Chapter 14


Regina was chopping vegetables in the kitchen for dinner when she felt a tingle between her legs. She clenched her jaw and closed her eyes, begging herself not to get too riled up. "Emma! Swan!" She growled her irritation loudly. She couldn't believe the younger woman had the audacity to tease her like she was in their home while their children were still awake.

The sheriff appeared in the kitchen within a second, grinning big and acting all innocent. "Yes dear?"

"Turn them off." The older woman grumbled.

Light eyebrows furrowed. "Turn what off, Gina?" She asked with a cheeky laugh.

The former queen glared the best she could as the vibration went up in intensity. "Oh lord." She moaned quietly, clutching the counter.

Emma smirked. "Still want me to stop?" The brunette shook her head and bit her lip with a moan. "Speak up, baby. I didn't quite hear that." She teased and pressed a higher setting.

Brown eyes rolled into the back of her head as pleasure flooded through her veins. She was still shaking her head radically. "No." She licked her lips as let her body enjoy the teasing. Her hips starting moving for more friction, more pressure, but she was just humping air.

The sheriff bit her lip as she watched the erotic scene. Her fiancée was muttering under her breath and gasping. "God, Regina you look so sexy right now." She whispered quietly as she walked behind her riled up true love. She had her remote in one hand but her free hand she wrapped around Regina's middle and pushed against her. Emma nuzzled her nose up to the brunette's ear and whispered, "You want more. Don't you?" She heard a whimper. "You're all pent up and you're only re quest is to finally come after I've been teasing you all day long.."

The hot breath against her ear and the endless vibration against her was becoming too much. Sneaky fingers were dancing along her torso while she reached her own hand up to clutch her lover's neck, keeping warm lips on her skin. "I need more." She huffed out.

Emma smirked and pressed hot opened mouthed kisses against a slender neck. "What's the magic word?" She asked before latching her lips onto the mayor's pulse point, sucking harshly.

Regina couldn't stop her strangled groan as her eyes rolled into the back of her head. She reared her head back closed her eyes. If she weren't so eager to come she'd put up more of a fight. "Please." She moaned.

The savior happily hit the highest mode and held the brunette as her body squirmed with pleasure. Emma knew the pressure was building immensely within the older woman. "It's bittersweet isn't it, baby? Feeling so good but knowing I can't slip inside your tight little cunt like we both want me to." She breathed into her ear. Her hot breath was making Regina soak through the black panties as the endless vibration to her clit brought her closer and closer to the edge. The mayor was practically whining as her legs started to feel like jelly. "Fuck me." She panted breathlessly, bending over the bar top and resting her forehead on the granite countertop. She licked her dry and let out a strangled moan as her hips rolled against nothing.

"Oh I want to, Regina. Jesus Christ do I want to." Hearing the desperate chanting from her lover and watching her gripping the bar for stability was turning Emma on more than she could possibly have imagined. There was always something about getting the former queen to lose control of herself that made the savior, well, lose her own sense of control. "If it were up to me I'd be laying you down on this bar and shoving my tongue inside your soaked pussy. Showing you how much I missed the taste of you." She slid a hand down to where the vibrating was and started to palm her lover through the black lace.

Regina lost it at the contact. "Oh God." She brought her hand to her mouth and bit her fist as euphoria exploded inside of her, spreading like a drug through her veins. It reached the tips of her toes and despite her best efforts to keep quiet, she couldn't stop the low moan that erupted from her vocal cords. She bucked her hips into the savior's palm as she felt her center clench around nothing while she came.

After letting the brunette ride it out, Emma turned off the panties and slipped the remote back in her pocket before standing up straight again. The sight of her beautifully used bent over the bare was one to remember. With a smirk she slapped that fine ass and chuckled smugly. "I missed watching you come, Madam Mayor." She teased before leaving the kitchen.

Regina stayed bent over the bar as she heard her lover leave the room. She wanted to be pissed at what occurred mere moments prior because she wasn't one for begging, but all she felt was complete gratification. Her body felt deliciously used as her wetness dripped down her thighs. She clenched her legs together with a breathy laugh of her own. It seems her fiancée found a much-appreciated loophole to their sex ban.

Still though, no one teased the Evil Queen and got away with it. She made a note to make Emma pay for it when they went on their trip. She's make her beg for it.


The next day, Emma walked into the station with a book in hand. She spotted Elsa at Killian's desk- he was out on patrol with David- and dropped the hardback in front of the other blonde. "Belle found something in here. It's a spell. It may be able to work against the Snow Queen."

