They were always his to protect
Chapter 1
Elizabeth was helping Aram check over some last known whereabouts of some criminals on Reddingtons blacklist. Donald walks over to them and tries to help out too. Donald looks at Elizabeth and notices something that is missing "You're not wearing your wedding ring."
Elizabeth looks down at her bare left hand "I thought it was time, he isn't my husband anymore. 8 years of a bogus marriage, I did one good thing out of it Allie."
Donald places his hand on her shoulder "I'm here for you and for her."
She smiles "thanks Don, anyway Aram can you narrow it down at all."
She hears her phone ring, Aram shakes his head so she answers her phone "Agent Keen, yes this is she. Wh what happened? Which hos hospital? I'll be there in 5 minutes, thank you."
Aram and Donald both look at Elizabeth who now was pale and looked like she was about to pass out. Ressler puts his arm around her waist in case she did fall "talk to us Keen what happened?"
Elizabeth blinks a few times "Al Allie got hurt at school; sh she's in the hosp hospital. I I gotta go."
Ressler helps her to the elevator "I'll drive you; you'll get hurt if you drive in this state." She just nods her response; Ressler looks over at Aram "Tell the boss what's happened."
Aram nods "I hope Allie is okay Liz."
On the way to the hospital, Elizabeth's phone rings, she doesn't bother looking at the caller ID; she was busy worrying about her daughter and her breathing "Age Agent Keen."
Ressler looks at her "breath Liz, she'll be okay."
Reddington knew something was up "Lizzie, talk to me. What's wrong?"
Elizabeth runs her hand over her face "erm can this wait Red, I'm going to the hospital, no I'm fine, Allie hurt herself at school."
Reddington taps Dembe on the shoulder "which hospital, I will meet you there."
They hang up and Reddington tells Dembe which hospital to go to, Dembe pulls up just as Ressler and Elizabeth were arriving. Reddington walks over to them "have you called Tom yet?"
Elizabeth looks at her phone "no no I haven't. I guess I should."
Ressler looks at her "Ring him only if Allie asks for him."
All four of them walk inside the hospital and head towards the children's ward a nurse sees them "Allie Keen?"
Elizabeth nods "where is she?"
The nurse points to the room "She's been asking for her mother."
Elizabeth jogs into the room "Hey baby."
6 year old Allie Keen's whole face lights up at the sight and sound of her mother "MOMMY!"
Elizabeth sits on the bed and hugs her "ohh baby, what did you do?"
Allie cuddles into her "I was skipping and I fell."
Elizabeth smiles and notices the purple cast on her arm "and you bumped your head huh."
Allie nods "yeah but it doesn't hurt, just my arm."
Elizabeth gets comfy on the bed and holds Allie, Allie sees who else has come to see her, and she waves at them. Reddington sits by the bed "My now that is a very pretty purple cast you have Allie."
Allie nods "I got to choose it."
Elizabeth kisses her head "I guess it was difficult decision to make, soo many colours, I couldn't of made that choice."
Allie giggles "I did, I did."
Elizabeth nods "Smartest 6 year old in the world."
The doctor walks into the room "Mrs. Keen?"
Elizabeth looks up "its Miss. Keen."
The doctor nods "Sorry, erm I have a few questions to ask you about your daughter."
Elizabeth nods and gets off the bed "Mommy has to go talk to the nice doctor okay; I need you to stay right here with Reddington okay."
Allie nods "yes mommy."
Elizabeth kisses her head and follows the doctor out into the corridor; Ressler and Dembe stand close to the door of Allie's room but also close to Elizabeth in case she needed their help.
Doctor holds Allie's medical file "I need to ask some straight forward questions and I apologize if they upset you."
Elizabeth nods
The doctor faintly smiles "is Allie adopted?"
Elizabeth shakes her head "No, my now ex-husband and I were having trouble but I was inseminated, why?"
He looks at her "I have both your file and your ex-husbands medical files and your blood types do not match Allie's. Allie has a rare blood type and it is only passed on through a parent."
Elizabeth looks at him "Are you saying that there was mix up 6 years ago and that my ex-husband isn't her father?"
Doctor nods "As it was sperm that was injected into you, there must have been a mix up with the samples; I'm very sorry Miss. Keen."
Elizabeth looks at him "Rare blood type you said?"
He nods; Elizabeth nods "I think I might know what happened, its okay. Thank you for telling me."
The doctor once again nods and walks away, Elizabeth runs her hands through her hair, and Ressler walks over to her "What did he say?"
Elizabeth looks at him "Tom isn't Allie's father, she has a rare blood type and we don't match. There must have been a mix up when we got pregnant."
Ressler hugs her "It's okay Liz, do you want to find Allie's father?"
Elizabeth hugs him back and sighs "I think I already know who. We both know someone who has a rare blood type."
They turn and look into the room where Reddington and Allie were, both happily chatting to each other. Elizabeth looks at Ressler "if I am right, he is going to need more than Dembe to stop me from killing him."
Donald looks at her "6 years ago was a long time Liz, did he even know about you back then?"
Elizabeth nods "He knows way more than he is telling us and frankly I know he's known me since I was at least 8 if not younger, he knew Tom was a fake and he had people watching us so let's say they tell him we were trying for a baby, he has doctor friends who says he didn't have them switch the samples."
Ressler nods "whatever you need Liz, I've got your back" and with that said he follows Elizabeth back into the room, Allie looks at her "is something wrong mommy?"
Elizabeth smiles "No baby, mommy just needs to talk to Reddington so Uncle Donald is going to stay in here and keep you company." Allie nods, Donald looks at her "are you sure?"
Elizabeth nods "I need you to watch her just in case he comes or someone tries to take her." Ressler knew she meant Tom turning up or Dembe taking her if she was in fact Reddingtons child. Elizabeth takes Reddingtons hand and leads him into an empty room which was next to Allie's so Dembe was still outside to help Raymond but also close enough to Allie's room should Tom arrive.
Elizabeth shuts the door and leans against it, she looks at him. Reddington sits down "what's wrong Lizzie?"
She looks at him "No lies! you will tell me the god damn truth. Did you have anything to do with the samples being switched 6 years ago?"…
Did Reddington have the samples switched?
