Then I turned to Lady Anne as the conversation started
"Very good, then send my greetings your father"
"Well Ladies I will let you two in the hands of this young Lord since I have to go to my table and join my wife and my other friends" I bowed my head and left

Nan bowed and smiled after his words and looked around for a second People change, yes. She whispered towards Anne and grinned secretly. Then she turned her eyes to Niklaus again.
Niklaus smiled her back"As I told you..it would be a great honour know you better, lady Nan. It seems that the whole court admires you. And I ask nothing better than admire you too.."He bowed with his head and turned towards Anne Boleyn"Lady Anne..I heard many things about you and I know about your raise. I just wish to myself to kneel in front of your throne soon.."He smiled and kissed gently her hand
Anne smiled at Anthony and she bowed her head kindly
"Send my greetings to your wife my Lord. I would like to meet her"
She bowed again and turned towards Niklaus Petrovin. She did not know this man but the man seemed very young and attractive. Obviously interested in with Nan. Anne watched him when he kissed gently her hand.
"That is very kind of you, my Lord. I hope you've heard good things about me."
She whispered
"Because I hear a lot of false things about me.."

Niklaus smiled at Anne, rather surprised after she whispered"False things? For God's sake..who can say false things about such lovely creature, my lady? If you accept a suggestion, don't pay attention to rumors. People simply envy you, lady Anne. And I envy the King, if you allow me to speak honestly.."He turned his glance towards lady Nan and smiled again. But suddenly he noticed a young, blonde lady entering in the Hall and turned his head towards her. He just bowed with his head and looked at Anne again

Nan was watching their conversation carefully. Niklaus was on really Anne's side or he was just a spy that tests Anne's behaviors. She was not sure. Then she distracted by Niklaus' glance on a blonde lady. She looked at her for a second and looked back at him again. She was one of the new ladies, she guess.

She sipped the cool sweet wine, thankful for the refreshment it brought in the heat of the summer night. Listening to the musicians on lute, drum and flute she nodded her head in time with the music, feeling once again at one with the world.
Anne noticed that a young lady entered the hall. She knew that girl, she was Katherine and Mary's lady-in-waiting. Anne rolled her eyes and she turned towards Niklaus with a smile on her face. She wrapped around the spies.
"You can envy him, he is very successful and handsome king. So are you as I see it"
Emma Moore Lady-in-waiting

Niklaus laughed softly after hearing Anne's words about the King"Oh..there is no doubt he is a successful man, lady Anne. Every man who gets the chance of having you at his side is.."He turned to lady Nan again when he noticed with the corner of his eye that the blonde girl was staring at them"My ladies..if you excuse me.."He kissed Nan's hand again and after bowing he walked towards the blonde girl. He bowed smiling"My lady..you must be new to court, I guess. Let me introduce myself. I'm Niklaus Petrovin, Count of Luga.."He kissed gently her hand
Emma drank her wine and she looked at the young and handsome man. She smiled kindly
"I'm glad to meet you, my Lord. I am Emma Moore. I'm the lady-in-waiting for Queen Katherine and Princess Mary. I was not in the court for a long time.."
Niklaus smiled her back and kissed gently her white hand"It's a pleasure to meet you too, lady Moore. I'm a good guesser..and I guessed you were almost new to this court. Anyway, you're in good company, my lady. Because I come from Russia, and I know very few people here. Maybe...we could help each other.."He grinned and a servant brought him a goblet of wine. He took a sip and looked at her pretty face

Nan watched Niklaus walking to new blonde girl. She took another sip from her wine and nodded to Anne. Yes, he looks nice. She looked around again. They were alone now. She looked back at Anne Come on start telling everything now!

He took a sip and looked at her pretty face
Emma eyed Niklaus from top to bottom. He was very handsome. "Yes, we can help each other. I had only one week before in this court. 6 months ago.."
Nan watched Niklaus walking to new blonde girl. She took another sip from her wine and nodded to Anne. Yes, he looks nice. She looked around again. They were alone now. She looked back at Anne Come on start telling everything now!
Anne giggled and she drank her wine
"I'm moving rapidly towards becoming a queen! The king ordered the preparation of the room for me in White Tower! Each queen candidate stayed there before the coronation ceremony!"
Niklaus smiled her back and kissed gently her white hand"It's a pleasure to meet you too, lady Moore. I'm a good guesser..and I guessed you were almost new to this court. Anyway, you're in good company, my lady. Because I come from Russia, and I know very few people here. Maybe...we could help each other.."He grinned and a servant brought him a goblet of wine.

Emma eyed Niklaus from top to bottom. He was very handsome. "Yes, we can help each other. I had only one week before in this court. 6 months ago.."
Niklaus smiled and continued sipping his wine"Hmm..6 months ago, you said? Oh..I still was in Russia, at that time. I'm here with my sister since two months. And..what about you? Have you siblings here, my lady Emma?"He noticed she had deep eyes and a very elegant figure. Even too elegant for a lady in waiting. He smiled and leaned his hand on the cheminy

"I'm moving rapidly towards becoming a queen! The king ordered the preparation of the room for me in White Tower! Each queen candidate stayed there before the coronation ceremony!" She was very excited.
Nan was all surprised by Anne's words. She looked at her face with excitement. Queen? He is preparing the tower for you? While he still has a queen, but how Anne? She was really confused.Wasnt it too fast?

I went back to my wife, took her hand and said:
"Will you dance with me my love"
I didn't wait for a reply, as the song started I pulled her closer and started to dance
She laughed aloud with joy as they danced, and happiness welled up within her once more as she felt the others' eyes on them, and the room began to spin as she perfectly and gracefully became one with the rhythm. She was aware of how much she missed having fun with her husband, and hoped for the moment to never end.

Royce joined the party after making sure that his wife was alright. Although worried for her pregnancy, he decided to grant some relax to himself. He hardly knew lady Nan, but he bowed and smiled kindly once he saw her talking with King's lady, Anne Boleyn. Looking around he noticed a blonde lady entering in the Hall. She looked rather lost and approached her slowly
