All Mye Queen's Men, Chronicles of Love - Volume I (73 page)

"Queen,
are
you
sure
about
this?"

"Jade
I'm
in
love
with
him.
 
In
retrospect
I
probably
never
fell
out
of
love.
 
I
just
shut
off
my
feelings
because
he
hurt
me.
 
Then
he
came
to
my
rescue
after
this
shit
with
Zoey
and
Paul.
 
Since
then
we've
moved
right
back
to
where
we
were.
 
So,
when
he
asked
me
to
marry
him
I
said
yes."

"Queen,
Paul's
going
to
be
devastated.
 
You
know
that
right?"

"I
know,
but
after
he
finds
out
what's
been
going
down
with
me
and
Logic
he
won't
want
me
any
way."

"Queen,
you
know
that's
not
true."

"Yeah
it
is.
 
And
when
Logic
finds
out
about
me
and
Teddy
he
probably
won't
want
me
either."
 
Queen
sighed.

"So
how
will
Logic
find
that
out
if
you
don't
tell
him?"

"Jade
I
have
to
tell
him.
 
I
don't
want
to
build
our
marriage
on
a
lie.
 
I
can't
do
it.
 
It
will
haunt
me
for
the
rest
of
my
life.
 
I'm
going
to
come
clean."

"What
about
Teddy?"

"Yeah,
I
got
to
tell
him
the
truth
too."

"What
did
you
lie
to
Teddy
about?"

"Bear
never
knew
that
I
was
sleeping
with
Logic
when
we
were
screwing
in
the
wildflowers.
 
Needless
to
say
he's
going
to
be
pissed
because
I
cheated
on
him
and
Paul.
 
So,
what
can
I
say?
 
Hell,
between
the
three
of
them
I'll
be
lucky
if
they
ever
speak
to
me
again."

"That's
not
true.
 
All
of
them
are
in
love
with
you.
 
It's
all
over
their
face.
 
But
I
must
admit,
Logic
seems
to
have
it
the
worse.
 
He's
crazy
about
you
Queen."

"I
hope
you're
right.
 
Cause
he
ain't
getting
this
ring
back."
 
Queen's
easy
laughter
broke
the
seriousness
in
the
air.

"That
is
a
monster.
 
How
did
he
propose?"

"He
proposed
to
me
at
a
dinner
party
at
his
parents.
 
He
asked
me
in
front
of
everybody.
 
How
could
I
say
no?"

"So
he
shamed
you
into
a
yes?"
Jade
laughed.

"You
know
me
better
than
that.
 
I
know
how
to
say
no."
 
Queen
laughed
with
her.

"Yeah,
hell
to
the
fuckin
no!
 
I
believe
that's
how
you
like
to
say
it."

"Jade,
I've
been
on
the
fence
every
since
I
spoke
to
Paul.
 
I
think
that
this
was
Logic's
way
of
trying
to
sway
my
vote
from
Paul
to
him."

"More
like
swing
that
ass
from
Paul
back
to
him."
 
Jade
teased.

"Whatever
it
was,
it
worked.
 
It
made
me
think
about
the
future
and
not
about
the
past.
 
So
I
said
yes,
because
I
don't
want
to
live
without
him.
 
Now
I
have
to
tell
Paul."

"You
know
what?
 
If
Paul
really
loves
you
he'll
understand.
 
If
not
fuck
it."

"I
thought
you
were
on
Paul's
side?"
 
Queen
asked
confused.

"Don't
get
shit
twisted.
 
I'm
on
your
side,
plain
and
simple.
 
Men
will
come
and
go,
but
you'll
always
be
my
girl.
 
And
I
want
you
to
be
happy.
 
So
do
what
you
need
to
do.
 
Don't
let
anybody
steal
your
joy
because
they're
unhappy.
 
You
understand?"

"Yeah."

"Okay,
so
go
down
there
and
tell
each
one
of
them
what's
up,
starting
with
Logic.
 
If
he
got
a
problem
fuck
him!
 
Give
him
back
his
ring
and
then
pull
Paul
to
the
side
and
talk
to
him.
 
There
are
three
gorgeous
hunks
of
very
rich
chocolate
down
there.
 
Trust
me,
one
of
them
loves
you
enough
to
look
past
the
fact
that
you're
a
hoe."
 
Jade
declared
as
she
finished
her
speech
with
a
good
laugh.

Queen
laughed
with
her.
 
She
had
to
laugh
to
keep
from
crying.
 
But
she
knew
that
Jade
was
right.
 
Still
she
loved
them
all
and
she
really
didn't
want
to
see
them
hurt.
 
Hopefully
they
could
see
past
her
bullshit
to
forgive
her,
especially
Logic.
 
She
didn't
want
to
lose
him
again.
