A/N: My apologies guys for my absences on this book. I had LOTS of things to do irl.. But, I'm back now. Here's Pt. 2 of "Red Queen", I hope you enjoy.

*~..........~*

Previously on The Demon Crew...
Queen Orlina has been taken (or kidnapped) by King Lucas. They just met on the first Episode and they were coming more "accustom" to each other. Anyways... (story begins down below.)

Orlina was already in the dungeon, not knowing what to do. She looked around the dusty room, all she see was the window. The window was always the only way out, but she knew she'll be caught by his guards.

'What am I going to do? He can't keep me prisoner for long..' Her mind said, hugging her legs close to her chest.

"My lord, what should we do with the Queen?" She heard one guard was talking to the King. Orlina looked over at her cell and see them talking about something..

"I planned to have her stay at my castle until we're married." Lucas said, making Orlina gasp.

"But my lord, what if she tried to escape?" His guard asked. "Hmm good question, I'll have to add security systems around here." He said, walking. She could hear his footsteps coming her way, she moved away from the cell.

Before King Lucas could get the key to come in the cell, Orlina grabbed his wrist and said, "Let me go! You can't keep me prisoner for long!" He only snickered, looking deep into her eyes.

"And what makes you think I will?" He asked, raising a brow.

"My people need me at my Kingdom and they'll go crazy without me." She finished. Lucas listened, not knowing what to say next.

"Hello?! Aren't you gonna say anything?!" The Queen said, scoffing at him.

'Why can't she tell that I'm in love with her.' His mind whispered. "Hello?!" He snapped out of his thoughts and said, "Huh? What?" Orlina looked at him, unamused — Knowing he wasn't paying attention.

"Agh! I said, my people need me at my Kingdom and they'll go crazy without me." She repeated.

That time Lucas listened carefully and responded, "They won't be worried.." "And how would you know that?! You're not one of my people." The Queen sarcastically said.

"...I'll send my guards there and they'll protect your Kingdom." He finished his sentence. 'You got to be kidding me?! But, they need me! I'm the Queen, every Kingdom needs a Queen!' Her mind said, angrily.

Before she could say anything, he said, "While I have you here with me, I'd expect respect from you.." Orlina gasped, watching his every movement.

"Respect?! For a King like you, YOU "disrespected" me by kidnapping me!" She angrily said, her face red.

The word "kidnapped" got him shocked and turned to face her. "Kidnapped is such an "unmannered" and not a very "royalty" word to say." Was all he said out of his mouth. (New word for me; "unmannered") XDDD

"Really? That's all you have to say." She didn't seem to get it. "I'm keeping you in my castle for long periods of time.." She gasped again and said, "For how long?"

His back was facing her this time and replied, "...Maybe 3 weeks or more." He finished, walking off.

Queen Orlina sat on the rusty floor, her hands tugging her hair. She almost felt like crying, but she held them in. '3 or more weeks?! You gotta be out your mind!' Her mind said, swimming with negativity.

But lucky enough, time flies by really fast. It was already the 3rd week and a fresh start, too. She survived his castle without escaping and she got used to his guards, even Lucas too.

Friday night at 8:00...
It was dinner time with the King, Orlina was wearing "royal" clothings he brought her. She walked down the stairs, smiling at him on her way down. The King was smiling brightly, loving how pretty she looks.

When she already out down, he offered her his arm. <-(like a true "gentleman" would.) As happy Orlina is, she took his arm and blushed alittle.

"I gotta say, you look enchantingly stunning in that dress.~" He complimented, almost flirting. The Queen blushed a rosy pink and said, "Th-Thank you." 'Damn! Why did I stutter in front of him?' Her mind said, embarrassed.

When they got to the dining room, Orlina looked shocked by how long the table was. "Like the dining room?" He said, smirking. "I...I love it." She eyed every detail on the table.

Lucas smiled and pulled out a chair for her to sit. Orlina walked up to the chair and sat down, he pushed it towards the table and sat across from her. "Wow! Your a gentleman for once." She began.

"Heh, wasn't I at first?" He rubbed the back of his neck. "At first, until you "harshly" kidnapped me." After hearing that statement, he looked down feeling bad for what he done.

He placed his hand on top of hers and said, "I'm extremely sorry, m'lady." He kissed her hand, lovingly.

She blushed darker this time and sweetly said, "If I treat you with "respect", you should treat me like one, too." King Lucas nodded and responded, "Always will, starting now." He kissed her hand up to her arm.

Orlina blushed, giggling. "Right now? Why not later?" Lucas smiled, but only winked.

Time skip next day; Saturday...
Saturday came so fast, Orlina was sleeping with Lucas. (Yes, they got married and had "sex" the third time.) Lucas was already awake, facing her. "Oh Lucas, that was "some" marriage."

"Yeah, I never knew a King like me could fall for a Queen like you.~" He flirtatious said, rubbing her thighs under the sheets. She blushed, kissing his lips.

"Orlina, may I call you my "Red Queen"?" He offered a hand. "L-Lucas, what are you trying to say?" She wanted more answers, looking at his hand confused.

"I'm saying, I want you to be my "Red Queen" and live happily with me." She blushed, but took his hand anyways. "I'd love to be your "Red Queen"." They both kissed then went back to sleep in each other's arms. The End!

THE END!!!
