Summary
Belle, a 22-year old grad student is excited to get her masters in library sciences at Salisbury University in Maine. There, she meets a man who goes by Mr. Gold, thinking that a meet-cute with him in the bookstore will lead to more talking and dates. Unfortunately for her, Mr. Gold ends up being her academic advisor for her program. Belle must keep their relationship professional, despite the chemistry they have.
When deciding to confront Mr. Gold about their now-awkward greeting, Belle discovers that Mr. Gold is not who he says he is. Mr. Gold is Rumplestiltskin, a mage who has a lot of power. He is a part of a group of mages who she learns are fighting a powerful source. Belle decides to help Rumplestiltskin with his mission.
Rumple is still not who he says he is, and Belle does not want her heartbroken again. She must do what she can to protect the magic at her university, while also containing her feelings for her teacher.

As Rumplestilskin recovers from his ordeal, Belle installs him as caretaker of her large estate, convincing herself it is only to observe him more closely. While Belle and Rumple grow ever closer together, the fairies of the Enchanted Forest conspire to rid themselves of the denizens of the Dark Castle for good.

Summary
"Hello, Emma", she said, her voice quiet and a bit raspy.
"Regina? Did something happen?", she frowned her brows. The appearance of a woman stunned her so much that she couldn't even answer in her's usual sarcastic manner.
"No..Uh I..Here," Regina handed the blonde what she was carrying – it appeared to be a cake and a small package – and let out a breath, "happy birthday." And then was it. The gentle smile Emma loved so much was now directed to her.
or, it's birthday of the Dark One Emma and Regina is here.

Summary
As the Dark One’s indentured plaything, Jefferson has learned to submit, survive, even thrive—so much so that she tasks him with training the timid spinner newly bound to her service to please her as well as he does.
Under Jefferson’s tutelage, Rumplestiltskin grows into his role, his desires, and his voice. But when the lessons end and the touches linger, they discover a bond deeper than servitude and survival: one that may lead them to freedom—and the families they gave it up for.
