Captain Hook/Wendy Darling

Hook/Wendy is a Peter Pan het pairing with Captain James Hook and Wendy Darling.
==Canon==
Captain Hook is the villain of the classic Peter Pan story. He is Peter Pan's nemesis, whom Pan regularly antagonizes, while Wendy is a friend of Peter. Wendy, her brothers, and the lost boys are captured by Hook and his pirates before Peter rescues them.
==Fandom==
The Hook/Wendy pairing is as popular, or nearly as popular, as Peter/Wendy within the Peter Pan fandoms. 
This is often due to the reader's maturity or how old the reader is, because this can be considered a May-December romance between a young Wendy (although she is often also aged up from whatever canon source the writer is working with) and an older Hook who appears to be in his late 30s to mid-40s, but hasn't aged a day since he arrived in Neverland. Hook is generally considered to be hundreds of years old, as are some of his pirates, Smee in particular. 
The Peter Pan (2003) film may have popularized the pairing due to the way that scenes between Wendy and Hook were portrayed in the film. Some might squick at this pairing, due to the fact that the actor who plays Hook in this film (Jason Isaacs) also plays Mr. Darling, Wendy's father, so the undertones of incest might turn people off.
The pairing name of "Darling Hook" did not start to appear until the characters made an appearance on OUAT, as the fandom often uses fanciful names to refer to each pairing. Most fans up to that point simply referred to the pairing as "Hook/Wendy" or "Wendy/Hook", with or without the virgule.

** Wendy is kidnapped by Captain Hook and/or the pirates.

===Fanfiction===
* Entrancing Wendy by Laurielove. Rated M Wendy Darling has grown up. She is married and settled. The people of Neverland, all those years ago, are long gone ... aren't they? In childhood it all seemed so straightforward: good and evil, life and love. An adult Wendy finds things are far more complicated. 
* Once Upon A Time by KnifeInTheCrayonBox, Rated T, Wendy is kidnapped on her twenty-first birthday, and on the eve of her wedding night, by the notorious Captain Hook who plans to use her as a bargaining chip to get rid of Peter Pan once and for all...if he doesn't fall in love with her first. "I'm the bad guy—the villain. I don't get a happily ever after like the good guys do, but if I did...it would have involved you." 
* The Verge of Everything by LameBicycle98, Rated T, Wendy Darling travels to Neverland one last time and ends up in the fearsome arms of Captain James Hook.
* Back to the Blue by Laurielove, Rated M Nine years after her trip to Neverland, Wendy Darling finds her thoughts consumed by one person, but it is no longer the face of Peter Pan haunting her dreams.
* I Promise by FairlightMuse, Rated M, A grown-up Wendy returns to Neverland to fulfill a bargain with Hook. But he keeps changing the rules! Slightly AU.
* No Unworthy Aim by Sinope, Rated M, "Hook should, perhaps, have died in England and awoken in Hell. Instead, he died in Neverland and awoke in the trenches of 1916 France."
