Ducal Palace

I went into my palace...
My servants came out to greet me...Welcome your grace! Do not comes his wife, the Duchess, with you?.The servants asked me...
I smiled, she is now in Naples, she will come shortly
I told them smiling...I took a cup of wine and I drank a gulp looking out the window

One of my ladies in waiting, said to me that my brother in law the Duke, had returned to Teruel.I still do not know him and I decided to go and visit him and give him my wedding present.A servant anounnced me:
" Her excellency, Lady Catalina de Albret, Duchess of Lorraine and princess of Navarre" .
I entered the room and Ricardo was sitting in a big chair.
He was a lovely man, he had a beautiful smile and eyes of a deep black...
"Your grace....".I said politely greeting him and he kissed my hand with elegance

I was surprised when I saw Lady Catalina.
She was a sophisticated woman, very elegant, very beautiful ...Her manners were exquisite.
She had a very blond hair and a pale skin.She had a great resemblance to her sister Quiteria, but Catalina was more elegant and more adult.
Welcome to the Duchy of Teruel, my lady, it is a surprise to see you here...Do you like a cup of wine?
I asked smiling

Oh yes, my lord...I love the Spanish wine
Catalina said smiling brightly

Ricardo gave her a cup of wine to Catalina and smiled kindly.
Are you going to stay long in Teruel?, Has not come the Duke with you?

my husband is in Lorraine...he is an old man, I have bought a villa here in Teruel, I want to spend a long time here.I want my children come and live here with me.
Catalina said smiling politely.

When the Duke Ricardo died, my lady Quiteria, I and her son we settled in the ducal palace ...
The ducal palace of Teruel was nice...
My lady, Quiteria, Princess of Navarre and Duchess of Teruel, had a cozy bedroom.
I was ordering her dresses when she called me and told me to go home of Cardinal Alonso.
I completed my work and I went home of Cardinal.

Blanca said to me that the Cardinal would come to dinner at the palace.
My servants prepared a delicious dinner. I put on a beautiful dress and the best jewelry of my mother, Queen Catherine of Navarre

I entered to the ducal palace...The palace that was the home of my late brother.I entered to the principal lounge and saw the duchess Quiteria.She was sat presiding at the enormous table.I looked at her with suspicion.
People whispered that my late brother was not the father of her child and for this motive I was feeling rancor towards her...
If my brother was not really the father of her child, I was the real Duke of Teruel.But no one could assure if the rumors were true.I needed to know the truth.
Quiteria, looked at me kindly.She was a beautiful, mysterious and proud woman.
I greeted her politely...
My lady...I said and kissed her hand

eminence. I said, greeting the Cardinal...I feel fortunate for your visit to the palace...Do you like a cup of wine?
I said politely

Yes Quiteria, thanks....and tell me, Are you going your to exercise the government of the duchy until Francis Febus be adult?.
Alonso asked and took a cup of wine in his hands
