Chapter Nine

A Chapter by Roxii

When the Queen took over, she was only 14. Now, in the age of 17 and about to beecome 18, she was becoming an adult. With that, comes adult responsibilities. So, as an adult, I should of seen this coming, but with whom, is a big shocker.

Standing in the queen's doorway, with broken crystal, a silver platter, and water at my feet, I'm frozen with shock at what I see.

The Black Queen, her clothing scattered over the floor, her blonde hair a rats nest and tangeled, the makeup on her face a mess from persperation and struggle, laying nude under her sheets, but that's not what shocks me the most.

Laying right next to her, bare-bodied is her companion ... Bradley Bussey.

The Queen, before her ruling, had quite a thing for Bradley, actually, well ... apparently, a very big thing for him. After the Black Queen began her ruling, I didn't expect her to want him anymore, but I guess I was wrong.

As I stared into the shock-filled blue eyes of the queen, she let an ear-piercing shreik slide past her lips and slip off the end of her tongue.

"Oh!" I gasped, horrorfied. I bent down onto my knees as a repeating chorus of, "oh, I am terribly sorry. I'm sorry! I am sooo sorry," filled the room. I tried to clean up my mess, but my hands kept jerking and I kept dropping the glass.

"MACKENZIE!" she yelled in rage.

The Queen draped a blanket over her bare body as she kept yelling.

"Get out! You are not welcome here until you make this up to me! Just ... just get out and go to your quarters ... NOW!"

I quickly got up, stared at them with fear in my eyes, and left the room as I closed the door, and as I shut the door, I lean back up against it, place my hands where my pounding hesrt is over my chest, and say in a low voice:
"Woah."

Sitting on my bed, I tske off my heels. I didn't mean to see anything, but she has always thought that I am out to get her. Well, she has thought that ever since my ex-boyfriend became her ex and my new boyfriend.

I have no idea how I will make this up to her. As I put my last heel on the floor, I lay myself own.

"I didn't realize how tired I was," I say to myself.

Snuggling deeper into my mattress and closing my eyes, I think to myself, - Maybe I'll have a chance right now to take a nap. The Queen probably won't my help for a while,- and I let my mind just wander.
