Queen Amelia's bedchamber

Your Majesty,

I wish to welcome you into our family. Although you are nearly 10 years younger than me, I do hope that we can become fast friends. I wish you and my father many sons and daughters and a life filled with much happiness.

Humbly,

Princess Francesca (soon to be Queen of Navarre)

As I find the queens chamber I knock on the door

Amelia was getting settled in her new chambers, placing books on their shelves, making the room her favorite color, just so the room felt more of her own. She then heard a knock, she answers the door and her surprise her friend Cordila had finally come to visit.

"Cordy! Your here! Please come in." she said with great excitement.

Smiles as I curtsy Majesty I say beaming i hope you do not mind me visiting I just arrived

"of course not, Im overjoyed you are here" she said as she stopped everything she was doing and took her hands and led her to the sofa. "Tell me, how was your journey?" she asked making small talk although dying to know about her engagement.

Smiles as she takes my ha d it has been way too long that I have seen my friend look at you Queen of Italy as I giggle my journey was very short I was in Naples for the wedding I had to see him marry, and hopefully my wedding will be next smiling you do know that the King of Naples well before he was King asked his brother if he could marry me, but then his sister arrange there marriage to Sancha and nothing else but the man am to many is called Edward, and he is also a illegitimate child. He is tall with brown curly hair and soft brown eyes.

Amelia smiled as her friend said she was engaged. "Oh Cordy, i'm so happy for you, But do you love him? What about your Lancelot where has he gone?" She asked worried Cordelia would be caught in a loveless marriage.

I look at her and smile Lancelot will always be in my heart, but father would ever allow us to marry. I do believe that I am in love with Edward. Now tell me more about your King I say smiling

Inge knocked softly at the door and waited for an answer in silence

"Your Majesty...may I come in?"

Amelia had released her servants so she could take nap, this pregnancy was really taking it's toll on her. As she was about to lay down she heard a knock and Inge's voice behind the door.
"Inge, what brings you up here?" she asked "Come in I could use some company" she said as she rubbed her swollen belly and walked toward the sitting area.

Inge entered in the room after hearing Amelia's permission and curtsied

"Your Majesty..."

She tried to smile and looked at her best friend's face

Amelia noticed the tone in her friends voice "Inge, what's wrong?" she asked concerned.

Inge raised from her curtsy and looked at Amelia. She was pale

"Your Majesty..I need talking with you. There is something you should know. Before...before you learn it from someone else.."

She said and gulped hardly. She was trying to avoid her glance
