Catalina Boleyn

I woke up cuddled close to Mary and quickly threw the covers off running out and towards mama and papa's door, I pulled it open jumping into mama's bed and snuggled close to her under the covers. "Catalina" papa warned waking up from the movement on the bed, I hid under the covers "Katherine wake up" papa said shaking her as I closed my eyes.

"What it is?" She yawned hugging me close still half asleep.

"Catalina Boleyn, get out of this bed at once" papa snapped fully awake and he pulled mama up with him.

"I thought you were sleeping in your room tonight" mama asked rubbing her eyes awake.

"I woke up and wanted to sleep with you" papa looked to the clock and threw the covers back rubbing his head.

"I will not tolerate this" I started to cry and mama pulled me close kissing my head.

"Stop it sweetheart, you still have to say sorry to Isabella today" she brought me back to my room and left me with Mary who was now up.

"They caught me" I whined as she helped me get dressed for the day.

"What did you expect? You know you are supposed to be sleeping in your room" she kissed my cheek and tied the stings to the blue gown that matched my eyes. Lady Hobbs curled my hair and with a black ribbon pulled my hair back out of my eyes so it fell down my back it pretty curls.

Mary was dressed in a white and green gown and had to leave to her chambers, Rose, Cordelia and Isabella came back in to get dressed and I stood in the corner holding Kitty close to me. They all completely ignored me as they giggled and talked while getting dressed "Bella?" I said quietly as she pulled her slippers on, but she acted as if I was not even there. "Bella please!" Tears started forming in my eyes as I looked up at Cordelia, but she looked away as did Rose.

"Let us go ask mama if we can go for a walk in the gardens this morning after breakfast" Bella said and they followed her.

"Bella please! I want to go! Can I?" I begged grabbing her red dress.

"Get away!" She shoved me away and I fell back "you are not allowed to come with us" she snapped and turned on her heel leaving. Tears slipped down my cheeks as they left me alone in the room, I got up and pushed the tears off my cheek and followed them out into the parlor where mama and papa where already eating. "Mama can we please go for a walk in the gardens this morning!" Bella begged mama who lay her fork down.

"Alright, after we eat, Catalina would you like to go?" Bella shot a glare at me and I looked down.

"I do not want to!" I whimpered angrily throwing my fork against the table and crossing my arms with Kitty in my lap.

"Do not act that way" papa snapped in a warning tone.

"Well, I guess you can go play with Cecily and Margaret" mama said taking a sip from her goblet.

"They will most likely wish to go as well mama" Rose piped up.

"She will come with me" I looked up at papa.

"Can we go as well?" Tom asked as he Willy and Tony sat down for breakfast.

"You may, but remember to behave" mama said with a smile, they were always up to something. Breakfast soon ended and they all got ready to go outside while I held tightly to papa's hand, I wanted so badly to go outside with mama, but Bella would never let me. "Mi amor, are you sure you do not want to go outside?" Mama asked kneeling before me, no one noticed the dangerous look Bella shot over to me, I turned away from mama's kiss.

"I do not want to!" I jumped back toward papa burying my face in his side turning away from her completely, she stood up and patted her skirts.

"We shall be in my office, do not worry sweetheart" papa said kissing her and they left with mama glancing back at me. "Come along sweetheart" I held his hand tightly as we left and I followed him down to his office.

"What are you doing papa?" I asked curiously from my seat by the window, I watched as mama and the others played happily running into the maze.

"Writing a letter to the King of Spain about the marriage between Elizabeth and Edward" I jumped from my seat and crawled up into his lap. He sighed leaning back so I could fit "why did not you not want to go with your mother and siblings?" He asked as I lay my head on his shoulder with a whimper.

"Bella said I was not allowed" he groaned in annoyance as I whimpered small tears leaking from the corners of my eyes "I wanted to go papa, but Bella said that I have to stay here" he pet my back.

"Do not listen to Bella, she is just very angry at you right now, did you say sorry to her?" I looked up at him with frustration.

"I tried, I really did!" I cried in anger, it is not my fault that she would not listen.

