June 12th 1503

Queen's Chambers, Hampton Palace, England

Queen Persephone POV

As I am almost due, Henry has me lying in as I am supposed to as he says he worries about the babies and my health.

I sew clothes and the christening gowns for the babes as I am carrying more than one and the babes can be born any minute so I want to be ready. I make too many clothes and I give them to everyone who needs clothing as some were gowns for me or clothes for Henry but I overdid it.

I see mother and father with my siblings, even though I am adopted I still see them as my family and I see that she has delivered five sons and two daughters.

''Your Majesty, may I reintroduce your sisters, Mary, Elizabeth, and Anne. And may I introduce you to your youngest siblings Henry Boleyn, Charles Boleyn, George Boleyn, Alexander Boleyn, Thomas Boleyn, Bridget Boleyn, and Grace Boleyn.'' my father, Lord Thomas Boleyn says as Henry had them come here so I can see them again as I had missed them.

Mary comes and hugs me and I hug back as my family mean so much to me as I never want them to leave as I had to leave them to come here to see who I could marry as it was father's wish for me to be well off and now, he's the Earl of Richmond.

Father, a knight is now an Earl and I do not know how he gained that title as I know nothing of what is going on at court right now. Henry wishes not to stress me out and so keeps quiet when it comes to court.

I look at little Henry and smile at my little brother as he and the others are the cutest children ever.

My husband and lord comes in and sees all the children and smiles as he imagines our children and I have told him the truth about my heritage, that I was left on mother and father's doorstep when I was a babe and know not what my true parents look like and he has told the court to make sure there are no rumors should the babe not have our features but my true parents features.

Hallway outside the Queen's Chambers

King Henry VII POV

I pace outside the doors as I hear my beloved wife scream as she delivers our child into the world. At least, I believe it is one child she carries and then after many hours of hearing my wife scream, a lady-in-waiting, Annabeth Grey comes out.

''Your Majesty, Her Majesty has given birth to four princes and a princess.'' Annabeth says.

I sprint in there to see my wife's silver blonde hair sticking to her as she holds one of our sons.

''What shall their names be my King?'' Persephone asks me.

''For our eldest son (red hair, slanted green eyes, pale complexion, oval shaped face, Grecian nose, and thin lips) he shall be named Henry Tudor, Prince of Wales. For our second eldest (male version of mother) his name shall be Edward Tudor, Duke of York, our third eldest (looks like Henry VIII) his name shall be Arthur Tudor, Duke of Kent and our youngest son (mini version of Henry VII) shall be named William, Duke of Manchester. Our daughter (mini Persephone) shall be named Elizabeth, Princess Royal.'' I say,

''As is your right my love.'' Persephone says and smiles at little Arthur as she feeds him.

I send someone to ring the bells and to have the town criers announce the news.

''Come to bed love.'' Persephone says as she's done feeding little Arthur.

Across England, Ireland, and Wales

''Hear ye, hear ye Queen Persephone has delivered four princes and a princess. You are hereby invited to the christening of Crown Prince Henry, Prince of Wales, Prince Edward, Duke of York, Prince Arthur, Duke of Kent, Prince William, Duke of Manchester, and Princess Elizabeth, Princess Royal.'' the town criers say.

England celebrates having not only one but four princes and a bonny princess.

July 31st 1503

Earl's Study, Richmond Manor

Thomas Boleyn POV

I get many people wishing to create betrothal contracts between my sons and their unborn daughters and my youngest daughters and their sons.

Jonathan Seymour wants Bridget as a bride for his son, Edward and I think about it before replying.

John Seymour, Earl of Somerset,

I accept for my daughter Bridget to marry your eldest son, Edward. Of course, we shall go to King Henry VII and create the contract and hopefully, he approves of the match.

Sincerely,

Earl Boleyn.

I roll it up, seal it and send it to Jonathan Seymour by messenger. I then go through letters to decide any other future in-laws. Some look promising while others I burn as the others are not advantageous at all.

I see a betrothal with the Duke of Florence's newborn daughter with my heir, Henry.

I also betroth Grace to the Duke of Cork, Lord Hamish O' Reilly.

Charles, I betroth to Anne Seville.

George, I betroth to Edith Swan.

And Alexander to newborn Serenity Brandon, sister to Charles Brandon.

I hope their lives shall be perfect as they deserve to be. Elizabeth tells me she is with child once more and everything is perfect.

I hope it is sons once more even if I already have enough sons, I worry that they could become ill and that death will take them from me.

I want daughters as well but I worry about my sons too much as my daughters have always been healthy but George is sickly and I worry that Henry, Charles and Alexander will become sickly as well.

I check on George and he looks like he is getting better and I am happy about that as I love my sons and wish them a healthy long life.

I check on all of my children and I see that Elizabeth is sickly so I move her to another room where she's diagnosed with the sweating sickness and I worry about her as she's quarantined.

A few days pass and she slowly recovers from her bout with the sweats and shall live a long life as the doctor says she will.
