Once upon a time, there was a Pirate King. He was known across the Enchanted Forest as the the Captain who sailed to Neverland and made it back. This pirate was supposedly ruthless, merciless, and incapable of love. But that was wrong. He fell in love with an adventurous woman, desperate to escape her life. This pirate's name was Killian Jones. With his adventurous woman, he had a beautiful daughter: Luna.
Unfortunately, Luna did not survive her birth. Though Killian was grieving, he knew his daughter deserved a proper send off. Little did Killian know, his daughter was far too important to let go of. Knowing this, a fairy offered Killian a way to bring back his daughter. Obviously, he took it. The fairy gave Luna her soul and a chance at life.
But as we all know, all magic comes with a price. Though the fairy paid, Luna has yet to balance her debt.
Set in 1921. Killian Jones is rich. He gets his wealth from his father who has been there with him his entire life. Killian is an only child, which he was grateful for. His father sent him on a cruise ship in hopes that it would calm him down over the fact that he has to marry a woman he has never met.
Killian never expected to fall in love with the maid he sees around the ship.
He also never planned to go home ever again.