"She would not listen?" He asked and I nodded laying my head against his chest.

"She even pushed me papa" he shook his head muttering something I could not hear, "none of them like me, Rose did before, but not anymore" I whined starting to cry.

"They all love you Catalina, they are just mad right now, but it will pass" I shook my head not believing him, I took his hand and pulled him to the window pointing down.

"They like it better without me" I whimpered sadly, he picked me up with a groan.

"No they do not, they are just playing, I am sure by tomorrow everything will be forgiven" he said looking down as Isabella playfully pushed William.

"Bella never forgives or forgets, she is really mean sometimes papa" I scowled down on her in anger "she deserves to marry that mean man and get hit" I hissed in anger and papa slapped my hip as he held me.

"You do not say that Catalina, no one deserves that, Isabella is just very…strong willed, I shall talk with her" my scowl did not leave.

"She never listens papa" he knew I was right.

Isabella Boleyn

"Bella, can you not be nice to anyone?" Mary hissed once we were alone in the maze.

"What are you talking about?" I snapped to her rolling my eyes and flicking my hair over my shoulder at her.

"I am talking about Catalina, she is absolutely frightened of you" I laughed twirling.

"Good. She should be, she broke-" she cut me off quickly, I hated when she did that.

"Yes, she broke the brush but it is fixed, she is sorry Bella and you know that, you are just selfish and always have to be angry at someone, you like being the center of attention, that is why you ran away to begin with, you wanted all the attention" I stopped twirling and glared at her.

"I ran away because I did not want to be here!" I growled in anger tightening my hands in fists.

"Do not lie to me, everyone is getting sick of it, especially papa, one day you are going to do something, it may be small, but it will be the last straw for him and mama and you shall have nothing" she said raising her head in the air.

"You think you are so much better then me because you are a Princess" I took a few threatening steps towards her and she did not back down.

"I know I am better then you, and not because I am a Princess. Because I show my family love and respect and my siblings like to spend time with me because they know I shall not threaten or hit them" she said with a haughty look.

"They love me" I snapped in defense.

"Maybe, but they do not trust you" I shoved her back angrily and she stumbled, but caught herself.

"Isabella? Mary?" Mama called and we both quickly left the maze and ran back to her.

"We are here!" Mary called as we left the maze and went to her side.

"Where were you both?" She asked with a smile caressing both our cheeks.

"Playing in the maze mama, there is nothing to worry about" Mary said smiling her cheek, she shot me a look as if daring me to tell her the truth.

"Is something wrong Isabella?" I snapped out of it and looked to mama.

"No, everything is fine" I lied and ran off.

"You run like a girl!" William laughed and I playfully shoved him.

"Well I am a girl" I said sarcastically.

"Bella, look!" Rose called and I lifted my skirts running forward to see a baby bird, it was shivering and obviously cold, long passed springtime when animal babies are normally born.

"We can save it" I said and reached out, Cordelia slapped my hands.

"You are far too rough, I shall take care of it" Cordelia gently picked it up and pooled her cloak in front of her wrapping the baby bird.

"I can be gentle" I defended.

"Isabella you are far rougher then any of us here, even Tom, Willy and Tony" Rose said rolling her eyes, I glared at them all in contempt and went to sit by mama.

"What did they find?" She asked pushing some of my hair out of my eyes.

"A baby bird, it has been abandoned" she glanced over at them nervously obviously not liking them playing with the small bird, "do you think I am to rough?" I inquired looking up at her and she laughed kissing my temple.

"You are by far my most rambunctious child" I glared forward in anger "much more even then your brothers" I did not understand, why can I not be more like Cordelia?

"Is that bad?" I asked softly looking up.

"No, but I had hoped you would outgrow it, you are a woman now and when you turn 16 you shall marry and start a family of your own, you should settle yourself down, that type of behavior will not be favored in a wife and mother" mama said truthfully.

"Fine, I shall be more like Cordelia if you want" I snapped in anger.

