Thank you @belladeejah for the feedback on my story! I'm glad you liked Sydney and Jason in "The Princess and the Devil"!

I was leaning against Drew's car waiting for him to come out of the school. He smiled as he walked up to me. "Hey, Queenie."

"You brought your car today."

He stepped in front of me leaning over, his arms trapped me between his chest and the hood of the car. "I did."

"Will you drive me home?" I asked. "We really need to finish our project."

"We aren't done?"

I shook my head. "No, and we've had almost a whole semester to finish it."

"When's it due?" He asked.

"Right before prom so about two weeks."

He nodded. One of his hands moved up running his finger up my spine. I sucked in a breath. "Have you bought your dress yet?" I shook my head. "He pursed his lips nodding. "Okay hop in."

I waited for him to release me before climbing into the car. When we got to my house, we saw a news channel vans parked outside. "What the hell?"

Our guards let the car and all trying to keep reporters off our property. I jumped out of the car while it was still moving. "Queenie-"

I ran over to the front door. Police officers tried to grab me but I push them off. "Daddy."

"Regina doesn't make a scene," said dad. He was cuffed and officers were walking him out. "Follow us to the station."

"Regina get in the car right now." Said Drew pulling up next to me. "I'll drive you to the station but you have to get away from the reporters."

I nodded and got into the car. "Why are they here? Why are they taking him in?"

"I don't know Queenie." He said. He grabbed my hand. "We'll find out when we get there but for now we have to call your mom." I nodded pulling out my phone. On cue, I got a text.

MAMMA: Bambina I just heard. I'm stuck in surgery.

ME: Andrew and I are on our way to the station.

MAMMA: I'll be there as soon as I can.

"Regina you understand that you need to be calm when we get there. You can freak out or anything." I nodded. "Lemme hear you say it."

"I understand."

He kissed my knuckles. "Good girl." I leaned my head against the glass. "It'll be okay Queenie."

"How can you be sure?"

"Your dad's smart. He's gonna get through this."

I sighed. "I know. Mamma's gonna be a wreck though."

"I'll take care of her when she comes." He said quietly. "You just work on getting as much information as you can."

I nodded. Drew pulled up into a parking space in front of the main door. He came around to my side before I could run inside. He grabbed my hand. We walked inside and over to a reception desk. "Hi I'm Regina King, I need to speak to the detective who just arrested my father, Jason King."

"Well they are not here yet but you're welcome to wait."

"Excuse me is detective Stalder here yet?" Asked a man in his mid-forties.

"As I just told this young lady, he is not here yet."

"When he gets here, let him know that his suspect is to be put in FBI custody."

"FBI?" I practically shouted. Drew squeezed my hand in an effort to calm me. "And why is my father to be put in FBI custody?"

He looked at me in surprise. "Your father is Jason King?" He nodded. "Then you must be Regina, I'm agent Miles."

I slightly glared. "I'd say it's a pleasure but it really isn't."

"Regina." Warned Drew. "Don't say something you'll regret."

"And you are?"

"Andrew Grey."

"Ah Jackson and Amelia Grey's son."

"What evidence do you have against my father?" I asked. "I do have some right to know why my father has been arrested."

He nodded." That you do. There is surveillance footage of your father shooting at the docks and we found bullet fragments from your father's gun."

I opened my mouth to reply but was interrupted. "Sir detective Slader is here."

I ran past Agent Miles over to dad. "You're being put into FBI custody."

"Where's your mother?" He asked.

"Jason!" Yelled mamma as the door opened.

"I got her." Said Drew running over to her. "Tia calm down, let's go outside." He gently pulled her outside.

"Detective, get him processed then we'll take it from here."

Dad leaned down next to my ear. "Antonio is to be in charge if anything happens." He whispered. The detective began pulling him away. "Regina, do you understand? Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, sir."

"I'll be fine babygirl. Go take care of your mother." He called out. The detective brought him to the back of the station to be processed.

I left the station and walked over to Drew and mamma. "What is agent Miles doing here?"

I held her by her shoulders. "Dad is being put into FBI custody"

"The Hell he is." She growled. I stopped her from walking back inside. "He hasn't done anything." She whimpered.

"I know mamma, I'll figure it out. You need to go back to work."

She shook her head. "I can't go back to work right now."

"Then go home and sleep or go hang out with the twins or Annelise to calm down." She sighed running her hand through her hair. "It's going to be okay mamma."

She nodded. She leaned forward kissing the top of my head. She touched my hair. "I hope so Bambina. I really hope so."
