Camilla's P. O. V.

"My darling, you look beautiful. "

I give Julian a slight smile as I walk out of the room. He follows after me, "What's wrong?"

I turn around and gape at him in shock, "What's wrong? You hit me yesterday. And that is unacceptable. "

Julian sighs and runs his hand through his hair, "I am so sorry, Camilla. I was extremely jealous, and I know that's no excuse. I just love you so much. And I thought after Louis was gone, I would get you all to myself. "

I sigh, "I have to entertain all these men. "

He nods, "I hate that you're going to be occupied the whole time tonight with men wanting you. "

I give him a smile, "Maybe you should court me as well. Then I can dance with you. "

Then I turn around and walk down to the ballroom, walking in and smiling, seeing all the people talking and dancing.

Dancing. My favorite thing to do. I get to dance all night. While I'm excited for that, I'm nervous for who I'm going to have to dance with. I'm sure I'll be with some insufferable men.

"Your Majesty, thank you for the dance."

I curtsy as the man walks away. Julian walks up, pulling me into his arms. We start dancing across the dance floor.

I laugh, "Well hello sir"

He grins, "I remember the first time we danced in this room. It was magical"

I smile, "It was. That seems like a lifetime ago"

Julian nods, "Lots of things have happened. I love you with all my heart. I hope you know that. "

I nod, "I do. "

The song ends and Julian moves to the edge of the room, watching me as I start dancing with someone else. But not just anyone. Charles.

"You look ravishing"

I smile, "Thank you. You look quite handsome. "

Charles grins, "Your boyfriend doesn't seem to keen on me"

I laugh and look over at Julian, who is glaring at us from where he is standing.

All the sudden, there is a song change. It's not a waltz or a tango song. It's just one of those, hold each other close and sway, songs.

I lay my head against Charles' shoulder and sigh in contentment. I say in his ear, "I feel alive when I'm with you. "

Charles quickly kisses my head, which would be very wrong if anyone say, and says, "So do I. You make me feel as though my heart is going to jump out of my chest. "

I move my head so it's near his heart, which is beating rapidly, "Oh my"

Charles laughs, "Just being in your presence, makes my heart speed up. "

I smile up at him, "You make my whole body tingle. From my fingers to my toes. Just the mere sight of you causes me to get butterflies. "

Charles presses his forehead against mine and whispers huskily, "I can give you another reason to tingle"

I take a deep breath, starting to feel all hot and bothered, "You mustn't get me flustered when you know we cannot do such things."

"And why can't we?"

I bite my lip, "Well, I can't disappear from the ball. And Julian will wonder why I'm not in bed with him. "

Charles whispers, "It could happen on our day together. We could go a few towns over, get a hotel room. No one would ever have to know. "

I say boldly, "And what would you do if I didn't satisfy you? If I didn't live up to your expectations?"

Charles laughs and shakes his head, "I already know you will. Just looking at your body, the way you move when you dance. I know you'll exceed every expectation I've ever had. "

I grin, "You're putting a lot of pressure on me. "

As the song ends, Charles says, "Think about it. "

I curtsy and he bows as he walks away. I get a little break before I have to dance with more men. I walk over to Julian, who is grimacing at the floor.

"Julian, what's wrong?"

He looks up at me, "You're actually entertaining these men's offer"

I shake my head, "I am not!"

"Yes, you are. Only 1. Prince Charles. I'm not blind, Camilla. I know this because you were just looking at him the way you looked at me. "

I look away, wanting to cry at the pain in his voice, "Julian, you hit me. And I don't know how I can overlook that. "

Julian runs his hands up and down my sides, making me shiver. He breathes in my hair and lightly kisses my neck, "But think about everything else I've done. Every time I'm made you moan. Every time I've made you scream out my name in pleasure. The time we made a baby together. "

I close my eyes and tilt my head back. Why is everyone trying to get me in the mood.

I grab Julian by the arm and pull him out of the ballroom. I march to our bedroom and close the door, locking it.

"Camilla, what are you doing?"

I grab his shirt and rip it open, not caring about the buttons. I run my hands up and down his chest, "I want you. I need you. Only you. "

Julian grins at my response and picks me up, carrying me and tossing me onto the bed. I giggle as he climbs on top of me. Things go on from there..
