You ride for what seemed like hours, trying everything to get free, but the guards have a grip on you similar to the jaws of life. It started raining hard, everyone is soaking wet. Finally you arrive at your destination. The moon is just so that you could tell it was a large building.

You Where are we?

Guard: The royal court of France, your grace.

You knew you couldn't fight, so you unwilling do as the men say and follow them into what looks to be a throne room. There's a tall man wearing an elaborate night robe, a women in the same type of dress. The man talks to the guards and by the way they are addressing him you quickly realize he's the King.

Guard: A copy of her birth certificate, your majesty. My men found it among the other documents at the convent during the attack.

Henry looks over it and seems pleased. Just then two more guards come in to the room, trying to drag a man who had obviously been sleeping not long before he had been woken up by them. The man looks about your age and not happy about his sudden wake up call.

Henry: Francis!

Francis: Father?

Francis notices you're in room

Catherine: Henry do we really need to do this right now.

Francis: Father? What is all this?

Henry: This is Y/N? Your bride.

Francis: My what?

You're so stunned you can't speak.

Henry: You are going to be Wed. Now

Francis: Now?

A priest enters the room.

Henry and Francis go back and forth, getting into a heated argument. But like all fights the King always wins. 

Francis moves closer to you. The priest does the same. You're in a daze, not believing what is happening.

Priest: Will Bride and Groom join hands.

Francis gently grabs your hand. The priest says a few things, before directing his question to you. You can't speak.

Priest: Just answer "I Will"

You: I will.

Now directing the same question to Francis.

Francis: I will.

You both bow down and sign your marriage contract. Francis puts a ring on your finger.

Priest: By the power vested in me by God. I now pronounce you Husband and Wife.
