When Regina woke the next day, the sun was already high on the sky. Her headache was almost completely gone and she was ready – or as ready as she'd ever be – to face the new day.
"Good morning, it's good to see you finally awake," Maleficent said from a chair in the corner of the room, slightly startling the sleepy woman.
Regina sat up in her bed, glancing at the blonde. "Good morning," she replied with a smile. "You haven't been here the whole night, have you?"
Maleficent raised a brow. "Oh but I was. And don't forget the whole morning. It's past noon already."
"Past noon?" Regina hurriedly scrambled out of her bed and to her wardrobe. "I'm too late for work! Not to mention that I didn't even appear at the office yesterday."
When Regina looked for something to wear, Maleficent not so covertly checked out her butt in the lacy black panties that she wore under a scandalous short negligee.
She remembered how she used to bury her fingernails in her butt cheeks and felt desire start to pool between her legs.
"You're the mayor," she got up and stood in front of Regina. She'd always drawn her close, even when she first made her entrance in her life. "And you can and will take today off. Just call in sick or tell them you'll be working from home."
The closeness to Maleficent didn't go unnoticed by Regina's body and she felt her skin tingle under the blue eyed gaze. Heat rose up in her face.
She coughed and took a step back.
"I'll get dressed and meet you down in the kitchen," she promised. At Mal's stare she added, "and I will stay at home today."
The dragon nodded and stepped out of her bedroom, leaving Regina room to breathe.
The mayor quickly dressed and after a look at her face in the mirror applied a band aid to the small graze on her temple. It was just a minor cut – she would just wait until it healed on its own.
When she got downstairs a cup of coffee was already waiting for her on the kitchen counter. "Thank you," she said to Maleficent before leading the woman into the living room where they both sat down on the couch.
"I guess I have some explaining to do," the dragon put her own cup of coffee on the table, turning to Regina. "It would be easier though if I knew what exactly you wanted to know."
Regina understood. She nodded and thought for a moment, thinking about the questions she most wanted to get the answers to. "I want to know when you knew that you were pregnant. I want to know if you knew right away that she was mine and why you did not tell me about the pregnancy. And I want to know why I could've even gotten you pregnant at all. I am a woman Mal. We both are..."
Maleficent lightly chuckled, took a sip of her coffee and thought about Regina's questions. They were pretty much what she'd expected. She took a deep breath.
"It was the night after I threw you out when I noticed I was pregnant," she began. "It must've happened during our last night together." She cringed at the pained look in Regina's eyes. Clearly, the younger woman was remembering how that night had ended. And she couldn't help but remember herself.

Flashback

Maleficent jumped out of the bed as if she'd been burned. She hadn't meant for the young woman to develop feelings beside maybe friendship for her. She'd known it was a mistake when she'd first taken her young lover to bed but somehow she couldn't stop herself from doing the same mistake again and again. Sex with Regina had been addictive. The woman was still so very naive and innocent when she first took her in front of the fireplace, right after getting back from putting Aurora under the sleeping curse. She'd been so ecstatic then, that she didn't deny her body what it most wanted: Regina writhing against her. Maleficent, just as most dragons, was a sexual being. Expressing herself with words had never been her forte. She was skilled with her hands though... She was a great teacher and she soon discovered that Regina was an eager and quick student. Regina, the young woman whose first had been a man who didn't love her, who'd been as old as her father, who'd neither been considerate of her feelings nor her inexperience. It had been so easy to make her come and easier to get her to come back to her day after day. Her little heart had been lusting for every bit of affection – however rough – that it could get.
She shouldn't have let it happen but now it was too late and the woman had fallen in love with her. Or rather thought she loved her. That was a difference. Maleficent believed that no one could ever truly love her, especially not a young girl like Regina. She was only half-human, the other half of her was dragon. She'd lived more than two centuries and with each year she'd become even more bitter. No one could ever truly love a dragon.
"Get out of my castle," she dangerously growled at the naked girl sitting in her bed, her eyes turning green with rage. How could fate hurt her like this? Make her hope for love once again? Oh no, this time she wouldn't fall for it... She'd loved Briar Rose and the girl had said she loved her – but it were all lies to lure her in, to make her believe herself in false safety. They had tried to take away her dragon's breath and in a way they'd succeeded. Not because they were able to take it but because she let it flicker out in years of sorrow. It was almost 40 years ago now but the betrayal still sat deep in her heart. It still stung. Just like an arrow that had once stuck between her shoulder blades.
Regina was looking at her with wide fearful eyes and she knew that this was it. Now she saw her for what she really was, a heartless monster. Good.
"Get the hell out!" she yelled once more but the girl didn't listen. Instead she ran to her and pressed her naked body up against her own, making Maleficent doubt her decision.
"Please, Mal," tears were streaming down her beautiful face when she pleaded with her. "Please don't send me away. You're all I have left!"
She sobbed, her tears soaking Maleficent's large breasts. The girl's agony was almost too much to bear. Almost…
She roughly pushed the girl from her and she fell to the floor.
"But I…" Regina's upper lip trembled. "I love you. You are my true love. It's not..."
"Get out now before I rip you to pieces," the dragon circled her, baring her teeth in a cruel grimace. Talking to her about true love. Who did she think she was?! "GET. OUT."
And with a last glance at the woman she loved, Regina disappeared. She came back 7 months later, taking the Dark Curse from her, a changed woman. The innocent girl had turned into a cold monster. She'd become her.

