All Mye Queen's Men, Chronicles of Love - Volume II, page 41
Queen didn't answer.
“Okay you know what... Don't even fuckin bother to answer that. Now all of this shit makes perfect sense. Just get the fuck out of my house before I kill your trick ass.”
“Christian...”
“What? What could you possibly say to me right now? Huh Queen? What?”
“Nothing except I love you Christian and I'm sorry.”
“Oh I know that you're sorry. You're also trifling and selfish. And you don't give a fuck about anybody, but your fuckin self. Especially not me.”
“Chris I love you. You're my best friend. You mean everything to me. I didn't mean to hurt you. I fucked up. Please forgive me.”
“So, I'm your best friend? Yet you never once told me about Logic, not once. No wonder Teddy was so fucked in the head. Fucking with you and your fuckin bullshit.”
“Christian... that's not fair. I never meant to fuckin hurt you, or anyone else for that matter. I didn't think. Let's just start over.”
Christian didn't respond.
“Christian I can't say more than I'm sorry. I told you that I had baggage that needed to be unpacked.”
“Oh yeah, well now you have bags to pack. Don't you?”
“Okay. That hurt, but I guess I deserved it. I'll get my things and go.” Queen managed as she choked back tears.
Christian softened. He hated to see Queen cry. He watched with mixed feelings as she dressed and gathered some of her things. “Do you love him?”
Queen wiped tears from her eyes and admitted. “I've loved him almost all my life, but I'm in love with you. I know that now.”
“But you didn't know that when you were fucking a round with him? If you were so much in love with me then why did you fuck him? Huh Queen?”
“His dad died. I told you that he was my uncle because I didn't know what else to say. I was close to Mr. Hart and I took it hard. Logic and I were both so distraught that... Look, I don't have an excuse. Other than that I'm fucked up. Sex is just a means for me to escape pain. The last thing on earth I wanted to do was to hurt you.”
“You know what your real problem is? You're afraid to be happy. Every time you think that you have a slim chance of being happy, you do something to fuck it up. You say that you've been with Logic since you were fifteen, so you probably fucked it up by fucking around with Paul and Teddy. Now I know for a fact that Teddy's asked you to marry him a half dozen times, but you were too busy fucking Logic. In fact, you knew that Teddy was going to ask you to marry him again, but you fucked it up by fucking around with me. You use sex as a way to escape happiness, not pain. That's why you fucked this up with me.”
“Chris please, I'm sorry.”
“Yeah I know we've already established that.” He sarcastically responded as he slipped on a shirt and some shoes. “I need a drink. So I'm going to leave while you get your shit together. We'll talk about the baby later. I can't do it right now. Let yourself out and leave my keys on the table.”
~*~*~
Now Queen noticed that Christian didn't take his car keys so she knew exactly where he was heading. There was a bar less than a block from their condo where they would often go to shoot pool and have a beer or two. Christian would be there and Queen decided that she had one last shot to capture his heart.
Queen quickly fixed her hair, put on some makeup and slid on her way too tight form fitting jeans and went to the bar to get her man. She entered the bar and immediately begin to scan the room for Christian. Instantly starting a shark feeding frenzy Queen made her way through the sea of horny ass men to Christian.
Christian who was smoking cigarettes and lining up shots, spotted her coming and simply ignored her and the monkeys who were trying to get her attention. Naturally he was not alone. There was a women on either side of him just hoping that he'd get drunk enough to follow them home. Queen instantly recognized it for what it was and decided that somebody probably was going to get their ass kicked tonight. Not really wanting to intentionally start no shit she excused herself.
“Excuse me ladies, can I just have a word with my fiancé for a second?”
Christian looked at her and rolled his eyes.
“I thought you said you were single?” One of the women asked.
“I know he said he was single. So, I don't know who this bitch is!” The other chimed in.
Christian said nothing. He continued smoking his cigarette as if it was the last one on the planet.
Queen chose to ignore the bitch comment. “Christian what are you doing down here? You don't even smoke. Come back to the condo so we can talk.”
