Queen's Chambers, Blutenburg Castle, Germany
June 14th 1509
Queen Catalina POV
I get dressed in a blue dress after my morning bath and try to think about how my friends are doing. I hope that they are fine and give England and France the heirs that they need.
I go to exit my chambers when I remember I forgot something and a maid of mine comes to help me. I don't notice that she's a witch and a mistress of Maximillian and wants her child on the throne until I am tied to a chair and the room is silenced.
''What do you think you are doing?'' I ask.
''Switching places with you and you won't be able to do anything. Don't worry. I'll have you as Maximillian's mistress for life and you will give birth to a ton of kids until finally, your body gives out and you die.'' She says, before I feel another babe in my womb and then she opens my mouth.
I at first think she's going to poison me when I then feel woozy and suddenly, I am looking at myself, trapped in the maid's body.
''My babe has your blood and Maximillian's blood flowing through his veins now. He shall be King now and he shall be known as King Marcus I of Germany.'' I hear my voice say and suddenly, my new body unties my old and I go to Maximillian, where he notices this body miscarried apparently but the spell on him has him making love to me before leaving me and I am trapped. Another spell on my body allows me to carry another's along with my husband's as a guard sees me still undressed in the King's study and after kissing him, I make love with him and then redress, and the guard takes me as his wife as my maid was unwed.
The maid knows how to act like me and I know I am trapped until death comes for me.
Throne Room
July 3rd 1509
Queen Catalina (Astoria) POV
I knew my plan would work and now I am a queen. My babes are not yet born but the first babe, my son shall be King one day and I shall make it happen.
Poor Catalina, having to suffer in my body until she dies. That's what she gets for taking the man I love away from me. And I have been with her since England so I know how to act around her friends.
To know that my babe will be heir to the German throne is one victory for me. Mayhap I should kill Catalina off sooner. My family is known for birthing multiples so three multiple pregnancies for her that's only Maximillian's will end her. And mayhap, I can have her reborn to me without any memories of us and she'll be the perfect princess to use for an alliance with Russia.
I cast the spells and it is done. She shall only live after three more pregnancies and then die delivering a child and then she shall become my child as I will make sure she is born to me.
Queen's Chambers/Birthing Rooms
October 1st 1509
Midwife POV
The Queen pushes out three boys (Astoria's) and two girls (Catalina's). I then change the bed sheets and the Queen's clothing before going out and giving the King the news.
King Maximillian POV
''They are precious my Queen.'' I say.
''That they are. What shall their names be?'' Catalina asks.
''The firstborn son is Crown Prince Marcus (mini Maximillian), Prince of Hanover the second born is Prince Cornelius (combination of Catalina and Maximillian), Duke of Munich, and the lastborn boy is Prince Finnick (male version of Catalina), Duke of Fussen. The firstborn girl is Princess Astoria (female version of Max), and the second born shall be Princess Anna (combo).'' I say.
Catalina doesn't look pleased with Astoria's name but she will have to live with it. Astoria (blood red hair, jade green oval shaped eyes, full lips, Grecian nose, heart shaped face, pale complexion), my lover will give birth to my children until she's barren and that's final.
I cannot wait to hold my son with Astoria in my arms. Hopefully he's as beautiful as his mother.
And just to make things clear to Catalina, that I am King and am allowed a mistress, I kiss an African American servant and she kisses back. the get I the bed with her where my wife is and make passionate love to her, impregnating her. I marry her off but she shall be a mistress and I correct my clothng and leave.
Birthing Rooms
February 4th 1510
Astoria Grey (Catalina) POV
I scream I birth Max's and my husband's (white blonde hair, almond shaped blue eyes, thin lips, oval shaped face, pale complexion, roman nose) children. How I wish I was Catalina again. I push out four sons, two Maximillian's and two are Daniel's.
Their names are Alexander (mini Maximillian), William (male Astoria) (Maximillian's son), Phillip (mini Daniel), and Charles (combo of Daniel and Astoria).
A few hours later, Maximillian comes into my bedchamber and makes love to me, impregnating me once more.
I hear my old self has yet to get pregnant again. Mayhap I can use this to my advantage. As the King's favorite, I can comfort him as long as it takes.
Later that night
Maximillian comes back, scowling. I massage his shoulders and after a few hours, he leaves satisfied in more than one way. I know that I have probably conceived again as making love twice on the same day when I am most fertile has a chance of pregnancy.
