Royal Deception - Chapter 39: Chapter 39

"My mother would like to have a word with you" I heard him faintly say in the unbelievably gigantic room.
"Where am I?" I asked rubbing my eyes and then I remembered William kidnapping me.
It didnt take me a second to jump from the bed and manhandle him.
I tried to force him down. I said tried but it failed why you may ask because apparently he was stronger and i only ended up in a very inappropriate position with him.
He looked sexy beneath me. A smirk on his unmistakably handsome face.
"The way I remember it , you always liked being below I guess you changed after all " he said and I turned red .
"Did I just make you blush?" He asked putting a stray strand of my hair behind my ear .
"Stay way from me!" I hissed standing up.
"Where is your mother? , wait your mother the Queen?" I asked with wide eyes.
"I ca not be the King with my mother as Queen sweetheart she is the former Queen"
"That isnt easing the situation here"
"She wants to see you"
"I don't want to see her" I stated throwing my head back in the bed. Comfortable
"You wouldn't want to argue with the Queen would you?" He asked more like threatened.
"You forced me to come here I didnt want any of this!" I yelled irresolut of what to do
"You're going to go down and meet my mother if it means I have to drag you there myself" his voice was serious and I'd never seen this side of him. Strangely it turned me on.
"Where the hell are my clothes?" I finally asked accepting defeat
"Oliver your tone matters a lot when you are in my palace so it would do you good to keep it down and stop cussing"
"I dont have time for this now where are my clothes? You left them didnt you? you chauvinistic bastard!"
"Check in my closet the fourth one from your right" he simply said flipping onto the bed.
"Leave I need to change"
"I shall not look" he stated pulling out his phone
"I still haven't forgiven you" I reminded him.
"I am aware"
"I dont think I ever will forgive you" I told him changing into decent clothes oh who am I kidding nothing in my closet was enough to impress a Queen.
So I wore my simple blue summer dress that my mother bought for me last Christmas and white flats.
"I know"
"Dont piss me off William I have bigger issues to worry about " I said frustrated
"Like what ? My mother ?" He asked with faint amusement.
"You haven't changed you know , In other words you're still annoying"
"That is very rich coming from you"
"Thanks Its been long since I got a compliment. How do I look?" I asked and he looked up.
William badly stared ... and stared with wide eyes was the dress that bad?
"You look ravishing" he commented and winked with a darkened gaze.
I was speechless. And ignored what he had said as well as his small gesture.
But I thought of mocking him.
"Was something in your eye?" I asked with concern
"Why?" He asked looking at me
"I saw you flashly closing it and I thought something happened to it I was worried "
"If this is you trying to make me mad or something it is not working " he spoke standing up
"Take me to your mother" I finally said after thoroughly looking myself in the mirror.
I looked ok.
*****The palace or the slight glimpse of what I was seeing was a sight to die for. The blocks which were mad out of brick looked firm and strong. The windows were polished and the men standing guard at every door the palace had looked like cartoon patrols and yes they didnt move.
The Rose Bush made me almost faint. How could anyone live in such a place and not die of shock due to the beauty of human nature.
It looked beautiful like nothing I'd ever set my eyes on apart form William.Gosh no! It scared me however to think that I was meeting a Queen an actual Queen.
This was not Halloween she was not going to be a dress up Queen , it was not a play either she was real. The Queen of England. And I internally sighed.
"Mother" William said but the woman looked distracted by Louis. She was sinking him in as if she had been longing for him to show up.
"Just a moment" she said and left Louis to run into the Rose Bush alone then she turned.
I felt jealous . Extremely jealous. I was heart broken. The woman was probably in her sixties now but she looked far prettier than my twenty-two year old face.
Her features traced elegance and unspoken ruthlessness. Those eyes I'd say she looked fit to act as Malificent and her body was perfect and still in tact despite her old age.
No wonder why William looked breath taking this is where it came from.
"I said hello to you" I faintly heard her saying .
"Oh hi" I said holding my breathe
"William I said bring her here I did not say your presence was needed" she said and He left taking Louise with him.
He left Me alone with Her.
How is it that this boy or man now always manages to leave me in the worst situations I mean face it.
"I believe your name is Oliver" she said walking away from me gesturing for me to follow her or atleat I thought so.
"Yes Your Honour " I said and internally corrected myself Highness the word I was supposed to use was Highness not Honour.
She turned and skeptically gazed at me her grey orbs scorching my blue ones.
"I can see why he chose you" she said
softly.
"Who?" I asked obtusely.
"William of course" she replied boredly.
"Why if I may ask your Honour?" Again it slipped I needed a freaking mind manual
"If it is that hard to say Your Highness or My Queen Oliver you can call me Cleopatra" and I stared at her like she had grown four heads not two.
This wasnt the same stone cold woman I had met a few minutes ago. Was she bipolar?
"You were saying" I resumed our conversation.
"I said i now know why my son chose you"
"Why?"
"Because for a commoner you are impeccably beautiful" she commented and I deadpanned with red cheeks was i really that good looking?.
"I do apologise about my son" she said with shame.
"What about him?"
"He said he only discovered about Louis two days ago and I am sorry about his irresponsible behaviour he should have acted well bred" she smiled.
"I dont think it's your place to apologise for that"
"You are right but I have to" she said nicely
"This isnt what I expected" i finally confessed after she had offered me tea.
"What did you expect a raging Queen?" She asked amused
"Not that it's different from what I expected but I was prepared to see a female fire dragon ready to unleash" I said freely
"I fancy how you speak without thinking" she commented
was that a compliment or an offense.
"I was not offending you i did not mean it in context what I meant was that most peope think things through to impress me apparently you do not do that"
"Ohhh" was all I managed to say.
Although she had been nice to me . My heart was still beating and a wave of unrest pushed through me.
"You need to calm down" the queen smiled
"You do not exactly look comfortable shall I be chivalrous and offer you another cup of tea?" she questioned
"No thanks"
"I wonder how William got you to come here I can see you are not an easy woman"
"He kidnapped me in the context."
"I see...he is smart" and she smiled "I can tell we are going to get along" she flashed me a small but remarkable smile and left the Rose Bush.
Wait I was alone.
Great.
