Chapter 1:

Turned over a new leaf.

Being a princes is a boring thing. Do not trust everyone's says in fairytales, there is no adorable prince Charming, no adventures, and well, balls are pretty annoying. To my mind: a waste of time. Oh well, I forgot to introduce myself, my name's Emma, Emma Charming. How ironic when I told you there is no prince charming in my world. In fact, I know one, my father, James. My mother used to call him only by Charming, she thinks it suits him. As prophecy says, I'm the product of true love, I can't argue guys that my parents are, the way the look at each other, the way they smile, the way they kiss… It's not only withewash, they truly love each other. So why ? Why on earth they want their only daughter to mary this guy, this Bealfire, son of Rumplesiltskin, also know as the dark one ? To preserve our lands, to make a treaty with one of the most powerfull sorcer of our land. That's unfair. I should just run away, have my own happy ending, live this place forever. But I just can't.

All the kingdom already knows it, through the window glass of my parent's castle, I could see the village square celebrating our to be engagement. How was that even possible ? I'm wearing a red ball gown, almost too tight for me to breathe. Behind me, I can hear the door open but I'm not moving. The minute later, I can feel my mothers arms around my shoulders. Snow White, the famous princess of the realm, now lovely queen of the enchanted forest. She is a hero, everyone knows it, from the peasant to the aristocracy. In her younger years she traveled through the kingdom to escape her stepmother : the Evil Queen. She defeated her along with my father and took back her kingdom. Until The Evil Queen came back two years ago, burning some far away villages, spreading fear and desolation on her way. She wanted revenge, it's the only thing that keeps her alive. As well as the curse she sent away 21 years ago, no one, except the children can't get older than 27, because of that stupid prophecy that says the product of true love will bring back all the happy endings… Well, as you can remember, it's supposed to be me. I couldn't believe it, who was I to pretend to be a sort of savior ? I was just some dumb princess who only wish to have a story on her own, to be normal, and live all the adventures I could dream of.

" Honey… My sweet little girl… It's not what I wanted for you. I know you're upset, but see… Bealfire, he is nothing like his father. I believe he's kind, loving young man, I'm sure you're going to love him, just like I love your father." she murmured before leaning a kiss on my cheek.

" If you said so… " I said in a low voice, my eyes still looking down at the village.

" Emma… "

"Yes mother ?" I asked, before turning back to face her, a small sad smile on my lips.

"You are a stupendous young women and that dress is marvelous… " She paused, taking a deep breath. " You know, sometimes true love…"

"There is no such a thing as true love mom… You both were just lucky enough. Not my case."

She wanted to answer, but one of the guards knocked on the door still open : "My queen… The King needs you, the army finally captured that pirate and bring him back to the castle, the one who wrecked the Snow Ball ship of yours months ago. "

My mother whispered, closing her eyes for a second, and after leaning another kiss on my cheek, turned away from me.

"Here I come… Emma would you join me ? "

I looked at her, frowning, the kingdom affairs were never mine, not even a royal council, so why on earth my mother wanted me to came with her ? I nodded, taking the chance before she changed her mind. I had never seen a pirate before, but people always told me they were scary, the ugliest peoples that the realm could carried. I barely remembered my father stories in which pirates were bloodthirsty, with respect for nothing only treasures and themselves. I followed my mother to the throne room where I could see my father, and two guards holding a man dressed in leather head to toe.

" Why did you bring Emma, Snow ? " whispered my father to my mom as soon as we came across.

" She is the heir to the throne, she has to know what she is going to deal with soon or later…"

"Look you majesty… If I have the choice, I would prefer to deal with the princess as well… " The pirate said, finally looking at me, a grin on his face. He was nothing like I never imagine. How could he be so dashing? One of the guard kicked him, and my father stepped right to him.

"Do not even dare to look at my daughter, pirate…"

" Is that a threat ? So the rumors were right my King… She is going to be married… Such a waste, you should keep her as a treasure instead of selling her to the son of the Dark One. " Said the pirate, his blue eyes still on me that he made me blush a little. He winked at me, before looking my father in the eye…

" He dies tomorrow… Get the stake prepared." Sentenced my dad, cold as death, ignoring the statement of the pirate.

"NO !" I shouted out, It came through my mouth without even thinking of it. I joined my father, leaving my mother's side. My father frowned, starring madly at me, but I didn't care. " I thought we were the good ones… You are not going to kill a men because we wrecked an old ship of yours… "

" Emma… Do not contest my decision. He is a pirate, he is not only wrecking vessel, he also kills torture. He is nothing but a killer, a liar, a monster ! "

" Here, the monster I can see is not the Pirate…"I told my dad, face to face. He didn't lose control, as I expected he only grounded me in my room… If I could be grounded too for the time Baelfire arrived it would be such a deliverance… I was so angry, so sad but also fascinated… Why I could wipe that damn pirate off my head ? That's a nonsense, I can't even believed I took his part and faced my father to save his life. What's wrong with you Emma ? I asked myself, trying to figure it out.

On my way to the castle jail, I was waiting for being stopped by the guard that should take care of the prisoner, but luckly, he was asleep. I look at him, reaching for the key that were next to him on the table, near a flask of rum. My heart was beating so fast in my chest. Ok I get it, the guard had been knock away by alcohol, believing the pirate couldn't just disappear. I headed to the pirate's cell, and meet his gaze as I opened the door and closed it behind me… He was chained to the wall, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw he had been hitten by the guard. I could tell by the bruise on his left cheek…

" What a princess like you are doing in this part of the castle ? Shouldn't you be preparing for you engagement ceremony ?" he asked me.

" I have a deal to make with you pirate…" I started, as I kneed just in front of him.

"Really ? I'm all ears Princess. And by the way… My name is Killian Jones, captain Killian Jones, but you can also called me by my more colorful moniker Hook" he grinned, I could feel that his eyes were looking just through me, as deep as I feel the goose bumps on my skin.

" I'm going to free you, at only one condition Jones… I'm coming with you…It's give and take. "

" Di you lose your mind ? What would you do on a pirate ship ? You father would kill me ! "

"I suppose it is what's going to happened tomorrow morning then… Don't worry it's only a matter of days, we're travelling together, once we get to the port, you'll go to your ship and I will go on my way… "

"You're a tough lass, princess… But, well, I assume I have no choice."

" Good"

I looked for the key on the key ring and stand up to free him, touching his wrist to handle the cuffs to make it fall open on the floor of the cell. He rubbed his writs to chase the pain of the cuffs away and stepped right in front of me, looking at me head to toe, he grabbed my waist pulling me closer and I hold my breath to the contact. He pushed me against the wall, kissing me fiercely as I had never been before. His desire to deepen the kiss made me moans against his lips as I opened my mouth and let his tongue caressing mine.

As I ran out of air, I broke up the kiss, breathing heavily, closing my eyes as I feel his kisses ran through my collar bones. A thought just run into my brain, if someone I know was heading here, he would be a dead man and I would end up as a nun. I gently pushed him away. What the hell was happening ?

"Now, let's get out of here… Follow me, I know the way… " I said to him, Ignoring the way he was looking at me… Damn. What was wrong with me ? I was about to flee with the dashing pirate I just kiss… I think I was just out of my mind, but, for the first time of my life, I was feeling something new… I was alive.
