Consequences of her actions

The queen opened her eyes slowly and took a moment to adjust to the light around the room. She sat up on the bed and looked around, she found that she was outside. It wasn't the garden that she was used to but different.

"Where am I?" she asked.

"Keep it down. Don't say a word," Malia told to her. She placed a finger on the Queen mother's mouth to keep her from talking.

"What in the world permitted you to act like this with me. I will ruin you," the queen's mother shouted in anger. In all her life as queen, no one has ever treated her the way that this girl dared to do.

"Queen-mother," queen Sofia called. "Hello," she greeted.

"Hello Sofia, what are you doing here?" she asked.

"I live here mother. I am married to the king so that makes me the queen and Alex gave me the custody of his son so that makes me the queen's mother too," she informed.
