All Mye Queen's Men, Chronicles of Love - Volume I (104 page)

“
You
know
sooner
or
later
you
’
re
going
to
have
to
choose
between
the
two
of
us.
”

Queen
stopped,
took
a
hard
look
at
him
and
then
kept
walking.
She
reserved
comment
because
she
knew
Teddy
really
did
not
want
to
hear
what
she
was
thinking.

“
So,
you
’
re
just
going
to
ignore
me
and
not
respond?
Do
you
really
think
that
is
going
to
solve
the
problem?
”

“
Bear
for
once,
just
let
me
wallow
in
my
guilt
and
self
loathing
in
peace.
This
is
hard
for
me,
believe
it
or
not.
Please
don
’
t
make
it
worse.
”

“
You
’
re
right...
that
wasn
’
t
called
for.
I
’
m
sorry.
”
He
said
as
he
attempted
to
pull
her
close,
but
she
pulled
away.
“
Are
you
going
to
be
okay?
”

Queen
kept
walking
and
did
not
answer.

“
You
know
that
you
’
re
going
to
have
to
pull
double
duty
with
that
cute
booty?
”
He
laughed.
“
Are
you
going
to
be
able
to
handle
it?
”

Queen
didn
’
t
even
bother
to
dignify
that
bullshit
with
a
verbal
response.
She
simply
flashed
him
the
finger
as
she
went
into
her
room.

She
entered
the
room
to
find
Logic
half
dressed,
asleep
on
the
bed.
Queen
removed
the
remainder
of
his
clothes
and
covered
him
up.
Logic
reeked
of
Sam
’
s
stinky
ass
perfume
and
it
pissed
Queen
off,
but
she
had
nobody
to
blame
but
herself.
She
should
have
never
left
him
down
there
with
that
saddle
tramp.
She
watched
him
sleep
for
awhile
before
she
climbed
in
bed
with
him,
wrapped
his
strong
arms
around
her
and
softly
wept.
She
knew
he
deserved
better.
She
just
wasn
’
t
sure
if
she
could
do
better.

By
some
unforeseen
miracle
of
God,
Queen
managed
to
graduate
with
high
honors.
To
her
surprise
and
relief
her
professors
were
more
than
sympathetic
to
her
dilemma.
After
graduation,
she
packed
her
bags
and
moved
to
Las
Vegas
with
Logic
as
he
prepared
for
pre
season
training.
There
she
settled
into
the
celebrity
life
as
the
significant
other
of
an
NFL
Rookie,
which
meant
a
lot
of
time
home
alone,
bored
out
of
her
damn
mind.

Nonetheless,
with
Teddy
over
two
hundred
miles
away,
she
remained
faithful
to
Logic
and
spent
the
rest
of
the
spring
and
summer
being
the
best
fiancé
on
the
entire
planet.
She
hoped
that
this
would
somehow
makeup
for
the
outrageously,
scandalous
shit
she
was
soon
about
to
get
into.

Medical
school
was
starting
soon
and
Queen
had
to
fly
to
Los
Angeles
to
get
settled.
Logic,
who
was
in
the
middle
of
training
could
not
go,
but
he
sent
his
checkbook.
Without
reservation
he
purchased
Queen
a
three
bedroom
townhouse
and
paid
her
tuition
for
the
first
year.
Yes,
it
was
extremely
good
to
be
the
Queen
of
a
Nevada
King.
 

To
her
pleasant
surprise
Dorian
was
accepted
into
the
UCLA
Law
School,
so
Jade
decided
to
pursue
her
MBA
at
UCLA.
The
only
one
who
wouldn
’
t
be
in
Los
Angeles
with
her
was
Logic.
Still
it
was
comforting
to
know
that
Teddy
wasn
’
t
going
to
be
her
only
friend
in
Los
Angeles.

When
she
arrived
at
LAX,
Los
Angeles
International
Airport,
a
limo
driver
with
a
large
sign
that
read,
“
Welcome
home
Mye
Beloved
Queen
”
awaited
her
at
the
baggage
terminal.
Expecting
Jade
and
Dorian
Queen
dismissed
it
as
a
fluke
until
she
heard
her
name
paged
overhead.

“
Mye
Queen,
please
meet
your
driver
at
the
baggage
Terminal.
Mye
Queen,
please
meet
your
driver
at
the
baggage
terminal.
”

It
all
became
crystal
clear
at
that
point.
Queen
had
tried
to
put
off
the
inevitable
by
begging
Jade
and
Dorian
not
to
tell
Teddy
when
she
was
arriving.
In
retrospect
she
should
have
just
bribed
them
instead,
because
apparently
begging
did
not
work.

Queen
greeted
the
limo
driver
who
escorted
her
to
a
black,
chromed
out,
super
stretch
Cadillac
Escalade
Limo
parked
in
front
of
the
airport.

“
Bear
is
such
a
damn
showoff.
I
’
m
only
one
person.
”
She
thought
to
herself
as
the
driver
opened
the
door
of
the
enormous
limo
to
let
her
in.

Her
heart
stopped
and
her
breath
ceased
when
she
spotted
Teddy
waiting
in
the
limo
with
a
gigantic
bouquet
of
over
two
dozen
long
stem
white
roses.
Queen
’
s
legs
went
to
jelly
the
moment
he
smiled
at
her.
Looking
like
a
triple
scoop
of
German
chocolate
ice
cream
with
caramel
syrup
Queen
could
tell
that
Los
Angeles
well
suited
Teddy.
Overwhelmed
by
his
presence
she
froze
in
place
like
a
solid
block
of
ice.
Momentarily
speechless,
she
could
only
mumble,
“
Bear.
”

“
Welcome
to
Los
Angeles
Mye
Queen.
”
He
grinned
as
he
helped
her
into
the
back
of
the
limo.
 

Queen
took
his
hand
and
the
heat
from
his
body
that
radiated
from
it
went
through
her
like
a
raging
all
consuming
bush,
I
mean
brush
fire.
She
stared
at
him
with
her
large
doe
eyes
wanting
to
run
back
to
Logic
in
Vegas
to
save
herself.
But
mesmerized
and
trapped
like
a
helpless
bug
in
his
web
she
was
powerless
to
move.
 
She
said
nothing.
She
simply
threw
everything
down
and
leaped
into
his
arms
praying
that
he
still
wanted
her
as
much
as
she
wanted
him.

It
didn
’
t
take
long
for
her
to
get
the
answer
to
her
unspoken
question.

“
God
I
missed
you.
”
He
said
as
he
sucked
her
tongue
deep
into
his
mouth.

Queen
did
not
respond,
at
least
not
in
words.
She
kissed
him
back
with
all
the
intensity
of
a
raging
inferno.
The
limo
driver
smiled
as
he
closed
the
door
on
the
two
lovers
who
could
hardly
contain
themselves.
Before
he
could
put
the
truck
in
gear
and
pull
away
from
the
airport
terminal
they
were
half
naked.
