And yes Rumple did not use magic. Because he had no need to. He had everything he wanted. Can you provide a quote that Rumple views Belle as property? 1x12-"My price is her"

At some point in 4b I can't remember the episode- "[Will] took something I care for"

6x04- "Apparently I can [lock you up like one of my objects]"

[|Assaulting Whale because he looked at Belle]

Beating Nottingham up for kissing Belle (like I give him half a pass here because Nottingham was violating her but then he went on to do the same thing. Rumple wasn't upset that his girlfriend was being assaulted he was upset that another man was touching his 'property')

Coupled with the repeated times he has dismissed her agency and pursued her even she made it clear she did not want him. Examples: 4b and 6a.

I could also add the times he has referred to Milah as his property to further emphasise my point but I won't because you only asked about Belle.
