Wow, an update so soon. Heads up, this is a pretty lengthy chapter soooo. Also, I apologize for the end. I was forced to do such a thing. All mistakes are mine. :)

Melinda clicked the enter bar twice and Olivia and Hank's picture popped up. "You two are Erin's real parents."

"What?" Olivia's breathing had sped up and she was blinking fast to fight back tears. She remembered being pregnant by Hank. She remembered them both deciding to place their daughter up for adoption. But she had no idea their child would grow up to be Erin.

"You don't remember being pregnant?"

"No, I remember it well.." She swallowed the lump in her throat. "I never thought I would see my daughter again." Then she noticed that Hank didn't have the same reaction as her. She turned to look at him. "Did you know? Does she know?"

Hank couldn't lie to her, especially not in this situation. "I never thought I would see you again." He could see the pain in her eyes and it killed him to know he was the reason behind it.

"You ass!" She hit him in the chest. "You got to spend so much time with her, and didn't think you should tell me? Especially now that we're dating again?" She let the tears fall. She had never felt so betrayed in her entire life.

Melinda stood there awkwardly watching her friend fall apart. "I think you should go." She said to Hank.

"Olivia, I'm sorry."

She put up her hand to signal him to stop talking. "I can't deal with you right now. I just want to finish this case so you can get the hell out of my city." She said before storming out of her office.

He sighed and fell against the wall. He fucked up. Olivia was right. When they started dating again, he should have told her. She trusted him, and he betrayed that trust. He had lost her again.

"Why did you think that was a good idea?" Melinda asked crossing her arms across her chest.

"I wasn't thinking." He replied.

"Obviously. You better find a way to make this up to her. The last thing you need is her squad coming after you." She saw how happy Olivia was with Hank and knew that her heart was truly broken. She wouldn't be surprised if he ended up on her table in the next few days. "And me." She quickly added. Olivia was one of her closest friends, and no one got away with hurting her.

Hank pushed his lips out a little as he processed the threat. He walked out of the office and the building to see Olivia leaning against the car.

"Benson.." He tried to talk to her, but she cut him off.

"Just get in the car and drive." She said opening the door now that he unlocked it.

He walked around the car and got in. He looked over at her and she was looking out of the window avoiding eye contact. "I love you." He put the key in the ignition, the car in drive, and drove off.

"What did you get from Warner?" Dodds asked as soon as he saw the duo walk back into the squadroom.

"Nothing." They both answered at the same time.

One look and Erin and Fin both knew that they got bad news.

"Well, Chicago sent us the results of the DNA they ran there, and they got a hit in the system. Mason Wycoski served two years in Cook County for drug possession and ten years in Rikers for, get this, kidnapping." Carisi said oblivious to the awkward tension in the room.

"What's his connection to the Williams?"

"We can't find one, except they visited him quite often for both stents, and they've called him twelve times since he got out, which was one week before the kidnappings started."

"So, we got the mind and the muscle. Now, we just need to find the kids."

"Wait a minute." Antonio said approaching the screen. "This guy was at the conference." He turned around to look at Atwater. "Remember him? He said if we ever need another security job that we should call him. I have his number saved." He pulled out his phone.

"Oh, yeah. He told us it was a job that no one liked to do, so it paid big." Atwater added.

"And you guys didn't think this would be important to mention because?" Amanda asked them.

They both just shrugged. "Didn't get a bad vibe from him."

Olivia rubbed her forehead and sighed. "Antonio, call him. Set up a meeting. The rest of you just find something." She said before walking into her office and slamming the door behind her.

Everyone exchanged looks between each other trying to figure out what just happened.

"You heard her. Get to work." Hank barked out.

They all scrambled into different directions except for Fin. He walked up to Hank. "What happened?"

"You gotta talk to her." Hank said before walking away. The last thing he wanted to do was mix their personal business into the middle of the case.

"Mason wants Atwater and I to meet him at a warehouse tomorrow morning."

"Good. That gives us time to plan." Erin said before she looked around the room noticing the Hank nor Olivia were in sight. If they both were in a bad mood, she rather deal with Olivia over him. At least Olivia tried to hide it. She walked up to Olivia's office door and knocked before she poked her head in. "Hey, we got a new lead."

