Queen's Chambers, Hampton Palace, England

Queen Jasmina Tudor nee Potter POV

As a mother to three and counting, and the sister to James and aunt to his children, Richard Godric Potter, Felix Liam Potter, and Alessandra Briar Potter, a niece who has an overprotective uncle in the King.

As well as in my brother who we thought dead, Juan Potter. He's also protective of my children as he knows how people can be. And now, I can focus on Bridgette's wedding to King Francis I and after she is married, the attention goes back to my children and Country.

"I, King Francis I of Germany take thee, Lady Bridgette Fitzroy of England to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do us part, and thereto I plight thee my troth." Francis vows.

""I, Lady Bridgette Fitzroy of England take thee, King Francis I of Germany to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to be Bonaire and buxom at bed and at board, till death do us part, and thereto I plight unto thee my troth." Bridgette vows.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife." the priest says then Bridgette and Francis kiss.

The Archbishop of Germany comes over to coronate Bridgette as Queen of Germany.

"Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the people of Germany and the dominions thereto belonging, according to the statutes in Parliament agreed on, and the laws and customs of the same? The archbishop asks.

"I solemnly promise to do so.'' Bridgette swears.

"Will you to your power cause law and justice in mercy to be executed in all your judgements?" he asks.

''I will.'' Bridgette vows.

"Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the laws of God, the true profession of the gospel and the Catholic religion established by law, and will you preserve unto the bishops and clergy of the German realms, and to the churches committed to their charge, all such rights and privileges as by law do or shall appertain unto them, or any of them?'' he asks.

"All this I promise to do.'' Bridgette vows.

Bridgette puts her hand on a gospel.

"The things which I have here before promised, I will perform and keep. So, help me God.'' Bridgette vows.

''I now declare you the Queen of Germany." the archbishop declares as he crowns Bridgette Queen of Germany.


Later that night

Queen Bridgette POV

I wait for my husband to enter and as soon as he does, he makes love to me, impregnating me and soon, we'll be in Germany where I'll deliver his heir and be loved by the people. But will my husband love me? Before I can ask, he kisses me with all the passion he has.

"Bridgette, this may have been arranged but you have stolen my heart ever since you could marry." Francis says.

I blush and start to cry happy tears as everyone, but Henri, Jasmina Siriana, and James told me I would only wed an old beggar or worse, become a working woman!

But I tell him that the tears are happy tears and tomorrow, I will be happy to leave with him, as long as I can visit when the heirs are born.

"Of course, my Bridgette. Anything for you, you shall want for nothing my love." Francis says.

With that, I kiss Francis, make love to him, three more times and go to bed.

The Bridgette Ship

King Francis I POV

We had left on the thirteenth, but we still are on our way to our Kingdom, Germany.

It's storming and I have Bridgette in our room until the storm passes. Bridgette wants to be there for Jasmina when she delivers in either March or April.

So, I will make sure there is safe passage when she will travel back to England by making sure there's another ship to keep her company on the way.

I shall send my brother to guard her on her way as she travels back. As my older brother Phillip is no longer with us, I will ask my brothers, Cornelius, Leopold and George to watch after my wife.

Being born in 1481, almost dying as a baby, and never really getting to play outside until I was healthier, I never really had any friends until I was ten and seven.

As I am now ten and twenty, I haven't had my friends for real long. Opposed to the royals who have had friends since birth.


January 31st, 1511

Hampton Palace, England

King Henry VIII POV

Alas, my sister has left for Germany, and looking at my Jasmina, mi amor, who looks almost ready to give birth any day. And then I look at Siri, dancing and singing her heart out.

Siriana and Jasmina sound like angels come to Earth and they are very graceful when they dance.

Though Jasmina isn't dancing for a few months yet as her feet hurt her as they swell up.

Jasmina and I have congratulated Marie and Anna for their second pregnancies' as they are both seven months with child with their husbands' heirs.

Anna (blonde hair, almond shaped blue eyes, Grecian nose, tan complexion, heart shaped lips, heart shaped face) has given Viktor Delacour (black hair, upturned hazel eyes, thin lips, pale complexion, diamond shaped face) three sons and two daughters before this pregnancy. Angelus Thaddeus Delacour (combo), Marcellus Mikhail Delacour (mini-Viktor), Lucien Julius Delacour (mini male Anna), Gabriella Daniella Delacour (mini female Viktor), and Fleur Rosalinda Delacour (mini-Anna).

Dear Marie,

I congratulate you on your second pregnancy. And as the babies' uncle, I deserve to spoil them rotten. Tell Lady Anna I congratulate her as well. I sent both of you something for the unborn babes. As Anna is distantly related to us through marriage. Yes, she's a fifth cousin of Jasmina's, though she may not know as her family hadn't talked to Jasmina's mother. Sorry, my sister I am rambling. I have to go; Rose is trying to take her first steps.

Your brother,

King Henry VIII

I wait until it dries and send it off, knowing Marie will get this letter. Meanwhile, I look at Rosie, I may have lied in my letter to stop writing before I spilled any secrets out.

"Who's our Tudor Rose? Who's the most beautiful baby in the whole of England? You are my Rose and your brothers, and I shall protect you until the end." I speak.

She gurgles just as Siriana comes in, with a black eye.

"Siri! Who did this to you?!" I ask.

"I can't. He said he'd kill... the princes if I did." Siri said and I see red. Whoever did this shall be the scum of the Earth until a Royal Family of Britain dies out.

"Please tell me my darling cousin, we will take care of it. I swear it." I tell her.

"Ashton Vernon Dursley (Vernon look alike), cousin." Siriana says.

I send guards after Dursley and after his punishment, his name is drug through the mud, and no one wants to associate with the man who hurt the King's child cousin.

I spend more time with my family for weeks after what happened to Siri, as it's a wakeup call.
