All Chapters of A Queen Returns : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I don’t know how long I was asleep because when I woke up the tub was cold, and my skin was pruning. I stood up reaching over grabbing the towel from the rack and making sure I wrapped it around my body. But when I got to the bedroom the pain in my stomach started again but then it started spreading outwards. “DIMITRI HELP PLEASE” that was the only thing I could get out of my mouth before Dimitri came running in the room with his sister and mother. They looked at each other then Dimitri said something, but I couldn’t make out what he was saying the pain was starting to become too much. His sister ran back into the room with a syringe and that is when I felt a pinch in my neck, I looked up at Dimitri and he just smiled at me, “Just give it a minute Vic I promise the pain will be gone.” I just laid there with my head in Dimitri’s lap waiting for the pain to dissipate. Once the pain subsided, I realized I was still in my towel, I could feel the redness starting to creep onto my cheeks.

We laid down there for awhile watching movies just spending time together at some point we ended up falling asleep. I don’t know how long we were asleep for, but Dimitri ended up waking us up and when I looked out the window it must have been early because it was sunny out. “What time is it?” He looked at me like I was crazy, “You guys have been asleep all night!” I looked over at Cleopatra and she just shrugged her shoulders at me, “Well, we better get up and get ready mama found some stuff about your mother she messaged me last night about it.” I looked at Dimitri, “Really, please tell me this isn’t a joke?” He just started laughing, “Vic, go get ready and meet us in mom’s office!” I never jumped up so fast in my life, I ran out of the theater and straight up to my room I just grabbed a t-shirt and some jeans with some shoes. I didn’t need to take a shower because I took one yesterday. As soon as I was done getting dressed, I ran back down the stairs an

Once we all got into our hotel rooms, I immediately threw my stuff on the bed, I looked over at DImitri and Aphrodite and they were talking among themselves. I cleared my throat so that they would look at me and I would not seem like I was being rude at all. They both turned towards me, “Can we go start looking for her now?” Aphrodite just started laughing at me before shaking her head, “Ya give me a second to use the restroom ok!” I started jumping up and down I couldn’t believe that I would hopefully meet my real mother today. I sat back down on the bed waiting on Aphrodite and then the nerves started to kick in and before I knew it Dimitri was sitting next to me with his hand on my back. “Are the nerves starting to sink in yet?” I just nodded my head, he rubbed small circles on my back, “It’ll be ok just don’t get your hopes up ok, it's better to be under prepared then over prepared.” Again I just nodded my head, but before I could say anything else Aphrodite came out of the

I laid listening to Dimitri’s heart, while he gently stroked my hair, “Vic, we need to get you up off the floor, did you want to take a shower and then we can get something to eat, and we all can talk?” I just nodded my head he got up helping me to my feet before turning the shower on for me, “I will have Aphrodite bring your clothes in, I will run and get us some food that way it is waiting on you when you get out ok.” He went to turn around and leave, “Dimitri, my stomach is starting to hurt again, the medicine doesn’t seem to be helping anymore.” I could see the fear in his eyes, but he soon relaxed, “Take a shower and we will be waiting in the room for you ok.” I just nodded my head; he left me in the bathroom, and I stripped out of my clothes. I felt the water to make sure that it was at the right temperature before getting in, once I got in the shower, I soaked in the water a little bit before washing up. I heard a knock at the bathroom door before I heard it crack open, “Victo

I finally found a pair of pants and t-shirt, they fit me beautifully, I grabbed them and went into the bathroom so that I could get a shower before I had dinner with my mother. Even though this was going to be very unnerving, I never knew I had any other mother then the one that raised me. But not I have a biological mother that I never knew about till after I graduated, I don’t know what she is talking about and maybe she is not all their mentally but one thing that I do know is that she is my blood and the only family I have left other than my aunt. I turned the shower on and hurried up and showered myself that way I could get back downstairs in time to eat dinner and find out more about what my mother was talking about. Dimitri We were on the plane for what seemed like hours before the pilot came over the intercom to let us know we were descending. We all just sat there in eerie silence waiting for the plane to touch down on the tarmac. Once we landed the pilot came out, “Sir, th
