Chapter 20

Eleanor's Point of View

"Princess Eleanor your mother was very lucky that her staff have such good reactions. We were able to save her and she just woke up before you arrived. She has been asking for you. So if you just follow me I can take you to her." The doctor smiled.

I let out a sigh of relief as I let go of Jasper's hand and followed the doctor to my mum's room. As I walked inside I saw her sitting on her bed. She didn't look like the Queen of England in that moment she just looked like my mum.

When she realised it was me she flung her arms open for me. I didn't even hesitate like I once would have. Instead I raced into them and almost crushed her to death as I climbed onto the bed.


"Thank god your ok." I mumbled into her shoulder.

"Thank god your ok. They told me you went after Rachel. Eleanor what the hell where you thinking she was trying to kill you." Mum scolded despite being the one Rachel hurt more.

"I was thinking…all I knew was that bitch hurt you and I couldn't let her get away." I admitted.

Mum pulled me closer to her as she gently started to rub my head.

"Well as nice as that is to hear I don't want you risking your safety for me ever again. Do you hear me?" Mum questioned.

Just at that my phone began to ring. I pulled it out to answer it but mum stopped me.

"Eleanor promise me you wont be that stupid and reckless again?" Mum begged more than she asked.

I could see she was really concerned so I nodded.

"I promise mum. Now can I answer my phone its Liam?" I told her.

Mum nodded just as I hit accept.


"Len how is she? Is she ok? Did Rachel get away? Ted called and told us what happened, said he was going after you. Where did you go? Are you ok? What's happening now? I'm coming home…" Liam rambled before I cut him off.

"Liam!" I yelled to shut him up.

Silence fell on the other end of the phone.

"Mum is fine she is awake and talking. Rachel didn't get away I went after her but she tried to kill me. Thankfully Ted showed up and stopped her. She is no longer a threat because she is dead. All we have to do know is find this so called kid she is talking about. The one she apparently had with Cyrus. I'm fine thanks to Ted I am with mum now. You don't need to come home everything and everyone is safe." I assured him.

"I'm glad to hear that but I'm still coming home. Ophelia and myself think its best we are with you all anyway. See you soon Len." Liam replied as he ended the call.

As I put my phone away I turned my attention back to mum who was starting to doze off.


"I will let you get some rest." I told her as I got up to leave.

However just as I was about to climb off the bed mum stopped me.

"Why don't you stay? From what I hear it's like a circus out there, besides I like the company. I'm not used to these…..circumstances." Mum smirked as she took in the small room.

"Not fit for a Queen eh?" I laughed.

"You tell me you're the next Queen." Mum smiled.

Her words hit me harder than I expected. I mean I knew I was next in line now but hearing them made me nervous. Mum seemed to sense this as she took my hand.

"You're going to be great Len. Today just proved that more, you put others before yourself. That's what a Queen needs to do." Mum comforted.

I could feel tears in my eyes as I listened to her. A few years ago I would have done anything to have moments like this with my mum. Even now it still shocked me how much things between us had changed in such a short space of time.

"Thanks mum." I whispered.

"Um changing the subject on that note I have something to tell you…" I trailed off.

Mum arched her eyebrows.

"Your not pregnant are you?" She questioned.

"What? God no!" I cried.

I could see mum breath a sigh of relief.

"Oh thank god!" She remarked.

"Well what is it then?" She pressed.

"Jasper proposed to me….you know when I was away to the bathroom." I blurted out.

Mum seemed to go into a stunned silence as she took in the news.

"Mum?" I asked hesitantly.

Finally she spoke.

"Len that's wonderful!" She grinned.

"Really?" I gasped.

"Of course it is! My little girl is getting married." Mum smiled.

"Where is my future son in law anyway?" Mum asked.

"Fighting off the paparazzi I think." I told her.

"Well go get him I want to thank him for helping you through everything. I can see the positive effect he has had on you now more than ever." Mum said.


Trying to convince Jasper to go into my mum's room was more of a challenge than I expected. He kept refusing because he didn't belief me that she was ok with our relationship. Finally I got fed up and shoved him through the door. Mum jumped as the door collided with the wall.

"Um hello your majesty…." Jasper muttered as he turned around and glared at me.

"Well Jasper I see you know how to make an entrance." Mum joked as Jasper blushed bright red.

"She pushed me!" He argued before realising who he was arguing with.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to disrespect you, you majesty." He apologized.

Both mum and myself couldn't help but laugh at his sudden new found respect towards is Queen.

"Jasper you can call me Helena and besides I think you will have many arguments with the new Queen as opposed to myself. So I would get used to it." Mum told him.

"So now that I have both of you here we need to talk Wedding." Mum announced.

"Don't you need to rest?" I replied.

"I did until you told me the good news." Mum grinned.

She immediately launched into Wedding talks and I knew from Jaspers face that he didn't have a clue what she was talking about. He was in for a long girly discussion…..

Until next time ;-)
