The drama is seriously heating up on Days of Our Lives, and as secrets loom and threaten to become exposed in Salem, the lives of the town's residents are set to be changed forever.

Rafe and Kate Hook-Up Again?

One huge secret that were already revealed was just who was responsible for murdering Nick Fallon -- and it turned out to be his on-again/off-again girlfriend Gabi Hernandez (Camila Banus), who is now serving a prison sentence. Her departure has left her loved ones, including roommates Will (Guy Wilson) and Sonny (Freddie Smith), and her brother, Rafe (Galen Gering), devastated by their loss. Rafe dealt with his sadness by hopping into bed with Kate (Lauren Koslow) once again. Now, Will and Sonny will be forced to adjust to a life raising Will's daughter with Gabi, without her mother.

Another major secret that has already come to light is the one Nicole (Arianne Zucker) was keeping from fiancé Eric (Greg Vaughan). She had destroyed evidence that proved he was drugged the night he had sex with Kristen, which had kept him from rejoining the priesthood. However, just as the couple planned to leave for Vegas and elope, the secret was revealed and the engagement was called off. Now, a despondent Nicole will wind up in a major catfight with Eric's sister, Sami (Alison Sweeney), after Sami expresses her anger over her brother being tricked so cruelly once again.

Jordan and Ben Worry About Their Past Catching Up With Them?

However, one secret on the brim of being blown wide open is the one Jordan (Chrishell Stause) and Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) have been keeping about their past. No one knows they're brother and sister yet, or what they're hiding, but after her romp with Rafe, Kate will overhear the two talking -- and may stumble across the truth.

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