Mid morning Next day/ Charlotte’s Boat
“Will we be safe?” Isabella asks as she is helped by a Footman into Charlotte’s boat
Charlotte, who is already seated in the boat with her Ladies at her feet, answers “Of course. Now come on, you’ll adore the ride through the Canals. The Townsfolk are always happy to see us”
Exhaling, Isabella makes her way over to sit next to Charlotte. You, Catalina, and Marina follow, taking a seat by the feet of Isabella. Once everyone was seated and comfortable, the Oarsmen began rowing away from the Castle shores. About 30 minutes later, Catalina, Marina, Margaret, Beatrice, and Alice crammed to be shaded beneath the veils of the boat. The Sun becoming too much for their fair complexions to handle. You and Oshun sit slightly outside of the veils, the Sun not bothering either of you two.
“The Sun does not bother you my dear?” Charlotte asks
“No your Majesty” You answer
Curious, Charlotte asks “How is the Sun in Mexico?”
You smile reminiscing “So hot it warms the Earth, keeping her warm even when the Stars are out”
“Is that why you’re that shade of brown? Because of the Sun?” Margaret, Charlotte’s second youngest Lady, asks.
All eyes turn to Margaret the moment she asked. Margaret looks down knowing she spoke out of place
“Apologies your Majesty” Margaret speaks to Charlotte
“I’ll grant your apology, this one time-” Charlotte now addresses you “-Answer. Is that why you are the color of Earth?”
You softly shrug your shoulders “I don’t know. I suppose so.”
“You suppose so” Charlotte repeats without malice or cruelty, she simply repeated the words. Charlotte’s eyes look towards the Horizon, she can see the sights of the Town “Ah, we are arriving”
Conversation ceases, eyes look over to the Town coming slowly into view. Entering the Canals of the Town, many townsfolk waved and smiled in the direction of the Queens. Isabella, and Charlotte waved back with smiles on their faces. Some townsfolk started to throw flowers, or flower petals into the boat. Picking up some of the flowers that fell beside you, you pick out the ones that remained beautifully intact. Taking them, you quietly place them on Isabella’s lap. Though she will never admit it, she appreciates the gesture. Her hand picking one Rose up to smell it. Charlotte, she watches you with gratitude and hopes that maybe you’ll bestow some flowers on her lap.
Continuing down the Canal, more flowers and petals are thrown into the boat. One beautiful, perfectly in bloom, still on it’s Stem, pink Peony lands on your lap. Picking it up gently, you smile at just how perfect it is. Turning to Charlotte you ask
“If her Majesty allows it, may I place this flower in your hair?”
Charlotte is tickled by the gesture. Isabella purses her lips, jealous and upset you dare to be bold with Charlotte. Isabella remains quiet, waiting to see how Charlotte will react, so that she may give a proper reaction as well.
Charlotte answers you “Of course. Come and place the flower”
Getting on your knees, you walk over to Charlotte with the flower held gently in your hands. Being a few inches away from her, you gently tuck the flower stem into the braid by her ear, letting the flower itself rest against the side of her head. Moving away from Charlotte, you go back to where you were sitting.
“How does it look?” Charlotte asks
‘Beautiful’ and 'Perfect’ are the answers she receives from you and the others. Smiling, Charlotte gently ghosts her palm over the petals. Through her peripheral, Isabella glares at you. If you saw her, you ignored it.

Isabella’s quarters
Returning from the boat ride in time for supper, you, Catalina, and Marina worked to help Isabella change into different clothes.
Standing in the middle of the bedroom while you tightened her Corset, Isabella decided to voice her disdain over your actions with Charlotte.
“You’re bold to present Queen Charlotte with a flower to her hair. What ever made you think it was ok to ask for such a request?”
You answer her “I had presented your Majesty with the most beautiful flowers, I felt it would only be kind to show her Majesty Queen Charlotte the same treatment. I apologize if I offended you. I will seek forgiveness from Queen Charlotte as well”
Isabella scoffs “No need, it seems she appreciated your gesture. Do not do that again, understood?”
You answer “Yes your Majesty”
Isabella groans “Two years in a civilized world, and the savage in you remains.”
