The Queen's everything gxg

Chapter 21

The next day Aerilyn wakes up, stretching before climbing out of bed, she showered and got dressed, wearing another one of the flowery dresses that was hanging in her wardrobe. There wasn't much else beyond dresses.

She was finally starting to feel better about things. She was not going to let the Queen drag her down, or anyone for that matter, she had to figure out a way out of here and back to her family.

Nilsa knocked before walking in and told Aerilyn she had to go to breakfast, which was a white lie, she just wanted the stubborn vampire and girl to get along so she didn't have to keep babysitting the her.

It was exhausting watching the pair and now she knew the Queen wouldn't hurt the girl she felt it was okay to leave her with Solenne.

Arriving at breakfast, the doors were flung open. There sat the Queen, but she appeared different and almost shocked that Aerilyn was stood there, as she hadn't been expecting her.

She was dressed differently too, not in her usual clothes but more dressed down and casual.

Aerilyn noticed the shock on her face and turned around to say something to Nilsa but the sneaky vampire had already left the room with the door closed.

"It's okay, eat I can leave" Solenne spoke softly.

Aerilyn raise an eyebrow at the vampires behaviour. "You don't need to leave, it's fine" keeping her head down she approached the table, but after all that had happened, she couldn't bare to sit next to her, she was not her equal.

Approaching the Queen, she saw Solenne watching her out of the corner of her eye, eyeing her up and down.

Aerilyn got down to the floor and sat on her knees, the Queen frowned, she didn't know whether to say something or not. Just as she was about to, the most annoying person walked in.

Tessa strutted in, swaying her hips from side to side.

"Hello my love" she went to Solenne's side and kissed her cheek. Aerilyn scowled as much as she could.

The Queen grimaced at the kiss, she needed to sort this mess out once and for all. Tessa then saw Aerilyn sat on her knees "I thought I could smell something bad in here, I don't know how you can bare to be around that smell" the girl wasn't sure how to take that, what was that suppose to mean.

"As you can see I'm busy with my pet, you can go and I will find you later" at this Tessa's anger heightened as she was pushed away again. She huffed and stormed out of the room before the guards could make her.

They were alone again.

"I'm very sorry about her" the Queen apologised, not that she had too.

Aerilyn didn't see the need to respond, she just sat there patiently, she had heard it all, she was her pet.

This caused the Queen to sigh. "Sit in the chair, I don't need you losing your legs again" she commanded.

She knew Aerilyn was stubborn and so the regal Queen stood up and pulled the chair out for the girl, she had to stop herself holding her hand out to her, she didn't have the right to touch her, so she felt.

The girl hesitated but proceeded to stand. The Queen had backed away and sat back down in her chair. Neither could read the others expression.

The cold Queen held a stoic face once again and was an expert in masking her emotions. She could smell the fear coming off the girl and it took everything she had not to do something about that.

"You can look at me, I won't hurt you" She spoke, but the girl whose choices had been taken away from her decided she did not want to look at the Queen, gaining what little control she had.
