[Games] Re: Saphirdufeu's Royal Congrats
in reply to a message by saphirdufeu
DH: King Simon Thomas Edmund of Wessex (33)
DW: Queen Margaret Eleanor Joana of Fairfax (31)
DD: Princess Katherine Rohesia Elizabeth of Wessex (11)
DD: Princess Alice Constancia Cristine of Wessex (7)
DS: Prince Simon Richard Samuel of Wessex (2)
King Simon and Queen Margaret grew up together in his father's court. At no older than three or four, their nurses came together to let the little ones play. From the tender age of ten or twelve, Margaret started feeling funny every time Simon entered the room. As she hit fourteen, she realized what she felt: attraction. But she kept it hidden, knowing she would have little chance.
Much to her surprise, a couple years later at sixteen, she found out that her parents had betrothed her to Simon from before she could talk. She knew not every girl got so lucky as to marry the man she loved. She promised herself she would forever cherish the knowledge that her husband is indeed her beloved.
In the first year or two of their marriage, Margaret quickly found out that Simon didn't feel the same way about her. He always seemed distracted and treated her more as a playmate even at twenty. Not that he would always goof off. When he had business to attend to, he put on a very serious manner and succeeded quite well at his job. But when they were alone, he returned to his giddy youthfulness.
Due to his inattention to her as his wife, Margaret was surprised when she became pregnant. The instances of marital activities were few and far between and she thought for sure she would be the first woman in her family line not to bear children. When she gave birth to her precious Katherine, Margaret poured all her attention into the baby, forgetting entirely about her husband's inattention to her needs.
Over the following years, the pattern continued. Simon would perform his kingly duties, strong and serious for all to see. When he returned, he would play games with his wife and daughter, though most days Margaret thought he didn't seem to know that Katherine was his. On occasions family or friends would ask about their next child, Margaret would insist they engage and he would agree out of mere duty. Four years after Katherine, Margaret gave birth to Alice and five years after Alice, her first son.
