Wait for the Signal: A Royalty Steve Rogers Story

Seven

"You're finished! Snooping through my stuff? You washed up whore!"

Steve was putting on an act. To get me out.

We had a plan set. I was to be off to Everett's.

"I..I'm sorry."

"You better get the fuck out of my kingdom! You are absolute scum!"

I knew he was making it all up. But it still hurt. He was good at what he did. His acting was one of a kind already.

I walked out with my bag. He followed as I started walking.

A carriage would pick me up at the edge of the kingdom. I knew that.

I glanced back one last time. Steve stood there. I continued walking.

I was off. I was nervous and scared.

But I was gonna be alright. I trusted Steve and Sarah.

~~~

After hours on a carriage, I had arrived. Washington DC.

I had to follow Sarah's orders. In the back gate I would meet a woman named Natasha. She is a friend of Steve's.

I got in, looking around. A woman with red hair came over.

"Elenor?"

I nodded. She smiled.

"It's nice to see you here. Or should I say, Madame Elena?"

"Oh my. So I take it Sarah has told you?"

I had a fake name set. Not that Joseph even knew my name before.

"Yes. Everett is ready to meet you. He is a very nice man. He is happy to help you."

"Oh good. So what do you do here..."

"Trained assassin actually. I work with Steve on the avengers."

The avengers. Steve's little band of people from every kingdom in the country. He was a strong man. They all had certain attributes.

I grabbed my belongings, following her.

"This is your room," she said. "I am just down the hall if you need anything. Let's go meet Ross. He's excited to see you."

I put my belongings down. It was much nicer than mine at home.

"This is lovely."

"It is one of our maids rooms."

"No...how? I never had anything-"

"Joseph love."

I smiled. "Right. He's an arse."

"That he is. Would you like to come meet Everett?"

"Yes please."

She led me out. We walked together through the halls. It was a beautiful place. It was not the castle, that was meant for a man named Nick Fury. But it was still wonderful.

We met in a large room. Everett came over.

"Elenor. Hello." He said.

"Hello. It is nice to meet you."

"You as well. I hope the ride was alright. Gosh when I got the news I knew I had to help. I owe Prince Steve a favor."

"Well thank you. I know it is not the most comfortable situation."

"Oh please darling.."

"I just cannot thank you enough. I will help with whatever duties you need here. I can cook, clean, sew. Any of it."
