Epic of Bee

"I think that is all we have for now," the middle-aged Queen said as she stood up from her chair, and the rest of the Wasp Queens followed suit. "We will be in touch soon."

"You can leave the Queen here with me. If this is who you are giving me, then she has nothing to do with your choices. Since she is likely going to be living here, I would like to take some time to get to know her a little better, if that is alright with the three of you," I asked, and they all nodded.

Leah and Riza both tensed up at my words, but they knew better than to say anything in front of the other Queens. The three Queens all said their farewells before leaving the room, leaving Leah and Riza with me, as well as the young Wasp Queen, who was still glaring daggers at me.

"Girls, I would like you to leave the room as well," I requested, looking back and Riza and Leah.

"If you think that is best, then we will oblige, but we will be standing outside the door," Riza said as Leah looked at me uneasily. I remembered when she was my bulky and buxom Bee-Brawler, but now she was so pretty and cute, but she was also much stronger.

"This one looks on edge, my Queen, so Bee careful," Leah said as the girls left the room, leaving the two of us alone.

"My name is Ashia, Queen of this place, and I am sure that this is all a lot to take in. While I asked a Queen for my own reasons, I am not going to treat you poorly, nor will I force you to do anything that you don't want to," I explained, but the young Wasp Queen still glared at me.

"I am sure you say that to all of the Queens that you forcefully take," she spat out, and I shook my head.

"You misunderstand the situation; I did not force your sisters into anything. They made their own choices in this matter, and while I may have played a role in it, they are the ones that decided what was going on. As for you, I want to get to know you better. Maybe we can even be friends," I said, as friendly as possible, but she still glared at me defiantly.

It was going to take some time before this one warmed up to me; that much was clear from her current attitude. Maybe with time, though, things would change, and we could get along better than expected, but for now, it seemed like an uphill battle.

"Can I at least get a name from you? I understand that you are going through a lot, but it would mean a lot to me," I asked, and she stared at me for a long moment before sighing in resignation.

"Fine, my name is Ashlynn. I was the Wasp Queen Bee-fore your intrusion and forced trade," she said, and I couldn't help but wince at her words.

"I am sorry about that; it was never my intention to force anything on anyone. I hope that in time you can forgive me for the role that I played in this," I replied, but she just shrugged her slim shoulders.

"It doesn't matter now; what's done is done," she muttered before falling into a stony silence, once again staring daggers at me as if daring me to say something else. "What happens if I don't want to produce for you? Will you just have them hold me down and let the drones force themselves on me?!" she suddenly demanded, and I shook my head.

"Of course not; that would be barbaric, and I would never allow such a thing to happen. If you don't want to produce for me, then you don't have to, but I hope that in time you will see that this is for the best," I explained, but she just glared at me. "Look, I have an idea of what species I want your Mating Drone will be, but you can pick who you want as a partner. I have to find some for Raine as well, so in the near future, we can take some trips to go boy shopping!"

"Boy shopping?" Ashlynn asked with a confused look on her beautiful face.

"Yeah, it is when you go and find the Bee-st mate for your daughters," I explained, and she just stared at me in disbelief. "Well, you and Raine are like my daughters in a way, so I want to make sure that we find a Mate that you are comfortable with because were are going to need lots of workers soon and wide varieties!"

"Why do you sound so normal about this?! Don't you just have a bunch of drones have their way with me, and that is all?!" she exclaimed, and I couldn't help but flinch at her words.

"Of course not! We want you to be happy here, and I would never force anything on you; that is not my style. This is a new start for all of us, and we need to Bee able to work together if we are going to make this work," I explained, but she just glared at me.

"I don't know if I can trust you," she finally said after a long moment of silence as she stared at me. "You have taken everything from me: my home, my family, my freedom. What else could you possibly want from me?"

"I just want us to work together; that is all. I am sorry for everything that has happened, but it doesn't have to Bee this way," I said, but she just glared at me. "Look, let's just start over. Hi, my name is Ashia; what is your name?" I asked as I held out my hand to her in a friendly gesture.

She stared at my hand for a long moment before sighing and shaking her head as she took it and shook it gingerly as if she was afraid of breaking me. "Hi, my name is Ashlynn," she replied quietly before letting go of my hand and falling back into silence once again. This was going to take some time; that much was clear from the way things were going so far. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

"Just try to loosen up a bit! Not tomorrow, but the next day we are going to get in the Super Otter Bee Mega Cat Battleship Mk II with my SugaBee Queen and you, and a small party, and we are going to go talk to some other nations. I would like to see if they want to join me, and if not, then to see if we can trade anything. During that time, we will also Bee looking around to see if there are any men we can abduct to Bee-come drones for me!" I said with an excited smile, clapping both sets of my hands together, but Ashlynn's look was now horrified.

"You can't just go around abducting people!" she exclaimed in disbelief, and I shrugged my shoulders.

"Of course not; that would be wrong. We will just have to find some that want to come with us," I replied, and she just stared at me in disbelief. "Look, it will Bee fun! You can pick who you want as your personal Mating Drone."

At those words, her cheeks turned a bright red as she averted her gaze from mine, but I could tell that the idea had intrigued her. Maybe this wouldn't Bee so bad after all!
