As for what Hook said to Emma: It is completely understandable. She went against his wishes, and transformed him into the thing he hated most. I think most of us would have reacted the same way and said similar things, if we were in the same situation. Not only that.... but Hook finally told her the truth, about how he felt.

Emma needed to hear, that she hurts her loved ones by pushing them away. Hook has always been so patient with her, and most of the time ended up verbally abused, because of her walls. This was even before they started dating, and were just friends. I cannot even count the amount of times Hook stood in silence, as Emma would make sarcastic comments about him. It is called, a lover's quarrel for a reason.... everything he said, was long overdue.

Also, nothing Dark Hook says, can be taken at face value. Dark Ones lie, Dark Ones trick. Most importantly, they always have an ulterior motive. For Rumplestiltskin, it was reuniting with his son. For Emma, it was trying to undo what she did to Hook. For Hook, it appears to be vengeance. The question is on whom.... Rumplestiltskin or the Darkness itself?
