The Princess Can Kick Ass

CHAPTER 17- GOING BACK

There we stood. Face to face. Not saying a single word.

I felt so opened and exposed.

I instantly placed my hands on my stomach to hide my huge baby bump but it was like the size of a whale so it was almost impossible to even try to hide.

Of course her eyes moved down to my whale like belly and she gasped.

"Is this why you quit?" she asked pointing at my over-large stomach.

I rubbed my belly in small circles while I slowly shook my head saying no.

"This came after?" she slowly stated not really as a question.

"Yes, your Highess, I'm only 5months. Umm can I help you with something?" I murmured feeling awkward.

"Umm yes, can I come in?" she asked kindly.

"I guess I have to let you in because your the Queen right?" I replied with a raised eyebrow.

"I guess so" she clarified before I opened the door to let her in. I looked outside to see all her bodyguards watching me intently.

I just rolled my eyes and shot the door on them. I hated how the palace changed the people who entered it. I refused to be changed.

I led her to the living room where Brittany was playing so I could keep an eye on her. The older children went to school so it was just me and the younger ones because Sonia worked in the day.

"So you babysit now?" she questioned shocked when she saw the twins and Brittany.

"No, I stay home with them. Sonia, their mom doesn't believe in a nanny" I informed.

"Oh, Kristin..." she began but asusual I cut her off.

"My real name is Sophie so please call me that" I muttered.

"Alright. Sophie I'm sure you know how Andros has been" she whispered looking down at her manicured fingernails.

"No I don't please enlighten me" I said sarcastically as I raised my eyebrows at her.

"Okay I know you don't like me but watch your attitude I'm still the Queen" she scolded.

"Okay. I know how Andros has been so what's that got to do with me?" I mumbled defeated.

"Your the only person who he acts himself around and I need my old Andros back" she whispered quietly looking like a ton of trucks dropped on her shoulders.

"Plus he has to choose a wife soon " she continued slowly.

"Ah!" I exclaimed jumping up from the sofa that I was sitting on.

"That's the real reason your here! Not because you miss your little Andros, it's because you want him to be okay with marrying someone he doesn't love. Well your about the most low life sadistic person I ever met" I screamed at her making her and the kids jump at my outburst.

I was so mad at her for being so selfish.

"You don't understand! Andros has to be King and this little foolish game he is playing is getting old. For thousands of years Queens and Kings have come and gone and the majority of them were never in love so Andros can live with it!" she screamed back at me.

I stopped in my tracks and all my anger was seeping away. That was it, huh?

That's what happened to her. She was forced into this lifestyle. She hadn't wanted to be Queen she wanted a normal life.

"You were in love with someone else and they forced you to marry the King?" I whispered feeling sorry for her.

"Yes. Madly in love. We were gonna get married but damn he wasn't from my world, he was poor and had no social status but I didn't care I wanted him but my parents were the snobby kind, they wanted me to marry someone of great status and wealth. I was forced into the Palace. For years I refused to sleep in the same room with Raphael, the king. It took me five years to realize that my life was never gonna change and that I was stuck with him. It was time to be come Queen and I was so scared. But I did it and then eventually Andros came along because we had to have a baby to be the future king or queen. It was the worst for us to have sex, it felt so wrong I hated every ounce of it that's why Andros is the only child" she muttered while tears rolled down her cheeks. She told me her secret. Probably no one knew except her and the King.

"What happened to the man you loved?" I questioned curiously.

"Well he never got married and he has to watch me everyday live my life as a Queen. I hate it so much. Giving up the crown to Andros would be the best thing ever" she responded quietly looking guilty.

So that's why she acted that way.

"So do you love the King now?" I asked.

"Yes. I do. It took fifteen years but I do love him alot" she said through dreamy eyes.

"So you gonna let Andros suffer because you did?" I muttered.

She watched me through sad eyes .

"Sophie..do you really love him?" she whispered.

"With all my heart, doesn't this belly prove it?" I asked teasingly.

"I guess it does. Well go get your man" she murmured while smiling happily at me.

Go get my man!?

Is she serious?

Was she really letting me get Andros?

"Well? Go!" she piped.

"I can't I have the kids" I exclaimed sadly.

"Drop them off by your mother or something" she pushed.

Sara was home so I could drop them off.

"Alright, lets go then!" I happily exclaimed.

I was going for my man! The man of my dreams.

My baby's daddy.

My everything.

The man who made me act like myself.

The man I fell in love with in one week.

Andros the future King of Spain.
