{COMPLETED} The Bloody Leader

13. Truth be told pt.2

Queen Elizabeth's POV

I wake up from a kiss on the forehead, I rub my eyes and sit up spotting my lover in his armor “Time already?” “..yup,” I look down and get out of bed and walk to the King.

“Hey, promise me you'll come back home safe and sound,” “I can't promise that Eliza,” “Well promise me that you try to come back,.. for Thomas at least?” I ask him genuinely, he looks at me, his eyes where calming and reassuring, he takes my face a kisses me passionately, he let's me go, I look at him wishing he didn't stop but I also wish he wasn't leaving.

We head out our room and I notice Paul in the outfit Thomas would be wearing, at least I keep one of my boys, I think, i hear Addam sigh and leave my side “Addam,” “I have to leave,” Addam!” “Look around Eliza, the time for war is now, I have to go,”. I look down and hug him.

He hugs me back but I don't let go, by the time we got to the bottom of the stairs he had to pry my hands off him, “I'll be back I promise Eliza,” I sigh and look back up at him. Just as they were about to leave I heard Thomas open his door, “Dad?” We both look back I nod and he comes running down the stairs, passes me and goes straight to Addam.

“Hey, hey I'll be back little T, I promise” that was his nickname, Thomas is smaller than his father and he's smaller than his grand father Thomas, he's the smallest male in his family, “Just be safe and try to come back,” “ok, I will, I promise,” he let's go and walks back toward me, Addam and Paul turn around and give us good bye gestures me and Thomas gives them back.

We watched as the army of trained men awaited the king and fill in Prince, after a short lecture they headed off into the woods, I stayed looking at the window Thomas left and was heading up the stairs, i look down and notice the window just barely cracked open.

“Thomas, what is this?” “What is what mother?” “The window, why is it open?” I saw him tense up and shoot right back around “w-what do you mean?”, I give him a serious face and ask if he's been sneaking out, before answering he hesitated “I'm not to um sure why the windows open,” “Thomas don't lie to me,” “I'm not I sw-” “Thomas be honest, did you or did you not sneak out?” “....yes…” he said softly “..I'm sorry, I just wanted to see what it felt like to be out past your word… I'm sorry,” “it's ok Thomas as long as you're okay its fine,”

I notice his face started to go pink, he was biting his lip like normal, he was hiding something and I could feel it “what else are you not telling me?” “Um I uh… Nevermind,” “Thomas, you know better than that, what else are you hiding?” I saw as he tensed up more and  Stuttered even more “well I um you see mom I uh, I...I..I. I met someone,” “Really who?!” I became Intrigued by his words.

“Well I met a guy… he's nice and.. tall,” “Do you like sed guy?” I ask, his face goes completely red and I start to squeal “Is this “guy” going to be my future son-in-law?” “MOM!” “I'm sorry, I'm sorry, i'm just so excited my baby found true actual love,” “well I don't know if it's true yet but-” “what's his name!? Is he from another kingdom!?”  I cut him off I felt like I was floating until I heard the name “Tord, his name is Tord J Larkin,”

I stop and look at Thomas nearly insane “D-Did you just say his last name is Larkin?” “Yes… why?” “What's his Kingdom?” I ask immediately “How did you know he's not from this Kingdom?” “WHAT IS HIS KINGDOM DAMN IT!?!” I saw him jump, he knew I knew the answer and slowly headed for the top of the stairs “The.. The Rose Kingdom, I'm sorry..” “Thomas, please tell me this is just a blushly, soft feeling for the twat?” I say taking a breath, I saw his face twist and turn as I finish speaking “He's not a twat! He's kind and gentle, and protecting!” “So it is the Prince huh?” “Yes mother it is and you know what I'm glad it is!” “Why?” “Because I never would've let anyone get that close to me! I'd never let anyone else just take my face and kiss my lips like he did!” Both of our eyes widen Thomas covers his mouth and runs to his room i run after.

“Thomas!” “Go away!” “Look you little trader, I still am your mother now open up this door!” I hear him move from the door, he moves some things around and then unlocks the door, he opens it very slightly. “Come out… now,” I demand, he does very hesitantly “Now Thomas,” I say, I noticed he was hiding something behind his back “What's that?” “Nothing,” “Thomas!” I say through a grated grin, he backs up a little, fear fills his body.

I moved closer to him, he tensed and threw powder in my face and called me crazy, I wiped my eyes, clearing my vision and noticed he ran and hid somewhere, as a boy we'd play hide and seek till this day I remember were and what they where so I checked them first.

The kitchen, in the floor cabinet, not there, under the curtains, not there, behind his chair, not there either, I scan the entire Kingdom and still no sight, “where are you, you little prick?” I stand in the middle of the room and close my eyes, listening, I hear something move on the top floor I open my eyes and see Thomas holding the vase on the pedestal.

“Found you!” I yell, I run up the stairs and grab his collar, pulling him to my chest, yes he was taller than me but not as tall as Addam, I hold him there and take out my blade and hold it against his neck “Now I would never use my poisonous safety dagger on my own son right?” I say removing it and tapping my lip “well that's simi right,” I giggled.

I hit the back of his knees dropping him to the floor, I put back my blade and drag him down the stairs to the dungeon, once we get to the flower I lean him against the cells bed and shackle his wrists together. I step back as he slowly gets up, by that point I was in the other side of the cell, he attempts walking to the door but get pulling back by the chains.

“You're psychotic,” “Oh Tommie I know,” “but chaining up your own child just be he fell in love the… the-” “The enemy, love, your lover is the enemy, we simply cannot have that now,” I say lifting his Chin “plus Tommie, he's the Prince, he's out at war, he'll die… and so will you,” “what?” “Yes Tord was it? Will die during war, you well you know the persigure,” “and if dad finds out?” “Oh, I'll just say you ran away because you thought he wasn't going to come back,” “But I'm your only child, why about a new era-” “I'm still fertile and so is your father, we can make another you, a better and improved you,”

I watch as I see his face drain, we can not have a hiccup in our Kingdom, I say to myself walking away, the more he struggles the more the gubby metal rub his skin and the more likely his circulation being cut. “I'll see you tomorrow in the night, that's your sentencing,” “You're so fucking crazy,” “believe me Tommie, mother knows best, and if that means killing my own son I'll do so, don't make me use my dagger on you please, the death would be slow and painful, that poison does not move fast,” I hear as he starts crying “just let me out, I'll forget about Tord I'll act like I never liked him, I'll act like he never kissed me and I'll act like I never kissed him. Just please let me out, spare your sons life please!?”.

I tap my chin like I'm interested and roll my eye mid way up to the sky “hm, tempting but, once you hiccup you always hiccup, sorry love but you're staying here until tomorrow night,” I say. I leave the door that connects his cell to the hallway, he's isolated and can't do much “Ryan, guard this door with your life, if something or someone gets in that'll be you next in the sentencing table,” I order once I got his approval I returned upstairs and continued my day, satisfied with what I did, I just cleansed the Kingdom from a horrible sin, I think and take three sighs of relief.