Elsa turned her head and looked up at the savior. "You don't mean kill her?"

"No." The sheriff shook her head. "No one's killing anyone." She assured. "It's just to neutralize her powers. Maybe."

The Ice Queen looked at over the foreign language. "Can you read this?" She questioned.

"Elvfish?" Emma huffed a laugh. "No. I didn't even see Lord of The Rings." When Elsa looked up at her in confusion the sheriff waved it off. "Never mind." She reached into her back jean pocket and pulled out the folded paper and handed it to the woman in blue. "Belle translated it. It's supposed to tell her how to enact the spell."

Elsa read it aloud, "With both hands hold the candle, then use your magic to light it and then when you blow on it-"

"Then bam! She's right back to selling ice cream." The savior cut her off. "My guess is business will be down."

The Arendelle royalty nodded. "Maybe without her powers we can talk to her. We can find Anna. We can get some real answers."

Light eyebrows furrowed. "Does your sister have magic?" She pried curiously.

"No." Elsa informed her and stood up. "I think that's why the Snow Queen is so interested in you."

Emma scoffed. "Yeah."

"Does anybody in your family have magic?"

The sheriff shook her head. "No. Well, Regina does, but not my blood family. We think Charlie might have it though."

Elsa licked her lips. "It's hard when they look at you differently. Isn't it?"

Emma thought about and shrugged. "They don't." She told the other woman.

The Ice Queen smiled at her. "You're lucky." She handed her the candle and took a step back. "Okay. Let's try this."

Thinking back to all her magic lessons with Regina, both before and after Charlie was born, Emma concentrated hard on lighting the candle. It happened quickly and she blew on it, watching the flames head towards Elsa. When it reached her the fire went out.

"I'm sorry." Elsa apologized. "Should we try again."

The sheriff shook her head. "No, I've-"

"Smells like magic in here." Regina said from the doorway with their infant son sleeping in his car seat. "What are you up to?"

Emma grinned at her fiancée and sat the candle down. "Trying to capture the Snow Queen." She told the older woman. "I was just about to call you. Seems we're meant to be."

The mayor smiled at the comment. "You won't hear me disagree." She sat Charlie on Killian's work desk and kissed her true love sweetly. "It's good to know you didn't forget about your mommy and me class today."

"You're welcome to come with us." Emma said, knowing the answer would still be a resounding no.

Regina scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Like I want to sit in a room filled with a bunch of spoiled princesses and their spoiled children. Just bring him back to my office once it's over."

Emma nodded and swiped his blonde hair gently. "Got it. Are his teeth still hurting?"

"I'm afraid so. His top left canine tooth is almost cut through. I gave him some Tylenol before we left the house though so he doesn't need any more." The former queen explained.

"Thank God for modern medicine." The sheriff chuckled. "I don't know how anybody dealt with kids back in the Enchanted Forest." She teased. "How long are you working today, baby?"

Regina shrugged. "I'm not sure. Your mother was quite unorganized in my absence so I'm having to reorganize everything." She growled before licking her lips. "Be careful today."

A blonde eyebrow rose. "It's mommy and me class, Regina. Not sword fighting 101."

"I meant after that." She pointed to the candle on the desk. "If you go after the Snow Queen, make it count. The last thing this town needs is for you to be captured."

"Aw, you know you could just say that you'd miss me if I got captured." Emma teased.

Brown eyes rolled. "Just don't do anything too stupidly Charming, dear."


Emma walked into Ashley's apartment with Charlie on her hip and his diaper bag in her other hand. She saw her mother sitting in a circle with the other mom's in town. They were finishing up the Hello song.

Snow waved to her. "Emma! Over here! You missed the Hello song."

The sheriff waved it off and sat next to her, kissing DJ's brown hair when she saw him. "I think I got the gist of it from the title."

"Ladies, let's all welcome our newest members of Mommy & Me time, Emma and Charlie." Ashley beamed and all the women clapped.

Emma was already regretting her decision to come. She wouldn't have even agreed to it, but Mary Margaret had been pressuring her to do so since the baby was born. Since Regina was against going, that left the savior to go and she already hated it. She put Charlie on her knee and let him chew on her finger as she pulled out her phone and to text her fiancée.

'You were right. This is Hell.' She sent.

Two horribly rhyming songs later she received a message from the brunette. 'That's why I love you, dear. You're just as grumpy as me about things like that.'

