The Overthrown Kingdom: Book 1

Eliza’s P.O.V

After me and Erica finished the to-do list, she said I was free for the rest of the day, so I went to Evie’s house. I was back to my normal Eliza self, and not as Victoria Queen when I came over, and knocked on the door.

“Hey, come on in.” said Evie as I entered and closed the door.

“I’m really sorry I bailed on you, but there’s something I need to ask you and your parents.” I said.

“Okay. Mom! Dad! Eliza wants to ask you something!” she yelled, then my aunt and uncle came in.

“What is it?” they asked. And so taking a deep breath, I said it really fast.

“Forthepast8yearsofmylifeI’vebeenrspedandabusedandItoldmymanagerandshetoldmetotellyouaboutitandsoI’mwoneringifyou’lladoptme?” I said.

“What? Could you repeat that whole thing over and a little slower?” asked Evie.

“I said, for the past eight years of my life I’ve been abused and raped. I told my manager about it and she told me to ask if you could adopt me?” I said more slowly. Right after I said that my aunt Eva had tears in her eyes.

“Oh. My. God, Eliza, you poor thing. Of course we’ll adopt you.” Said Aunt Eva.

“I always knew that Mr. Winters guy was no good. I should sue him.” Said Uncle Eric.

“Thanks. And I promise not to be a bother.” I said, not wanting to be intruding into their personal lives.

“Oh, sweetie, you could never be a bother to us.” Said Aunt Eva.

“Yeah, and plus I’ve always wanted a little sister.” Said Evie.

“What do you mean little sister?” I asked, confused.

“I’m seventeen, you’re still sixteen.” She said, smirking as I just made an o face. So later we had gotten the adoption papers, and Mrs. Winters agreed to the Queens adopting me, but for five-to-six months, then they’d have me back, since my real parents weren’t there that made her and Mr. Winters my legal guardians now.

No Ones P.o.v.

The other thing the Winters didn’t know was that Amber and Henry would be watching them to make sure Eliza was safe since they only sent her to Earth to be safe from the evil Greymore. Now was the weekend, Saturday, and Sunday would be when Evie and Eliza would go to Tynix. It was 11:00 a.m, so Eliza got ready for her afternoon with Jewelz. After taking a shower, she wore a pair of white shorts that had colorful splats of color, a blue crop top that made an x on the back, black high top wedges, and her hair was in a French braid.

Light blue, sparkly eye-shadow along with black mascara, and winged eyeliner, and blood red lip-gloss was her makeup. She wore a grey cardigan because it was a bit chilly, but not too much; plus the cardigan was a bit thin since she loved the cold. She was in her Victoria Queen disguise before grabbing her phone, laptop, and purse then leaving. She had texted her limo driver to be there and it was exactly 11:30 when they started driving to Jewelz’s house.

*30 Mintutes later*

Finally, Eliza had arrived at Jewelz’s house, which was a nice, simple, light purple and cream cottage like house with a light blue porch swing. She went to the door and rung the doorbell, a few minutes later it was opened by a woman in her early 30′s with light brown hair, green eyes, and mixed skin.

“Oh, Ms. Queen. Hi, do come in” she said and led her inside.

“Your house is quite lovely.” said Eliza, sitting down.

“Thank you. Um, Jewelz will be down in a moment.” she said then Erica came from the kitchen and set down a tray of snacks.

“Hey, I got here early to meet her parents.” she explains to me, while sitting down and grabbing a chocolate chip cookie. Jewelz came down wearing a purple tank top, dark blue shorts, and white high tops with her hair in a ponytail while having two strands of hair on each side of her face.

“Good you’re here, so let’s begin.” said Erica as she pulls her black and silver laptop out.

“First, we’ll need Tom buy a studio, or we can have one custom made for you. You choose.” Said Eliza as Erica went on Google.

“Um, buying one seems easier.” Said Jewelz then Erica searches up studios and look for one that Jewelz wants. About thirty minutes later, they finally found the studio Jewelz was looking for.

“It’s perfect, so how long will the construction take?” Asked Jewelz after they purchased it.

“Um.... Maybe 4-6 months.” Said Erica.

“Okay.” She said, while taking a brownie and eating it. So after discussing how they would get people to come, how the place should be decorated, and if Jewelz wanted a top floor for herself that would have a bedroom and stuff, they just ate and watched Prince of Persia until it was time for Eliza and Erica to leave. When they got back to the studio Erica said something.

“So what do you plan on doing for the next 3-6 hours, because you have an interview with Blair Lockes on Just Right and after that you have a photoshoot?” She asked.

“Umm, I’ll relax and me and Evie might go to the ice cream parlor before going to Tynix.” Said Eliza, while doing the bridge to stretch her muscles, then a few sit-ups, like maybe 10-20.

“Okay, well, I’ll just see you later girl.” Said Erica after Eliza was done.

“You too, bye.” Said Eliza, before leaving the studio and going into her dark blue Ferrari that Erica got her for her 15th birthday, and then driving to Evie’s house.
