I think it is something much more complex, than simply being about heros and villains. The Camelot arc may finally show castle politics, and the pressures of ruling a kingdom. While Arthur might be acting shady, to him Emma is nothing more than the Dark One. He does not know her as anything else, other than a demon that needs to be stopped.