Emma fought a laugh and replied, 'First and last Mommy & Me class EVER!'

"Emma?" Snow's voice made her look up.

"Hm?" The sheriff asked.

The pixie haired woman gave a scolding look. "Kathryn asked you a question."

Emma turned to the blonde in question. "I'm sorry, could you repeat that?"

"I just asked if we're ever going to see Regina here with you." Her father's ex-wife asked.

The savior bit back her laugh. She cleared her throat. "She's pretty busy, so I doubt it. Maybe in the near future." She lied.

The rest of the Mommy & Me class was torture. Finally- after a terrible Goodbye song- the class ended.

"So how'd you like it?" Mary Margaret asked as her and Emma gathered their stuff together. "It was fun. Right?"

Emma nodded. "So fun!" She fibbed.

Snow White saw right past it. "You hated it."

"It was so awful." The blonde confessed with a sigh. "I'm sorry! I'm just… not into this kind of stuff." She shrugged. "It's not me."

Mary Margaret was slightly disappointed her daughter didn't enjoy it, but it was long shot anyways. "I understand. It's not for everybody."

"I'm glad you like it though." The sheriff told her mother sincerely just as her phone rang. It was David. "Hello?" She answered.

"Emma. There's something going on at the clock tower." Charming informed her. "There's a trail going up the stairs. An ice trail." He clarified.

The sheriff took a breath. "The Snow Queen. Is she still up there?"

"The trail goes up, but it doesn't come down." The deputy spoke.

Emma nodded. "All right. I'll be right there." She hung up and pocketed her cell phone and adjusted her grip on Charlie. "The Snow Queen is in the clock tower." She told her mother. "I hate to ask, but can you bring him to Regina for me? She's at her office."

Mary Margaret nodded. "Of course. I'd be happy to."


When the sheriff got to the tower her father was waiting outside of the library with Hook and Elsa beside him. She parked her bug and got out. "Any change?" She asked the deputy.

David shook his head. "She's still up there."

Emma looked towards the woman in blue. "You have the candle?"

"Hook took me back to the station to get it." Elsa said, holding up said candle.

The savior grabbed it. "Let's go arrest this bitch." She told the trio and went towards the tower. They used the elevator to get up there and the second the doors opened, Emma was running up the stairs. The second she saw just the tiniest bit of white she hollered. "Hey!"

When she reached the top of the tower, the Snow Queen threw an icicle her way, nearly tearing through her neck but it just managed to graze her. "Ah." She hissed in pain.

"Emma now!" Elsa yelled and the savior lit the candle before blowing it towards Ingrid and capturing his magical hands in handcuffs from the flames. It almost seemed too easy.

Elsa smiled big. "You did it!' She hugged Emma, grateful for all the work she'd done to help her.

"You got me." The Snow Queen said simply and her tone seemed too calm for the sheriff's liking.


David had his arms crossed as he looked at the Snow Queen through the one-way mirror. She was sitting calmly, like her plans to enact the curse weren't hindered at all. "Do you want me to talk to her?" He asked his daughter.

The blonde shook her head. "No. She's fixated on Elsa and me. Us talking to her is the best way figure out what she's really here for." She looked towards the woman in blue. "Are you ready?"

Elsa nodded. "I need to find Anna and she's our best lead."

"Should I call Regina and let her know we have the Snow Queen?" Charming asked.

"No." Emma insisted. "She's got a lot of work to get done and she has Charlie. I don't want him anywhere near danger."

The sheriff and the queen of Arendelle left for the interrogation room. As she entered Emma said, "All right Queenie, time to talk."

Ingrid gazed at the cut on the savior's neck. "Oh. You should get that checked out, Emma."

The woman in leather huffed and crossed her arms. "Now you wanna play nice?"

"With you two?" The Snow Queen clarified. "Don't you understand? That's all I've ever wanted."

Elsa had her hands on her hips. "We don't care what you want." She was only there for one thing. "Where's Anna? What happened to her?"

"I'm not sure you should care." The Snow Queen said. "She's the one who put you in that urn. I have no idea why you'd want to find someone like that."

"Because she's my sister and she would never do what you say." Elsa said firmly.

"Or," Ingrid began, "she's your sister and she couldn't handle what you- what we- are and she did exactly as I say."

"No!" The Queen of Arendelle yelled, banging her hands against the table.

Emma stepped forward and touched the young blonde's arms. "Elsa. Please." They walked towards the door and the savior whispered, "Easy. She's getting under your skin. Don't let your emotions cloud your judgment. If we want answers we have to be calm."

