Sometimes Regina thinks of Snow White as the sweet little girl she once was. Struggling to be good and obedient, even if she couldn’t keep a simple secret, one that could have saved a man’s life.

So different to the woman before Regina now.

Snow’s eyes burn, and she may not have magic like Regina but she still has an aura of power. Pushed so far by Regina’s hatred, and she is more lion than lamb in her womanhood, strong and resilient.

When Regina kisses her, Snow kisses back just as savagely, with just as much anger and hunger. She pulls at Regina’s dress with hands that are rough and calloused from her bow, from the hard life that Regina has forced upon her.

It’s beautiful, to have affected somebody so deeply, to have moulded their very soul, and Regina would be proud if Snow didn’t ire her so. Instead she settles for tangling unforgiving fingers in Snow’s hair, tilting her head back sharply so Regina may keep control of the kiss, so she may make it as cruel as she desires.

And Snow allows it. She may have grown fierce and noble, but there is something within her that still craves Regina’s approval. It is something that Regina coaxes at, for it may be Snow’s undoing. For it allows Regina this heat, the feeling of Snow’s teeth in her bottom lip, the sensual noises Snow can’t quite hold back.

For all the resentment between them, Snow is Regina’s masterpiece.
