a request from someone on tumblr

a/n: i usually don't write for the Queen of Hearts, but this certain request inspired me to write this, i hope this up to your expectations and enjoy it!

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵

Amidst Wonderland, there ruled a queen with a firm hand and a discerning eye. She held authority upon everyone who lived in her kingdom, strict rules made to keep everyone in order. But, beneath the hard and authoritative exterior she held, a hidden corner in her heart that had softened over time, a spot reserved for a certain guard....Y/n is her name, a diligent and loyal guard.

Y/n was known throughout the kingdom for her unwavering dedication and sense of duty, but also for the obvious affect she had towards the Queen.

In the Royal Palace, hearing whispers about the unusual behaviour the Queen had in front of the female guard was common, a lovesick like behaviour.

The Queen had first noticed her steadfast presence and her keen eyes that missed nothing. Over time, an unspoken fondness grew in the Queen's heart for Y/n.

One day, the portrait of the Queen had been vandalised, painted red and slashed.....𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯, she has had it either the constant attacks toward her, despite it not being direct and she was determined to find the culprit.

As the queen entered the palace's court, the guards bowed down before her presence and watched as she neared them before commanding them to stand.

The Jack of Diamonds rose to his feet and approached the queen with caution "My Queen. I apologise for the inconvenience, i-"

"Have you found the culprit or not!?" The Queen bellowed, tired of the incompetency of the guard.

"Not yet, your excellency, but i am working on it" Jack of Diamond uttered.

"You are considered to be my greatest subject! You have exhausted my patience...OFF WITH YOU-" Just as the Queen yelled another figure spoke.

"Your Royal Highness! If i may interrupt." The female guard, Y/n, said.

The Queen turned around ready to condemn, the one who dared to interrupt her, that is until she saw who it was.

"Y/n! Darling, of course, please...what is it?" The queen had suddenly calmed down at mere sight of the girl. The queen stood before her with a smile on her face, standing like a puppy waiting for its master.

"Your Grace, i would like to deeply apologise, the Jack of Diamonds isn't to blame. I was the one on duty these past few nights and if there is someone to be punished, it is i. I have been incompetent and unable to capture the perpetrator." The female guard contested, bowing down to her knees before the Queen.

The Queen grew panicked "No no, darling..." the red haired girl chuckled nervously " i was simply joking, ahahah" she faked laughed looking around, threatening anyone with her eyes who didn't laugh along with her "his head will stay on and so will yours, darling, do not worry about it" the Queen cleared her throat.

"Are you certain, your Majesty?" Y/n said raising her head to look at the Queen.

"Yes, yes....now, please, get up, no need to how to me" the Queen insisted taking Y/n by her arms, personally guiding her to stand up.