"I do not want you to be like your sister Isabella, stop trying to twist my words, I am just saying that you always seem to find a way to get into trouble, the King is very livid with you now" I bit my lip and looked up at her.

"Is it true what the King said? That you wanted to be his mistress?" She tensed not liking the way the conversation was going.

"Why are you so interested in this? It happened a long time ago" she did not look at me but instead focused her attention on my siblings.

"I want to know who you are, it obviously impacted you a lot, I just want to know" she sighed and looked down into her lap.

"It did impact me a lot Isabella, far more then you shall ever understand" she whispered and I scooted closer to her leaning my head against my arm. "When you are older I shall tell you what happened" I grew enraged, I was old enough now!

"Mama you can tell me now! I am far more mature then my age" I insisted grabbing her hand, she swallowed hard.

"The King…he forced the divorce, he said if I would not agree he would make Mary a bastard, so naturally I agreed" I relaxed looking up at her face, a shadow had fallen across it as she told the story.

"How did you come to marry papa? Did you fall in love with him? Did you always love him but never said anything because you were married to the King?" I asked, I always believed my parents marriage to be one like a fairytale.

"No, I absolutely hated him with everything in me, I was forced to marry him and sent away to Hever Castle" I gasped, that could not be true, they loved each other.

"But…but you love papa" I said in horror, she laughed kissing my hand.

"I do, now if you listen I will explain" I nodded and smiled softly in apologies for interrupting her story. "Well, I got pregnant soon after we married in 1517, your father was absolutely livid because I was supposed to be barren" I laughed looking out at my younger siblings, she was obviously not barren, well back then at least.

"Obviously not" I laughed and she patted my hands but then a thought occurred to me, Tom and I were not born till September 1517 "wait, that does not make sense" I said and her smile turned sad.

"I know mi amor, I was not pregnant with you or Tom, you can never tell this to any one of them, this is not something I would like them all to know" I nodded quickly.

"I promise not to tell" I said squeezing her hand.

"Your father sent me back to Hever Castle after he found out I was pregnant, we were at Court at the time, after I arrived Charles Brandon arrived with a letter from the Queen, your sister Anne" I was fully engrossed in the story and only heard mama's voice. "You remember when we talked about what married life means?" I nodded, she was talking about when a man takes his wife to bed, and that is how you create a child.

"I understand mama" she nodded and bit her lip.

"Well as you know you do not have to be married to lay with someone, and Charles Brandon came to Hever with a letter from the Queen as you know, but he had ulterior motives. Your father tried to tell me but I hated him at the time, he was the devil in my eyes and I would not obey him, Brandon asked me if I would take him to bed and I sat no, he was very angry by this. He started yelling at me and slammed me into the wall, I miscarried the child" her voice was soft.

She must have been hurt very much at losing the child "I am sorry mama" I whispered kissing her cheek and she smiled sadly.

"You should not be, for if not for that I would not have you" I knew this must not be then end of the story because Charles Brandon did something to mama when she was at Dover Castle after the birth of Cordelia. "Well, it was a few months after that I got pregnant again with you and Tom, your father was leaving for the North when I told him, he was very happy" she smiled at the memory, but then a shadow passed over her face.

"What happened?" I looked over as William and Anthony yelled chasing Tom in laughter threw the flowers.

"After your father left I was on my way back to my rooms when the King stopped me saying he wished to speak" she took a deep breath closing her eyes "he forced me to lay with him in his office and I left to Grimstone Manor immediately after" I gasped in shock.

"Was papa angry?" I all but whispered.

"Yes, he was very angry, he kept me away from Court till September when we were summoned back for the celebrations of Queen Anne's confining, I gave birth to you and Tom and we were both very happy, you both made me very happy and brought your father and I closer" I smiled trying to create the picture in my mind.

"Then what went wrong? Why did you sleep with the King" she sat up a little straighter.

"Nothing went wrong Isabella, I was growing to love your father and the King did not like that, the King was very angry that Elizabeth was a girl even more so because I had a boy. Then one day the King sent for me, I had no choice but to go, I will not explain myself to anyone, he promised to leave us alone after that, but it was a lie" this was when she probably convinced Cordelia.

