Berta was at the top of Gaia dome enjoying being outside around apples trees and flowers wishing she had a book to read. Regina has sudden cravings for apple juice and wonders if she took it too far with Emma. She struggling if she should tell Emma she is going Wonderland or go without her. She sat in her vault deep in thought. She touched her abdomen as she whispers to herself looking down, what I am going with you. I am sorry you are in not the best of circumstances between Emma and I. Regina looked into all Seeing Eye with her blood again for third time to see the face of her future daughter, black wavy hair similar when Regina was young, hazel eyes and light toned like Emma's, but has Regina's lips and chin. While Emma was unsure and here she is, pregnant and not Dark One anymore. She feels strange to have all her feelings back right after somehow Emma did something. Regina doesn't understand why she is pregnant again. She doesn't understand how Emma does this and goes off to Hook. Nothing makes sense to her anymore. Now she is more afraid for her own daughters have to pay the price to save Storybrooke that she has to give up her own happy ending to keep her daughters alive. Is it the price she's willingly to pay, she wonders. She feels the days are getting closer and she is not looking forward to it. She grabbed the few books about Haji, master of all genies who will break the laws of magic to save Storybrooke from King Arthur and her daughters. She would need one more genie lamp and Red Queen has one when she killed her genie because of Jafar.
She looked around the place and she has grown to love it to be surrounded by all kinds of fishes and sharks. Those animals had made her feel less lonely in the middle cold sea. Now she doesn't know what would happen to this Enchanted Forest so she planned to have it moved under her vault with the statue of Swan and crown on the top that can only appear and opened by blood magic.
Berta has been standing at the doorframe until Regina noticed her, "How long have you been standing there, Miss Berta?"
Berta shrugged, "I got bored and decided to bother you."
Regina looked and studied her, "Sorry to disappoint you but nothing is going to happen; however, there is a final choice you have to make."
Berta was disappointed, "What is the choice?"
Regina answered, "Right after Wonderland, I will find your daughter; as a consequence, you cannot go back to Wonderland, Enchanted Forest or even stay at Storybrooke. So you can either tell your lover to come with you to the Land Without Magic or you can go alone. Emma and I will give you money you need for a place to live and Emma will help you land a job wherever your daughter is, so you can be closer to her."
Berta was disgruntled with her limited options, "Why can't I stay in Wonderland or even here?"
Regina explained, "The curse that split my identity to Regina Mills the bandit is alternative reality that King Arthur created, so when I defeat him, this Enchanted Forest will cease to exist and you would have never remembered or even met me. You will not be safe if you remain in Wonderland. What is it going to be, Miss Berta?"
Berta was all of sudden confused, "What about the people here and Maurie?"
Regina understands her hesitation, "The people aren't original; I mean they are real as much as you and I, but they are artificial in order to trap me."
Berta tries to wrap this around her head, "So all of this Enchanted Forest is from a curse to trap you, but I have been here as long as I can remember."
Regina nodded, "You have, but it is the memories that King Arthur inserted into the people thinking they have been living here all of their lives, but they only lived here for few months give or take. Somehow, King Arthur included you in the curse, but I don't know why yet. The only way I can safely move you from chess board is for you to leave from magical and all curses so you won't be harmed from King Arthur without using you for his personal reasons."
Berta tries to think if she has seen him before, "Have I met King Arthur?"
Regina looked into her eyes, "You have met him through Red Queen, but he wiped your memories. I cannot bring your memories back because he used a spell that is out of my reach."
Berta questioned, "So Red Queen have met and remembers him? And what does Red Queen gets out of it?"
Regina sighed heavily, "Yes Red Queen remembers him as clear as day. Your responsibility and your job that Red Queen asked you is me, for you to bring me to her."
Berta doesn't believe her, "That's a lie. I wouldn't betray you like that, Your Majesty."
Regina shrugged, "It is in your blood and you cannot help it, so yes you would betray me as I knew you will one day. Your day has come and don't worry, you do your part and I will do mine."
Berta backed away as Regina stood up facing her, "No… No…. I …."
