that."
Without a word, the guards mobilized and did
as Calder asked. I watched with idle curiosity and a dopey smile on
my face. I didn't care what was going on right now. Whatever Calder
had done with his little finger jabs had filled me with glee.
As the guards left and the doors closed,
Calder sagged against the throne and held my hand.
"So what was all that?" I asked with a smile
on my face.
"We are safe for now. I'm sorry for
everything Olivia."
"Sorry for what?" I asked as I swayed back
and forth. I felt so good right now.
"For tricking you."
"That's okay Calder..."
He looked at me and grabbed me by the chin. I
tried to focus on his face as he pulled me close, but Calder kept
splitting into multiple images. I laughed and pressed a finger
against his nose. "Boop!"
Calder sighed and pulled away. "You're drunk
on magic. Do you even know what just happened?"
I shook my head from side to side. Pleased
with the head rush the sudden movement caused, I did it again and
giggled.
"It was the only way I could keep us safe.
When you killed the King, you became Queen. I need you to
understand that. We are married now."
I closed my eyes and nodded. "That's fine.
Fine fine fine. Are you hungry?"
"Olivia! Listen to me. We are married. It was
the only way to keep us safe. Do you understand?"
My happy mood was wearing off. Something was
gnawing at my thoughts. A name flitted in and out of my head as I
stared at the handsome vampire in front of me. I ran my hands
through his hair and gawked at the lightshow that followed.
Who is Sam?
My head started to pound. Calder was still
talking but only a few of his words made any sense.
I love Sam.
"Olivia! I need you to listen! We are
married. Please say something!"
My eyes focused and I stared at Calder,
comprehending his words for the first time since I'd spoken that
strange promise earlier.
We are married.
I looked at my finger tips and studied the
small holes in each of them before I looked back at Calder. "What
did you say?"
He smiled slowly and held my hand as he
spoke. "It was the only way to keep us safe. I'm sorry Olivia, but
we are married now. You are a Queen."
Ohh no.