"She knows what happened to Anna." The Ice queen argued.

"And we're going to figure it all out." Emma insured her. "You go help David and Hook try to figure out how to take apart her mirror. I got this."

Elsa wasn't convinced. "Emma-"

"I got it." The sheriff reiterated. "I'm good at getting people to talk. I'm engaged to the Evil Queen for God's sake. I think I can get her talk." She watched as the woman in blue walked away without a word. Once she was out of sight, Emma shut the door and headed to the other side of the Snow Queen. "Okay. Now it's just me."

Ingrid smiled. "Good. You're the one I wanted to talk to anyway."

Emma sat down at the chair across from the older blonde and leaned back in it. "Yeah, yeah. I know. You want me to join to the dark side and be your sister, buddy, something or other. I'm not interested."

"You know, I'm so proud of you Emma." The Snow Queen told her.

The sheriff scoffed. "No. That's not gonna work. I know we have a past, which we're gonna get into, but you're not gonna push my buttons."

"I'm being completely sincere." Ingrid told her calmly. "Use your superpower. You'll see I'm telling the truth."

Emma was shocked the Snow Queen knew such a thing about her, but she kept the emotion off of her face. "How do you know about that?" She asked after a short pause.

"You told me." The woman in white said with a shrug. "When you were a child. What a lovely child you were. I'm so grateful I got to know you then."

The sheriff shook her head. "Don't talk to me like we're friends." She told her firmly.

"We're not friends Emma." Ingrid agreed. "We're much more than that. We're family."

"I know that's what you want, but whatever past we had- the past you stole from me- I know enough to tell you about the future and what you want? It ain't gonna happen, sister."

The savior's words didn't affect the Snow Queen at all. "Oh but it will. You see, at the end of the day, you'll see that everything I'm saying is true and then you'll do the last thing in the world you'll think possible right now."

Emma tilted her head to the side in disbelief. "Yeah? What's that?"

"You're going to let me go." She took a deep breath. "Now then. What would you like to talk about?"


Elsa was studying the mirror in the clock tower with Hook right behind her and David standing off to the side.

"This is what we're been worrying about?" The pirate huffed. "Shouldn't it be shaking or doing something evil?" He questioned.

The blonde nodded. "Agreed. She looked behind it, but saw nothing to worry over. "It feels like just a harmless looking glass to me."

Belle came climbing up the stairs with a book in her arms. "I've found nothing to counteract the spell yet." She looked up from said book and panicked when she saw Elsa and Killian looking into the mirror. "Hey!" She grabbed the one handed man's arm and forced him to look away. "Stop! Do not look in that thing! It will make you see the worst in yourself." She informed everybody.

Hook raised a dark eyebrow in disbelief. "Well it must be broken. I've been looking at it all day and I think I'm even more devilishly handsome and charming then before." He smirked. Elsa looked at him and inwardly agreed. She wasn't blind. She could see how attractive he was.

Belle furrowed her eyebrows and started walking towards the mirror. She just saw her reflection. "This isn't the same mirror."

Elsa was confused. "Why would the Snow Queen risk coming all the way out here just to plant a fake mirror?"

Charming and Killian made eye contact, both catching on to the same idea.

"It's a trap." The pirate spoke.

"She wanted to get caught." David said and didn't even waste any time with heading down to the station.


Emma put the requested glass of water in front of Ingrid and paced the room in silence.

After a short pause the Snow Queen said, "It's understandable if you're upset."

The sheriff wasn't upset. She was just pissed. "Now you think you know how I feel?"

"I know you better then you know yourself, Emma." Ingrid informed her.

"Yeah, because you took, what? A year from my life?" Emma growled and kept pacing.

The Snow Queen licked her lips. "When you lived with me you talked about your parents all the time. You were so angry with them for giving you up."

Emma shook her head. "They had a good reason for that. I know that now."

"Because of the very woman that claims to love you now?" The older woman hit her low with that one. "You felt alone for twenty-eight years all because of them."

"Shit happens." The sheriff argued. "My parents didn't have a choice."

"There's always a choice, Emma. They could have kept you. They could have figured something out." Ingrid argued.

Emma glared at the blonde and leaned her hands on the table. "They did what they could to save an entire kingdom!"

"But you were their only child and they used you to break a curse. They're still using your powers."

The savior scoffed a dry laugh. "That's not true." She shook her head.