Regina kissed her cheek softly then smelled her on her neck, "It is ok Berta. It is the reason why I couldn't resist you because they put permanent spell on you that when I smell you, it makes my body would get into you that I couldn't pull myself away from you. Every time I touch you, thanks to you I can feel again even it is just a few seconds. It is the spell that makes me want more from you."
Berta looked into her eyes to see if she was hypocritical, "…. Coconut and flower that was specifically made from Wonderland…."
Regina nodded and smiled, "It smells good on you and intoxicated that I couldn't control myself sometimes."
Berta was furious as she tries to wipe herself from it, "Can you get it off from me?"
Regina smiled getting closer, "No, I cannot. Red Queen took the spell from King Arthur, so the item that are needed to make a potion into a soap is from Underworld. I cannot access to it. It is permanent on your body until Red Queen gives you a potion for you to drink to remove it from your blood."
Berta looked at her shocked, "So none of this is real?"
Regina sadly looked at her, "Berta, if it wasn't real then I wouldn't care about keeping you safe. I understand it is no fault of your own because it was mine."
Berta pointed out, "I made you to do this to me."
Regina, "Even that was so, I have grown fond of you. I feel I am responsible for you. That is why I am offering you a way out of this alone or bring your lover with you" Regina sees that she is not letting this go. Berta felt used and took advantage of in search of her daughter.
Berta looked away ashamed to put Regina in this position, "I am sorry, Your Majesty. I did not know I was doing that to you."
Berta sighed as Regina tapped on her shoulder, "Berta, look at me," it took Berta few minutes to look at her then Regina smiled warmly, "you did nothing wrong and I do not hold it against you at all. It is ok, truly, Berta. Please believe that. I do like you and believe me that does not happen often. It is not because of the spell of the smell you have effect on me. It is because of who you are personally, ok?"
Berta madly yelled at her, "I made you cheat on Emma, Your Majesty! I do not think I can forgive myself for this. I put you in that position!"
Regina tries again as Berta blames herself, "Berta …."
Berta didn't let her finish and in tears backing away, "No! … I have to explain to Emma! I …. I do not deserve you! You are the only person in my entire life that hasn't tricked me or in any way and you have helped me in a way that no one else couldn't. I …"
Regina spoke softly, "Berta, I promise it is alright."
Berta doesn't understand why Regina isn't doing anything, "No! … Why are you still helping me? I cannot do this to you, Regina."
Regina answered, "I told you I would help you find your daughter, and I meant it. You know that you have to do this, Berta. Nothing bad will happen to me."
Berta sulked as she listened, "I am sorry, Regina."
Regina nodded and hugged, "It is ok, do not overthink this. Besides, I am sorry too."
Berta hugged back laughed quietly at her apology, "It is not every day you hear an apology from the Queen."
Regina smirked and ignored at that comment, "So what do you want, Berta? Do you want to go alone to the Land Without Magic or bring your lover with you?"
Berta considered thoughtfully, "I wish you would come with me instead. Generally, you have a good heart and a lot of people misunderstood you."
Regina smiled, "I appreciate the thought, Berta. It will not be real if I go with you because I do not love you. Even Emma ache my heart, I am madly in love with her. I think about her every day and our kids," she touched her abdomen.
Berta confirmed for her as she saw her touching her belly, "you're not the Dark One anymore."
Regina nodded, "I am not. That is why I smelled earlier to see if it still had effect on me, and it does."
Berta questioned, "How long, Your Majesty?"
Regina answered truthfully, "Since I came back from Storybrooke."
Berta seriously crossed her face, "Since that morning I woke up?"
Regina heavily sighed.
Berta nodded, "So that is why you touched me differently than Dark One pressured me?"
Regina with small frown, "I was heartbroken and I apologize for putting you out there. I needed to feel something else other than my heart breaking into pieces."
Berta doesn't understand, "Yet you are still going back to her, why is that?"
Regina shrugged, "I love her and I know she loves me even she is not good with words. She is worth of every heartache."
Berta rolled her eyes, "You both are unorthodox and craziest couple I have ever met."
