"Whenever people ask me to describe our relationship, I don't tell them that our relationship relies solely on my dominance of her, because that isn't what it is at all. It's the strong need I feel to take care of her, the need to make her feel good and safe. It's the need to let her know that she can be completely and utterly vulnerable with me, because no matter what she can trust me. No matter what, she is mine, I am hers and we are us" ~ In which Emma Swan is a princess who escapes captivity and all she wants in life is to make the Queen feel a little more alive.
