Jack, the king, and Dani, the queen, were sitting side by side on the throne and the boys were kneeling before them both
''Of course, you all remember Dani'' Jack told them ''she's finally seen the light and come here where she belongs. She is the queen. Boys, you are all going to worship and obey Queen Dani exactly the same way you worship and obey me. Do you understand boys?''
''Yes Sir'' they all said together
''Please Sir, what will we call her?'' Roger asked ''We call you Sir so what will we call our Queen?''
Jack looked at Dani ''How would you like the boys to address you?''
''Goddess will do''
''Ok Goddess it is''
Dani stared at the boys, she was in the mood to make them worship hard
''You know Jack, making them kneel before us is good but what about making them lie face down on the ground, ever asked them to do that? Its another good worship position''
Jack could already feel a boner coming on
''That is an awesome idea'' he said with excitement ''I have to admit I never thought about asking the boys to prostrate before me''
''Let's make them do it now''
''Yes let's. Ok boys get down on the floor, lie down flat with your faces on the floor, and worship us''
The boys did as they were told and got on their faces
Later on, Piggy found a moment to talk to Dani alone, but he felt nervous. Even though they had been friends and equals in Ralph's tribe, it was clearly going to be different now
''You've changed'' he said nervously ''you weren't like this before''
''Well so have you'' she said ''we've both changed. Face it the early days are over now and we've moved on''
''How is Ralph now?''
''Terrible but I don't care anymore. I hate him now''
''Why are you so angry and mean now?''
Dani looked at Piggy and Piggy felt scared in case she got mad. But Piggy was the only one who could ask her this and get away with it
''My sister is dead'' Dani told him, matter of factly ''My heart has been hardened and if I'm to stay here for life I want to enjoy myself the same way Jack does. Anyway Jack and I are together now, if he is king then, of course, I am queen, you understand?''
''Yes''
''Yes, what?''
''Yes goddess''
''Good. Now I know things are different but we'll get used to it. You will have to worship me the same as the others and not expect special treatment, ok?''
''Yes goddess''
''But between you and me I am pleased to see you getting healthier and losing weight. Jack has really done you some good Piggy''
''Yes Goddess, he has. King Jack is awesome''
