********Chapter 10*******

The beast stood at least 8 feet tall, with a head of a lion, goat and a serpent for a tail. It let out a massive roar as the crowd cheered yelling out for the chimera. Emma turned and looked up at Regina one last time as she steeled herself for the battle for her life. The crowd became a dull roar to her ears as she felt her adrenaline pump through her veins. Soon all she could hear was her breathing echoing inside her helmet, the iron was stifling around her head. The beast charged towards the earth shook with each step as the duo stood still waiting for their moment to arrive.

Emma took a deep breath as the two headed beast neared, at the last second she dodged to the side rolling under his massive feet as the beast was in mid air. She felt the chain tug at her wrist reminding she was connected to another person. She swiped her sword blindly upwards, connecting with the head of the snake as he lunged at her trying to sink his massive fangs into her. The beast growled at her as Mulan took the opportunity to take a large swipe at the beast. As the beast turned, Mulan and Emma stood side-by-side working as one as they blocked each blow the beast gave.

Regina watched from above she knew one of the women below was the slave everyone had talked about. The one who bested all of her men including her General. She hoped the girl survived so they could at last meet. Suddenly the queen felt a familiar shiver roll down her spine. Her power swelled up inside of her waiting to be released. Emma. She was here, somewhere near. She could feel her. The gold ring on her finger began to glow slightly as she felt her powers flexed inside of her. Regina began to search the crowd for the familiar golden locks, but was unsuccessful in locating her. She turned to her left where Maleficent sat. The blonde witch's eyes were locked on one of the slaves. She turned at watch the on going battle as she felt her powers grow inside her.

Emma could feel the familiar feeling that always came in battle; she turned her body squaring herself so she could use the momentum of the beast against itself. At the last moment he turned knocking the blonde to the ground. As her head hit the floor she cursed the damn helmet kept getting in her way. Without thinking she stood ripping of the iron that impaired her vision that also kept her hidden from the Queen gaze. Mulan gasped as she watched Emma charge the beast; being that they were chained to the wrist she prayed Emma had a plan as she ran with her.

Maleficent heard the gasp that escaped Regina's lips as soon as the helmet was thrown away. She turned to see the look of the dark woman's face. Regina shocked couldn't even be masked if she tried as she saw her beloved locked in the area with a chimera. What had she done? As she went to stand Maleficent stopped her shaking her head no. She had to stop this! Maleficent used her magic to keep the Queen seated firmly in her chair. They both watched as the blonde's partner was tossed like a rag doll across the arena. The crowd loud cheers were deafening to her as she watched to battle go on.

Emma felt the power before she saw it, she had only felt this once before after the bond was in place with Regina. Suddenly the beast swiped at her with one of its massive paws. Sparks flew off her armor as she body flew back colliding with the blood soaked earth. Above her Regina tried to stand again her eyes locked on the blonde below as she tried to fight Maleficent's magic. She nearly broke through when she felt Ursula's magic combine with the blonde witch's slamming her back in her seat. Regina tried to speak but no words would form as she was held down against her will. She was forced to watch as her beloved was thrown around the area by the beast she put in there with her.

As Emma stood her palm began to glow a golden light that soon engulfed her sword with one last lunge and swipe she beheaded the lion's head that was about to clamped his jaws around her. Mulan took out the rest of the beast with a quick jab to the heart. Blood rained over them as the massive beast fell to the floor with a loud thud. The crowd roared as they cheered away. Emma looked to the balcony where the Queen was seated.

They locked eyes as she felt the guards pull her away. After so many years no matter what Emma had done she never could rid herself the pesky feelings she held for the Queen she still loved her as much as she had when they first met. Regina disappeared from her view as she was dragged behind iron gates that slammed shut. Everything became a blur as they were rushed into a healer's tent. Emma had not even noticed the blood flowing over her body. Claw marks marred her armor, blood and sweat poured down her body like a tiny rivers as she was stripped and cleaned.