Biting back your frustration and anger, you remain quiet, continuing to adjust the corset. Catalina, and Marina stay quiet as well, both feeling bad that you always get the brunt of Isabella’s cruelty.
—–
During supper, Charlotte and Isabella conversed with one another, both seeming to enjoy whatever they were talking about. Sometime later, Charlotte spoke something to Isabella. Whatever was said, it made Isabella turn to look at you with anger in her eyes. You grew nervous thinking that perhaps you had overstepped with the placement of the flower in Charlotte’s hair. Thinking of what Isabella will do to you in privacy, you lose your appetite, now forcing yourself to finish what little you had left on your plate.
Isabella, and Charlotte continued talking, and whatever Isabella said left Charlotte looking pleased.
——–
Walking with Isabella to her quarters after Supper, you grew nervous over her eerie silence. Even while you helped her into her sleep gown, you remained on edge waiting for her fury to emerge. To your surprise, she did nothing. She undressed, climbed into bed, then dismissed Catalina, and Marina. She asked you to stay a moment.
Isabella, from the comforts of her bed, addresses you “Charlotte has requested you be at her side as soon as she wakes. You are to sleep in her ladies quarters tonight. I remind you to do as Charlotte asks. Do not embarrass me, understood?”
You answer “Yes your Majesty”
“You may go” Isabella dismisses you with a wave of her hands
You curtsy “Goodnight your Majesty”
Isabella says nothing. You leave her quarters.
———
Corridors
Heading to Charlotte’s quarters, Beatrice appears at the bottom of the stairs. She walks up to you, stopping you from going any further.
“I’m in charge of waking Queen Charlotte. Make sure you rise with the Sun, then wake her Majesty up. Oshun will make sure to wake you when needed. Goodnight”
“Goodnight” You say
Beatrice continues on, as do you.
Walking through the Corridors where Charlotte’s sleeping Quarters are, Oshun appears from an entryway. She whispers to you
“This way”
Following her, Oshun takes you to a small, doorless room where a single bed takes up most of the space.
Oshun turns to you “This is where Beatrice sleeps. You will sleep here tonight. I will come for you in the morning so you may wake Charlotte”
You nod “Thank you. Question?”
“Yes?”
“Why can you not wake the Queen yourself?”
Oshun answers “Her Majesty only wants one person to come upon her sleeping form. She hates an audience when she wakes. No need to worry, I will come for you to make sure you fulfill your duty.”
Again you thank her “Thank you. Goodnight Oshun”
Oshun turns around, then turns back to you “You know, the gesture with the flower? Her Majesty really appreciated it. She requested that flower be planted, grown, and presented in her Quarters from now on”
Oshun turns and walks out of the bedroom. You stay standing in place, smiling at the thought that Charlotte was truly pleased. However, you now wonder why Charlotte requested you to be of direct service to her.
–
Walking by Charlotte’s bedroom, Oshun is startled when the door opens. Standing in the open space of the door, Charlotte peeks her head out.
Curtsying, Oshun greets Charlotte “Your Majesty”
“Is Y/n in Beatrice’s quarters?”
Oshun answers “She is”
“Bring her to me. It’s her first time doing duties for me, I want her to sleep in here so she won’t worry about not waking me on time”
Oshun nods “Yes your Majesty.”
Oshun turns back to head to your quarters. Charlotte stays by the door, looking towards your quarters waiting for you to appear with Oshun. After a few moments, you and Oshun appear.
“Your Majesty” You curtsy
“Come in-” Charlotte tells you as she opens her door to let you in. You step in, going behind Charlotte. Turning to Oshun, Charlotte tells her “Say nothing of this to anyone, understood?”
“Yes your majesty”
“Go on. Goodnight”
Oshun replies “Goodnight your majesty”
Closing the door, Charlotte turns to you. You’re standing in place, hands clasped together, feet planted firmly on the ground. Charlotte is amused with how you remain so poised regardless of the time.
“How may I be of help?” You ask
“You can start by looking at me. Why do you always avoid looking at me?”
You look up at Charlotte “I’m accustomed to be this way with Queen Isabella. Apologies your Majesty”
“Formalities, I told you to leave those behind when it’s just us two”
“Yes, your..Charlotte”
Charlotte walks around you, going over to her bed. With her back to you, Charlotte removes her robe, leaving her nude. Climbing in, she turns around to see you trying your damn best not to be flustered.
