Chapter 5
Roran smiled and gestured for her to walk out the door first. "Ladies first." Once Emma was out in the hall, Roran followed and walked with her to the garden, asking her a few questions along the way. "So tell me, what's your kingdom like?" They'd all heard Regina's version, he wanted to hear it from a different perspective.
"It's beautiful. We have pastures upon pastures. Its very elegant inside the castle. The people of the kingdom live well and are very happy. Everyone knows everyone. My kingdom is a lot like one big happy family." Emma smiled as she walked with the Knight.
Roran glanced over at her and smiled kindly. "That sounds really nice. Beautiful too. It's a shame the queen and king want it destroyed." He said sadly. "Anyways, maybe you'll get to go back someday. If Queen Regina were going to kill you, I think she would've done it already. And she most certainly wouldn't have killed Seifer over you." Roran stopped Emma from walking any further when he spotted the queen tending to her apple tree. He cleared his throat and Regina glanced over her shoulder at him. "Your majesty, the princess wished to speak with you."
Regina turned to face them, her eyes wandering over Emma's form. "Fine. You may take your leave, Roran."
Seeing the queen in all her glory at her precious apple tree brought a smile to the soldier's lips. Once Roran left her side she stepped forward. "I hope its okay to speak with you. To be honest I don't even know what I want to say."Emma stepped forward again. "You killed your personal knight for me. You probably saved my life. I'm the queen's prisoner, yet I don't really feel like it."
Regina scowled and crossed her arms. Her plans of seducing the princess had flown out the door the day she'd captured her father. Now, now she just wanted to stay away from her. The knight could read her like no one else could, hurt her with just mere words like no one else could. She didn't understand nor like it; being drawn to her enemy's daughter. "There's no point in speaking, is there, if you don't even know what you want to talk about?" She turned back to her tree. "I'm glad you don't feel like a prisoner. As long as you stay with Roran, you may go anywhere you wish. Within reason, of course."
"I have no plans on running away. Not as long as you have my father. However, I am willing to do whatever you want if you wake him and let him free." She sighed and moved in between Regina and the tree. "What do you say?"
"You're already doing what I want, Princess." Regina's chocolate eyes met Emma's green as the blonde moved in front of her, the queen's scowl deepening. "I can't let him go. Everything is finally falling into place."
"Is this really what you want? To make a true enemy out of me? Regina, I can be your best friend or your worst enemy. Lets make a truce. We can settle all of this and maybe be able to live peacefully."
"I've known you for less than a month. Your parents and I go back decades. I can't just let it go." Regina hissed. "Plus, I know how this would go down." She said pleasantly, her tone changing drastically as she smiled vindictively and began to circle the blonde. "I'd let your father go and you'd both leave to go live happily ever after with your mother. And then, then your family would try to kick me off this throne."
"That's where you're wrong. If you ask me to stay, I'll stay. I give you my word. All I want is peace. I love the battles but I hate war. There's no point in our two kingdoms to fight when we can settle our differences. Give me a chance." When the queen came back to the front of Emma, the blonde looked at her with all sincerity.
"Why would you stay? Why would I want you to stay, hmm?" Regina asked with a perfectly arched brow, her red lips pressing together tightly as she held her head high.
"You saved my life when you could have let Seifer do anything to me. You've treated me pretty well here and maybe I can be apart of your kingdom one day to insure the safety of both. But, you wouldn't want me to stay. You're hell bent on revenge when you could live a happy life."
"What? Be the liaison between our kingdoms? My personal knight?" Regina threw her head back as she laughed. "You're wrong." She said darkly as her eyes seemed to look right through Emma. "I'll never live a happy life. It's no longer a possibility for me."
Emma stared at her unphased. "Why? Why can't you be happy? If you killed all of us, would you really be happy?" She sighed. "What happened to you, what made you the way you are?"
"Your parents." Regina snarled. "They took away everything that mattered to me." She stepped back and looked away, her body trembling slightly and her voice getting a little shaky. "I'm not going into this with you. I want you to go."
