| promptly I looked at the Marquess was she now to be my friend or foe at the present time I could not tell but I was willing to find out. I looked at Henri I felt like I was shrinking in the room with all the faces staring at me. I only like intimate gathering with trustworthy friends what about you Marquess. |

| Isabelle smiled sweetly
Oh I'm very well, Votre Grace. I just came back from Rambouillet to spend time with my family at court. Cause I consider the King, the Queen and Prince Henri like my family. I don't like being alone..
She answered glancing at Henri |

| I let Diane go for a moment and came closer to the Marquess to take her hand and tighten it in mine.
"Our feeling is the same, Marquess" I said gently to her "I feel I can speak for my whole family when I say that we are always very happy and honored when you are here. I've always felt that I could think of you like a second mother. And I must thank you: I know you're a precious support to the Queen. It means a lot to me" |

| Isabelle looked gratefully at Henri. She smiled
Merci, Votre Altesse. You know that you're a son to me. And even if you're not a child anymore, but an handsome and strong man, I'm still here if you need an advice..
She said with soft voice |

| I was still trying to figure out this woman friend or foe was the constant question that kept going around my mind. I certainly did not want a foe but I am sure that what would become of me and Henri and once it was public knowledge their would be those who would want to be rid of me that was just tough luck as I would constantly be at his side now. I gave a look of sympathy to the Marquess which was of genuine purpose everybody needed a family. Then you are indeed lucky that the Royal family are so trusting in you. |

| I could see that Diane was quite suspicious, even though she used polite and kind words with the Marquess... As for me, I trusted Madame de Guise completely and I felt very touched by her words.
"C'est magnifique" I said with a happy smile to both of them "Diane, could you excuse me for a moment? I'd like to invite the Marquess to dance, if she allows me..." |

| I kissed gently Diane's hand "See you very soon" I said to her, letting her hand go "Do not forget me, in the meanwhile" I joked winking at her.
"Madame..." I took gently the marquess' hand and lead her to the dance floor, where we started to dance. |

Isabella saw a woman entering the Hall. She never saw her before. So she decided to welcome her at court. She smiled
Bonsoir, Madame. I'm Isabelle de Guise, Marquess of Rambouillet. Welcome at Palace..
"Bonjour le merci pour l'accueil."
She said with a smile.
Isabelle smiled her back
I never saw you at Place, Madame. What's your name?
She looked noble. That's why she was curious to know who this lady was ""I am Duchesses Janet Stewart de Sutherland."She said softly. |

My uncle once served France" she confessed "he is dead now but he was a good leader and commander of the army" she told her as she spoke of her uncle Cesare Borgia, looking at her she stood there "I trust your Easter is going well." |

| Juana took a seat beside the Queen of France, her attire was a red dress with dark furs upon the collar and shoulders and fur partial sleeves of brown fur with brown patterns upon the sleeves, the furs kept her warm and her long hair was pulled back into a hat which a bonnet covered her hair while her hair was braided around her head while the rest was covered and a red hat was upon her head which pearls dangled off it as her hat was tilted to the side as pearls were on the covering which covered her hair as well, glancing at the Queen she nodded
"Yes music and dancing is a pleasure of mine, I also enjoy Poetry. The arts is a hobby of mine very much so," she told her "although I wish I saw art and poetry more then that of a battlefield, I've seen so much in my years alive." she told her "Once I am Queen, I will put a stop to such blood shed in Naples, I do pray I may succeed with such things as well" she told her, her grandfather the King had been quite ill lately and she was having him cared for quite well and Juana stays with the Queen. |

| We do love the arts here in France and we do have an amazing dancing group that myself put together and when the Marquis of Pembroke was here she also danced with my ladies for my husband. I listerned as she spoke about the battlefield, I was shocked as not many ladies have seen what she has, I was very impressed. The music rang out around the hall and the ladies and gentlemen began to dance, they were light on thier feet and you could hear their dresses swoosing along the floor. I could not help but smile as I watched them. I lean over and whisper to Juana. I pray you will put a stop to the blood shed, There is too much fighting in this world and too much pain and suffering, I wish we could all live in peace. |

| Once the Queen of France mentioned the Marquis of Pembroke, Juana remembered the suffering her cousin had gone through because of that one women, The lady Anne, turning looking at the Queen she looked ahead "Yes she must be quite the beauty, my cousin speaks nothing but sadness knowing she was cast aside for that Boleyn." she spoke bluntly "Catherine of Aragon my cousin had been not well, i've visited her recently and I do worry for her health and for her happiness" she told the Queen, Juana knew the power of her family was great. Listening to her speak of the war and bloodshed she remembered the cruelty of her grandfathers especially Ferdinand I of Naples, his son Alfonso was no better.
turning to her "I've seen the murder of my father, heard the murder of my uncle on the battlefield, the abandonment of myself my mother had to endure. I've been without the love of a mother and father my entire life. My uncle Cesare had my father murdered and when my mother married her third husband my brother Rodrigo and I were abandoned as she was forced to abandon us. my grandfather Ferdinand I of Naples was a mad man, a murderous King and his son a tyrant" she told her "I've seen things a princess should not but I've learned to be a ruler you must be strong, weakness is not something you wish to have" she told her "I will be as strong as my grandfathers but I won't be as cruel as they are" she told her
"I do hope one day even France will wish for peace with Naples, that the battles between France and Spain fighting for Naples will come to a end" |

| When Juana spoke Anne's name I heard a small bit of anger in her words, I turned to look at her and lower my voice so only she can hear. I to am disapointed with King Henry for casting aside the Queen of England and in such a way to bring shame to her and her family, I hope she is well soon and that she keeps her faith as I know the pope will not allow Henry to marry his mistress. My servant arrives and place more wine in our goblets, I nod my head in thanks and turn to listen to Juana talk about her family.
You have been through so much your higness now I know where you get you strength from, I am sure Naples will have a powerful ruler but also with a kind heart. I said with a smile. I am sure my husband would love nothing more then peace between our two nations, Maybe while you are in France you could speak to him. |