Present

She forced herself to go on as the guilt for what she had done to Regina flooded her.
"Dragons know early on that they are pregnant because we can lay an egg instead of carrying the child," she explained to Regina. "I transformed a week later and laid the egg. I couldn't bring myself to keep the child with me, inside of my human body… At first I even thought about destroying the egg. I thought it was just another way of fate hitting me in the face," Maleficent lowered her head in shame. "I was about to shatter it when I heard the faintest heartbeat. And I couldn't bring myself to do it anymore." She looked up again, tears now glistening in her eyes. "I finally saw the child as the gift she was and swore to protect it with my life. She was everything I had left of you, Regina."
Regina had silently listened, holding her breath when she heard that she'd almost killed their child. But now she was confused. "I don't understand," she said. "You banished me from your fortress, why would you care if she was mine?"
"Because I DID love you Regina," Maleficent admitted and Regina gasped at the words she'd always wanted to hear from the other woman. "I loved you with all my heart but I only noticed after it was already too late. I had let fear of being hurt again guide me and it cost me you. You want to know why I knew this was our child? I knew because you were the first person I shared myself with since Briar Rose. I knew because dragons can only fall pregnant if they've found true love. The sex of the partners doesn't matter. Dragons are magical babies, the product of true love only. This is why there never were many of us - because not many people find it in themselves to love a monster."
"True love," Regina whispered. "I…"
"I still love you Regina," the blonde took her hands and looked deep into the dark eyes. "I love you so much it hurts. I know I don't deserve another chance but..."
Soft lips crashing onto her own successfully shut her up. Regina kissed her with all the feelings that had clustered in her heart over the years. All the pain, all the sorrow and anger but also great love and passion. When finally the tip of her tongue ran over her lips, Maleficent readily granted her entrance. Mal couldn't hold back the moan that escaped her lips when their tongues finally met in their mouths, battling for dominance. She felt Regina's hands travel under her shirt, her fingers caressing her abdomen. Maleficent broke the kiss and latched her lips onto Regina's throat, sucking at her pulse point. The younger woman responded with a sharp intake of breath and straddled her hips, pressing herself up against her.
"Bedroom," she managed to say and Maleficent focused long enough to teleport them to Regina's bed. Regina glanced at the door, sealing it with her magic, before she pushed her down on her back, still straddling her hips. The hands under Mal's shirt wandered higher and slipped under her bra, gently stroking her hard nipples.
Maleficent groaned at the familiar touch she'd craved so much, bucking her hips and wrapping her arms around her back, pulling the woman even tighter into her own body.
"Gods, I missed you," Regina whispered with a breathy moan rubbing herself against the other woman. The friction was making it hard to concentrate but eventually the dragon managed to make their clothes disappear. The feeling of a naked Regina pressed against her own naked body was almost too much to bear.
"Regina," she mumbled, looking deep into her lover's eyes. Her own had changed to a glowing green and she felt the dragon's fire awakening inside of her. "I need to… I need to mark you as mine, the dragon demands it."
A single tear slid down Regina's cheek. She'd waited for this moment for so long. For the moment Maleficent marked her as hers, claiming her and bonding them forever with the powerful magic of the ancient dragons.
