March 15th 1534

All eyes were on the youngest Boleyn girl as she made the English court her home. Nobles hardly ever heard the Queen talk of her youngest sister and whenever the young girl visited England it had never been more than a few days.

It was known that Margaret Boleyn was liked by a lot of people in France just like her sister before. It was also known that Margaret preferred France over england. But here she was making the English court her home.

Henry had been keeping his eye on the youngest Boleyn as she danced with a group of nobles.

"Has she ever been wed" Henry mutters as Charles Brandon shakes his head.

"She's just turned twenty five years of age and it had been said she liked France a lot"

"Just like Anne"

"She went to France at a young age" Charles adds "Here she is now. Why, no one can say"

"Don't be stupid"" Henry snarls "Her sister is the Queen"

"And your wife"

"And she's with child, every king takes a mistress"

"And do you really think you want to name a mistress once more " Charles comments "Especially A Boylen"

"And has it ever stopped me before"

"No your majesty"

"Have her come to my chambers"

"Of course"

************************************

Margaret laughed as she enjoyed herself, she knew she had to do as her father said. But she just couldn't bring herself to. Instead she was at her sister's side or settling in. The music began once more As Margaret headed to join in another dance. But was stopped before she could even walk to the dance area.

"Lady Margaret might you have a moment" Charles Brandon asked as Margarte nodded her head "Of course your grace"

Henry watched from afar as Charles pulled Margaret to the side.

"Your grace what is the matter" Margaret asked "Is it the Queen"

"The king my lady" Charles corrected her "He wishes for you to join him tonight"

"Me, join the king"

"Indeed My lady"

"I cannot say no Can I"

"That is for you to decide Lady Margaret but he is the king"

"Your grace"

"Lady Margaret"

"Why has the king asked for me, when he knows I am the Queen's sister"

"Lady Margaret that is not for me to answer"

"Of course not, I am sorry for asking such things your grace"

"It is quite fine, I shall allow you to enjoy the rest of the night"

"Thank you your grace"

************************************

Margaret had no other choice but to obey the king, even if it harmed her relationship with Anne. No one ever dared to say no to the king. Look where his wife ended up and His daughter. Margaret also had to listen to her father. The man got her family here and he didn't want to lose any of the power he had.

"The Lady Margaret Boleyn" A guard spoke as she walked into the king's chambers with her head down. And waited for the guard to leave.

"Your Majesty" Margaret spoke up as she looked up and saw the King sat on a couch.

"Margaret It is nice to see you once more" Henry admits.

"Your majesty"

"You are quite different then Anne and Mary" Henry states as Margaret tilts her head, wanting to know how she was different. She always thought Anne and Mary were alike in more ways than one.

"How come Your Majesty"

"I hear you stayed in france after Anne became my mistress"

"France was my home, It had been since I was young your majesty" Margaret smiles softly "Mary ruined herself in ways and Anne was here. I stayed behind in France because I was still young"

"Your still rather young aren't you"

"Indeed your majesty, Anne is almost ten years older then I am"

"You can take a seat Margaret"

"I rather not your Majesty"

"Henry is just fine Margaret"

"Your majesty" Margaret spoke knowing she didn't want to stay in the room with him any longer. She hated the guilt she felt for even talking to the king without her sister being there. But at the same time it was nice talking to someone, but she knew the way Henry worked. He had mistresses come and go. And Margaret knew if she did what her father wanted she had to remain there.

"As I said Margaret Henry is just fine"

"It's improper" Margaret snapped "Your majesty I only came here because you are the king. And the fact my father wants to keep our family where it is now"

"That's why your here" Henry sighs.

"Your majesty I want to do as my father asked and please you as a subject. But I am loyal to my sister" Margaret admits "Goodnight"

"Margaret"

"Goodnight your majesty" Margaret repeats as she leaves his chambers. Henry watched as she walked out and knew right there, that he had to have her. She unlike any other woman he had in his reach told him the truth. And spoke to him like he wasn't a king. She was something he couldn't have and it just made him want her more.

March 19th 1534

Anne turned around as she saw her sister walking out from the castle to join her "Sister,your late"

"I'm sorry. I am still getting use to the castle" Margaret "God your getting bigger"

"Margaret, that's no way to speak to the Queen of England" Anne jokes.

"Of course not my Queen" Margaret smiles as she went down into a curtsy then got back up "Are you to send me to the tower My Queen"

"I don't think I will" Anne joked back as she took hold of her sisters hand "Come now, the carriage is ready"

"I cannot wait to meet Elizabeth" Margaret smiled as Anne got into the carriage and Margaret followed after.

************************************

The minute She saw Hatfield House she fell in love with it. Anne saw how Margaret looked out the carriage window and took in the house. And she knew if Margaret approved of it then it would be a fine place for young Elizabeth to grow up.

