Camila got off her bed and went to the door. "Who is it?" she asked in a frightful voice. "Open the door." said a quiet voice. The voice was familiar to Camila, so she opened the door. Quickly the king came in. "What are you doing here at this hour?" asked Camila. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSOWuE3pFj
"I don't want the queen or my mistress knowing that I am here with you." said the king. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QnJKtSyE1
"But we aren't doing anything wrong." said Camila. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc9uQwlp8P
"The queen could get the wrong idea, so I came in secret. At night I know my servants wouldn't follow me. No one knows that I am here with you." said the king. "Now to the important information. I came here to show you something I got you." 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVElw6pv6L
The king blindfolded Camila and took her to one of the towers. When he took off the blindfold, he and Camila were at the top of the tallest tower. "This tower is very tall." said Camila nervously. "If you fall, I will be there to catch you." said the king in a seducing voice. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX7xCSxdKJ
When Camila looked into the sky, it was filled with beautiful stars and lanterns. "I am only a peasant girl with nothing to offer anyone. I am not beautiful and I am not rich. Yet, the king of Rome would go through all of this work for me." thought Camila. Inside Camila was filling something she hadn't felt before in her life. She didn't know it yet, but she was falling in love with a man she could never be with. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7KLZmCaQw
When Camila woke up the next morning, the night before felt like a dream. She joined Elizabeth and Lily in the dining room and Lily could tell something was different. "What happened to you?" asked Lilly glaring at Camila. "Nothing happened. Why do you ask." said Camila. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Tu444CEOT
"Why are you so happy. Its like you are a whole new person." said Lily. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KPyP3U7t4
"Why cant I be happy? Besides, I just had great sleep last night." said Camila. Lily dropped the conversation, but if you knew Lily you knew she didn't stop poking at something till she found it out. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLP8HeI5QQ
Camila left the dinner table and ventured to see Elizabeth. She checked in her room, but Elizabeth wasn't there. She checked in the garden, but she wasn't there either. When she came back into the castle, a servant told her that Elizabeth wanted to see her in the library. When she went into the library, Elizabeth was sitting in a chair waiting. "Yes, Elizabeth?" said Camila. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdO4Vqqm7U
"Remember the night that we arrived in court?" asked Elizabeth.678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDw74c4dmm
"Yes." said Camila.678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSPKD7NR1P
"Do you remember when you were worried about if you would find a husband in time?" 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKlTMunfnR
"Yes." 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xpo6oYaTd
"Then you surely remember that I promised to help you find a husband." said Elizabeth happily. "I found you a husband that would do. Come with me to meet him." 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFUJROnE40
Camila and Elizabeth went to the carriage that was waiting outside for them. Camila and Elizabeth entered the carriage and they were off. "What would I do now? If Elizabeth doesn't change her mind about the husband thing, I wont be able to be with the king. Also, if I don't marry my parents would kill me and shame me." thought Camila. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6bdgbXn4o
Finally Camila and Elizabeth were at a big house in the countryside. "This is where your husband to be lives." said Elizabeth. Camila's jaw dropped. She was very impressed with the house and the wealth. Camila and Elizabeth walked up to the steps of the house and knocked three times. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzmTQqiIKd
"Coming!" screamed a voice of an old man. The door was opened by a rich looking middle aged man. "Hello, you two must be Camila and Queen Elizabeth." said the man as he kissed and bowed to the women. "Do come in." said he. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsefNnv4DhZ
They all went into the sitting room and had some tea. "Camila, this is Sire Charles." said Elizabeth. "How do you do?" asked Camila. "Very well." said Sire Charles. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD9hHApAt0
"Camila, why don't you get to know your future husband?" asked Elizabeth. Sire Charles led Camila out to the garden where they took a stroll. Sire Charles explained to Camila that he was a widow with no children and was looking for a wife. He became rich from being a merchant. For most of the seasons, except winter, he would be traveling the country selling his goods. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFvT8qCAxY
At the end of the day, Camila and Elizabeth said farewell to Sire Charles and were off back to the castle. Camila was exhausted and went instantly to sleep thinking about what would happen now that she was to be engaged soon. 678Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcKg0AjymH
