Shocking Update: Ava and Rafe are locked in the same place, Krisren and EJ’s new agreement Days of our lives spoilers
Salem is a city full of secrets, and EJ and Kristen DiMera are holding onto two of the most dangerous ones yet. Both siblings are playing a high-stakes game, each concealing a captive. EJ has Rafe locked away,
while Kristen is keeping Ava imprisoned. For now, their sinister schemes remain undiscovered, but the walls are closing in, and the shocking truth may soon be revealed.
As next week unfolds, EJ stumbles upon an unexpected twist that could alter everything. His carefully crafted plan begins to unravel when he visits an abandoned house—only to find
Ava tied up and struggling. His shock deepens when another presence emerges from the shadows: Rachel Blake, a woman shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Known in some circles as the enigmatic ‘Woman in White,’ Rachel’s sudden appearance sends an icy chill through EJ.
EJ initially believed he had been meticulous, hiding Rafe in the DEA basement. However, realizing the risk of discovery within the mansion, he opted to transfer his captive to a more discreet location—an abandoned house he thought was completely under his control. But fate had other ideas. Instead of simply checking on Rafe, EJ walks into a scene that leaves him shaken. Not only is Ava being held captive, but Rachel Blake’s presence makes the situation even more perilous.
Upon returning home, EJ’s uncharacteristic unease does not go unnoticed. Kristen immediately senses something is off. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” she quips, her sharp eyes studying him. And in a way, he has. It doesn’t take long for Kristen to put the pieces together, especially when EJ slips up and admits that he saw her mother. Kristen’s blood runs cold at the revelation. If EJ has been lurking around the Blake residence, he may have discovered far more than he should have. And if he knows about Ava’s captivity, their precarious arrangement could come crashing down.
Realizing the danger, Kristen confronts EJ, demanding answers. But EJ, ever the strategist, quickly turns the situation to his advantage. Both of them hold leverage over the other. If Kristen exposes Rafe’s abduction, EJ’s entire operation crumbles. But now that EJ knows Kristen’s secret, he has the upper hand. He makes a calculated offer: “I’ll keep quiet about your mother and Ava if you keep quiet about Rafe.”
Kristen eyes him warily. It’s a dangerous agreement, a delicate balance of power built on deception and mutual destruction. One false move could bring everything crashing down. Yet, at this point, neither has much of a choice. They strike a deal—one forged in secrecy and manipulation, ensuring that if one falls, the other will too.
The fate of Rafe and Ava hangs in the balance. Will they be discovered before it’s too late, or will EJ and Kristen’s ruthless games ensure their captives never see freedom again? One thing is certain: in Salem, no secret stays buried forever.