"But you say you loved papa" I did not understand why she would sleep with the King to keep him away.

"I did, that is why I did it, I wanted him to leave our family alone, I thought it was the only way" she shook her head thinking I did not understand, but I now did.

"You were doing what was best for your family" I whispered showing her how much I understood, "but you got pregnant with Cordelia" she nodded.

"Your father hated me so much, even took a mistress, Lady Elizabeth FitzGerald" I gasped, Rose's mother. "After I had Cordelia though, everything got better between us, he was very happy when I conceived William and Anthony, though Henry was absolutely angry" she laughed softly at the memory.

"Is this when Charles Brandon came back? You had to be at Dover now" she nodded holding back tears.

"He is an evil man, him and Sir Thomas More kidnapped me after I put you Mary, Cordelia and your brother down for the night" I snuggled closer to her, a lot of this would explain how over protective she is with us. "He….forced me to lay with him and your father saved me, I was scared I would lose your brothers but I did not, thank God, but he did not get caught. It took one more kidnapping for someone to actually catch him, he forced me…well again and I almost lost your brothers, your father caught him and he was executed soon after" mama's life was so tragic.

"I am so sorry mama" I whimpered and she kissed my head.

"It is alright sweetheart, I am very happy now, you have nothing to be sorry for, like I said that was all in the past" she cradled my face and kissed my forehead.

"Did you ever sleep with the King again?" She let my face go and looked ahead.

"Yes, you probably do not remember but your father was sent to the North again, it was a war and very bad, many people were getting killed, it was the only way the King would bring him back" I hated the King now, if anything he is the one that deserves to be sent to the Tower.

"I do not look at my life in sadness Isabella, I would not change it in anyway, for I now have wonderful children and a husband I love, the past is what makes us who we are" I nodded and kissed her cheek.

"I love you mama" she smiled in happiness.

"I love you too, now please be nicer to your siblings" I could not guarantee that, I was still very, very, very mad at Catalina.

Rose Boleyn

We were getting ready for bed in the dressing chamber and walked out to see mama talking with a tearful Catalina, she did not want to sleep in with us, she wanted to sleep with mama and papa. Isabella walked out gracefully and went to the vanity and brushed her hair ignoring everyone.

"Goodnight mi amors" mama said leaving the room and a very upset Catalina.

"Goodnight mama" we all chorused at once as the door was closed.

"Get out brat your in my spot" Bella snarled to Catalina who was laying in the middle of the bed curled up holding Kitty tightly as if her life depended on it.

"I like it here though" she whimpered softly, I felt so bad for her.

"Bella just let her sleep there" Cordy sighed standing up after brushing her golden red hair.

"No, it is my spot and I am not going to let a little brat who acts like a baby sleep in it" she hissed then snatched Kitty right from her.

"Give her back Bella!" She sobbed getting out of bed and jumping for it, but Catalina was small for her age and could not reach, and I was not about to get in-between her and Bella.

"How would you like it if I threw her at the wall and broke her?" She pulled her arm back and made ready as if to throw the porcelain doll that I knew for a fact would break.

"Isabella stop this at once!" Cordy snapped in anger.

"Shut up Cordelia stay out of this" she snapped then looked to me as if daring me to even try to stop her. "Tell me Catalina would you like it if I threw it at the wall?" She snapped to Catty.

"No! Please Bella give her back I am sorry please!" Catty sobbed, desperation in her voice as she slung to Bella's chemise.

"You would be hurt, would you not?" She nodded rivers running down her cheeks, begging her to stop.

"Bella please stop this, you are overreacting, papa is going to be very mad!" I said finally speaking up, but it was too late. She threw the doll across the room and it smashed against the wall, there was no possible way you could save it.

Catty screamed so loudly, sobs strangling her words and she bolted across the room tiny hands gathering the glass frantically, but she was getting cut and her hands became bloody fast. A large shard of glass was sticking out of her palm as she screamed and I felt sick to my stomach.

