Holding my head in my hands, I could feel the stress making its way through my body. My eyes were bloodshot from crying about my jealous ex popping up and ruining my life.
All I could hope for is that T'Challa doesn't believe him and that we can move on this nonsense. Hearing footsteps, I sat up and prepared for the worse.
"We need to talk Reign." He said as I sighed.
Turning to face him, my eyes swelled with tears as the look of anger and disappointment filled his beautiful face. Blinking away the tears to the best of my abilities, I stood and grabbed the magazine that had separate pictures of me and my ex on the front cover.
"Where do you want to talk?" I whispered.
"The bedroom. I need an explanation on what the hell is going on and why are you on a cover of a magazine that says Cheating Scandal with Queen of Wakanda!" He says as his voice raised slightly.
The thing was T'Challa never raised his voice at me and in this moment I felt him slipping away because of the lies my ex told in an interview last week. Hell, I didn't even know the fucker would be thinking about me or be in town.
"Baby I swear nothing is happening with him and I. You're the only man I want and need. I married you and vowed to be with you, not him. Can't you see that he's trying to drive a wedge between us? I don't want that conniving mischievous asshole!" I said as tears fell down my face.
"If you don't want him then why the hell did he say that there were text messages and that y'all were meeting up behind my back? Explain that shit to me!" He said stepping towards me.
I immediately took a step back because I wasn't liking this side of him at all. Even when we've had small arguments in the past, he has never acted like this. I was for once was scared of my husband and I hated it.
"Those were lies! Please you have to believe me?! I never really go anywhere else besides conferences,interviews, photoshoots, or social events or parties! How could I have possibly even have had time to meet up with him! I can't believe that you're choosing to believe him over your fucking wife! You're the one I'm loyal too, not him!" I yell out as a lump formed in my throat from crying.
In the mist of our yelling, I didn't even hear his mother walk in. It wasn't until she cleared her throat that we noticed her presence.
"Both of y'all sit down. Now, I don't normally concern myself in your problems but today I'm going too." She said sternly.
I sat down and wiped my face. He sat three chairs away from me, causing two tears to fall. His mother sat in between us.
"Reign, sweetheart I want you to tell your side of the story, ok? If you feel as if you don't have the energy to do this then we can do this tomorrow morning." She said rubbing my back as I gathered myself.
"We need to do this now." I said as I looked at him.
"I agree." He mumbled.
Taking a deep breath, I sat up and prepared what I wanted to say in my head.
"T'Challa, it's been years since I've seen or heard from Gabe. The last time we spoke was when I kicked him out for cheating. Since you believe that there are text messages, here goes my phone. You can look through it, I don't have anything to hide." I said before sliding my phone towards him.
"You know, it's hurts like hell that you would believe some fake news before even talking to me first. Because if the tables were turned, I wouldn't even think about believing that bullshit before talking to my husband! Until the smoke clears, I think that it'll be best if we don't sleep in the same room. I'll take one of the guest bedrooms." I said looking at him.
He slid my phone back down to me and sat there for 5 minutes. I could see the regret on his face once he realized I was tell the truth. Looking up at me, my heart screamed out for him as he started to cry.
"Baby, I'm so sorry. You're right, I never should've believed him or the lies. I'm sorry I raised my voice at you, I promise to never do that again. I love you too and I'm so sorry for hurting you. Can you forgive me please?" He said as his voice cracked.
"I'll give an answer to that in the morning. Right now I'm glad you apologized and relieved that you see that you were wrong. I love you T'Challa but don't ever jump to conclusions like that again please. We're a unit, a team and we can't have anyone or anything come between us. We have a country to rule, we can't be caught slipping." I said as he stood and walked towards me.
Standing up, I hugged him. I was glad that the situation was over but I knew that this was just the beginning of Gabe trying to ruin me.
"We'll have to come up with a plan to stop Gabe. Just because you and I are on one accord again, doesn't mean he'll stop. I think we should do interviews tomorrow together and individually. We can't stay silent because it'll make it look like it's true and it's not." I said as I wiped his tears.
"I agree. I'll call and set everything up for us tomorrow morning. We're not sleeping in separate bedrooms. We are sleeping in the same room and that's all. No ifs, ands or buts about it." He said as I smiled.
"I love you T'Challa." I said as he pressed his forehead against mine.
"I love you too. Thank you mother for helping us. We greatly appreciate it." He said as we looked at her.
She smiled before kissing both of us on the forehead and walking out. T'Challa grabbed the magazine and threw it away. I smiled at him as I realized that we'll be able to conquer anything as a couple because of our strength.
