Disclaimer: I do not own Reign
Sorry I had an uploading problem but, I finally got the story up.
I am a Queen
My life is dedicated to my Kingdom
I have always put her above all else
Even my heart
When I saw him everything changed
He was unlike every other guy
He was not a King, an Heir or of Noble birth
He was only but, a Bastard child
Of no worth to anyone
I found him different from other men
But, I was meant to marry someone else
His brother
I tricked myself into believing I loved Francis
(I never really did)
It was always him
He could love me and put me above all else
Francis had his Kingdom to think of
When I was given the chance to marry him I took it
He believed I didn't love him
But, I always did
He was given the chance to be the Heir to France
He never wanted that
Only my heart
(Though I didn't know if i could ever fully give it to him)
When Francis was declared safe for me to wed and I was given the choice between the two
I picked Francis over him
Only because Francis was the safe choice
I am a Queen so I must put my country first
Even if it means breaking my own heart
He promises me everything and I know he would give me just that
Francis promises me nothing that is true
Every single one is empty and meaningless
So I will wait for Bash but, I could never ask Bash to wait for me Mary Queen of Scots
I am a Queen and I have others to think of
Matters of the heart do not apply to Royalty
We marry not for love but, for the good of others
That is why I do not say I love him
I want him to move on and not fight for me
I chose Francis for my Country
I wish I could chose Bash out of love
Now more than ever I wish that I Mary Queen of Scots was just a girl and the Kings Bastard son was just a boy
Love and Power live with each other but, rarely both are ever found together
So I marry Francis for Power and I tell Bash I don't Love him because Love and Power never really mix and I Love Bash
Thanks for reading. R&R
