Chapter Eight: The Wedding and Hope Springs Eternal
Henry stood in front of the priest silently berating himself for being there. 'I should be
looking for Danielle! NOT getting married!' He glanced behind him at the sound of a woman sobbing. It
grew louder as the Princess of Spain walked closer to the prince and the priest. When she reached the pulpit
(is that right??) the priest started the ceremony. The Princess tried to withhold her sobs, but they just
burst out in a loud wail.
Henry found this very funny, so he started laughing. 'She doesn't want to get married
either! What a RELIEF!' He stood up and pulled her up too. She started babbling in Spanish about her beau
that she loved, but Henry shushed her. "Madame, Madame, Madame! I know exactly how you feel." Henry
smiled and kiss her cheek. "Go to your love." The Princess lit up and ran to her lover. They started to kiss
wildly as Henry pulled off his long cape and ran out a side door.
Intent on finding Danielle, he ran through the village, passing Maurice. Henry stopped and
went back to Maurice. "Where is she?"
"The Baroness?" Maurice inquired.
"No, Danielle. Was she not at your manor?"
"Yes, your Highness, but she's been sold!" Maurice exclaimed.
Henry felt as if a very heavy weight had crashed into him. "Sold? To whom!?"
Jacqueline ran up. "Pierre Le Pieu, just after the masque."
Henry felt a immense rage build up in him as he imagined his wife in that slime's hands.
"Tell no one we have spoken, for all shall reveal itself in due course." With that said he jumped on to the
horse Laurent had brought him. Laurent and his men had ridden up in the middle of the conversation,
knowing his friend so well as to know where he was headed.
"Let's go. We need to get Danielle back from Le Pieu!" Henry kicked his horse into a
gallop, racing to rescue his love.

Hey peeps! Sorry that this is so short, but it's a sort of cliffhanger for the fight between Le Pieu and Danielle and Henry and Le Pieu. I need to get some thoughts organized, but I will update as soon as I can. Semester finals are coming up and I need to study, and then I've got my driver's license test too, so it might not be till the middle of June before I can update. But I will keep up in writing the chapters, so after this little hiatus, you can expect a plethora of new chapters ready to be reviewed (hint, hint)