“Come” Charlotte motions for you to walk over to her
Walking over, you stand at the side of the bed, waiting for more instructions.
“Undress yourself, then get in bed with me” Charlotte commands
“Bed with you?”
Charlotte chuckles “Of course. You don’t sleep standing, do you?”
You open your eyes wider with realization “Oh you want me to sleep in your bed?”
Charlotte again, chuckles “Yes, now undress”
Doing as she asked, you undress until you’re in your sheer nightgown. Though Charlotte has already seen you nude, there something about your hidden figure that has her adjusting herself from the blooming arousal growing in her. Going to the other side of the bed, you climb in, making yourself comfortable. Once she believes you’re comfortable, Charlotte moves to be next to you, her body lightly pressed against yours.
“Will his Majesty be upset if he finds me in your bed?”
Charlotte looks towards her door “No, he sleeps at the other end of the Hall. He prefers to sleep near our son than next to me. He won’t be coming in”
You nod your head, relaxing knowing nobody will come and bother you two.
“Would you like me to be completely undressed?” You ask
Charlotte’s smile turns into a little smirk “Remove it. I want to feel your bare flesh next to mine.”
Sitting upright, you reach down to pull your nightgown up and over your head. You can hear Charlotte’s breath hitch when your breasts are exposed to her.
“May I?” Charlotte asks, her hand ghosting over your breast
You nod in agreement. Charlotte gently cups your breast, her fingers graze over your nipple, hardening it up. Laying her palm flat against your chest, Charlotte guides you to lay back on the bed. Laying back, you watch as Charlotte moves the comforter off of you. Your heart begins to beat hard against your chest, heat rises in you, desire forms in your center, dripping out in hopes and anticipation. Charlotte’s eyes rake over your nude form, she can feel her own heart beat against her chest. Grazing her fingers over your breasts, down your belly, she traces the curve of your waist with her palm. A throbbing heat builds in her center, her mouth waters with desire to taste. Sliding her hand below the back of your knee, Charlotte faces you.
“Have you ever been bed by a woman?”
You answer truthfully “No I have not”
“Would you like to?”
For a moment you contemplate if you want to bed the Queen, and if you do, what will happen after. You fear Isabella finding out about this, surely she’ll have your head for it. If you deny Charlotte, will she become enraged to where she will have Isabella take care of you as she sees fit?. Knowing you’re damned either way, you give in to Charlotte’s desire.
Your voice shakes as you answer “Yes. Yes I would like to”
Smiling, Charlotte sits up in bed. She moves your leg up to rest against the front of her body. Lowering herself down, her center presses against yours. The wetness and heat coming from her makes you moan her name out. Taking hold of the sheets below you, you grip them as you and Charlotte rock your bodies back and forth, creating the desired friction between your legs.
“My dear Earth, you feel divine between my legs. Tell me what you feel”
Moaning, you answer her through pleasured breaths “I feel you, only you. I desire only you my Queen”
Charlotte moving away from your body makes you pout at the loss of pleasure and warmth. The loss is quickly replaced by Charlotte turning you on your side as she herself lays on her side. Facing you, Charlotte brings her hand down between your legs. Her fingers play with your folds, coating them with your slick. Sliding two fingers inside of you, you gasp.
“Touch me as I touch you” Charlotte whispers
Bringing your hand between her legs, you coat your fingers with her slick, sliding two fingers inside of her. Charlotte moans out, you close your eyes marveling at the feel of her silk walls against your fingers. Pumping them up and down inside of her, Charlotte moans as she bucks her hips with your movements. She, like you, starts to pump her fingers up and down inside of you. Between the kissing, mixing of breaths and moans, the seeds of love are being planted in both your hearts.
Heat builds in your cores, eyes close, walls tighten, and the burst of pleasure envelopes both your bodies. Holding on to one another as you came, you both cried out loud from the intensity. Panting, and coming down from the freefall, you let your eyes wander up to look at Charlotte. Charlotte’s eyes meet yours in a smile
“Say you belong to me” Charlotte whispers
“I belong to you” You answer her, peppering her lips and cheeks with kisses
—-
Hours of pleasure and bliss passed between you two, until you were too tired to continue. Falling asleep in one another’s arms, you slept at peace for the first time in 2 years.