Olivia turned around to look at Erin. She had been staring out of the window thinking about everything. Since she was fourteen, Hank got to be in Erin's life. Neither one of them wanted to place her up for adoption, but it was the best choice for them.

"Olivia, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Hank, I'm nineteen with no family. You're not moving to New York with me, and I can't stay here anymore. My mom already said she was going to deal with me when I get back. We can't bring a child into this environment." It killed her to know that their daughter was going to be calling someone else mom and dad, but they were just kids themselves. They couldn't handle the responsibility of being parents.

She was right. He was about to join the police academy, and he had heard Serena's threats. He would never let his child be in that environment. He didn't want Olivia to go back there either. He had begged her to just stay and start her life over here, but that was her mom. Regardless of their relationship, that was the only family she has. "You know I'm always going to love you no matter what happens in our lives. Thirty years from now, I'll be still thinking about how you changed my life." He kissed her forehead gently as he rubbed her stomach.

He got to spend the last sixteen years with their daughter. The daughter that she never thought she would meet again. "Okay." She simply said. She didn't trust her voice.

She found herself staring at Erin trying to see what features she had, but she was all Voight. The only thing she was responsible for was the dark brown hair that Erin also liked to lighten up. It brought a small smile to her face.

"Liv?" Erin walked further into the office. "Is everything okay between the two of you guys?"

"We'll be fine." Olivia said with a reassuring head nod.

"I have a feeling that that's not true, but okay." She said before she walked out of the office.

Olivia couldn't help but to let out a small chuckle. Erin was their daughter. There was no doubt about that, and now she was beating herself up for not knowing. She's known Erin for almost two years, and it never once crossed her mind. Looking back, everything was starting to add up.

Erin had clung to Olivia almost immediately and Olivia did the same. Hank always commented on their strong bond, and that bastard knew why.

Why did he have to keep it a secret from her? He knew how much the adoption affected her and he kept her out of the loop all this time. There was so much she missed in the last two years, and she could have been there for her more.

She kicked her desk and let out a sigh of frustration. She felt beyond overwhelmed but she had to keep it together so they could close this case.

Even though they weren't talking at the moment, Hank was still staying at Olivia's apartment. She had told him that she was going to stick around at the precinct a little longer, and he knew it was so she could avoid talking to him.

He couldn't be mad at her, though. He brought this upon himself. Did he want her to talk to him? Of course, but Olivia was not the type of person to talk about her feelings when forced.

He walked into her apartment and let the stress of the case and his personal life show on his face. He was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't even notice Lucy in front of him.

"Rough day?" She asked.

"That's an understatement." He said with a sigh. "Kid is sleeping?"

"Yup. Knocked out."

"Alright. Head home." He patted her on the shoulder softly.

"Don't have to tell me twice." She said with a small smile on her face. She got her things together, told Hank bye, and left.

Hank was now left alone with his thoughts. He knew in his heart that he should have told Olivia about Erin. As her birth mother, she deserved to know. But he knew Olivia. As soon as Olivia found out, she wouldn't have been able to keep it a secret. He didn't want Erin having to deal with anything else if she didn't need to.

Hell, it seemed bad, but if it was up to him, it would still be a secret. They already acted like mother and daughter and a title wasn't going to change that.

But it was selfish. It was selfish for him to keep them apart from each other because of his own feelings. Between dealing with Bunny and Camille's death, the least he could do was give Erin the positive mother figure she needed in her adult life.

"You're here." Olivia said a little more relieved than she intended. Yes, she was pissed off at him. She wanted to kick his ass multiple times, but she needed to know why. She needed to know why he kept this a secret for so long. Why he felt the need to hide the identity of their daughter from her.

"I can go if you want." He said standing up from the couch.

"No, you're fine." She walked into the kitchen. "Beer?"

"Please." He said sitting back down. He actually felt nervous around her. From the moment he laid eyes on her a little over thirty years, he had never felt nervous. Now that their future was so unclear, he had no idea what to do or say.

She grabbed two beers and walked over to him. She sat them down on the coffee table. "I'm going to go check on Noah before we talk." She said quietly.

"Okay." He said before he grabbed his beer off of the table.

