"Please mercy my queen," I hear as I see one of the villagers that was accused of stealing was kneeling before me. I look at Shane and he smiles. I walk down to the villager. I smile at him as I kneel down. "He dies at noon," I say and he screams. "No please," he screams and I get back up and smiled. He then spits at me. I chuckle and turn around.

"He's dies right now," I say and I crack his neck. "Dispose of him." The guards then take him away. Shane smiles. "Good we must not tolerate stealing on the island." I nod. It's been what maybe ten years since I've seen Killian, or Aqua. I already gave up hope that I will find and so what did I do? I became that evil queen well I became the wicked queen I promised I was going to be.

Life on the island hasn't been easy. Even though I am the queen the law is the law and I must fight if anyone tries to overthrow either me or Shane. Another thing that I've had to do is protect my babies no matter what. It's been hell, I've become someone that I don't know but it's the only way to survive.

That's when Leía walks up to us and smiles. "So is it finally time for me to go hunting?" I nod. "Yes dear it's finally time for you to learn to hunt." She smiles. "Yes finally, oh and is it true that Liam must do his first duel real soon?" I smile and nod. "That's right, you'll be able to do it soon as well." She nods.

I sigh. Allowing my kids to do this is horrible but it's the law. I know since I'm the queen I can change it but then again if I do I must duel. I'm walking by the shore and I'm thinking of everything. Shane has been there for me for all this time and I don't want to fall in love with him but since he looks so much like Killian it's hard not to.

I actually feel like I have fallen for him though but I don't know it's just a constant struggle with that. Ever since my father in law died and we had a war between us and other people that landed something in me changed. I felt like all the feelings I once had in me are now gone, I felt like love wasn't in my heart anymore. My kids knew about their father and they couldn't believe that their father was Shane's twin brother but they keep insisting me to be with Shane since their real father is never coming back.

And plus everyone on the island thinks they're Shane's so I mean I could be with Shane and it wouldn't make a difference. I don't know it's hard, I just can't it's better to be closed off than to love again.

I sit down on the sand and just stared at the horizon. What did I do to deserve this unfair life? What did I to do deserve such pain. That's when I hear an animal growl. I turn around and hiss. I had a spear in my hand and I stab it. How is it that I've become this way? I tackle the animal and stab it until it died. I was covered in blood and that's when I burst into tears.

I miss Killian, I miss my Aqua, I miss the life I had back in my kingdom. I just hate the wicked queen that I've become. As soon as I finished crying I wiped my tears and promised to myself that I will never cry like that again. Crying won't solve anything. I'm bound to this island for the rest of my life so I have to get used to being the Wicked Queen.

I make my way back to the village and I get some stuff so I could wash off all this blood. I get my stuff and made my way to one of the hidden lakes. I take off all of my clothes and get in. I started to wash up and that's when I see Shane. I gasp. "Damn it Shane," I say as I covered myself.

"I'm sorry Emma, I thought I only knew about this place." I sigh as I lower myself a little more into the water. "I'm sorry Shane, you just startled me, you're lucky I didn't have my spear." He smiles then nods. That's when he gets close to me. "Emma you ok?" He says near my ear which sent a shiver down my spine.

God he reminded me so much of Killian. That's when he kissed my back. "Shane..." He continued to kiss my back then went to my neck. I knew this was wrong but I couldn't help but imagine it was Killian. That's when he turned me around and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around him and we continued to kiss.

I felt his hands touching my legs and that's when it hit me what I was doing and I backed away. I gasp as I touched my lips. "Shane...." He nods. "I'm sorry Emma..." I nod. "It's ok Shane.." He grabs his head. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to." I nod. "No it's ok I get it, don't worry Shane." He nods then walks away.

I stood there and I covered my face. How could I have let this happen, if I didn't back away who knows what would have happened. Seriously, what did I do to deserve this wicked life?