Mama and papa ran in as fast as they could, mama's chemise was hanging off one shoulder and she looked a bit sweaty papa came a few seconds later and looked better then she did. "Dios" mama gasped seeing Catty's hand and ran over, she had not stopped trying to gather the glass and mama pulled her back holding her hands away from her body, but Catty was frantic and tried to get away.

"What the hell happened!" Papa snarled and we all looked to Bella who was as pale as a sheet, "what have you done to her?" He snarled grabbing her arm forcibly snarling in anger as mama pulled the glass out of Catty's unwilling hands.

"I-I…." was all Bella could say.

"That is it! I am sending you to Dover for permanent residence under the supervision of Lady Middleton, you are not allowed at Court or to see your siblings until you are 16 years of age and married" he shoved her away towards the bed. She looked in shock not comprehending any of this "take her to our chambers and send for the doctor immediately" he told mama and she quickly lifted Catty up and brought her away.

I was scared and started to cry and papa came over and kissed my head "is she going to be okay?" I asked in tears.

"I am sure she will be fine" he promised and kissed my head "Cordelia, bring her to your chambers and go to sleep, everything is going to be okay" she nodded she too was very pale.

"Alright papa" she took my head and led me away, I did not fight her, but did look back to see Bella frightened beyond belief at the thought of being sent away forever.

Thomas Boleyn, Prince of Spain, Duke of Wiltshire

This was it. I could not take anymore of her bullying, she had gone to far tonight "Lady Middleton start having her things packed I want her gone as soon as possible" I ordered and the young woman nodded. She was in her 30's with children and has been in Katherine's service for sometime.

"I am sorry papa, please do not keep me away from everyone" she begged in fear.

"Your sorry's mean nothing! Did you not see what you have done? I have had enough Isabella! You are leaving and that is it!" I snarled in anger, I was not going to send her away forever, but she needed to believe that, she needed a good douse of fear in her life.

"I mean it this time papa I swear!" Tears started down her face, but I was too angry to let that affect me.

"As fast as you can Lady Middleton" I called leaving the room and going back to my chambers. "Have a carriage made ready as quick as can be, it shall be heading to Dover Castle" I said to a page boy and he nodded.

"Yes, Your Highness" I then went to my chambers where Catalina was screaming in tears as Katherine held her tightly, her white chemise now smeared with our daughters blood. She held her in a sitting position in her lap as the doctor removed shards of glass from her hand.

"KITTY! PAPA SHE KILLED HER!" She screamed fighting against her mother and the doctor, tears were slipping down Katherine's face as she restrained her.

"Let her go" I ordered and Catalina immediately rain into my arms her entire body was trembling, she was very attached to the doll and it must be like losing half of yourself for she was panicking so badly, she did not even feel the pain in her hands. "Everything is going to be okay sweetheart, but you must let the doctor see your hands" she shook her head in denial of everything.

I sat down on the bed and the doctor peeled one arm away and cleaned the hand and wrapped bandages around it then did the same to the other "I do not know if it will grow infected, I shall come visit in the morning" I nodded and handed Catalina over to Katherine. I dressed knowing that getting Isabella down to the carriage would be a fight, she would not go easily.

"Your Highness, everything is packed and the carriage is ready" I nodded and went back to the girls room where Isabella was dressed in a brown riding gown.

"She is not allowed outside till I permit it, she will take inside and take lessons, study and learn the tasks of keeping a household and embroidery, guards shall be set at every door and she is to always have a chaperon if you are not with her. I will not have her running away again, that is all, now go" Isabella refused shaking her head and holding tightly to the post.

"I will not go!" She sobbed shoving the woman from her.

"Thomas, what is going on?" Katherine asked quickly running in, she still had not changed the chemise.

"Go back to Catalina, she needs you" I said and stepped forward grabbing Isabella tugging her free from the bedpost and started down the hall. "People are trying to sleep, stay quiet!" I snapped, she sobbed quietly as I brought her to the courtyard and set her in the carriage.

"Your Highness" the guards said bowing, they would be following on horseback.

