My Maid

Chapter 18

Hi guys 👋🏾. I'm posting again, yay! But I actually don't have much to say today, so without further ado, here you have chapter 18 😊.
(Btw the picture above is the clothing Emma is wearing.)

Chapter 18:
Emma was standing behind her Queen, looking at her through the mirror smiling like an idiot. She was thinking about yesterday night. She did continue talking with the prisoner, who she found out is called Marian. Emma could tell that she was freaked out from her behavior, so she tried her best to explain everything to her. After minutes of talking with Emma, Marian started to get less defensive around Emma. She was nice but sad. Obviously understandable, but Emma tried to cheer her up with the promise that, she was going to let her out off this nightmare, before she took her last breath. Marian was unsure and kept her expectations low. But she did found it sweet that Emma wanted to help her even if they didn't know each other. Emma told Marian that she will see her tonight, so Emma can explain the plan to her. Marian just nodded not wanting to discuss with Emma. Emma went to bed, slept comfortably and woke up the next day excited. She had breakfast with her Queen like usual, helped her bath, dress and did her hair. The makeup her Queen did by herself still not fully trusting Emma with that. The Queen did some final touch ups until Emma started talking." How do you like, sword fighting, my Queen?" It was a completely random question which did caught the Queen off guard." Excuse me?" The Queen asked looking at Emma through the mirror." Sword fighting. You know you have a sword and you fight against your enemy-" Emma was cut off with the Queens hand raising up to silence her." I know what sword fighting is Swan, I'm just confused why you would asked me that." The Queen said turning to face Emma. Emma stayed silent for a while until continuing." I'm just asking, because I would love to show you some tricks. I have some knowledge about sword fighting and I thought maybe it would interest you." Emma explained. The Queen raised and eyebrow in suspicion." And you just came up with that, right away, out off the blue?" "No, I was thinking about it for a while actually. I-I just want to impress you. Show you a different side of me. Maybe even something you'll like." Emma said with a smirk forming on her lips. The Queen didn't say a word. Emma didn't say anything either, she just stared back at her hoping her Queen didn't catch on already. A few seconds later the Queen smirked back and replied with." I think I can arrange something." Emma smiled at that." Really?" Emma asked. Her Queen nodded." I do find sword fighting quite attractive and definitely if they are fighting for me." The Queen admitted. Of course she does. If it was about the Queen, Emma could get away with murder. With a kiss on the lips and a time when her Queen would come back, Emma started her work.
-------------------------------------------------------
Hours later there was a knock on Emma's door." Come in," She replied to it and a knight came in." The Queen is awaiting you." The knight said. Emma nodded and was about to leave when a different knight entered the room with clothes in his hands." From the Queen to you." The knight explained. Emma raised an eyebrow at the new clothes she got but took them." Thank you?" Emma smiled unsure." You should change before we go." The dark knight said. Emma got the hint, and told them that she'll be back in 5 minutes.

