Chapter 21
Lily sat across from her mother's and looked around a little uncomfortable. She spent her whole life getting into trouble, even when she had people that cared, and now she was finding out that her biological parents were two of the worst villains from the childhood stories her other parents read to her. "So…" She started looking between Maleficent and Regina, "You two are my parents?"
Mal hadn't stopped staring at her daughter, she couldn't believe she was finally in front of them. She wasn't a kid but she was beautiful. Too caught up in her own train of thought she didn't hear Lily's question and didn't respond.
Regina glanced at Mal and reached over to grab her hand before turning back to their daughter and nodding, "Yes, I know it's a lot to take in but yes we are your parents."
"Maleficent…" Lily said looking at her blonde mother before turning her gaze to Regina, "And the Evil Queen. I won't even get into the whole fact that neither of you have a penis just yet, but you're telling that I'm the spawn of two of the worst villains in kids books. The ones that are supposed to scare children."
Regina gawked at her not knowing how to respond, she wasn't sure who Lily got her bluntness from, it could easily have been either of them. Lily's comment was enough to break Mal's train of thought and she narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Yes, we are…" Mal started looking at Regina slightly, "well no actually that's not true. Not anymore. Not for Regina."
"What do you mean?" Lily asked furrowing her brows.
"I mean, the woman you most likely saw earlier… the bald one that magically grew hair." Mal responded biting her lip to keep from laughing, "She's the one your mother wanted revenge on and now they're basically family."
"Mal." Regina said, "We are family, she's my son's grandmother. And my step-daughter technically."
"Whoa, wait what?" Lily asked even more confused than before.
Regina looked back over at Lily realizing this wasn't going to get anywhere, their life was very complicated. "Henry," she started, "my son, my adopted son, he's Emma's biological son, making him Snow White's grandson. It's very complicated, honey."
Mal looked at Regina thinking, "You know this would make you Henry's step great-grandmother don't you?"
"Yes, it's very fucked up."
Lily busted out laughing, "Honestly, I'm waiting for the cameras to come out and yell gotcha, this can't be real. I mean come on seriously?" She looked between them, "Seriously? You're telling me all this is real…"
"Yes." Regina replied.
"Okay… start at the beginning. How did two women make a child? I mean I'm guessing sperm donors weren't a thing, wherever you're from."
"The Enchanted Forest," Regina replied, "We can take you there if you'd like, my castle is still standing."
"Mine is so much better," Mal commented looking over at Regina, "You used to think so too. Not to mention," Mal said turning her gaze to her daughter, "That's where you were conceived and no not by a sperm donor, it was magic. Your mother here was young and inexperienced and really didn't have control over her emotions to control the magic she possessed."
Regina rolled her eyes, "I was a warpath, you knew that…"
"Okay stop." Lily interrupted them. "I don't need the specifics, I don't think I want the specifics."
"Don't worry sweetheart, knowing Regina's luck it's just a matter of time before you see exactly how you were made." Mal commented smirking at Regina, "You've already scarred your other child."
"Maleficent," Regina said dangerously, "Stop."
Lily scrunched her face in disgust, "I'm going to the bathroom."
She got up leaving the two sorceresses behind. Regina looked over at Mal. "Seriously Mal?"
"What?"
"She's already doesn't believe half of this and is ready to run, you're going to scare her off by scarring her for life with mental images no child wants."
Mal rolled her eyes, "Fine I'll stop. But only if you kiss me." She smirked.
Regina laughed, "You're insatiable." she commented before leaning over and pecking Mal's lips. She was about to move back when Mal snaked a hand into her hair holding her in place and deepening the kiss. Regina moaned slightly into Mal's mouth. The blonde rested her other hand on her partners thigh fiddling with the end of her skirt. She continued kissing the queen nipping at her bottom lip and letting her hand slip under Regina's skirt and rest on her inner thigh.
"Oh god." They heard coming from Lily as she sat down and turned away to avoid having to witness that.
They broke apart, Regina turning red and looking down to straighten up. Mal biting her lip and glancing at her daughter.
"Alright listen." Lily started, "I don't know why but for some reason I do believe you're my parents." She said watching Mal's face lighten up, "I didn't say I was staying," she mumbled slightly, "But how are we going to get revenge then?"
"I'm sorry?" Mal asked.
"Revenge. You're villains aren't you." She said turning towards Regina, "Didn't you say someone stole me from her and that's why we weren't together?"
"Well yes but… that's not… I mean, we didn't bring you here for revenge sweetheart."
Lily rolled her eyes, "Right you're the soft one." She said turning to her other mother, "Are you actually a dragon? Or was that just in the cartoons."
"I am," Mal confirmed, "I'm assuming you are too since dragon genes are more dominant than human genes."
"Good, you and I can get revenge."
"Uh…" Mal started looking at Regina, "Sweetie, I think your mom is right. There's no point in that now."
"Seriously? I'm the daughter of two of the most powerful witches in this town and neither of you want to get revenge for not having me in your lives for 31 years?!" She said, "Turns out most people know who I am and are already afraid. Maybe I'll do it myself."
"Lily," Regina started.
"Where am I staying?" She asked suddenly.
Regina and Mal exchanged looks, "At my house," Regina responded. "Maleficent hasn't moved in yet but she will eventually and maybe you can meet your brother."
"Right." Lily said. "Can we go? I'm tired."
"Of course," Regina said getting up. "I don't suppose you brought a car?" she asked Mal.
"How long have you known me?"
"Right, do you want to or should I?"
"Go on sweetpea, I haven't seen you do this is in a very long time." Mal responded winking at Regina.
Regina rolled her eyes, knowing she was only doing that so Lily could see she wasn't weak. Regina grabbed Mal and Lily's hand and closed her eyes teleporting them to her front porch.
Lily looked around startled. "How the…"
"Magic, dear." Regina responded unlocking her door.
They made their way inside as Lily looked around, "You live here?"
"Perks of being the mayor."
"Oh."
"I can show you to your room, if you want to rest." Regina offered.
"Yeah, please." Lily responded following her up the steps to one of the guest rooms in the house.
"Mal and I will downstairs if you need anything. We really are incredibly happy to have you here."
Lily nodded as she sat on the bed, Regina left and went back downstairs and sat next to Mal. She laid her head on Mal's shoulder as the dragon wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer. Mal had both her girls under the same roof and she wasn't about to complain.
