Regina started to walk around him. Robin couldn't believe it, she was leaving him! He couldn't let the best thing he would ever have in his life walk out of the door, out of his life!
He quickly made a beeline to the front door and threw his body on it to stop her from grabbing for the doorknob.
"Get out of my way, Robin," Regina said.
"Regina, wait. I can't let you just leave," Robin said.
"You can't stop me," Regina said.
"No, I can't. But I have to apologize to you first," Robin said.
"I'm sick of you apologizing to me!" Regina said angrily.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Robin asked, rather loudly.
"I want you to take me to bed, you idiot!" Regina yelled.
"I will!" Robin said as he brought his hands to the side of her face and kissed her boldly.
When he pulled back from the kiss, he quickly bent and lifted her up over his shoulder.
"Robin, what are you doing?" Regina asked as he started up the stairs.
"I'm taking you to my room to have my way with you!" Robin explained as he made quick work of the stairs. He was about to toss her onto the bed, when she yelled at him.
"Robin! Don't drop me!" Regina yelled, clearly alarmed. While she knew that the chances of her being pregnant were slim, she didn't want to take any risks in case she was.
"I wouldn't dream of it," Robin said as he gently lowered her onto the bed.
She went to her knees and brought her hands to the revealing bulge at his groin. Her fingertips fluttered appreciatively over the hard jut of his erection and he jerked in complete delight at her touch.
His blue eyes smoldering with erotic heat, he pulled her up against him and crushed her ripe pink mouth beneath his, his tongue darting and delving deep to send tiny shudders of shocking arousal coursing through her lower body. Liquid heat pooled between her thighs.
She felt him start to remove her clothes, as her top dropped the bed, his hands closed to her hips and lifted her to the edge of the bed. He then reached below her skirt to close his hands into the waistband of her lace undies and pulled them down.
"I've needed this so much," Regina whispered against his mouth as he lowered his head to capture a rosy nipple between his lips and lash at it with his tongue while his fingers stroked and teased the delicate pink folds at her core.
"I've wanted you for so long," Robin said, as he pulled back and asked, "Are you sure you're up for this?"
"If you don't ravish me right now, I swear I'll-" her words were stopped as Robin captured her lips again. She let out a gasp as his thumb rubbed over her and then a long finger tested her readiness.
He slid a single digit into her lush opening and her body arched, hips lifting off the bed.
"So wet, so tight," Robin growled.
"So ready," Regina reaffirmed as Robin yanked down his zip with a lack of cool that even in the state he was in, astounded him. He made quick work of his shirt as well. On some level the hunger was so all consuming that he honestly thought he might die of overexcitement if he didn't get inside her.
His mouth roved between the straining mounds of her perfect breasts, tugging at the swollen buds, causing her to cry out. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, just a little sensitive," Regina said.
"I'll be more careful," Robin promised as he arrowed lower, letting her feel the long, slow glide of his tongue while he pulled her to the edge of the bed to position her. He plunged in and drove the breath from her body with the intensity of his entrance. She whimpered as he stretched her, her body clenching around him so tightly.
"Regina..." he muttered, for already she was wrapping her legs around his waist, arching against him, and he let out a ragged gasp of desire because she felt so good.
They moved in silent, sweet complicity, and pleasure, and something far deeper surged through him, overwhelmed every sense he possessed. This was where he belonged.
He felt her arching against him and she sobbed out his name, her face buried in his shoulder as he reached his own climax and drew her close to him on the bed, never wanting to let her go.
"Did I hurt you?" Robin asked after a few moments.
"No, you blew me away," she whispered truthfully.
"You bring out an animal in me," he admitted raggedly, pressing his sensual mouth to the top of her down bent head in what felt like a silent apology.
"Like a lion," Regina admitted shakily. "I liked it very much."
"What the hell have we been playing at then, for the last few weeks?" Robin asked.
Regina shot him a teasing glance, "You were depriving me of sex. Why, I have no idea, so I stopped trying after awhile."
Robin was already painfully aware of the lack of logic in his recent behavior. He couldn't answer his own questions, never mind explain or defend his decisions to her. He had honestly believed that for once he was doing the honorable thing and that she would appreciate his restraint. Evidently he had got that badly wrong. She was accusing him of depriving her. Gods...no doubt it was sexist but he was the one who had felt most deprived. And being deprived of the joy of her body, her heart and just...her, was one of the worst feelings.
His brooding silence nagged at Regina's nerves. Perhaps even though he enjoyed the physical release of her body he had preferred the distance provided by their lack of intimacy on many levels. Maybe he was worried she was getting too attached.
The following day, Regina was in the doctor's office hearing the doctor's words, but not believing them, "I believe the medication you received in the hospital may have disrupted your birth control. Of course, no contraceptive pill is foolproof either. It's an interesting conundrum," Doctor McGill remarked as if the development were purely of academic interest. "Fortunately you're in much better health than you were a month ago...absolutely blooming, in fact!"
