The Southern Queen,

Chapter 3

CLEO'S POV

I woke up inside of a room that has a massive bed. It that has a color of red. The room is painted with bright colors of red and gold, if you would look at it you would think that the room is made for royalty. I looked at myself and I was shocked to see that I am no longer wearing the clothes I wore when I arrived here. I wore a dress or more like a gown that is color yellow, more like a gold. It's silk flowing freely to my body, and I like that because it's not fitted, it just hangs loose. A belt around my waist is the one who keeps its curve. It is a backless type, and it has a long slit on the left side revealing my legs. I kind of, feel like I look hot in this dress even though it's plain. I was just wearing a dress, no under garments or anything. Just the plain dress and since the dress is silk and soft, my nipples are showing its curve into the dress. I can't help but be shy. The dress is also plain that makes the nipple's mark more visible.  I looked around me and I saw a large window at the right side of the room, I saw people running out of their houses and falling to their knees. Then I heard them shout,

"HAIL TO THE KING!"

Hail to the king?

Wow! The people in here are kind of weird. The last time I check it is democracy in here. I walked outside to find out what was the commotion all about, but the people are too focused on what was happening in front of them so, I asked my question out loud.

"What is the commotion all about?"

All the people look at my way, but nobody answered me. Woo, this is embarrassing. After they looked at me, they look in front of them again, so I got curious as to what are they looking at. I looked in front only to be met by golden eyes. Those eyes, I knew those eyes, but I can't remember where I first saw it. My heart began to pound loudly on my chest and before I can even make a move, I was pinned to the wall with the man who owned those beautiful golden eyes. 

"Leave us."

He whispered, but it seems like all the people on the village heard his command because they all begin to leave the clearing and soon, I was alone with this stranger who pinned me to the wall. What he did, shock the hell out of me.

HE KISSED ME!!!!!!

I fight over. I begin to punch him in the strongest way I can but to no avail, it seems like I did nothing to him because he didn't even budge and he just continued to kiss me. After a while he let me go and I took that opportunity to slap his face. Shock and confusion were written all over his face. When he faced me again.

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?"

I shouted at him. This seems to snap him from the shock of getting slap. I don't know if it was just me, or his eyes really turned deep black. His breathing became heavy, and his hands turn into a fist. 

"What. The. Hell. Is. You're. Problem.?"

He calmly asked me, but it is obvious that he is trying his best to remain calm. 

"I should be the one asking that to you. What the hell is your problem? Did you always jump into a stranger and kiss them without their permission? You are unbelievable."

I said pushing him away from me then I wrapped my arms around my chest. I don't have a f*cking bra or panties, and this hot freaking man just kiss the hell out of me. The confusion in his face seems to increase more as I was talking.

"Stranger? Me? A stranger to you? If this is a joke Cleo quit, it." He said. 

I think he totally forgot that I slapped his face which is a relief because I don't want him getting too angry and punching the living day lights out of me.

"Yes, because I don't know who you are and who the hell Cleo is." I said to him. 

He looks like he doesn't understand me at all. I thought he would ask me another question but instead he walked in circle in front of me and then he wiped his face with his hands and run a hand through his hair.

"ALPHA DENVER!"

He shouted. I flinch at the intensity of his voice. The strength that I used when I slapped him seems to crumble as I became intimidated with him. He notices that, so when the man who I suppose is Alpha Denver arrived he talk a little calmly.

"What is wrong with her?"

He asked pointing a finger on me while looking at the Alpha Denver guy.

"It seems like she lost her memory. Aliyah, bring her here because she said the Queen is in confused stage. She saw her a week ago, but she also said to me that the Queen act like human. Then she overheard the conversation of the Queen with the humans. The Queen certainly lost her memories, and she follows Aliyah here in hope of finding who she is. "

The so-called Alpha Denver said. Wait did he just call me Queen? Ow, never mind. I have a lot of things to worry about than being called a Queen.

"Ahem! Can you stop talking like I wasn't here?"

The two of them look at me at the same time. I ignored Alpha Denver instead I look at this stranger who kissed me. I walk towards them with my arms still crossed over my chest.

"I am capable of answering your questions, so you don't need to ask them to anyone but me."

The man who kissed me let out a deep breath.

"Okay, Alpha Denver can you lend us a place where we can stay tonight? Jason and the others will arrive soon. As for you Cleo, I believe I have all the answers to your question. So, follow me."

As much as I don't want to follow him, I need to do it, because in the first place the reason why I 'am in this place is because I need answers. He walked inside the room where I just slept, and he sit comfortably in the corner of the bed and me?

I stand awkwardly in front of him. I have no plans on sharing the bed with him specially not when I'm wearing nothing but a piece of silk.

"So, what now?"

He asked me.

"How about we start with you telling me your name and what is your connection to me."

I answered sharply. I want to get this thing over with and I don't want to see this man again. He's so... Never mind. I can't find a word to describe him.  

"Well then, as I go on with the story why don't you sit on the other side of this bed and listen to me comfortably."

I hesitate for a moment. I really don't want to sit in the same bed with that man, but my feet still hurt with the walking I did before. My whole body is practically aching. I let out a deep breath as I walk towards the other side of the bed.
