I sat on the padded wooden chair, my dress tight about me and my hands chained together. The desk of this office in front of me, with the two men who would be in charge of my fate on the other side.

Master Cromwell Sat in his large chair, in his usual dark clothes and large fur coat with his chains around his neck, He moved his ring around his finger as he waited.

His Ward and Assistant Master Sadler sat in the chair slightly to the side in his tight black clothes and hat, a quill in his hand and paper on the desk, He wrote the date and location to better aid in filing his paperwork.

Once He finished writing they both looked at me leaving me unable to escape their view.

"If you can be as honest as possible Miss, Leave no stone unturned we need to know every detail," Master Cromwell told me.

"Yes, sir's." I nodded,

"Please state your name for our records."

"Miss Y/n Y/l/n," I answered.

"What relationship were you to the king?"

"I am the king's mistress."

"How long have you been his mistress?"

"Two years now,"

"One of the longer-lasting ones." Master Sadler spoke up from his dictation,

"Not by choice," I answered,

"How so?" Master Cromwell asked,

"When the choice is to open your legs willingly or lose your head." I said, "It sure does make your legs loose."

"Do you know why you have been sent to us?"

"Because the king is afraid."

"Somewhat. if you could please tell us the occurrences on the twenty-third of September."

"Fine." I sighed "On the twenty-third of September the king arrived at the door of my room, he demanded I open the door so I did as he demanded, and he spent the night," I explained.

"We need all the details Miss Y/l/n,"

"He came to my room and demanded to sleep with me. I allowed him of course as I had little choice in the matter. He finished inside me and now I'm here."

"You understand why?"

"Because there's a possibility I could be pregnant."

"Yes, Miss Y/l/n. And the potential of your pregnancy is a matter of state, of the utmost importance and secrecy." He explained, "You will remain here in our care until we know for certain."

"You mean you are to keep me prisoner until I either bleed or until you can cut the bastard out of me."

"In Basic Terms Miss. Yes." Master Sadler told me

"Master Sadler is going to be looking after you, while I continue with the usual duties, you will not argue, you will stay in your room and as soon as this is over you can return home," Master Cromwell told me

"I don't have a choice, do I?"

"No, you don't."

Once the paperwork was done, The Master Sadler boy left his seat and made me walk with him as we headed through the house

"This will be your room, until further notice. I will be delivering your food and doing various tests until this is sorted out." He explained, unlocking the door and opening it to reveal a boring brown room with a grey canopy bed, no windows, a small fireplace and a bathtub in the corner.

"Thank you, Master Sadler." I nodded as I went inside the room nervously

"Just Rafe is fine Miss Y/n. I'm sure we'll be getting to know each other in the coming days," he winked, "I'll bring your dinner later" he said before he shut the door and locked it tight.

I waited here for a good while and soon enough the door unlocked a old woman brought me some food setting it on the table and then left but in the door lingered rafe. He shut the door and leant on it his jacket and hat from earlier gone as he crossed one leg over the other and his arms over his chest tipping his head slightly to the side as he watched me nibble at the supplied food

"Yes?" I asked as I ate

"Lord Cromwell's left," he said "just you, me and maid"

"Good to know" I nodded as I finished up the small amount of food

"You know I kinda think I get it,"

"What?"

'why the king wanted you as his mistress. Your quiet a pretty little thing"

"Thank you I suppose"

"I am sorry about what I'm gonna do, that is a very cute little dress but don't struggle now you'll just make it harder for us both" he said pulling a knife from his pocket immediately I panicked but I did as he asked and didn't struggle he came over pulling me to stand and he used the knife to cut and rip my dress to shreds leaving me completely naked I tried to hide myself with my hands by it was to late as he circled me like a hungry vulture chuckling to himself "I definitely get it" he smirked "you and I are going to have alot of fun these few weeks" he smirked slapping my ass before he left locking my door as he went.