"Let me make up for it. Let me help you find your happiness, where ever that may be." She sighed. "I may be your enemy but I'm a pretty good listener." Emma just wanted peace for all and was willing to do anything to get it. "You're a beautiful, intelligent woman who deserves to be happy just like everyone else. You're not evil, you're just hurt."
Regina gave Emma a push with one hand, knocking her back into the tree and then pressing her body up against the blonde's. "My enemy." She spoke through clenched teeth. "That's exactly what you are, as you just pointed out. I know what I am, that I deserve happiness. But you could never help provide that for me." She whispered the next part against the knight's ear in a low, seductive tone. "Not for more than a few brief moments anyway."
Emma chanced it and moved her hands up the brunette's hips, waist and around to the small of her back. "Then let me start off with those moments. But they won't be brief, I assure you." She turned her head and pressed her lips lightly against Regina's ear. "Take me to your bed and I'll make you happy for hours."
Regina looked into those green eyes with a mixture of desire and something akin to affection in her own. Her heart began to pound in her chest with Emma's words and the feel of lips brushing skin. As soon as the blonde's face was before her's again, Regina kissed her. It wasn't the tentative brushing of lips or the sweet, gentle kiss many lovers first shared. It was hard, demanding and full of raw passion.
With that one kiss, Emma knew it was going to be a night filled with ecstacy and pure animal driven passion. There was a deep throated growl that came from the soldier as her fingers dug into th queen's back, kissing her just as hard. Turning them around she pressed the brunette against the tree and bit her bottom lip as she took the ample breasts in her hands.
Regina moaned as she gripped onto the fabric of Emma's shirt, roughly untucking it from her pants and letting her hands wander under the shirt and over skin for a moment before grabbing onto the blonde's hips to pull her pelvis to pelvis. Their lips still locked, she really just wanted to ravish the princess now, in the garden, but she wouldn't allow them to became anymore of a spectacle than they already were. So she pushed the knight away and smirked before she walked past her, speaking as she went. "Come with me now, Princess, and I'll take good care of you." She said as she headed for her chambers.
With a dark smirk on her face, Emma followed the Regal Queen into the castle and up to her bedroom. Shutting the door, she gripped Regina's waist and slammed their bodies together. Lips crashing against lips as Emma's hands roamed the back of the brunette's dress to find something to break her free from the material.
Regina's tongue snaked its way out to run over Emma's upper lip, begging for entrance as she assisted the blonde in getting her dress off, the material pooling at her feet and leaving the queen in just a black corset and panties.
Emma granted access to the queen. The taste was remarkable. Tongues fought for territory while the blonde's hands unlaced the corset and pulled it off, tossing it. Her rough hands moved to those now bare breasts and kneeded them, her thumbs circling the nubs.
Regina moaned into Emma's mouth and pulled the blonde back towards the bed. She sat at the end and scooted back, bringing the princess down to continue their kiss as she ripped open the knight's shirt and pushed it off, over her shoulders.
Emma gladly climbed on top of her and gripped the top of her panties. Sitting back on her knees she smiled down at the queen and slowly rolled the black lace down smooth legs. Leaning back in she planted a kiss on her right knee, staring into her eyes.
Regina watched Emma with lust filled eyes, the queen's chest flush and her heart pounding wildly. Her breath hitched as the blonde planted the kiss, staring right through her as she did so. Regina couldn't remember a time she was more aroused, and the evidence was between her legs.
Hands slithered down her thighs and to her hips and sides, as Emma slowly kissed her way down her inner thighs until she reached her destination. Moving through tiny curls she licked up the length of her core.
Regina had been propped up on her elbows to watch, but once she felt that tongue, she dropped back onto the pillows and arched her back, whimpering with need. She drew her knees up and opened herself up to the princess completely.
Those movements meant so much more to Emma. Those movements decided their fate for the night. Regina was going to be happy for as long as the soldier could make her. Taking her time, and making sure each lick, nibble, moan and penetration was meant to pleasure, Emma crawled up the queen's body and kissed her deeply. Slipping three fingers in, she finished the job.
Once Regina had come, hard and never more satisfied, she laid panting on the bed, covered in a light sheen of sweat. She wouldn't say it outloud, but what they'd just done felt a lot more special than a quick fuck.
