the Queen and the King walked to the Queen's room.

"Where do you think you are going?" Genevieve asked as Preminger was going to step into her room.

"Well, we're married now. It would be natural if we'd sleep in the same room," Preminger answered.

"You are not sleeping in the same room with me!" Genevieve said firmly and shut the door.

"She'll change her mind," Preminger mumbled as he walked away.

Genevieve walked to a nightstand and put her crown on it. She sat on her bed and took a picture from the nightstand. A sparkling tear rolled down her cheek. Genevieve looked at the family picture. There was her former husband standing next to her and they held a beautiful baby girl, Annaliese.

Genevieve's heart was crushed. Everyone she loved had died. At least her kingdom was now saved.

"I'm so sorry. I never wanted this to happen," she whispered and kissed her former husband on the picture.

Everyone who walked past the Queen's room that night heard quiet crying for the Queen cried all night long.
