Hi, this was meant to one shot set in the Enchanted Forest during the missing year, with a whole load of OutlawQueen. I am now continuing it so, I hope you enjoy. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own these character

Regina was completely frustrated, why did Snow and Charming find it fit to pair everyone in the council off for them to search for a way to defeat Zelena? She was perfectly capable of doing it alone, she didn't need help, especially help from him. The outlaw who had been plaguing her day and night, daily with his annoyance and nightly with her sinful dreams of him. For whatever reason she couldn't get him out of her head and it was tiresome.

They had been walking with the Charming's when they had suggested they split up, Regina had said that she would go with anyone and she meant anyone other than Robin, but of course they don't listen to what she wants, so she was now partnered up with the thief.

She trudged a couple of meters in front of him, so she was paired with him, it didn't mean that she had to be civil towards him did it? She pushed a few overhanging branches out of the way and spitefully allowed them to fling back and hit him.

"Hey!" He protested with a mouthful of leaves.

"Oops." She shrugged her shoulders not turning around.

"You did that on purpose."

"You sound like a child in the playground." She scoffed.

"And you act like a child in the playground."

Rolling her eyes, she carried on walking, pretending that his accent wasn't effecting her in every way imaginable and the way his blue eyes shone when he was annoyed about something. "Whatever thief." She took a left turn and heard his muttering behind her. "What?" She scolded, whipping around to look at him, swishing her deep purple and black cape as she did so.

"Nothing, I just think you're going the wrong way that's all."

"How do you know that?" She scowled.

"Because, it's this way your majesty." he pointed in the opposite direction.

"Well I'm going this way." She shook her head and carried on walking. Oh how she wished she had worn some more sensible clothes than the ones she had opted for. She was wearing full black leather, skin tight leather trousers, tall leather boots and a leather cape which covered a black corset and went down into a purple expanse of fabric. As for the hair, she had gone for the biggest and craziest look she could achieve; her long black locks were curled and piled onto the right side of her head, in a big bushy style, then there was a black hat perched on top. Her eyes were made up in the usually smoky way, but she had toned down the lipstick a little to a pinky purple shade, a change from her usual signature red colour.

"Fine, you get us both lost in here, it's not as if I know my way around this forest." He stated sarcastically.

"I am going this way, you can follow me or stay behind, suit yourself."

"As you wish, milady."

She could tell she had annoyed him and he was probably right, they most likely were going the wrong way. He was following her, an annoyed look on his face. She glanced at him over her shoulder and he rolled his eyes at her.

They had been walking for another thirty minutes when she stopped and leant against a tree.

"Are you okay?" He asked halting in front of her.

"I'm fine." She snapped "just resting."

"Why do I bother?" He scoffed, throwing his arms up. "I should have just left you."

"Why didn't you then?"

"Because."

"Because what?" She bit.

"Because I couldn't."

"Why?"

"Just leave it Regina."

"What?"

"I said leave it!"

She narrowed her eyes at him, was he concerned about her safety? "What did you just call me thief?"

"Regina, that's your name is it not?"

"Did I give you permission to call me that?"

"You have got to be kidding me!" He huffed and began walking.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

"I don't have to put up with your shit!"

"Robin!"

He whipped around to glare at her "Whoa, so you can use my name? I'm surprised you know it!" He snapped before continuing.

"Don't walk away from me!" She grabbed his arm, pulling him backwards.

He turned around and grabbed both her arms. She nearly stopped breathing as she squared up to him. He was looking at her intently and before she knew what was happening his lips crashed into hers, her arms instinctively went up around his neck, pulling him closer.

No this was bad, she couldn't do this, she couldn't kiss him, but it felt so good, so right. They were pressing right against each other and the sensation was amazing. She pulled back, her eyes lit with fire. "What the hell do you think you are doing?!" She asked, putting some distance between them.

"Sorry." He shrugged a smirk on his face. "Couldn't resist."

She shook her head and started walking.

"It's this way your majesty, trust me."

She shook her head and instead of carrying on she turned around and walked his way. "Fine." She scoffed "The sooner we get back to the castle the better."

They were walking for another ten minutes and she was aware of his eyes on her, she discreetly looked over her shoulder at him and he winked at her! The cheek, she thought, but that wink did things to her caused a heat to rise within her and not a heat formed from anger, no, a heat formed from desire. She was still looking at him as she walked and before she knew it, she was tripping up over a root sticking out of the ground.

"Regina!" He hurried over to her and leant down to where she had moved to sit up. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." She nodded, brushing the mud off her leather trousers.

"You're bleeding." He brushed his hand over her cheek where blood was streaming. "Gina."

She looked at him and her heart soared, the tenderness of the gesture made her head spin.

