We are slowly coming to an end of this fanfic. I hope you are enjoying the ride. This chapter has one big plot twist. Enjoy reading. I will update soon again. Please, let me know what you think in a review. I really appreciate every single fav, follow and review. You are amazing, thank you for your support.

When I started writing this story I didn't have a beta-reader. Now I have Roni and we are working together on Blind Love. Even I can tell the difference between this story and Blind Love when it's checked by a native speaker and all the mistakes are corrected. Otherwise I hope my English isn't that bad and that you will forgive me for the mistakes I've made in this fanfic.

Enjoy, happy reading, friends. Long live SwanQueen.


The door to Regina's bedroom flew open and two women in a passionate embrace slowly walked in, taking careful steps to not fall over each other's feet. The tension between them was unbearable.

On their way up the stairs few moments ago Regina couldn't stand it any more. Turning around she stepped down one stair to put the inner fire out and feed the hunger she felt for the blond woman. Her body gently landed on Emma's pressing her against the wall, her fingers running through Emma's hair. Emma returned the affection by pulling Regina's head closer to hers. Their lips met in a deep kiss and soon they both were completely lost in each other. Hands exploring, tongues interlacing, breaths quickening, hearts beating faster with every single touch on the skin.

Regina broke the kiss to move a little bit lower to explore Emma's neck. She covered every bit of the neck skin with soft kisses. Reaching Emma's ear she whispered seductively „I want you." Regina pulled away not giving Emma any satisfaction just yet. Taking Emma's hand into hers Regina drew Emma forward and up the stairs again.

Now it was Emma who caught up with Regina and jumped right in front of the brunette to steal more kisses and touches. They both were desperate to get a taste of the other one. It was stronger than any of them expected.

„And I want you," Emma whispered into Regina's ear. They continued with kissing while walking upstairs and towards the bedroom.

Helping each other out of their clothes they soon ended up on Regina's bed wearing only underwear. Their bodies brushed against each other, one synchronized movement followed by another. As if their bodies were two pieces of puzzle perfectly matching together. Regina felt dominant and was on top, Emma lied on her back enjoying every part of the brunette's body on her own.

Pulling Regina's hair away from her face Emma looked deeply into the brown orbs. Regina slowly lowered her head placing a soft kiss on Emma's lips. Not breaking the contact she took Emma's lower lip between her teeth and teased it by biting it gently. The woman laying under her shivered.

Everything seemed to be working out well, Regina was happy for getting what she wanted, and Emma was just enjoying the presence of the brunette.

Regina's fingers trailed over Emma's belly and down in between her legs. When Regina was about to make Emma moan from the touch, the door flew open once more. Regina jumped away from Emma and Emma intuitively covered herself with the blanket.

Cora Mills is standing in the doorway, hands on her hips looking pissed. Regina was already on her feet searching for all the parts of her clothing that was scattered on the floor.

„Mother? What are you doing here? How did you get inside?" Regina asked to start a conversation and somehow ease the heaviness of this situation.

„I have keys, remember?" Cora answered looking from her daughter to Emma. The blond woman was still sat down on the bed as if she was pinned to the spot.

„I need to speak with you!" Cora demanded. Regina took Emma's clothes from the floor and placed them on the bed next to the blond woman.

„I am sorry. Will you excuse us?" she apologized. She really felt sad about sending Emma away because she was very excited about spending the night with her. Now when her mother interrupted them in the middle of the best part of their play the only thing she wanted to do was to run away. There was nothing worse than being interrupted in the middle of reaching the climax. Emma grabbed her clothes and left the room to get dressed in the bathroom which she saw earlier right opposite Regina's bedroom.

„I will call you a taxi," Regina offered to Emma already picking up her cellphone and dialling the number.

„Thank you. I will see you soon. Yes?" Emma whispered hoping that Cora wouldn't hear her.

Regina only nodded kissing Emma on her cheek before she let her leave.

Emma stepped outside to wait for her taxi leaving Regina all alone to deal with her mother. There was something that bothered her more than the fact that Cora interrupted them. She closed her eyes trying to imagine living Regina's life, being under control all the time and having to discuss everything with her mother. She shivered at the thought of Regina having to justify herself to Cora.

Taxi arrived sooner than Emma expected. The blond woman sat down saying the direction of where she wanted to be taken. She closed the door and while the taxi was slowly leaving Regina's house Emma was thinking about what just happened. She couldn't believe that she actually was about to sleep with another woman for money, that she was about to make love to a woman who she barely knew. She literally was close to giving up her body, her pride and surrender to Regina Mills in order to pay the debt not with money, but by sharing the most private part of herself.