Regina laughed, "I know and I don't care. She is my true love."
Berta sighed as she looked deep into her eyes, "You need to forgive her. She doesn't need you to beat her up as she is already beating herself up for what she did to you. Right now, I am positive she is having nightmare about this."
Regina is unsure about that, "That is between Emma and I, Berta. Be careful what you are going to say next."
Berta backed away with hands up, "I am sorry. That was out of line, Your Majesty."
Regina explained the plan about teleporting the domes under the vault, "Right now, will be the last time I will be here in Enchanted Forest. I am not coming back, so if you need to do something then I suggest you do it now."
Berta reconfirmed what she said, "I can bring Maurie with me if I wanted to?"
Regina nodded, "Of course you can; although remember you cannot tell him about me, this Enchanted forest and about us. You can only offer a choice to him saying that you have a daughter in another realm and he can go with you or not. That is up to him. If he truly loves you, he would follow you anywhere, no matter what realm it is."
Berta crossed her eyes, "I thought he is not real, that he is created in a different Enchanted Forest in order to trap you, so how is it I am allowed to bring with me?"
Regina explained, "Henry, remember him?"
Berta nodded.
Regina continued, "I have two Henrys. My Henry is older, happily married and have a daughter. Right now he is cursed with another me, Roni, in Settle. Roni right now is working on to defeat the witch to break the curse so they can come back to Storybrooke in the right timeline. This Henry that is a teenager boy is from Wish Realm which Evil Queen created to trap Emma because she wish she was never a savior and grew up with her parents. I brought Henry with me because no matter what realm Henry is, I will fight and save my son until the ends of the earth. I will do anything for that boy. So it is the same way with your Maurie. You can easily bring him across realm and he will be fine."
Berta was deep in thought as she listens, "I will go and talk to him. I will be back."
Regina understood, "Of course. Take your time."
Berta pulled her closer when Regina tries to resist her as she kissed her on the lips with affection, but Regina didn't return the kiss then Berta backed away smiling, "I am sorry but I wanted to say thank you. I am sorry as well for what will happen in Wonderland."
Regina sighed then kissed her soundly on the lips while smiles, "It is alright, Berta. Remember you are stronger than any spell they put you. You fought against me, so you can do this. Do not let them get to you. No matter what they tell you, resist them as you defied yourself."
Berta replied, "You know what is going to happen, don't you?"
Regina ignored the question, "Remember whatever happened in Wonderland, I do not blame you for anything. I am trusting you."
Berta teleported out then Regina teleported to Storybrooke with her wand to her vault to create a hidden statue of two swans and crown on one of them behind the mirror of the wall. When a person touched the wall, it will open and reveal another room that has an underground magical elevator that will never break down that goes to the domes. Regina rode down the elevator then created a door with her wand to connect to the domes then conjured an dust that can easily teleport an entire domes to underground vault. She waved the wand into dark red smoke to make a large round to remove the dirt mud then created three way protection barrier because she wanted to add the water around the domes. Through the door, she threw the dust so the dust can be surrounded as it took few seconds then in a swirl of dark red smoke through the door to conjured teleported the entire dome successfully in underground vault filled with water, but no animals. The door to enter the Gaia dome is few miles away so she conjured a flight of stairs to enter the dome easily. She didn't realize it took her hours as she did magic to do this and took a lot out of her then she walked over to the top of the dome and rested in her beautiful garden eating apples without realizing how hungry she is.
As Regina grew hungry when Berta finally appears when she didn't realize how much time has passed, but noticed her lover didn't come with her, "I take that Maurie rejected your advances?"
Berta grumbled crossing her arms sat next to Regina, "That asshole!"
Regina silently laughed, "He played you didn't he?"
Berta pissing off, "I don't understand why it is easy for people to take advantage of me."
Regina replied bluntly, "You are manipulative, but naïve; which is ok, you're only in your 20s that you haven't officially interacted among the people anymore you have to that are required for your travels; other than that, you pretty much the loner. You still have more to learn about the people."
Berta wasn't pleased how much Regina knows her like a book, "Will you stop that! I am not inexperienced as you think I am!"
