Chapter 99: Soul

William held the massive doors open for her to pass through first, then started heading down the corridor and leading her back towards her apartments.

Camilla walked a little behind him in silence, rerunning the conversation with King Edward in her head, unable to stop dwelling on the roar of his shouting and the rage etched on his face.

William was quiet as well. It was only when they turned the corner and entered a narrow back corridor that he finally stopped walking and turned around to face her. He had a small smile on his face. "Well, that didn't go so badly. I mean, he was angry and all but he then-"

He quickly stopped talking in surprise when Camilla launched herself at him, pushing him up against a wall. Her cheeks were pink and her eyes sparked with fury.