"Oh." Her hand found his, carefully moving it down before healing the cut.

"There." He grinned "beautiful."

She tilted her head at him and couldn't help a slight smile coming upon her face. He moved his hand back up, running his thumb over where the cut had been.

"Robin." She whispered, closing her eyes.

"Tell me it's not one sided." He stated "tell me that you feel it too."

"I." She stammered "I don't know."

"You have to feel something."

"I do, I feel something, I just don't know what." She shook her head.

He grinned at her "you feel something."

"Don't give me that smug look." She sighed.

"No, I'm not smug, I'm just happy."

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why do you feel something?"

He laughed "I have no idea, half the time you frustrate me to no end, but I can't help the way I feel for you. I wasn't going to let you walk off in the woods alone."

She looked down to the ground "Robin, I don't know what to say."

"Don't say anything, just feel." He stated finding her lips again, this time his kiss was more gentle as his lips brushed against her.

She closed her eyes and kissed him back, for the first time in a long time she felt something, felt something towards a man, towards someone other than Henry, it couldn't be love that was a ridiculous notion. All she knew was that his lips against hers made her feel alive, his kiss was raw and pure and he seemed to be putting every ounce of emotion he possessed into it.

She broke the kiss, her hands moving to cup his face. "We should be getting back." she stated.

"Indeed, now, will you let me lead?"

"I suppose I could do that." She nodded as he helped her up off the floor.

"Do you feel okay?"

"Mmm." She nodded, following him through the woods. It took them a further forty minutes to reach the castle, it had been a time of little conversation, just the odd comment here and there. Regina hadn't been able to get what he had confessed to out of her head, he felt something towards her, how had that happened? She thought they had mutual hate towards one another, but it wasn't true, she had been denying her feelings, well, the daytime side of her at least, she couldn't control her dreams could she. Once at the castle, she pushed the door open and bid him goodbye briefly before running quickly to her room.

She sat down at her dressing table and disentangled the feathered top hat from her hair, pulling the clips out and allowing it to be free on her shoulders; then she removed her cape and draped it over the back of her chair. Following this she was about to undo the laces on her corset when there was a knock at the door. She dropped her hands and called out "Yes?"

"It's me."

Her eyes went wide as she looked in the mirror, he had come to her room. "Come in." She stated, moving towards the door.

"Hi, can I talk to you?" Robin asked coming in, his eyes sweeping across her figure.

She cleared her throat and nodded "Yes." She wandered to sit on the edge of her four poster bed. The dynamic between them was different now, a good different, but different non the less.

"I'm going crazy." He laughed.

"How so?" She asked, thinking if he felt the same as she did then it was with want.

"I really want to kiss you right now."

"Go ahead then, I won't stop you."

He grinned at her and kissed her with force, she immediately granted him access to her mouth. Her tongue found his as they brushed together, she moaned into his mouth as she shuffled closer to him, her hands on his strong arms. From here she moved to straddle his lap, breaking the kiss she laid her forehead against his. "Robin." She smiled, her lip coming between her teeth.

"Regina. Oh am I allowed to call you that?"

"Yes." She chuckled "sorry about earlier."

"Oh my goodness, did the Evil Queen just apologise?" He questioned with a smirk, his hands on her hips.

She narrowed her eyes at him "Evil Queen? Is that who I am to you?" She asked.

"No, I don't think that is who you are anymore." He shook his head. "I think you are stunning, you might be bold and audacious, but you're certainly not evil."

"Oh I don't know." She rose her eyebrows "Because I'm feeling rather evil right now."

"Oh how so?"

"Mmm, do you want me to show you?" She asked, closing the distance between them and taking his bottom lip between her teeth.

"Yes." He breathed.

"Okay then." Slowly she pushed him back onto the bed, hopping off his lap she blocked out the voice in her head telling her that she shouldn't let anyone in, that she should be alone, that she shouldn't allow room in her heart for anyone other than Henry. She was going to have Robin, whether that stupid nagging liked it or not. Slowly she began to unlace the corset as he laid on the bed, his eyes wide as he watched her actions. She knew this was a torturous pace for him, she could tell that he was hard, she couldn't miss it.

"Regina." He breathed, making to sit up.

"Um did I say you could get up?"

"No."

"Right then, shall we play a little game?" She was feeling bold, extremely so, she stopped with the laces, leaving little to the imagination. "Answer a question wrong and you have to remove a piece of clothing, answer a question right and I do."

"I think I like the sound of this game." He nodded.

"Alright then thief." She wandered over to the door and bolted it shut, before making her way back to him on the bed, crawling so that she faced him. She was trying to think of some hard questions, she wanted to see him stripped before her. "First question." She didn't quite know the answer to this one, but if the answer pleased her, she would gladly remove an article of clothing for him. "How many times have you dreamt about me? About touching me? About fucking me?"

