I personally think it has something to do with his past, something bad ( might have to do with his family, the spring maiden and/or maybe the Arc family...maybe... I don't know) could've happen like racism and/or fear... or maybe he was taken away and locked somewhere where no one could find him ( like Rapunzel) and Salem saw what he was capable of and took him away... thus causing him to be thankful to her and loyal to her cause.
