“David. There’s something I need to tell you.” Snow was sitting at the kitchen table when he came home, the only light the candle in front of her. He closed the door behind himself, unclipping his belt to hang his gun above the other weapons before he sat with her.
“Snow, what is it? Is everyone okay?” He looked towards the bassinet, but Neal was sleeping soundly.
“For now. But I don’t know. I -- my family has done things that I never knew about. Not until recently. And it’s something that might cost Emma everything.”
David’s frown deepened and he leaned forward, grabbing her hand. “Snow, whatever it is, we can overcome it. There’s nothing --”
“My mothers family has owned the Eye of the Storm since it was captured by a brave sailor three hundred years ago.”
David shook his head. “The what?”
“The Eye of the Storm. The jewel that Liam got from Hades.” Snow stood, pulling her hand from David’s. “The Northern Kingdom...My mothers homeland, it’s one of their most prized treasures.”
“But the king that Liam gave it to is the one that made him the captain of the Jewel of the Realm, sent them to Neverland...” He stopped and Snow nodded.
“Sent him after the dreamshade that got him killed. My family is the reason Killian lost his brother and became a pirate.”