Laying on her back, sweating and breathing heavily beside the queen, Emma looked over at her. "So, how about that happiness?"
Regina chuckled and glanced over at the princess affectionately. "Well, you were right. It wasn't brief by any means."
Emma laughed. "Told ya. Now I'll make you happy again any time, anywhere. No questions asked."
Regina smirked as she rolled to her side, propping herself up on an elbow and resting her head in her hand. "I'll keep that in mind." She slowly ran her fingers up Emma's still clothed thigh and then slipped them under the waist of her pants, moving her hand down to cup the blonde's sex.
The soldier closed her eyes and let out a whimper the moment she felt her hand going where she needed her most. Looking back to the queen, she snaked one hand to the side of her neck and brought Regina in for a slow kiss.
The queen could feel her need and teased the blonde as she kissed her languidly, a stark contrast to the first time their lips met. She eventually repositioned herself to pull Emma's britches off and slowly slid her hands up smooth thighs until she made contact with the other woman's core again. Then she moved up to kiss the princess once more as she entered her with two digits
Emma arched her back and wrapped one leg around Regina's waist, loving every second. Feeling her fingers inside, the blonde moaned. "Ohh fuck." She mumbled against the pair or lips as she started to grind against the queen's hand.
Regina used her own hips behind every thrust to pound into Emma deeper, curling her fingers from time to time. She eventually kissed her way down to the one of the blonde's breasts, circling the hard bud with her tongue before pulling it into her warm mouth and nibbling, her free hand claiming the other breast to pleasure Emma more.
The round lasted about as long as the first and Emma couldn't be happier. "Damn, Queenie." She looked over at her, panting, but with a smile plastered on her face. "We should have done this a lot sooner."
"Well there was the little issue of you hating me and wanting me dead." Regina smirked as she turned her head to the blonde. "Then again, you likely feel the same way but to a lesser degree."
She let out a chuckle and pulled the sheet up over herself. "Well I don't really want you dead. And I don't hate you so much now."
Regina laughed. "Progress is always good." She reached over to grab an apple off the stand next to her bed and then leaned back against the pillows. Stretching out the length of her body, not one bit bashful about still being nude, the queen took a bite.
Emma gazed at the gorgeous body next to her and smiled. "You're beautiful."
Regina looked back over at Emma and smiled softly. "So are you, dear." She'd heard the words from multiple men's mouths before, but they'd always been spoken with certain expectations. Coming from the princess, they just seemed... different.
"I am nothing compared to you, Queenie, but thank you." With a smile, Emma stretched a bit. "So the next part is up to you. Shall I leave or stay?"
Regina was silent for a moment as she thought. She knew the princess could still be using her. To get close and then destroy her. But she'd also learned of the sharpened bar she had in her room. Emma could have killed her that night in the guest room, after she'd captured her father, if she really wanted. "You may stay, if you wish."
The soldier smiled. "I'd like that. Thank you."
Regina gave her a brief, sweet smile and then held out the apple she'd taken a bite from, offering Emma one. "So tell me, Princess, what did you like to do back home? Besides train to kill me?"
Emma took a bite, the way she had in the garden. "Mm well..." She chewed and swallowed. "I failed that didn't I?" With a smile she continued. "I liked to work with the horses back home. Training them, playing with them. Everything about those majestic beasts I find enchanting.
Regina grinned as she watched the blonde and then took another bite herself, covering her mouth and chuckling when Emma mentioned her failure. She listened to the rest before speaking. "I used to love taking my steed Rocinante out for rides. We were quite the match." She said softly. "I haven't ridden in so long."
The blonde smiled brightly. "Then we should ride together. I give you my word that you can trust me if you take me beyond this castle and into the land. I'll stay right by your side."
Regina laughed. "Of course you will, dear. I do have your father, afterall. I know you'd never leave him behind." She was quiet for a moment. "I'll think about it."
"That is true." She chuckled. "Well, don't take too long."
"I'll give you an answer by the end of tomorrow." She promised. "For now, we should get some rest."
With a nod, Em settled into the big comfy bed. "I agree. Goodnight, Regina."
"Goodnight, Emma."
And you got some sexy times between the two! what did ya think? Don't forget to review :D
