　　"And now you need to fulfil your first duty as royal princess." He smiled down at her. "Smile and wave at the crowd. They're expecting it."

　　The last of her insecurities faded and Holly gave a bubble of laughter, her mood lifting still further as she saw the smiles of genuine delight on the faces of the people pressing against the barriers.
