Chapter 12

Cruella was casually sitting on a table at Granny's drinkng a cup of tea. It was now pretty obvious that she was pregnant. Her belly indeed betrayed her. She was almost nine months and unexpectidly calm.

The sound of the door made her look at it. Regina walked in with a mischievous

smile and sat on her table.

"Good Morning Madame Mayor!"Cruella exclaimed and broke her face into a smile. (Not a sincere one)

"Good morning to you too" Regina's tone was amusing. She was obviously in a good mood.

She noted Granny and without even saying it, the old lady brought Regina a cup of coffee and then quickly she returned to the bar.

"I think somebody had fun last night with sheriff handsome" she whispered as the old lady had now disappeared.

"Knock it off!" Regina tried to sound offended even if she wasn't, she did have fun with her little boy-toy and she didn't need to hide it.

"Oh come on, darling. We are the only villains in this town knowing our true identity, we can be considered as friends." Cruella whispered so no one except Regina could hear her.

"Friends?" She chuckled. "First of all, dear, you don't seem to be a villain anymore. I mean, come on! Look at yourself. You are married to a pathetic man and are nine months pregnant.."

After Regina finished her words, Cruella's expression changed completely. Her eyes grew wide open and an expression of shock was drawn in her face. She stood still for a moment closing her eyes

"Oh dear, did I hurt your feelings?" her tone was ironic. And looking at Cruella's expression Regina thought that this was indeed the truth.

"No... It's the baby!" Cruella caught her belly and tried to get up

"What is it?" Regina asked casually without understanding what was really happening.

"It's coming!" She yelled and started taking long deep breaths.

"What am I supposed to do?" Regina paniced. She had no idea from these things. She tried to help her stand. She didn't particularly care about Cruella, yet she had to do something.

"Take me to the hospital?" She exclaimed as it was the most obviously thing in the world. "And call Isaac" she breathed leaving a loud scream.


Regina did exactly as she said. The went carefully to Regina's car and drove to the hospital {Of course Regina was nagging all the time about the seats and that she would pay for it, yet Cruella didn't hear a word.}while Isaac was already there, after Regina's phone call.

The nurses put her on the bed while Isaac followed them to the room they would take her.

"Everything is gonna be fine." he was repeating over and over again holding his wife's hand. He wasn't try to calm her, he was actually trying to calm himself. He didn't even want to think what would happened if something went wrong. He tried to drop this thought but it kept coming back.

"What the hell were you thinking when you got me pregnant?" She screamed as the pain became more and more intense.

Dr Whale tried to calm her giving her some piece of advice. "Come on, take a deep breath and now push!" he was saying softly.

"Come on, love, you can do this" Isaac's eyes met hers giving her a glimpse of confidence. That was all it took to make her try harder. Cruella gave a final push and with her extremely loud scream, a faint cry sounded. After 3 hours she had finally delivered the baby and Isaac felt more relieved than he had ever been.

"You did it" Isaac bended and kiss her forehead. She left a sigh of relief and threw her head back to the pillow.

"It's a beautiful baby girl' Dr Whale said and handed the baby to Isaac.

He took her carefully in his arms and braced her head in his arm. His face had now became softer as his anxiety had been eliminated. "She is so fragile... So beautiful.." he murmured without taking his eyes of his baby daughter. "Do you want to hold her?"

The question took Cruella by surprise. Did she want to hold her? She had no idea. But before she could think clearly the little girl was already in her arms. She held her really cautiously. She didn't want to harm her. She kept looking at her for over a minute without saying a thing. Her eyes were observing her like she was some kind of new toy. She moved her hand near the baby's chest to hear her heart but before she could touch it the little girl's hand was wrapped around her finger. That touched made Cruella's heart skip a beat. A strange feeling came to haunt her. She hadn't felt like this before. This had nothing to do with what she felt for Isaac. This was different but still the same.

"I think she likes you.." Isaac whispered

"You really think so, darling?" She chuckled stroking her daughter's hand

A sincere smile answered her question. He went near and spread on of his hands to catch the other hand of the baby.

"I think she likes you too" Cruella glanced at him and their eyes met. They didn't need to say anything else. Cruella could see Isaac's happiness and she could also feel it. Moreover Isaac could feel that she was not that insecure now. She was feeling more confident about that motherhood thing.