——
Your internal clock woke you as the black sky started to give way to hues of blues and pinks. As quietly as you could, you slid out of Charlotte’s bed.
“Tell me my Earth-” Charlotte calls out
You gasp, turning around to see a very happy Charlotte propping herself up on her elbows. Her messy hair falls like a waterfall around her sculpted face. Patting the side of the bed, Charlotte beckons you to return. Obeying, you slide back in bed. Charlotte pulls you close to her by your middle, her head lays on your shoulder.
“Would Isabella give you to me? As a parting gift?”
You exhale softly, kissing the top of Charlotte’s head “No she would not. I am the gift of peace between my people, and his Majesty Alfonso. I cannot be bargained”
Charlotte pouts. Sitting up, she throws one leg over you to straddle your lap “If I cannot have you, then I will enjoy what time we are gifted together. Now, let me feel you inside me again”
Smiling, you and Charlotte lose yourself in a quick tryst.
——
At breakfast, Charlotte and Isabella talked while you and the other ladies ate at your designated table.
“Did Beatrice meet your expectations?” Charlotte asks
Isabella smiles “She’s spectacular, far better than my other three”
Charlotte takes this opportunity to ask “Then you wouldn’t mind if you kept Beatrice with you for the remainder of your stay, and I take Y/n in her place?”
Isabella chuckles “Has the savage been that obedient?”
“Oh my dear Isabella, why must you call her that?”
Isabella answers “Well because she is one. Filthy little creature”
“Well, savage or not, you have disciplined her enough to be useful. Please, let me gift you Beatrice for your stay. I want you to enjoy yourself as much as possible”
Isabella purses her lips, she contemplates the idea for a few moments, finally she answers an anxious Charlotte “I don’t see why not. Beatrice can teach Catalina, and Marina how to be proper ladies.”
Charlotte claps her hands happily. Margaret stands in motion to see if Charlotte needs anything. Charlotte waves her to stop, she’s fine. Sitting back down on her seat, Margaret resumes her breakfast.
—
Walking out of the breakfast hall, Charlotte addresses her ladies, Isabella, and Isabella’s ladies.
“Please show Isabella the King’s gardens. I need to meet with my painter for a brief moment. I will find you when I am done.”
Curtsying, the Ladies guide Isabella in the opposite direction. You’re about to follow when Charlotte stops you
“You my dear, come with me”
Following Charlotte out, you two walk around until she finds a hidden area. Pinning you against the wall, Charlotte kisses your lips.
“My Earth, you are to be with me for the remainder of Isabella’s stay.”
“Pardon?” You ask confused
“Isabella is pleased with Beatrice’s duties. I gifted her Beatrice for the remainder of her stay. In return, I asked that you be given to me in Beatrice’s place. Isabella agreed. You’ll do your duties for me as you would Isabella. However, you will be given the privilege of sleeping in my bed as well. Are you happy?”
You smile “Yes your Majesty”
“Charlotte”
You nod “Charlotte.”
Charlotte kisses you again “Come, you must meet Gustav my painter”
Taking you to a sun room, Charlotte introduces you to Gustav; a 6'3 slender man in his mid 20’s. Gustav has soft curly brown hair with hints of blonde in it. His emerald green eyes are framed by dark long lashes, and thick defined brows. His nose is long and narrow, stopping right above plump round lips. His skin is almost as brown as yours, perhaps a shade or two lighter. Gustav is a handsome kind man that Charlotte absolutely adores.
Gustav is Charlotte’s favorite painter, he always brings or sends her paintings of the land’s he’s staying on. When he comes to the Castle, he paints whatever Charlotte wants. Seeing that she’ll never get to Mexico, she asked that you describe your homeland to him, and for him to bring your memories to life on Canvas.
