The King and Queen and The Field Marshal

"The King and Queen and The Field Marshal"

"Queen Juliet," sat at her desk penning a letter to her younger sister, Reanna, about her son. The missive focus is on the queen's nephew, "Prince Antonin," the sybarite his recent marriage. The queen sighed as she thought about his five illegitimate sons. The amazing factor was how all the young princes were just as handsome as their father.

That being because many beautiful women flocked to him romantically. One was a housekeeper who held a prominent position in a royal house. Then came a chambermaid, who never refused his amorous affections, although it be day or night. However, Antonin's saucy red-haired scullery maid, had caught the eye of several of the queen's male courtiers. Despite this the woman refused their overtures as her interest lay strictly with Antonin and none other. Included in his group of ardent lovers there had also been two married duchesses. Their pregnancies caused anger to flare as pressure and desires for violence arose in their marriages.

Both husbands wanting to "Duel ou un-Combat" against Antonin for the disgrace he'd brought to their aristocratic names and their royal houses much less the wives. However, level headiness soon returned as the husbands recalled that someday the prince would be "King of Massapinot. Over time it became apparent that the children were not the two husbands since they looked identical to Antonin when he was a child. There was never any question in anyone's mind who the children belonged to anymore. Particularly since their husbands were assigned abroad on the queen's business when the babies were being conceived.
