Middleham Castle, February 1466.

4 months later.

After the execution of Margaret of Anjou during the previous month of October England had never known peace like that one they now enjoyed for a peaceful period of four months.

But the real excitement which had retained on everyone's lips was the queen.

She was now coming into the ninth month of pregnancy without any complications. Amongst the world that was a rarity and most took it as sign that their queen was about to deliver them a price.

The people of England called the child the golden prince of England.

As their king and queen brought nothing but peace and prosperity during their reign. Many took it as a sign from god that this child would bring England riches beyond their dreams.

So many that it would cover the city of London in gold from head to toe.

After the celebrations of Christmas passed merrily the king and queen had not spent a day apart from each other.

Many noble lords would chatter in their secret circle wondering how the king had not lain with any woman but the queen for such a long time.

For a king it was expected to take a mistress when the queen was expecting.

But as rumours of court never truly stay a secret. The very same day it had reach Edwards ears he was standing beside his brother George and Richard.

Some servants swore that the laugh of the king could be heard through London once the rumour reach the ear of the king.

As for the queen, Alyssia knew that if she kept up her routine of daily exercise and wholesome diet that she was already consuming her child would be healthy.
