Life just threw another curve ball on Regina. The happiness she always wanted is within her grasp but she just couldn't get it. She knows she has Robin's heart, not literally. But him having a child with her sister just made everything complicated. Not only because Zelena is her sister but her own insecurities are getting in her way. She can't have children, that much is clear with her. She given up her chance of bearing her own a long time ago for power. She destroyed all possible source of weakness that may come her way so she can cast the dark curse for her vengeance and now she's definitely paying the price. It didn't only leave her speechless but everyone else. No one can blame Robin either. They all thought she's Marian and he did nothing wrong. He thought she's his wife.

Emma looked at Regina. Her eyes filled with guilt. She did this. She brought her back and she made a huge mistake. She brought back the same person they got rid off before, the one person who wanted to erase Regina's existence, to see her suffer and now she succeeds. Regina wanted to kill her now more than ever but she can't. She can't hurt her because of Robin's child. She can't do that to him. Zelena smiled as soon as she realized that. It's like she gained immunity from her sister and all the heroes. Then she was immobilized on the spot where she's standing. Everyone looked at Regina. "What? It's not me", she said in her defense. "It's me", Gold suddenly said as she went beside Regina. His dagger pointing at Zelena. "You can't kill her. She's carrying a child inside her", Snow said.

Everyone is waiting for him to say something. Then he let out a small smile. "No. I'm not going to kill her", he said. Zelena frowned. She expected too that she will die at his hand. "…but I can't let her do anymore damage in this town either", he added. He waved his dagger and black bracelet appeared on her wrist. "I guess you already know what that it", he said to Zelena. It was the bracelet that binds magic. "Oh, and don't try to cut off your arm because it will not work. Only I and I only alone can remove that from you", he said then he let her go. She can no longer use magic. Regina looked at Gold. He smiled at her. "Do you know any place where she can rest while waiting for her due?" he asked her and she nodded. "I know exactly where to put her", she answered and then looked at Zelena and made her disappeared. "Where did she go?" David asked. "Don't worry. I didn't send her to hell as much as I would like that. She's safe and so are we", she answered.

The party was cut short due to that new revelation. Regina asked Henry if he can stay with the Charmings that night and he agreed. He wanted to give her the space she needed to absorb what just happened and she promised to stay in contact during that period. Regina did everything she can to avoid talking to Robin. She can't let her own issues show. He never knew that side of her. He has always seen her as the hero figure. Even back in the Enchanted Forest when they met during the missing year, he saw a capability in her to be a true hero despite her appearance as the Evil Queen. She has always been so strong in his eyes and she doesn't want that to change. It's late at night and her house is screaming silence. She is sitting in front of the fireplace drinking red wine. She then heard knocking on her front door which she chose to ignore. If it's Snow, she'll just bypass the lock on her door. She's a bandit.

The front door opened and she shut her eyes. "I thought we agreed that you and your Charming family will give me some space. This is not giving me that space. This is you invading it", she said without looking. "…but I am not part of the Charming family", Robin said. She got up and turned around quickly surprised by his arrival. "I picked the lock. It's sort of my thing", he said when she saw her face wondering. "What are you doing here?" she asked him. He started to walk towards her. "I wanted to see you. I know you've been avoiding me for days now but we need to talk and I know that you know it too", he answered. She's knows he's right. She can't avoid him forever. "There's nothing to talk about. It's all clear, isn't it? I know it's not your fault. We all got fooled by my sister", she said. The pain is so obvious in her voice and he can see that. "This doesn't change things between us", he muttered. She looked at him. "Of course it does. It changes everything", she disagreed.

"How?" he asked.

"You're having a child with my sister", she answered.

"I know that. But I don't love her. I love you", he said.

"How is that going to work? I…I can't even picture it in my mind", she asked.

"We'll find a way. We'll figure it out", he answered. He looked at her carefully. "That's just not it, is it? There's something else. Tell me", he added.

"I can't have that", she said then looked away from him. She took a deep sigh before managing to look at his eyes again. "I can't give you that", she added.

"What are you talking about?" he asked again.

"I can't have children. I removed that chance in me a long time ago when I chose my revenge over everything. So I can't give you that. I can't have that with you", she answered.

He walked closer to her until he reached her. She looked on the floor avoiding to be truly seen by him. He lifted her face up so their eyes will meet. "I don't care about that. All I care about is you. We have children. We have Henry and Roland and there's another one on the way. We have all that we need", he said. She looked at him in awe and surprise. "What is it?" he asked her when he noticed her staring at him. "I was just wondering", she answered. He smiled. "About what?" he asked again. "What did I ever do to deserve you?" she answered. It made him smile even more. "It's me that should ask that question", he said and then gave her a gentle kiss. "No more hiding, Regina. We belong to each other. We will figure it out together", he said and she smiled at him. "Together", she replied and they settled in each other's arms.