"Isn't it?" The Snow Queen countered. "How many times have you saved them? How often have you felt more like a savior then their daughter? And all it takes is one mistake, one accident and you and your powers go from being their salvation to their worst nightmare."

"You don't know them or me." Emma said firmly.

Ingrid huffed. "I don't have to know you, Emma. I've been you. Different. Misunderstood. Alone." She listed. "And now? They've chosen to have a new child. And don't you think that they thank their lucky stars that he was born normal."

Emma glared coldly at the Snow Queen. "They love me." Without her knowledge, the room temperature water had turned to boiling.

"You can't love somebody that you don't understand." Ingrid said firmly. "And you know what happens when they don't understand something? They learn to fear it! And then they look at it like a monster!"

The savior had enough. She slammed her hands back down on the table and screamed, "Shut-up!" Magic flew through her hands and she watched in shock as the wall of the interrogation room blew open. She looked down at her hands in surprise and watched the white magic on her fingertips. "What did you do to me?" She demanded.

Ingrid made the handcuffs disappear and stood up with a smile on her face. "Well I did show you who you really are."

The power flowing through her felt uncontrollable and the sheriff felt herself panicking. "Well make it stop!" She demanded.

"I can't." The Snow Queen shook her head happily. "It's you, Emma and it's beautiful."

Emma watched helplessly as the woman disappeared into snowflakes.


David, Belle, Hook, and Elsa went to the station for Emma, but the locks were iced over, as were the windows. They tried for a good twenty minutes to get them unlocked but eventually gave up and that's how they ended in Gold's shop, looking for answers.

Rumple rolled his eyes when he saw the deputy storm in. "This should be interesting."

"The Snow Queen iced over the locked at the station. Emma's trapped inside with her." Charming told him.

"We need your help, Rumple." Belle told the man seriously. "Please."

Gold shook his head. "You have the Snow Queen in custody?" He hissed. "Let's go kill her then, shall we?"

"God!" Emma was pissed at herself. She let the woman get under her skin against her better judgment. Now she felt out of control and scared that she'd accidently hurt somebody. She looked around and stepped out of the building to assess the damage. She couldn't believe it. "What have I done?"

"Emma!" David called her name as he ran up on her with Snow, Elsa, Henry, Hook, Belle, and Gold in tow. "Are you all right?" He asked.

Mary Margaret clenched her chest. "We were so worried!"

Gold was the only on in the group who wasn't running towards the building. "Of course I can't count on you all to keep her in your custody." He growled.

"Swan, what did that monster do to the sheriff's station?" Killian questioned her.

Emma shook her head. "The monster that did this wasn't the Snow Queen. It was me." She confessed.

David didn't understand. "What?"

He took a step closer to her. "Just keep your distance!" Emma pleaded. All she could think about was accidentally hurting her family or friends. "I don't know if I can control myself. I don't want to hurt anybody." She couldn't forgive herself if she hurt anyone. She turned to walk away towards her car.

"Emma we can help you!" Elsa insisted.

Killian went after the savior and just barely touched her when she reared back. "Let me go!" She demanded and the lights sparked dangerously.

A streetlight fell towards Hook, but David pushed him out of the way and felt the weight of the light, wincing in pain. Emma wanted to help him up, but didn't want to hurt him further.

Snow headed over to her husband's aid and saw he was holding his shoulder in pain. She turned to her daughter. "Emma!" She scolded, but the second she made eye contact her daughter she instantly felt awful. The sheriff took off towards the bug. "No! Please come back! It's okay!" Her mother insisted.

"Tell Regina to keep Charlie away!" Emma yelled behind her and climbed in her car before taking off. She couldn't take it if she did anything bad to her baby, either of them.

After he watched the yellow car pull away, Henry pulled out his phone and dialed his adoptive mother. "Mom? It's Ma. She… her magic is out of control. We need your help."


This one was hard to write for me. I knew I wanted Emma to have this part in the arc, but it was trickier than I thought! I hope it turned out well! Tell me if you liked it!

Of course we'll see how Regina deals with her fiancee going off the magic handle. That should be fun! In the next chapter, prepare things to start moving at a more rapid pace. We'll see Anna finally & the Shattered Sight curse will be threatening everybody in town.

I'm leaving town for the weekend with my father so I won't be able to update Sunday. I do, however, plan to update Monday so the wait still won't be too long! Don't hate me!

As always, tell me all about what you thought of this one!

Until next time guys :*
