Dorian Gray: REIGN

Queen Katherine has to grow up

„ I'm not Lucy anymore. I'm not the princess who cares only about friends and which dress to wear. I'm the Queen. High Queen with weird names, with too many names. I have to start acting like Queen. Like I should. "
Lucy got the message.
„ Maybe should I... take off this phone forever? I don't know any Queens who has a phone. "
She read the message. It's from Zoya.
„ Hi, Lucy, Queen Lucy, Eretria, Queen Victoria II whatever. Please just say to your „ husband " that I hate him. And I know what he did. I hate him almost that much like... like... like you know what I hate the most. You know. You were my best friend and you know. You, my best friend betrayed me twice. Maybe it was your idea? To kill him? Whoever did this, I hate you both. Is it a sin to hate King and Queen? Maybe. If it is, and if I shouldn't come to my home, you know the way too good, and kill me too. Don't send a kisses. Your ex-best friend. "
Lucy didn't know what happened. She found Dorian and read him the message.
- What the hell is she talking about?!
- What a hate she sent you. She shouldn't be that mean to the Queen. She is hurting you.
- I don't care. She is my best friend. - said Lucy.
- She was your friend, Katherine. She isn't anymore. Even she told you it.
- I love her. What did you do?
- Nothing. I don't know.
- Alright so I will go to her and we will talk.
- But Katherine please... be careful. Harry will
go with you.
- No, not him. Muriel will go with me.

Lucy and Muriel went to Zoya's house.
Zahra opened the door.
- Oh... Lucy. I mean sorry, Queen Katherine. Everyone heard about your new name what Dorian made. - said Zahra.
- I'm Lucy to you. - said Lucy smiling. - Where is Zoya?
- In her own room... - answered Zahra.
- Thank you. Will you wait here with Muriel? And I'd drink some tea.
- Of course, qu-, Lucy.
Lucy smiled and went to the Zoya's room.
Zoya was listening music.
- Oh... our beautiful Queen visited me. Will it be my last visit ever? - asked Zoya.
- Zoya stop acting like it. We...
- Were.
- Friends. - ended Lucy. - Alright we were. But it happened. You know me as well as no one. You know that I loved you and I still do. Don't you? But it doesn't matter to you, as I can see. And as I can know. I know you so well therefore I know you won't forgive me. Even if Liam did. Zahra did. Mya did. Everyone did. Not only you. Alright, just tell me what happened. What Dorian did? He doesn't know what the hell you're talking about. So don't I.
- He is really that stupid that he was thinking you won't know? Goooood. - said Zoya.
- I'm sorry?
- Yesterday almost Josh died. Dorian wanted him dead because Josh was in love with you. With his Queen , with his wife.
- WHAT?
- Yes.
Lucy cannot believe in it.
- Dorian couldn't do this...
- You know he could.
- I...
- It's not your fault I know. - said Zoya. - But your husband's. Can you do something with that?
- I can only talk with him. And make a protectors for Josh.
- It's enough. - said smiling Zoya.
- But...I can't...
- Kill. - ended Zoya. - I know. I don't want it.
They were few minutes in silence then Zoya broke it saying:
- He is terrible person, we know. I hope he is better as a husband.
- Sometimes. It depends of his humour.
- Hahaha!
- I mean, he named me Katherine. After his mom and it was so cute. And last night was... good. But at the morning when I woke up he wasn't with me anymore.
- Ouch.
- He isn't always with me when I need him. - said Lucy. She was mad at Dorian.
- Oh, I can feel you.
Zoya hugged Lucy.
- What I did that I deserved you hugg? - asked Lucy.
- You deserved even my kiss. - Zoya said it and kissed Lucy in the cheek.
They hugged again.

Lucy and Zoya went to the kitchen. There Muriel and Zahra were talking about Queen Laguna.
- Lucy, Zoya! Did you two... - started Zahra.
- Yes, we did. - said Zoya.
Even Lucy was schocked that answer. But she didn't say anything.
- Great! - said Zahra.
- But Lucy you're a bit sad. - said Muriel.
- I am because... I feel that I'm not good Queen. I'm too young to be her.
- Lucy, you are a good Queen. - said Zoya. - You promised to protect Josh. I know that we will be safe with you. If there would be only Dorian as a King without you... I would leave this country. - said Zoya.
- Haha, thank you Zoya. - said Lucy.
- So... Lucy Eretria Katherine or whatever... we are happy that you are our Queen as well as you are our friend. - said Zahra.
They all hugged. Even Muriel hugged them.
