    Summary

    Rebellion and revenge have bloomed into war. England is torn between two Queen's - the Catholic Queen Mary, who has aligned herself with the Spanish and currently blooming with child and the Protestant Queen Elizabeth, who has forged a pack with the formidable Captain Kett of Norfolk.

    Elizabeth might have the army, but London is a formidable city. Though Captain Robert Kett is a excellent tactician and fierce ally, he has recently been bruised by the revelation of his relationship with Matthew Shardlake - not only the man he loves, but the father of his only daughter out of wedlock. Despite the support of the Queen, their positions at the heart of the rebellion are hardly secure and there are sharks circling waiting to strike at both at the first sign of weakness.

    Meanwhile, an evil lurks close by in the shadows, slipping through a village unseen, wreaking havoc and terror. Not too far from Warwick Castle, a killer lurks. Justice is about to be torn up at the roots and the country set afire with war. Which Queen will rise at the end? And who will be by her side when she does?

    Summary

    Dangerous women do well to keep to themselves...

    Lola is a prisoner at the English court, a bargaining chip, and the closest thing to a confidante that Queen Elizabeth has had in many years. As threats to Elizabeth's crown-- and life-- increase in number and fervor, Lola's chances of making it back to Mary, or even her own son, begin to disappear. It will take a lifetime of practice as a lady-in-waiting and help from unexpected places to keep her heart from breaking and her head on her shoulders, while Elizabeth's palace plays host to courtly intrigue and deadly serious bids for power.

    Summary

    One day in the year 1560, Elizabeth decides to hold an 'emergency' Privy Council meeting at the Royal Palace of Westminster - except that she only wants her four favourites to attend.

    When one of them [a certain Robert Dudley] doesn't turn up straight away, she's concerned. As it turns out, he's grieving over something, and Elizabeth, his beloved childhood friend, is there to comfort him. She does a good job; his sorrow is soon forgotten for a *very* specific reason.

    Any feedback would be appreciated! I always worry that anything I post isn't good or interesting enough. If you find that to be the case, feel free to tell me so - along with any constructive criticism, if you have any!

    The final part of my Elizabethan Destiel, covering the two major events of the late eighties – the fate of both a contrary Scots ex-queen and the attack by the Spanish Armada. The idjits have sons in at both; Scaden and Jensen are well-bred young fellows who often write home to their master Castiel. And to that alpha who for some strange inexplicable reason thinks that he runs the house.... what's his name again?

    Summary

    An Elizabethan Destiel featuring Scots omega Castiel Novak, his true mate English alpha Dean Winchester (who is not whipped, whatever anyone says), their 'interesting' families and many historical characters from Queen Elizabeth downwards. There will be plots, potatoes, murder, mayhem, kilts, kissing, bets, betrayals, explosions, excitement, scheming, screaming, ruts, writings, urges and unguents. There will however be absolutely no cuddling* whatsoever, because alphas do not do that sort of thing.

    * Manly embracing is NOT the same as cuddling!
