Queen ~Avengers

Chapter 9

When we got to the Sanctum Wong and Strange were already waiting outside for us. When they boarded the jet we were on our way to my compound. While we were landing Wong kept asking what I was going to cook for him.

"Is it lasagna, cottage pie, pizza, pasta, chicken, pork, lamb, beef-" before he could go on i cut him off by walking off the jet. I walk inside my building and see Jim standing, waiting for me.

Once everyone is inside the lobby of my building I start talking.

"Well everyone that knows where they're rooms are can leave and dinners at 7." I say, everyone that's been here before goes into the elevator and heads to their rooms.

I turn back to Steve, Natasha, Bruce, Wanda, Vision, Rhodey and Sam.

"Well I'm not sure if you like having your own floors but you could also share floors. There are three rooms on each floor. And as I said earlier dinner is at 7 but theres a kitchen on the 50th floor. And at 5 we have a meeting on the conference floor. Vision can you show everyone around?" I ask. He nods and leads everyone to the elevator, disappearing from my view as the doors closed.

I turn to Jim and nod to the elevator telling him to follow me.

"Can you get some snacks ready in the conference room at 5, and also be ready with Alfred for the meeting, you guys are joining." I say pressing the button to my floor.

"Sure, what are you going to do?" He asks as we arrive on my personal floor. I look down at my formal attire, wrinkling my nose.

"First I'm going to change into something more comfortable ten I might as well start with diner." I say walking in and taking my shoes off, as Jim sits on one of my couches.

"Do you know what you're going to make?"

"No clue, any ideas?" I question walking further into my floor towards my room.

"How about your chicken alfredo pasta" he suggests, eyes dancing across my living room.

"If I make that I'm not giving you any." I said, after coming out of my bedroom in sweats and a hoodie.

"What, why?" He whines.

"You know how bloated you get from cheese. I've been there, wish I had never had done that." I shudder.

"Come on-"

"Nope, I'll make lasagna."

"What's lasagna without cheese?" He scoffs.

"Lasagna your not eating." I retort with a sarcastic smile, heading to my kitchen to prep everything.

"But- "

"Butts are for sitting on, which you're not suppose to be doing and I believe I gave you instructions." I say, giving him a look. He sighs and stands up making his way to the elevator while sulking.

"I'm not that mean, I'll make lasagna soup, and cheese can be an optional topping." I say to him before the elevator closed, seeing his eyes light up before we lost from each others sight of view.

"Now where was I?" I ask myself looking at the ingredients i got out on the kitchen counter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time Skip~~~~~~~~~~~

I made my way to the conference floor still I'm my sweats, to lazy to change, I tie my hair up in a messy bun befor walking into the room. I enter to see everyone there, and waiting with Tony stark who I brought here a few hours ago.

"Ah the woman of the hour, how nice to keep is waiting." Stark said. Okay so I might have been 10 minutes late but I dont like a messy kitchen.

"What meeting would this be without the suspense." I reply, turning my head to Jim at the corner of the room, nodding towards the door I just came in, which he locked. I walk to the front of the room standing by the head of the table, between Alfred and Jim, who came to stand next to me.

"Well I thought we'd do some introductions for those who dont know us. This is Jim, my personal assistant, and Alfred, my supervisof. And I am Eliza Queen, founder of this fine establishment if I do say so myself." I say proudly.

"Yeah nice to meet you and all but is being isnt doing us any good, it's just time consuming. We can be doing much more constructive things other than sitting here."

"Well Ms Romanova-" I was cut off.

"That's not my name." She says tightly.

"And that's a lie, but I will play this game of yours. I did not bring you here, you decided to follow, tag along if you will. I just got what I needed. Now I dont take disrespect kindly, no matter who you are." I say staring directly into her eyes, unblinking. "My business if that's what you want to call it is built on a level of trust and respect. This isnt S.H.I.E.L.D, where everything is based on lies and secrecy. And I dont care whi you are but you will not disrespect anyone whether it be me or the workers." I say to everyone.

The tension is broken by a knock on the door. I unlock and open it to see Mary one of my workers.

"Here are the copies you asked for, as well as the original." She says handing me several copies of the folders I asked.

"Thank you so much Mary, I owe you one." I say with a small smile.

"No problem Queen."

I close and lock the door, turning around to hand the files out to everyone keeping the original.

"No let's get down to business." I say.