"Stop for nothing and no one" I told the driver who nodded.

"Papa please I beg you not to do this!" Isabella sobbed from her seat.

"You should have thought about that before acting as you have done, those cuts can become seriously infected and she could get sick" I took a deep breath softening my words "maybe I shall think of letting your siblings come visit you in the future, be good and do as Lady Middleton says, goodbye Isabella" I shut the door and nodded to the driver. She needed to learn her lesson and this was the only way.

"Where have you sent her!" Katherine demanded angrily when I walked back in, Catalina was quiet now. Katherine was in bed sitting up and Catalina was laying in-between her legs, head resting on her chest her arm tight around her middle sucking on her thumb.

"To Dover" was all I said before walking over to them both "do not do that" I said and she looked up at me.

"Or my thumb falls off" she stated, I had told her that to break the habit when she was 6.

"Exactly" I smiled and kissed her forehead, tonight was too traumatic for her to even think about asking her to sleep by herself even with Mary.

"I want Kitty" she whimpered hugging Katherine tighter.

"Hush mi amor, everything shall be fine" Katherine whispered stroking her cheek.

"I shall fix her for you I promise" she nodded and closed her eyes snuggling closer to Katherine. This was certainly a step in the wrong direction, now she was going to be terrified to even sleep with her sisters, I rubbed my head already feeling a headache coming, finally I undressed and crawled into bed as Katherine lay back maneuvering Catalina into the middle where I wrapped my arm around both of them.

Cordelia Tudor

I snuck into Mary's bedchamber that she shared with Beth, Margaret and Cecily, Rose knew where I would be and decided to stay back and just go to sleep. "What happened tonight?" Beth asked curiously, they had heard small bits from maids.

"Bella smashed Kitty into the wall in front of Catty, she freaked out and tried gathering the pieces back up but the shards stabbed her hands, it was scary she kept screaming" they both looked absolutely shocked.

"She loved that doll very much, it was so nice of you to give it to her when she was having those nightmares" Mary said and I smiled just a little.

"What is happening to Bella?" Beth asked softly.

"Papa sent her away to Dover, he said she was not allowed back to Court and we were not allowed to visit her, not until she is 16 and married" Mary paled.

"Oh" she said in shock "was it that bad?" I nodded remembering Catty's frightened face.

"She was so attached to it" I whispered sadly.

"Maybe it is our fault?" Beth said questionably and we both looked at her oddly, "I mean we never really included her in anything because she was younger and always attached to grandmamma, but we include Margaret and Cecily, now that I think of it, it does not seem fair" she was right.

"We should spend more time with her then" we all agreed with Mary, "the boys will be upset tomorrow when they hear what happened" she then added.

"Catty did not deserve that though" I said truthfully before standing up "I have to get back, Rose is very scared and I do not want to leave her alone for too long" they nodded and we all went to bed.

September 1st 1529

Thomas Boleyn, Duke of Pembroke

I got up early today and went to breakfast as usual, but something was different "what is wrong?" I asked Edward, we usually had breakfast with him and James when mama and papa were busy in the morning.

"Bella has been send to Dover till she turns 16" he whispered I felt hollow suddenly. Isabella I were twins and I was never really separated from her that long, we have always been together, yeah we were different and she could be a pain sometimes, but she was my sister.

"What?" I demanded.

"I guess she broke Catty's doll and she flipped out ripping her hands up trying to put it back together, grandpapa sent her away" I quickly left the room and went to my parents bedchamber, I did not knock, just threw the door open.

Catty had bandages around her hands and was sobbing as the doctor took them off while she was seated in mama's lap "Tom, you are supposed to be eating breakfast" papa said and I tore my eyes from Catty.

"What happened last night?" I asked respectably.

"Your sister broke Catalina's doll, she panicked from stress and hurt her hands, now go back to breakfast" he ordered, but I would not listen.

"Where is Bella now?" This time I demanded it, I was the Duke of Pembroke for God's sake!

