Sabrina furrowed her eyebrows at Michael, "What? I thought that Alexis said that us being married, proving that we can provide a stable and loving home for AJ is our best shot at keeping custody."

Michael sat down on the couch and Sabrina followed suit.

After a moment Michael said, "The only reason that Kiki and Morgan aren't in jail right now is because I dropped the charges so Sonny would give me AJ back. If I reinstate the charges, Kiki and the precious son Morgan will go to prison for drugging me."

Michael pulled his phone out of his pocket, "I'll call Dante."

Sabrina pulled the phone from Michael, "I don't really know if that's the best idea."

Michael looked at Sabrina begrudgingly, "Sabrina. Morgan and Kiki drugged me and could have killed AJ."

Sabrina said, "Michael. I, I get that. I do. But, I also understand why Morgan and Kiki did what they did."

Michael looked at Sabrina like he didn't even know her, "What?! You are the one who proved that they drugged me and that AJ never should have been taken from my custody. They—they should be in prison for switching out my allergy meds with a roofie."

Sabrina sighed deeply, "Look, I'm not saying that what Morgan and Kiki did was right, but I understand why they did what they did. Michael, after Gabriel died, I was in a really bad way. After talking to Carlos, we both thought that Ava put Rafe up to causing my accident. And because I was so devastated over losing my son, I tried to get back at Ava by drugging her. Trying to cause her to go into pre-mature labor and causing her baby to die."

Michael took one of Sabrina's hands, "That was different. Your baby died and you wanted justice for your son. AJ didn't die. Plus, she isn't Morgan and Kiki's child."

Sabrina sighed, "But to them, it was like a death. You didn't let them see AJ. To them, it was like she was gone. Look, Michael, Kiki and Morgan understand what they did was wrong. I don't think that you need to send them to prison. They get it. I think that being free and not being able to be in AJ's life is a way worse punishment then going to Pentonville."

Sabrina paused for a moment, "I am so lucky not to be in prison or Shadybrook right now. Michael, please. Just let them go. Let it go."

Michael stayed silent for a moment, "Okay. Okay. You're right. I won't call Dante and reinstate the charges."

Sabrina chuckled quietly to herself, "What's that saying? 'Happy Wife, Happy Life'?"

Michael smiled, "You're not my wife. Yet."

Sabrina glanced at her empty left ring finger and stiffened her body, "Well, let's fix that. Let's get married as soon as we can."


I will post the next chapter soon. Please review and tell me what you think.
