Francis POV

It was a long hard battle but we won. We won the battle against the English! Every night I prayed that I would come back to court and everything would be fine. My prayers have been answered and We are riding home. " Every man here, is going to have a feast with me. As soon as we are arrive back to the castle. I want to celebrate this win with beer and amazing food." Bash says as we ride. Soon enough we will reach the castle and I can finally see Lola again. This month away from her has been torture and seeing her again will make me so happy that I will not know what to do. The castle is insight , hearing the trumpets play reminds me of what we spent this entire month working for. Everything is coming together for me, I am about to be a father, we just won a war. The trap doors open and I see a crowd of people cheering but one important person is missing, Lola. I get off of my horse and look around I find Greer and Kenna as they stand together." I thought Lola would be back by now. Have you heard from her?" I ask them with worry in my voice. " Last time we heard from her was before she left. Francis Im sorry she isnt here. She probably was waiting for word that we won and everyone including you were safe. " Kenna tells me as she looks into my eyes ans tells me this. It calms me down for a moment. But that moment slowly fades away as I see Mary and Bash in a loving embrace. That should be me and Lola being all romatic and seeing her again. " Francis, lets go inside. There is a feast waiting for us." Bash says as he guides me towards the castle doors. This feast means nothing without Lola here to be with me. But I must suck it up and go because I don't want to disappoint my brother especially after we just won the war. As well as saving the country. We arrive at the dinning hall doors and where all of the warm food that has been prepared for us by the cooks here in the castle. The table was filled with food I haven't had in a month. Anything is better then what we had to eat. " I would like to make a toast to the men here right now, for not only standing beside me fighting this war but for coming home with me to share in the pride of winning as well. Cheers to you brave, strong men here tonight," Bash tells us all and I soon excuse myself to go back to my chambers to rest.

Mary POV

Ever since Francis has arrived back at the castle he hasn't been himself. It seems like he is distracted o worried about Lola as he should. She is not back yet , even when I wrote to her about the coming back because I would protect her. As I am walking back to my chambers I receive a letter, A letter from Lola. " My dearest Mary, I heard that France has won the war against England. This being that I have decided to come back to French court. French court is now my home especially since my child is the child of Francis. As I was on my back to French Court, I went into labour. I am now currently at a hose my the mill. I dont know if I will make it. If Francis is at the castle, send him my way because I dont know if I will survive. You are my best friend and I want you have to a child of your own one day. Your Friend Lola. I read the words on the paper that Lola touched. This could be the last thingI could see from Lola. I need to go find Francis right now! He needs to know this information. So that he can be with Lola the moment their child comes into the world. I run down the hallway to Francis's room of the castle , trying to find him to make sure that he goes to Lola as soon as possible. " I am here to see Francis, you may leave." I say to his attending guards. I then knock on his door. " Francis, it is urgent." I say then hear the door open. " Mary, what wrong? Is something the matter?" Francis asks as he opens the door quickly. " Its Lola, she wrote me saying that she is at the house by the mill. She is going to give birth soon. You need to go find her, I will have Bash send 2 men to ride out and be with you when come bak if you need." I say as Francis collects his thoughts and runs down the hall but he hugs me first. " Thank you Mary, I will bring Lola back as well as our child." I hear the worry as well as the excitement in his voice. This is a big moment for him, he just won the war with Bash and now he is going to be a father. I close the door behind me as I walk into the throne room and see Bash attending to a Lord that needs his attention. I sit on my throne as I wait for him to come sit with me. Everything is changing at court, Francis and Lola will bring back a baby and I have a secret of my own.
