An German Bride
Mere days after the celebrations of her fifteenth birthday, Anna and her youngest sister Amalia along with certain ladies-in-waiting were gossiping over glasses of wine that servants had brought to them. When suddenly a page of their father's announced to them "His Grace the Duke of Cleves wishes to speak with Lady Anna in his Privy Chambers at once"
Anna nods at her father's page standing up from her place beside Amalia on the couch, she plainly states "Sister, I shall inform you of my discussion with father when I return" and leaves her apartments to her father's Privy Chambers.

After the long walk from her own apartments, Anna is quickly announced by the page that accompany her there. She gracefully curtseys to her father to only say "Father" as the Duke gestures for her to sit down on the chair before him.
The Duke looks at carefully at his beautiful red-haired daughter to say joyfully "Daughter, I have finalize your betrothment to His Highness Prince Henry Tudor the Prince of Wales" knowing that she will be the future Queen Consort of England while his eldest daughter was already the Electress Consort of Saxony.
Taking a few seconds to somewhat process the news, Anna looks at her father to only ask "When shall I leave for England?" knowing that it must be before her sister's birthday celebrations.
"Next spring you shall travel to England with selected members of your household" says the Duke knowing that he will have more time to spend with his daughter as he pauses for a moment before adding "As the His Majesty the King of England along with his advisors and my own decided that it shall be safer to travel without the threat of the winter weather to assure your safe arrival"
Anna looks at her father happily with the knowledge that is at least able to spend one more birthday with Amalia and Yule celebrations with her family. Then she asks suddenly "Will the King change my name to be more English?" knowing that the current English Queen's name was changed from Catalina to Catherine.
"It was decided that your official title shall be Her Highness Princess Anne of Cleves the Princess of Wales" says the Duke knowing that her days where numbered with her only being his daughter and not someone's wife before adding to the news "Amalia shall travel with you and your household to England"
Anna seems shock to know that her sister and best friend will be by her side as she becomes a member of the royal family as the Princess of Wales. She asks the Duke "Father, how long shall Amalia be able to spend in England with me?"
The Duke states forceable towards Anna knowing that Amalia's time in England could be extend as he often gives in to his daughters demands, he says "Amalia shall be present in the English court for a month after your wedding before she travels back to Cleves with our Ambassador"
Anna looks pleased with his answer before the Duke gestures for her to leave with Privy Chambers.

Anna almost runs back to her apartments at court to tell Amalia the news. Once she reaches Amalia's side she blurts out the news "Father has arrange my marriage to the Prince of Wales"
"That is wonderful news" says Amalia unhappily that she shall lose her best friend and sister.
Anna then hugs Amalia to only tell her "Sister, father has arrange for you travel with me to England to be present at my wedding but also to stay for the month afterwards. As the Ambassador from Cleves in the English court shall escort you back home"

That April day has come when Anna or Anne of Cleves walks gracefully down the aisle of the Church to wed the Princes of Cleves. With the King of England arranging with the Duke, Amalia's betrothal to his youngest son Edward the Duke of York.