"Please," she whimpered, ready to be claimed. There was nothing she needed to consider, nothing to think about. For her, Maleficent had always been it.
A shudder ran through Maleficent and she felt her juices run down her inner thigh.
Regina was completely giving herself away to her. Not many dragons were fortunate enough to find their soulmate, the one person that completed the dragon in ways nothing else could.
"Are you sure," she asked Regina who only nodded.
"I have never been more sure about anything, Mal. This, you, is what I want."
Maleficent felt her heart flutter at Regina's words. She flipped them around so she was on top and slowly slid down Regina's body, leaving gentle kisses on her neck, her belly and her breasts. Then she bared her fangs and buried them deep in Regina's right breast, her mouth engulfing her erect nipple.
Regina cried out in pain before bittersweet passion took over, a fire running through her body, ignited by the mark. A soft golden glow engulfed their entangled bodies for a second. They were bonded.
Maleficent gently licked the drops of blood away and then started sucking on the hard nipple. "Mine," she growled when she slowly started ascending down her love's body. She finally positioned herself between Regina's legs and let her tongue lick through the slit agonizingly slow.
"Mal," Regina cried out with need, clasping the bedsheets and pushing her cunt into Maleficent's face.
"You smell so good," Maleficent drawled out when Regina's legs wrapped around her back, pulling her even closer. Her nose was now completely buried in Regina's pussy. She moved it through the wet slit before she started suckling on the woman's clit, making Regina cry out in pleasure. The woman's juices were already overflowing and finally the blonde entered her cunt with two fingers. She slid them in deep, then she totally withdrew them.
"Mal," Regina begged in sweet agony. "Please. I need you to..."
"You need me to what?" Mal asked, blowing on Regina's clit, making her bulge underneath her.
"I need you to fuck me," Regina managed between moans. "Please Mal."
"Your wish is my pleasure your majesty," Maleficent teased, plunging three fingers in without forewarning.
Regina's walls tightened around her, trembling with arousal.
"I love it when you say 'fuck'," the dragon muttered, pumping her fingers in and out fast and hard. When she felt Regina near the edge she stilled her movements and curled her index finger.
"Fuck!" Regina groaned as she came, her walls clenching around her lover's digits. "Maleficent."
The dragon left her fingers inside her pussy until the walls around them started to relax again. Then she slowly withdrew them, pressed her thumb to her clit once more, making Regina curse like a drunken pirate, and finally held them out for Regina to taste herself. The younger woman drew her closer and sucked on Maleficent's fingers, watching her closely as she did so.
"My turn," she growled out before turning them around and pressing her thigh against Maleficent's throbbing center, earning herself a strangled moan.
"Oh I'm not quite done with you I'm afraid, Gina", the blond dragon witch chuckled and turned them over again. The mayor struggled against her but she was no match for Maleficent's inhuman strength. Taking her time, Maleficent peppered her face with kisses, making her laugh.
"For a long time I was afraid I'd never hear your beautiful laugh again," the blonde stopped in her tracks, leaned on her elbow and closely took in the woman's features.
"You Regina, are clearly the fairest of them all, in and out."
Regina, sprawled out naked beneath her, was taking her breath away.
The raven-haired beauty blushed. "Kiss me?" dark eyes met blue.
Maleficent grinned and complied, connecting their lips in a gentle kiss that spoke volumes. "I'll do more than just kissing you baby," she promised before leaning in for another kiss.

