The situation is very complicated, mi amore. Queen Katherine is confined at Kimbolton Castle..and she can receive only few people. Isabella is her relative, so she should be allowed to see her. But..this makes things even more cruel, since she can't see her own daughter Mary..

He raised his eyes to ceiling and then he continued to explain

My cousin Aurora has been poisoned. We still don't know who did this..but Aurora has a suspect. She fainted suddenly while I was talking with her in the garden. Thank God lady Inge knew an antidote and saved her life..

Isabella quickly turned to leave the great hall with her ladies in waiting with her. She was not happy at the way Anna snapped at her. And it showed in the way she walked and the way her body moved.

Richard noticed that Isabella left the Hall. He frowned, but at the same time he took Anna's hand and brought her at the centre of dancefloor. They bowed and started to dance as the music started

I'm not a good dancer too..but I like to try. It seems..that someone got angry because of your words..

Anna rolled her eyes she was pretty much growing weary of all the drama. Clearly she over reacted I just corrected her that is all. A mere correction I have seen children behave much better. But I will tell you this trying to make me feel bad about it aint gonna work. I'm very tired and I do not need a lecture I bid you a good day sir. So much for a new year without any drama.

I tutted loudly, the fate of a rightful princess now wqits in the hands of her father.
A dangerous game the king plays one visit to see her mother couldn't hurt if well guarded.
Being optimistic couldn't hurt and I only ever voiced these opinions with my husband. At the mention of poison in this very palace stilled my appetite. If Aurora had done wrong than she was only human people made mistakes.
I am sorry to hear this darling. It's always horrible when this sort of thing happens. At least she has you, it's a bit... alarming. What with the Cardinal and Thomas More being poisoned.
It was like an attack on the Catholics. I placed a kiss on his cheek, my fingers tied firmly but gently around his.

Inigo smiled after she kissed his cheek. His arm still around her waist

Ambassador Chapuys let me know that King Henry fears that Katherina and Mary could plot against him. That's why he wants to keep mother and daughter parted from each other. And about Aurora..she was lucky. Because she really risked her life. But the poisoning of Thomas More and Cardinal Fisher in England..was a different matter. Nobody knows yet..but surely Boleyns plotted against them. Sometime court can be a dangerous place, my love..

He added with a deep sigh

I'm not trying to make you feel bad, Anna. I just noticed what just happened. I'm not saying that you did something wrong. I'd be here dancing with you..otherwise?

He added with a deep sigh

I had never felt unsafe at a court before. A mother and daughter could still plot whether parted or together. I had a different notion as to why the king was keeping them apart.
Perhaps my love perhaps. But, I think Henry Tudor is keeping them parted to prove a point to the Boleyn girl. Do we support Katherine and Mary in secret or in public.
Their was no such thing as "Divorces" it was against catholic church. And I wouldn't want to make an enemy with the pope.

Inigo sighed and shrugged

King Henry knows that we support Katherine, my love. Since I'm Emperor's Ambassador, we have no other choice. But he seems to respect who has a different opinion about his new marriage. For now, at least. So we have nothing to fear, my beloved Francisca..

He smiled warmly and kissed his wife's cheek

I led him over to an abandoned table much more private for us to talk.
I worry for Diego he shouldn't be caught up in all this political nonsense.
Taking his hand I began to rub it smoothly helping to release some of my tension.
Do you have a plan of action when we go to see queen Joanna. We could take her some Bavarian wine with cheese.

Inigo sat at the table with his wife and nodded after her words

Absolutely. We'll bring her some useful gift to show her our support. But I don't think we should worry about Diego, my love. His life is not in danger. He may be young..but he is a clever boy. Moreover, Emperor Charles would never harm his own Ambassador's son..

If we could give her news about her sister, that nobody else knew, then that might make her happy. A useful gift would be the wisest to give.
Even in a roomful of people it still felt as though we were the only two here.

Inigo nodded while pouring her some wine

I agree with you, my love. She needs to receive news about her sister. And anything else can be useful to her. You'll see..I feel this will be a very useful mission. Probably Emperor Charles will unlock her from the nunnery..

He added hopefully, smiling at her. Even if they were talking about politics, he wanted she enjoyed the festivities

This is going to be an amazing journey for us both. Can we visit portugal too, I want to be able to give young Beatrice a full report on our return.
I smiled as I watched his eyes twinkle from the candles on our table. I took in the festive ongoings in a reserved manner it was all so different from Spain much more reserved.[/color]

Portugal? Yes, we can also visit Queen Catherine, if you wish. And maybe we can spend time for ourselves, far from political matters. You always have lovely ideas, my love..

He looked back into her eyes at candle light

Their are many queens, kings and gentry for us to meet when we are away. I would like to go to Portugal for our break. If you think about it mi amore nobody shall be their as they will all be in Spain.
I was rather eager to go so I could spy for Beatrice. I hoped to stay out the way while Inigo did all the politican things.

I see you thought about everything, mi amore. Then yes, we'll do as you wish. I really need a vacation, actually. Now that Princess Isabella is in Spain, political scenario will be different, I guess..

He said thoughtfully, but still smiling at her. He admired Francisca greatly, cause he knew it was not easy being an Ambassador's wife

I glanced at my husband curiously. Wasn't it want people wanted their empress back with her emperor.
How will things change politically, Mi Amore. You shall have to explain as I'm not used to all these politics. Do we have to live back in Spain again is that what you mean?
As much as I adored my hometown their were too many kings,queens and Emperors. It all become rather confusing with a lot of imbreeding with bloodlines.

Inigo took a breath before replying

It is possible, Francisca. Probably my presence will be needed more in Spain rather than here. My cousin Queen Eleanor is there. And since my friend Chapuys is at Queen Katherine's side, maybe Queen Joanna will ask me to stay in our country home..

He took another deep breath, then he shrugged and lowered his voice

Even if..this would be a problem. I promised to Princess Isabella to watch over her son and her sister Beatrice. And I'm a man of honour, mi amore. I would never want not keeping a promise..

I didn't want to leave lovely Beatrice here. I had grown very fond of the girl and I to wanted to make sure she was ok.
Yes I adore young Beatrice aswell, Mi amore. I would never reveal any of her secrets but I would let you know if she was in trouble.
I ran my hand along his beard holding his chin in my hand.
You are my honourable man we shall find a solution together like we always do.

Inigo smiled lovingly as she held his chin caressing his beard. He took her hand and kissed it deeply

Of course..we still don't know where my presence is needed most. But in the meanwhile, let's focus on ourselves, my Francisca. I just want you to relax, you shouldn't be too much involved in political matters. You know, I enjoy treating you like a Queen..

He smiled leaning softly his hand against her cheek

I only had a natural liking to politics because where ever Inigo went I went to.
I'm not involved I just want a final place for us to stay awhile. Not all this moving around the place does the king know of our plans.
I asked hoping he wouldn't mind my husband leaving court for awhile.

I couldn't think of a much better way to spend the upcoming summer than back in Spain. This would be a very special visit for Inigo as it had been many years since he was home. So much had changed, people were thinking for themselfs and not by what others told them to believe.
I shall make you rest mi amour. It is you who needs to take rest and enjoy being back home in our land. I shall simply enjoying being in your company and the Spanish sun upon me once more.

As you wish, mi amore. I would stay here listening you for hours, my Francisca. Your voice and your accent always drove me crazy. If you were an Ambassador, I'm sure Kings and Emperors would follow your advices, only because bewetched by your voice..

He laughed again and kissed deeply her hand
