Emily's POV

I woke up the next morning to a knock at the door. "Oh hello Monsieur." Anne said. "She is upstairs sleeping. I'll go get her." Footsteps came up the stairs as I got out of bed. "Madame Emily."

"Come in." She came in and helped me get my corset on. "I'm going to have to stop wearing this soon." I pointed out.

"You have a visitor. He's waiting down stairs."

"Erik." She finished lacing up my corset as I put I a dress.

"No Madame." She went downstairs. The feeling of disappointment spread through me. Where was he Madame Giry said she had him meet me here. But he wasn't here. I went down stairs and saw Monsieur Jean and a young man standing in my parlor.

"Hello, Jean who might this be?" Jean greeted me and the young man came closer.

"Surely you haven't forgotten me." I thought for a moment then my eyes lit up.

"Philipe!"I shouted startling everyone. I wrapped my arms around hi" I announced. Once we were outside we took a seat on the outdoor chairs Jean had purchased for me.

"I heard you moved here so I had to come and visit. I just had to see my wife." He joked. Philipe and I were very young when we met and our parents joked that we would get married one day. We thought we would so we pretended that we did before he moved away.

"It's been so long." I said hugging him again.

"Too long." He added. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a man on a black stallion. I starred for a moment before realizing who it was.

Erik's POV

I had left the hotel and made my way to the house I stopped outside trying to figure out if it was the right one. After a moment two men went in. I paused if this was Emily's houses who were those men? After a few moments they came outside with a young brunet girl. I stared for a moment. It was Emily.

She hugged the young man which made me stop Caesar so I could figure out what was going on. Maybe Madame Giry was right. She didn't love me. I tried to listen to the conversation. "I had to see my wife." Did she move on and marry someone already. No she couldn't have. Could she?

She turned her head and looked at me she seemed to strain to see me. After a moment she started walking toward me. I jumped down from Caesar. "Emily! What are you doing?" The boy she had been hugging ran up to her and tried to make her go back in the house.

I took a step and he pulled out a sword. "Who are you?" He demanded I pulled out my own weapon and took another step not bothering to answer.

"Put those away!" Emily yelled as she tried to walk towards me but got pushed back by the boy.

"Who are you?" I asked calmly. Clearly upsetting the boy he came a step closer.

"I asked first, now either tell me who you are and why you're here or leave." I didn't bother to answer.

"I don't want trouble Monsieur, I just want to speak to Emi-," I was cut off by the man lunging at me with his sword I fought back and tried to continue but Emily began screaming at us.

Emily's POV

"Stop!" I yelled as their swords clashed together. "Stop fighting!" I ran towards them but Philipe pushed me aside so I wouldn't get in the way. I ran up to Erik and he tried to do the same. He steped over to me and just as he did Philipe's sword came into range.

"No!" I yelled before stepping in front of Erik.

"Emily!" Both me yelled simultaneously. I fell in to Erik's arms. "Look what you've done!" Erik yelled as he picked me up. Jean's eyes grow wide when we cam closer.

"I'll go for the doctor!" He said running to the stables to fetch his horse. Erik set me on the bed and grabbed a cloth and a bowl of water. He began to place the cloth on my would to stop the bleeding.

"Why did you do that?" He asked as he held the wet cloth on my skin.

"I-I don't know." I said weakly.

"Don't speak." He said. "Where is that stupid boy? I'll kill him for this." He went to stand up. I grabbed his arm and winced as my side throbbed. He turned and sat back down.

"Don't move, you'll only make it worse. God Emily, you didn't even think about the baby." I realized he was right and I began to panic.

"Oh g-god the baby. I-I am so, sorry E-Erik." He paused and kissed my head.

"Emily it's," He paused and looked at me then frantically looked at the wound. I felt things fading. "Emily, Emily!" He yelled as everything went black.

Oh no! Emily!
