Let Me Put My Love Into You

Regina stood in her bedroom, hand over her heart as she tried to quell the growing doubt and panic. Snow's words replayed in her mind, the doubt gnawing in her mind; thinking over all the atrocious things she'd done to her. Then again, Cora was here now and she loved her, Cora had actually told her she loved her. She was the only one that did after all, even Henry the son she'd raised for ten years didn't love her.

"Regina, darling, what's wrong?" Cora asked, coming into her room and startling Regina from her reverie.

Regina's head whipped up, her eyes wide as she saw Cora before her. She didn't say anything, not really sure what to say. She didn't know she'd been crying until Cora reached up and wiped a stray tear from her cheek.

"Tell mother what's wrong dear," Cora cooed as she pulled Regina closer, arm firmly around her waist. Regina tensed for a moment in her mothers embrace, before relaxing slightly in the action.

She looked at her mother hesitating for just a moment before answering, "Do you care for me mother?" she asks, unsure of how her mother'll react to the question.

Cora herself tenses only a brief moment before smiling sickeningly sweetly at her daughter. Her arm tightened gently and pulled her closer, their bodies pushed perfectly together. Cora turned to face Regina slightly bringing her hand up to cup Regina's cheek softly.

"Of course I care for you Regina," she cooed, confusion settling in her features, "Why would you ask such a thing?"

Regina melted into her mothers touch. She smiled softly, relieved at her mothers answer. Then she frowned, why had she allowed Snow's words to affect her and make her doubt her own mother? Cora was her blood and the only one in the world who loved her.

"Snow White...she, she doesn't think you care for me," she admits quietly, avoiding her mothers gaze.

Cora's eyes narrowed at Regina's answer. Anger bubbled up within her but she couldn't be sure if the anger was at Snow for creating doubt in Regina's mind or at Regina for doubting her.

"You know that's not true Regina. You are the only thing in all the realms I truly care for," Cora told her softly, "I want to show you how much I care for you Regina. I want to prove my love, because I do love you Regina. More than you'll ever realize," the elder brunette says, staring intently at Regina, an idea forming in her mind.