Going back to the moments when she felt Regina's lips on hers, when she felt the soft skin against hers, when Regina's voice was whispering into her ears she realized something. What she felt wasn't disgust, it was love. She loved every single thing Regina did or said. She loved every part of her body. She loved her. Emma's fingers landed on her lips. Remembering the way Regina kissed her Emma closed her eyes. She wondered what would have happened if Cora didn't interrupt them.

Does it mean that the debt is unpaid? Will Regina ask for another night to finish what they have started? Will Emma have enough strength to go through this again?

Her mind went back to the main reason why she accepted Regina's offer. Henry, her sick son who needed money for the treatment. Emma smiled when an image of her son appeared in front of her eyes. The taxi was taking her to him and she couldn't wait to hug him. It was already 2 am but Emma was confused, sad, scared and uncertain of what was going to come next. She just needed to hold her son even if he was asleep.

„Can you explain this?" Cora pointed to the messy sheets on her daughter's bed. Regina went to fix the bed sheets taking some time to think about what she should say.

„I told you, mother. This is all part of the game," Regina lied because the blond woman was no longer just an entertainment to her, she was more than that even she had hard time admitting it to herself. For now she needed to sound as certain as she could to please her mother that there was nothing in between her and her career.

„I thought that if miss Swan had scars on her body you wouldn't like her with your sense for accuracy and perfection," Cora said making Regina jump.

„Is there something you would like to tell me, mother?" Regina asked walking towards her mother to look her in the eyes. Yes, Cora could see through Regina's walls and feel her insecurities but Regina had her ways to look through her mother as well. One look in her eyes and she was able to say if there was some hidden agenda.

„I only want what's best for you and not it's being the best doctor in Boston," Cora said stroking Regina's cheek with her fingers. Regina stepped away from her mother looking suspiciously at her.

„No, please, this can't be! You didn't, did you?" Regina couldn't catch her breath. She could be sneaky, she could be evil, but she would never hurt anyone physically. Now she suspected her mother from causing Emma troubles.

„I didn't .. what?" Cora asked playing dumb.

„You didn't cause the accident Emma got into, did you?" Regina asked directly catching her breath at the thought of her mother being a killer. Well, almost a killer.

„As I said before, I don't want anything or anyone to take away the chance of being the best doctor from you," Cora repeated what she said few moments ago. Regina was certain that her mother was the one who should be blamed for what had happened to Emma.

„I can't believe what you did, mother! I knew you were malicious but what's enough is enough. And trust me, this is enough even for me!" Regina stood up against her mother and raising her hand she pointed to the main door.

„Please, leave me alone!" she said literally pushing her mother out her apartment. Cora tried to fight back but Regina was strong, even stronger when she was angry. Now she had every right to be angry at her own mother for endangering the life of the woman she loved.

„And believe me, if police comes to investigate Emma's accident I won't hold back. I will tell them the truth!" Regina added leading her mother down the stairs towards the main door.

„No, you can't! I am your mother!" Cora defended herself, tears running down her cheeks.

„The maternal instinct is a very strong feeling, I believe, but mothers don't kill their kids' potential lovers just because they don't fit in their vision of the future!" Regina was furious.

Regina finally managed to lead her mother to the door. Cora was fighting and begging her daughter to listen to her but Regina was fed up with her. Giving her mother her last look she opened the door and pushed Cora outside.

„Goodbye, mother!" with these last words Regina closed the door. She leaned against it trying to hold back the tears that were coming. Something inside her moved, something shifted. She slowly started feeling the huge impact her mother had on her and how her education affected her.

It made her the way she was now, it formed her into the woman she actually has never wanted to be.

She didn't blame her mother, she didn't have a nice life herself but the way she was risen by her parents the same way she has risen Regina. Another wall around her heart cracked open and Regina was on a journey to get to know herself again, to be her true self without being formed according to someone's idea of her. An image of Emma and Henry appeared in front of her closed eyes and her lips crocked into a smile. The first thing she needed to do was to talk to Emma and tell her everything. Now when she realized how much she was controlled and led by her own mother she wanted to make amends with her, with Henry, to explain why she behaved the way she did.

„If only you could forgive me, Emma," Regina whispered in the silence of her flat walking the steps towards her bedroom to at least get some rest before her next shift.
