The Double Life Of Regina Mills

Chapter 10

After Charming, Regina and Emma discussed their plan on catching the blackmailer, they came to the conclusion that it would be best if the women and Henry stayed at Emma's house until they caught the man, if it was a man.

"Well, let us get Henry and his things and go to your house." Regina said abruptly to Emma. "Thank you so much David for helping us work out a plan. I'll be in contact with you when I decide when we should start it."

"Of course Regina, we need to get this guy before he takes things to another level." The former prince answered with sincerity in his blue eyes.

Emma gave her father a firm hug then yelled up the stairs for her son, "Henry! Get your stuff, we're leaving!"

Regina squeezed Charming's forearm as ever-growing feet were heard clomping down the stairs, "Okay I'm ready!"

Emma turned her attention to the brunette stating, "I think we should poof to my place, that way if the creep is already tailing you they won't know where you went."

"I was going to suggest the same thing, although 'poof' is a poor description." Regina commented with a smirk.

Henry stood there watching the unusual interaction between his mothers with interest. "Let's go already!" He announced excitedly, practically jumping up and down anxious to get home.

"I wonder where he gets his impatience from." The mayor muttered with the smirk still intact.

Emerald eyes rolled in response, "Stop it now." Emma retorted teasingly.

The three of them, Regina, Emma and Henry, all locked hands as the blonde bid her parents farewell and disappeared in violet smoke. Leaving a persistent predator waiting outside of the loft in a dark sedan waiting for the former Evil Queen to emerge.

As soon as the trio emerged from the cloud Regina declared, "I'm going to go to the mansion and pack a few things and I will be right back."

"I'm so happy that you're gonna be staying with us Mom. I think it'll be nice." Henry told his adoptive mother and threw his arms around her squeezing her hard.

Regina returned the hug with the same enthusiasm and kissed his head. "I am too my prince, I am too."

"Okay hurry up and get your stuff and get back safely. If you're not back in 20 minutes I'm coming after you." The blonde said with a wink, half joking and half concerned then the former Evil Queen disappeared in her signature dark lavender smoke.

Regina glided out of the purple fog in her bedroom and approached the expansive closet carrying the piece of luggage she had taken to New York with her immediately throwing the dirty clothes she had accumulated in the hamper. She searched her wardrobe for more clothes that she might need for her stay at Emma's.

Across town the unknown blackmailer sat in the dark sedan as their irritability grew into anger they thought to themselves, 'I guess she's not coming out. She could've transported herself to her mansion.' They came to the conclusion that she was home and started the vehicle and began the short drive to the house of their object of desire.

Regina was almost done gathering the things that she thought she'd need when she quickly glanced out her bedroom window and saw a car sitting outside of her house across the street. She could see someone in the driver's seat and squinted to try to see them better but couldn't discern who it was. Deciding on not worrying about it she went to her fancy chest of drawers and pulled out some more items just in case then she went downstairs to grab some items for Henry. As she was bent down searching for a video game for her son she saw a dark shadow pass by her living room window. She quickly got up off the floor and sped to it determined to catch the individual when she heard extremely loud fists hitting her front door. That startled her to the point where she thought about calling Emma. Her breathing became erratic and she quickly decided that the best thing to do was to transport herself and her luggage to the sheriff's house. She rushed to the bags she had packed and just as she waved her hand she heard her door get broken down.