Olivia walked into Noah's bedroom and smiled for the first time in the last couple of days. Seeing her son could make her happy no matter what day she was having. She walked over to his bed, leaned down and kissed his forehead softly before she whispered, "I love you."

He stirred a little, but didn't wake up. She quietly walked out of the room and closed the door behind her. She took a deep breath as she prepared herself to have this conversation with Hank. She didn't want to lose him again, but how could she trust him after this?

She walked back into the living room and sat on the couch, leaving enough room for another person to sit between them. She grabbed her beer, open it, and took a long swig.

"I should have told you." He said breaking the silence between them. "You deserved to know."

"You think?" She spat at him, but she took a deep breath. They were going to get nowhere if this turned into an argument. "Does Erin know?"

"No."

She finally looked at him for the first time that night. "Oh, you think my reaction is bad? She's going to kill you."

He nodded. "You're absolutely right, and I deserve it."

"She's our baby, and you kept her from me. You kept us from each other. You are one selfish son of a bitch, you know that? You only think about yourself. How was you keeping this to yourself beneficial for me or her? As her parent, as a man, you could have at least told her!" Olivia cried out. God, how could he not see how idiotic this was? Erin already had a bad childhood, and having a mother as an addict, Olivia know Erin beat herself up and couldn't believe that she came from someone so wicked. "I should have kept her." She whispered. "If she was going to be raised in a fucked up environment, it could have been at least with family."

He expected her to be angry, he expected her to scream at him for hours, but she wasn't. She was keeping her composure which means, she was hurt more than he could imagine. "I didn't think we would ever cross paths again. There would have been no point in telling her she was adopted if I couldn't locate you."

"Henry, we've been dating for almost two years! You cannot use that excuse." Her voice was harsh, full of emotions, and she was on the verge of tears.

Henry. He was not making it out of here alive. "You're right. Everything you're saying is right. Tell me how I can fix this. Tell me how I can fix us, our family."

She took another long sip of beer and stared straight ahead. She couldn't look at him because all she wanted to do was fall into his arms. "I don't think you can."

That was the last thing he wanted to hear. He promised when they started dating again that he would never lose her again. "I love you, Olivia." He reached out to brush a stray hair out of her face, but she flinched.

"Don't. Touch. Me." He lost every right to her mind and body.

He brought his hand back to his side. "I'll go to a hotel the remainder of the trip." He got up from the couch. "Can I kiss the kid goodnight?"

"Do whatever you want, I just want you gone." She had never been so upset and disappointed at him in her entire life. They went through a lot as friends and as a couple, but nothing could top this.

"Wired belts? How come we've never got to use those?" Fin asked a little jealous.

"When was the last time you guys did something as dangerous as this?" Mike, their tech said with a slight teasing tone.

"Touche." He said crossing his arms and continued to watch Antonio and Atwater get wired up.

"We already checked out the warehouse to see places we can hide. You guys protect each other." Hank said.

"Always, boss."

"It's right on the pier, so SWAT is already there in an unmarked boat along with being on foot with us." Amanda informed them. "If the kids are there, we're getting them today."

Olivia was in the corner putting on her bullet-proof vest. She was half-listening to what was happening. She was trying to put her all in this case, but it was hard knowing that Hank was still there. It didn't help that she could feel his eyes on her at every moment.

"Let me help you." He whispered before tightening the vest on her.

"I'm not a child, Sergeant Voight." She said in an annoyed voice, but let him finishing the vest on for her.

"We're back to formal titles? Ouch." He said stepping away from her.

She just rolled her eyes and walked away from him. "Is everyone ready? I want everyone to come back alive and healthy. We all go in, we all come in. Got it?"

They all gave her reassuring nods.

"Let's go." Dodds said.

"Hey, Liv? You want to ride with me?" Fin asked. He knew there was something up between her and Voight, and the last thing he wanted to do was bail her out of jail for murder charges.

"Please." She said with a sigh of relief and followed him out of the precinct.

"You know you gotta tell me what's going on between the two you." Fin said as they waited outside the warehouse.

"Melinda didn't tell you?" She asked with a raised brow. "I'm surprised."

"I am, too." He paused and waited for Olivia to open to him. "So, I'm going to have to pry this out of you?"

