April 14th 1514

Chateau Blois, France

King Francois I POV

I am ecstatic as I learn Mary, my Venus is with child again. She may be a month along but I am happy nonetheless as it will be our child.

Arabella and the others may give me son after son and daughter after daughter but Mary is the Queen of my heart and her children with me will be at the top for the line of succession.

As it is in Louis' will, it is to be followed. Unless she has cheated on me and given me bastards instead of true royalty, then it will fall to my second wife, Arabella d'Orléans nee Naples.

But of course, as Mary was a virgin when I took her, she has never lain with another man.

If she does lay with another man, she will find herself a head shorter. She is mine and only mine.

She will learn the hard way if she ever cheats on me.

April 21st 1514

Queen Mary Boleyn POV

I worry as I see my husband give in to madness every day. I worry that one of my sister wives will try to replace me as Queen of Francois' heart.

I see Arabella looking at me with an evil look and I know she'll do anything to get rid of me and with Francois becoming mad with power, he might believe anything she tells him.

Please God, for Elizabeth, Alexander, and Anthony bring my loving husband back to me. I worry that I am on borrowed time if I do not give him another son. With the others three months along and I one month, I worry that he will favor the one who gives him sons from that pregnancy first and I just another wife.

May 1st 1514

Chateau Boleyn, France

Francois has moved me to a castle outside of court for my pregnancy. Or so he says. I'm not even two months along yet and he sends me away from court.

For what? To replace me as the top Queen and the Queen of his heart?

I will make him regret this. I was his first Queen and second wife as he was a widow when he married me. I gave him three beautiful children two of which are sons.

I summon our children from their residence as I am their mother and I teach Elizabeth all I know. (telling her to beware as her father is mad now).

Elizabeth has my blonde hair, her father's brown eyes (A/N Idk what color eyes Francois had) my pale skin and her father's lips. Other than that, she looks exactly like I did at her age. Father had shown me portraits of me when I was a babe.

I hope she has a better marriage than I. It is said that Louis betrothed my daughter to one of his sons. I hope not as I want her married to someone from somewhere else.

Mayhap I can get a betrothal from Germany and she shall be safe from Francois and France itself. Oh God please let Elizabeth marry for love and safety.

May 3rd 1514

Chateau Blois

Queen Arabella POV

My plan is working. I am becoming Queen of Francois' heart. Now all I need to do is sully Queen Mary's name and virtue and she shall die and her children declared bastards and my children shall be on the throne of France not hers.

Francois seems to be looking not for a Queen consort this time but a King consort and I shall help him.

I find a male named James Blount who's related to a Calais witch and so has magic of his own to make him carry a womb. He is also fourteen and has plenty of time to carry heirs for Francois.

Royal Chapel

Francois and James tie the knot and after that they aren't seen for two weeks as they are consummating their marriage. Of course, James is under a glamour and is known as Jasmine d'Orléans nee Blount.

May 17th 1514

Jasmine (James) Blount POV

As I am newlywed and I am pregnant as I know the spell to know exactly when you conceive and I used it on myself should I ever marry a man as I did.

I will do anything for Francois. Even kill one of his wives if he asks me of it.

I use a spell to permanently turn me and any other man under a glamour into a woman. They may look like the woman but they won't be her.

I lift the glamour I placed on myself to see that it's no longer a glamour. I am a woman with a womb that works like any other male that's under the glamour spell.

I am now truly Jasmine d'Orléans nee Blount, sister to Bessie Belle nee Blount.

Oh, if only my children could be on the throne. But I am Francois' ninth wife and to give birth in February of next year while the others are giving birth this year and they'll probably be sons while I'll probably give birth to daughters.

Francois POV

Arabella tries to show me evidence that Mary was unfaithful but I know she hasn't been as the guards to her room are loyal to me and only me. If she does cheat, she will die by my hand. I will poison her if that is what it will take.

I had moved her away so that the rumors would stop as she is with our children and guards who are loyal to me.

They would tell me if she was having an affair.

The rumors keep spreading and I cannot stop them all even though I wish I could.

I love Mary and always will. But if she is cheating on me how can I trust her words that Alexander and Anthony are mine or even the ones that she is carrying right now are mine?

Chateau Boleyn

Queen Mary Boleyn POV

I know I am in danger as I hear rumors of me committing adultery. I know I am not an adulteress but others think so.

I know I have to prove myself faithful. I hope Francois comes to realize I am faithful as I was in the beginning of our relationship as I have always been faithful.

''Mama why is papa mean to you?'' Elizabeth asks.

''He is under a ton of stress and so he may seem mean but he just gets mad as some people say something untrue to him and so to make sure everyone knows it is not true, he sent us here so they would stop spreading lies.''

''So, he still loves us?''

''Of course he does Elizabeth. You are his jewel and I am the Queen of his heart. He just wanted everyone to stop with the lies.''

''Okay mama.''

''Now go to your studies as we know you are very smart.''

''I'll see you later mama.''

''Je t'aime my darling daughter.''

''Je t'aime mama.''

Oh, Elizabeth you are too smart for your age. I wish you knew not that your father might replace me with Arabella.

God, let Elizabeth keep her innocence of how the world is. She need not know that I might die by her father's hand or Arabella's hand.

I pray that you will watch over her and keep her view of the world untainted until she is ready.
