The reviews for the first chapter has been amazing, thank you very much. It seems I'm not the only one who's doing a story about the terrifying season finale. I've read some of them so far and they are GOOD. I hope my story will be just as good as the others. I have some twists and turns concerning Olivia and 'The Beast' and what happens within the next couple of chapters will leave you hanging by a thread.
So, in order to do that, I'm extending my story a little bit longer because I don't see an ending right away. Oh, and a huge tragedy will also take place as the story rolls along. Keep a lookout for it soon.
Enjoy and happy reading!
Lots of love, hugs and kisses from your resident writer and friend, Nina!

By the time Olivia woke up, she didn't know where she was at first. She tried sitting up in bed, but her back was sore as hell and she looked like she's been drugged. She blinked for a few seconds before her vision finally became clear. She quickly realized that she was in the hospital, recovering from one hell of a nightmarish night.
How she got there? She didn't know. All she remembered was being held captive by that maniac William Lewis the night before, but she managed to fend him off before he could do any serious damage. The two ended up in an intense stand off in her bedroom; both of them with their guns pointed at one another. She also remembered him approaching her with a sinister look on his face and her closing her eyes and realizing that she couldn't find another way out of this terrifying situation.
So, when the hail of gunfire emitted from her apartment, she knew that when it was all said and done, one of them would end up dead.
Olivia allowed fresh tears to form in her brown eyes as she leaned back against the bed and let out a frustrated sigh. Though she was laying in the hospital with a bullet hole in her stomach, the usually tough as nails detective became a broken shell of a woman. She still couldn't comprehend how that sick bastard managed to break into her apartment; much less waiting for her when she got home. She covered her tear stained face in her hands and proceeded to sob quietly.
It's been five years since her sexual assault in Sealview and she had been struggling to put it behind her. Now, after being held in her apartment and nearly losing her life, she realized that her assault back at that prison was child's play compared to what she's going through now.
How the hell is she gonna keep this secret from the people she works with? Can she even trust anyone to help her, protect her, comfort her anymore? More importantly, can she even allow herself to seek any kind of love and support from them? Knowing how heavily guarded she is with her personal and professional life, Olivia didn't see the point in confiding in anymore; not even her boyfriend Brian Cassidy can help her.
A knock on her door snapped her out of her trance. She quickly wiped her face with her hands and managed to regain her composure when Captain Cragen and her partner Nick Amaro appeared a moment later.
"How are you feeling, Liv?" Cragen asked as he took a seat by her bedside and grabbed her hand gently.
She gave him a grim smile. "Like I was ran over by a mat truck, but I'll live. How did I end up here in the first place?"
Nick sighed deeply. "A neighbor heard loud shouting and the gunshots coming out of your apartment, so she called 911. You were found on the floor in your bedroom with a gunshot wound to your stomach. William Lewis was also found on the floor with gunshot wounds to his shoulder and stomach."
"Well, at least I put him out of commission for a while," Olivia said, trying to lighten the mood.
"Liv, you know you're gonna have to talk to a shrink about this. You can't keep this bottled up. What happened in your apartment is not your fault," Cragen said, pressing on and squeezing her hand gently.
She shook her head and allowed more tears to form in her eyes. "I-I can't. The press is gonna have a field day with this."
"Liv, there's no telling what would've happened if you didn't trust your instincts and got your back up gun. We all know William Lewis is the devil incarnate. Look what he did to Alice Parker. She's dead thanks to him," Nick reminded her, looking grim.
"I know that, Nick. Speaking of William, where is he?" Olivia asked, looking a little bit petrified.
"He's recovering from his wounds in the infirmary at Rikers. The DA's gonna go hard on him; breaking and entering, false imprisonment, attempted rape and attempted murder. Barba's doing everything he can to make sure Lewis goes away for a long time," Cragen said, patting his hand on her shoulder gently.
"Which means I'm gonna have to see him again in court. Son of a bitch. I should've just emptied my clip and be done with it," she growled angrily.
Nick gave her a small smile. "Believe me, I want to do the same thing, but he won't be bothering you for a long while."
"Where's Fin and Amanda? Aren't they with you?" Olivia asked, trying to sit up again.
"No, they're back at your apartment along with CSU; examining the crime scene. You know I'm gonna need to take your statement soon," Cragen said, looking at her with a worried look on his face.
"Can we do this some other time? Right now, I'm tired," she said, laying back down on the bed and trying to get comfortable.
"Liv, please don't shut us out. What happened is not your fault," Nick said, trying to assure her.
"I know. Go and see when I can go back home to my apartment. I'm not gonna let the maniac ruin my life any longer. I'll make a statement tomorrow," she said as sleep finally claimed her.
Cragen and Amaro walked out of the hospital room, both of them with somber looks on their faces.
"Why is she acting like this? Don't she know we're here for her?" Nick asked, huffing angrily.
"I know and she knows that, too. Olivia doesn't want to be treated differently, which is why she keeps her emotions bottled up a lot. All we can do right now is be a strong support system for her. When she's ready to talk, we'll be ready to listen," Cragen explained as the duo made their way out of the hospital.
"I hope so, Cap. Because she doesn't need to deal with this on her own," Nick said, sighing deeply.
As they walked out of the hospital, Olivia laid in her hospital bed, a single tear falling from her eye. She just wished that the nightmare would be over so that she can be able to live her life.
Little did she know, the nightmare of being held captive in her own home was far from over.

