Notes: Okay Michel is the son of Anne Alcheri and Michel du Bois, who I've written about here before. He's recently become king after the death of his grandfather, Cluade. Anastasie was his mistress for three years previous and they have two children. Madeline is Michel's paternal grandmother.
“Do you know what you’ve done?”
Michel bit into his apple. “No, what have I done Nonna?”
Madeline bristled at the word nonna. She didn’t allow Michel to call her that. He had probably picked it up from his mother’s family.
“You’ve embarrassed the entire du Bois family! I’ve planned so long for you to make a spectacular marriage to a foreign princess and now you’ve gone and married a courtesan of questionable descent!”
Michel laughed. “Anastasie isn’t a courtesan.”
“No, now she’s the queen,” Madeline snapped back.
Michel grinned. “Yes and as such she outranks you.”
Madeline growled.
“She’ll be crowned in a week’s time.”
“Michel, I can write to the Beatua. He can annul this marriage. You clearly made it under false pretenses.”
Michel stood. “That’s where you’re wrong Nonna. I love Anastasie. My parents loved each other. I want what they had.”
Madeline scoffed. “You simple boy, where are your parents now?”
Michel turned away.
“I expect you to treat Anastasie with the respect she deserves. She’s the mother of the future king.”
He held the door opened.
“After you Nonna.”
Madeline stomped out. Michel laughed. If she weren’t so angry, Madeline would have been distraught at her own behavior.

I think Madeline sees herself as much younger than she is.
