Title: Fit To Be Queen
Chapter 1
King Leonardo Wyatt II of Versailles sat in his throne room staring out of his majestic window facing the kingdom's pond. Anyone who didn't know King Leo would say he was admiring the pond's beauty during the summertime, but in truth he was watching his young Queen chase after a frog. It was absolutely ridiculous to him but quite amusing. If she wanted to play with a slimy frog, all she had to do was ask. Instead, she chose to get all muddy trying to catch one.
He was only 14-years-old when his father died of natural causes and forced his only son to ascend the throne. It was that very same year that King Leo married a very naughty princess. Her name was Princess Piper.
There was gossip around the kingdom that King Leonardo Wyatt I knew he would die soon. So, before his dying days, he spent time trying to find a suitable princess for his son. As his last wish, he ordered that Leo would make Princess Piper his Queen. Leo never knew why his father would want him to make such a naughty little Princess as his Queen. To this very day, he still hasn't figured it out.
She was only 10-years-old at the time they were married and still very mischievous. On their wedding night, she snuck a frog under his pillow and Leo had a fit while she laughed uncontrollably in her chamber. What did his father see in such a naughty, giggly, little girl?
Now, at the age of 17 she is exactly the same way she was seven years ago. Only she has breasts now. King Leo watched as she ran around the pond trying to catch the frog, and landed in the mud before she got a grip on him. What is a King to do with a Queen like her? A Queen who has her own opinion, and no matter what troubles her mouth got her into. She still spoke her mind and refused to obey anyone.
Piper petted the slimy frog in her hand gently as he croaked.
Leo rested his head on the window, and looked at how carefree she was as she frolic around the pond. Her dress covered in mud and leaves. Somehow she still managed to look beautiful through it all. He wondered if she knew how he would watch her from afar and feel so content doing so.
Leo made his way down to the Kingdom's pond to join her majesty.
"Why can't I kiss you, and make you become my handsome King who won't force me to obey his every command?" Piper asked out loud.
"What are you mumbling about now?" Leo asked standing behind her.
"What does it matter to you? Besides, what are you doing here? A king like you would cease to know the true beauty of nature," Piper snapped at him as she turned to face him.
Leo laughed when he saw Piper's appearance. She looked worse than a pheasant woman on the streets of Versailles did. Definitely not fit to be a Queen of any sort.
"What's so funny?" Piper asked putting the frog down on the rock nearby.
"You look ridiculous! Covered in mud, your hair in disarray, and that dress is fit for a pheasant woman. Do you not know your status, My Queen?" Leo asked mockingly.
"Do not call me that," Piper demanded.
"What else am I supposed to call you, My Queen?" Leo taunted.
"I will never be yours," Piper said.
"Oh, is that a challenge because I love challenges," Leo said pulling her waist close to his hip.
Piper pushed him away quickly and tried to walk away.
"Come with me," Leo said pulling on her hand.
"I don't want to. Let me go!" Piper exclaimed struggling to free herself from his death grip.
"It's let me go, My King," Leo corrected.
"I loathe you, your Royal Highness!" Piper said.
"That's more like it. Now, why can't you be more like King Rupert's wife?" Leo asked dragging her to the bath chamber with full force.
"Because I have a brain of my own unlike her Royal Highness," Piper retorted.
"You are a spark of fire, aren't you? Let's see if I could put it out," Leo said closing the door behind him as they entered the bath chamber.
The sunlight from the ceiling bounced off the precious gems on the bath chamber walls and made the floors sparkle with different colors.
Leo's hand went to pull the string on the back of her dress, but Piper slapped his hand away.
"There's nothing to be shy about. I'm your husband, my Queen. After everything I have given you, don't you think it's time you give back?" Leo asked pushing her up on the wall.
"You have given me nothing I desired at all, and I sure as hell don't desire you!" Piper said.
"Oh, is that so? Would you care to tell me why your heart beats faster as my hand travels across your body?" Leo asked teasing her.
Why? Because it's simply fun.
"It is not," Piper denied.
Leo tugged the string of her dress loose and he smiled, as she grew weak under his arms. It gets her every time, but she's still the little innocent girl he married at 10-years-old.
"I can give you so much pleasure if you would just let me, my love. But--Like you said, you don't desire me. I can't force you to do something you don't want to do. Now, why don't you be a good little girl and get that mud out of your hair so I can enjoy those pretty brown curls?" Leo asked leaving the bath chamber.
Piper stood there breathless as her Lady's maids came into the bath chamber to help her bathe.
After her bath, Piper decided to read a book out by the garden. Leo passed by the courtyard before he started off on his daily ride in the town, and saw Piper reading a book in the garden. Her shiny brown curls were once again overflowing beneath her shoulders. She had on a light blue gown fit for a Queen and she certainly looked like one. A gorgeous one in fact.
"You do clean up nicely," Leo complimented.
Piper glanced at him for a short second and went back to reading Romeo and Juliet.
"Don't you think that play is a bit overrated?" Leo asked.
"I think it's romantic," Piper answered.
"Is that so? They both end up dead," Leo said.
"True, but they loved each other so much that they would do anything for each other. It's better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all," Piper said.
"Question is are you willing to die for the one you love? Because I am," Leo said as he kissed her hand.
Piper watched him climbed onto his white horse on the courtyard and rode outside of the castle walls. Sometimes, she doesn't know what to make of Leo. He's makes a wonderful ruler, but not much of a husband. She secretly longed for him to romance her, and tell her that he loves her.
