Elizabeth Hampton to Marie of Luxembourg

Dear Marie,

I trust that my letter finds you well.

I am a little annoyed that you have not been in touch lately. I do hope that you are still doing that which I tasked you with?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

I am fully aware of what you want. I will take my time. You have no barring with the timeline. If you want it done sooner then perhaps you should find another person that you can intimidate. Remember I am still the queen. You may be a witch but one day you will come across someone that you can not touch.

Queen Marie

Dear Marie,

I do not like your tone. Remember who it was that made you a Queen and I can easily take it from you. Now I need to discuss something with you. The Swedish Royals are here in Romania and Marius's potential bride. Tell me do you know of Princess Rebecca?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

My tone does not factor in when I speak to you .  If you want to threaten fine. You must remember how you were able to be were you are.  Without me you would be nothing.  I am of royal blood.  Why would you ask a question like that?  Is this the princess that Marius met while in Sweden.  Are we feeling a little nervous about your status with Marius.  I do not know of her personally.  All I know is that the Swedish Royal Family are all beautiful and well favored.  

Queen Marie

Queen Marie,

Yes it is the young Princess that was in Sweden with him. I just wanted to know if you knew of her at all and I do have to say having met her this morning she is indeed a great beauty. Why would you even think that my position is at risk?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

If you have met the Royal Family why do as me questions.  Are you nervous that she will take your place in his heart.  She will be Queen of Romania and not you.  Why do you want to know anything else that you can not ask yourself.  If I were you I would not harm her especially when she has her family there.  You must stay away from them. Stay away from her.

Queen Marie

Dear Marie,

I am not nervous that she will win his heart. I have something in mind that will be my gift to the couple for I am happy for them both. Do you really think that I would even attempt to harm the royal family?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,  

I guess you are going to give them a poisoned gift.  You know that you are not happy for him.  You want to rule Romania.  So, are the Swedish Royal Family as beautiful as I have been told.  I know that Queen Mary ( the new Swedish Queen) is a real beauty she is King Henry's younger sister.  By the way I I KNOW that you will try to harm the Royal Family especially if they get in your way.. You know if he has her in his life Rebecca will move you out.


Queen Marie

Marie,

That is why I never liked your wisdom for you always seem to know what I am thinking. I have no intention of harming the King and Queen of Sweden besides Marius does whatever I tell him for I control him and his staff. Remember that necklace I showed you Marie?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth
You believe that you control this man.  Beware.  I know you and I know that you are not stupid.  You fear the Swedish Royal Family.  Do not believe that you are in that kind of power.  You are going to turn around and he will have you escorted out.  Keep your distance from them.  The King and Queen of Sweden are no fools and they are watching out for the Princess.  They are going to protect her.  What do you want from King Marius.?  Why do you want to control him.?  Stop scheming.  You are going to be the one who will suffer for it.  

Queen Marie

Dear Queen Marie,

You see that is where you are wrong, of course I control him. I am just letting it all play out for the time being making all look normal. Let the Swedish Family think what they like, this marriage cannot happen for Marius will not love her and will marry me. I will make sure of it. I have a very special little gift for the Princess.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

Why do you tell me this madness. Marius cares deeply for the Swedish princess. They all know this. And all of a sudden they come to Romania now he feels differently. You are willing to expose yourself for your vanity. Stay away from the Swedish princess. Say what you want but you will not not win this. You will not be Queen. Stop this madness.

Queen Marie

After Elizabeth Hampton left this message. I felt that I have to warn The Romanian Royal Family and the Swedish Royal Family from what Elizabeth is planning for the Swedish princess and King Marius. She must take away Marius' happiness with the young princess Elizabeth Hampton has gotten away with a lot but this has to end

Dear Queen Marie,

Marius and the young princess together what a happy match it shall be. I shall let thing proceed with them for the time being. There is another member of the Royal Party that is frustrating me whom I do not like. Now there is the visit of my sister, why is she here. Nevermind it will not stop my plan. Oh and Marie, how is your finger? My ring suits you doesn't it?

Elizabeth

I knew that after my message to her that Marie would likely try to warn the Royal family of my plans. She did not know that any letter that she sent was being intercepted and her latest warning message had been intercepted by my dear Matthew who was always loyal to me.

I wrote back to Marie in response.

Dear Marie,

Nice try with your warning letter, did you really think that you would succeed?

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

Did you believe that I am that trusting when it comes to you. I know you would anticipate what I would do. You should not underestimate me. That will be your undoing.

Queen Marie

Queen Marie,

You always were very good at joking around with me. Do not try anything stupid.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

You think that I am joking. Do not worry yourself. I will not have to do anything "stupid". You will do it for me. Thinking that you are all powerful. Remember it is not always the power that wins.

Queen Marie

Queen Marie,

You seem very sure of yourself. My sister has arrived in Romania and just the sight of her annoys me too.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth

So your sister is there with you. That is interesting. So why do you tell me about this. Elizabeth, are you nervous about your sister. Again why do you tell me about this. So tell me what is the Swedish Royal Family like. Is Marius happy with her. Well have a nice time with your sister..

Queen Marie

Dear Marie,

King Marius unfortunately does seem infatuated with this Swedish Princess and now my sister Charlotte is here. There will ne eras be a great time between the two of us for I despise her and I do not know why she has even come. Marie, is it true you plan to visit?

Elizabeth

Dear Elizabeth,

So Marius likes the Swedish princess. I am happy for him. What do you want from me. I have never met the Swedish Royal Family. But I can go to Sweden. Why do you hate your sister. Do you think that I want to visit Romania? Actually I do not want to visit. Kindly remove me from your plans. But perhaps I can visit. I would like to see the Swedish family and your sister. Elizabeth what are you planning?

Queen Marie

Dear Queen Marie,

I will not tell you what my plans are for I know that you will go straight and tell the Swedish royals. Marie tell me why is it that you have tried to find out about how to break your curse? Oh yes I know about that.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth,

Well it does not matter.  I do not owe you any explanations for what I do.  Of course I did. Like I want to have your petty curse on me.  You have the nerve to be angry with me for being in love with your friend.  It is insane.  Why were you upset about that?  My only crime is that we loved each other.  He was a friend not your lover nor your husband..  Unless you were in love with him.  You never told me your interest in him.  Had you told me I would not have been involved with him.  All you could think of to do is to treat me like your servant .  Of course I would want to get away from being your slave.  You would do the same.

Queen Marie

Dear Queen Marie,

The man that you were with was more than just a friend to me. He and I were meant to be together for we both loved each other. You doing what you always do just had to have him for yourself and break my heart. We were friends the two of us and then you do that to me and you had to be punished. You want the curse broken then I will break it after you do one last thing for me.

Elizabeth
