Queen// h.s

9.

My entire body was shaking as I walked down the hallway with guards standing on either sides.
One of them is with Eric, one of them wants to kill me.
I peered down at the note again before entering Anne's room.
"Anne?" I called and took a seat on the plush seat.
I read the note again.

We're watching, every move.
Maybe you aren't really fit to be a queen huh?
- Eric

A shiver went down my spine as I folded the letter.
I didn't get a reply from Anne so I went to Harry.
"Hey" I poked his shoulder as he faced me.
"Athena I'm busy right now-" but I didn't let him finish and handed him the note.
He shot up from his seat once he read it and grabbed my elbow before dragging me to the car. Everything happened really quickly and the next thing I knew we were back in the warehouse.

Niall and Zayn were on either of my side while, Harry, Liam and Louis towered over the guards.

"One of you guys or two, have betrayed me," anger was evident in Harry's voice as paced in front of them.
"Your life may be spared if you come forward and tell me if you delivered this note," Louis held it up in front of the guards.
I hated being the reason of all this drama. But again, it's not my mistake, all of this would be avoided if Harry hadn't kidnapped me.
I sighed causing Harry to give me a 'you okay?' expression at which I shrugged.
Honestly, I don't know if I'm fine. There's alot going on.

"I don't want to stay here," I finally spoke up and left the basement.
Anne was standing outside with another young woman, elder than Harry and I.
Before I could say anything I was enveloped in a hug by Anne.
"I'm fine. I promise," I rubbed her back and pulled away.
"Harry and the boys will find that person and not spare him," the blonde girl spoke.
"I'm Gemma, Harry's elder sister by the way," she introduced herself and I smiled at her.
"You're really pretty," I complimented.

Gemma, Anne and I spent the rest of the day in Robert's office with him.
Harry stride in followed by the lads.
"We're going back to my house, can't have mum and Gemma's life be in danger," Harry roughly grabbed my elbow.
"Do not take your stress and anger out on me," I gritted my teeth and yanked my arm away.
"Come on then," he walked out to the car and we went to Anne's house to grab our stuff.
I thanked her a lot of times before heading back home.

There were a new batch of guards already waiting.
Harry let me get in first and I went up to my room.
Two guards stood outside and I awkwardly smiled before getting in and locking the door.
"Do not lock the door Athena," Harry shouted and I unlocked it before getting inside the bathroom.
I filled the tub with warm water and put a lavender bath bomb in before stepping in.
I sighed at how good it felt, I hadn't been this relaxed in a while.
I closed my eyes.

He's nothing without her.
She's his queen, she is his will to do stuff.
And you know what else she is?
His weakness.
Harry Styles is nothing without Athena Patras.
But she can be a lot more without him.
If we get her, the Styles will go down and we will get everything we ever wanted

Harry entered the bathroom while I was in the tub.
"Hey! Where are your manners?!" I quickly covered my chest, luckily the rest of my body was covered by the purple water.
"I'm sorry. Can I join?" he asked and I raised my eyebrows.
"No," I grabbed a towel and wrapped a towel around me before leaving.
But he grabbed my wrist pulling me back on him.
"Really Harry? You wanna see me naked without my consent, I won't allow that," I looked into his green lifeless and tired eyes.
"I'm just very tired and want some physical affection," he practically begged and I sighed before dropping the towel.
His eyes traced my body before we got in the water. My back was pressed up against his chest, his eyes were closed as his chin rested on my shoulder. Heavy and stable breathes left him as I played with his ringed fingers.
"I messed up. I'm the reason you're going through this," he spoke and I almost felt sorry for him.
"Only if I didn't kidnap you and let my greed take over, you'd be fine," he kept going.
I turned around completely, facing him.
"Keep going," I folded my arms across my chest.
"I'm sorry," he sighed and the corners of my mouth lifted up.
"It's okay," I shrugged and he smiled at me, a genuine smile that showed his dimples.
"Now can I leave, I wanna get some sleep," I stood up and wrapped a towel around me, getting out of the bathroom.

I looked at his shirt laying on the bed, I really wanted to wear it. I bet it smelled of his manly cologne and was softer than the duvet.
"Go ahead. Take it," he stood behind me, just in a towel wrapped around his waist.
"I- no I got my stuff," I pulled out my Rose gold pj set (I'll insert a pic for better visuals)

I stride past him to the bathroom and quickly put that on before checking myself out in the mirror.
I walked out while putting my hair up in a messy bun and Harry was laying on the bed only in boxers.
I cleared my throat and he looked up at me, raising his eyebrows.
"What?"
"You're not allowed to sleep in this room let alone my bed, out you go" I pointed at the door and he sat up.
"What if Eric's men barged in? How will I protect you?"
"I can protect myself see," I pulled out my dagger and put in on the bed side table.
"Now leave," I pushed him out and shut the door before he could say anything.
Let's just say I didn't get a good night's sleep.