She looked over at him and saw that he was being serious. She know that he meant well, but this was the last thing she wanted to talk about.

"Listen, we can be in this car for another twenty minutes or three hours. I'm a patient man." He said leaning back in his seat.

She let out a groan. "You're going to find out regardless, but if you say something to anyone, I will not hesitate to shoot you, Odafin." She said with all seriousness in her voice.

"I know you will."

She took a deep breath. "You know Erin?"

"Your mini me? Yes."

So, everyone saw it but her. "Funny you say that since she's my daughter." She said bluntly.

"Wait, what?" He said to make sure he heard her correctly. He started counting on his fingers. "When? How? Who?"

She slapped his hands down and slightly chuckled. "I was nineteen, and you know how babies are made."

He was slight for a moment as he processed the information. "Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm going to guess Voight is your baby daddy?"

"Yup."

"Now, I'm going to use my detective skills. You didn't know Erin was your daughter because I know you would act different around her, but did Voight know?"

Olivia was always amused at the childlike attitude Fin used when he was around her. No matter how serious the conversation was, he always had a way of making her smile. "He did."

"Which is why you're pissed at him." Fin said in an aha voice. "It all makes sense now."

"Any other questions, officer?"

"I mean, you're going to forgive him, right? You obviously love him." Fin had seen Olivia in a handful of relationships, and he knew this was the one that meant the most to her. And now he understood why. They had a child together, which made their love even stronger.

"Probably." She couldn't lie to him or herself. She loved the hell out of this man, and never wanted to lose him again. She just needed time to get over this bump in the road.

"So, that's a yes?" He said knowing his friend.

"It's not a no."

"Which is a yesss."

"I hate you." She said shaking her head and laughing.

"I love you, too."

"Tony, Kevin, glad you guys took me up on my offer." Mason said letting them in the warehouse and looking around outside before he closed the door behind them.

Antonio and Atwater followed Mason deeper into the warehouse looking and hearing for any sign of the kids. "So, we're going to be watching some cargo or something?" Antonio asked.

"Oh, very precious cargo." He answered smirking. "Follow me."

The two detectives glanced at each other before following him down a dark hallway.

"How long is the job?"

"Just a couple of hours. All you have to do is stand outside this door." He said stopping in front of a door that was bolted from ceiling to floor. "Don't let anything go in or come out."

"That's it?" Antonio asked.

Mason nodded. "Yup. I have to search you guys and then I'll be leaving for about hour. We have another, uh, shipment coming in that I have to pick up."

They both spread their legs and raised their arms. They wanted this to go as smooth as possible, because they both had a feeling the kids were behind this door.

He quickly patted them both down and was satisfied with not finding anything, especially a wire. "There's no service around here, so I hope you don't try to text on the job."

"We know better, boss." Atwater said.

"This guy is a real idiot." Erin said on the walkie talkie. "Is everyone in position?"

"The idiots are always my favorite criminals. Makes the job a lot easier." Carisi said.

"Yeah, we're in position. The kids' safety is our main priority, guys." Olivia reminded them.

"I'm trusting you guys. If anything happens to the cargo, you guys are dead." He said with all seriousness in his voice. He walked away.

"He's coming out." Hank said in the walkie talkie. "Get ready."

They all adjusted their vests and had their guns drawn. SWAT was already around the door ready to grab him as soon as he walked out of the door. There was no way this could go wrong.

Mason walked out of the building with a small smile on his face, but was grabbed by Dodds and throw to the ground. "You're under arrest." He threw the handcuffs on him.

Before they could finished apprehending Mason, there was shots that came from behind them. Fin turned and immediately shot at two of the men. Another car pulled up and the squad all took cover behind a car.

Antonio and Atwater heard all the shooting and knew they had to get the kids now. They both started kicking and running into the door and finally got it open. There were the nine kids, all scared, obviously suffering from dehydration and lack of vitamin D.

"Hey, we're police officers." Atwater said in a soft voice. "We're here to save you."

Erin stood up from her kneeling position to take another shot at the criminals. She wasn't paying attention to anything behind her, but Olivia was a few feet away, and saw another suspect approaching her.

He cocked and aimed his gun at Erin.

Olivia yelled out. "No!" As she jumped in front of the bullet.

I love you guys!
