Cherreads

Chapter 18 - Chapter 18

Jasper nodded to Ash and Jake as he said, "Take him to the castle. We cannot hold him yet since we cannot charge him. We are going to have a discussion with Chloe, Catherien, and Elizabeth. Inform them ahead of time to be ready in the throne room in ten minuets. I need to get ready."

I walked into my closet to change since my plans to go riding are changing. As I was about to shut the door, Jasper stopped me.

"Hey you would look really good in a red dress. Will you please wear a red dress for me?" he asked as he leaned into my closet a tad bit.

I could see him staring at a red dress that I had finished a few days ago. I just nodded and smiled at him in agreement. He shut the door for me after he flashed me one of his killer smiles. I put on the red dress as his eyes suggested. I kept on the jewelry that I had on before but I put on a silver piece that wrapped around my upper arm on my right arm. I drew my hair back into a curly bun at the base of my skull. I decided on winged eyeliner. I kept my lips their natural color since there is a limit for too much red. I put on silver stilettos since the soft gown was made for heels since it would loose the wonderful silver embroidery at the bottom without it.

I stepped out of the closet as Jasper stepped out of his. He walked to me and looked me over as I did him. He was wearing a black suit with a matching red vest. He wore a stunning black crown that was only around an inch and a half tall but it had stunning rubies along the inside of the crown. I could see him holding another white wood box in his hands. It was slightly smaller than the one that housed the diamond crown.

Jasper stopped in front of me as he held out the box to me. I grabbed it and held it in my hands. He opened the box towards him so I could not see what was inside.

"Close your eyes." Jasper instructed and I followed.

I felt him placing another crown on my head. I smiled as I pictured what this one looked like. It was a great deal lighter than the last one. Once he was finished placing it on my head, I opened my eyes. He grabbed the box out of my hands and placed it on an empty spot on the book shelf. He looked back at me and smiled.

"How do I look?" I asked him as I turned around in a circle.

"Like a queen." he said as he linked his arm with mine.

"Why does everyone keep saying something about me being a queen of some sort?" I asked him as I entered the carriage that was waiting outside of my door. I was thankful for it since there was no way I could walk that far in this dress and get it dirty or to ride in it.

"Well you look like one to me." he said as he sat down next to me.

The ride to the castle was not long. I kept asking him about what the crown I was wearing looked like. All that he would tell me was that it matched his in color and gems but that the shape was slightly different. I could feel that the crown had a little bit of a dip down as I felt it on my forehead. When we arrived at the castle, we were informed that the women were running late. It was to be expected with them.

I followed Jasper into the throne room. He continued walking up the steps to in front of the thrones. He gestured to me to sit in the queen's throne but I shook my head no.

"Why not?" Jasper asked me as he turned to face me slightly.

"I am not a queen. Therefore, I cannot sit there." I replied to him.

He did not get a chance to reply as Chloe, Catherien, and Elizabeth were announced. I turned towards them at the same time as Jasper. I intertwined Jasper's right arm in mine as I faced the glares of the women. I was reminded of why we were here when I seen Annon enter the room behind them. My anger from before came back full force. Jasper glance down at me and smiled at the leveling glare I sent towards my little sister.
