It was the day after Edward announced his marriage to Elizabeth. Now he must introduce her to his entire family, and his court of course. As I got ready to accompany my daughter on her journey to becoming the Queen Of England.
'Never in a lifetime did I think I was gonna become the Queen Of England.'
'Or that my children might one day rule the country their father fought hard to get.' Now I can only pray this ride will be bumpy, but I can also pray along the Journey that we won't find a volcano.
Today I will meet with The King's most trusted servants. No one is really happy about this marriage. They were furious to find out the king had taken a peasant as his wife, even angrier that they didn't get a big wedding. Which it really isn't any of their business.
There were already Horses outside by the time I had finished getting ready. My whole family was to accompany me to meet Edward at the Palace.
My brother's had ridden ahead of us to get there first, and to make sure there weren't people ready to attack me there. I prepared myself for the name calling, that I will have to accept.
We arrived at last to the Palace. As I got off my horse anyone who had common sense would Bow Down. That included my Father, John and of course Antony. They bowed Down alright, "Antony."
"I'm sorry sister."
"Sorry for what exactly." I giggled in a fun way, I was only playing with my brother. But he was in the wrong for believing Edward has just been using me for my body, or to get me in bed.
"For being too quick to judge the king...., and for calling you names."
"You can stay down there." I laughed.
A few seconds past and "get up."
"Thank You sister." Just then was when we heard voices behind us, not very kind voices. "Slut!"
"Whore"
"Stupid Peasant" Antony quickly tried to stop them, but my mum stopped him before he could do anything. "Antony we must let them speak. Of course their angry this news popped in their faces out of nowhere. We must expect things like that since we had a private wedding."
As soon as Edward heard we had arrived he came outside, down the stairs, and up to me. "Hello Elizabeth."
"Good Morning Edward." I smiled, I completely forgot about the scene that had just happened as I fixed my eyes on the man who stood in front of me.
"May I introduce you to my family, Queen Elizabeth?"
"Your the King why should you ask questions." We walked over to the stairs, where Edwards Brothers and Sisters Stood. His cousins, their Children.
"This is my sister, Mary." I smiled at her and simply said "Hello"
"This Is my Brother George."
"Nice to meet You Elizabeth." You might wanna him, he plays a major role in the rule of Edward IV.
"This is my Younger Brother Richard."
"Hello, lovely to finally meet you." Richard will go From a Duke to King, he also plays a major role in the rule of Edward IV.
"This is my cousin you've already met him Richard Neville, His Wife Anne. Along with his two children Isabel and Anne." The Neville's will be the cause of trouble in this Court. Richard Known as the King maker puts Edward on the throne, but Takes him off of it too. Ruining the futures of his 2 daughters.
From Richard's Point Of View
That whore, using herself as a weapon to get onto the throne. Will I be surprised if she turned out like Margaret Of Anjou, not at all. My aunt will not accept, not today not any day. Let's see how long she stays on the throne before it kills her.
"That my wife is the one I was talking about. She had control over Edward, she will only use him to get on the throne."
"I see" Edward Seemed to be proving useless as a king.
I walked through the halls of the palace. Very beautiful, I was about to go meet with the Duchess of York. The one and only, Edward's Mother.
Me and my mother, along with my new ladies walked into the room together. The cleared my throat to get her attention.
Her ladies quickly got off of her and Bowed Down. Or may I say Courtesy.
She looked at me stone cold, "I am not happy with this marriage."
"I am not happy with this marriage."
"I would not expect you to be happy, Cecily. But it has happened and there is nothing we can do to change it." My mother spoke her mind.
"They had a secret wedding!"
"It was a Private Wedding."
"A private Wedding" she fixed her eyes on my mother, looking at her with only death in her eyes.
"Yes, I was there as a witness. For why your son did not invite you is not our concern. Perhaps you should talk about that with your son."
"You witch."
"How dare you speak to me in that way. You think your so powerful now that your daughter is married to my son."
"I could easily replace Edward, and Take him off the Throne! I could replace him with the rightful heir my beloved George." Now that was something to talk about Cecily.
"Did I hear that right. You know when Edward was born I heard rumors that he was illegitimate. Since the presumed father had arrived to find his wife pregnant while he was abroad. I would hate to find out that those rumors were true."
My mother took a few more steps toward Edward Mother. "What you just said makes me think Edward is not your Husbands Child. If that were to come out, your image would be ruined."
"Leave, I do not wish to have you here." She turned away, and her servants were unsure of what to do.
I wasn't gonna let her off the hook so easily so...
"I'm sorry, but when you are in the presence of a Queen. I believe you have to courtesy." I smiled wickedly at the woman.
She seemed to refuse, but as time passed she got up slowly. Rustling noises were heard, and she bowed down.
It was until then where I was satisfied with my work. And I walked out of the room, away from her presence and back in the presence of my husband.
Now that the whole world Knew, my Coronation will start getting planned. Edward had told the me the sooner I get crowned Queen the better.
I head to my chambers, where I am to sleep with my husband.
"Hello my dear Husband." I walked into the room where Edward was lying in bed.
"Hello My Queen." He got off the bed and walked over to me smiling.
He started untying my hair, which followed with him removing my clothes. I could only do the same to him. As we removed each other's clothes, we locked eyes.
I mean we had to start making heirs for England soon, so why not do it now.
We lay in bed, just cuddling with each other. I could not wish for a better life. "Well Edward let's hope my body is ready to start making beautiful babies."
"Elizabeth, your body will make only the finest there is. You are too much of a beauty for our children to not inherit it."
"I can say the same for you my king." We giggled through the night. Only to wake up the next morning with Edward by my side. My morning was already starting off great. But of course Edward had to leave at some point. A king's duty of course, I better get use to it.
"Your leaving already?"
"Of course I am, we must get ready for breakfast." Of course, I forgot about breakfast. I will now Dine with my husband every morning. I have married one of the most Charming men in the world.
As Lucky In Love, as he is in battle. Well said...
