The Perks of Being a Traitor

I dreamt I lived in a castle, which was distinctly familiar as a childhood home I lived in. This one however was ruled by a woman and an unreasonable one. She was cruel and made odd demands of me. I don't know for certain but I think I was a servant in this castle. More happened that I'd can't recall. A few highlights of things which happened to me which were unpleasant I do remember. I wasn't allowed to have any love. I dropped a bottle of perfume out my window but was too afraid of her finding out I had it to go get it. I was helping a cat, he hadn't been fed and was hungry, and I was in my room setting up dishes and leashes and collars attached to the dishes, like some bizarre reindeer pulling sleigh set up(with the cat as the sleigh) , well I got in trouble for that too. My father, was he my father or just a male figure in the house, came to find me because I was late to dinner, and went into a rage until I told him about the cat. Apparently I hadn't been cleaning and helping out everyone and I told him I was helping the cat, it hadn't been fed in days. He grumbled and made demands but let me reluctantly. I also so afraid, I thought he was going to beat me. The cat was black. Later I had a chance to be outside, the queen had ordered me outside for some reason, I found myself caught up in some magic, it was familiar. It swept me up and took me away instantly. I appeared before another queen, this one I kneeled to and called 'my queen' with relief, she was also mad at me. Said I had let her follow me(as a way to sneak into the kingdom) but it was difficult because my boyfriend kept attacking them. She yanked a chain and this Knight Monk character was on the other end. I shook my head frantically, telling her I didn't have a boyfriend, that he wasn't welcome and I had tried to tell him to go away countless times. She softly but not kindly stroked my cheek and said, 'willing or not he is your boyfriend. You are both bound.' And then she threw him off the deck of this ship we were apparently on, and the magical tether which was apparently between us yanked me off the ship after him into a blue ocean where I assumed he would tow me to shore. It was interesting. I realized I was a traitor at that point, she really was my queen, I felt an allegiance to her I did not the other. Also the other had dark black hair, updo and a thin point nose which sort defined her personality, this one was a warm curvy gold color, skin, hair, gold like the bricks you would use if you bought gold. And I loved her even though I was a bit scared she would think I was sabotaging her attempt to take over. The moment I felt was it felt like to be a traitor and have a good reason for it, I learned a new sympathy for traitors in all the stories you hear. Traitors are always made out to be forever untrust worthy and weak. I found out that stereotype wasn't the case here, and I felt sorry for those relegated to such prejudice.