Regina waited for her knights and Emma to arrive. She was actually quite excited for this. Emma and sword fighting. That's something she wanted to see. Regina heard the gates to the fighting arena open and she smiled when the knights and Emma came." Finally, you're here. I thought you got lost." Regina smirked." Sorry, my Queen. I had to change into the new outfit you gave me. Thank you for it. I like it a lot." Emma apologized and stopped in front of Regina. Regina was a bit shocked about how good Emma looked. Her messy hair in a ponytail, framed her face perfectly and just how the leather pants hugged her legs making them look even better." I'm happy that you like it, and that you fit into it so well." Regina smirked up to Emma. Emma smiled back with a blush growing on her cheeks. Regina cleared her throat to get everyone's attention." So, I havedecided that you two can have some fun today." Regina said talking to her knights behind Emma." Fighting. Something I know you two do quite well," Regina started and grabbed a sword." Well now I want you two to prove yourselves by fighting my maid." Regina explained handing Emma the sword. The knights started to laugh a little at that." What's so funny?" Regina asked not amused." Your majesty, we are honored, but we're not fighting a woman, defiantly not a maid. She doesn't stand a chance." One knight told. Regina saw Emma getting angry at that." What do you mean you don't fight woman? I could kick both off you asses at that same time." Emma said furious raising her sword up the knights neck. He started laughing again but stopped when Regina gave him a death glare." If all of you are so confident in yourselves then I'm gone make it harder for you." Regina explained." Emma, you are going to fight both knights like you said you can, and you two can't hurt her. If she has one scratch you both are going to pay." Regina warned." Yes, your majesty." They all said in unison. Regina smiled at the power she had over them. The knights went to the middle to prepare, and Emma asked Regina if she could get any armor. Regina chuckled." Just a second ago you were so full of yourself. And now you're asking for armor?" Regina asked in disbelief." You want me to fight without armor?" Emma asked. Regina nodded." I just told them they can't touch you." Regina repeated. Emma didn't like that." Why? Because I'm a girl?" Regina rolled her eyes. "No, because I'm the only one that gets to hurt you." Regina whispered taking a step closer to Emma." And because if I'm wrong and you're not so talented then I don't have to apologize for anything." Regina shrugged. Emma smiled." Like you would apologize anyway." Regina smirked. Emma walked towards the knights and Regina took a seat at her thrown.
-------------------------------------------------------
Emma walk to the knights after her little talk with her Queen. She had faith in her. The Queen actually believed in Emma. She smiled at that. Approaching the knights Emma said." About what the Queen said, I'll be fine if I get a cut here or there. I'm a woman not a baby." Emma told them proud. They both just grin at Emma and waited for the queens signal.
-------------------------------------------------------
(I skipped the sword fighting part because I don't know how to do it, or how I could explain it the best and I don't want to butcher it or anything.)
-------------------------------------------------------
Regina smirked when the knights and Emma came back. She was quite happy that Emma won this fight. It was pretty close though, Emma was about to lose but, she fought her way through it and at the end both of the knights were on the ground." Well, well, well what do we have, here a female maid has actually won against you two idiots." Regina chuckled in amusement. Emma smiled as well." I think that calls for an apology, doesn't it my Queen?" Emma asked Regina. She nodded." Apologize. Both of you. Now." Regina demanded." I'm sorry-sorry." Was heard in a mumble." I couldn't hear you." Regina said and held her ear in her hands for them repeated it louder." We are sorry. We shouldn't have said what we said." One of the knights apologize. Emma nodded her head in approval, so Regina was satisfied as well." You two can leave." Regina dismissed them. They bowed and left. When they were out off sight Regina turned her hole attention to Emma." You're good." Regina pointed out and walked closer to her. Emma shrugged." I'm okay, I almost lost." Emma reminded Regina. Regina nodded and walked closer to her." But you didn't." Regina smirked and held Emma's cheeks in her hand. Emma smiled and shook her head." I didn't." She repeated. Regina stared at Emma for a while until she pulled her down for a kiss." Meet me in my play room tonight." Regina whispered against Emma's lips. Emma gulped but nodded." Great." Regina smiled and walked towards the exit." Are you coming?" Regina asked seeing that Emma was still standing in place. Regina saw Emma nodding, she smiled when Emma walked towards her.
-------------------------------------------------------
Emma walked through the dark halls of the dungeon once again. She needed to talk to Marien to explain the plan to her, about escaping this place." Marian?" Emma called out. They really needed to work on their lighting." Marian?" "I'm over here." Emma heard and saw Marian step into the light. Emma smiled." Do you want to hear the plan now?" Emma asked with a raise of the eyebrow. Marian thought about it for a few seconds still unsure and worried. But at the same time Emma was her only hope. Marian sighed and nodded." Yes, I would."

That was the part. I know the ending was a little rushed but, I just really wanted to update this. And as you guys have read, there is going to be smut in the next part 😏, just because we didn't have it for a while.
