Once Upon A Time: Hook's Adopted Son (Book 1)

The Shepherd

I know this book hasn't been updated in sooooo long. I really wanted to get back into it but life gets in the way and I had other books on a jump start. But after seeing this book, I wanted to get back into the Once Upon A Time universe. Now I'm still gonna post but all the chapters I had prewritten were so old that I needed to re-edit them because I had to evolve. I also changed the book cover, got into Photoshop classes, and learned a few things in that class on how to make some good book covers, so I added Hiccup and Toothless to the cover.

(Storybrooke)

David was finally discharged from the hospital but his memory was still foggy. His wife took him back home for the welcome home party that everyone had thrown for him. The minute David walked into the house, there were so many people that he didn't really know. Except for Harry, Emma, and Henry who were hiding in the back of the crowd. Harry even brought Toothless with him just in case anything went wrong. Henry knew why David hadn't been able to remember. The curse hasn't worked on him yet which is preventing any fake memories from replacing his fairy tale story.

Henry figured that this could be their chance to help him. They have to get him to remember that David is Prince Charming. And the best way to do that is by getting him and Mary Margret together. Emma just looked confused "Didn't we just try that?" She questioned.

"And it woke him up," Henry said with a grin.

"He's got you there." Harry pointed out.

David joined Emma, Henry, and Harry in the back of the ground since they were the only ones here that he knew. He knows that they were the ones that found him along with Mary Margret. Toothless walked over to David who kindly pet him gently. Toothless leaned into the man's touch. "He likes you." Harry said.

"It's strange but I feel like I've seen this wolf before." David siad, petting Toothless.

He then picked up a cocktail weenie with a toothpick. Henry started asking him if he ever used a sword, and David took it as a joke. He then grabbed another cocktail weenie and fed it to Toothless. He asked Emma if Mary Margret was gonna be coming too but she told David that Mary Margret couldn't make it. David seemed so disappointed that Mary Margret wasn't coming. In the kitchen, Regina noticed Kathryn hanging back and not being with David. Regina insisted that Kathryn should go back out there and be with her husband.

"I lost him once. Now I have him back. But it's like I still don't have him back. You have no idea how that feels." Kathryn said with tears in her eyes.

"Actually I do. I lost someone once, too." Regina confessed, "But the love I lost, there's no bringing him back. You have a chance here. Go to him."

Kathryn decided to go back, she thanked Regina for being a good friend. However, when Kathryn walked into the living room, David had just disappeared from the party. David ended up walking to Mary Margret's house to talk to her. He found her struggling to put up a birdhouse in one of the trees. The minute Mary Margret saw David, her heart skipped a beat when he came over to help her with the birdhouse. He took her hand and helped her down from the latter then he put the birdhouse up. David found out that Mary Margret resigned from the hospital and thought she did it because of him.

He had confessed his feelings to Mary Margret and even he could tell that she had feelings for him as well. But Mary Margret put her feelings for David aside, he was married and she couldn't do that. David didn't care who married Kathryn, it wasn't his choice, he was choosing Mary Margret. "I know you think that we have this connection, but maybe it's because I happen to be the person who saved your life. So why don't we leave it at that?" Mary Margret stated. She walked away leaving David hurting from rejection.
