¨So? How about we get some tea?¨ Miranda said softly while side hugging the young Latina getting a small smile from the chastised woman
Making their way to the library along with the Priestley's while Andrea followed behind while watching her family interact
¨So? What have I missed?¨ Mary asked them once they sat in the couch with each twin to her sides hugging her while she returned it as much as she could.
They all enjoyed tea time chatting before the girls had to be taken back to school for after class lessons. Once they had left the three adults decided to move to the garden where Miranda could work while spending time with her family
¨So… let me get this right…¨ Mary started ¨You are ¨rejecting¨ to avoid any other events while the piece of shit that did this gets caught¨
¨Must you always swear Mary?¨ Miranda said while rolling her eyes with a small chuckle
¨Do you have a better term for whoever planed it?¨ Mary said raising an eyebrow but chuckled at the hushed ¨No¨
¨Yeah, that´s basically it¨ Andy said already used to her sissy´s vocabulary
¨And yet you´re staying here?¨ the latina kept going
¨Uhh… yeah¨ Andy answered not sure at where this was going and got Miranda´s attention as well
¨So, you´re pretending to reject the crown of a country while you let your family stay at their consulate which can easily be taken as you getting the best of life while you can…¨ this made Andrea and Miranda stare at each other while analyzing it
¨I…uh… hadn´t thought of it like that¨ Andrea finished softly and feeling uncomfortable but didn´t really get a chance to answer since they were interrupted by one of the security personal
¨Excuse me you highness, I apologize for the interruption, but you have a visit¨ Kyle tightly told Andrea shocking her
¨What? Who?¨ Andrea said not understanding a thing.
No one had been scheduled to visit or to speak with her alone since her grandmother had always been in the meetings after the rumor
¨Mr Deveruox is requesting an audience with you¨ Kyle continued.
At Andrea´s shock Miranda asked the man, more confident by now with the interactions and behavior needed ¨Has he given a reason for the unannounced visit?
¨He wishes to talk to the Princess about the matters that happened last Monday¨ Kyle said dutifully. This shocked the women.
¨All right Kyle, thank you, could you make him wait until I let you know. You may tell him I'm having another meeting but do not mention anyone here¨ Andrea said strongly and getting a bit angry at the thought of having to meet the man knowing what had happened.
She trusted Kyle, he was a strong build brunet man but had proven to be professional and showed himself as not friendly. It gave him the advantage since no one would try to get information from him and they knew that he was truly loyal to Clarisse given that she´d allowed him to go to school and prepare himself as one of her attaché corps.
He´d been given the chance to study with no costs for any career he wished and still he wished to stay by his Queen to provide she was safe and had been, as such, put right next to Joe in his work providing security for the crown
¨Wait!¨ Mary said in a hush. She knew the man´s story with the crown by Andy and, even if she´d not talked to the man she knew they could count on him
At the rapid request Kyle stood still with a tight face; even if the Latina had no real influence in him he respected her after the stories he´d been told about the woman´s protective stance towards their Princess which was the basic for him to protect his Royals so his respect outgrew his duty.
At the sight of Kyle waiting for her to continue Mary stood and went to him directly
¨Kyle, I know I have no say here but I ask of you to please stay right next to the door once the meeting starts; I need you to protect Andrea so I´ll make you privy of information you have no need to have since…¨ Mary was talking but got interrupted by Andrea
¨María Luz!¨ Andrea said strongly to stop her sister but was stopped
¨Do not María Luz me! I cannot physically be there to protect you because that piece of shit decided to try and take the twins to make you resign! So I do not fucking care what it takes to get you, Miranda and those girls safe!¨ Mary started saying while her eyes started to turn brownish-green showing how angry she was starting to get before she turned to the man again and continued
¨Kyle, you are to stay at the door and you will go inside the moment you hear anything that does not seems like a normal discussion am I clear?!¨ Mary kept going while turning back to Kyle who stepped back at the strength of the command even if it didn´t came from the Princess herself
He simply had to agree to the woman; he knew the man was bad news and was more than glad to do what he was being told.
Andy got up right into Mary´s personal space shoving her sister away making her flinch from pain but didn´t give a shit at that moment
¨Who the hell do you think you are to out command me?! Do you really think that because I´m helping you out it means you can come here, give orders to everyone and think they would not respect their Royals?!¨ Andrea said outraged at her sister´s attitude
¨What the fuck do you mean about helping me!? I specifically told you that I had a place to go and that I could not afford a private hospital bed!¨ Mary yelled angrily shutting Andrea the second it was said so she continued in Spanish proving how angry she know was
¨En serio crees que pondría en juego mi propia vida solo para tener la tuya!? En serio pensás que cambiaría mi vida por esas hermosas gemelas que vas a poder llamar hijas solo para sacártelas!? En serio pensás tan bajo de mi como para que no me interese tu bienestar después de todo lo que hemos pasado?¨ Mary was in a row and Andrea simply stood still while listening to her sister feeling stupid
¨You truly believe I would put my life at stake just to have your own? You truly think i´d give up my own life so those beautiful twins that you´ll be able to call your own and take them away? You really think that I don´t care about your well-being after everything we´ve been through!?¨
At Andrea´s silence she simply said ¨I wish you the best Andrea; It was a pleasure Miranda¨ and left to gather her things. She was thankful no one had unpacked for her so she simply got her bag from the room she´d been showed to and left the Consulate without turning back
The moment Maria left everything went silent since no one knew what to say or what to do. Andrea sat down with unshed tears before turning to Miranda who was crying softly and refused to take her hand.
¨Kyle, you may let Mr. Deveruox know that the Princess is unable to give him a meeting, that´s all¨ Miranda said lowly and keeping her tears at bay and only got up when Kyle left
It took them a couple of minutes of Miranda standing and Andrea crying softly until Miranda started talking again while she turned to her young lover
¨You know my love, I never thought I'd be in this position…¨ Miranda started and waited until Andrea looked up at her before continuing
¨No one would be able to protect us if you start to believe they want to get your place in the throne. María has done nothing but try to help you be happy and she has constantly proven it¨ Miranda said staring at Andrea while crying but not raising her voice
¨What makes me angry here is that you crazy ass heart sister saved my twins from whoever wanted to hurt you¨ the white haired woman kept saying while crying ¨She made sure you had your family together at her own life´s cost so you could blossom¨
After almost five minutes in silence Miranda simply said
¨Andrea, I love you with all my heart and i´ll support you with everything¨ she started again gaining the brunet´s attention again ¨But you just made a huge mistake¨ she finished before leaving Andrea alone on the gardens with tears on her eyes.
That night Andrea did not speak at all at dinner and didn´t sleep at all since she´d decided to stay at the library while thinking about what´d happened with her sister.
