Not my characters. I make zero dollars from this. Definitely AU! Just plugging our favorite characters into my original story.

WARNING! Some things will be alluded to and not described in excessive detail. I'm not a doctor or any medical professional. Which means there will be some creativity with the scenario to fit my goal. If something is a trigger for you. I apologize, this story will reference abuse, rape and domestic violence. There is a great deal of drawing your own conclusions on those fronts.

Thank you for all the reviews! I promise y'all we are going to burn the burg to the ground.

Helen POV

I've been pacing back and forth in my cell for the last hour, my attorney is late. Those very nice guards assure me he called and is on his way. Today the head guard brought me a very nice outfit that belongs to his mother for my court appearance. After all these years I will finally be free of this place. If anybody should have been here it is that horrible girl. The biggest mistake of my life was having her.

Valerie is my pride and joy and I cannot wait to help raise those children to be perfect members of the Burg. She keeps a perfect house, married a good man and keeps having children. What more could you ask for? The only downside is that I have to stay with my mother and get a job. Frank is being unreasonable. When I am released he will come to his senses, we can quietly marry again and move back into the Burg. Then he will have no contact with that girl. It is me or her and a husband puts his wife first.

That doctor is getting suspicious, I need to wait to break things off with him after I am released. It has been simple convincing him that I have changed. Just as simple as convincing everyone about Valerine. Hopefully, spending time with him Monday evening before the hearing will ensure he vouches for me. There is one thing that makes me uneasy. Earlier when Valerie visited, there was a hispanic man with tear drops on his face in the visiting room waiting for somebody. The whole time I was there he just stared at me and when I headed back to my cell, he still had not spoken.

Now, where is my lawyer? Does he not know who I am? Nobody should ever make me wait.

Edna POV

I just bid my guest goodbye. Finally, he just wouldn't leave. I understand he is infatuated with me but he has a wife at home to entertain. Just a bit longer and I can drop that judge. Helen, should not have been in there in the first place. If we had only pushed her harder off of that roof. Then none of these problems would have ever occurred. Poor Helen, I will need to find her a new suitable husband. She cannot be unmarried in the Burg.

Not to mention, she will not be living here forever. I am going to set her up in a small apartment in town. This is a last ditch effort if she does not quickly land a husband. Perhaps it is time to finish that bottle of wine out on the porch. Walking out to my rocking chair I sat my wine filled coffee mug on the table next to me.

There across the street was that skinny dark skinned man. He has been there off and on the past few days. Just staring at me. I wonder if Valerie would know what to do.

Valerie POV

Joe left to drive his mother and grandmother home. They wanted to come over and give us a gift for the new babies. Grandma Bella wants us to move into her house and she is going to move in with her daughter-in-law. Her house has more room for the kids and we can sell this place to cover the cost of anything else we will need. Especially, since Joe wants to keep trying till we have 3 boys. Having boys to carry on the Morelli name.

Joe has been so great lately. He is the talk of the police department due to being such an amazing family man. There are even talks about him being up for a promotion. It is what he has always wanted. I know there is a rumor that he has somebody on the side but I like to remind him we have such a big family and how lucky he is we are happily married. Imagine the child support. Luckily, mother will be out soon and I will have help with these kids. I wonder if Daddy will beg her forgiveness and they can get remarried. Then we can really be done with my horrible sister.

I tried to tell him about that scary man I've seen outside this week. He had tattoos and really made me nervous. Joe thinks I am crazy and he's a cop. This house is safe. Oh the phone again.

Unknown POV

I had that nice driver of mine park across the street from my daughter's house and watched it be cleared out by FBI agents. Not to mention 4 of my grandchildren being arrested. It seems my grandson finally came to his senses. Good. It was about time. I wonder if Julio's ex-wives will hunt him down for all that alimony he won't be paying. Laughingly, I told my driver to head back to my hotel. It was time for dinner and to call Ella. She always had the best gossip.

Jeanne Ellen

Ranger called me for a special assignment. He told me it would be brief and a female would be needed in case the client needed to go into the bathroom. My husband wasn't thrilled about it since it was supposed to be our vacation. He perked up when Ranger told him to join me and we could use the private jet to leave from Trenton. His treat.

I know this is a sensitive assignment and the way he sounded, it felt really important. Plus, it will be good to see my brother Ram. Not to mention Lester always has the best gossip. Looks like our ride to Trenton is here and I meet the client. My husband and I decided that I am retiring after this. We want a slower pace of life and kids. As we slid into the car all I could do is count down the days till then.