"Mom?" Henry's voice rang through the manor and Regina softly chuckled.
"Boy's got great timing," Maleficent muttered under her breath, pouting. Then she made to get up and dress but Regina pulled her back down on her.
"Later, Mal," she whispered into her ear before nibbling on her earlobe, sending shivers down her spine. "Later I'll make love to you. We have all the time in the world now."
Regina gave her a last peck before magically dressing the two of them, looking apologetic. "My son's waiting and I bet he has some questions of his own."
Maleficent nodded. She understood. "I'll meet you later then?"
"Oh no, you're not going anywhere," Regina entwined their fingers together earning a puzzled look from her lover. "He'll be happy for me, Mal. For both of us," she said with confidence. "And I'm not keeping you a secret as if I was ashamed. I love you."
Maleficent's cheeks turned crimson. "Okay," she just mumbled. "I love you, too."

Henry was waiting in the kitchen when his mom and Maleficent finally entered the bright room, holding hands and happy smiles on their faces. The dragon did look a little bit uncomfortable though, he noticed.
"Mom," he ran to his mother and hugged her. "I'm glad you're okay. Ma told me what happened."
"I'm perfect, Henry," Regina hugged him back, not letting go of the blonde's hand in the process.
They pulled apart and Henry grinned knowingly, looking at the joined hands.
"I'm also glad you found each other," he smiled at both women. He had grown so much in the last two years, both in size and character.
"So you're alright with this…" Maleficent couldn't believe that the boy would just right away accept her. "With me and your mom?"
"Sure," Henry replied. "Why wouldn't I be?"
Both Mills were looking at her now, waiting for an answer.
"I'm... I am a dragon and a villain… I'm also over 200 years older than your mother and..."
"As long as you make her happy, I don't care," the boy simply said and Regina beamed at him. She was so proud of her son in this moment. "And I learned that villains often just made some wrong decisions. They're not born evil and they can change their ways. Just like my mom," he added.
"Thank you Henry, it means a lot," Maleficent said to him, clearly touched by his kind words. Regina squeezed her hand and the two smiled at each other.
"Can you take me flying some time?" Henry asked, an excited glimmer in his brown eyes at the prospect of riding on a dragon. "I mean…"
"Sure," Maleficent said. "I actually owe Regina a little flight as well. We never got to it…" 'Because it was all about sex and magic,' her inner angel scolded her.
"Can we mom?" Henry looked at his mother, hoping she would agree. She was a little on the overprotective side sometimes.
"Okay," she just said. "We will."
Henry beamed at her.
"Will you join us at dinner tonight Henry?" Regina then asked. "I've got some news."
He nodded. "Alright. I actually just came to pick up my book tough. Rumpelstiltskin shouldn't be the first one to find the author."
"That is a good idea," Regina said to her son. "And we actually have somewhere to be as well."
"We do?" Maleficent asked her when Henry ran up the stairs.
"We do. I took the day off and now I want to spend it with you at the beach. The weather is perfect for a walk. Only if you..."
"I'd love to," the blonde pecked Regina on the cheek.
"I want to talk to Lily first tough," Regina said, looking at Mal. "Is it okay with you if I meet her alone?"
"You don't have to ask for my permission Gina," Mal chuckled. "She's your child, too. And I know you're nervous after what happened yesterday but I know she'll love you just as I do."
"Do you really think?" Regina was unsure of where they stood. Lilith's reaction had been… well...
"I don't think, I know it. Now go. I'll get us a picnic ready to take to the beach," Mal caressed Regina's cheek with her fingers before leaning in and kissing her. "Now you better go before I take you back to bed," the blonde whispered and walked into the kitchen to prepare the picnic.

"Lily, hey," Emma smiled at her friend who'd just entered the sheriff's station. She'd been doing some paperwork and was more than excited at the prospect of a break.
"I brought coffee and donuts," Lily grinned, setting down the brown paper bag she got at Granny's and sitting down on a chair next to the blonde.
"Awesome," Emma moaned and hurriedly opened the bag. "I'm starving."
Lily laughed at Emma's antics. "You always had a good appetite."
"So," Emma said already happily munching on a donut. "Did you find your father?"
Lily broke out in laughter at the question.
"I did. Sort of," she replied, still laughing.
"What do you mean 'sort of'," Emma put the half-eaten donut down, staring at her brunette friend I confusion. "He's not a rabbit or one of the dwarfs is he?"
Lily laughed even harder. "Gods no," she said. "It's Regina."
"What's Regina done now?" Emma asked, arching a brow in concern.
"Emma," Lily slowly said, waiting for the shoe to drop. "I said 'it's Regina'. She is my 'father'."
"No way!" Emma exclaimed, spitting out the sip of coffee she'd just taken. "You mean Regina as in Regina fucking mayor Mills?"
Lily nodded.
"How is that even possible?" Emma said more to herself than Lily.
"Magic, Miss Swan," Regina had walked into the police station hoping Emma knew where she would find Lily. It seemed her search had ended.
"I didn't know it was possible either," she admitted walking up to the two friends, shyly smiling at her grown daughter. "Maleficent said it has to do with her being a dragon."
"You… you're alright," Lily muttered, looking at Regina with relief. She had been concerned about the woman's wellbeing after what happened yesterday and she knew her mother had been as well. Which is why she stayed at the manor, watching her in case she had a concussion or worse.
"Course I am, dear," Regina winked at Lily, trying to erase the worried look from her face. "You didn't think a mere dragon was able to kill the Evil Queen, did you?"
"You…" Emma sat there, mouth agape at finally recognizing the resemblance of the two. "You really are her mother."
The frown on Emma's face deepened and she crinkled her nose in thought. "I swear the relations in this town get weirder with every day. You're kind of Henry's and kind of Snow's sister, which would basically make you… my aunt," Emma concluded and looked at Lily.
"This is seriously fucked up," Regina mumbled and all three broke out in hysterical laughter.
