Gwendolyn did not do a good job with hiding her surprise at the news that Cameron remained unwed. Seeing him again when she was a grown woman had only confirmed what she had always known about him-- that he was just as handsome as she had always thought of him. Women of the court had fawned over him, flustered over his young and dashing good looks. And she, a jealous princess and competitive for his attentions, had remained an annoying thorn in his side constantly.<br/><br/>To hear that after all of this time, he was still unwed, was certainly odd for her. In the back of her mind, she was aware of the fact that was strangely relieved to hear it-- the same competitive and jealous princess she had always been. Competitive for just<i>what </i>exactly, she wasn't entirely sure.<br/><br/>Above this relief however was sadness in knowing that her beloved Cam had been so alone.<br/><br/>"I hope you know that your post as knight doesn't necessitate a vow of abstinence," she chided gently, "I loathe the thought of you alone."
