June 7th 1509

Queen's Chambers, Chateau Blois, France

Queen Angelique POV

I get dressed in a green dress that compliments my eyes and get ready for court. But I am nervous.

I feel sick to my stomach as my morning sickness takes over and I lose my breakfast into the chamber pot.

I hope I give birth to sons as Louis needs heirs to the throne and the heir cannot be a woman. I need to give him his heir, his son and I shall not fail.

Oh, Louis please do not leave me as I am scared of what should happen when you die and I love you and wish for you to live for a long while Louis, my King.


August 10th 1509

King Louis XII POV

I see my wife come down as I am holding a feast to celebrate the future Crown Prince and the spare heir that Angelique is carrying.

I kiss Angelique (slanted green eyes, blood red wavy hair, pale complexion, Grecian nose, heart shaped face, and thin upper lip.) and start to dance with her as I never want to let her go.

Ah my Queen, thy art the most beautiful woman and thy art mine and I am so lucky to have thee as my wife and Queen.

And in just two months, you will give birth to my heir, Prince Louis, the thirteenth of his name and if my Queen has a spare, his name will be Prince Angelus in honor of her.

I watch my Queen as I know that sometimes multiples are born earlier than expected.

I know the people love her as much as the Queens of England and Germany, she makes clothes for the people, rich and poor.


Queen's Chambers

October 10th 1509

Midwife POV

''Push my Queen, push.'' I tell Queen Angelique as she gives birth to three sons and a daughter.

''What gender are they?'' Queen Angelique asks.

''Your Majesty has birthed three boys and a girl.'' I say.

''I have given birth to an heir?'' Queen Angelique asks.

''Yes, my Queen. You have birthed an heir.'' I tell her.


Outside the Queen's Chambers

King Louis XII POV

I pace back and forth as my Angelique, mi Amor screams giving birth to our heir. I suddenly feel Francois' hand on my shoulder and I wheel around.

''Everything shall be fine cousin. You shall see.'' Francois says as he soothes my worries away.

Then the midwife comes out and I go to her.

''How is my wife and Queen?'' I ask.

''She is fine and has birthed three princes and a princess.'' Midwife Naples says and I go to her and smile as I see my babes that either look like a combination or a miniature us.

''The firstborn (looks like Louis XII) is Crown Prince Louis, Prince of Aquitaine, the second born (looks like mother) shall be named Prince Angelus, Duke of Britanny, our youngest son shall be Prince Pierre, Duke of Orleans, and our lovely daughter shall be named Princess Anne, Madame Royal.

I kiss my wife and Queen as she has done what she said she would do. She has given me my heir and two spares and a beautiful princess.

I am so happy and cannot wait to tell this news to King Henry VIII of England and Maximilian I of Germany.

I cannot wait to tell them the news and mayhap make a betrothal contract for my daughter and sons if they have daughters.

I know Henry does but I am unsure about Maximilian and his Queen, Catalina. Catalina has yet to give birth to Maximilian's heirs and heiresses.


Francois POV

I cannot believe that she succeeded as I had hoped that she would only deliver daughters or it could have been found out that she could have faked the pregnancy!

Now I shall never be on the throne but alas, I do have morals so I shall be happy for Louis and I shall be happy to be Count of Angouleme with my future bride, Princess Katherine as Countess.

Princess Katherine (making her older) was born in 1498 with her twin, Prince Edward Tudor, who died when they were a year old. Their brother, Prince Edmund Tudor (making him older) was born in 1496 is Princess Mary's twin brother and protective of his sisters.

I hear Edmund is to be King of Hungary, Croatia, and Bohemia as the husband to the future Queen of Hungary, Croatia, and Bohemia.

They shall rule from Austria as they will send others to check on their kingdoms for them and tell them of any disputes or chaos that needs handling.

And Edmund shall still rule should Eleanor die as it was stated in the betrothal contract.


October 15th 1509

As I think of next year, I think of how I shall have heirs of my own. Katherine shall give me plenty of sons and I think I shall grow to love her.

I at least hope Katherine births alive sons and not only alive daughters and dead sons as is known from her mother.

I hope and pray that all of our children live and I shall have an heir and spares as I need instead of just daughters.

I shall name my firstborn son Henri as I want to honor her family while making it French.

The second shall be Francois and there shall be Margaret, Pierre, and Evan.

Oh, how I cannot wait to wed Princess Katherine next year.
