CHAPTER SIXTEEN

JUSTINE'S POV

The anger I felt in me when my Lizzy told me her stupid step
sister burnt the clothes I bought for her was not of this world.

I literally was about to drive over to her house and get her out
of there but I don't know how she managed to calm my nerves.

Thank the heavens I kept the beautiful dress I bought for her to
wear to the dance aside.

The love I have for this girl is so strong that I would do
anything and everything for her and I can’t wait till she turns 18 before I get
her out of that shithole of a house.

The day of the dance came by so quickly and I was extremely
excited about it because I would get to see my queen wear a beautiful dress and
have the best time of her life.

I sent a taxi over to her to deliver the dress and texted her to
go outside discreetly to collect it so her witch of a step Mother or sister
wouldn't do anything to it.

“This dress is for you my thick queen, wear it and I will come
later to come pick you up for the school dance.” I texted Lizzy.

I didn't know what was going to happen later, but I was definitely
going to pick up my queen for the school dance come what may.

I was restless for hours and kind of worried about the dance
because I wanted everything to go smoothly.

It was time, and I dressed up in a black tuxedo and my versace
shoe and drove off to her house.

There was a little bit of traffic but it was moving slowly so I
had to exercise patience.

I texted her again telling her I was on my way over to her house
but I got no response.

After what seemed like forever, I finally arrived and so I called
her and she picked up.

“My queen, I am outside your house.”

“Really??” she asked, surprised.

“Didn't you see my text message??” I asked.

“Oh no I didn't see anything.”

“Come outside please.” I said in anticipation.

“But I am not ready yet.” She said.

“Don’t worry my queen, take as much time as you need…I will be out here waiting for you.” I said reassuringly.

After about 20 minutes, she finally opened the door but didn’t come
outside as she hid behind the door.

“Lizzy, what is the matter??” I asked.

“I don’t look good.” She said.

“Come outside first and let me be the judge of that.”

She walked out slowly and as soon as I set my eyes on her, I instantly became dumbfounded.

The gown I bought for her suited her so much that I didn't know my
mouth was slightly opened while staring at her.

Her thick body hugged the gown so well that her assets were in
perfect display.

I had to open the door, and walked up to her because she was too
shy to come over to me.

“How do I look??” she asked as she covered her face with her hands.

“Baby, you look breathtaking.” I said.

“You are lying to me.” she said shyly.

“No, my love I am not…..you look absolutely beautiful my thick
queen.” I said smiling in pride.

“ Are you sure??” she asked.

“Yes my love.”

“Thank you.”

“There is nothing to thank me for.” I said.

“By the way, where is your wicked step Mother and sister??” I
asked with my brows raised.

She laughed and hitted my arm slightly.

“What?? Am I wrong??...She is like the wicked stepmother in
Cinderella and the only difference is that the one in Cinderella  had two
other wicked daughters.” I said with a smirk.

Lizzy burst into laughter.

“She is not at home, I think she traveled and as for Angel, she
already went to the dance.” She said.

“That is amazing ....it seems like the heavens are on our side
today.”

“I guess.” she said.

“Let's go.”

I guided her to the car and opened the door for her to sit and
then I went back to my seat and drove off.

“Hope you are going to dance today???” I asked as we drove off.

“I don’t know how to dance.” She said.

“you have never danced before??”

“Only when I was younger.” She said.

“No problem dear.”

As I drove off, I noticed a bit of hold up on the way but I went through another route.

We got to the school and the parking lot was already filled up with cars and so I had to look for a perfect spot to park my car.

After doing that, We came down from the car and headed inside.

The dance floor was decorated so beautifully but not as beautiful
as the queen walking side to side with me.

Students, teachers and even parents filled up the place and
although the music wasn't too loud, it was still difficult to hear one another.

“Lizzy, why don’t you go and mingle and also try to enjoy yourself??”

“I want to stay with you.” She said.

“You won’t enjoy the night if you stay close to me and besides to avoid suspicion or unnecessary attention towards yourself it’s better you try to mingle.”

“But I don’t want to go.” She said with a sad look on her face.

“ Why??”

“Because I will get bullied again.” She said.

“I assure you Lizzy that no one here will dare bully you especially not on my watch okay??”

“ Alright.” She said reluctantly.

I saw her walk away to go meet her friend.

This was definitely going to be a long dance.
