A/N: Hello my darlings! This is a short chapter, mostly because I really couldn't think of anything else to put in it. I hope you enjoy it anyway.

A big thank-you to everyone who reviewed, and to Maria...can you guess where I got the inspiration from baby? ;)

CHAPTER 16

Emma slowly stood from her seat, locking eyes with the enraged queen. "Babe, please...calm down. This isn't worth it."

Regina only stared at her for several tense moments, "No. They...They said such horrible things."

"I know, but if you attack them, it'll just make things worse."

"But it's the only way they'll listen to me."

The blonde approached her slowly, "Please just stop. You might seriously hurt them."

Regina only sneered, "Good. These bastards deserve every bit of pain I give them." She suddenly slammed the doors of the Town Hall shut with magic, locking everyone inside. Her sinister, cackling laughter echoed through the room.

Snow stood bravely, hands by her sides, "Regina, stop! This isn't right!"

Emma glanced at her mother, then her girlfriend. "Regina, all you're doing is giving people more reason to hate us."

The queen looked at her, staring into her emerald eyes before her gaze softened. She swallowed, her voice barely above a whisper, "Okay." Within seconds the thick smoke outside disappeared and the thunder stopped.

Emma ran over to her girlfriend, embracing her. "Hey," she whispered.

Regina rested her head into the crook of the blonde's shoulder, "Thank you."

"Hey," Leroy asked in annoyance, "Can one of you unlock the doors?"

Regina rolled her eyes and waved a hand, the Town Hall doors unlocking and opening with a 'whoosh.' Everyone but Emma started to walk out, leaving the couple alone in the Town Hall, still embracing.

"Hey babe," Emma whispered in the brunette's ear, "Do you mind if I come to your office with you? I'm hungry."

OOO

Regina gasped when her girlfriend kissed her as soon as the door to her office was locked. "I...I thought you said you were hungry."

Emma licked her lips, "I am," she smirked, "But not for food."

Regina's eyes darkened in realization. "Oh really, Miss Swan?" she purred. The brunette drew a sharp breath in surprise as she was slammed against the wall, a harsh kiss pressed to her lips. Wh-What?

Emma grinned, mischief in her eyes, and spun her around to face the wall. She forced both of the mayor's hands behind her back and grabbed the handcuffs hanging from her belt. "You know Madam Mayor," the handcuffs snapped around her wrists, "I didn't really like how you lost your temper in the meeting. I think you need to be punished."

Regina gritted her teeth, "You think you're being funny, don't you Swan? Well I'm not amused."

A hand struck her covered ass.

The queen yelped in shock at the sting, "Emma…" she snarled in warning.

"No way Madam Mayor," the blonde taunted, "I don't take the orders right now. You're being punished."

Regina only growled in response. "You will pay for this, Miss Swan."

"Oh really?"

The older woman smirked, hearing the lust in Emma's voice. She's baiting me... she wants The Evil Queen's wrath, then fine. That's just what she'll get.

Emma's hand struck her ass again.

The blonde gently massaged the spot she had hit, "You know Madam Mayor...I think I need to get more into this. Hold on a second." She surrounded herself in swirling black smoke, and when it cleared her clothes had changed.

She wore an all black outfit, with bright red lipstick. Her hair was tied up into a tight bun and was a shade lighter.

Regina raised a thin brow, recognizing the attire. "Well...nice to see you Dark One."

Emma's face was expressionless, "Hello." Her hand gripped Regina's ass, her nails digging into the cloth covering it as well as the skin underneath. "I expected you to be more polite than this, Regina. Try greeting me with some respect."

The handcuffs fell to the floor.

Emma gasped, taken off guard as she was forced to her knees. The tie in her hair was pulled free, allowing her hair to fall around her shoulders. He head was snapped up, and she was forced to stare into the dark, menacing and lust-filled eyes of Regina.

The brunette's eyes suddenly flickered to the wall clock, "Oh dear...it seems like it's time for both of us to return to work. Nevermind."

Emma's eyes widened, "You...You can't be serious?" No! No no no! But...but I'm so wet!

"I'm afraid I am, dear."

The blonde stood, turning back into her usual clothes.

Regina grinned darkly, sending shivers down her spine. "But mark my words...I shall have my revenge, Miss Swan."
