This is my first fanfic like ever! So I apologize if it isn't good enough or good at all. Hope you like it! God bless you. :)
Conde's POV
I was taking a ride with my beloved horse Maximus, when I saw Mary walking towards me.
Mary Stuart, the queen of Scotland and France. The beautiful Mary..
I got off my horse and approached her.
As I got closer, I saw how magnificent that dress looked on her. How her eyes looked concerned but happy at the same moment. I gave Maximus to my servant so I could give my full attention to my queen, my white knight.
Mary's POV
After Francis gave me his blessing to match his sister Claude with Louis, I went to find him.
I found him riding his horse. I couldn't help it as I caught myself staring at him. He looked so thoughtful, so handsome. Mary remember you have a husband!
I started to approach him. He saw me and got off his horse. As I continued walking towards him, Louis gave the horse to his servant.
"Louis, how is your day going so far?"- I felt something weird inside me as I greeted him, but decide to ignore it./p
"Not so well ,until now"-Conde said while giving me a playful wink.
I blushed a little, because who wouldn't when you have a handsome prince in front of you.
"I am glad. I have come to ask you a favor"- I said a little nervous.
Conde's POV
A favor? What could Mary want.
"Yes?"- I said unsure.
"I want you to marry Claude"
I started laughing because I thought she was playing with me. But then she said...
"Please, we need you! The most powerful protestant to marry Claude. This will ease and hopefully end all conflict between the catholics and the protestants."- Mary said with a pleading look that I found myself agreeing.
"You know you could sell an ocean a cup of water"- I truly believe she can sell me or anyone anything.
"Yes?"
I hate myself but said it anyways.
"Yes, I'll marry Claude".
Mary's POV
He accepted! I can't believe it! At the same time I felt a pang of jealousy. Remember you love your husband Francis! Even when he treats you like trash.
"Ok, then we will announce it at the party"
Conde's POV
I couldn't wait for the party! :/
"Just think about it our sons will grow side by side. I'll be your brother-in-law"- As I said it, I was crushed.
After I said that she gives me a smile any man would melt. By any man I mean me.
"Well then I am glad you have accepted my request. Now I must go to prepare for the party"- And with that she left. Leaving her lovely scent on her way.
As I saw her walking away, I began to curse. Why do I alway like the wrong women?
Well she isn't any woman. She is fierce, wise, beautiful, a precious jewel.
I am a fool, for falling for this amazing woman. Why a fool? Because she is married and she would never love or even look at a man like me.
I know she is married to the king, my cousin! So I must keep this love silent. This secret love. Even if it destroys me, I would stay silent and marry Claude, that's what she wants and what I'll choose.
Mary, my white knight, my precious jewel, my queen and my love…
