All Mye Queen's Men, Chronicles of Love - Volume II (21 page)

Hurt
he
didn
’
t
respond
to
her
affection.
He
couldn
’
t
even
stand
to
look
at
her,
so
he
turned
away.
Queen
knew
that
his
emotions
were
swelling
up
inside
and
she
couldn
’
t
bear
to
see
him
cry.
So
she
said
her
goodbyes.

“
I
got
go.
I
’
ll
call
you
later.
”

Logic
did
not
respond.
He
could
not
respond.
Words
could
not
express
the
pain
that
he
felt
as
she
walked
away
without
a
whisper.
He
continued
to
stare
out
over
the
vast
estate
that
Queen
’
s
Palace
rested
on
and
pondered
when
he
’
d
hold
his
Queen
in
his
embrace
again.
He
knew
she
wouldn
’
t
call,
but
he
also
knew
that
she
couldn
’
t
stop
loving
him.
He
was
embedded
in
her
DNA
and
she
was
in
his.
They
were
created
for
each
other
and
somehow
that
affirmation
was
enough
to
comfort
him
until
his
Queen
inevitably
returned.

~*~*~

Queen
felt
like
the
air
had
just
been
sucked
out
of
her
lungs
as
she
walked
away
from
Logic.
Her
legs
trembled
and
she
was
convinced
that
she
was
going
to
faint.
“
What
the
fuck
did
I
just
do?
I
walked
away
from
not
one
but
two
of
the
finest,
black
men
on
the
planet.
What
the
fuck
is
wrong
with
me?
”
Her
mind
screamed.

X
who
had
been
trying
desperately
to
stay
out
of
it,
grabbed
her
purse
and
quickly
headed
towards
her.
Sensing
that
she
was
looking
for
a
quick
exit
he
wanted
to
make
sure
that
she
didn
’
t
leave
without
him
and
Jade
was
right
on
his
heels.

“
Where
are
you
parked?
”
She
asked
as
he
drew
near.

“
I
’
m
around
the
back
along
the
side.
”
He
responded
as
he
gently
wiped
the
steady
trail
of
tears
that
trickled
down
her
face.
“
Don
’
t
cry.
It
’
s
going
to
be
okay.
What
do
you
want
me
to
do?
”

“
Just
get
me
out
of
here.
”

“
I
’
m
going
too!
”
Jade
added
defiantly.

“
Jade,
I
appreciate
what
you
’
re
trying
to
do,
but
…”

“
Good
then
you
know
that
I
’
m
coming
with
you!
”

“
Jade,
I
’
ll
be
okay.
X
is
a
complete
gentleman
and
nothing
’
s
going
to
happen
to
me
that
I
don
’
t
want
to
happen.
”

“
Queen,
that
’
s
what
I
’
m
worried
about!
”

“
Jade
you
can
’
t
come
with
me,
because
I
’
m
going
to
be
ghost
for
a
minute.
I
promise
I
’
ll
be
in
touch.
But
right
now
I
have
to
get
the
fuck
out
of
here!
”

“
I
understand
that,
but
understand
this,
I
’
m
coming
with
you!
I
don
’
t
want
to
hear
none
of
this
yah
–
dah
yah-
dah
bullshit
that
you
are
spouting.
You
are
not
leaving
here
without
me.
”

X
saw
the
anguish
on
Queen
’
s
face
and
knew
that
she
was
seconds
from
exploding
into
a
weeping
and
wailing
hot
ass
mess.
“
Let
’
s
just
go.
I
don
’
t
mind
if
Jade
comes.
She
’
ll
be
good
company
for
you.
”
He
reasoned.
  

Jade
gave
Queen
a
“
Now
what!
”
smirk.

“
Okay!
Just
get
me
out
of
here
before
I
spin
around,
pass
out
and
die.
I
fuckin
can
’
t
breathe!
”

X
immediately
took
charge.
He
grabbed
Queen
by
the
hand
and
headed
for
the
nearest
exit.
Jade
followed
closely
behind
as
they
navigated
through
the
crowd
of
people
dancing,
mixing
and
mingling.
Moments
later
they
were
out
of
the
mansion
and
Queen
immediately
begin
hyper
ventilating
from
an
acute
panic
attack.

As
they
set
her
down
on
the
curb
Jade
persuaded
X
to
go
get
the
car
and
leave
the
panic
stricken
Queen
with
her.

“
X
just
go
and
get
the
car.
I
got
her.
”

“
Jade
I
’
m
a
doctor
I
should
stay
with
her
and
you
get
the
car.
”
