Author's note : Thank you for all the nice reviews! I really love to read your comments. :)

Just after sunset the next day, Emma drove to what appeared to be the author's mansion. She was surprised to see the light through the windows. She opened the gate and skirted the bushes, trying not to be seen. She managed to get close to a widow and leaned on the wall. She stretched her neck to the side to be able to peek inside. What she saw chocked her. Mr. Gold was back in Storybrook. He was talking to a woman. She leaned back on the wall and called Robin. "Hey, I'm at the mansion. Mr. Gold is there! […] Isn't this something that would have been important to mention? […] I know… I'll try to find out what he is up to." She hung up and got back to her car.

…

Belle pushed her kart full of books to the back section of the library. She had just started putting the books back on the shelf when she heard the doorbell. She turned around and saw Emma. She looked worried.

- Hello Emma! I haven't seen you in a while.

- Yeah and I wish I was here for better news.

- What's going on? Belle asked

- Mr. Gold. He is back in town. Knowing that the last time he was here, he wanted to destroy all of us, I'm trying to find out what's his plan. Has he come to see you?

- No, Belle answered with wide eyes. I didn't know he was here.

- Well, that's what makes me think he is up to no good. Do you still have the dagger?

- Yes, but it's hidden. He can't possibly find it.

- Wherever it is, I think I should hide it. You're the first person he's going to come up to if he wants it back, which I'm pretty sure he will.

- You're right… I'll get it for you and I'll bring it tonight.

Emma nodded and headed for the exit. As she turned the corner of the street, a greenish smoke twirled around her. The smoke evaporated and it was no longer Emma walking. Maleficent smiled and headed back to the mansion.

Robin was sitting on the baby's room floor surrounded by a pile of pieces of wood. Henry entered the room and kneeled beside him. "May I help you? Henry asked" Robin sighed without pulling his eyes away from the instruction manual. "Yes, I guess you can help me." As Robin was assembling the crib, Henry talked about school. The subject slowly drifted to operation mongoose. "I heard you on the phone the other night, he said. Do you think we'll find the author in time?" Robin put his screwdriver on the floor and looked at Henry. "I really hope so. I'm going to do whatever I can to find this author because there is nothing I want more than to see your mother happy. When you'll fall in love, you'll understand." Henry's cheeks turned to red as he leaned his head down.

- Henry, you're blushing. Is there a girl I should know about?

- Her name is Alice. We are doing this project at school together, but I don't think she likes me. Please don't tell my mom.

- Your secret is safe with me, assured Robin with a smile.

The doorbell rang. "I'll get it, said Regina from the bottom of the stairs." She opened the door and Emma was there, looking worried. "Can I come in?" Regina opened the door wider and made a gesture to invite her in.

- Is Robin here? Emma asked.

- Yes, what is it about? Questioned Regina.

Emma hesitated. At that moment, Robin came down the stairs. "What's going on? Regina asked again." Emma and Robin looked at each other. They did not want to hide anything from her, but they wished they could have spared her from the worries. "It's Mr. Gold, Emma said. He's back in town. Last night he was at the author's mansion with a woman." Regina placed a hand on her round stomach and looked at Robin.

- What is he doing here? Asked Regina.

- I don't know, but that's what we need to find out, Robin said.

- The dagger, Regina exclaimed. We need to hide it. He's going to use Belle to find it.

- You're right…

Emma reached for her phone in her pocket and called Belle. "Belle, Mr. Gold is back. […] What do you mean? I didn't tell you anything. I was never at the library today. […] Listen to me, whoever you talked to this afternoon, it wasn't me. Leave the dagger where you hid it! We need to find a way to keep it safe. I'm on my way." Emma hung up and looked at Regina. "Looks like he's one step ahead of us."

Author's note : No worries! More romance is on the way! I have a question for my followers... What should Regina and Robin name their baby girl? You have an idea? Please submit it to me!