"Margaret there is one fine before we go inside" Anne speaks up as the carriage comes to a halt.

"And what is that dear sister"

"Catherine daughter tends to Elizabeth"

"Mary lives here," Margaret mutters.

"Yes it was the king's wish"

"Why would someone wish that" Margaret snarls.

"That is what I said, I don't want that girl near my daughter. She refused to see my as Queen Margaret"

"Anne that is not what I meant" Margaret comments "She was a princess Anne, she is his daughter. And now she's tending to your daughter"

"Margaret you dont know"

"You may think of me as a young and foolish girl, but that is no way for the daughter of a king to live "Margaret snaps as she opens the carriage door and gets out of it.

Anne her lady's and Margaret sat in the room with Elizabeth.

"She's so sweet sister" Margaret smiles as Anne takes Elizabeth of her sister.

"My Elizabeth"

As Margaret watched her sister with her daughter she turned around to Lady Bryan.

"Lady Bryan" Margaret pulled her to the side as some of Anne's lady's looked at her.

"Lady Margaret" Lady Bryan smiled softly "Is everything well"

"Indeed, I heard Lady Mary tends to My niece"

"Yes my lady, she's quite good to Princess Elizabeth"

"May I see her, if that is allowed"

"Of course my lady" Lady Bryan replied "Come with me"

Margaret followed Lady Bryan to the room Mary was in.

"Lady Mary" Lady Bryan walked in ad Margaret stayed outside and waited for her.

Lady Bryan walked out with Mary as Margaret smiled softly.

"Lady Mary the Lady Margaret Boylen" Lady Bryan spoke Margaret looked at Lady Bryan and waited for her to leave.

"Lady Margaret it is nice to meet you" Mary snarled.

"Lady Mary, please allow me to apologise" Margaret spoke up.

"We've never met Lady Margaret there is no reason for me to accept your apology"

"For my sisters actions, and the way your being treated" Margaret addmited "My sister is the Queen Lady Mary"

"I see no Queen other than my mother Lady Margaret, your sister is nothing but the king's mistress"

"Mary I don't care about that, you can see your mother as the true and only Queen. But my sister is your stepmother that makes you family"

"Lady Margaret"

"Lady Mary don't, We are close in age you and I. And I want to be your friend" Margaret smiles as she sees a small smile appear on Mary's face.

"I would enjoy that Lady Margaret"

"It was an a great pleasure meeting you Princess"

"And you lady Margaret"

"How is your pursuing on the Lady Margaret coming along" Charles smirked as he took a seat next to Henry.

"Don't" Henry snaps.

"I take it hasn't gone well" Charles states as Anne walks over.

"Your grace, Your majesty" Anne smiles softly as she takes a seat on Henry's other side.

"I'll leave you both be" Charles speaks up as he walks off.

"Anne You should be in your chambers, protecting the future king" Henry snarls.

"I'm only here because a friend of mine has returned" Anne states as she looks out into the crowds.

"A friend of yours"

"Arthur Dale" Anne tells him.

"Where is he now"

"Over there with Margaret" she smiles as Henry catches Margaret and Arthur laughing with one another.

"His majesty is looking towards us" Arthur smirks "It seems he's taken a Liken to you Margaret"

"Arthur dont,he's my sisters wife"

"And didn't you say that your fat-"

"Arthur watch what you say"

"God Sake Margaret, he's the bloody king of england. If he's taken a liken to you id say go for it"

"Arthur Really"

"Margaret if its to secure your family"

"You have no say in what I do" Margaret snaps as she begins to walk off.

"Margaret, wait" Arthur snapped as he followed her from behind.

"You've been a good friend to me Arthur but I wont have people telling me to hurt my sister. I already feel to guilty"

Arthur grabs hold of her hand and she turns around "Somethings already happened hasn't it"

"Arthur" Margaret warns him as she hears a voice from behind her.

"Lord Arthur"

Arthur lets go of Margaret as he bows his head "Your majesty"

"There's no need for that Lady Margaret" Henry states as Margaret smiles softly to him "May I steal Lady Margaret from you lord Arthur"

"Of course your majesty"

Henry offers his hand out to Margaret and she takes it as he guides her to the side of the room.

"Who was that man" Henry asked as he let her go.

"An old friend of Anne and me" Margaret replied "Your majesty people ar-"

"I am the king, they won't say a word Margaret. Was he bothering you"

"Oh god no, Arthur and I are close. He knows his limits and I know mine your majesty"

"You've proved you know your limits Margaret"

"What do you mean"

"When you left my chambers, every woman I've had there didn't ever dare to say No" Henry whispered "Im fond of you Margaret"

"That is kind to say" Margaret mumbled.

"Say you'll come to my chambers tonight"

"Your majesty"

"We can play cards if that is what you wish my lady" Henry assures her "When I say I am fond of you,I truly mean it"

"Of course your majesty"
