Henry asks the alluring Anne Boleyn to become his official mistress, whom he would honor and love above all others. She refuses his offer and becomes the first women in England to say no to the King which drives his passion on for her and he promises that one day he will marry her. However Charles V becomes a threat once again when he releases King Francis I. Henry decides to once again make alliances with the French in a bid to bring Charles V down, who, if Henry put his wife aside would surely invade to protect his Aunts interests.

Anne’s Quotes

“Maitresse en titre? Your official mistress? What have I done to make you treat me like this? Your majesty I have already given my maidenhead into my husband’s hands. And whoever he is, only he will have it. Because I know how it goes otherwise. My sister is called the great prostitute by everyone!”

“And I make you this promise, when we are married, I will deliver you a son.”
