Henry's pov

"Your's as long as life endures." I broke down in tears. How misfortune I am to have so many ill wife's. Why? I know very well that after she is dead they will ask me to marry again...I drank the last of the wine and took of my wedding ring. I looked at it for a brief second before I put it into the glass. Another marriage ruined. I thought about Christine. I have not seen her since Christmas. I hope my boy is alright, I heard that Monsieur Destler is out of town perhaps she can comfort me in my sorrow days. I'll go and see her, Soon.

Cathrine's pov

I stood there preparing for my speech. I don't know if this was my fault or not but I know one thing. I regret marrying Henry. I loved Thomas. He is gone now and soon I will be with him.

"I have come here to die, I die a Queen but I would rather die the wife of Culpepper." I sat down and looked up at the sky, even though it was day the moon was already there. It was beautiful. "Life is very beautiful" I took my last breath as I rested my head on the bloody block just as I had practiced. 
As I was preparing to die memories of me and Henry and Thomas came to my mind, I saw everything.

I took another sigh before it all was over.
