France

Anne enjoyed spending time with her kids. "Mama, will father come?" Anne didn't know how she could make something so gentle. Christiana was the sweet-tempered child Anne had ever met. The pain of missing her children in England. She hadn't turned her back on them. She would pick out the gifts the ambassadors would give to them. 

"I don't know." Anne couldn't help but smile at her. Lousia kept playing with her fingers. She missed her daddy. "Will we have more siblings?"  Lousia was the straightforward one. The governess and the ladies held shocking facial expressions. Anne just smiled at her daughter. "I don't know. Do you want more?" Jean approached his mother and placed his head on Anne's lap. "Not if it put you in danger." Jean was the pious one. It was amusing in the courtiers of France's eyes. Everyone knew Francis was a Libertine for pleasure.

So how could Jean be so pious? Anne rubbed her fingers through his head. "I am touched by your concern, my son." She loved all her children equally. She hoped someone would love her son, not for him being royalty but for himself. 

"How are your studies?" Francis and Anne had been arguing. He wanted allies, and the best way was marriage alliances. She would have to send her daughters away. She didn't like to send her daughters away. Three marriage plans were in action. 

England

Jane Seymour sits on a dais beside Henry. There wasn't doubt in Jane's mind Henry was searching for a new skirt to be interested in. She would keep quiet. It was a good wife do. Jane wanted a love like her parents.

Her father John was excited when the king started courting her. Jane was happy. Jane had thought she was supposed to be his mistress. Jane was supposed to be his Guinevere and he was her sir loyal heart. Her fairytale in their marriage was over. 

Henry wanted a child from her. Henry was too prideful to admit that he made a mistake. How long before he decided marrying Jane was a mistake. Jane felt pressured. Her family was pressuring. 

Jane followed Henry's eye to a young girl in a French dress. He wouldn't. Henry got of the dais and walked over to her. Jane liked it when Henry kept his affairs private despite the court gossiping. Now, He was flirting with this girl in front of her.

Charles Brandon watched as Henry flirted with the girl in front of Jane. The last time Henry flirted openly was with Anne in front of Katherine. Charles recognized the girl as Thomas Howard's niece.

Charles looked at the two men who shamelessly smirked back at him. Thomas Boleyn was out for revenge. He would have it. Thomas wasn't a fool. He wouldn't dare go after the king, but he would plot against some people in the court like they had plotted against him.

Edward Seymour watched as the king danced with Katherine. His sister would endure it. Anne Boleyn in France didn't help. Princess Charlotte of France was promised to Ferdinand's heir. It was shocking.
