Chapter 9, Regina POV
It was a surprise to see my little sister just run into Jefferson's arms like that. I haven't had the time to put much thought into her past and I wasn't sure if I wanted to. It seemed like a dark and scary place, but seeing my sister so happily running into a mad mans arms, made me not wanting to know what happened. It didn't matter anyways, it was the past and the only thing that counted was the present.
I pulled the two apart when Jefferson pulled my sister closer to himself "That's quite enough, pervert" I snapped towards the man and pulled the teenage girl behind me. Dakota didn't fight back, she never seemed to fight or seemed to show any resistance. I knew what it was, I knew the signs of someone who was broken by my mother.
Jefferson cleared his throat and looked up at me "Pervert? We are merely friends, aren't we Princess?" he said with a cheeky smile.
"You don't call someone who is just your friend Princess and honestly, it is disgusting that you do. Can't you get a woman your own age instead of lusting after some teenager?!" I said, anger clear in my voice.
"I am not lusting after your sister! She could be my daughter for gods sake. I call her Princess because thats how I met her. As the princess of Wonderland!" Jefferson replied, then he turned to Dakota. "How is Romeo?" he asked.
And the next thing I knew was that my sister was running out of the room with tears streaming down her face. "Get the pervert out of my house" I told Emma before following my sister.