"Emma? Are you okay?" Mulan asked as she laid next to her cot.

"What? Oh...yes I am fine."

"Are you sure? I have never seen you like that in battle before."

"Yes Mulan I am fine, I don't know what happen really it is all a blur."

"You took some heavy hits to the head. Why did you take your helmet off?"

"I couldn't see! The damn thing kept getting in my way. I wasn't thinking, and now she knows I'm here." she said grimly

"Who?"

"The Queen..."

"Of course she knows you're here Emma...She brought you here."

"No, she didn't...Fate did."

"Emma, you are not making any sense! Are you sure you're okay?"

"Yes I am fine, you remember when I told you there was someone before Red?"

"Yes, but what does the Queen have to do with it?"

"She was the person before Red. She is Henry's Mother. She is...was...is my...wife"

"What? Emma, no that can't be."

"Yes, it can...Regina is my wife, we are soul bonded by magic."

"Emma...I don't know what to say..."

"There is nothing to say my friend...nothing at all"

*******FlashBack*******

Emma waited nervously as she stood by the river as she waited for Regina to show up. The velvet pouch in her pocket held the most precious ring she had ever felt in her whole life. Today was the day she would ask Regina to marry her, and she prayed to the gods she would say yes. She pulled out the pouch as she fingered the band. The light sparkled off the gold ring as she pulled it out. She hoped Regina liked it. It was a light golden color with a diamond stone embedded into the band. She had her Uncle Grumpy make it for her. He worked day and night with the promise to meet the wonderful woman who would wear the band he made.

Emma quickly put away the pouch as she heard the thunder of hoofs signaling the arrival of her beloved. Regina raced down the path as soon as she saw Emma standing next to her horse Thor. The brunette jumped off her horse and into Emma's awaiting arms. She squealed as Emma twirled them in circles. They finally came to a stop as Emma cupped the brunette's cheeks pulling in for a passionate kiss.

Regina moaned into Emma's mouth as she parted her lips inviting the blonde's tongue. Emma eagerly accepted as licked the top of her mouth as she explored. The blonde moaned as she felt Regina's hand sneak down to cup her ass bringing them closer together. They slowly broke the kiss panted heavily.

"I missed you, my love" Emma said as she stared into deep honey brown eyes.

"I missed you too, you were gone for far too long."

"I was only gone a week, my love." she said with a small laugh as she wrapped her arms around the curvy woman.

"Yes but it was a week too long, I was worried something happen to you. That you wouldn't make it back."

"I'm here my love. Safe and sound." she whispered against the woman lips as she pulled them together for another kiss.

Regina wrapped her arms around the other woman's neck as the kiss deepens. She knew she could spend the rest of her life kissing this woman and never tire of it. Emma moaned as the brunette sucked lightly on her tongue. The blonde's body thrummed with arousal as she pulled the woman as close as she could get her. They fit together perfectly as if they were two pieces to the perfect puzzle of happiness. They broke the kiss as soon as air became a necessity, panting heavily against each other lips.

Emma knew this was her moment. She gently broke their embrace as she kneeled down on one knee in front of Regina. The brunette gasped as soon as she was the blonde fumble with her pocket pulling out a black velvet pouch that contained a simple golden ring. She covered her mouth with her hands as she felt her eyes began to water.

The blonde cleared her throat before speaking. "Regina Mills, you are the most amazing woman I have ever met in my life. You are strong, caring and have an amazing heart. I've seen you care for wounded animals and children alike. These last few months have been the best of my entire life. Would you make me the happiest woman in the entire realm by becoming my wife?" Emma bit her lip as she held the ring out to Regina she held her breath while she waited for her answer.

"Emma...YES! A million times YES!" Regina broke out with a stunning smile as she held her hand out for the blonde to place the ring on her finger.

Emma's hands trembled as she placed the ring on the woman's tanned hand as she stood up to kiss her. "I'm so happy Regina and i can't wait to get married to you!"