“I've said all I have to say. We don't have anything left to talk about. Well, at least not for nine months. Let's just talk then.”
“Then we need to talk about that. Let’s go somewhere and talk.” Queen insisted.
“Miss, didn't you hear him. He said y'all don't have shit to talk about! So you need to go somewhere else with your bullshit.”
“That's what I'm saying. He's talking to us and here you come interrupting our conversation and shit.” The other one added.
By now Queen had fuckin had it with these two, drunk, classless bitches. “Didn't I say that he was my fiancé? What, you don't know what the word means?”
“I don't give a fuck what it means! I just know you need to find you some business somewhere else, because tonight this one is with me.”
“Don't make me break my heel off in your fuckin ass tonight, cause I'm just the bitch that can do it.” Queen snarled. “I will fuck the both of you up before the ash falls from his damn cigarette. So say one more fuckin thing to me and see what's up.”
“Queen come on lets go. Why would you come down here starting shit? You're pregnant why are you trying to fight?” A tipsy Christian asked as he pulled money out of wallet to pay his tab and the tab of his lady friends. “Thanks for the cigarettes ladies. I got to go deal with this.”
“Baby you don't have to go. Fuck her! She can punch me in my face repeatedly for you. As fine as you are, I don't give a fuck!”
“Thanks, but this is my baby mama. I have to go. I promise I'll catch up with you two tomorrow.” Christian said as he took Queen by the hand and lead her home. “Come on and let's go home.”
They walked the short half of a block home in silence. Queen knew that alcohol had mellowed Christian out considerably, but she could tell that he was still pissed.
~*~*~
As soon as they walked in the door Queen made her move. She wrapped her arms around the unsuspecting Christian's neck and kissed him hard in the mouth. Influenced by the alcohol and easily aroused Christian gave in to her advances.
Sensing that he had let his guard down Queen quickly dropped to her knees and let his pants down. Moments later she was making that slurping sound that was like music to Christian's ears. Christian's eyes closed and rolled back in his head as Queen reminded him of just one of the many perks of being her King. It was undeniable that he loved her warm mouth. Mad or not he wasn't turning down a good old fashioned knob slob.
Queen continued to work overtime to pleasure her man to completion. Determined to show him some love, she sucked, stroked, licked and then sucked some more. And Christian did absolutely not a damn thing to either stop or encourage her. Within minutes he announced his arrival into Pleasureville. “I'm coming.” he moaned.
Queen instantly took it as a personal challenge to work harder, and see the job through to the bitter end. Appreciating the effort, Christian came hard filling her mouth with his hot stickiness. Queen smiled before she ran to the guest bathroom to spit. When she came out she discovered that Christian had gone into their bedroom and locked the door.
“Chris unlock the door. You locked me out.” She said as she gently knocked.
Christian opened the door and looked at Queen as if she was five day old rotting garbage. “It's late so you can sleep in the guest room tonight. But I want you out of here first thing tomorrow. Do you understand?”
“Yeah, I understand.” The stunned Queen conceded.
“Good. Oh yeah and thanks for shitting on the best news I ever received. You single handedly turned what should have been the best day of my life into the worst day of my life. Thanks a lot Mye Queen.” Christian simply said as he slammed and locked the bedroom door.
Queen knew that it was pointless to beg. Christian was strong willed and nothing she said would change how he felt. It sadly was over and for the first time in an extremely long time Mye Queen was without a man. She left that night and checked into the Honeymoon suite of the Harbor Lights Hotel, where she cried herself to sleep.
CHAPTER 54
Clearly Christian was the father of Queen's baby a big surprise to even Queen. Apparently they conceived a few weeks after he came home. The problem was that Queen's Baby Daddy wasn't speaking to her and had asked her to leave their home. Normally this wouldn't be a problem but as fate would have it Queen had nowhere to go. Queen's Baltimore mansion had just been sold and Dorian's mouth was too big for her to stay at Jade's. Not ready to disclose the details of their troubled relationship to her parents, Queen chose to keep her breakup and pregnancy a secret, so she couldn't go home. There would be plenty of time to tell everyone everything later. Right now, Queen needed somewhere to stay. She had been at the hotel for almost a week now.