"William Lewis got in through the window. He must've used a crowbar to crack the window open," Amanda said, pointing to the window that was indeed cracked open. Not long after Olivia was taken to the hospital to be treated for her injuries, Fin and Amanda stayed behind and decided to assist CSUs to collect enough evidence to nail this sick bastard. For one, they were not only doing it for Olivia, but they were also doing it for any other victim who had been denied justice.
Fin took it personally because anyone who messes with his 'baby girl' will have to deal with him. However, and so far, William Lewis scared the hell out of everyone at the one six, not just Olivia. The man has managed to weasel his way out of every single legal maneuver known to man and he has managed to stay one step ahead of the seasoned detectives. Now, for him to target Olivia? That's taking it to the extreme.
"Liv was about to go into the living room to cut the lights on when he came from around the corner and pointed the gun right at her," he chimed in, looking around the living room.
"He grabbed her around her waist and threw her down on the sofa; then he pounced right on top of her to cut off her chances to escape," Amanda said, pointing to the couch. A couple pillows were scattered on the floor.
"Liv managed to fend him off by knocking him down to the floor. He grabbed her ankles as she was trying to get to her bedroom and tripped her down on the floor. But, she managed to kick him in his face, breaking his nose in the process. There's a small amount of blood over by the recliner to prove it," he said, pointing to the recliner and sure enough, a small pint of blood resided right next to it. Fin signaled a CSU tech to take a swab of the blood off the floor.
"She finally goes into her room, closed the door, pushed the dresser against it, then she grabbed her back up revolver underneath her bed and waited. Lewis finally managed to break it open. That's where the shooting happened," Amanda said, sighing deeply.
"Detectives, you need to take a look at this," another CSU tech called out to the duo. Shrugging their shoulders, Fin and Amanda went into the bedroom to see what's going on.
"Find something?" Fin asked as soon as he walked in.
"Yeah. We found semen on the comforter. Looks like your perp masturbated on the bed and ejaculated on the sheets. We found fingerprints on her underwear drawer. He sorted through them and found a pair of blue satin boy shorts. He also ejaculated on them," the same CSU tech said as she handed over the evidence bag, which contained the panties over to Fin, who had a disgusted look on his face.
"Liv's not gonna want to come back to her apartment once we tell her what he had done," Amanda said, looking angry.
"Just what kind of sick monster we're dealing with here?" Fin huffed angrily as they walked out of the bedroom.
They would soon find out that William Lewis' reign of terror was just getting started.
Again.

Nursing a broken nose and gunshot wounds on his shoulder and stomach, William Lewis was angry that he ended up here. He was supposed to torture Olivia, have his way with her and then leave, but no, she just had to fight back and even put him out of commission for a while. He will not spend another night in this hell hole.
He bides his time. All he has to do is to be more careful and methodical and then he'll get what he wants from her. And, then, he'll make sure that she'll never be able to take another breath again. She'll be begging him to kill her when he gets through with her.
Smiling sadistically, William leaned back against the lumpy mattress and mentally started plotting his next move. He licked his lips hungrily at the thought of having Olivia in his clutches again; doing whatever he wanted to do to her until defeat finally etched on her face.
He knows where she lives and where she works, so she can't hide from him, no matter where she goes and what she does. He'll never leave her alone. He'll always be in her head, even if he's dead.
If Olivia thought she had seen the end of William Lewis a.k.a The Beast, she's in for one rude awakening.
And death will be knocking at her door.
Coming up in the next chapter: Brian Cassidy visits Olivia in the hospital, not realizing the danger lurking nearby. The team learns that William has jumped bail and is in the wind, causing them to go into high alert. And, Olivia makes her statement, not knowing the tragic consequences to follow. Will the brunette detective have to endure another broken heart? Stay tuned!