Regina smiled, "Is that so? Would you like to propose a test?"
Berta stood up quickly facing her still with her arms crossed, "Absolutely not!"
Regina laughed and nodded, "I didn't think so."
Berta wasn't satisfied as she growls to herself, "I am not!"
Regina still smiling following her statement, "Believe what you want, Berta" stood up and kissed her cheek, "you're a good girl. Don't let anybody change who you are."
Berta asked, "Where are you going?" watching her walking up the stairs.
Regina answered, "I am starving for a burger and fries, which I would never eat it but it seems I am craving for meat so it must be Emma thing. So I am going to break in the diner and heat up some burger."
Berta was confused, "Why can't you conjured a burger like you did before?"
Regina shrugged, "I used magic and it consumed me, now I'm exhausted and drained. I wasn't supposed to use magic while I'm pregnant. You're coming with me to make sure I'm tolerable."
Berta laughed, "I don't think tolerable is the right word for you but I will make sure you are well fed at least."
Regina rolled her eyes as they went up the elevator then walked over to the Granny's diner and thankfully Granny is still there puzzled at Regina as they walked in minutes before it closes. Regina asked for a burger and fries as they sat at their table at the far end. Granny started cooking preparing their late meal in the back.
Regina waited, "I am giving you heads up that Granny called Emma the minute she walked back."
Berta eyes wide, "Emma is coming here now?"
Regina sighed heavily, "Yes, well it will take a while because of the kids and her getting dress again."
Berta half frown, "this town doesn't know how to keep a secret."
Regina laughing nodding, "Everybody knows everything going around in here. It goes faster than a telephone line, but it's the best town in the state of Maine."
Granny reappeared with two plates of burger and fries with drinks then Regina kindly thanked her. Regina ate happily for the first time she had in months even its queasy and completely unhealthy. Berta loves the taste of the burger as she ate. Regina stopped midair as she saw Emma walking towards the Diner then Berta turned around seeing Emma looking upset. Once Emma walked in the diner and saw two of them stared at her perplexed.
Emma sat right across from Regina next to Berta as she moved to give Emma space. Berta felt like third wheel wanted to get out of here but it seems Emma purposely blocked her.
Emma angrily voiced her questions, "How long you have been in town? Why are you eating a burger because you never eat one, you always eat salad or chicken with coffee. Why is she here?!" showing her jealously.
Regina nodded at her all of her valid questions shrugging, "I just arrived here and I got hungry for a burger. She is here because she is our guide to Wonderland. I was planning to see you after I ate to go to Wonderland. It seems that I cannot go without you. My powers are not working properly lately."
Emma felt something off about this, "Regina, why are you still angry at me since you have been with her? What does she have that I don't?"
Regina was shocked at that question as she put down her unfinished burger on the plate, "Are you serious? That is completely different, Emma."
Berta was surprised at her bold question, "That is low, even for you."
Emma ignored her, "How is it different?"
Regina tries to remain calm because of her pregnancy, "I understand that I had no right to judge you, Emma. However, you hesitated and was unconfident about us since we are each other's true love and soulmate that resulted the birth of our daughter. You ran off scared thinking that Hook can be your happy ending and not me. I didn't ran off to Berta. It is completely different situation." Regina didn't want to make excuses about Berta or make Berta look bad because she knows how Emma would have reacted. All of the sudden, Regina felt the pain in her abdomen as Emma was boiling mad towards her as she touched as she cringed in agony then looked at Emma, "Emma, I understand you're furious with me and you have right to be, but please stop."
Emma stood up and not showing sympathetic, "Why?! What is going on? How is it different, Regina?" pointing at Berta. Emma started to be fuming trying to control herself because she doesn't want to face her worst fears coming true whatever it is between Berta and Regina.
Berta pushed Emma out of the door to calm her and to explain as Regina started to pass out hearing Emma calling her out watching Berta pushing and pulling Emma out of the door.
Berta yelled at her as she closed the door behind her, "Emma you have to calm yourself!"
Emma refusing to calm herself, "What is going on between you two?"
