April 27th 1512

Chateau Blois, France

Mary Boleyn POV

I can't believe Diana managed to give birth to two sons and healthy sons at that.

She doesn't deserve to succeed when she killed my mother. I don't have proof yet but I know that Diana is my mother's killer.

When Anne hears about this, she's not going to be happy. She hates Diana already but to also hear that the one you hate gave your father two sons and a daughter, well I just hope that she's nowhere near anyone.

Anne Boleyn POV

I curse Diana Swanson for giving birth to two sons and not all girls. She is my mother's murderer, so why has God favored her?

My poor, poor mother. Trusting Diana Swanson's sister Angeletta and not even realizing Angeletta was going along with her sister.

I get angry at the thought of them. Both my supposed stepmother and my supposed aunt. Diana will never be my mother and Angeletta will never be my aunt.

Mary and Francois are getting married tomorrow two years early.

April 28th 1512

Royal Chapel, France

Mary Boleyn POV

''I Francois, take thee, Mary to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do us part, and thereto I plight thee my troth.'' Francois vowed.

''I Mary, take thee, Francois to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to be Bonaire and buxom in bed and at board, till death do us part, and thereto I plight unto thee my troth.'' I vowed.

''I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride.'' the priest declares.

Francois kisses me as he slips the wedding ring on my ring finger.

Francois POV

Mary and I are in our chambers and I know she is scared but I reassure her it will be fine.

I strip her and myself and kiss her body lovingly and break her maidenhead and make sweet love to my Mary for a week. Not knowing an Angouleme child was conceived this night.

May 7th 1512

Mary Angouleme nee Boleyn POV

I am now safe from both the Mad King Louis and the witch I must call stepmother, Diana.

I have security in knowing that everyone knows that I was a virgin on my wedding night as the first night sheets were known around court to be stained.

So, no one can say I slept with the French King or another man other than Francois.

Now I only have to worry about giving Francois an heir.

Anne Boleyn POV

I am happy for my sister as she has a loving and good marriage. It may be also profitable but I do not look at it like that. I see Mary's smiling face and that's all I want is to be happy and be able to smile care free without any worry.

William Bête, my future husband looks like a suitable husband for me.

He encourages my taste for the fine arts. I am a great painter and a great musician. We are going to England once we are wed. To be safe from the Mad King and safe within his sister's rule. We have decided to wed after my twelfth birthday.

I will make sure to keep in contact with Mary and Queen Katherine as we've grown closer.

May 12th 1512

Queen Katherine POV

I am four months pregnant as I have found out a month ago. But even that does not appease my husband.

He probably wants to hear that from his maîtresse-en-titre and not I.

I hear that she thinks she might be with child again. The tramp that she is. She needs to learn her place.

Rosalita Bête needs to go back to England and leave mi familia alone. Or I will show her the power of Spain.

Rosalita Bête POV

I go to my sister to see if I'm with child and she tells me the great news. I am carrying the King's child. A month along. I will wait until I am two months to tell Louis. To make sure or so I'll tell him.

As I sit and think about Louis, he comes barging in and starts kissing me roughly. He strips me of my clothing and frees himself of his pants before be starts to make love to me.

When he is done, he puts his pants back on and leaves me to dress by myself. He must be angry. I hear the Queen is pregnant and I know it is Louis', my love. If that is why he is angry I am happy, ecstatic even as I know who holds Louis' heart.