Well, Queen may not have had a man, but thanks to Teddy she still had a Plum American Express card, a ton of cash and two beautiful homes. Queen's Palace in LA and a gorgeous vacation home in Cancun, Mexico were both just a plane ride away. Pregnant, hurt, alone and ashamed she couldn't even bear the thought of facing Teddy. Therefore Queen's Palace was out of the question. So she brushed off her passport, took an indefinite leave of absence from her staff position at the hospital and boarded a first class flight to Cancun.
Absolutely no expense was spared to prepare the beautiful beach front mansion for Queen's arrival. With not much more than a phone call to the management group that maintained the property for Teddy the house was staffed and ready for occupancy within twenty four hours. To Queen's surprise a super stretch limo even met her at the airport, even though she requested a simple Lincoln Town car. Recognizing that this was clearly Teddy's mode of operation, she half expected to find him in the limo, waiting for her with open arms and a hard dick, but he wasn't there.
With mixed feelings Queen pondered the thought of raising her baby alone as the limo drove along the coastal highway towards her new home. It had been over a year or more since she had had a real vacation and she was long over do. Her hope was that the peace of the ocean would help to somehow center her so she could find her way out of the carnage that had become her life. She owed it to her unborn child to bury her demons in the Cancun and return to the states as the best Queen that she possibly could be. A Queen who was strong enough to transcend the lost of the love of not just one but three unfathomable men. Men who she loved with an undying love, a relentless heart and with insatiable passion.
The prospect of losing Christian haunted and disturbed Queen. But in her heart's heart she knew that no matter what ill feelings Christian harbored against her he would always play a significant role in the life of his child. And one day she would gather the strength and courage to tell her child why he no longer played a part in hers.
As the limo pulled around the semicircle driveway in front of her mansion Queen looked upon it with fresh eyes. She had forgotten exactly how spectacular it was. With both of them living such busy lives, Teddy and Queen rarely had an opportunity to take the trip to Cancun, so the house remained deserted for the bulk of the year. But that would soon change as Queen decided that it would make a perfect place to hideout and recuperate from her past, while her future grew to maturation inside her womb.
Queen immediately smiled as Sanchez, the estate's caretaker rushed to meet her at the limo. She remembered him from the last time that they visited. He was a good man and she could trust him to keep an eye out for her while she was there. No one knew she was there except Jade, and Queen had sworn her to secrecy under the penalty of death. Jade promised to tell no one, especially not her big mouth husband and you know why.
“Hello Dr. Queen, let me help you in. Did you have a good flight?” Sanchez asked as he helped the limo driver with Queen's abundant designer luggage.
“Thank you Sanchez. Yes I had a good flight. How are your wife and children?”
“They are great Dr. Queen. My wife prepared some food for your dinner. She told me to tell you that she will be over in the morning to fix your breakfast.”
“No, I'm fine. Sanchez tell her she doesn't have to do that. I'll get something from the fridge to eat if I get hungry.” Queen insisted. “The refrigerator is stocked, isn't it?”
“Yes, yes of course. There's plenty of food. It's no problem for wife to cook for you. Please Dr. Queen, we need the extra money. You see, we are having another child. Mr. Teddy Bear is paying us extra well to take care of you while you are here. My wife loves to cook and she would love to cook for you.”
“Sure, in that case I'd love for Angelina to prepare my meals. Thank you.” She said as she followed him into the breathtaking mansion.
It never once dawned on Queen what Sanchez actually said. She was weary and simply wanted to relax. Now, as absolutely fine as everything in that mansion was nothing was as fine as the first thing she saw when she entered the grand foyer. There he was as tall, tantalizing and tasty as a homemade double chocolate milkshake, Teddy Bear Davine waiting with open arms.