He rose his eyebrows "Ever since I met you your majesty, every night, and every night we would be doing it somewhere new."

"How?"

"Uh, I don't think so, that's a separate question."

She sighed and shook her head. "Correct answer." She started to undo one of her tall leather boots.

"You're kidding me right?" He huffed in frustration.

She laughed "It's the way the game works. Second question, how would we do it?"

He shook his head "Any way you want your majesty."

"In your dream outlaw, how would we?"

"You were in charge most of the time, it's that fiery nature. In one of the dreams, we were in the council room, on the table. In another, the stables, here in this bed, in a lake I know not far from here."

"Okay, we'll have to try those out, if you pass this round." She removed the other boot and flung it across the room. "This question is to see if you have been listening, what job did I have in Storybrooke?" She hoped he was going to get this wrong, he had considerably less clothes on than her and was barefoot, so it wouldn't take as long to rid him off his garments.

"Um, I have no idea."

"Oh dear then, shirt off outlaw." He removed his shirt and flung it next to her boots. Her eyes grew wide as she drank in the image before her, he was perfectly toned, his skin tanned.

"Does your majesty approve?" He asked chuckling.

"So far."

"So what was your job?"

"Hum?"

"In Storybrooke, what was your job?"

"Oh, I was the mayor."

"I see, a power position."

"Yes. Next question, how many correct answers will you have to get until you can see me, fully naked?"

"Three?" He guessed.

"Correct, ooh what first." She contemplated, looking down at her remaining clothing. "Do you think I should let you choose?"

"Yes."

"Wrong answer. Now we both have to take one off." She smirked, the quicker the better, she could already feel the pooling of wetness, and aching need for him.

She undid the rest of the laces to the corset and it dropped off, revealing her breast to him. She chuckled as he nearly stopped breathing upon seeing her. "See something you like thief?" She questioned, copying his earlier sentiments.

"Definitely." He nodded, slipping out of his pants.

Regina could see his ever growing erection through his one remaining piece of clothing and felt herself blushing somewhat, it probably had something to do with sitting opposite him, having nothing covering her top half. "Hmm." She was struggling to come up with another question when he broke through her thoughts.

"Was that correct?"

"What?"

"That answer."

"Oh, yes, I suppose so." She smirked, well that was easy. Slowly she began to pull down the leather pants, really regretting this wardrobe choice, there was a clouds of purple fog and the pants were gone, leaving her sitting opposite him in only her panties.

"Shit." He shuddered, adjusting his position somewhat.

She had to bite back the temptation of asking him if he was struggling, because she knew the answer and he knew she did too, she wanted him to lose all his clothes first and not the other way around. "Okay, how many men before you have I taken?" She smirked, there was no way he could answer this question correctly, because everyone guessed higher than the actual number, everyone always saw her as the woman who devoured men.

"I think, you want people to think you have had many, but actually you haven't."

Her face dropped, how did he know that?

"I'm going to say, four."

She shook her head. "Wrong answer I'm afraid." It was close, very close, three had been the answer she had been looking for.

He whipped off his underwear before sitting back down. "I don't think I was far off though was I? In fact I'm guessing less than four."

"Why?" She furrowed her eyebrows.

"I just get that feeling." He ran his right hand over her arm and she looked down at his wrist, that was when she saw it, it was there as clear as day, imprinted on his arm, a lion crest.

Her breath hitched as she looked at him wide eyed.

"Regina?"

"Final question." She stated, her voice shaky. "Do you have a lion tattoo on your right arm?"

"Yes." He nodded.

She gasped and moved away slightly "Oh my god."

"Regina, what's wrong?"

"It's you." She whispered.

"What's me?"

"You, you, you're, you're the man with the lion tattoo."

"I have no idea what you are talking about." He frowned, looking down at his arm and the tattoo that he'd had forever.

"Robin." She couldn't tell him, it wasn't fair to tell him, not now, she would tell him later. This explained everything, everything she had felt towards him, how right it had felt the two of them touching and kissing one another. "Kiss me." She stated.

"Are you alright?"

"Kiss me now." She jumped at him, slamming her lips against his as their naked chests brushed against each other. She used her magic to make her remaining piece of clothing disappear, she straddled him, feeling him pressed against her, eliciting moans from the both of them. "Take me Robin."

"Are you sure?"

"Are you kidding me?" She scoffed, moving off him to lay on the bed. "Robin." She stated impatiently, she needed to know, needed to know what it felt like to make love with your soulmate, she needed him. She wasn't going to run from him this time, she had nothing to lose, nothing left, she was going to have him.

