(Daniel's POV)

"...It wasn't all a lie not with you."

That was the last thing I heard before everything went black. Hear my mom begging me wake up as she squeezes my hand.

"Mom," I say as I open my eyes taking in my surroundings.

"Daniel you're awake! How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine just a little tired. How long have I been here?"

"One day. Do you remember what happened?" My mom asks as she gets me a glass of water and gives me some.

"Thank you," I say as I start to remember what happened before I woke up. "I remember being shot. Emily! Is she ok? Is she hurt?"

"Emily is fine," my mom says bitterly.

"Who was that woman that attacked her?"

"Her name is Kate and she is dead."

I sigh in relief after hearing that Kate is dead and can't hurt Emily anymore. I start to wonder why Kate would want to attack Emily. I wonder if I can talk to Emily and ask her.

"Mom can you do me a favor?" I ask my mom after she asks me if I'm ok.

"You can ask me anything Daniel."

"Can you tell Emily that I want to talk to her and make sure she's ok?"

My mom looks at me like I have ten heads.

"Why would you want to talk to here after everything she putour family through. Put youthrough."

"What about what I put her through huh mom. I shot her on our wedding day."

"That wasn't your fault Daniel. You were in a very bad place."

"Mom stop making excuses for me," I say as a cover my face with my hands. "Mom i don't want to fight with you right now. Can you please just tell Emily that I want to talk to her,please?"

"Anything for your darling," my mom says as she kisses my forehead and leaves my hospital room.

I start to think about what Emily said to me before I passed out. I wonder if she meant it or she just said it because she thought I was going to die. I guess I'll ask her about when she gets here, if she decides to come anyway. I startto think about all the time Emily and I spent together these past few years and start to realize how much she changed the second time we got together. I drifted off to sleep remembering the day Emily and I met and our first date.

(Victoria's POV)

I walk up to my former home after talking to Daniel. I reach the door and knock twice. I wait impatiently as Nolan finally opens the door.

"It's about time that Emily got servants in this house." I say as I walk past Nolan into the house.

"Hello to you too Victoria," Nolan says as he closes the door, "As happy as I to see you I have to ask why are you here?"

"I need to speak to Emily immediately. Where is she?" I ask as I sit in one the chairs in the living room.

"Speak of the devil," Nolan says as Emily enters the living room.

"Victoria, what are you doing here?" Emily asks as she takes a seat across from me.

"I need to talk to you about Daniel."

"Is he ok?"

Yes he's fine and awake in case you were wondering. I'm here because for some reason Daniel wants to talk to you."

"Why does he want to talk to me?"

"I don't know. All I know is that he insists on talking to you," I say as I get up and leave the manor.
