    Summary

    Four years after losing his hand and his first love in the line of duty, Killian Jones, now a permanent exchange officer with the British Royal Navy, is starting to wonder whether his emotional scars are doomed to be as permanent as his physical ones. A chance meeting with Emma Swan, a young Navy surgeon-in-training, however, grants him the opportunity to work toward healing and happiness, if only he’ll let her in. (Captain Swan modern AU. Angst & Romance. Warnings for vague descriptions of medical injuries, mild profanity, and eventual smut. Rated E.)

    Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Killian, Emma, or any of their compatriots from Once Upon A Time. While this story, including most of the dialogue, is my baby, small bits of dialogue featured in this piece are from the show and are not original to me.
