Third chance at love

Winds From The North

Going to the Theatre had been wonderful with Raphael. Regina had spent her afternoon watching a play about a selfish king and two star-cross lovers who would fight to the death for their love. Regina loved a good romantic play but she also loved a bit of fighting action too which to Regina's luck the play didn't disappoint. Raphael had gotten them good seats with a perfect view of the stage and as the play ended with the death of the Horrible King, Regina applaud and whistled with the audience. It truly was a masterpiece. " This play is nothing like the ones back in my realm." Regina said as she and Raphael left the theatre. " Really? What are theatres like back in your land?" Raphael looking curiously at Regina as they slowly strolled down the streets arm in arm. " Well they normally left you wanting to throw pies at the actors." Regina said with a soft laugh. "Besides most the plays back in my realm were about me." Regina as she record the memory of a play she had seen when she was in disguise. She was trying to track down Snow White only to come across a play about the Evil Queen which didn't end nicely at all, only in Blood and cheers from the audience. " That must of been horrible to see, I hope they don't still do that now." " Oh of course not that was in the past when I was still in the Evil queen. A lot of things have change since then."

arriving home to their beautiful bungalow Regina once again thanked Raphael for the wonderful afternoon. It had been three days since she had told him about her son wanting to meet him and asking if he would teach Lucy magic. Raphael was surprised at first but he was happy things where finally moving forward for the better. " Your welcome my love, I'm just happy you had a great time." Looking at Regina with so much love in his eyes Regina couldn't help but blush. She was completely smitten with him and when he looked at her like that Regina wanted nothing more then to make love with him. Moving closer to him, closing the gap between them. Regina planted a soft kiss onto his lips, deepening the kiss without his permission she couldn't help being mischievous. Biting his bottom lip as she broke away from their deep kiss. Raphael almost moaned in disappointed as Regina broke the kiss. He loved it when she did things like that, she knew it drove him crazy. Knowing what Regina wanted for their next activity Raphael wanted nothing more then to give to her good. However before they could continue a Loud knock came from their front door.

"Who the hell is that?" Regina said looking at Raphael with confusion. The hour was late and they wasn't expecting any visitors at this hour. "I don't know my Queen but whoever it is is in for a nasty surprise." escaping his loves embrace Raphael swiftly opened the door. To his surprise the unexpected visitor was the one person he didn't want to see. Ever.

"Mother?" Looking at his mother with confusion. "What are you doing here!"
It had been months since he had seen his mother. Raphael had made it clear he didn't want to see her again since she put tradition first before his own happiness.
"Raphael we need to speak. Its important, you and Regina aren't save here." Celine quickly rushed past her son, entering the bungalow. Whispering ancient carnations Celine placed a powerful barrier around the house. Raphael watched his mother dash around the house with concern as she placed a barrier around the area. " What do you mean we aren't safe nobody can find this place but me or Regina?" Celine turned to the both of them with terror in eyes. " Not unless some follows you and trust someone has." cold blood began to run down Regina's spine. " someone been watching us! Who!"
" The king's guards!" Celine said as she closed the all curtains in the bungalow. " They have been demanding answers from the villagers of your where about. They even found Mama Odie's hide out but luckily enough she wasn't there." Regina looked towards Raphael with fear. " King Richard is searching for you he demands you come the castle for questioning he has sent guards to come to collect you." Celine said. " What!? Raphael what did you do to King Richard! Regina said with panic in her voice." Nothing, I've never met the king from the nearby kingdom." Regina began pacing the room as she thought. " you must do something Raphael why would he be after you!"
I don't know Regina I'm just as lost as you I've never seen the King from the northern kingdom! ." stress and panic was taking over him. He couldn't remember ever dealing with King of the northern Kingdom or anyone related to him. He had nothing. Regina had no idea what to do but she did know that they had to leave right now before they got here." we need to leave now Raphael, your mother's right we can't stay-." however Raphael interrupted her. " No I'll stay you and my mother will go back to mansion, they can't reach that place with out magic or our invitation. You should be save there." Regina couldn't believe what she was hearing." you are not staying here alone Raphael are you mad! We don't know why he really wants you. What if he wants you dead.... I can't lose you, we can't lose" Regina panicked. "Regina I need to find out why he wants me for questioning and the only why to do that is go there." Cupping Regina's soft cheeks with his hands Raphael looked deep into her dark chocolate eyes. " Regina I have magic, I will be fine but right now I need you and my mother to go. I need to know your safe." Not able hold back anymore Regina let her tears run down her face. Nodding she quickly placed a kiss on his lips, wrapping her arms around his neck Regina poured all her love into him. Whispering I love you into his ear Regina felt him tighten his grip around her. " I love you too." Letting go of her Raphael saw his mother getting ready to use her magic teleport them to away. "keep her safe." Raphael said as Regina went to stand by Celine. " I will." Raphael watched the red cloud of magic engulf them and within seconds they was gone.
