Part 3 Francois d'Aubigne

Francois d'Aubigne is her birth name, which changes to Madame de Scarron when she marries Paul but after she meets with the King, he awards her for her long term spent as caretaker to his children with the property of Maintenon so that he changes her name to Madame de Maintenon. Thereafter, she is known as Madame de Maintenon. Because I am of the belief that reinarcarnation does exist, I am convinced that Madame had known the King in a previous life. I have discussed this earlier on this blogspot with all my memories of going back in time to the past to discover all these personalities. This is very interesting to me since I perceive Madame de Maintenon as a person long familiar with the King in a previous incarnation. For the time being, I won't refer to any of those but it becomes pretty obvious that nearly all of these women in the King's life had been a part of a lifetime previous. It is fascinating to me to try to put them in the right persons. *****As the relationship between the King and Athenais was screeching to a halt, since she was becoming pregnant each and every year of their relationship, gaining weight, packing on the pounds, becoming bitchy and hysterical, always fearful that she was losing the Queen, she began to lose her allure, attraction, and looks. The King was distracted, looking elsewhere for love and companionship but growing tired and annoyed with the glamorous and beautiful Athenais. The woman had been a true beauty who knew how to create desire in him. Her last child however more or less drove him away from her right into the warmth of the caretaker, Francois. He could not help but compare the two women who were close friends of a kind despite all the bitter fights that they had had with one another. Francois would openly tell Athenais that she was a poor mother, that she should not be stealing the Queen's spouse away from her. In fact, Francois went so far as to make the King treat his wife more dutifully and kindly than he had ever done before. The irony of course is that all this time Athenais was still the queen's lady in waiting. the Queen never suspected Athenais at all until much too late to realize what had been happening to her. The Queen did forgive Louise after she learned that Louise had not been the "tramp" that she had thought her to be. The King was forgiven because they all understood that he was like any man with women, weak and easily seduced. *****However, as Louis came to visit with Francois, she soon admitted to herself that she had loved him all along as well, and was flattered by his attentions and interest in her so she had no choice but to accept the property that he gave her, and thus, she became his next mistress. He does return to the Queen as Francois suggests he do, but he has his cake and eats it too for then he has satisfied both women totally! Louis is suddenly able to free himself from Athenais. ****
