Chapter 153 - The Meeting Part 1
Andromeda sighed and stared at nowhere as her subordinates present their presentations. She told them to keep presenting while her mind is elsewhere. Then she thought.
Who are the people that are loyal to her? Who are the people that are betraying her?
She sighed and then reached a knife from her table and throw it to the white screen. It hit directly on the very middle that startled everyone.
Maybe it's time to give them limits.
"Sit down for a while." She said sounding depressed and the man sat down, and she stood. "I am just feeling depressed that I can't trust all of you with anything." She said. "Just recently, my husband almost got shot by a sniper. That was months ago. Then, I took the sniper to our facility for interrogation, but someone just shot him directly to his skull." She sighed again dramatically.
Then she signed her secretary to play the footage. It is now aired in the whole facility and while her voice is also aired on the microphone.
"So, this is Leon. He's one of the great soldiers here in our facility. But this soldier chose to betray his Queen. I couldn't forget how he killed this sniper that nearly killed my husband. This is going to air every day in the whole facility and anyone who betrayed me will pay big consequences."
Everyone is surprised by this. They are going to watch this torture for hours every day. She stood from her seat and went to her office to finish a few things. She took all her day and forget about eating. She just kept drinking tea and focused on reading the reports.
Five hours had passed but she's still there reading and would only visit the bathroom if she needed to. Then her door suddenly opened, and she turned her swivel chair to see her husband with a paper bag on his hand.
"Zach, why are you here?" She asked. He lifted the All Access Card under her name and then he locked the door and put the food on the small dining table.
"You haven't replied to me or call me. I got worried. Then I checked from your secretary and said that you don't want to be disturbed. It's past your lunch meal and you need a break."
"Are you supposed to be in an important meeting?" She stood from her seat and strode to him, giving him a big kiss.
"It ended early and I am worried." He held her hand and kissed her forehead. "Let's eat and then we could work that ass off after. You've been sitting for hours."
"Let's just work this ass first." She winked and slowly bit her lip seductively.
Zach swallowed hard and then he pulled his tie since it's getting hot in her office.
"You don't have cameras here?"
"Nope." She winked. Of course! She would install it all by herself.
Zach took her to her bedroom, where a Queen bed is waiting for them. He peeled her shirt and her pants and removed her bras and panties throwing it wherever it flies. They are both panting, and Zach pressed her on the mattress. He spread her legs and kissed her down there lubricating it and then thrust on her without words.
As he thrust, he closed his eyes listening to the music coming from her. He opened her eyes and she opened hers as their eyes met staring at each other passionately.

It's thirty minutes of lovemaking when Zach, decided to dress up and told her to put something on. Then he prepared their food. After he settled in, he stopped. His queen is a monster to everyone's eyes. But she was his angel and his adorable cat. Outside, when he entered the lobby, it's like a movie playing on every screen. A man is being tortured, his skin is being peeled by a man in a masked slowly.
But he can't just tell her that it's wrong. She's supposed to be heartless but, he had her heart. Andy is threatened by her people and now, she is threatening them back.
"That look famishing." She hugged her from behind and caressed his abdominal.
"I know that you are hungry." He pulled a chair for her and she sat down. He served her food and she started eating without using utensils.
He settled down and then give her more food.
"So, you just scared your people?"
"Yes." She answered. "Sometimes, you have to use your furry to rule a kingdom. If they keep thinking that you are nice, they wouldn't respect you and get scared of you before they even think of betraying you."
Zach nodded. His Dragon Queen is surely invincible, but she must. She's leading a big army and ruling a big kingdom. People wanted her head and take her out from the throne, but he knows that Andy is ruling this empire to keep the peace. He doesn't know what her visions are which is odd, but he trusts her, and he believes her because he saw her freaked out with that vision even though she's awake.
He reached her hair and tuck it at the back of her ear. He pulled out a band from his pocket that he always have so when they have an intimate moment, her hair wouldn't get on the way. He stood and move behind her, gathering her hair and tie it neatly.
"My mom settled a family meeting dinner tonight."
"That's good. Do I have to wear something sexy?" She grinned at him. He laughed and held her stomach.
"You don't need to wear anything showy."
"That's good then." She said. "Should I put nothing at all?" She grinned at him.
"Hmm. I think that I'll just lock you up in our room." He kissed her top head.
Andy laughed and continue eating. After they ate, they washed up, dressed up and walked outside without holding hands. It's like they are talking casually as they walked around the facility. She's explaining to him about the security facilities and the restricted areas that she needed more security and other gadgets that he might have. It's like they are talking in business.
"My company would give a lot of money for that." She said after explaining everything that she needed in the facility.
Zach nodded and take note of it.
"Okay. I think I need more money to spoil my wife. So, I will tell my secretary to prepare a contract for that."
"Good. I'll tell mine as well." She pulled her phone and tell her secretary to prepare a contract for their electronic access control.
He offered his hand for a handshake and she, in a very business-like shook it with a little press. Then they continue walking around.
"So, Mrs. Pattinson, where do you think is the best holiday country to go to for this coming Christmas?" He asked.
"I think, Mr. Pattinson, that home will be better. Less expense and more on screwing on the bed." She said with a sneaky winked. Zach laughed and then he cleared his throat to stop himself from laughing. They passed a few employees who saluted on them and he nodded as a response.
"I will take that as a choice." He told.
"How about you, Mr. Pattinson? Where do you want to go for this coming holiday?"
"You know, the place doesn't matter to me, what mattered to me is who I am with." He said it casually but it makes her fluttered.
"So, who is going to be with?"
"My wife, of course."
They are talking like they are just acquaintances or friends. But anyway, when it comes to business, the two are very professional.
"Good for you." She said and then crossed her arms. "Let's go to the shooting range."
A golf cart is reserved for them and she drove it to the shooting range, 3 kilometers from the main building.
"If you wanted to use the shooting range, you have to pay for the fee." She said.
"Didn't I settle it a while ago?" He said in a very innocent way. She smirked. "I thought that it's already settled." He said and they are thinking the same thing and reminiscing the Queen bed back to her office.
"Well, I will see through it."
"Mrs. Pattinson, I already settled it." He insisted.
"Okay." She giggled.