“Are you not staying your Majesty?” You ask once you see Charlotte leaving
Charlotte turns to you “No. I like to be surprised with my paintings. However, I will return before sunset. Shan’t be long dear Earth”
Coming back to you, Charlotte kisses your lips quickly before departing. You turn your flustered cheeks to Gustav who had a twinkle in his eye. Sitting back on the bay window, you went into detail describing Mexico to Gustav. He listened attentively, picturing everything to be able to put it on a Canvas. You spoke of the green trees and green grass that made the area alive, you also described the endless sea of sand and sky, how blistering the Sun was, and how only the toughest of creatures could withstand such a desolate dry place. Describing the ocean was what really made Gustav listen. He had seen the Mediterranean sea plenty of times, yet the description of the white sands, crystal blue waters, and warm sun made him realize that the new world is no different from this world. Perhaps Mexico is an undiscovered jewel that he hopes remains that way. Such beauty should be kept secret at times. You rambled on and on for hours, talking about the lands, the smells, and what you miss the most. The bright blue sky outside started to grow dark and in shades of saturated pinks, reds, purples, and blues.
Charlotte came in moments after, alone, she walked right on over to lay into your awaiting embrace. She unashamedly lays kisses on your face, and neck.
Turning to face Gustav, she asks him “How have you and my Earth taken to one another?”
Gustav’s answers “She is divine your Majesty. Quite a treasure, unfortunate you can’t keep her”
Charlotte pouts, laying her head on your breast “I know, such tragedy. Tell me dear, can you paint us instead of Mexico?”
Gustav raises an eyebrow “My head will be gone from my body if I create such an image”
Charlotte chuckles “Not if I keep it in my special room. Nobody, not even the King enters without my say so”
Gustav comes over to you and Charlotte. He looks you both over, a smile on his face.
“You two do look divine. I’ll make your painting”
Charlotte perks up “Magnificent. How will you paint us?”
Gustav stands back, he observes you and Charlotte, and how natural you two seem to connect. A lightbulb goes off in his mind, idea birthed right then and there.
“I shall paint you as a winter’s day. Your Majesty, your complexion is white like snow, and you my dear as brown like the Earth. With her laying on you, it’s as natural as when the Snow lays itself on the Earth, holding on tightly until it’s time to depart.”
You and Charlotte love the description Gustav gave you two.
“You are simply poetic my dear.” Charlotte sighs
Gustav blushes at the compliment. “Poetry you two are. Now, lay still so I can capture the shape of my vision”
Getting comfortable, Charlotte lays herself on top of you. Her arms wrap around you, holding you in place. You wrap your arms around Charlotte, losing your eyes in hers. Forgetting Gustav is in your presence, you and Charlotte start to kiss, the intensity and desire growing strong.
“My dears, if I was not so infatuated with men, I would die to be between you both right now”
You and Charlotte stop kissing, turning your gazes to Gustav who has an impish grin on his face.
Charlotte replies to his statement “Hush you. Are you telling me that if I bed her right here, you would not feel the desire to join?”
Gustav let’s out a hearty laugh “With respects my Queen, I would not”
Charlotte takes it as a challenge. She moves her hand beneath your clothing until she finds your center. Without warning, she slips two fingers inside your wetness. You gasp out at the intrusion. Gustav continues to work on his sketch, his smile widening as Charlotte continues to pleasure you. You try to cover your mouth to muffle your moans, Charlotte stops you by removing your hand out of the way. She wants you to be heard. Thrusting her fingers inside of you, you start to worry less with Gustav seeing you, and start to focus more on the growing tension inside of you. Grunting, and moaning, you keep going until Charlotte hits the right spot that sends you over the edge. You slip beneath her, moaning as you come undone with her still in you. Freeing her hand from within you, she brings it out to show how much you came on her. Gustav turns to you both, his face unchanged.
“The Earth is happy, Her majesty is gifted with her hands, and I still desire men. I will clap for the performance.” Gustav says as he claps his hands
Blushing, you hide your face behind Charlotte’s head. Charlotte laughs with Gustav. Pulling you up to your feet, Charlotte addresses Gustav.
“Have you got enough to start with?”
Gustav answers “Yes your majesty”
Charlotte nods “Very well. We will see you tomorrow. Goodnight dear”
“Goodnight your majesty. Dear Earth, it was an honor to meet you”
You smile at Gustav “You too”
Leaving the room, Charlotte and yourself go back to your roles of Queen, and Lady in waiting. At least until you two are alone again.