"Then lets not wait my love, tonight is the full moon, we can get married now just me and you! There's a spell that will bind us for life. Would you want that?" she asked as tears of joy rolled down her eyes.

"Yes my love yes!"

"Then meet me across the river in an hour, go wash up you smell like Thor! While I will get everything ready for us." she laughed as she playfully pushed Emma towards her horse.

"I can't smell that bad!" Emma said with a small pout.

"You do my love! Wash up while I gather everything we need okay. I love you!"

"I love you Regina, with everything I am," she vowed as she turned to gather her items.

With that Regina disappeared in a puff of purple smoke. She stood in awe as the smoke dissipated she was in love with the most amazing woman in the whole realm. The hour couldn't be over soon enough. Emma gathered her items and began to clean herself, looking up to the sun to track her time as she counted down the minutes till she saw her beloved again.

Regina appeared back at the river as she picked the perfect area to see the moon. She created a small cabin near the river positioning it where the moonlight would shine in their bedroom windows. She made small touches here and there cleaning the area of dead leaves, while creating more flowers to give the area a better look. She picked a willow tree close to the river as the place where they would say their vows to each other. She made an arch out of the soft willow branches, as she weaved white flowers and ivies. She stood back to admire her work, smiling at the beauty. Using her magic she changed herself into a white dress, with accents of gold and silver worked into it. Her hair was put into an updo, knowing Emma loved when she wore her hair up. Her makeup was light just enough to dust her face.

A throat cleared behind her signaling the blonde's arrival. She turned to see Emma standing in her best clothes. Black leather pants so tight she could have painting them on herself. Her breath caught in her throat as her eyes travel up the blonde sculpted body, she wore a deep red vest with sparkles of gold dusted into the material that covered a bright white shirt cuffed at the elbows. She was a sight to see. Emma's golden locks put back with a simple braid as her face was dusted with light makeup she had no clue she blonde even owned.

"Do you like?" the blonde asks, suddenly unsure of herself.

"Yes you look beautiful, my love." Regina said with a shy smile.

"You look amazing, I had no clue you could get any more beautiful than you already are, but you are my love. You are stunning" Emma racked her eyes over the brunette's womanly body as she felt her hunger grow for the other woman.

Regina blushed under the gaze of the woman she loved, Emma always made her feel things long forgotten, like loved for one of many. She knew she would never get used to feeling this way. "Come" she said as she held out her hand for the other woman. Emma took her hand as the sun began to set behind them. They quickly got lost in each other's eyes. They moved to face each other as Emma took in her surrounding.

"This is beautiful darling"

"Thank you, my love. Will you stay with me tonight?" She asked as she pointed to the cabin.

"Yes, of course"

"Good" she smiled as she took Emma's hands in her own.

"Emma, my whole life has been a battle. Everything I have ever loved was ripped away before I could stop it. I once thought that I had found my one true love...I know now that wasn't the case. You are the light that shines in my dark world. You have made me whole when I was a shell of a woman. I love you and vow to stand by you no matter what comes our way in sickness or health. Emma I love you."

Unknown to either of the woman bright blue orbs began to circle them. The forest became alive with sounds, as their union was witness by the spirits of the forest. Owls began to hoot, crickets began to chirp, in the distance wolves howled as the moon began to rise. Regina began to release her magic into Emma's hands. The blonde took in a deep breath as she felt Regina's powers flow into her. Soon their hands began to glow a bright golden light. Regina's breath caught in her throat as she felt Emma's hidden magic awaken. It was the purest magic she ever felt in her whole life, soon she felt Emma's soul seep into her, each woman giving a bit of themselves to each other. Emma felt a shudder go through her body as their bond began to form.

"Regina, I have never met anyone like you before. You balance me like no other person could. I have lost much in my life but have never felt anything like I have when I hold you in my arms. Regina you are the Queen of my heart and I want to give you what is yours. My heart. Soul. And body. I love you and I know you are my true love. I vow to stand by your side no matter what, until the day I die."

