Christian
They've rushed Ana off leaving me stuck in the hallway alone. They've sedated her, they had to as in the ambulance she became violent and aggressive when the EMT tried to examine her and give her some oxygen. I've never seen Ana like that, she was like a wild animal and whatever she was seeing in her mind's eye was horrifying because her mind wasn't in that ambulance with us.
My Mom has Amaya in the paediatrics ward and I've been told that she's fine and that she will be just fine when she wakes though she's likely to sleep for a few more hours. That's good, I want to be there when she wakes but I know my wife needs me too, my Ana.
What the fuck happened to her? I don't understand what the hell happened. I cannot wrap my head around any of this.
"Mr Grey?"
I spin on my heels to face three people. They look official and important. What the fuck do they want? My wife is being treated for God knows what at the minute and I'm not in the mood to talk to anyone.
"Yes." I growl threateningly.
"Hi my name is Melissa Daniels, this is Detective Lorraine Meadows and Detective Tyler Rhodes. We work in SPD's Sexual Assault and Child Abuse unit. I'm a victim advocate and I've been assigned to your wife's case."
I look at them horrified. Sexual Assault? Child Abuse? What the fuck?
"My wife was sexually assaulted?" I ask my voice trembling.
"We don't know that for certain Mr Grey, we were called in when the on scene officers found that your wife was naked." Melissa Daniels explains as she tucks a lock of auburn hair behind her ear. "Mr Grey, I'd like to speak with you alone briefly, explain my job to you before I meet your wife."
"Of course." I reply, I don't know what else to do, I feel like I've just been hit over by a steam roller.
Melissa Daniels guides me over to some uncomfortable looking blue plastic seats and I sit down beside her. I don't say nothing and keep my eyes on my hands unable to comprehend that my wife may have been sexually assaulted.
"Mr Grey…"
"Call my Christian." I don't want formalities here, not with this, I can't bare it…
"Christian, as a victim advocate it will be my job to prepare your wife…"
"Ana…"
"Ana, prepare Ana to make her statement to the police, I will also sit in on the rape kit if she consents to having one, I will basically hold her hand through this whole process until the end that includes going to court and everything. I will be responsible for her emotional support network as an outside advisor, being a person who isn't immediate family that she can tell all too if she wants. I am a support, I don't work for the police I work with them as a sound board between the victim and the police. Do you understand?" She's got an angelic voice, soft, caring, she reminds me a little of Ana actually.
"Yeah I understand." I say quietly, what else can I say?
"So I was hoping you'd let me go in and introduce myself to Ana alone, explain to her my job and then find out a little about what happened and where to go from here. Once she's ready then the police will need to do a statement but that won't be until she's ready."
"Ok." I can tell that this woman is completely on Ana's side, that she will wait for Ana to be ready to talk to the police. I don't like the thought of Ana dealing with her alone but somehow I know this woman is talking from experience, she knows Ana will open up to her more without me there and somehow I know that I have to trust her.
"Good, ok, the police will need statements from everyone who was on the scene I believe you were there at some point." She looks at my bloodied knuckles and I manage a small nod. "Ok then can you organise all that, give the names to the police and so on while I go and find out if Ana's available to talk?" It's like she knows I need something to control and she's giving me just that.
"Ok." I say quietly.
"Ok." She smiles reassuringly and takes my hands to give them a squeeze. "From the little I know about your wife Christian, she's a strong woman and whatever she's been through she'll get through it, I'll support her but she needs your support too." She says getting to her feet. I finally allow my eyes to meet hers and they have a small sadness to them that I didn't expect. I give her a curt nod and she takes it as her dismissal and wonders off, it doesn't take long for the two detectives to arrive in front of me.
"Mr Grey, we'll need to take your statement, we'd also like the names of anyone else who was on the premises at any time, we have a children's advocate who is waiting to meet you to talk to your daughter. I know she's young but we will need some form of statement from her but we do have experts who will work with her…"
"Please don't traumatise my baby anymore." I whisper tears brimming in my eyes.
"We won't Mr Grey but we do need to know if any harm came to her." The female Detective, Meadows I believe, says.
"Ok." I nod my voice a tense whisper. "Now what?"
"Let's start with everyone who was on the premises, we'll need to interview them all and have other detectives on standby to decrease the time this will take."
"Ok Jack Hyde, Jason Taylor, Luke Sawyer, my wife… my daughter…" My voice shakes and I have to squeeze the edge of my eyes to hold back my tears. "and Simon Reynolds."
"Are they available to talk to our team?"
"Yes they're on their way here." I say hoping I'm right because Jack Hyde has some explaining to do.
"Ok. That's good, now can you tell us what happened from your point?"
"I was tracking my wife's car and cell phone, something was off about her and with our daughter missing she was running around without security, it's not that I don't trust her it's I don't trust everyone else. I was too caught up looking for Amaya to be too strict on security. Luke Sawyer was monitoring her and I called her when I saw she was on a ferry, she said she was fine she was driving around clearing her head a little and I guess looking out for our baby…" I squeeze my hands closed in tight fist and release them hoping to release some of the tension. "Less than an hour had gone by and I got a phone call from Jack Hyde, he said that Ana was in trouble, he sounded so panicked and I knew he wasn't kidding me so I got my security to get her exact location and we jumped in the cars. When we got there we heard a gunshot, we couldn't move fast enough. In the house we found that man shot bleeding on the floor, my wife naked with our daughter in her arms and Jack Hyde crouching beside her… who is he?"
"We don't have any details on him yet, he was rushed straight into surgery with the GSW to the abdomen."
"That's all I can tell you. You might be better of talking to Jack Hyde, he knows more than me…"
"Mr Grey." I look up to the eyes of security guard and he gives me a tense nod, behind him Jack Hyde stands looking like a lost fucking puppy.
"You are?"
"Jason Taylor head of security, this is Jack Hyde."
"Oh right well we'll talk to Mr Hyde next then." Detective Meadows said and Hyde looked terrified.
