Queen's Princess

Chapter 60

Blinking my eyes open, I looked around to see I was in our own house. Who knows how long it had been since the encounter with Junkrat and Roadhog. I turned to see Odessa was sitting on the edge of the bed. Slowly crawling towards her, the bed creaked and she looked over her shoulder at me. Her eyes widened as she moved to face me.

"Y/N?"

"Odessa?" I asked.

"Y/N!" she gently picked me up and set me in her lap, wrapping her arms around me, placing her head on my shoulder. "Y-You're ok," she said in a whisper.

"I-I'm fine," I said. 

She buried her face in my shoulder and her shoulders trembled. I ran my hand up and down her back while my other hand reached up and brushed her hair. I heard her sniffle before she took in a sharp breath, sounding like she was trying to push down a sob. I pulled away, placing my hands on her cheeks, bringing her head up so I can look into those amber eyes of hers. They were beautiful, but they were overrun with the tears in her eyes that it made them look almost dull.

"Dez, why are you cryin', babe?" I asked, almost crying myself.

"I thought I was gonna lose ya," she said. 

"Oh, Odessa," I said, pulling her into another hug. 

How could such a strong woman such as Odessa be so emotional when it comes to the person she loves? It was simple. I meant everything to her and when something means this much to a person, losing it will ruin their world. So they do everything in their power to protect whatever they cherish most in the world. And to me, I was Odessa's world. I was her treasure, her princess, her lover, and most importantly, her wife. Once she calmed herself down enough, she pulled away and looked at me.

"I-I'm sorry, Y/N," she said.

"What are ya sorry about?" I asked.

"I-I kind of lost myself when I saw Roadhog impale ya. T-The guards have the footage since I installed security cameras after I threw out Junkrat and Roadhog. They have the files if you wish to watch it. But I'm mostly sorry for not bein' there when ya needed me."

"Odessa," I said, kissing her cheeks, tasting the salty tears that were staining her skin. "Ya don't need to be sorry. You were there for me when I needed ya. You got me out of there. Sure I'm a bit banged up, but I will heal in time. I'm still your princess and I'm tougher than I look," I chuckled.

She chuckled slightly, a small smile appearing on her face, "I just. I lost a lot of people in my life. The important people in my life. And I don't want to lose ya either."

"I'm gonna be with ya 'till the bitter end, my love. So ya better get used to it."

She laughed, placing a kiss on my cheek, "Ya know how to cheer me up. I thank you and appreciate it."

"I'm always goin' to be the one to lift ya up. You've done that the whole time I knew ya and I want to do the same."

I heard her smile as she re-positioned herself to where she was sitting back against the pillows. I rested my head in her chest while our legs got entangled between one anothers. Her head rested against the headboard and the pads of her fingers were running up and down my back. 

"I unfortunately need to head back to the office buildin'," she whispered.

"Can I come with ya?"

"No. You should stay here and get some rest. Your wounds are still healin'," she said, carefully picking me up and placing me down on the bed. "I won't be long," she said and kissed my forehead. "I'll see ya later, love."

"Bye, Dez," I whispered as she walked out of the bedroom, giving me a wink before opening the door and walking out of the house.

I waited a little bit before I slowly got out of bed, getting my shoes on, and walking out of the house. I made my way towards the gates and knocked on the door to the guard tower. After a few seconds, the door opened up.

"Ya have the tapes from the security cameras, right?" I asked.

"Yes."

"I need to see 'em."

The guard nodded and let me come into the tower. We up the tower, walked across the gates into the other guard tower, and into the main part. The guard sat down and opened up the files that were saved.

"There ya are," he said and got up.

"Thanks," I said, sitting down and looking through the footage.

I found the one where it was us confronting Junkrat and Roadhog. Speeding it up a tad, I found where Roadhog used his hook to impale me. Hearing Odessa scream my name in such a manner was terrifying to say the least. Junkrat shot at Odessa, but used the cart they had, she ducked behind it. When Junkrat came out from the side, she threw Gracie and it hit him in the shoulder. She called it back, bringing Junkrat towards her. Using Carnage, she smacked him across the face. Next up was Roadhog. This was going to be a harder fight. She poked her head out from the cart and shot multiple rounds at him. He tried to shoot back, but similar with how she used Gracie with Junkrat, she threw the knife at him, it getting stuck in his hand. He dropped me onto the ground and removed Gracie. Odessa called it back with her gauntlet and threw it back at him, this time, lodging into his shoulder. He tried to remove it, but using the cart as leverage, she jumped up, brought out Carnage, and swung at him, cutting him across the chest. She came over and ripped Gracie from his shoulder, cutting along his neck, but it wasn't deep enough to kill him.

"How dare ya lay a finger on her!" Odessa yelled at Roadhog, her voice sounding like she was about to cry, but she was trying to keep her composure.

There was a grunt from Roadhog before she used the butt end of her gun, knocking him unconscious. The footage ended with her rushing towards me, making sure I was ok. She wasn't kidding. From the fighting I have seen come from her, she did everything in her power to not harm the victim to an extent. But seeing how she let out her rage and anger in such a manner, scared me more than the time she found out Junkrat and Roadhog stole from her.