As each word poured out of Emma's mouth each woman felt the promise that was given. The process was nearly completed as the moonlight shined over them in a blue hue. Both women lifted a few inches off themselves.

"Kiss me Emma and the bond will be complete. I will be yours forever." She said in a hushed whisper.

"Then you will be mine as much as I am yours" Emma whispered back.

Emma pulled the older woman toward her as their lips crashed together; thunder crashed in the background a sign from the ancient ones that they approved. The bond was complete as two souls became one. Regina moaned into Emma's mouth as they deepened the kiss slowly gliding back down to the dampen earth. They explored each other mouths as they pulled each other closer. Finally breaking for air they parted resting their foreheads against each other as their breath mingled.

Regina pulled away first pulling Emma behind her as she walked them to the cottage she made for them. Emma quickly picked up the older woman grinning as Regina squealed out of surprised. Regina grinned with a flick of her wrist she opened the door as Emma carried her bridal style across the threshold. Emma kicked the door shut as she put the brunette down. Looking around a small gasp escaped her lips as took in the sight before her. Regina had thought of everything from the fireplace to the furniture that littered the room. A small hallway lead to the back of the cottage where she assumed their bed would be.

"Do you like it?" Regina asked shyly as she peered up at Emma awe stricken face.

"Yes, it perfect, just like you." she said with a smile.

Regina beamed at the other woman as she took her hands in her own leading her to the bedroom. She opened the door pulling the girl behind her as she turned to face her.

"We can wait if you're still not ready my love." she said in the sweetest voice Emma had ever heard.

"No, I'm ready my love" Emma said with a smile as she took a step towards her wife.

Emma began to kiss her wife's neck gently sucking on the tanned flesh as the older woman cupped her head pulling her closer.

"Emmmaa!"

"Hmmm"

"I love you"

Emma pulled back for a moment to peer into dark eyes, "I love you" she said before pulling the woman back for another kiss.

They moaned into each other's mouth as Regina reached up undoing the leather tie that held Emma's golden locks back in a braid. Soon the blonde's hair was free, as Regina weaved her fingers into the soft straw colored hair as she pulled her closer. The younger woman opened her mouth licking the other woman's bottom lip begging for entrance to the sweet wet heat of her mouth. Regina parted her lips as she caressed Emma's tongue with her own licking the muscle erotically. The kiss deepens as Regina's free hand sneaked down undoing each button of the blonde's red vest slowly until it was fully open. She released the blonde's hair as she pushed the material over the younger woman's shoulders letting the item fall off and onto the floor with a loud thud.

They broke apart for breath as they leaned against each other. "Regina..." Emma moaned, "Get rid of these clothes please"

The dark woman smirks "As you wish my love," with a snap of her fingers they both stood bear as the day they were born.

Both women panted heavily as they took in the bear sight for the first time ever. Emma pulled the darker woman towards the bed as her head began to feel light as her arousal over took her body. Every muscle was in tuned with the woman before her as she laid the woman down and crawled over her. They kissed again slowly as a sigh escaped their throats as their skin touched for the first time without any barriers. Emma could feel the wetness seep down her thighs as she explored the body under her. Suddenly, Regina flipped them so she was on top. She grinned down at the blonde under her as she leaned down for a kiss. Regina felt her magic swell inside her begging to be released.

"Emma you are so beautiful," she said sincerely as they parted.

The brunette felt a strange sensation between her legs as she grounded her hips down on the other woman. Her cilt began to throb as it swelled with blood and magic. Emma felt something hard touch her. They both broke apart in confusion as they looked down to see Regina sporting a hard on for the blonde woman.

"Emma I don't..."

"Is that what I think that is?" Emma asked as confusion laced her voice.

"Yes, But that's never happen before."

