I couldn't believe that the Ball is tonight. What I can't believe is the fact that we agreed to do this. Lacy had spent the day with her friends and they were going to get ready at their house.

Killian and I, along with the kids were getting ready as the workers were setting everything up for the party. I was honestly excited and knowing that Rey will be attending too warms my heart. I'm in the shower and I hear Killian walk in. "Are the kids getting ready?" I ask as I turn off the water.

He laughs. "Yes they are changing but it won't be easy to get them into those outfits." I laugh as I open the shower door. I grab the towel and nod. "Oh yeah I know," I say. I wrap the towel around my body and I grab another one to dry my hair.

I make my way to my walk in closet and Killian grabs me. I smile. He gives me a smirk and I chuckle. "Not now Killian," I say and he starts to kiss my neck. "Damn it Killian, you know that drives me crazy." He laughs as he continues to kiss my neck. "We have to get ready Killian," I say as he starts to pull at my towel.

I pull away and I start to run towards the room. He chases after me and we both fall on the bed. He pins me down and smiles. "I got you." I laugh. He leans down and starts to kiss me. He backs away and scans my face. "I love you Emma." I smile. "I love you too." He smiles then kisses me again. Our kiss deepens and I slightly moan. "Damn it Killian," I say in between breaths and he smiles.

I take off his shirt and I start to caress his chest. Killian takes the towel off and starts to kiss my chest. He then slowly makes his way up to my lips. As we are losing ourselves in the passion of our kisses the phone rings. Killian scoffs, "let it go to voicemail." I laugh. I grabbed my phone and answered it. "Mrs. Jones the place is all ready and the servers will be arriving in one hour to start prepping for the appetizers, and your outfits will be in the dressing room in the back."

I smile. "Thanks Irma," I say. "Of course see you here at 5pm." I then hang up. "Who was it?" Killian asks as he continued to kiss my neck. "The coordinator." He nods. "Ok let's go, we have a lot to do." He groans. "I promise tonight we will have fun." He backs away. "You better." I laugh. He then gives me one last kiss then backs away.

He then throws the towel at me. "Get dressed," he says and walks out the door. I couldn't help but laugh. I walked into my closet and got into a t shirt and a pair of jeans. Time passes by and we were all dressed in our masquerade outfits. I was super excited. Killian stayed with Liam and Leía as I went to the hall to check on all the last minute details.

As soon as I get there I see Rey. "Rey!" I scream out and she hugs me. "So happy you made it." She hugged me way tighter than usual which I didn't mind but I thought it was a bit weird. She backs away and gives me a big smile. "Rey are you ok?" She nods. "Yes sorry it's just.." I smile. "It's ok." She nods. "So where's Lacy?"

I look at my watch and smile. "Well it's almost 5, so she will get here at around 5:30." She nods. I looked at Rey and she seemed a bit off. "Rey are you sure you're ok?" She smiles nervously then nods. "Yes umm I'll be back," she says and runs away. I tried to run after her but then Liam and Leía came running towards me. They started to argue but I couldn't help but think about what was bugging Rey.

Rhea's POV
I can't do this, I can't act like I don't know who they really are. I just want to hold them and tell them that I'm their daughter, the one who they've spent years crying over is me but I can't. I waved my hand and a fire ball came out. My magic was working which meant I still had to go about the plan.

It was finally time for Lacy to arrive. Everyone was there and my did everything look amazing and royal I might add. The ball started and everyone was having a blast. I then see Cora and Gold arrive and since they had masks on, my parents didn't know it was them. Cora then stands next to me. "You look amazing my daughter," she says and I smile.

"So Mr Gold who are the two that I have to kill?" He  smiles then points at my parents. I wanted to cry but I had to suck it up. I nod. "And should I kill them now?" They shake their head. "Wait until the speeches." I nod. The party continues, people ate and then everyone stood in the center of the dance floor as my mom and dad took the stage to make a speech.

"Now!" Gold says. I nod. "Killian and Emma Jones, I've been waiting years for this moment." Everyone gasps. "Rey what's going on?" My mom asks and I laugh wickedly. "Rey?" I then pull them down with a burst a magic. Everyone screamed. Lacy Leía and Liam tried to run but I freeze them. Then I freeze everyone else.

"Don't hurt our kids," My mom yelled. My heart broke hearing her say that. "It seems that two people want you two dead." They gasp. "Who?" That's when Cora and Gold stood behind me and they take off their masks. They gasp. "Hello Killian, Emma," Cora says and I smile. "You see who this lovely young lady is?" They gasp. "Rhea." The both say. She nods. "And she will now kill you both." They gasp. I wave my hand and I start to make my way towards them.

"Say goodbye," I say and my mom tried to reach out to me but of course I pushed her away. "You're not my mother," I say and she starts to cry. "Rhea," My dad says and I scoff.. "Shut up!" I scream. They both jump and nod. My hand forms a fire ball covered with purple smoke. I take a step back and as I'm about to hit them I turn around and I got Gold and Cora.

In a split second they fall. I gasp and turn around. "Mom, dad, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I was faking so I could save you." They both smiled and hugged me. My mom showered with me kisses which only made me burst into tears.

"I knew you were my baby all along." I smile. My dad then kisses my forehead. That's when I hear Cora and Gold groan. I push my parents behind me. "You will not touch them," I say as I see them get up. "You surprised us Rhea, I didn't think you had it in you to defy us." I snarl. "I always hated you." I say and Cora smiles. "Of course sweetie, why do you think it was easy to manipulate you." I scoff.

"You won't kill my parents," I say and she laughs and waves her hand. "No but you will," she says then hits me with a burst of magic. My memories were vanishing, I didn't have self control, everything was turning dark. I then looked at my parents and I wanted to kill them.

They scream at me. "Rhea!" I smile wickedly. I wave my hand and I start to form a fire ball. "Die Emma and Killian Jones," I say and they shake their heads. "The time has come," Cora says then gives me a nod. I smile. "Kill them Rhea." I nod.

I make my way towards them and my did I want to kill them, these two people. I extend my hand and my magic vanishes.

"Stop!" I over hear a voice say. I turn around and scoff when I see who it was.
