The CW's tv show Reign is great if you don't know anything about the time period. If you're obsessed with historical dramas and the Tudor era, then the show "leaves something to be desired," this does not.

Summary
The youngest generation of the Ancient and Most Noble House of Black is rather close in age (or, really, they mathematically should be).
There are the sisters: angelic Narcissa, sensible Andromeda, and loyal Bellatrix, and of course, the brothers, the wild Heir and the dutiful Spare: Sirius and Regulus—all five bound together by shared nursery promises and blood.
Yet, Sirius still is sorted into Gryffindor, Andromeda still runs off with a muggleborn, Bellatrix still begins to lose her mind, Narcissa still does as she is told, and Regulus… Regulus still joins the Dark Lord.
He still goes to the cave.
He doesn’t leave alone.
TLDR: how The Black Family embodies the Big, Screwed-Up Family Trope. “though if you piss off one of them, the rest will instantly band together to destroy you in order to uphold the Family Honor.”
[AU of the First Wizarding War in which a Horcrux muddles the conception of Toujours Pur and The Family, dysfunctional though it may be, finds a third side in the war.
Or: blood purity is *as* important as the near death of their children to the Elder Generation of the House of Black.]

Summary
"For weeks," Olha continues, "you've been snappish and paranoid. Yuriy Ivanovich betrayed your trust, so you decide that you're surrounded by traitors. You shout unreasonable things at your friends, and afterwards you fall into the arms of a woman ten years your junior whom you hardly know. Sleeping with your subordinate! Really, Vasya!"
"You're all my subordinates," Vasya points out.
"That's different. We are here to stage an intervention."

Summary
Athens allies begrudgingly with Sparta in a time of great need. They could not be more different: Athenian philosophy to Sparta's bleak realism. Athenian comfort to Spartan starkness. The sun and the moon. As the poets say, though: opposites attract.

Charles XII, King of Sweden (AKA the Swedish Meteor or Carolus Rex, if you felt like some extraneous Latin), had expected he would face God one day, but he certainly didn't expect that when he did, he would be given a second chance at life in another world- he wasn't entirely sure what this 'smartphone' thing was, but he'd figure it out.

Born of love, tarnished by the scandal of illegitimacy, and wholly determined to make something of herself: this is the Becoming of Selina Bridgerton.
