Goodbye/Hello

End of chapter thirteen: The missing son

"Alright, I'll go lay down with her but only for a few minutes."

That few minutes had turned into fifteen minutes by the time Alan had finished cleaning the dining room and went to find his son. His search wasn't long in fact he found him in the first place he had looked. Entering his son's old bed room he smiled at seeing his tuff as nails agent son laying on his bed with a young child held tightly in his arms. Taking a few minutes to take in what he was seeing the father in him kicked in and he gently pulled the blankest over the sleeping pair before heading off to do some work from home.

Chapter fourteen: A Few Answers

As Don and the team looked for any lead to where Michelle might be Michelle herself was doing anything she could to stay awake. Right now she was letting her mind wonder back to her now bear finger. She didn't remember much after Reeves got her in the car. However, the moment Don's ring was taken from her she could tell clear as day.

"You won't need this anymore." Reeves had snarled at her as he had yanked it off.

"Here why don't you put this where it belongs instead of on this slut!" Michelle kept hearing Reeves talking to someone but she had no idea who. The way she was laying and whatever he had placed over her mouth made it hard for her to move around.

"Thank you, I will." That voice was one she had heard before but where. Michelle kept thinking to herself if only she could move around to see the other persons face. That had been a month ago.

Over that month it had come to her who Reeves helper more than likely was. Now she just had to find a way to prove it and get a message to Don somehow.

"Reeves, we both know that you and your partner aren't going to let me live so why not cut your loss and run while you can."

"Your right you will not be living much longer. But, you're wrong to think that anything will happen to my partner as you call them and I."
"No, I'm right when Don and Colby find my body they will not give up until they find my killers. That means that no matter where you and partner go you will always have to be looking over your shoulder for the long arm of the LA FBI!" Michelle knew that she was pushing his buttons but they were so easy to push.

"I don't think he would hurt Rae do you?"

"What does she have to do with this?" She stammered out hearing her child's name.

"That's rich. What would MY child have to do with anything? I wonder."
"You listen to me and you listen good. LEAVE RAE ALONE! She has no idea who you are."

"I gathered as much when you told her to tell Daddy you loved him. Then instead of coming to me she ran to that agent."

"Agent Don Eppes is the only father she will ever know!"

"NO, when you're gone I will be going to get my child and she will head home with me."

"Yea right and just how are you going to get her away from Don?"

"With this" He held out a paper for her to see. Looking at it from her spot tied to the bed she shook as she took in what the paper was.

"That's right its papers saying that Rae is my child and that she will be going back to North Carolina with me as soon as we can."

"You can't do this!" By now Michelle knew how tight the ropes and cuffs holding her to the bed are but that didn't stop her from trying to get free at that moment. Nor did it stop him from laughing at her attempts to get free.
"Oh but I can. See you took her out of North Carolina without letting me know. There for I had my partner talk to a judge. Turns out since you did that then I can take her home with me."

"That's bull shit and you know it!" She spat realizing that the tables had now turned and that he was playing her like he use to when they had been a couple.

"Why would you take her from her home to live with you? You haven't wanted anything to do with her since she was born until now why the change?"
"She's my child what more do you need to know?"

"She is loved by Don and the Eppes family you can't do this! You can't move her again from the family that loves her! Don and Colby won't let you! They will find a way around that paper!"

"They can try but they won't find away. Beside Colby and Charlie will be gone for something to do with Charlie's job by that time and Don let just say that he has something else he is worrying about now. It sure isn't you!"

Michelle wasn't sure what to feel at that moment she now had a time frame for her own death but, at the same time was worried cause if they were gone and Don was busy then Reeves could push past the family and take Rae with him. The thought of her child going anywhere with this sicko made her sick on her empty stomach.

"If you think you can do it then I would love to see you fail."

"Nice try you won't be around to see me fail. In fact in a matter of days you won't be around at all." He laughed in her face before running his hands over her beaten naked body.

"It's fun time." He smiled looking at the clock above her head and running his hands from her chest to her pussy.

"Not going to fight this time?" She only let her head fall to her left and let him take her body once again. After finding his release once again all over her chest Reeves headed to the door. Only this time he stopped and turned.

"By the way Agent Eppes, Don who you love so much had another woman in his bed last night." It was true another woman had been in Don's bed last night but, Don himself hadn't been there. Reeves didn't see the point in letting that information out.

"You're easily replaced for all men it would seem." He spat at her before walking out the door. It was almost three hours later if Michelle went by the clock above the door before Reeves returned. This time he had dirt on his clothing as if he had been digging.

"You don't know if Don had anyone in his bed last night or not." She yelled at him as he sat foot in the door.

"Oh but your wrong. I saw it. My partner and I have been watching the Eppes team for some time now and I saw with my own two eyes that there was a woman lying in his bed all night."

"I don't believe that you can see them!"

"Is that so?"

"You haven't changed. You're still that lost little man who wanted mommy just like you were that year I wasted on you!" Unlocking the cuffs on her hands and legs and linking them to each other Reeves carried Michelle into a living room where he placed her on the hard floor. Turning on TV she saw not only Don's home and Charlie's but David's and her mother's as well.

"How"

"How did I get this? Easy my partner is a wiz." Michelle rolled her eyes at this. The next few hours Reeves cleaned himself up and then fixed him something to eat it was nearing midnight when he let Michelle up to go to the rest room and a small bit to eat. It was nearing one when she once again felt his hands and hardness on her body.

"Only forty eight more hours to live I guess I better get as much fun out of you as I can." His hated laugh filled the air in the small three room cabin that she was being held in. After he got what he wanted again leaving Michelle hurting from his attack on her body he headed to bed. Michelle tried to find some sleep and a way to get a message to Don.
