Chapter 11

"Who are you?" An upset Tracy asked. She was in what looked like an empty wine cellar.

"I can't tell you that. Besides its not important anyway, its not like it could help you." A voice replied. Tracy couldn't see the person whom she was talking to, they're were hidden in the shadows.

"The hell its not and where is he?" Tracy was almost hysterical and trying her hardest to hold back her tears. "He hasn't done anything to you!"

"Tracy don't you think I know that."

"Then why him, why now?" Tracy's anger was growing more and more with each word that came out.

"Oh I think you know the answer to that." After that was said the figure came from out of the shadows. Tracy screamed.

"Tracy! Tracy wake up." Luke said to Tracy who was screaming in her sleep. She woke up and was out of breath. She tried to speak but the words wouldn't come out. Luke held her tight, trying to calm her down. "Shh its okay. It was just a dream, everything is okay." Finally Tracy caught her breath. "Are you okay, do you wanna talk about it?"

"I...I'm fine. No, it was just a bad dream that's all. I'm sorry if I worried you. I hope I didn't wake you."

"No its okay. Actually I've been awake for a little while now. Its almost 10 a.m."

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner?" Tracy said sitting up in bed.

"I just didn't have the heart to but now I wish I had." Luke said and Tracy smiled at his concern.

Downstairs-

Alan walked towards the stairs but Monica's voice stopped him.

"And just might where would you be going?" Monica asked and Alan turned to face her.

"I was going to see how Tracy was feeling. Why?" Alan asked.

"Well I wouldn't go up there if I were you."Monica replied.

"And why would that be?" Alan asked still confused.

"Because I saw Luke going up there and I'm pretty sure he was going to see Tracy." Monica said. Alan gave her a confused look. "I just don't think you should go up there and get into a fight okay."

"Who says there will be a fight? I can go check on my sister without getting in a fight with her so-called husband."

"See you can't even talk about Luke without being rude, let alone talk with him and then it'll set him off and then Tracy."

"Why hasn't she divorced him yet?" Alan asked slightly angry. Monica rolled her eyes.

"Why do you seriously care? Its her life, let her live it! God forbid anyone in this family should actually be happy if you're not!" Monica said walking off. Edward walked up to Alan after Monica left.

"What was that all about?" Edward asked and Alan sighed.

"You don't wanna know." Alan replied.

"Okay. Well I just got off the phone with Justus." Edward said deciding to change the subject.

"Did he have any news about who's behind this all?" Alan asked.

"No but he said the police are working on it."

"Hopefully they'll find them soon so this can all be over."

"I just don't understand why they'd go after Luke." Edward said confused. Alan couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"You can't be serious. I'm sure there are thousands of reasons."

"And what would those be?" Tracy asked coming downstairs.

"Tracy, how are you feeling?" Edward asked.

"Fine daddy, thanks." Tracy replied and walked up to Alan. "So Alan, please do tell me what those reasons are that someone would be after my husband." Tracy said and Edward backed away from the two.

"You know it wasn't very long ago that you couldn't stand being married to him. What changed?"

"Don't change the subject Alan! I want an answer." Tracy said angry.

"We both know he's trouble and I'm sure plenty of people want him dead. Now I want my answer. What changed between the two of you?" Alan said becoming angry as well.

"That's enough! Now both of you need to calm down and stop attacking each other." Edward said trying to stop their fighting. "Tracy, you know Alan has a good reason to dislike Luke. And you," Edward said, pointing at Alan, "you need to lay off of your sister. Got it?"

"Yeah I got it." Alan said and walked off. Edward turned to Tracy.

"Yeah, yeah, I got it." Tracy said.

"So, you slept late this morning."

"Yes well that might have something to do with these medications they have me on."

"At least its good to know you're actually taking them." Edward smiled.

"Ha, ha, very funny." Tracy said and smirked.