"At Dover Castle, she will remain there till I see fit, now go!" He was close to yelling and Catty let out a scream as the doctor pulled out an embedded piece of glass. "What she did last night was uncalled for, she will not be gone forever but until I think she can return without harming others. Tom I know you love your sister but she went too far this time" I nodded knowing he was right.

"I know papa, I am sorry I barged in" he nodded and patted my head.

"I shall accompany you back to breakfast" he wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we went into the parlor silently before exiting to George's chambers where breakfast was being held today.

"Will Catty be okay?" I asked quietly remembering the look of pain on my younger siblings face.

"She will be fine as long as infection does not set it" I nodded fearfully "I am having another doll made for her" Catty loved the doll, she brought it everywhere with her since Cordy gave it to her.

"I hope Bella learns her lesson this time" he took a deep breath.

"As do I, do not tell your siblings about Catty being looked at by the doctor this morning, it will worry them too much" I nodded happy her was entrusting me with something.

"I will not even tell George papa, I swear to it!" He smiled and kissed the top of my head.

"Good boy, I love you Tom" I nodded smiling brightly.

"I love you too papa"

Katherine Boleyn, Princess of Spain, Duchess of Wiltshire

It hurt to have Catalina like this, even worse Isabella being sent away like that last night, so much had happened I barely had time to process it "Thomas can you stay with her, I want to check on Rose" he nodded and took her into his lap and she whimpered. "I shall be back soon mi amor, I just want to see your sister" I left to George's chambers, but was stopped by Lady Hobbs saying that Rose had slept in and was in Cordelia's room still.

"She is moving very slow this morning Your Highness" I nodded dismissing Lady Hobbs and shut the door as Rose sat on the large bed.

"Mi amor" I said sitting down next to her, she started to cry turning into me "it is alright" I whispered into her hair.

"It was scary" I pulled her into my lap and kissed each tear away.

"I swear to you everything is fine, there is no need for you to be scared" I looked into her emerald eyes.

"Promise?" I smiled.

"Promise, Bella is not gone forever and Catalina is fine, she was just very scared and panicked" she snuggled closer to me.

"She scared me so much mama, I thought she had gone mad, it was like she did not even feel the glass in her hands" it made me sick thinking of that.

"The doctor says that happens sometimes, we get so worked up that we do not feel what is happening till later, but like I promised Catalina is fine" she nodded, but her eyes had a far off glaze to them.

"I do not want to go to France mama, I want to stay here with you and papa, I am sorry that I scared you when I said that, it was wrong of me" I swallowed hard, it always frightened me to think that Rose wanted to be with that woman. She was not a good example the way she was living, God knows that Rose's father could be any anyone.

"I am very happy that you want to stay, you are still free to write to her, you can tell her about betrothal to the Earl of Derby's heir, I know that shall make her happy" she pushed her tears away.

"It will, I told her once that I was scared about never being married, that is when she said I could come to France" dam that woman taking advantage of her.

"Well everything is sorted out right now, you have nothing to be scared of, now it is time for you to eat" I helped her off the bed and held tightly to her hand as I walked down the hall to George's room.

Hopefully everything turns out alright, Catalina is frightened now yes, but once the cuts heal everything should go back normal though it will probably be harder getting her out of our bed and into hers. I shall need all the children's help, I pray God that now they shall all behave.

I walked into George's chamber just in time to see Anthony throw a handful of food at William and hit him straight in the chest, they all froze and I shook my head leaving Rose with Lady Hobbs and leaving. Such a silly notion of me to believe that they could behave.

"Sorry mama!" Anthony yelled after me followed by laughter.


Mary did warn Isabella…..but anyway Catalina was attached to the doll very much and I shall explain why! You have to had been paying careful attention in 'This Most Hated Love' when I described the doll. It looks just like Katherine, so in Catalina's young mind the doll represents her mother and that's why she's so attached to it. When she couldn't be with Katherine she had the doll that looked just like her and it made it easier when they were not together. When Bella smashed the doll to her it was like she was hurting Katherine which is why she freaked out so badly. There is a method to my madness lol