Emma's eyes darken with arousal as Regina's fumbling made her rub herself on Emma's clit by accident as she tried to move away. Emma caught her before she could move any farther away.

"Don't, it's magic, our magic...Now take me as a man would. Claim me. Make me yours in every way possible." she said huskily as her arousal was evident in her voice.

"Are you sure?"

"Yess!" Emma moaned out as she arched her back lifting her hips into the other woman.

Regina nodded as she repositioned herself in between in blonde's legs biting her lip to fight off the moan that threaten to come out as Emma's soaked entrance grazed her throbbing member. She took the base in her hand as she guided herself slowly into the woman's hot wet core. Emma sucked in a sharp breath as she winced slightly in pain. Regina moaned loudly as she felt herself engulfed by the velvety walls of her wife.

"Are you okay?" Regina asked with concern.

"Yes, oh... Regina take me, Fuck Me!" she gasped out as her hips began to thrust out.

"Oh Emma, you feel so good...so wet…so soft…"

Regina began to start up a rhythm as she pushed herself fully into her wife. She had never felt anything like this before. Emma's wet heat pulsed around her member as she thrusted into her fully. She had no clue what she was doing, but move her hips on instinct letting her body guide her as the moonlight shined into the room covering their body in a blue hue. Unseen to either woman a silver mist began to creep into the room engulfing both women in the sparkly dust.

"Gods...Regina you feel so good inside of me. Harder!"

"Emma..." Regina grunted out as she thrusted herself more forcefully than she meant to, sending the blonde over the edge unexpectedly. The blonde screamed out Regina's name as her walls clenched the hot member inside of her. Regina followed behind her as she felt the Blonde's walls pull her in.

"Emma!" she screamed out as she felt her self let go. As she came her magical member decreased in size returning to its original size as her clit twitched sending shivers up and down her body as she collapsed onto of the blonde panting as they clutched each other not daring to let go.

"That was..." Emma started

"Yes it was"

"I love you Regina"

"I love you my wife." Regina said with a smile as she pulled the blonde in for a kiss.

The blonde flipped them over as she began to pepper kisses down the tanned neck of her wife. Regina the noticed the mist that had seemed into the room as she opened her eyes and gasped at the site. She pulled the blonde up for a kiss.

"The bond is sealed my love. You are mine and I am yours forever" She said as they broke apart. Closing her eyes she saw the bright green eyes of her lover now they would never be apart no matter how far they were from each other.

They spent the rest of the night making love till the sun shined into the windows. When they finally fell asleep in each other's arms from exhaustion.

*******End Flashback******

Emma was cuffed and taken out of the healer's tent. She was escorted through the great stone hallways of the castle by two armed guards. She sized up the soldiers estimating her chances in taking them out and making a run for it, but she knew Regina would just pursue her wherever she went and with her magic she wouldn't make it far at all. She sighed as she mentally prepared herself for the onslaught that she was about to get. The doors open as the brunette's back came into view.

"Your Majesty the slave as you requested." one guard said as she was shoved forward.

"Thank you Claude, that will be all for now."

"But you Majesty"

"Go!" she commanded coolly still facing the window.

Both guards scampered out the door for fear of her wrath. They knew she could protect herself. Regina kept her back to the blonde she could hear the jingle of the iron chains wrapped around the wrists of her beloved.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling she began to speak. "I searched the whole realm for you" she said in a cold calm voice.

"I know."

"You know? YOU KNOW!" Regina turned in a flash as lightning flashed in her eyes. "That is all you can say to me! You know?"

"Yes" Emma replied in an even voice as she felt her heart skip a beat at the look of fury in her wife's eyes.

"Then that makes everything even better doesn't it?" The dark woman said as she took a step closer to the blonde.

Emma stood still; her face did not betray the world wind of emotions crashing through her mind at the time.

"Is that all you can say to me?" Regina crossed her arms across her ample breasts as she stared down her once lover.

