Her peace was suddenly broken when she was spooked hearing another voice close by
'Did you know the Honey-crisp tree is the most vigorous and hardy of all apple trees?'
Chapter three
Emma's eyes bulged out their sockets as the piece of apple in her mouth lodged in the back of her throat after she was spooked and startled hearing someone's voice out of nowhere. Gasping for air and bright red in the face, Emma felt herself move before someone hit her hard on the centre of her back which dislodged the apple from the back of the throat.
She sighed out in relief at being able to breath again as she sat forward taking in large gulps of air while she felt someone rubbing circles on her back
'I'm so sorry I startled you, it wasn't my intention. Are you OK?' A female voice said in remorse
Emma nodded her head not yet trusting her voice. She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and looked around to find the source of the voice that startled her
'I'm fine. What the hell were you thinking just sneaking up on me like that?' Emma said, anger replacing her embarrassment
'Well, Dear, you are the one trespassing on private property'
Emma raised an eyebrow and opened her mouth to reply but closed it as she finally took in the woman before her. The woman was slightly older than she was but she was breathtakingly beautiful. Her long wavy brown hair looked like silk in the moonlight that cascaded down her back and framed her face, her brown eyes sparkled with mischief and danger and her olive completion was flawless, Emma ran her eyes over the brunettes perfect body, curves in all the right places
The other woman smirked to herself watching the silent blonde woman rake her eyes over her body, after a few minutes she cleared her throat bringing the other woman out of her thoughts
'Sorry...I...I didn't realise it was private property' Emma explained blushing slightly
'Why are you alone in the middle of the night?' The brunette asked intrigued by the strange blonde
'Why are you alone in the middle of the night?' Emma sent her question back at her
The brunette chuckled 'Fair point, but this is my property you're trespassing on Miss...'
'Swan, Emma Swan' Emma breathed out as her eyes lowered to the woman's full ruby red lips that were the same colour as the apple she was recently devouring. Full, plump and looked sinfully delicious. She swallowed the saliva that had pooled in the back of her throat as she watched a tongue run along the bottom lip making it glisten with moisture. She witnessed a small smirk play on the corner of the lips that had her hypnotised, the movement made her quickly look away. She could feel heat spread along her cheeks in embarrassment at being caught
'It's a pleasure to meet you Emma, I'm Regina' Regina said with a hint of amusement in her tone at witnessing the blondes embarrassment
Emma meet her eyes again and smiled 'Its a pleasure to meet you too, Regina'
Regina smiled and looked around 'So why are you alone in the middle of the night, trespassing on private property?' Regina asked with a raised eyebrow in question
'I was taking a walk and I came across this orchid. I was just taking a rest. Sorry for trespassing, your apples are the best I've ever tasted' Emma said hoping the compliment will help her
'Good to know, Dear' Regina said chuckling 'Surely your family will be wondering were you are, Emma'
'No family. No one to wonder were I am' Emma answered with a shrug as she looked away
Regina watched her for a few seconds 'A young lady shouldn't be out alone without an escort at this time of night. There are many dangers in this world, Emma'
'How do you know I'm not dangerous?' Emma said adding a wink
Regina chuckled 'I can't decide if your incredibly brave or just plaIn stupid' Regina said wondering out loud
'Maybe I'm a combination of both' Emma said smirking 'If you're so worried about my safety, why don't you invite me back to your place and keep me safe?' Emma blurted out without thinking, but the realisation of what she just said made her cheeks redden in embarrassment
Regina smirked 'What makes you think you would be safe with me?'
Emma watched as Regina walked slowly towards her, raking her eyes over her frame that caused a shiver to travel up her spine. Emma opened her mouth to reply but no words came as her green eyes met dark pools that flashed with mischief and amusement. Emma's eyes lowered to those sinful lips again that were parted in a devilish smile. Emma's eyes burrowed when she saw two long sharp fangs among perfect white teeth
'What are you?' Emma asked in a whisper of awe
'If I tell you that, I'd have to kill you' Regina whispered
Emma looked back up to meet her eyes 'Why do I actually believe that'
'Why aren't you afraid of me?' Regina asked more in wondering
'What makes you think I'm not afraid of you?' Emma quizzed
'Your dilated pupils, shortness of breath and raising heartbeat suggests more arousal than fear' Regina said nonchalantly
Emma's eyes widened as her cheeks flushed 'Maybe it's a combination of both. I guess I am just an idiot' Emma replied
'It seems so, my dear' Regina breathed out as she took a few slow steps forward closer to Emma, who backed up until her back hit the tree truck behind her. Regina ran a finger softly along Emma's chin as she closed the gap between them causing Emma to gasp slightly
'Mmm.. You're lucky you fascinate me so' Regina breathed into her ear, which caused Emma to shiver
'Why does that make me lucky?'
'If you didn't, you would be dead by now' Regina replied as she brushed her mouth along Emma's exposed neck. Emma closed her eyes and clenched her fists as she was sure she felt sharp teeth against her neck
'OK now I'm just afraid of you' Emma whispered as her body tensed
'As you should be' Regina replied in a low voice
'You know, if you do plan on killing me, just please get on with it because it's getting cold and I don't like playing games' Emma said as she placed her hands on Regina's shoulders and attempted to push her away but the brunette didn't budge
Regina looked down at the blondes hands on her shoulders and raised an eyebrow in question 'What are you doing?' She asked
'Trying to.. How strong are you?' Emma quizzed while she tried to push Regina away again
'Its one of the perks' Regina said shrugging her shoulders
'Perks? To what? Being a psychopath?' Emma said losing her patience
Regina's eyes flashed dangerously, she reached out and wrapped a hand around the blondes throat and lifted her off her ground as she flashed her fangs with a murderous expression painted on her usually angelic face
'You may want to hold your tongue!' Regina spat out with Venom
Emma glared down at her with wide eyes as she gasped for air for the second time that night while she kicked her legs out frantically. Regina simply held her in place and as she watched a tear leak from the blondes eyes and travel slowly down red cheeks
'Do you fear death, Emma?' Regina asked calmly
Emma opened her eyes and gasped out 'No'
'Such a waste' Regina breathed into her ear as she sank her fangs into her neck and moaned as blood filled her mouth
Emma slammed her eyes shut as she felt the fangs pierce her flesh and the brunette drank her blood. The word vampire played in her mind and she inwardly laughed that this is how she was to die, at the hands of a creature she heard of and read about in stories when she was a child. She looked up into the sky and kept her eyes on the moon as she felt herself grow weaker.
After a few minutes Regina released her hold on the blonde and dropped her letting her fall in a heap on her ground. Emma laid still feeling weightless
'How about now? Do you fear death now, Emma?' Regina asked as she knelt before the blonde, holding her chin so they could look at each other
Emma's eyes rolled in their sockets 'No' She breathed out as her eyes closed and the darkness took her.
