"But, if you didn't, matters would have been far worst-" "A queen never abandons the man that's been with her through it all. Her husband, lover and best friend. A queen doesn't abandon her mate." She slowly began to walk towards the door, no doubt ready to close it. "If this is what being a queen feels like, then I simply don't want it." .............
