He thought he was hiding his growing attraction to a taken woman, but Rafe (Galen Gerig) will quickly learn that his secret is very much out on Days of Our Lives. 

Paul Uncovers A Shocking Secret

As he began secretly working with Hope (Kristian Alfonso) on a case where the two teamed up to investigate Clyde (James Read), he started to find himself liking her more and more. However, considering her relationship with Aiden (Daniel Cosgrove), he has since begun to pull back, hoping it will help keep his secret feelings safe, and allow him to one day still keep a friendship with the detective.  

However, after noticing that Kate (Lauren Koslow) is beginning to tire of her romance with Clyde and has started listening to the endless warnings she's received about him from everyone, Rafe asked his one-time lover if she was finally coming to her senses -- only to find out she has figured out his secret, and knows he has feelings for Hope.

Now, Rafe will be forced to not only defend himself about his attraction to Hope, but will also need to find a way to ensure that Kate stays quiet as well. It wasn't too long ago that she was continually throwing a wrench into his relationship with Jordan, after the two fell in love when she came to town and worked as his physical therapist. In fact, Kate's relationship with Clyde is a byproduct of her continually trying to mess with that relationship, meaning she may not be above messing with anyone Rafe finds attractive now either.  

Days of Our Lives airs Monday-Friday at 1 p.m. on NBC.
