What if Henry VIII had married differently? What if his choice of wives changed his reign and the whole of England's history forever?
A young man sits on the throne of England with a face and charm that draws woman from all corners of the kingdom. There are those with years of training and tutoring in their heads: there are those with no plan but themselves; there are those who only see the empty throne and themselves to fill it.
Henry VIII needs a Queen. He needs a son. He's the King of England. He always gets exactly what he wants.
This time, he wants the woman of his dreams. Well, maybe two or three.

A Fortress of Feathers
In a kingdom ruled by men, a young Spanish woman is handed over to England to be the Tudor's new toy, and eventually, the queen. This woman is Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII. Her journey began long before her marriage and ascension to queen, and ended long after she was replaced by the infamous Anne Boleyn. Her story is often overshadowed and forgotten, but she may be one of the most remarkable women of her time. In the royal court, the walls have ears, and the loyalties of the servants and spies determines who really rules the kingdom. Watch through the eyes of one of Catherine's most trusted maidservants and whisperers, and observe the glamorous world of Catherine of Aragon and her downfall at the hands of lust and love. HISTORICAL DISCLAIMER-- This story is backed by history, though there are many characters of my own imagination. The four maidservants are characters that I created, however, places, events, and many other things are true. If you see an error, ask me about it and I will tell you if it was meant to be that way or not.Concluida
The Six
'Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived." In this way, the six wives of Henry VIII were remembered not for how they lived, but in the way they died. It is impossible to know exactly what they were thinking or had to go through, in having to marry this larger-than life King, so assured of his own rightness. It is impossible to know what their last thoughts were. But we can guess, and infer. Because these six women weren't simply paper-thin, flat cut-outs from hundreds of years ago; they were unique, and each had their own strength, and each had the fate to marry King Henry VIII, and dance around this large maypole. *Shorts on the six wives of Henry VIII; their lives, their deaths*Concluida
Enthralled - A Tudors Fanfic
In the glittering halls of Tudor England, where ambition and desire entwine, a new force arrives to disrupt the fragile balance of power. Lady Vittoria de' Medici, a radiant beauty from the illustrious Florentine dynasty, is sent to Henry VIII's court with her brother to negotiate a trade alliance. With her sharp wit, refined elegance, and beguiling charm, she quickly becomes the centre of attention in a realm already ablaze with political and romantic intrigue. For King Henry, embroiled in a tempestuous relationship with Anne Boleyn, Vittoria is an irresistible distraction-a woman who embodies the sophistication and allure of a world beyond England's shores. For Anne, Vittoria is both a threat and a mirror, reflecting the precariousness of her own position as Henry's affections waver. As Vittoria navigates the treacherous waters of court politics, she must balance her family's ambitions with her own desires. Torn between duty and the unexpected stirrings of her heart, she finds herself drawn to Henry in ways she never anticipated. What begins as a calculated manoeuvre to secure her family's future soon spirals into a passionate love affair that will shape the fate of a kingdom. Henry VIII x oc

The Pearl Of Great Price
Fortune favors the brave or incredibly reckless. Charles Brandon, the Duke of Suffolk, a man of impulsive nature takes a risk on a woman of cautious prudence. Tasked to marry the King's daughter, through trials and tragedies he learns to triumph with the pearl of great price by his side. And hopefully a new dynasty can begin. All hail House Brandon.

My husbands first love
** "Maximilian?" I blink at her silently. She just called my name. By my name. Instead of feeling repulsed and detested by that sound I instead can't feel anything anymore. All I can see is her. My breath stops for a moment again. Just like back in the tent. "Yes it's me." I say, quickly looking away from her side. "Why are you here?" She asks me coldly taking my hand away from her cheek. She then sits up straight in the sofa, far from me. I silently drop my hand back to my lap. I kind of felt disappointed. "Why can't I be here? Can't a husband visit his wife whenever he wants?" She shakes her head. "You're not like other husbands. And I'm not like other wives. You're a husband that's still hung up on their first love. And I'm a wife that wants nothing to do with you." She says with her tired eyes, after having slept only for 2 hours. _____________________________ Maximillian, the Emperor of the Kaisenarch Empire, who still love his first love. Elizabeth, the Empress that only wanted her husbands love She had taken years to realize, that maybe her marriage was always doomed, from the beginning. And her feelings will never be reciprocated. She falls first, he falls harder trope. ______________________________ This is a story I wanted to make from "A stepmother's marchen" or "The fantasy of a stepmother". With the characters Maximillian and Elizabeth. I so badly wanted to see their relationship Develop. None of this is my ownConcluida
