To my new story. I don´t know a title yet but many you can come up with a good title for it. Just let me know in a review or pm if you have any ideas.
Summary: Cora kept Zelena and is now married to Henry Sr but a night with the Dark One leads to another pregnancy. This baby is born with great power and Cora has to hide her from her husband in order to keep the secret. Her half sister Maleficent takes the child in and raises her as her own in order for Regina to one day cast the dark curse for her parents but will everything go as planned?
Five years later….
Archie and Regina have been married for almost four years now and couldn´t be happier. Johanna and Cora had put aside their differences and were both loving mothers and grandmothers. Henry spent every second week with Regina and Archie and every other week with Emma, who now had her own flat with Killian. They all have become a family and spent a lot of time together.
Shortly after their wedding Regina had discovered that she was pregnant and her infertility curse had been broken by her true love. Now their twin daughters were three years old and in very way like their mother. The toddlers were just as stubborn and strong willed as Regina which made it sometimes hard for the young parents to control them. The girls had their father wrapped around their little fingers and used it often to get what they wanted even though their Mama had already said no. The older one of the girls by five minutes was Alexandra, who had her father´s green eyes and her mother´s dark, thick hair down to the middle of her back and was a tad bit taller than her younger twin. Lily, the younger twin, was the spitting image of Regina with big brown eyes and long dark locks all the way down to her hip. She was a lot shier than her sister but just as cheeky at times.
Now the girls sat in the living room with Cora and Johanna watching over them while Regina and Archie did their jobs.
"Grandma, Nona?" Lily asked softly, her big brown eyes staring up at the two older women. Both of them smiled down at the little girl who had her brother´s fairytale book in her lap. Alexandra copied her sister´s movement and frowned.
"What is it, little one? Something the matter?" Cora asked, suddenly concerned that something was wrong with her little granddaughter. Lily had been a lot smaller and weaker when they were born and was sick quite often so they all were extremely careful when it came to watching over the little brunette. Regina didn´t like leaving her daughter in a day care or enrolling her in kindergarden yet, simply because she didn´t trust a lot of people in town. There were still so many people in town that saw her as the Evil Queen and sneered at her girls whenever they went into town. So she was very careful with trusting people.
"Why Mommy´s story not in Hewnry´s book? You tell story to us, pwease?" the brunette gave her Nona the puppy dog look that worked every time. Alexandra just nodded and joined her twin. The old women smiled and exchanged questioning glances. Were they ready to hear the story?
"Uhm, that´s a story for when you two are older. You are too young to understand right now and you should ask Mommy and Daddy to tell you. That story is not meant for little princess´ ears like yours. Okay?" Johanna explained softly but the toddlers didn´t seem convinced.
"What should I tell them?" they heard Regina´s voice from the foyer and the girls ran to their mother to greet her.
"Mommy!" they shouted in unison and ran into their mother´s arms. Cora and Johanna following close behind.
"Hello, my princesses. Were you good for Grandma and Nona?" they nodded and smiled at Regina. The mayor kissed them both on the head before greeting her mothers.
" They have been perfect little angels like always." Johanna said and hugged her daughter tightly. They have become really close over the years and were now a big happy family. Cora even moved into Johanna´s home and worked in Regina´s office.
"Mommy! Tell us the story, pwease." Alexandra pleaded and Regina seemed confused.
"What story, sweety?" she asked and they all went into the living room and sat on the big white sofa.
"They want to hear your story since it´s not in the book. " Cora explained and took her usual seat in the armchair across from the sofa. Regina looked down at her girls who still gave her the puppy dog eyes.
"Yeah, mommy. Why you gots two mommies and no daddy?" Lily asked and Regina sighed. How was she going to explain this.
"Fine. Once upon a time…" she started and the toddlers snuggled up in her lap as she explained the story of how she ended up being a princess and about a life that could have been .
The End!