Berta tries again, "I promise there nothing going on between us, but you have to cool yourself down because you're hurting Regina."
Emma was puzzled, "How am I hurting Regina? All I do lately is causing her suffering! I tried to make it up to her but she won't let me!"
Berta with her hands up trying to calm her, "She is trying to protect you. All of your questions will be answered, but first before you go back, you are required to remain calm."
Emma nodded starting to breathe and calming herself down, "There is nothing going on between you two?"
Berta replied, "No. She is over in heels in love with you. She will do anything for you. She changed her life literally because of you while you ran off to Hook without thinking about her. Regina felt you have forsaken her again."
Emma started to be gloomy, "I haven't, Berta."
Berta doesn't believe her, but said, "Then prove it to her, not me."
Emma nodded as she breathe heavily started walking into the diner, but Berta stopped her warning her if she doesn't remain calm then she will take action. Emma noted how protective Berta is of her, but doesn't know if it part of the job or because she cares for Regina more than she should.
Regina finally finish ate her burger and drank feeling a lot better, but needs Emma's magic as she looked up at Emma walking carefully in the diner, "Regina, I am sorry for bursting you like that. I was out of the line, but I promise I will remain calm no matter what you tell me."
Emma sat down again watching her clean out the plate as Regina nodded then Berta slip besides Regina then she asked, "Your Majesty, are you ok?"
Regina trying to breathe nodded, "I am ok, Berta. Thank you."
Emma doesn't like how they interacting because she wants to be the one comforting and to be there for her, but she sees that lately Berta was the one who haven't left her like she has. She realizes that she was angry at herself for causing the mistrust in Regina.
"Regina, please…. I will do anything for you trust me again. I want to be there for you. Please let me help you." Emma pleading with puppy dog eyes.
Regina cleared her throat then started to explain, "Red Queen is working with King Arthur and Queen of Hearts. I know this because Queen of Hearts have been teaching Red Queen magic; as a result using Berta's daughter, Red Queen took some kind of potion with my blood that was given from Queen of Hearts. It is a potion that makes me intoxicated and couldn't resist Berta when I smell her. It makes me get into her body when I couldn't control myself."
Emma looked between Berta and Regina and stood up yelled at Berta pushed her away, "Get away from her!" Berta fell onto the floor, "I knew I shouldn't trust you!"
Regina was shocked when it happens so fast, "Berta!"
Emma was confused, "Why are you still protecting her?"
Berta nodded while getting up, "You're right you shouldn't trust me, but Regina believes in me when no one else would. I am going to prove it to her when we get to Wonderland."
Emma doesn't like the sound of that, "What do you mean? Why does that sound like you are putting Regina in danger?"
Regina answered the question for Berta, "Red Queen promises Berta that if she brings me to her then she will give her potion to be free of me and her daughter. So I have to confront both Red Queen and Queen of Hearts while Berta and Daniel is there. Daniel was the message, remember?"
Emma started to freak out, "No, Regina! They will kill you. No … I am not letting you."
Regina tries to calm her because she needs her to remain calm, "Emma, dear please remain calm. You don't know that. We can make a plan to create a deception and besides you don't know that."
Emma stood closer holding Regina's hands, "I am not losing you again, Regina. I lost you few times before and I cannot imagine the life without you…. I am not losing you."
Regina hugged her softly, "My love, you are not going to lose me."
Emma held her tightly for the first time as she felt her embrace as long as she can. Emma felt something different about Regina like this is her Regina before Dark One, "Now are you going to tell me why you are eating burger instead of salad like you usually eat?"
Regina smiled, "the reason I was more heart broken than usually because I am not Dark One anymore. I am pregnant. I felt like you will do this to me and our unborn child again by choosing Hook over me again."
Emma backed away shocked looking up and down, "How is it you're not Dark One anymore? Are you sure you are really pregnant?"
Regina was hurt by her questions as she sighed, "That night and the following morning, as you should know true love can break any spell. You did something to me, remember the glow of bright blue light?"
Emma nodded trying to take it all in.
