Camilla's P. O. V.

"Your Majesty, it is an honor to be here. The palace is beautiful. "

Julian nods, "Thank you."

"And the Queen. She is absolutely gorgeous. "

I smile at Charles' mother, "Thank you."

His mom, Loraine, continues, "Charles talks about nothing else but you. "

I look at Charles, who is rubbing his neck nervously, then I look at Julian.

Julian says, "The Queen captures most men with her beauty."

I smile at Julian as he kisses my hand. Charles' dad, Robert, says, "Well she certainly has you under her spell, doesn't she?"

Julian nods, "Oh yes. That's for sure. "

Loraine quickly pipes in, "We would love to meet your children. Do you mind?"

I look at Julian and he shrugs. I nod, "Sure. I'll ring for nanny"

I grab the bell and ring it. The butler comes in, "My lady,"

I smile, "Can you have nanny bring the kids in please? John can eat in here with us. "

The butler nods, "Very good, my lady"

A few minutes later, nanny walks in with Charlotte in her arms and John following behind her.

John smiles and runs to me, jumping up on my lap. Loraine grins, "Can I hold her, please?"

I nod, "Nanny, please take Charlotte to her, please. Then you can go and eat your dinner. "

The nanny gives Charlotte to Loraine and leaves the room. I grin, "Her name
is Charlotte. "

Loraine smiles, "She's beautiful. And your son,"

"John"

"John, he's very handsome. He looks so much like the King. "

Julian grins triumphantly. I laugh as John starts eating his fish sticks.

I'm sitting in the chair, watching John eat, while everyone talks. Julian sets his hand on my knee, "Sweetheart, I was thinking we could go to the opera tonight. "

I smile, "That sounds wonderful. "

"The opera?"

I look to see Loraine looking at us. I nod, "Yes, would you three like to come along?"

Loraine grins, "We would be delighted. Thank you. "

She goes back to goo gooing over Charlotte. I look at Julian and he discreetly rolls his eyes.

Julian and I can hardly get alone time. I stand up, "Excuse me. I am going to get changed for tonight. "

I walk out of the dining room and down to the bedroom. Julian walks in quickly after me, "I'm sorry, sweetheart. I should've asked you more discreetly. "

I smile, "It's fine, Julian."

I grab a nicer dress out and change into it while Julian changes as well. When I'm done getting ready, I feel Julian's arms wrap around my waist. I smile and lean into his chest.

He kisses my cheek, "I love you. So much. "

I smile and close my eyes, enjoying his touch. I sigh, "I love you too. "

Julian kisses my temple, "When we get back from the opera, I'll make sure no one bothers us. And we can just stay in bed for hours. Together. "

I hum, "That sounds great. Alright, we should go. The opera will be starting soon. "
