Amelie couldn't hide what she had done anymore. She had to someone, someone that would do anything to save her. That person being her uncle, Stephane Narcisse, she stopped them in the middle of the hall and pulled him into her chambers. "Uncle, I did it, it was me. I poisoned the Queen. I was so jealous and terrified of losing him. I had to get her out of the way! I had to protect my marriage." The tears following from her eyes were both of remorse and of fear. Narcisse the man who had done unbearable things to people couldn't even believe that his niece would do this. He wouldn't even, it was treason, an act that could cost her, her head. "What were you thinking?! She is a Queen Amelie! A QUEEN!! They'll have your head for this! They'll make an example out of you! You foolish girl! Your risking it all for a man who doesn't even return the same feelings for you! I can't protect you from this!! You better hope no one and I mean no one else finds out because there is no saving you if they do!!" He shouts. Amelie just looks at him crying "No one will know, no one. Just you and I. Now please, please tell me what to do?" She begs
Little did they know they weren't alone, Charles had been standing by the door listening with disbelief. His wife murdered his child and hurt his queen. The anger inside him fuming, the hatred beyond disappear. He didn't know that his wife could even be capable of this, but he also knew that he had drove her to it by denying his duties to her as a husband. But none of that matters now, she had committed treason. He came into their view, staring at both Narcisse's calling for the guards. "Guards! Arrest my wif...Lady Amelie Narcisse for treason. And conspiracy to kill the queen of Ireland." Every ounce of coldness in his voice, and the darkness present in his eyes as he stared directly into her soul.
Amelie and Narcisse both stared at the prince in shock while Amelie pulled from the guards. "Charles, Charles please don't let them do this!!" She cries out dropping on her knees in front of him. "Please! You have to understand, I did it for us! So that we could be happy! I didn't mean to almost kill her, just the thing she carried inside her." The tears just kept following trying to justify what she has done like it could make anything better. Charles knelt down in front of her, looking straight into her eyes. "Oh no Amelie, you deserve your head taken from you. Just like you had taken everything from me. And when they have your head on a spike on the castle for everyone to see. It will fill me with so much joy. I did love you at one point. But you ruined all of that. Not her. I could have stayed away to protect her, and be happy with you. But then you almost took her away from me, you took my baby from me! There is no love for you Lady Amelie only hate and disgrace that you were ever my wife. I could take your head right now, but I will have to wait. I'm sorry Cupcake will have a few words to say to you before she watches them take your head with pleasure. See you in hell lady Amelie." He smirks motioning for the guards to take her away as he turns to Narcisse.
"Get out of my sight before I have you charged as treason as well." With that Narcisse quickly walked out of his chambers listening to his niece screams and cries. Nothing could save her now. Nothing at all. And soon heads would roll, and revenge would be taken.
The news of Amelie being responsible had made its way to Madeleine before Charles could even give her the word. In an instant she was out of her chambers and in the Dungeon to deliver the punishment to the foolish girl herself. All eyes were on her except Amelie's, she couldn't even look at the queen.
Madeleine just stared at her for a good while before speaking. " You dare poison a Queen?! You dare risk your head?! You killed an innocent life! All because I had the love of your husband but you could not?!" She spoke with anger in her voice kneeling to Amelie's level. "Let me tell you this lady Amelie, if your blood doesn't spill here in France, then I will take your head in Ireland. And when the axe rises and falls, there will be great joy that justice has been served. And I how when you are up there just before the axe falls you will see me smirking in your face. Because not only will I be a queen, I will have your husband. A man who will be mine as soon as you are gone. You should have never crossed me Amelie. But you foolish girl, cost yourself your head over nothing!" She spat at her angrily walking out with such Grace only a queen can have. People in love do foolish things, things that could cost them everything.