Regina continued biting her, "See, I have never gave to Berta because I gave myself all to you while you ran off to Hook. That was when I got scared believing you would go back to Hook leaving me high and dry, so I went ballistic on you."
Emma understood as she thought hormones but didn't say anything. She pulled her closer hugging her tightly, "I am sorry, babe. I made one mistake. I acknowledge I messed up big time, but I would never leave you and do that to you again. I love you, you own my heart."
Regina hugged her, "Why I am pregnant and not you?"
Emma shrugged, "I guess because you are more nurturing mother than I am."
Regina looked offended, "Did you just said I'm bored?"
Emma looked at her, "Will you stop twisting my words? You are amazing mom to Henry and Regma. I couldn't ask a better parent for Henry than you. You set values and morals into them. You supported their interest and goals. You respect their autonomy, thoughts and feelings. You protected them from harming themselves and you put them first. That is a nurtured mother."
Regina scowled her fingering her, "If you do this one more time …"
Emma stopped her, "I won't, Regina. I want you for the rest of my life. You will always have me, I promise" hugging her again, so you are really pregnant?" pointing at the burger, "that would mean you need my magic?"
Regina nodded, "I am pregnant, but you're not off the hook. I am milking this as long as I can."
Emma laughed putting her arms up, "That is fine. You're the queen." Emma put her hands on Regina's abdomen as white aura of magic spreading from her fingers into hers as she kissed her cheek carefully. Regina felt full of energy again and her magic is back to normal. "Wow you are really pregnant with my kid. I can feel her as I touched your belly."
Regina rolled her eyes as she sat back down magically filled the cup with water then drank it.
Emma carefully warned without upsetting her, "You not supposed to do magic, babe."
Regina tilt as she shot her a look.
Emma sat next to her as Emma told Berta to sit across from her, but Berta left to give them privacy and decided to go to Regina's mansion to wait for her, "So what is the plan?"
Regina spoke up, "We are going to Land of Oz first to find Arya then go to Wonderland. Berta will lead us from there to Red Queen which I am assuming if we go Queen of Hearts first then Red Queen will already be there waiting for all of us."
Emma tries again, "Regina, you are not going to Wonderland. I can go with my parents instead."
Regina with her eyes crossed, "Oh no, I am going. If I do not go then Berta, my biological daughters and Storybrooke will be at put in danger. I cannot do that to them. Besides I need the last lamp from Red Queen, so I have to go."
Emma listens trying to convince, "You are not Dark One anymore."
Regina shrugged, "they don't know that. As far they are concern, they think I'm helpless little girl."
Emma sighed, "I am not going to win this, am I?"
Regina laughed, "That why I have you on my side to make sure nothing happens to me."
Emma was unsatisfied, but nodded, "Fine. You are not doing anything without my say so."
Regina looked up glazed into her eyes, "Who made you to be in charge?"
Emma sighed again, "Regina, come on. You are having my baby, at least I have some say in this."
Regina drank her cup of water again, "Fine. I won't do anything you do not approve of."
Emma found herself humorless at her sarcasm wrapping around her affectionately, "Babe, I am serious."
Regina nodded, "I know, Emma. I promise I will not put myself in danger. That is why I am depending on you" kissed her cheek softly, "I'll see you tomorrow. Go sleep and I'll cook breakfast for all of us in the morning."
Emma got sad that she cannot go home with her, but she knows Regina is not ready, so she respected her boundary. Emma got out and nodded, "Alright. I'll see you in the morning, but if Berta touch my wife, I will kill her."
Regina looked up, "I am not your wife, Emma. Not according to you and the State of Maine."
Emma crouched down as her hands on the table facing Regina closely then remembered the ring in her pocket, "I was wrong. And you're right as you always are, I do not need paper to tell me you're my wife. From now on, I will always be completely confident with no doubt when it comes to you. I will never do that again to you. No matter what for instance if we have forgotten our memories or the curse takes over again, I promise I will find you again. We will always find each other. I may not be sure of other things as I have stated, but there is only one thing I am sure of and that is you, the love of my life."
