After tending to the fires throughout the day, Christophe was approached by her majesty, Queen Catherine. She came to him and expressed her sexual desire for him as she began taking off her corset. Christophe picked up on what she wanted and began their sexual relationship.

Having been in a relationship with the Queen Mother for weeks, Christophe was becoming very into their routine. Even following Catherine into the forest during a game for nobles. Knowing how dangerous it was if they got caught, the two lovers took each other underneath the trees.
