Camilla's P. O. V.

(Angela pictured above)

(A few months later)

"M'lady, Angela is here to see you. "

I smile as I finish hanging up my clothes, "Let her in"

Angela walks in and hugs me, "You're back! You've been gone for two months. I missed you!"

I laugh, "I missed you too. "

Angela grabs my hand, "can we talk?"

I nod and sit down on the bed, pulling her down with me, "What's up?"

Angela sighs, "So, you've been gone with Louis for 2 months. "

I nod, "Yes, I have. On our long awaited honeymoon"

Angela nods, "Right. So naturally, Julian and I have been spending a lot of time together. "

I furrow my eyebrows in confusion until she finally clarifies, "I love him. "

My mouth drops open, "You love him?"

She nods, "Look, you may have a physical, passionate relationship with Julian. But think of what you have with Louis. He gives you love and comfort and adoration. He treats you like a Queen. I mean, next month, after the coronation, you will be a queen! Would you really be willing to give all that up for Julian? For a person you don't truly have deep feelings for. "

I stand up in shock, "I don't truly have feelings for him? And how do you know this. Think again, Angela, because I love him. And he loves me. "

Angela smirks and stands up, getting in my face, "Oh yeah? He loves you? Is that why I've had sex with him the whole time you've been gone?"

I take a step back and shake my head, "It was a mistake asking you to stay here. You're not the friend I thought you were. "

Then I turn around and storm out of my room. I walk down the hallway, with tears running down my face.

I walk into the throne room and see Julian standing there, talking to someone. I quickly turn around and walk out.

Julian runs after me, "Camilla!"

I keep walking but he catches up to me, grabbing me and pulling me into an empty room.

"I didn't know you were back"

I nod and walk away, putting some distance between us, "You're probably disappointed, right? Were you going to find Angela for some great sex?"

Julian opens his mouth to speak then closes it again before saying, "Camilla-"

I shake my head, "Please don't. If you've fallen in love with her, fine. I have no one to blame but myself. I'm the one that forced you to date her. She loves you, you know. She came and told me. "

Julian shakes his head, "No, she doesn't. "

I nod, "She does. So, with my permission, you are completely free of me. You're free to be with Angela. To marry her. This, us," I motion between us, "Never happened. And will never happen again. Okay? Okay. I'll see you tonight at the party. "

"Camilla, I don't love her. I love you!"

I give him a small smile and say through my tears, "Take care Julian"

Then I walk out of the room. I sneak outside and sit for awhile.

After about 20 minutes, I walk back inside. I walk by Julian's room and hear him talking to someone. I peek in and see him talking to Angela.

"Why did you tell her that we had sex? You do realize that the only reason I had sex with you, is because I was upset. I was upset because I knew that Louis and Camilla were having sex the whole time they were gone. I love her. Not you. The only reason I'm pretending to be with you, is because she asked me to. So we can be together. And you just ruined everything. You've taken away the most important person to ever walk into my life. If you wanted to ruin my relationship with her, congrats, because she ended everything with me. "

Angela grabs his face between her hands, "I know you have feelings for me. You were so passionate and loving when we had sex!"

Julian pulls away from her hands, "Because I told myself I was having sex with Camilla. Notice that I never opened my eyes. I was picturing Camilla. Not you. I was picturing making love to the love of my life. Not because I love you. "

Angela shakes her head, "You're lying."

Julian sighs, "I'm sorry, but I'm not. "

Angela runs out of the room, crying. She stops when she sees me and says, "I hope you're happy. "

Then she runs down the hall, disappearing. Julian walks out, looking shocked to see me.

He clears his throat, "You heard all that"

I nod. He sighs, "Everything I said was true. I want to make love to you. "

I quickly look around, making sure there's no one to see us or hear us.

I run and jump, wrapping my arms around his waist and wrapping my arms around his neck.

He looks at me in surprise as I whisper, "make love to me then"

He slams his lips on mine and walks us into his room, shutting the door and laying me down on his bed.