Regina's smile felt stiff because she was still in shock. She was pregnant, one hundred percent with no room for error pregnant, and Robin was likely to go into even greater shock over that reality. What were the odds she would conceive so soon? What would Robin do? He had said he wanted children...eventually. How was he going to react to this news? Surely he wouldn't recommend to her to have a termination?
While it was true that she hadn't planned a baby this early, she still wanted the baby that was now on its way. Her baby and Robin's, a little piece of Locksley heritage. A little boy, a little girl, Regina wasn't fussy about the gender. Indeed she was getting excited about the prospect of motherhood and feeling guilty about the fact.
On the way home, before her conscience could claim her and stifle her natural impulses, Regina paid a visit to a very exclusive baby shop where, without the smallest encouragement, she purchased an incredibly expensive shawl and a tiny pair of exclusive white lace booties.
When she got home, Robin had left her a note telling her that he had been called out of town for a client, but promised to return before midnight. But he might have well fallen asleep during his flight, Regina thought with an evil smile. Quite deliberately she had exhausted him. She had kept him up half the night and had awakened him at dawn in a manner that he had sworn was the ultimate male fantasy. His response had been incredible enthusiastic. But then Robin had remarkable stamina, she reflected radiantly. She ached all over. She ached in places she hadn't known she could ache but it had all been in a good cause.
When she got home, Regina got sleepy and went to take a nap. She lay on the bed wondering about how best to share her news with Robin and tears prickled her eyes as she pictured his possible reactions. Surely he would be pleased?
Robin arrived at home very late, he was slightly disappointed when Regina didn't greet him downstairs. He had texted her several times, but she had not responded to him. He went up to the bedroom and found her asleep on the bed, with her clothes still on, her shoes on the floor beside the bed. Suddenly Robin was worried about what the doctor might have told Regina about her health before going to sleep.
As Robin entered the bedroom, Regina was roused with him opening the door. She pushed herself up on her elbows and smiled, tousled dark hair falling round her sleep flushed face.
"I exhausted you," Robin assumed with a wolfish grin of all male satisfaction as he stood at the foot of the bed.
"It's the heat, I get very tired after being out in it," Regina said as she studied him. In his beautifully tailored suit, Robin was a vision of masculine elegance and sex appeal. He was gorgeous with his stubble outing his strong jaw line and those intense blue eyes below his extraordinary lashes. Her breasts tingled and heat simmered low in her pelvis.
"I've missed you," Robin said, "I've only been gone a few hours and I can't stand being away from you. What did your doctor have to say?"
Regina tensed and swung her legs off the side of the bed so that she was half turned away from him. "He had some news for me after the tests."
"What sort of news?" Robin prompted, shedding his jacket and jerking loose his tie while wondering if she would consider him excessively demanding and greedy if he joined her in the bed.
Just then the doorbell went off and Robin turned his head, as he turned back to her he said, "Stay here, I'll be right back."
Regina watched as he went back downstairs, and after a few moments she decided to head down as well. She stopped at the top of the stairs to see Robin talking to two police officers.
"Robin? What's going on?" Regina asked him.
"Regina, go back to our bedroom," Robin said.
"Mr. Locksley, you're going to have to come with us," the police officer said as he turned Robin around and started to handcuff Robin's hands.
"Robin!" Regina said as she went down the stairs, "Why are you arresting him?"
"Ma'am, Mr. Locksley is under arrest for assault," the police officer said.
"Assault? That's ridiculous, he's the most kindest man I know," Regina said as Robin looked at her.
"He assaulted one, Leopold Blanchard," the police officer informed her.
Regina looked at Robin, "Regina, listen to me, I need you to call my brothers Caleb and Brad, tell them to get here asap. Their numbers are in my address book in my study, in the top drawer on the right."
Regina was in shock, as she knew that Robin was upset with what Leopold had done to her, but she still couldn't see Robin hurting another person.
"Regina, know that I love you," Robin said as the police escorted him out of the house and to the police car, once he was loaded inside she watched as he was driven away.
Regina closed the door and walked to his study, she quickly found his address book and called the numbers by his brother's names. "Hello, this is Regina Mills. I'm sorry to be calling so late, but Robin is in trouble."
"What kind of trouble?" Caleb asked as he spoke with her.
"He's been arrested for assault," Regina answered.
"Alright, Brad and I will be on our way shortly," Caleb said.
"Thank you," Regina said.
"And Regina?" Caleb said.
"Yes?" Regina said.
"It's very nice to finally somewhat meet the woman who has brought so much joy into my brother's life," Caleb said.
Regina didn't respond, she could only somewhat nod. She hung up the phone and went to the bedroom, thinking she hadn't really brought much joy into Robin's life. Now, because of her, he was arrested.
She would help him get out of this mess she had unintentionally created so that he could put his life back together again. Then she would have to find a way to start her life over again,
without him.
