    This story I am about to tell you, will make you glad you have what you are able to have today. Your freedom to believe in what you wish to believe in. you should never take granted of what you have be proud and never be selfish someone could always have it worse. My name is Lola De’medici queen of Great Britain, and this is my story.


     I was forced to be queen at a young age. My father died when I was only 4 years old. I was his only hair to the throne. My mother Claude had arranged a marriage for me with the prince of France Henry the ll, in return for an alliance. My mother sent me to France as soon as the marriage was arranged, and there I was raised. Many people didn’t want a british royal on the French throne. In the meantime Great Britain was being run by a bunch of men who believed that a female had no place on the throne. 


     Once I and the prince were of age to be wed the prince's mother Catherine tried everything in her power to kill me because the castle seer Nostradamus told Catherine that he had seen the future and that Henry marrying me would be the death of him. Cathrine put all her faith into Nostradamus visions. She didn’t tell Henry of the vision because she knew that he would try to find some logical explanation of why not to believe it. 


       While Catherine was busy trying to kill me she didn’t have time to see that everything she poisoned was saved and given to the prince. The prince started to go insane and become delusional doing things he would usually never do. He started to do more and more dangerous things, he was unstoppable. He went on a hunting trip and accidentally shot himself with an arrow. 


 “ your majesty prince Dauphin Henry II has sadly passed away!” the messenger had announced in the ballroom.

This king didn’t take this news fondly. He found out about the poison.

King Fancis called out

 “ This is an act of foolishness, I want every house searched in every village. I want every person questioned. I want to know who did this!”

A guard had come into the throne room and told the king of the information that he had just been told by the other guards.

“Your majesty we have come to find that queen Catherine Stuart had been trying to poison queen Lola and prince Harry.”


Catherine screamed

 “This is an outrage, there must have been some type of mistake, I would never poison one of my own children!”

“Take her away!” the king screamed “Get her out of my sight!”


 Then he had queen Catherine beheaded. He then turned to me as his new queen.

He called out for his messenger.

“Send a message to the reign of Great Britain, I shall take a new wife queen Lola De’medici under the terms that we keep the alliance.”

 He sent a message to my mother discussing the miss fortune, my mother agreed to the new deal of the king marrying me and alliance. 


         I did not want to marry king Frances so I ran. I didn't get too far before they caught up to me and caught me. They brought me back to the castle and that night I was forced to marry the king. The king was a harrid man. He beat me when I did not do as he pleased. He would push himself on me to try and conceive another hair to the throne. I was not happy and I did not feel safe. Luckily I knew where they had stored Catharines vials of poison. I went and grabbed as many poisons as I could. I did not know what they did but I didn't care as long as they got rid of the king. After days went by I put the poisons in the king's food and he started to fade away. I finally knew my life of unhappiness was about to come to an end.


         Finally after two days had passed he died. I thought the day would never come. I was so happy. I thought I was free at last. So I acted as if it was a surprise to me, so no one would suspect me to be the one that killed the king. I tried to burn all the evidence to get rid of it so no one would know but me. Once the new got out the king had died the guards started looking for evidence on how the king could possibly have died. I thought I was in the clear till they found a piece of my dress in the king's chambers. I heard a knock on the door. I knew I was the guard here to get me.


“Come in,” I said. 

“Your majesty?” 

The guard said as he was opening the door to my chambers.

“We”re here under the order of the reagin, your under arrest for the murder of the king and here by orderd to be exicuted imediantly!”


 The guards got me and escorted me to the dungeon to await my execution.
