Lost Princess

Three

A few days later, Anastasia had found her a spot and started reading the Romanav history book. She was curious about their story. Francis found her reading a book and walked to her. She felt lips on her neck. "Francis..."

"I know." He says as he looked at her. "I can't help it."

The blonde looked at him before kissing him. Francis stood her up and sat down as he pulled her into his lap. "Francis, this book I found on the Romanav family, why does it mention a princess? I never heard of the princess."

"She's missing, been missing since her parents died. Her brother is alive and will be here for an arrangement to find his sister. He refuses to believe she is dead." He tells her. "Mother told me that when I was little I used to run and play with this beautiful blonde girl, then she suddenly left."

"You liked her?"

"Yeah, but now, I have you. You put me to mind of her." He tells her. "Come on, it's getting late and we need sleep."

Anastasia smiled as they shared one last kiss. He guided her to her room. Francis looked at her as he didn't want to be apart, but this girl, she managed to get to him. "Francis?" He looked at her. "Good night."

"Good night."

Kissing him goodnight, she headed inside. Francis groaned as he wanted more, but he wants to make it special. Kenna watched him walk away causing her to run and knock on the door. "Open up, Ana. It's me, Kenna."

Anastasia opened the door letting Kenna ran in. "You and Francis?"

"Shut up, Kenna." She tells her. "He told me he likes me and we are getting to know one another."

"I think he is in love with you because his father is going to find a way for you two to get married...."

"The King? How do you know this?" The blonde couldn't believe it. "You are sleeping with Francis' father?"

"Sorry." She tells her. "But Francis really likes you and actually wants to marry you." Kenna tells her. "He thinks you are truly royal."

The blonde didn't know what to say. "Will you stay here and the two of us can talk."

"Sure."

Francis saw Anastasia with his little brother. He saw how Charles was with the blonde. Philip saw them. "Charles loves being with her."

"Yeah. I do too. Mother and father are trying to find a way for me to marry her."

Mary saw the blonde and grabbed her hand. "I need your help, Ana. You are the only one that may help me with my country. It's been told the king has taken a liking in you as Francis seems to always be around you. So you might help me."

The blonde looked at Charles. "I'll play with you in a bit. Let me see what is going on." He nodded as he walked away. Anastasia looked at her. "Mary, you are the queen. I don't care what your uncle wants. You have to act like a queen and get Henry to give you the companies, if he doesn't, then you better think of another way. Henry is a very hard headed man. He doesn't give in that easy to help." She saw Francis and Philip looking at them. "Maybe get Philip to help you. He knows his father better than we do."

"Will you still be there?"

Anastasia smiled. "Of course. I've been by your side for a long time."

Francis watched the two walk over to them causing him to link his arm with Anastasia's as they walked towards the room his father was in. "Let them do the talking."

The blonde stopped as Philip and Mary went in to talk. Looking at him, Anastasia kissed him before running off. He laughed as he ran after her.

Charles found Anastasia after Mary started talking to a man. He walked over to her. "Anastasia, will you read to me?"

Looking up from her book, she smiled. "Of course, Charles." She tells him as she patted a spot beside her.

Francis was looking for Anastasia and found her with his little brother. Catherine walked out from behind him to see Charles with Anastasia. "Francis, we are still trying to find a way for you to marry her. I think, to keep her from Mary or the others trying to find her a suitor, I think you need to have her lose her virginity so she will forever be yours."

"Mother, I really want to help her find her family. Something is telling me that she is the lost princess." He tells her. "I want her to be my queen. I just need to find out who her family is."

"And you will." She tells her son. "She will be an amazing wife and queen."

That night, Anastasia sat at the table with her friends as Francis looked at her. Nostradamus walked over to the girls as Mary walked in with Philip. "Mary, come have a seat."

Mary walked over to them and sat down beside Ana. Nostradamus looked at the blonde as he kept having these visions of the lost princess herself, but she has been with Francis and she conceives very soon. "Why don't you tell them their future?" They heard Henry tell them. "Starting with Anastasia."

The blonde looked at them confused. Nostradamus nodded as he made his way to the blonde herself. "I need to speak to you alone. It's something you should know."

Anastasia nodded and followed him leaving her friends and Francis to be worried and confused. "What's wrong?"

"You future holds the answer you have been looking for, you will get to marry Francis, but we have a special guest coming. Someone from your family. Once he sees that necklace, he will know who you are." He tells her. "You have been special all this time and no one noticed, but Francis."

"What else did you see?'

"You and Francis conceiving very soon."

Nostradamus walked away leaving the blonde to herself. Francis saw her and walked over to her. "Love?" She looked at him. "Are you okay?"

Smiling, she walked over to him and kissed him. "I'll be perfectly fine." She says against his lips. "As long as you are here with me."

"Always." He promised as he kissed her.

Philip and Catherine wondered what Nostradamus told her, but found her with Francis. "Whatever it was, it was good news." She tells her son. "Now, go enjoy yourself. Mary is looking for another suitor."

Philip didn't say a word as Mary done told him she didn't want to marry him, but he knew sooner or later, she will realize her true feelings.