"What do you want from me Regina or should I say Your Majesty?" Emma spat out still keeping her face devoid of any emotions.

She saw the look of hurt cross the brunette's eyes before her mask could go back up. "You can call me whatever you wish dear. I'm sure you would prefer the Evil Queen."

Emma could feel her rage surface as Regina spoke to her. She felt so confused her mind was racing. On one hand this was the woman she loved on the other this was the woman who destroyed her life.

"What do you want from me?" she repeated.

"How about an explanation as to why you left? All the promises you made broken in one night!" She took a deep breath trying to calm her self. "You vowed to stand by me no matter WHAT!" she yelled as her rage took the better of her.

"THAT WAS BEFORE I FOUND OUT YOU WERE A MURDERING BITCH!" Emma yelled back finally losing control.

"I TRIED TO TELL YOU! Everyday...I tried...but you wouldn't listen...telling me it didn't matter about my past Emma...you said you didn't care..." All the fight left her voice as she spoke her heartbreak coming back at full force.

"I...I don't...I didn't know that was your secret...the way I found out...Then that man...kissing you...I couldn't take it...so I ran..." Emma let out a sigh as she looked at the woman she loved broken knowing it was her fault this strong woman was so broken. She did this.

"What man...You were there," Regina said as the pieces finally clicked into place. When Graham had kissed her all those years back. When he had called her his Queen. Emma had been there had seen that. "I pushed him away..." was all she could say.

"I didn't stay long enough to see that..." Emma felt defeated what could she say to this woman before. Could she tell her the truth? But what was the truth? Maleficent said her mother was alive.

"I'm sorry Emma" Regina's eyes watered as she looked at her wife.

"So am I Regina."

Regina took a baby step forward as she looked into Emma's bright green eyes. Could it be as easy as saying sorry?

"Regina, I shouldn't have left. I know that now." Emma took a step closer to her wife.

"You left because you found out i was the Evil Queen?" Regina asked as she took another baby step forward. Her body would be ever drawn to the blonde and even with all this time nothing had changed that.

"Yes and No...My mother...your army...killed her." Emma said with an unsteady breath. Regina could hear the emotion in her voice as she spoke.

"Oh Emma" she hand covered her mouth and tears threaten to fall.

"When I found out who you were and then I saw that...I thought it was all a lie."

"No Emma it wasn't a lie." Regina felt her stomach turn as she heard the blonde's words. They echoed in her head. "I loved...love you"

"Regina..." Emma's breath hitched in her throat as she took one more step forward bring them so close they were almost touching.

"Emma..." Regina closed the distance between them pulling Emma flushed with her body pulling her into a crashing kiss.

Thunder crashed in the distance as both woman felt a hot white surge flow into their bodies as the kiss deepened. Emma tried to wrap her arms around the woman in front of her but couldn't because of the cold iron cuffs around her wrists. Regina snapped her fingers as she sensed the woman's dilemma, pulling the blonde closer now that she had her wrists free now. Emma moaned as she felt the brunette's tongue caress hers as she parted her lips. As they slowly parted both of them never wanted to let go. They leaned against each other's forehead as the rested against one another. Emma was the first to pull away.

"I have to go." Emma stated softly

"No, Emma you don't. Stay here with me."

"I need time Regina. This is too much too fast."

"Okay but stay in the castle, please."

"No."

"Why Emma?" Regina asked.

"I need some space."

"Okay, But I refuse to let you wear cuffs. And let me heal you please."

"Okay."

The Queen held her palm over the younger woman healing all of her wounds she sustained in the battle. Emma leaned in one last time kissing the dark woman softly as she turned and left. Regina wanted to reach out and hold her close but she knew she had to give this to the blonde if she ever wanted to hold her again.

"Good night" she whispered as the door closed shut.

The door opened again as she looked up Maleficent and Ursula walked in.

"We need to talk." Maleficent said as she closed the door locking it magically.
