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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnvCye4PH8
"I don't want the queen or my mistress knowing that I am here with you." said the king. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8SawwlWsW
"But we aren't doing anything wrong." said Camila. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYUsbC4EBK
"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." 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPY1YScz1h
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jVfAO14JL
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbG4D8oJ1y
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPVxl0XWrx
"Why are you so happy. Its like you are a whole new person." said Lily. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30H0sOHJMP
"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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ275BvVvcQ8
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7PZbQTcd9
"Remember the night that we arrived in court?" asked Elizabeth.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIQRkNwX5k
"Yes." said Camila.713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8v5kyNFwO
"Do you remember when you were worried about if you would find a husband in time?" 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtCrjc9P1f
"Yes." 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48YZDQNu1a
"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." 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ErKlib6Wo
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgIqVYUQ5k
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEScYISpAAz
"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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIW79ZStwE
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDpT408Emh
"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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRiaO0XKGF
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. 713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle9MILyEYy
