IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Before we begin, There are a few things i need to say:
1) A reader of this story contacted me to tell me that they were disappointed in the seemingly harsh tone of some of the reviews. This hurts me as an author to know my content is is being judged by the words of others. I LOVE reading comments because you guys give FANTASTIC advice and help me look at things in a different perspective. But it would be great if we could remember that not only do i see these comments, other readers will too. I understand if you have some constructive criticism, but if you really don't like a character, or where I am taking them, please PM me. It's more efficient and it won't make others feel uncomfortable. Thank you.
2) The content of this chapter is very... gross. It has sexual themes and references to reproductive organs. If you don't want to read the chapter, that's totally ok.

Hank Voight sat across the table from the young woman, as Hailey watched from behind the two way mirror.
" So, you're telling me that you raped my officer?"
The woman looked down and nodded. Maddison was her name.
" They thought I was a snitch. That i had ratted them out to the police. So they kidnapped me. They beat me. And put me in a room with detective Halstead. They tied me to pipes on the wall. He was tied to the ceiling. He-he was always so nice. Told me it was going to be okay. That we would get out. He looked injured but he kept telling me he was fine."
" at one point he tried to escape... guess they caught him… brought him back… they tied him up… a-and one of them pulled out a pocket knife, threatened to cut o-off-" The woman breathed in sharply.
"They threatened to castrate him."
Hank found it hard to keep it together.
"Sometimes they would come in and just start beating him for no reason. Sometimes it was with their bare hands, sometimes they would use a pipe. And they would inject him with stuff. And one day, they had beaten him till he was barely awake. Then they got- they got on top of me. They took turns raping me. A-a-and they raped him in ways that I don't want to describe. Then, they, they untied him, put a gun to my head, and told me to do it. I didn't want to, but they said they would kill me. I didn't want to. I didn't want-" Madison was crying so hard right now.
It made sense now why they had found foreign DNA on Jay's penis. Why they hadn't found her DNA on him was unknown to Hank. He wondered why Jay hadn't said something about the woman. But then again, he hadn't really asked.
"He had told me he was a cop. Before he was drugged we had talked about where we worked, he told me about his partner Halley or Hailey or something like that. Told me about you. Said he was proud to be in your unit. Told me he worked for the 21st. They took me somewhere else so I don't know what happened to him after that. So, when I woke up in the snow I figured this was the best place to come. Lucky that I know this city well enough to find my way around."
"I appreciate how brave you are. Coming down, telling us this experience. Thank You for trusting us with this information."
Hailey had heard enough. She was done listening to the horrible things they did to Jay. She walked away, suddenly needing to be next to the man she loved. Tears clouded her vision as she drove to the hospital.
She breezed by Will, and stopped at the door of Jay's room.
" Jay," he spun around from his spot at the window sill and started walking towards her. She practically crashed into him with a hug. A soft groan escaped his lips. She hugged tightly and Jay hugged her back. He relaxed as he felt her head on his pec. After a few seconds he went to pull away but her strong arms wouldn't allow him to.
" no stay please."
"Okay" he whispered. He could see that Hailey needed this. They hugged in silence, Jay never letting go of Hailey. He started to get worried about Hailey's quietness when he felt Hailey's shoulders shaking.
" I'm here Hailey." He said softly.
" I'm so sorry you had to go through that-" She whispered.
" what?" Jay said in shock, hoping she didn't know what specifically happened.
"Maddison came to the district." Jay tensed up.
" she told us what happened. Or Voight at least." Jay's head started spinning.
" did she?"
" I don't know all of what happened, but i got a general picture."
Jay felt himself starting to get angry. He wanted to argue that it wasn't her information to tell but yes, it was in fact her information to tell. But he wasn't ready to talk about it.
"Oh"
" I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"For not having better eyes and ears on you."
" Hailey it's not your fault, and I'm starting to believe that it's not mine either. It's just…. something we're gonna have to deal with."
Hailey closed her eyes and breathed in his scent, listening to his heartbeat.
" I'm proud of you… for being brave."
" I kept thinking of you… and i just kept reminding myself that you had to be coming."
" I love you, so much."
" I love you more than you will ever know, Hailey."
