Harry came to my room that evening. He seemed uneasy when he entered.

"What is wrong my dear husband ?" I ask with sincerity.

"There has been talk of infidelity in the castle," he responded distantly.

The room seemed to cave in as if every corner was closing in on me.

"Do you know of the suspects ?" I ask nervously.

"No, nobody can tell me who they are. There are so many people at court, plus they do not have evidence of the infidelity. They have no proof as of yet,"

"As of yet ? I do sincerely hope they find these adulterers. Are you sure it is none of the servants ? Their living quarters are quite close to one another and who knows what they do when we are not around ?" I tred lightly and try to direct my infidelity to another.

"Ah, enough of the adultery matters. I just sincerely hope you would never do that to me, I would never do that to you. Plus if you had to your head would be on a pike and we do not want that now do we ?" He moved in closer to me as he spoke the truthful words. If a Queen ever committed adultery they would lose their head. It's dishonourable to the King and the Kingdom. Thinking about losing my head left a bad taste in my mouth.

" Business,we should begin," I say to him.

He laid me down on the bed and we started our business venture. I tried my utmost best to please the king and to sound pleased by him.

The next morning.

Harry and I laid there. Still. My head rested on his bare chest. My head lifted up and down to the rhythm of his breathing. Slowly. He looked down at me, I looked to face him as I felt his sleepy gaze pouring through the back of my head. His eyes were green, much greener than before. He smiled and kissed my forehead. He then placed two fingers on my lips as his thumb held my chin up gently. He placed a soft kiss on my lips. I still thought of Louis.

The guards barged through the doors.

I covered myself quickly.

"Your majesty there is news that must be discussed immediately,"

"I will be there soon,"

"Pardon your highness and I shall see you soon my Lord," Niall apologises for the interruption.

As he leaves Harry starts to climb out of the large bed.

"Harry," I pull him back and lay him on the bed.

I hop onto him and whisper "me turn, it'll only be a few moments, then you can return to your duty"

He smiled at the hold I had on him.
