Lost Princess

Fifteen

Anastasia watched as the women find their suitor. Kenna saw her best friend and walked to her as did Francis. Ana saw the fear in Kenna's eyes causing her to walk to her along with Francis. "Kenna, what happened?"

"I don't want to talk about it." She tells them. "I hope I don't ever run into him again."

Ana and Francis looked at one another. "Kenna, why don't you go find yourself a good suitor." Francis suggested. "Maybe the person that you were seeing will leave you alone once you find someone that will treat you right."

The blonde took her hands with a smile. "We are speaking as friends here, not as your king and queen. I always wanted you to find someone that will make you happy. Maybe one of these gentleman could be it."

"Thank you, Ana, but I think I'm going to go lay down."

Nodding, they watched her walk away. Francis put his hand on the bump that was growing by the months. "You shouldn't be worrying about anything. Kenna is a grown woman who doesn't need to hide behind her queen."

"I know. I was the only one who would listen to her." She saw Henry and knew he did something. "Francis, let's go lay down."

"Sure my dear."

Francis laid beside his wife as a knock was heard. He got up and opened it to see a lot of women. "I'm married to the one woman I want..."

"We know that your highness. Your love is pure." One said.

"We actually got some gifts for the heir." Another said.

"We also want Queen Anastasia's advice when picking a good man. Seeing as she picked you."

Anastasia smiled at them. "Okay, but I am not stressing."

"Can we set the gifts in here...."

"I'll have the guards help me put them up." Francis tells them as he looked at his wife. "Go help them find husbands, my love."

"I'll see you in a bit."

Francis watched as they laid the gifts for the heir down. He hopes it's a boy. Yet, he would love the baby if it was a girl as Elizabeth 1 is the first heir of England. All because her sister refused to sign the death warrant before she died.

Looking at the gifts, he went and got Bash and Philip to help him set up the nursery for his child. A little surprise to Ana. Looking at the room that was connected to their room. Older women has offers to watch after the young highness, but Ana and him has spoken about it. They will tend to their child.

After helping, Francis ran to find his wife and saw her introducing a man to one of the women. He saw how he respected her and was shocked. "None of them tried anything. They knew she was your wife and only yours." Mary tells him.

"I was never worried. Ana is nothing like others and I would never sleep around either." He replies as Ana saw him and excused herself. "She's the only wife for me."

"Hey, what have you been doing?"

"You're about to see." He tells her as he covered her eyes as Kenna and Greer grabbed her hands.

"Where are we going?"

"You'll see."

As they walked through the hall, the visitors followed. Catherine and Henry saw them and smiled as Francis guided them into the room right beside their's. Uncovering her eyes, she saw the nursery setup. Looking at her husband, she didn't know what to say. "Francis...."

"See that door?" She nodded. "Leads right into our room. When the baby is born, we will make sure that he or she can be heard by us."

"You're respecting our wishes to tend to the child?" He nodded. "Oh, Francis. I love you."

"I love you."

Everyone watched as Francis guided Ana around the room. Showing the closet full of baby clothes and clothes for diapers. The room had everything and that made the couple happy and impatient for their heir to be born.
