She thinks if she does this the Cardinal will then let Thomas Cheney have Anne Broughton. Anne brought it up to the king, and surprisingly he was okay with letting her flirt with another man.

In chapter 17, Anne still doesn't know if Thomas will be allowed to be with Anne Broughton, but she says Thomas and her stepfather are at a truce. Anne keeps receiving gifts from the Cardinal and after she sees the wine he sent her, she thinks he is being so nice because she's an enemy to him. Anne and Margery are in Anne's room, when her brother comes to her. She asks why has the king not said anything to her and where is he going. Her brother tells her the king sent him to tell Anne h wants her company at a picnic with him at Windsor Manor. Henry brought men from his Privy Chamber, and Anne brought her three ladies. When Anne and Henry made it to the manor, a 60 year old man, George Talbot, greeted them. While they are at their picnic, a man named Will was doing comedy for them. He brought out a pet monkey, and Anne told him she is scared of monkeys. Anne and Henry started to dance, then Anne took her shoes off, which is something that isn't usually done in this time period. The end of the chapter, Henry told Anne "I love you", she hesitated, but she said it back to him.

Chapter 18 takes place at the Palace of Placentia in Greenwich. It is now the beginning of summer, and everyone is planning for the May Day festivities. Anne found out that Katherine, the Queen, would be accompanying him in the joust. Anne was very jealous. She went to her room and kept pacing back and forth. Nan went to see if she was okay, and while she was up there she found the copy of the book 'The Obedience of a Christian Man'. Anne told Nan that she should read it, and keep it close to her because it is an illegal book. Anne only did that because she knew in the future one of Wolsey's men would steal it from Nan and Anne would know what to do.

Poem

My love for you
Has always been true
Even in my darkest days
I can always find light in your eyes

You make me smile
Even when I'm blue
I can't picture myself
With anyone but you

You are the one
I've always longed for
The only one
That's been in my dreams

You are who
I want to spend the rest of my days with
For better or for worse
I'll always be with you
