*RECAP* Olivia awoke to the man stroking her cheek. She immediately turned her head away and shouted,

"Don't touch me!"

He grabbed her by the chin and forced her to look at him.

"Don't speak to me that way bitch! Let me get a few things clear around here! I own you now! You do as I say! You will treat my son like he is your own, you are his mum now! Only speak when you are told. If I catch you trying to escape or breaking one of my rules you will be sorry! Understand me?"

She ignored him.

"I SAID DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!"

She looked at him with venom in her eyes before spitting on him.

"YOU STUPID BITCH!", he screamed as he began attacking her.

She cried out in pain but refused to let the tears that were threatening to fall show. After one last punch to her ribs he went to make dinner for himself and Toby. They sat at the table eating and talking about their day when Toby asked where Olivia was.

"Mummy doesn't feel well just now son. We'll see how she feels later."

That night Toby cuddled up beside Olivia in bed and tried to make her feel better. The detective felt sorry for Toby and wanted to escape and take him with her. His dad was out of control. The next morning Olivia was untied and forced to make breakfast for Toby and the perp but she herself was forbidden to eat.

"Daddy, I like this mummy. Can we keep her?"

"Yes son sure we can.", he smiled back.

He turned to look at Olivia who was horrified and grinned evilly at her.

"You're here forever Livvie."

-At the precinct-

"Captain, DNA was Liv's. We have to find her. And I'm going to kill the sick son of a bitch who has taken her when we do."

"Don't do anything stupid Elliot. Warner wants to see you. She said she has something that might be useful to you."

-At the morgue-

"Ah Elliot, just who I was looking for. I found a hair in the blood. It wasn't Olivia's so I did some tests. I found out that the DNA was from a young male no older than ten. I also found a partial on Olivia's ring which belongs to the boy. My guess is you find the boy and you will find Liv."

"Thank you Melinda. I'd do anything to get her back safely. I can't lose her. I love her."

"Bring her home safe El."

*Present day*

"Olivia baby? I know this is really hard but can you tell me what happened to you? It's really important that we get your statement as soon as possible."

"I know El. I'll try." she replied drained and upset. "The perp used his son to lower me in. He seemed really nice at first and we chatted for a while. When I went to leave he hit me over the head. I woke up tied to a chair and he made me read to Toby. The boy kept calling me mum. When I finished the story he knocked me out and tied me to his bed naked. I woke up to him stroking my cheek and when I refused to let him he beat me. That's pretty much how the first four days went. I woke up, cared for Toby then got a beating. He wouldn't let me have any food until the fourth day and even then it was just some bread. The next few days he left me alone. I think he began to trust me because he left me alone with Toby. On the eighth day my biggest fear came true. He got really mad with me for sneaking some leftover food and tried to stab me but Toby saved me."

*Flashback*

"You stupid bitch! I told you if you broke the rules you'd pay!" he screamed as he lunged at her with a kitchen knife.

"Daddy no!" Toby shouted as he jumped in front of Liv.

The little boy collapsed to the floor, blood spluttering from his mouth.

"Why did you try to hurt mummy, da..."

The small boy didn't get to finish his question as the life was torn away from him far too soon.

*End flashback*

Olivia was sobbing hysterically at the painful memory of that horrible day.

"I killed him El. It was my fault. If I hadn't been so greedy then Toby would still be alive."

"Don't blame yourself. It wasn't your fault Liv. What happened then?"

"He made me wash Toby then he carefully placed his body in bed so it looked like he was sleeping. Then he threw me into the wall and punched me repeatedly in the face."

Elliot looked at the newly healed scar on Olivia's cheekbone. He would find the man who done this to her and he'd pay.

"Later that night he used chloroform to knock me out and when I woke up I was on a dirty old mattress locked in a dark room. I wasn't restrained but there was only 1 window which was pretty high up and I had no strength after constant beatings and not enough food."

Elliot gazed at Liv and couldn't help but notice how malnourished and unhealthy she looked. Her bones were protruding, her skin was a pale yellow colour and her once glistening eyes were dull with large dark circles framing them. It hurt him a lot to see her this way.

"Olivia you know I love you and I always will. We'll find him."
