Upon suffering from lust for a couple of days, Regina made the decision to organize that encounter with Ruby. Taming the monster within her became more and more arduous. Emma was her aphrodisiac. After enjoying a sip from the blonde, she was confident that everything would be alright. She was convinced that once she calmed down, she would resume functioning properly. And she additionally understood that she could not let herself starve any longer. In the end, she had erred in treating Daniel in such a manner. She had decided against biting him. She had been reluctant to take a sip from her true love. At the very least, that was her old belief. Daniel's demise was prompted by the fact that she had resisted doing so for such a long period.

She cherished a profound and abiding love for him. She didn't want to expose him to the monster she was. However, the beast within her grew the more she yearned for him. When she eventually allowed him that glimpse of herself, it was already too late. He was empathetic. He didn't express himself, but he might have been a little afraid. He assured her that everything was alright. He encouraged her to drink from him if that was what she required. So she acted accordingly.

It was too late, though. The yearning was out of control, and the longing was exuberant. She drank him dry. Despite being aware that his own existence was about to come to an end, she was blissfully unperturbed. Not in that moment. No amount of blood could possibly be adequate for her to savour what she had been craving for so long. Once she fulfilled and not even a single drop of blood was left in his veins, she comprehended what had taken place. She was embracing him as he laid insentient beside her; his own blood was dripping down her chin. She then began to mewl. She took an oath to refrain from falling in love once more on that fateful day. Never in her entire life would she cross paths with someone so mesmerizing.

And yet here she was. Emma Swan inundated each of her senses to the fullest. She was no longer as youthful, though. She familiarize herself with the manner to reign over that atrocious side of her. She became proficient in the mastery of symbiosis with malevolence. She was cognizant that she was bound to bite Emma as promptly as feasible. Otherwise, Emma ought to be hauled away. Far, far away and endeavor to forget about her. The nefarious beast within her would jeopardize her if she was present. She was certain.

Once she finished her day's supper - Ruby - she had to query the younger brunette whether she would be at ease with Emma observing them the next time. She anticipated she would. She recognized that it would be beneficial for Emma if she witnessed that it's not a massacre and mayhem-filled moment.

"Would you mind if Emma was there the next time, Rubes?" Regina enquired as she stroked Ruby's limbs. After losing blood, she was constantly exhausted, so that was both quite pleasant as well as advantageous process for her.

"Uhm, yeah I suppose that wouldn't be an issue" she remarked.

"Thank you."

"Trouble in paradise?" Ruby questioned teasingly.

"I wouldn't refer to it in that manner. Considering her past experiences, it is prudent that Emma is apprehensive. However, I want her to comprehend that there's nothing to be frightened of."

"I'll be pleased to assist," Ruby grinned and waived into Regina's ministrations.

The vampire considered that having them initially at her dwelling with Emma and getting Ruby to attend afterwards would be more preferable. She failed to comprehend how storming into Ruby's apartment would be effective. Emma wasn't going to acknowledge it for what it truly was since everyone would be frantic.