Regina's eyes shoot up, "So now I am love of your life, but not before?"
Emma tries again assertively, "Regina, you have always been love of my life and I'll prove it every day. I am allowed to have one moment of uncertainly because the divorce is hard on me, but I come to realize that it is the best decision I have ever made because I want to be with you for the rest of my life. You are the person I am meant to be with, not Hook."
Regina nodded, "I do understand, but it will take time Emma. I never needed one moment of uncertainly about you because no one else makes me feel the way you do. It hurts that you had one moment to think that someone else other than me is your happy ending. That moment I felt I wasn't good enough for you. I know it is not easy, but guess what it isn't easy for me either!"
Emma sighed heavily as she closed her eyes then faced her again, "I am sorry I made you feel that way. I didn't mean to. I have no excuses when it comes to Hook, but you have no idea how much more you are to me. If I can take it back then I would. You are amazingly enough."
Regina smiled swallowing her throat, "I just need time, Emma."
Emma nodded then smiled, "Take all the time you need, but I am not leaving you. I am not going anywhere, babe."
Emma left then Regina teleported herself back to the mansion. Regina started looking for Berta, "Berta, where are you?"
Berta groggily woke up, "I am in your room, Your Majesty."
Regina went to her room and was surprised to see Berta sleeping in her bed, but dismiss it as she changed her silk pajamas. She excited slip under the covers next to Berta finally be able to sleep for the first time in months as she is exhausted from deep discussion with Emma.
Berta sleepily spoke up as she moved closer to Regina, "Your bed feels so comfortable that I will never get out of this bed."
Regina laughed, "That is good. It means you will be sleeping well tonight." Regina noticed that she is trying to snuggle against her then decides she will allow it since she will never see her again after Wonderland.
Berta looked up into her warm eyes, "I will miss you more than anybody I have ever met."
Regina smiled as she smoothed her face as she couldn't help but smell her, "You tell anybody this, I will deny it, but you will be missed too. Thank you for being there for me when Emma couldn't. I will be forever graceful for you." Her smell is so strong against her nose, Regina thought as she tries to breathe. Regina kissed her deeply and romantically like they will never kiss again and Berta responded as she pulled Regina closer. They both explored their mouth as they slipped their tongues in. Berta carefully slid her fingers under her silk pajamas hearing Regina moaned through her lips. Berta wanted to touch her before she lives, wanting to remember everything about Regina including her own skin. "Let me touch you, Regina."
Regina frowned as she touched her face again kissing her aggressively, "You know I cannot, Berta."
Berta tries again kissing her back, "Let me touch you, only your chest area and nowhere else. I promise. I just want to see you. Please, Your Majesty"
Regina knew that Berta wanted this because they will never see each other, so she grabbed Berta hands letting her feel her skin and her breast as she groaned. Berta kissed her soundly as she cupped her breast flicking her nipples. Berta never felt so good against Regina's skin then decided to kiss her chest and shortly sucking her breast hearing Regina moaning. Berta is picturing and remembering every inch of her skin and her moans even it is brief. "You feel so good, Your Majesty. So smooth."
Regina smiled as she felt Berta mouthing hungrily on her, but Regina with control over the situation pulled Berta up as she put down her pajamas kissed her softly on the lips this time. Berta offered her to touch her, but she declined because she never wanted to touch Berta in the first place. Regina loves Emma so much that she only wants Emma to be sleeping and waking up next to her.
"Go to sleep, Berta. You will be fine. You will be finally free of me and Red Queen to be with your daughter." Regina wrapped around Berta to comfort her.
Berta became depressed, "I do not want to be free of you. I wish you could go with me."
Regina nodded, "I know you do, but I want Emma. I want to grow old with her. I am having her child. I know I need time from her, but she is my world. Believe it or not, my heart craves for Emma. She's my baby. There is no one else I want to be, but with her."
Berta doesn't know why she is surprised at her confession again, "You really do love her."
Regina kissed her forehead, "I am sorry that I couldn't love you the way you love me. You will find love someday out there. Someone will be crazy about you and do all those kinky things you like.
