Ok, so Rumple promised his second child in a contract which Hades now holds. But remember that Rumple only has "claim" to half his child. Belle has equal claim to custody of the child, and she hasn't promised anything.

So, I'm hoping that she'll put her foot down and point that out to Hades, resulting in a joint custody situation in which baby Perse spends half of the year in the overworld and half in the underworld.
