In 1x02, "The Thing You Love Most" Regina ripped out her father's heart the very same day her failed curse was attempted. According to the wikia, those events take place after the "Queen of Hearts" flashbacks but in the 2x09 flashbacks, Regina said she didn't want her mother to get swept up into the curse. So, wouldn't she enlist Hook to kill Cora before her failed attempt to cast the Dark Curse? I hope this makes sense.