"Okay then your majesty." He moved to hover over her, she found his lips again as his hand travelled down, finding her clit where he began to rub circles, which sent delicious tingling sensations through her.

She moaned as he moved his mouth to her neck, where he began to suck on her pulse point, her hands ran across his back lightly, a feathery touch that had him shivering. Slowly he brought his other hand down to caress the side of her breast as tenderly as she was his back, which caused her to arch into him. Running his hands over her nipples, he moved lower, edging his way closer to her core, his mouth moving down to replace the hand that had been on her breast. "Robin." She sighed contentedly, her eyes flickering shut as he entered her with one finger, which was swiftly followed by a second.

Her hands were in his hair as he continued to pump in and out of her with his fingers, she felt close, but this wasn't the way she wanted to reach her peak, not this time, she wanted him. "Robin." She moaned, having to bite her lip, she pulled his hair slightly so that he would look up at her. "Please, I want you…" she had to stop as he hit a particular spot "I want us to…"

Seriously, wasn't he getting the message? He continued his ministrations. "Robin stop." Immediately he complied with her instructions.

"Are you…"

"Please, I want you here with me." She smiled shyly, that was definitely not her usual self, she felt young and naïve, it was strange how Robin could make her feel that way.

Understanding her meaning, he moved up to find her lips again, kissing her deeply, slowly, savouring her. Then he entered her, carefully as though he thought that she might break. She had tears in her eyes, she couldn't let him see that, couldn't let him see how he was effecting her, but she knew he had, he was smiling down at her, he kissed her temple. He began to move inside her, slowly at first, but they soon found a pace that had them both crying out in pleasure,

On one particular thrust, Regina screamed his name so loud she wouldn't have been surprised if they had alerted the whole castle, not that she cared, not now, not now that she knew he was the man she was destined to be with. If anything, she wanted everyone in the castle to know what spine tingling pleasure he was giving her. She bit her lip as his hand came in between them and brushed against her clit. She felt herself began to contract around him, oh god, this was the most powerful thing she had ever felt, even more so than the once she had done it with Daniel, she was completely overwhelmed.

Her nails dug into his back, she knew that they would probably leave terrible marks, but she had to hold onto him. Stars exploded behind her eyelids as her orgasm hit her, crashed down and consumed her, causing her whole body to move up of the bed. He was right there with her, exactly as she had wanted him to be and their actions seemed to be affecting him just as much. After a few more strokes, he came too, collapsing partially on her, spotting lazy kisses on her neck.

They both tried to regulate their breathing as Regina lazily ran her fingers through his hair. After a few minutes she opened her eyes, watching him "Wow." She whispered.

"Mmm." He nodded against her neck, rolling off her and to the side. "You okay?"

"Yes, that was…"

"Perfect?"

"Yes." She smiled. Until now, she hadn't noticed that night had descended and the room was dark, flicking her wrist she lit several candles dotted around the room, followed by the large fire place. "Robin, I think we missed dinner."

"Me too." He chuckled, kissing her shoulder.

"Did you tell anyone you were back?" She asked.

"No, did you?"

"No." She sat up a little "Oh no, you don't think."

He grinned "They probably called up a search party."

"Shit." She let out a girlish giggle. "Good luck with that."

"Should I go check?" Robin asked.

"Probably." She nodded.

"Okay." He kissed her lips again before standing up to claim his clothes.

She watched him and let out a loud gasp "Robin!"

"What?"

"I'm sorry." She shook her head, moving to the edge of the bed, still naked as she moved him so his back was facing her, carefully she ran her fingers over the crescent shaped puncture wounds, which were slightly oozing with blood. "I marked you." She rose her eyebrows.

He laughed "Thank you your majesty, leaving me with a souvenir?"

"I can heal them." She stated about to wave her hand when he caught her wrist.

"Don't you dare, make them stop bleeding, but I want to keep them."

"What why?"

"I want you to see them every time we make love and for you to remember our first time together and how it was what made me realise, I love you."

She bit her lip and shook her head "Love?" She smiled. So he loved her, it was expected considering they were soulmates, but it still shocked her to the core hearing him say it.

"I get it, if you're not ready to say it back yet it's fine, there's time…"

"I love you too." She burst, looking down after she said it, feeling a slight blush come upon her face.

He grinned and kissed her "Good, because I'd hate to be the only one. I guess I better go make sure that they aren't out looking for us."

"Hang on, I'm coming." She flicked her wrist and they were both dressed, her long hair in a plait down one side.

After finding that they had indeed sent out a search party, Regina and Robin found themselves re-entering the woods to search for the search party, she went to take a right and he shook his head. "It's this way your majesty." He chuckled.

She smiled, she had found her soulmate and realised that she would follow him any which way he went.
