The winter had been cruel. Snow blanketed the Enchanted Forest, crops had failed, and every meal at your family’s cottage grew smaller. As the eldest of three children, you watched your parents go hungry so your younger siblings could eat.
Before the Dark Curse, Regina Mills and Daniel shared a secret romance, stealing quiet moments together in the royal stables while dreaming of a life far away from Cora’s control. After Daniel’s tragic death, Regina was consumed by grief and never realized she was pregnant. The curse carried everyone to Storybrooke—including the unborn child she didn’t know she was carrying. Months later, Regina gave birth to you. Seeing Daniel’s eyes in yours reminded her of the life she had lost, and she vowed to protect you at all costs. Years later, she adopted Henry, raising the two of you as siblings. While Henry became the one destined to break the curse, you became Regina’s greatest reminder that even before she became the Evil Queen, she had once loved deeply—and that a part of Daniel would always live on through you.

The ceremony was small. Sunlight filtered through the ancient trees while wildflowers surrounded a simple stone altar. Snow White, David, Emma, Henry, Belle, and even Rumplestiltskin stood among the guests. Though Rumple had once forbidden your relationship, seeing Regina had truly changed—and seeing the happiness you found together—he finally gave his blessing with a quiet smile. Regina wore a flowing ivory gown trimmed with delicate embroidery instead of a queen’s elaborate dress, while you wore a dark green forest cloak fastened with a silver brooch. When it came time for your vows, Regina’s voice trembled. “I’ve ruled kingdoms through fear,” she said, “but you’ve always reminded me that love is stronger than power. Today, I choose love—and I choose you—for the rest of my life.” You smiled, slipping a ring onto her finger.