“Oh Bear, how did you know I was here? She managed as she ran to him and threw herself in his arms weeping.
Teddy caught her mid flight and held her tight as if he'd never get a chance to hold her again. “Mye Queen it is so good to see you face to face after all of this time. God I've missed.” He admitted as he kissed her forehead and squeezed her even tighter.
The two once upon a time lovers found total comfort in each other’s embrace for what seemed like an eternity. Queen was so overwhelmed she couldn't stop sobbing.
Teddy held her close and assured her that everything would be alright. “Don't cry Mye Queen. This is not the end of the world. We'll work it out. I promise.”
The inconsolable Queen continued to softly sob, but somehow found peace in those simple words and her best friend’s arms.
~*~*~
Later over dinner they finally chose to address the big pink elephant in the room that was sitting at the table with them as they enjoyed dinner on the patio deck overlooking the ocean.
“So what are you doing here?” They both asked simultaneously. They laughed as they argued over who said it first.
“I asked first.” Teddy declared.
“No you didn't but you can answer first.” Queen laughed.
“Okay, I'll go first, but only because you laughed. I wasn't sure if I'd see that while I was here.” Teddy smiled. “I came to see what was up with you. Everybody's calling me looking for you and shit.”
“Everybody like who?”
“You know who I'm talking about, Queen. What's going on with you two? He's pretty worried about you. He said that he hadn't heard from you or seen you for almost a week. He told me that you'd even taken a leave of absence from your job. What happened?”
“What did he say happened?”
“He didn't, but I could tell that some fucked up shit went down. What did you do?”
“First of all how did you know that I was here? And second, why do you have to assume that I did something?”
“So, you want to play that game? Really? You forget that I know you better than you even know yourself.” Teddy laughed. “Actually I have an idea of what went down, but I need to hear it from you.”
“Bear again, how did you find me? Did Jade tell you were I was? Because if she did I'm whipping her little midget ass.”
“The correct term is Little People and no she wouldn't tell me shit. Actually, she really didn't have to. Somehow you keep forgetting that all of this shit is tied to me. They called me the moment you made the request to open up the house. I thought you and Chris were taking a vacation, until he called me.”
“What did they call you for? I told them all that they needed to know.”
“Probably to see how I was going to pay for all that shit you ordered.” Teddy laughed.
“What? You act like your ass is broke or some shit.” Queen joked.
“You act like your ass is broke.” Teddy laughed. “If memory serves me right you have a very healthy financial portfolio of your own. You act like I'm still your man. Running up a tab on my ass and shit. Aren't you engaged?”
“I'm going to handle the bill. They never asked me for payment.”
“Yeah, well you should have known they were going to call me to verify all those charges on that Plum card if nothing else.”
Queen remained silent.
“So what's up, Mye Queen? What's going on with you and Chris?”
“I'll pay you back.”
“What? Queen, did I ask you to pay me back? I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this bullshit between you and Chris. I don't give a shit about that money. You know that. Just tell me what's up.”
Queen hesitated before admitting. “I slept with Logic while Christian was in LA.”
“Ah shit! Come on Queen. Please tell me you didn't.”
“Let me finish. It gets a whole lot better. Then I found out that I was pregnant and...”
“You're pregnant? Oh hell no Queen! What the FUCK?”
“Calm down... The baby is Christian's.”
“Thank God! Then what's the problem.”
“I confessed everything to Christian.”
“What the hell did you do that stupid ass shit for?”
“I had to Bear. The guilt was killing me and I didn't want to build our marriage on a lie. He deserves more than that. So here I am and here we are.”
“Chris is tore the fuck up about this bullshit, Queen. So what, are you back to fuckin with Logic now or what?”
“No, that ended when Christian came home. Logic wanted me to call off my engagement and move to Vegas with him, but I couldn't do it. So, he left. I went back to Christian and apparently I got pregnant shortly after he came home from LA. So the Logic Hart ship has sailed and left the hemisphere.”
